After the wake of Volume 3, and more specifically Roman's death in the finale, Neo is out for revenge. Cinder caused the Grimm attack and thus she's at fault for Roman's demise. However, Neo realizes she can't defeat Cinder alone. She needs allies. So she turns to the most unlikely of people: Yang Xiao Long.
