Back at the headquarters of the Ironclaw raiders, the Raiders tell their boss about the location of the legendary mekanimal. "Lord Mercury. We were able to pin-point the location of the legendary mekanimal. The beast is buried at Firewall mountain." Says Sebal kneeling before Lord Mercury. "Good. Soon we will claim this world as ours and the machina will be removed from this world! Now, mankind will fulfill their birthright and rule over this pathetic planet!" Lord Mercury boasts to an audience of his followers. The Raiders cheer and chant upon hearing his speech. Mercury commands his forces to make haste to Firewall mountain. "I knew I could rely on you Sebal. For someone who rejects our gods gift, your loyalty proves most beneficial." Says Mercury to Sebal in a unnerving tone. Sebal climbs on top of Swordtooth and leaves with the army of Raiders. Titus and Copperhead follow Sebal, ready to see the legendary mekanimal. During the march to Firewall mountain, Sebal begins to remember how Lord Mercury found him.

Many years ago, Sebal was a simple boy from a now forgotten town. He spent his days tending to the crops and raising Mekanimals at the farm with his family. Things were peacful, until it wasn't. One day, a group of bandits siege the town looting and pillaging anything they could get their hands on. Sebal saw as the town he grew up in was burnt to the ground and his family reduced to ash. He tried to fight back but was sent flying into a pile of rubble. From there his memories became fuzzy. All he remembered was a shadowy man finding him and taking him from the former town. The man in question was Lord Mercury. Afterwards, Sebal tamed Swordtooth and became one of the Ironclaw raiders most ruthless fighters and its most loyal member. Sebal doesn't understand why Mercury would save him and leave the rest. What made Sebal special is something Sebal himself never understood. He just follows orders and gets the job done. There is no room in his mind for doubt but that won't stop the question in his mind from making room.

Elsewhere, the Riders tell the Cobalan defenders of the legendary mekanimal. "Firewall mountain? If that's where the legendary mekanimal is, then there's a likelihood the the Raiders will be heading there as well." Says Gregor. "Sir, I recommend we make our way to Firewall mountain before the Raiders get there." Suggested Tuga. Francis and Gregor order the Defenders to prepare for a fight with the Ironclaw raiders. An army of Defenders get on their Mekanimals and proceed to head to Firewall mountain, lead by Francis and Gregor. Knowing of the possibility of a fight, the Riders get on there Mekanimals and join the Cobalan defenders. Along the way, Zafira and Neo can't help but think about what Sebal said during their fight. They think about what Sebals reason for joining the Raiders could be. "What causes someone to join a group thats fueled by hate?" Is all they can think about. But questions like that must be put aside for now. The battle of Firewall mountain is about to begin.
