Summary[]
In space, transcendentals fire near some moons, and Maruna notes that none of them are hitting him. He asks Samphati if it is because their difference in power is so great now, or if she recognized him and is unwilling to fight seriously.
In a flashback to the Sura realm in N5, Maruna defeats a Taraka clan sura, comments that the Gandharva clan must be in a terrible state if Tarakas have ventured so far, and criticizes Samphati for going off on her own.
Samphati points out that Maruna's training is finished and draws attention to the fact that he had just developed to 4th stage. The Taraka sura had not been dead yet and attempts to attack, only for Samphati to kill it. She suggests that Maruna did not finish it off on purpose because it was from his brother's clan and emphasizes that rakshasas like them are not permitted to have such compassion.
Back in the current timeline, Samphati repeats her speech about not being allowed to have compassion and being forced to obey superiors. Maruna questions this creed and speaks of how Akasha gave him the Pledge Token. In surprise, Samphati tells Maruna that this could not have been Akasha, for she perished seven years ago. Samphati further highlights the dangers of the Eye of Perishment and asks for an explanation.
Maruna questions if he can trust Samphati. She then reveals that Taraka's original soul was released 7 years ago and replaced by another soul. This soul was unable to handle the Taraka name, a fact that allowed "those who were not completely dead" to recover their minds. She then specified that this soul belonged to the human that died 7 years ago at the exact same time as Taraka.
Siera stands over some snowy mountains and ponders about the significance of human souls. He predicts that the soul of the one whom he knew as the Priestess of Chaos for decades will be sacrificed no matter the outcome and says goodbye to her.
Following a scene in which Gandharva atop Kasak's head is fighting against Taraka, there is a flashback to N16 in which Hura is telling Gandharva how to ensure Teo's resurrection via Hoti Visnu. They ask if what happens to the original soul matters to Gandharva, he answers negatively.

(pic 1: Maruna and Samphati) The right stance to use for killing mosquitos
It's gotten a lot colder, but why are there so many mosquitos? If there's one around while I'm finishing up the episode, it's really annoying. Especially if they bite the right fingers... Ahhh!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!
(pic 2: Samphati) No beautification here
So she's not any prettier than she actually is. But the fact that the background has changed from a bloody sky to white halo... hmm...
(pic 3: Siera) I brought along some flowers the author would dislike drawing
Where did Sierra find those flowers? How diligent... Well, I guess it's a bit of an issue that he's not at the temples where he should be...
(pic 4: Taraka and Kasak) Shess has been edited out.
There's no point to add him here, and I thought he would just be distracting. He's still around because if you see, there are no small fries around Taraka. Shess is probably fighting them.
Notes[]
- The soul Samphati is referring to is that of the original Teo Rakan
- Among the suras who were able to regain their mind, we can see Urvasi
- The flashback to Hura is a continuation of the scene in Episode 3-86
