• Sophia brought Leon's decree to Jiang Yuu, who decided how to respond.
• Sophia declared the Winged People independent in Yuliel City and founded the Kingdom of Rosendas.

Jiang Yuu established the Kingdom of Rosendas as the Sea Folk, led by Themis, invaded the Winged People's eastern coast. Sophia's strategy drove them back into the sea, and Themis persuaded Charybdis to flood part of the coast to give the Sea Folk an advantage.
