Now that Tisse and Yarandrala have come so far to meet Red and Rit, they will surely join him on his journey toward the wall at the world’s end. Even though the journey itself doesn’t sound very hard, acquiring the gemstone from the gem giants might be much harder.

3. Recap of Episode 1

The episode starts with Yarandrala heading towards Red and Rit’s house with Godwin. She didn’t know who Godwin was, so he introduced himself as Red and Rit’s friend. As they are about to enter Zoltan, a guard almost recognizes him, but ultimately, he can’t remember who it is.

The scene switches to Ruti, who accompanies Red and Rits on their journey towards the wall at the world’s end. Red aims to find a blue sapphire for Rit’s engagement ring. Since it’s a rare mineral, he hopes that the gem giants who reside at the wall at the world’s end will have some.

During their journey, the party faces some goblins but quickly takes care of them. After the fight, Ruti asks Red if it’s really okay for her to leave behind the duties of a hero to live a peaceful life like this. Red assures him that it’s completely ok, but Ruti doesn’t look very convinced.

We cut to Yarandrala and Godwin, where a fight emerges after the guard runs at them, revealing Godwin’s identity. As she fiercely attacks Godwin, first Tisse and then Granny Mistrom come to his help. Even with their joint effort, they can’t defeat Yarandrala, but Tisse manages to convince her that she is Red’s friend.

Tisse leaves Zoltan with Yarandrala to take her to where Red and Rit went. On their way, when they were camping at night, she talked to her about Red and Rit. She wondered how Yarandrala would react if she knew Ruti quit being a hero. 

She starts to ask vague questions about it, but Yarandrala understands the truth. Unexpectedly, she just seems to be happy that she’ll get to meet Ruti too. The next day, they meet with Red and Rit’s party, and she is overjoyed to see everyone after so long. The episode concludes with her jumping at Red and hugging him.
