By studying writings on the walls of the Temple of the Valkyrur, Maximilian learned that the resting place of the Valkof was the great spire of the Castle in Randgriz, and renewed his efforts at conquering Gallia to claim it. Following the obliteration of most of the Gallian army at Ghirlandaio by Selvaria Bles, he deployed one ultimate weapon in order to claim another, personally commanding the unstoppable advance of the land-dreadnought Marmota. Despite the best efforts of Squad 7, Marmota broke through to the capital and crashed into the Castle.
