In this episode, Laura experiences flashbacks of her past as a streetfighter when she goes to the underground terrace on a mysterious mission paid for by Ascendant's leader to deliver a package to a streetfighting champion. Meanwhile, the three mercenary students receive their first lesson from Sovereign's master of energy, Shannon. Shaun seems to be a natural and gets an easy day out of it while his friends struggle. Kyle undergoes stress as Melissa is unconscious. Later, he realizes that though he always acts out of concern for his guild family, the outcome is not always what he expects. It seems the fearless Sovereign commander may have lost his perfection as a leader.

I hope you can tell the passing of time throughout the day by the lighting. :) It should go from morning to day to evening to night to early morning. Sorry that everything kind of goes a little fast ... Since my Vegas/computer are really laggy, it looks like decent speed when I playback. :( Also, as a clarifier, the band that Laura was wearing when Kyle grabbed her hand was supposed to be an entrance band to the underground streetfighting terrace, but I never made that clear.

***The scene would have looked a lot cooler with a lot more, but unfortunately I'm not in contact with a lot of Flash animators haha. :(

Thank you to those of you who watched my Sovereign livestreaming. Special thanks to Richard and NGA for the help and resources! And also a very special thanks to Drew for being the coolest kid ever helping me with Sovereign and teaching me how to do things and stuff. f2 Thanks to all my fans for all the support~


NEXT EPISODE... 6 | Everything is Not What it Seems
The script calls for a very, very, very long episode for this one, so don't expect it to be out anytime soon! I estimate one battle scene, the return of Oscar and Belle, and some more Kyle angst, haha.

how come Laura didn't want to tell Kyle that she went to the terrace ?

[xPwahaha]

@iiPieeeX well technically when mercenary's receive a job, it should remain confidential. also, she didn't want Kyle to know she went back to the place he saved her from :p kyle was hurt when he found out because she thought Laura was unhappy in Sovereign and wanted to go back to her old streetfighting ways
