the stories are out of order. this is the correct timeline in case you're confused: Heart of Ice (this is an alternate version that sets up crisis core for War Logs 2 which is the actual Crisis Core, this version is a scrapped concept) Dark harvest (CH 1) from here the chapters are: ( left side actual chapter) 3 (ch 2) 4 (ch 3) 5 (ch 4) 6 (ch 7) 7 (ch 5) 8 (ch 6) 9 (ch 8) HOI WL2

For those confused about WL2's existence: WL1 is the prologue to crisis core, WL2 is the continuation. war logs 1 contains the stories Dark Harvest, Breakdown (A prequel to Crisis Core) and the first chapter of crisis core. War logs 2 is the continuation of Crisis core. WL1 will continue the Breakdown prequel, WL2 will be about the main Crisis core storyline.

At the end of the finale battle to retake Reach from the Covenant, Odd Della Robbia stayed behind so Aelita, Ulrich, Yumi, and Jeremie could get away. but before he said good-bye, he told Aelita he loved her. The gang is looking for him to bring him home.
