In the latest episode of "Hikari no Ou," Touko and Kira reunite in the capital. Touko has gotten lost and is being chased by a guard when Kira approaches her and notices she’s crying. Kira offers Touko something to eat and asks about her situation. Touko explains that she and Kanata were pursued by a stranger with a club. Kira assures Touko that the guards only chase people who’ve done something wrong and offers to show her the way home. Touko mentions that Kanata seems to remember the way, and Kira asks him to be a good guide for Touko.
Meanwhile, Koushi and Yuoshichi discuss their plan to defend the city against an impending invasion without being detected by spies. Koushi believes that the sky fire is strongest when it falls as lightning from the sky, and he needs Prince Roroku’s help to bury the lightning strikes in the palace and factory district. Yuoshichi is skeptical of the plan and wonders how they’ll deliver the lightning to the target, but Koushi is confident it will work.
In another scene, Touko asks Akira about her plan to write a letter on Muku paper and deliver it to the palace. But Akira explains that Shouzou isn’t out of danger yet, and she can’t leave until he’s safe. Kaho reveals that she wants to marry Shouzou and stay by his side, even if he never wakes up.
Later, Touko decides to return to Kanata’s house to bring him back to his family. Koushi, Kanata’s owner, meets Touko and Kanata and tells them that his father, a fire hunter, saved Touko’s life. Touko apologizes and explains that the hunter died and she has brought back his sickle and protective stone. Koushi is grateful for Kanata’s return and says he thought his father had abandoned them, but now he knows he died helping someone.
Finally, Touko and Koushi talk about the looming danger in the capital, and Koushi reveals that there will soon be a battle against the spiders, who use real fire. Touko remembers that the tree people have friends in the capital who might have medicine for Mr. Shouzou, so she tries to follow one of them. Koushi offers to take Touko to the forbidden district if she gives him information about the spider fire. They set off together, but Koushi warns Touko that they must be careful not to be spotted by another spy.
