Perv is forced to beg his master’s forgiveness for his failure. Beatrix is sad she never found her niece. Sherry hears the news of the Eminence’s attack and is determined to one day kill him. With the Eminence revealed to the world, the Shadow Garden begin preparations to support Cid further, hoping he will soon take a more active role in running their organization.
Alpha guides Rose into the monster infested mountains near Cid and Claire’s childhood village, revealing the mountains contain the old Kingdom of Alexandria, now Shadow Garden's new secret base of operations. Rose has had everything traumatically taken from her, including her name, and becomes Soldier 666 in Shadow Garden’s army while she trains to prove herself to them. Meanwhile, Cid is pleased by how cool his role-playing was with Princess Iris and Lady Beatrix and looks forward to the next game.
