Prince Silas' carriage is unexpectedly blocked by a child, raising alarm due to Silas' ruthless nature. Despite the danger, Silas senses the presence of a wolf cub nearby, unusually out of place on a full moon when cubs typically retreat to Frost Peak for transformation pain relief. Later, Silas learns from his attendants that a child recently requested a rare Moonlotus herb, offering lifelong service in return. Concerned about the child's whereabouts and safety during the perilous night, Silas orders the child to be brought to him, setting up a tense encounter still unresolved by episode's end.
