://Roots>>Episode 4

Fore feel
The Twilight Brigade take a nice stroll through a city,as Phyllo sees them in the distance,he wonders what role Haseo will play now he has joined them.Back at the Guild's home,Sakisaka asks Tabby and Haseo why they joined this guild.Not only were they both invited in,but they seem to have accepted because of Shino's personality.

Phyllo speaks with the player from earlier,that he arranaged a meeting with Haseo and her in an alley to talk about her experience in the Twilight Brigade.She mentions to him,that she is a bit jealous that Haseo got an invitation to join them.But thats not all she wanted to tell Phyllo,it seems her and other friends are starting to notice glitches in the game,which is starting to become a rumor now. Shino and Ovan invite Haseo to the Lost Grounds,and Ovan gives Haseo a special item,he never explains what it really is though.They also discuss to the other members about a rumor thats been going around and not to worry about it.

Shino suggest that Tabby and Sakisaka go level up,while she takes Haseo to a place.This place turns out to be the infamous,Hidden Forbidden Holy Grounds.Stepping inside the cathedral, Haseo asks if there are any monsters here,Shino says there are none here.She walks over to the front,and tells Haseo that a long time ago,there used to be a girl's statue here.Her name?Her name was,Aura.Haseo asks why the statue is gone.Shino answers him,that she doesnt know,maybe she lost her love in this world.Haseo doesnt understand from that answer,but instead asks why this area exists."Lost Grounds" which is also known as "a vanished place",admins cant touch this place,and is also considered a mysterious area;Aruke Kerun waterfall is the same as this area.

Haseo finds that very strange,even for a game.Ovan steps in,saying how this game has an amazing amount of independence,meaning how a game can move or grow on its own.Haseo again doesnt really understand,so Ovan brings up the Key of the Twilight,an item that was not created by the admins of the game,but created by "The World" itself.Ovan,Haseo and Shino are inside a dungeon,and they seem to be helping Haseo level,who is leveling pretty quick.Even with Shino's help in healing him,Haseo says that this place is kind of difficult for him.Ovan says,fighting weaklings wont make you stronger.Haseo realizes that,but Ovan insists that he becomes stronger.

Afterwards,Haseo is by himself inside the guild home,Sakisaka asks where Shino and Ovan went,they had left.Now Sakisaka asks Haseo what he was doing before he came here.Haseo doesnt catch what he means,Saki mentions Gord,another ex-member from the Twilight Brigade,who Haseo asked about the Twilight Brigade before he joined.Haseo doesnt give him a direct answer,but Saki is determined to find out the real reason,even if it means beating him senseless.But just before he does,Shino comes running in,out of breath,she says to them both,that Tabi has been PKed.
