Soon Alcione catched up with the girls and proceeded to eliminate them, but... she was defeated!! Yeah!! By whom? Who else but the marvelously cute and petite Hikaru!! Hikaru summoned the magic given to her by Clef and defeated Alcione. So the girls got on Fyula again and went into the Forest of Silence.

The girls came upon a house in the Forest and went in because the door was unlock.(how careless!!) When they stepped into the house, a huge cage came down and trapped them!! A woman appeared and thought them to be burgulars!! No matte what the girls said, she would not relent. In fact, she was quite enthusiatic about boiling them in a pot.(uugh!) Umi was very upset, so she screamed about how unfair it was since the door was unlocked. And lo! The woman stopped her wild ranting and looked quite shocked. Then she asked:" Are you the Magic Knights?" And when Umi answered yes, how quickly the situation changed! The woman introduced herself as Presea, supreme Pharle of Cephiro. She is the best weaponmaster there is!! She is there to provide the girls weapons!! The girls were ecstatic but were crestfallen when they heard they needed to pay!! But Presea knew what to do. She lent weapons to the girls and told them to go to the Legendary Spring of Eterna!! The girls were to go there and get the material Eskudo for their weapons. If they succeed, Presea will make them the best weapons ever! They were supplied with Mokana, a fluffy marshmallowy rabbit-like creature and were sent on their way!!
