As the war continues, the castle holding Shana takes considerable damage, and when a blast traps her, she is unable to move for a short while. She gets up through sheer will alone, fighting her weakness as an ordinary human girl, and struggles her way to Nietono no Shana. Tenmoku Ikko reappears, slaying one Denizen after another as he tries to find his master Shana, and attacks Tempest Hoof Fecor. He finds Shana, breaks her free from the chain that sealed her powers and is finally ready to battle.
