Shōji's memory of the past continues. He named his daughter Éléonore and the birth of the baby caused Guy to be conflicted over whether to remove the Soft Stone from Angelina. Meanwhile, Francine wanted to be dismantled because she could not fulfill her purpose to smile and felt that she was missing a vital gear. She and Guy were both affected by the birth of Éléonore and the happiness she brought. Suddenly, automata surrounded the house searching for the Soft Stone, but when Francine ordered them to leave they did not recognize her and attacked. Angelina revealed that the Soft Stone was now inside Éléonore and she entrusted the baby to Francine who escaped. Francine was chased and heavily damaged by some of the automata. She fell into a well with Éléonore who automatically who turned the water into Aqua Vitae which began to consume Francine. Back at the house, Angelina fought the automata with Shōji and Guy while pretending to have the Soft Stone inside her. However, Angelina was mortally wounded by the automata and being both human and shirogane, she crystallized as she died. Shōji continued to fight while Guy followed Francine and he arrived at the well where he realized that Francine had given her life to save Éléonore. (Source: Wikipedia)
