Last Exile (2003)

Episode Overview

Sophia departs from the Silvana, heading back to the Anatoray capital. General Vitellius informs the Emperor that Duke Mad-thane has clashed with the Disith fleet in Norkia, prompting Prime Minister Marius to advocate for the Disith, who have just lost their homes. However, the Emperor has already executed the Disith envoy and places Marius under house arrest. Meanwhile, Mullin begins to question his place on the Silvana, reflecting on his past as a musketeer. Alex contemplates a strike against the Guild, and Claus reveals to Lavie that their vanship previously belonged to Alex. Upon arriving at the capital, Sophia urges the Emperor to reconcile with the Disith and unite against their challenges, but he refuses and confines her to a tower. Marius visits her, recalling how he raised her after losing his daughter Euris in the Grand Stream, and insists she stay in the tower until his plans for her to become Empress unfold. That
