Friend or Foe.Talpa sends Dais to destroy the Ronin Warriors before they can locate and rescue Rowen. As they drive back to the city, Mia explains the poem to Sage and Kento, explaining that the last verse that will lead them to Rowen is "floating amongst the eyes of the ages, unmoored in the stream of the sky," but she has no idea what this means. At a temple, Ryo, Cye, Ully and White Blaze wait for the others, but Ully is captured by Dais. Ryo and Cye battle him to save Ully and manage to free Ully, but he nearly falls to his death before White Blaze saves him. Dais easily defeats Ryo and Cye and then claims that he holds Rowen captive and tells them to meet him in the city of Sandai to rescue him. Ryo and Cye head off to find Rowen, leaving Ully and White Blaze behind to let the others know what happened. At Sandai, Ryo and Cye find Rowen held captive by Dynasty soldiers. The two armor up and destroy the soldiers and it is revealed that "Rowen" is actually an illusion and that it is really Dais. Dais creates an illusion so that Ryo and Cye each believe that they are fighting Dais, but are really fighting each other. The two use their ultimate attacks on each other, and knock each other out, realizing the truth just after they attack. Dais prepares to finish them, but the others arrive and he decides to do the same to Sage and Kento. Sage sees through the illusion and drops his weapon, but Kento doesn't and beats Sage up. After the truth is revealed, Kento turns on Dais and uses his Iron Rock Crusher to drive him off. While the group recovers from their wounds, Ryo sees a shooting star and realizes that "unmoored in the stream of the sky" means that Rowen is floating in outer space and Mia believes that he's right.
