The party, led by Igneous, come across a bear in the mountains just as something goes wrong with Senri and he collapses. The Kim-un-kur let Igneous and his troops into their camp because they are concerned about Senri...but their chief, Mukar, tells them that he has no intention of changing their relations with Astaria. While in the camp, Cooro and company learn that the Kim-un-kur treat +Anima with great respect, as people who have been gifted with the power of nature.
