One of the Immortal Nine, Phantom Verde, is said to be staying in a certain Nean settlement, but only authorized personnel are allowed in. While walking around town, Rouge meets a doctor who works in the settlement and seeks his help to get inside.

The imprisoned Rouge is lost in an illusion that can't be called either a dream or a memory: her life just after she was born, her days with her kind older brother Gene and her father Roy... as well as an unfamiliar woman and a masked man.

Mentre Rouge lotta contro Aerkos, Silvia e Graupon, Eden si presenta per salvarla, ma si scopre che anche lui fa parte dei Nove Immortali. Arrivano una nave usurpatrice e la Cyan e la situazione precipita nel caos. Potrebbe Cyan essere davvero la sorella di Rouge?

After making an emergency landing on Venus, Rouge's group enters the Cloud Plant to find Gene, but Silvia picks up on their movements. As Gene looks on, the Puppetmaster begins to talk about his mother, Eva Kristella, and her creation, Code Eve.

The true identity of the Puppetmaster is revealed. Rouge, Silvia, and all the others listen in shock as he explains his plans and the world he wishes for. Were Rouge and the rest no more than puppets in his play?
