I literally had no idea what was going on in this episode. They basically genderbent the main character and turned this into a beach episode. This anime is truly just an advertisement for the game. Thankfully, this is just an extra episode, because it would be really annoying if this were the last and ended on a confusing note.

Synopsis
This is a world of the skies, where many islands drift in the sky. A boy named Gran and a talking winged lizard named Vyrn lived in Zinkenstill, an island which yields mysteries. One day, they come across a girl named Lyria. Lyria had escaped from the Erste Empire, a military government that is trying to rule over this world using powerful military prowess. In order to escape from the Empire, Gran and Lyria head out into the vast skies, holding the letter Gran's father left behind—which said, "I will be waiting at Estalucia, Island of Stars."

Quick Takes
View all 25 takesThis episode was an effective way to bombard viewers with random characters, but it was a high-key advertisement for the game it was adapted from, only to never see a deeper background on these characters because they're gonna add more new characters in the next episode.
This episode allowed us to see more of Lyria's psyche and how she views the world and the people around her. She first came off as being one-dimensional, but this episode cleared some of those inklings I've had with her.
