Episode Title:
The Boy from the Canopy
Episode Description:
Kaina is a young man living on the Canopy, a massive organic membrane suspended high above the surface by Orbital Spire Trees. However, the Orbital Spire Trees have been slowly dying out along with the villages that rely on them for survival, with Kaina's own village believing they are the last remaining one on the Canopy. Kaina meanwhile wonders if humans have been able to survive on the Snow Sea on the surface of the planet. Meanwhile on the Snow Sea, Princess Ririha attempts to catch a Floater so she can go find the Sage, who she hopes can help save her country of Atland. Her group is then ambushed by a boat from the rival nation of Valghan. Her bodyguards sacrifice themselves to allow her to escape on the Floater, which travels all the way up to Canopy. Kaina happens to catch sight of Ririha while out hunting, and narrowly manages to rescue her before the Floater drifts away.
