Rio and Latifa have entered a forest in the Wilderness. While she's sleeping, they're surrounded by a band of what appear to be demi-humans. The girls reveal themselves to be People of the Spirits. Rio tries to talk things out with them, but Uzuma, a winged beast person, finds Latifa and assumes that Rio has abducted her. Uzuma swoops down on Rio without giving him a chance to explain. Her sudden attack renders Rio unconscious. In his dreams, a beautiful girl with pink blonde hair appears to him as well as Amakawa Hayato's childhood friend, Ayase Miharu.
But for now, everyone, 
please raise your heads.
.لكن حاليا، أرجو أن ترفعن رؤوسكن
Bitte hebt erst einmal eure Häupter.
Levanten la cabeza, por favor.
Levantad la cabeza, por favor.
Relevez-vous, je vous prie.
Per ora, però, vorrei che vi alzaste da terra.
Por enquanto, levantem
as cabeças, por favor.
Девочки, встаньте, пожалуйста.
