Important Note: The OVA summaries use a lot of screen shots ranging from 7K to 20K to help tell the story so please be patient. Although if you are as annoyed by loading as I am, and plagued with a 28.8 or lower modem, maybe you could turn off the autoload pictures option in your web browser. Otherwise enjoy!

MAIN CHARACTERS

AND OUR STORY CONTINUES...

	Bodan and his priests decide to make over Pars in Lusitania's image...
	Destroying their art and culture and books...
	Under the gaze of Narcasse and Darun who had sneaked into the outskirts of Ekubatana.
	Trade had started as always, but the Lusitanians took the place of the Pars army. Eram went to find out what happened to the city.
	Dressed as a girl, waylayed by a soldier for having speaken ill of the Lusitanians, he removed his costume and ran away to the place where Narcasse and the others were waiting.
	Eram, once back to the Prince, tells them that Karlan had left the city with 1 000 men in search of the Prince. Narcasse then tries to understand Karlan's plans: to burn all the villages until Arslan gives himself away to cease the suffering.
	Arslan is appalled by the fact that Karlan would be killing his own countrymen, and after hearing Narcasse's ideas, decides to ride out to confront him before he hurts the people of Pars.
	But Darun is afraid that Karlan's plan might be more complex: for he did leave the town in broad daylight as if to be seen by all. He also chides Narcasse on the fact that he knows Narcasse would have left them if the Prince had not chosen to put himself in danger for his people. To which he answers that loyalt and respect must be earned.
	Meanwhile, Arslan asks Eram of his mother, if he had heard any news of Queen Tahamine. Eram knows little, but the rumour would seem to indicate that she is alive and well, and that King of Lusitania has always been madly in love with her.
	On the plains close to Ekubatana, Lusitanian soldiers are moving on a lone woman on a horse.
