In Episode 2, Belle Lablac continues her journey to discover her origins and identity. She recalls how she emerged from a rock as a child and wonders where she truly comes from. During her search, Belle encounters a young Rabbitia, a symbol of luck, and offers them a drink before moving on.
Belle returns to Park City and is quickly recognized as an outsider by the locals. At the Amaretto, a local tavern, she meets Haggis, the owner, who explains the strict divide between the "Topdogs" and the "Underdogs" in the city. Belle reveals her intention to become a nomad, but Haggis warns her that God would never allow it.
During the conversation, Belle has a dark memory of a murder she committed, though the details remain hazy. Suddenly, she gets into a conflict with a group of young men who have captured a Rabbitia. Belle intervenes and destroys their swords, only to realize that she herself bears a curse that hinders her combat abilities.
Belle is rescued by Gaff, a top soloist and former student of Sian Enola. Gaff helps her secure an audience with the king. During this audience, Belle learns that she can only embark on her journey after forming a contract with the king. The king, who appears in both benevolent and malevolent forms, challenges Belle to a trial to test her skills as a swordfighter.
Belle must face Kir Royale, one of the king’s four champions, with whom she shares a past.
