Ép. 22: Homura pleure la mort de Valkyrie tandis que Shiki affronte Kurenai pour sa trahison

22

In a flashback ten years in the past, Valkyrie raises an orphaned Homura on the planet Oedo, where their relationship faces disapproval from natives who are prejudiced against machines. Five years into her training, Homura is formally reprimanded for attacking a magistrate's son in Valkyrie's defense. The magistrate convinces Valkyrie that Homura needs her biological mother, who is revealed to be Kurenai. Finding Kurenai enslaved at Sun Jewel's labor district, Valkyrie takes her place in debt so that Kurenai may reunite with Homura. Two years later, Valkyrie learns that Kurenai has since remained on Sun Jewel and usurped the planet's previous ruler, having originally abandoned Homura. After Kurenai provokes a horde of Stones into attacking the district, Valkyrie perishes slaying the horde to defend the other laborers. Back in the present, Homura finds her teacher's remains and is devastated when Pino confirms that Valkyrie is beyond repair. Shiki consoles Homura and leaves her to grieve while he confronts Kurenai, resolving to bring her to Homura for judgement in Valkyrie's stead. (Source: Wikipedia)
