Ep. 26: Heinz confronts Lloyd's galactic control scheme while Walküre frees Mikumo from mental enslavement

Following the destruction of the 47th Special Fleet, the conflict on Ragna intensifies between Chaos and the Kingdom of Windermere. Heinz considers peace negotiations with N.U.N.S. while Lloyd manipulates Mikumo on the Star Stage to broadcast the Song of the Stars across the Brisingr Cluster. Heinz discovers Lloyd’s true aim is total galactic domination. As the song entralls both sides, Heinz commands the Aerial Knights to attack Lloyd while Freyja attempts to break the spell. The mutual affection among Hayate, Freyja, and Mirage allows Chaos and the Aerial Knights to resist the mental hold. Walküre’s combined power frees Mikumo from Lloyd’s influence, enabling both factions to breach the Star Stage. Hayate, Mirage, and Freyja rescue Mikumo, after which Keith terminates Lloyd and perishes in the resulting explosion. Heinz subsequently orders the remaining Windermerean troops to withdraw, ending their control over the Brisingr cluster.
