A brief recap of Ishura Episode 8
After reaching Lithia, Yuno was imprisoned by Dakai. Initially, she was scared and was unfamiliar with him, but she soon recognized Dakai upon glimpsing his blade. Infuriated, Yuno despised Dakia for being responsible for the death of thousands of people of Nagan.
However, she soon learned that Nagan’s scholars and explorers had requested his help to solve the Labyrinth. The episode showcased Taren's meeting with her elite champions to strategize and discuss their next steps before the impending war.
Regenejee’s wyverns implemented a tactic at the Mage City to flush out people of their hidings by engulfing the surroundings in flames and hurling rocks to eliminate them.
Harghent decided to stay with the helpless people of Mage City but eventually got cornered by a few wyverns. Surprisingly, Alus made an ecstatic return, eliminating all the wyverns above Mage City in seconds. All of a sudden, Alus spotted a giant spider heading towards Lithia.
Elsewhere in Lithia, with the help of Kia, Elea discovered Lana’s location. However, after Lana realized the Kia possessed the ability of World’s Word, she was left with no choice but to kill her. Lana managed to escape after Higuare showed up, which distracted Elea and Kia.
Higuare couldn’t manage to kill them and died instantly, which surprised the duo. However, it was eventually revealed that Nastique killed him as a defense to save her master, Kuze.
