At Darklin fortress, Hunter tries to decide his next move against the Invectids but Corona is caught up in her own questions. In fact, she gets so confused and worried that the two aspects her personality that only she can see manifest before her. One, her gentle fun loving romantic side. The other, her warrior spirit and drive to be the best. Both offer her ideas about what she should do but neither is very helpful.

Hunter misconstrues her reticence for fear and traps Corona in the fortress when Buguese attacks, leaving him open to defeat. When both he and Corona fail to call upon the Oracle Keys power all seems lost. But Buguese retreats anyway, to get a better understanding of why the Oracle has seemingly abandoned Hunter.
