Synopses, Translations, Ordering Information P a r t O n e : v o l u m e t w o The man named Ferio did not seem to be an enemy. Fuu strikes a deal with
himhe helps them out as bodyguard, and they help him escape the maze
of a forest. They trudge through, and right at the exit, Umi is hit by an
ice spell by Alcione and is badly hurt. Hikaru, angered, casts Blazing
Arrow but cannot finish Alcione off. Ferio asks why the girls are not
asking him for help; Fuu replies that it was their battle and he had
nothing to do with it now that they were out of the forest. Umi comes to
and wishes that she could have a spell to help Hikaru. The ornament on
Mokona's forehead, usually red, turns blue and Umi hears Clef's voice.
Clef, through Mokona, teaches Umi her first spell, Water Dragon (Mizu no
Ryuu), and she uses it to defeat Alcione. Fuu notes all of this and asks
Mokona to allow her to help Hikaru and Umi. Mokona's head ornament turns
green, and Clef teaches her Healing Wind (Iyashi no Kaze), her first
spell. Fuu uses this spell to heal Umi's wounds that she got from
Alcione. At this point, Ferio tells the girls the Legend of the Magic
Knights that they heard Clef and Presea mentionthat when something
happened to the Pillar of Cephiro, those summoned from Another World will
become the magic Knights and fight using the power from the Mashins. he
also explains how life works in Cephirothat the Will can and does
determine everythingthat the monsters that they have been fighting are
actually materializations of the people's fears. He leaves, giving Fuu
one of his earrings and a kiss on her hand. Meanwhile, Alcione had
crawled back to Zagato's castle, and was erased by the priest. He then
summons Ascot, a little boy., to fight the Magic Knights. The three girls
in the meantime arrive at a meadow with a nice table-like tree. Hikaru
notices a "line" on top of the treeand when the girls looked at the
"line" from atop a rock, they realize that the line was Eterna..... it was
a two-dimentional pond. Mokona jumps into the line, and disappears. The
girls, realizing that they have to enter Eterna to get Eskudo, follows.
Each girl wakes up in a dark area, alone. Hikaru sees a vision of her dog
Hikaru. Umi sees a vision of her parents. Fuu sees a vision of herself.
The visions start attacking the girlsHikari starts biting Hikaru,
Umi's parents starts shooting thunder-like spells at her, and Fuu's mirror
starts shooting the arrows. Hikaru loves her dog too much to attack. Umi
can't get herself to attack her parents. Fuu notices that every scratch
she gets appears on her mirror, and vice versa. They are at a losswhen
they hear a voice from above. Emeraude. The Princess asks the Magic
Knights if the visions in front of them are things that are important to
them. The Knights all say yes. Emeraude then questions whether or not
the things which are so dear to them would do anything to hurt them....
and the Knights realize that all the visions are merely an illusion. Each
knight destroys the vision with new spells: Hikaru casts Scarlet
Lightning (Akai Inazuma), Umi casts Sapphire Waterspout (Aoi Tatsumaki),
and Fuu casts Jade Gale (Midori no Shippuu). They see Eskudo... and
when they touch the ore, their armors change shape. They teleport back
out of Eterna, and are greeted by Presea. Presea strips into her
craetors' robe, and creates the Magic Knights' weapons. She falls to her
knees from using too much of her Heart to make the weapons, but explains
to the girls that these weapons will grow as they mature, like how the
guards just changed. The weapons that they borrowed magically returned to
Presea, and their new weapons disappeared into their wristguards. At this
point, Mokona produces a little flying saucer, and the girls climb on. As
Presea looks over them, they fly off. After a moment, the saucer falls
into the oceanupon contact in the water, the saucer forms a bubble
around it and become something like a submarine. They land inside an
underwater shrine. Umi falls into a trance and states that the Mashin
lies inside the shrine. They enter a room, led by Umiand see a
drawing of a dragon sprawled across one wall. The dragon comes out of the
wall and identifies itself as Selece, one of the Mashin. Ascot appears
behind the surprised Hikaru and Fuu, and tells them that he has been
waiting here to kill the Magic Knights....
