Children of the Whales

Chakuro's peaceful life on the Mud Whale is interrupted by the appearance of another island. When they investigate, he finds a girl living there.

The rebellious Ouni takes Chakuro and Lykos back to her island. She explains that she's an Apátheia, a soldier who's lost her emotions.

The Mud Whale is invaded by the ruthless and mysterious troops of the "Empire." Using magic, Ouni and some of the others begin fighting back.

After naming Suou the new mayor of the Mud Whale, the elders tells him some secrets. Chakuro has a disturbing vision when he meets Neri.

The committee orders the vigilantes to attack the Nous, which Lykos says is the Mud Whale's heart. The island shakes while Ouni fights Shuan.

The Mud Whale's magic users begin training to use their skills in combat as part of Suou's defense plan, but not everyone is happy with his decision.
