- Notable Facts
The valley where Bang's Blade Liger was found was permeated with a strong magnetic field.
Seepers has been extorting the villagers for money for a long time.
The villagers of the town believe that Zoids are only tools of war, and not toys to be played with.
All details about the village were hidden by Prozen, with such high security clearance that even Thomas couldn't access those records within the Empire.
10 years prior, Nicholo discovered a young Ancient Zoidian girl in the ruins near the town. He brought her back to the village, but shortly after it was attacked by a Republican archeological survey group, who wanted to seize the girl. Nicholo tried to stand up against the army, but was shot and killed for interfering. It us known what happened afterwards. The Nicholo and Tirol that Bang met were ghosts of the original duo, who died in the act of trying to protect the young Zoidian girl, Rease.
It was the village that had wanted to turn her over, and had thus later turned Bang away, which fueled Rease to try to destroy it. When she tries to fire a beam that will kill them all, Nicholo's ghost appears once more. The beam strikes the chest of his Helcat, and they both vanish in a flash of light, but the group remains unharmed.

Comments: A lot of these clips are the same ones seen in The Devil of the Sea. The Red Horn clip was also cut short, but still there in the dub. He didn't fully turn. Also, THOMAS -- THOMAS NO. THOMAS DON'T DO THAT. BAD!
