The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel - Northern War Episode 5 Release Date: The Traitor Grandfather & A Loyal Soldier

People on the internet are now taking breaks from making memes on Attack on Titan because something very similar is taking all the space. Although at first glance one may not see the resemblance it is then that one follows the story that the underlying concept surfaces.

The story is set in the year 1205 according to the Septian Calendar. Born in the poorest and most deprived of resources places in Northwestern Zemuria, Lavi is born in the Northern part of Ambria. She is a very determined and hardworking person who has one goal, to get her family’s name out of the dirt.

She becomes a recruit in the colony of soldiers known as Northern Jaegers (Hold your Attack on Titan Horses). This one is the largest in all of the Continent. She is only doing so, so, that she can save her family and her hometown. However, her true motive is to differentiate herself from her Grandfather.

Her grandfather, Vlad was once considered a hero up until he decided otherwise and ended up betraying the North Ambria, everyone started calling him a traitor and treated his family differently even though they had nothing to do with what he did.

Lavi, on the other hand, is one of the best in the unit. She is so devoted that sometimes this gets her violation of regulations. One day, she is ordered to form a separate unit with Martin, Iseria, and Talion for an impossible spy mission to gather information about a potential threat to North Ambria.

This could be the mission that will clear her and her family’s name once and for all. However, as everyone knows nothing happens as planned in this accursed world. (Yeah, Naruto Fans, I know)

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel – Northern War Episode 4 Recap: Breaking the Blue Crystal Ice

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel-Northern War Episode 4: Breaking the Blue Crystal Ice focuses mainly on Lavi and her infiltration squad continuing their investigation in Erebonian Empire territory. They try to understand how people are living in the area confined by the borders.

As they get into it more and more they see how the Empire and North Ambria differ and nuances are highlighted. The influence is showing its effect on Lavi and her teammates evidently now. This episode clearly had more on Lavi and Iseria.

They try to find a way to heat a commercial hot spring again which is suffering from the cold. Not only do they try to do the dangerous task but also climb mountains and fight monsters just to help the commercial hot spring to get its heat back.

This may come off as something very odd as they are spies however, this is what is happening to all of them. Their kindness is taking over them and is tweaking their resolve according to which they shouldn’t even think about helping the Empire’s people.

Helping the Empire is against the mission they were sent for and by doing so they themselves are going to the path of betrayal, this may seem like a big word but these incidents are what is going to lead to it one way or the other.
