The Jinx's production are going as planned but are taking longer and longer to destroy the Thanatos. Angelique sees Nyx tending to a flower bed where he is sowing flower seeds. He tells her every time he has tried in the past, they wither before they bloom. He remarks, "It's as if these hands snatch away the life of the flowers." Angelique reassures him that one day the flowers will bloom. Meanwhile Rayne is investigating about the Jinx and learns about the difficulties they've been having exterminating the Thanatos. Bernard as well as Roche are checking out another town destroyed during Jinx's fight with Thanatos, trying to gather information and interviews for an article. Roche reveals from a witness that the Jinx were actually destroyed in the fight and the Thanatos destroyed the town before being killed by the Silver Knights. The Foundation said they would rebuild the town if the residents kept quiet about the incident. Nyx takes Angelique to a ball due to Angelique hoping the event will cheer him up. While at the ball, a Thanatos appears and some questions are raised about Nyx's past when they meet an old man who claims to be a friend of Nyx's grandfather.
