Episode Title:
The Holy Grotto (Saint-Groel).
Episode Description:
After Elen wakes up Tigre through "bloodbust", Tigre tells Elen, Limalisha, Mila, Titta and Regin that their next course of action is to head to Artishem. Regin explains that there are three routes to the Holy Grotto, and they choose the second route through the Mosha Temple. Taking a hidden passageway under the temple into the caverns, Tigre, Elen, Regin, Rurick and Bertrand discover that Thenardier and his men used another route. As a battle ensues, Thenardier sends his second-in-command Steid to pursue Tigre and Regin, while Elen faces Thenardier. The cavern begins to collapse, and Thenardier chooses to retreat. However, Steid continues to pursue Tigre. While Elen, Regin and Rurick flee, Tigre is saved by Bertrand at the cost of his life before Steid is crushed by falling rocks. Trapped underground, Tigre rushes to Bertrand, who speaks of how fortunate he was to serve Tigre before dying. Elen and Regin rush back to Artishem, where Elen finds Tigre alive and Bertrand dead in a pit. As the final battle with Thenardier approaches, the leaders of the Silver Meteor Storm wonder if Tigre will be able to overcome the death of Bertrand.
