As the group travel on the Swan, it is not long until trouble occurs when Ceres is attacked by bandits. Kenshi goes to aid Ceres, only to be constricted with Ceres from a Seikishi reactor. However, something changes inside Kenshi where he cannot forgive those who hurt Ceres and half of the white Seikijin becomes black, where he then compresses the reactor and launches it elsewhere. Kenshi attacks the hideout while Ceres, Chiaia, and Aura rescue Hazuki. Kenshi goes berserk and takes out all the Seikijin while hurting himself in the process and giving Dagmyer a traumatic experience. Ceres and Hazuki later join the Swan, and Kenshi and the group make their way to the Barrier Workshop to see Naua Fuan, Chiaia's father. Naua briefs them on the history of Seikijin, Seikishi and the Seikishin. Naua also refers to Mexiah and the forgotten warrior (referring to Kenshi), but is unable to tell them about Kenshi. As Doll and the bandits come, they manage to escape and Doll/Mexiah finds out from her father about Kenshi.
