Synopsis

Gale receives supplies from Maia and prepares to leave for Count Chase's estate to begin the search for Yuda, where he meets Lady Ardelia, who will accompany them. Elsewhere, Cordelia and Edwards find a potentially powerful relic at a low-key auction and try to bid on it before others realize its value. The chapter sets up two separate plot threads that will likely converge later, introducing the search for Yuda and the hunt for a mysterious item.
