Episode Title:
Day of Fate
Episode Description:
Maru gets into a fight with a group of thugs and ably defends himself. He tells Kiruko that he was born in the same year as the Great Disaster and grew up in an orphanage, but the children were dispersed when he was aged seven. He survived in gangs until he was about ten when Mikura took him in. Later, after Kiruko sells some books to buy a map, Maru explains the War Collapse Theory to Kiruko. A passenger from the ferry approaches Maru and Kiruko seeking protection for himself and his "cargo" until he reaches the doctor at the Immortal Order, who can apparently grant humans eternal life by transplanting parts of a man-eater into them...
