Syndualitytakes a pause in its present-day narrative to tell two separate stories of yore.
When they located a signal up in space, Pascale had Mystere hack into it.
On the same carrier wave Mystere used to access Histoire, Histoire send a signal back: Noir.

Pascale was pursued by Ideal, and in one scuffle, she is seriously wounded.
Mystere is understandably emotional, wanting so bad for the recording to be interactive.
As for Kanata, Pascale asks him to take care of her girls, and he fully intends to.

Macht, Licht, and Weisheit were all elite Coffin pilots given equally elite Magus.
