Episode 12: Elephants Never Forget

Full Episode Name: Elephants Never Forget, The Butcher Knot's Forces

This episode opens with The Crew splitting the newly acquired riches with Candace before she leaved the Windy Chain and the Crew then make their way, finally, to the Tamwall Empire to prepare for Captain Nox's attack and defeat the final Knot Commander, Aztec. Upon arriving at the Tamwall Port, the Crew all disembark to find the Butcher Knot and end him before Nox arrived. While exploring the port and making their way into town, the Crew happen upon a statue that was the Emperor of the Tamwall Empire. The oddest thing about the statue however was the appearance of the Emperor himself and his striking resemblance to Calek. Calek was then questioned and revealed that he was actually the runaway prince of the empire. The Crew was furious that Calek would yet again keep something from them and continued to Aztec's coliseum that was on the right side of town. When they arrived that the large, stone structure, Roost, Levos, Fost, Markus, and Calek entered, only for a steel door to drop and lock Tifa and the Twins out of the arena where they were then attacked by pirates. The young men are then faced with Aztec, whom was standing on a large balcony above the arena. All around the coliseum, pirates were going crazy over seeing the execution of traitors. Aztec then released his prized war elephant, Bijou, whom was juiced with Nova drug and in a rage. A fight then ensued with Aztec attacking from a distance, the elephant running a muck, and 8 of Aztec's men attacking the crew from behind. Against all odds the crew were winning with the men being dispatched and Levos killing Bijou. However, Aztec wasn't done as he revealed that he was done playing and grabbed a lever, pulling it down and releasing another elephant known as Nisus. The Crew then prepared for the fight to go on as we fade to black.
