Synopsis
At Camp 5 on the Furthest Edge of the Abyss, Reg is bathed by members of Hail Hex, following his battle with Nishagora. Team Riko and the members of Hail Hex then formally introduce themselves to one another.

To overcome Nanachi's hesitancy, the leader of Hail Hex, Srajo, explains the nature of Juusou and her motivations.

Inviting Riko and company to observe the entrance to the 7th Layer, Srajo reveals the true nature of Hariyomari's Song and questions Riko's understanding of the 7th Layer's curse.

Feeling more at ease, Team Riko then attempts to make a more formal acquaintance with their hosts. Nanachi is able to eavesdrop on a comment being made to Srajo and the two parties discuss the Human-looking silhouette documented in Lyza's notes.

Srajo feels confident that Reg is not the same being in Lyza's writings, noting that the being may in fact be female. Srajo then discusses this mysterious being and the connection it may have to Bondrewd's relic: Sparagmos. This exchange also prompts questions about Meinya's origin. Srajo believing the creature to be an attempt by Bondrewd to artificially create Juusou.

Tepasté and Reg are then tasked with supervising Menae and Sherumi while they bathe. Tepasté takes the opportunity to interrogate Reg about his Gentle Knock, Mermaid Burp, and her companion Cravali. After having confirmed Cravali's fate, the two are then called back to the bath by Menae and Sherumi.
