Original concept: The Magical Girl Incident may be over, but the people of S.O.N.G. know that mysteries still remain. Who aided Carol in building the Château de Tiffauges, and where did its world analysis data go? When Maria and Tsubasa turn up new leads about the Bavarian Illuminati along with photos of a South American military using Alca-Noise like weapons, the girls leap into action. Once there, not only do they face a human military backed by Alca-Noise, they encounter three alchemists of the Illuminati: Saint-Germain, Cagliostro, and Prelati. Proudly declaring that they have manifested a new kind of power through the sacrifice of lives, they likewise state their reasons: nothing less than world revolution!
