I have seen death; it holds no mystery for me. Only my pursuit matters.

Plot

Main articles: Revelations/Script and Revelations/Conversations

Inside the villa in Tanas, Mist is excited to finally be able to sleep indoors for once. Soren suggests that the villa had been abandoned ever since its owner, Duke Oliver, was found guilty of trading heron slaves. Despite the seeming abandonment, Ike and Titania find the villa nearly spotless, suggesting there is someone still living in it. Elsewhere within the villa, Rafiel senses that they are being watched, and alerts Nailah of this.

Suddenly, the Disciples of Order appear in the outer villa. Rafiel then alerts Ike that their friends are in trouble; as they move further in, they find Tormod, Muarim, and Vika fighting for their lives against the Disciples. The army then begins clearing the villa of the Disciple invaders. Surprisingly, Duke Oliver survived the previous war, and is instructed by Duke Hetzel not to fail the senate again, and then promptly leaves.

After Ike's crew clears out the villa, Hetzel warps in to find it completely devoid of Disciples. Rafiel recognizes him, and Hetzel attempts to make amends with him, saying that he was against the Serenes Massacre the whole time, but warns him against going to the Tower of Guidance, and then warps away. Rafiel then states that he owes his life to Hetzel. Afterwards, Ike meets with Tormod, who explains that he had a dream telling him to go to the Tower of Guidance after the initial judgment occurred. Ike surmises that the dream was Yune's doing.

Later, after Rafiel has rested, Ike meets with him at night. Rafiel explains that Hetzel had won custody of him during an auction briefly before the Serenes Massacre, having spent much of his fortune to do so. Moved by Rafiel, Hetzel spent many days nursing him back to health in a temple. Rafiel could sense that Hetzel was being truly honest in his endeavour, so he gave Hetzel his trust, until the Serenes Massacre occurred and he sensed the deaths nearly every heron. The next time Rafiel laid in the temple, he was overcome by shock, and later awoke in the desert, greeted by Nailah. Ike then muses about how the surviving herons have changed, with Reyson and Leanne being much stronger-willed than what is typical for the clan. Rafiel then begins to see the chaos in them as part of their strength, and considers that a balance of order and chaos is most important for the world.

Beginning log

Prince Kurthnaga tells of the connection between Daein and the dragon tribes. Ranulf reveals the identity of the Black Knight. These revelations send Ike's mind spinning in a whirlpool of confusion and doubt. Ike becomes convinced that the answers to all his questions lie within the Tower of Guidance, and he is determined to reach the tower at any cost. His group arrives in the duchy of Tanas, near the imperial capital. Caught in a sudden downpour, they take shelter in the duke's deserted villa.
