Meanwhile, Kiy finds Leo; but also trouble in the form of a hyper-advanced [[Azrune|Azrunite]] airship [[AFS Akron|Akron]], as well as perhaps the only thing more enigmatic than it: a woman named [[Ellise Kerowan]]. Pressed into joining the Akron, Kiy is drawn into [[Julius Mestphura|Commander Mestphura]]'s secretive mission to recover something of great importance to Azrune: the prototype airship Postremo. Not an easy task, as the Postremo is in the possession of wicked Ganzabi [[Countess De Saufon]], who entraps and captures the Akron. Using the Akron's ancient [[Jump System]], Kiy and the crew escape the Countess to [[Nubylon]].

Imprisoned by Azrune for being a Cloudgazer, Kiy is unable to do anything about the worsening situation at home. But with the help of the Proctor and the unlikely alliance with Ellise, Kiy escapes Nubylon and returns to Laronor, where a battle rages. Using his Cloudgazer abilities with Ellise's piloting, the two assault the now captured Gundar head-on. Kiy manages to break past the point-defense and confront Admiral Moller, leader of the Ganzabi invasion. In a final clash, Moller fires on Laronor, to Kiy's horror. Moller's bodyguard defeats Kiy, but the Admiral is goaded and hastily fires a second time, causing the barrel to rupture and wrecking the installation. In the collapsing mass, Moller and his officers perish; while Kiy uses his Sling to get he and Hennie to safety.
