Episode Title:
The Turning Wheel.
Episode Description:
On Earth, Count Mazuurek is imprisoned by the UFE while Yuki and Marito reunite with their comrades from the Deucalion. Inaho reveals to Doctor Yagarai that he customized the software on his cybernetic left eye, and Yagarai comments that it may lead to brain problems down the road, warning against further modification of the eye. Later, Inaho interrogates Mazuurek, managing to find some common ground with him regarding Princess Asseylum, as both share the belief that Asseylum is being impersonated. That night, Inaho and Rayet sneak Mazuurek out of the UFE base and into the desert, offering him a chance to get back home under the conditions that he find the real Asseylum and determine Slaine's real objective. Inko witnesses Inaho's actions, but chooses not to report it, hoping that Inaho knows what he is doing. Meanwhile, at the Vers' Moon base, Count Marylcian initiates a private conversation with Lemrina (disguised as Asseylum) and states that she is caged bird. Marylcian then personally arrives at the station, unwilling to forgive Slaine for being a Terran, and formally challenges Slaine to a duel for the honor of being the faux Asseylum's Royal Guard.
