A brief recap of Ishura Episode 3: “Dakai the Magpie and Regnejee the Wings of Sunset”
The third episode of Ishura kicked off with the debut of the 23rd General of Aureatia, Taren the Guarded, acknowledged as the self-proclaimed Demon Lord. As revealed by the narrator, after declaring independence for Lithia and its people, Taren was preparing for conflict with Aureatia. Taren met Dakai, one of his most trusted subordinates, in his office, who brought her the artifact called The Cold Star.
As Dakai was fascinated by the artifact, to quell his curiosity, she proceeded to offer an explanation. Taren described that The Cold Star was a magic item documented in records from the era of the True Demon King. She further revealed that after the sunlight passes through The Cold Star, it changes into explosive light, capable of even bombarding a city.
Following Taren’s next order, Sakai found the spies of Aureatia and eliminated them one after the other. Despite the difference in numbers, Sakai turned the tables by just using his Magicked Blade of Rahuzort and his exceptional ocular abilities to perceive attacks and locate his targets.
The second segment of the episode focused on Regnejee the Wings of Sunset, who called all the wyverns under his command to learn about a missing minia (human) girl being killed and devoured by one of them. He eventually discovered that one of his commanders, Lukwell, was the suspect, as there was no eyewitness among the wyverns.
Reminding the pact that they have been maintaining with Taren, where they always received more than enough food to sustain life in Lithia, Regnejee brutally killed Lukwell to make a mark that no one defies his orders. Later, Regnejee flew to his home, where he lived with a minia girl named Curte. As shown in the flashback, Curte lost her eyesight after witnessing her family and people dying in front of her.
Although Regnejee had a knack for acting cold towards her, inside his heart, he cared for her deeply. He told her that a war was coming to Lithia, but she didn’t show any concern for that. Regnejee found peace in Curte’s voice, so he asked her to sing for him.
