You enjoy your time at The Spinning Rudder, only for Narulu to bring word of the Fireworks Festival. Airona excitedly drags you along, but en route, you encounter the Man in Black again. The Man in Black reveals that he was behind Abeku's theft and wants Tina's file for himself. Claiming he has a "gift" for Tina related to the festival, he attempts to trap you in Void Engram but is shocked to see you unaffected. When you reject his offer to join him, he leaves frustrated.
You shake off the Void Engram and rush to find Airona. The two of you race to the festival site where Tina suddenly erupts in Void Engram while accepting a medal. Chaos ensues. Airona dashes off to find Tina. You stay behind to help the Asterleeds Defense Corps rescue civilians and destroy the Void Prisms. Thanks to your efforts, the people are saved.
