### Summary
The narrative has escalated into a tense three-way confrontation between Reniae, Gizzida, and Kun. Reniae is now in a direct, life-threatening battle with Gizzida, but finds herself emotionally paralyzed, hesitating to destroy a tree seemingly linked to his life. This reluctance stems from her conflicting memories of him as a once "warm person," a sentiment that clashes with the reality of his manipulation and the recent discovery of his role in her mother Minne's suffering. While some readers view Reniae as a strong heroine for facing the villain herself, many are frustrated by her inaction and question why her protective curse has not activated. Speculation is rampant that she may possess alternative means of power, such as a divine stone given to her by Kun or an item called the "eagle's heart" needed to cast a "Nigak." Meanwhile, Kun has launched a devastating counter-attack by setting the entire forest ablaze. This scorched-earth tactic, while intended to save Reniae, has introduced significant moral ambiguity, with readers drawing parallels between his indiscriminate, genocidal methods and the very ideology of the "sky people" cult he seeks to destroy. The conflict now hinges on who will act first, with Reniae caught between a manipulative monster from her past and a dangerously obsessive, morally compromised savior.
