Gyousou's ceremony nears and Taiki feels bad because he thinks he just selected him because he didn't want him to leave.  They make it through the ceremony and then head to the Kingdom of Tai.  Taiki still seems depressed and Gyousou wonders at this.  He tells Taiki to take time to rest.  As he's walking he meets Keiki and tells him why he is feeling so badly.  Keiki stands and walks away.  A few days later Taiki is summoned to the king where Keiki is also.  They have been visited by Enki and King En.  King Tai tells Taiki to bow low before King En because he is a ruler that is much respected.  Taiki can't bow however and the two other kirin make the point that no kirin can bow to anyone who is not supposed to be the new ruler.
