Zico and Roya then locate Zed and learn about the events surrounding Noa, Mirred, and the strange black Spirit. Shortly afterward, Zed goes off with his mother, Sara. Later, Sara re-emerges with Amil Gaoul's shard and Zico confronts her demanding the return of the Key Spirit. Sara summons Amil Gaoul and battles Zico and Pyron. His Spirit is no match for Amil Gaoul and Zico collapses to his knees. Before Sara can finish the fight, however, her body is overcome by the stress of wielding Amil Gaoul and collapses. Roya arrives and holds Sara as she dies. Zico can only look on in sorrow, unable to help her.
