Captive is the forty-fifth chapter of the Made in Abyss manga series.

Synopsis
Riko asks the woman who she is and why she is trapped in this cave. Timidly, the woman introduces herself as Vuelo Eluko; Vueko for short. She tells Riko that she once was a person who was against the founding of the Village and thus was banished into the dark pits below it. As she kept observing how the village developt, she changed her point of view, and now supposes it's not such a bad place. She hopes to one day be freed but assumes Riko won't set a potential dangerous individual free. However Riko removes her bindings without hesitation, saying she seems like a good person. Afterward, Vueko; in disguise, goes back to the Village with Riko. She also has an idea where Riko might find her friends could be and leads her to the house of one of The Three Sages,"Belaf". When Riko enteres Belaf's house she finds Nanachi laying beside a Narehate that looked like Mitty. Majikaja was inside the sage's house with them, as well. When Riko meets the Sage he tells her that Mitty was a clone that he got by sacrificing half of his body and he got her through replication because they did not have the money to directly buy Mitty from Bondrewd. He also tells Riko why Nanachi is with the Mitty copy and Belaf and what Riko could to do to get them back.
