Chapter 0-3

Tarik
Months have passed since the encounter with Scarlet. The temple is attacked in the night. Guards of the Island's local Warlord swarm the premises. Satra promptly rises to defend her home.

Hazu reveals that it was he who caused the guards to attack. He encountered the monster in her basement she is harboring. Satra tells him that she thought she taught him humility and to be humble; the world once cast him out for thinking he was a monster.

Satra ordered Tarik to flee to the basement and save Atalanta. She is slain defending her home and what happens to the rest of the students is unknown. Tarik runs with Hazu and an Officer chasing him down. Tarik finds a scared Atalanta cowering behind a barrel. She struggles as she thinks he is an enemy but he manages to take her through a portal that opens beside them; Satra's dying act.

The two quickly find a nearby village as they become acquainted. Her personality is naive as she is unfamiliar with the world. He is taken back by her animal ears and green hair. Atalanta huddles herself in an uncomfortable manner. Tarik goes into the village alone to buy her a cloak, returning to give it to her less than an hour later. Atalanta reveals to him that she is a Sprite and she hates how she looks. She wants to be human.

They barely afford to pay for a night's stay at a Hotel. When Tarik returns to the room he finds it torn but with claw marks across the wallpaper and bed. It is her first time seeing either of those things.

May 7th, 334
The next morning they go to the markets and encounter a Jeweler. Tarik barters and spends the last of his money on a gem for Atalanta. The Jeweler sees something unusual under her hood and screams, calling her a Yokai. Her hood comes off and they swiftly flee. Guards chase them and they are eventually detained by a hooded soldier. He takes the hood off, revealing himself. The Man with the Scarlet hair

Scarlet easily bests Tarik. Azure intervenes to stop the fight, saving Tarik's life. Tarik pleads to be taken as long as they don't hurt Atalanta. He is naive.

After making it to a warehouse, Tarik watches as they lock her up in a mysterious device that appears to be killing her. He calls upon his magic to shatter the glass cage with shards of ice. It explodes. Azure rises from the rubble and hands Lambda to Tarik within an ATRAP device.
