The episode takes place in the fortified town of Waal in the Riegel Gorge. Frieren and Fern are accompanied by Stark, a warrior and apprentice of Heiter, who was also Fern’s guardian. Stark is known as a hero of his village, a title that makes him uncomfortable because he never actually fought the dragon that threatened the area. He admits that his courage is shaky and that the scar on his forehead comes from training with his master, not from battling a monster.
Stark, Frieren, and Fern decide to confront the dragon, which poses a threat. Stark is full of doubts but is encouraged by Frieren, who shares her own experience of fear during her first encounter with a monster. They attack the dragon, and Stark finds his resolve, successfully defeating it.
During the battle, flashbacks show conversations between Stark and his old friend Eisen, emphasizing the importance of fear as a motivator. Stark realizes that his master, like Eisen, was driven by fear and that fear is not a weakness but a form of strength.
After the dragon is defeated, the trio discovers a mountain full of treasures. Stark is thrilled, but Frieren limits them to taking only three items. They also enjoy shaved ice, a treat that stirs memories in Stark and ends their journey on a cheerful note.
Stark decides to continue traveling with Frieren and Fern, inspired by the "ridiculous and fun journey" his master once took with Frieren. The episode ends with their arrival at a checkpoint leading to the northern lands, which are currently closed due to monster activity. However, thanks to Frieren’s reputation, they are granted passage, setting the stage for their next adventure.
