Eve Neuschwanstein

Teruyama Momiji
Adam is attacked by a Needless called Teruyama Momiji who is seeking revenge for the murder of his friends and family. After a heated battle it emerges that Momiji has the wrong Adam, in fact the man he wants is Adam Arclight. As such he quickly joins forces with the group from the church.
Iron Mountain
Adam and the others receive information from a mysterious character called Disk who instructs them to head to Iron Mountain.
