With the wind on their face, flying high above the ground, the party of three flew to the alliance meeting between the Sylphs and Catsiths. Left with no other option but to party along with the alliance raid army, the single-horned swordsman and his two Sylph companions race through the air, or as fast as his controller allows him.

Leafa: I bet we'll make it on- ...do you guys see that?

Recon: T-That's a Salamander attack squad! Are they planning to ambush the alliance meeting?! That's roughly 70 players down there!

Sakuya: Leafa? What's the meaning of this? What's happening?
Leafa: We'll explain later. For now, we wait and see.
