==Introduction==
The story begins with the title screen within the radiant gardens, them lit up by glorious sunlight, while one can see grand, celestial bodies float through the blackness of space. A tree is in the foreground while the title is displayed over it, it prompting the player to press start. Upon doing so, the camera zooms out, showing the rest of the garden, it dotted with colorful flowers. Additionally, dragons of varying colors seem to be lazing about on the fields. The camera keeps panning, until coming across a slim looking dragon with pale scales and leathery wings.

Said pale dragon has their tail curled around a small, bronze-colored dragon behind them. Said dragon appears to be looking intently at the fields, before the dragons in it stand up and stretch their wings, before extended them and flapping, flying off into space towards a few planets. The bronze dragon steps forwards curiously, while the pale dragon follows alongside them. The bronze dragon looks out over the stars and asks the pale dragon which one will be his. The pale dragon says that he should be patient. He should be spending that time retaining lessons necessary of a leader. During her talk, the pale dragon addresses him as '''Demiurge'''.

The two approach the hill, where the pale dragon takes Demiurge by the shoulders, and has him scan over the starry sky. As she does, she attempts to remind him of an important lesson among the dragons: scale. There are lots of worlds out there that lots of dragons are tending to, and in the end, a planet is only ever as lasting as a memory. It is not immortality that suggests a great world, as each faces their end no matter what. Demiurge asks what does then? However, the pale dragon says that she cannot say.

After scanning for a bit, she points to a blue planet with dots of green on it. She says that that is his world. The pale dragon asks if they're ready, at which Demiurge assures her he's ready to rule a world. The pale dragon nods, and then grasps his hand. With that, the pale dragon lifts her wings. But before she flaps, she faces the dragon, and tells him that he won't be coming back until this world reaches its end. Is he sure he's ready? Demiurge nods enthusiastically, saying that he's born ready. With that, the pale dragon's wings lift up, before flapping, lifting the two dragons off the ground.

They flew through the space, towards the large, blue planet, approaching and approaching. As they approach, the pale dragon says that he's a little younger than most rulers, and that's why she decided to set things up for him. Those on this planet are beginning to develop thoughts of their own, though only a few of them. There are a few exceptionally intelligent patrons on the planet, and she says that these intelligent patrons are going to help Demiurge develop the planet. But it'll be up to him to lead the residents of this planet to a better society.
==Stone Age==
===Early===
;Mei 6th

The pale dragon soon descends towards the surface, where she points to a small settlement, it consisting of tents and log cabins. The dragon comes down to the surface, it surrounded by a thick forest, and sets Demiurge on the ground. She backs away and says that for now, she'll hide over here in case he feels this may be too daunting. The bronze dragon assures her that he'll knock this civilization out of the park! So, he sets out of the forest, looking towards the settlement. At this point, players can now control Demiurge and have him walk around the ground and head towards it, crossing the '''Broisis Plains''', which hosts a few feral animals that will attempt to attack. However, they're fairly simple to take care of, even when solo.

After crossing the plains, Demiurge arrives at the place, spying a ginormous bee lady who's sketching lines around the border of the settlement. Upon approaching, the bee turns up to face him, and stumble back. She hoists up her fists defensively, narrowing her eyes at the dragon. The dragon can greet her with "Hello?" and "Who're you?" Either response causes her to pause and lower her guard. She asks if he understood what he said, which Demiurge clearly does. The bee then relaxes, amazed. She thought she knew every intelligent person on this island.

Demiurge can ask "Who're you?" or "Who else is intelligent?" To the former, she says that she's been responsible for building up the housing and is currently in the process of constructing a fence for the place. To the latter, she says that several of them are struggling with who should teach their lesson next, while the remaining few are trying to entertain the Neanderthals or are gathering provisions. Either way, the conversation leads to her deciding to introduce herself as '''Denosys''', where she welcomes Demiurge to '''Grutal'''.

Deonsys leads Demiurge into the settlement, where several other animal people around, from the fox that's slouched over who hasn't evolved to stand upright, to the wolf that still feels they must walk on all fours. They all had a very un-intelligent look in their eyes, almost akin to a babe still trying to get an understanding of the world. Deonsys leads them past several tents, before bringing them towards the log cabin and beside the wall facing away from the two of them. There, they can see a bunch of similarly slack-jawed animal people, each seated, watching a peacock man, who was remarkably well dressed, given the materials provided.

The peacock's colorful tail feathers are fanned out and spun around, each animal person following while the dancer swayed his tailfeathers enthusiastically. Additionally, he's seen with what appears to be a wooden bucket full of red berry juice. He takes up handfuls of it, and spreads it over the wall, seeming to use the juice to paint something. He appears to be talking to the onlookers, where he explains that this kind of ink requires protection, else the elements will threaten to erase any and all hard work. He also explains that it's important to make sure you have a particular image in mind before setting out, else you'll have to either scrub off your work with water, or paint over it.

After that, Deonsys lets out an "ahem" to draw the performer's attention. At that, the peacock faces them, before his dancing begins to slow down. The bee sighs before ushering the peacock towards the two of them. He retracts his tail feathers, and waddles over to the bee, looking guilty. The bee sighs, and says that she's bringing the new guy around on a tour. She says that this one's also able to speak just like the rest of them. The peacock gasps dramatically, before whipping over beside him to ask if she's telling the truth. Demiurge can answer "Yes" or "No", either of which leading the peacock to realize that it's true! The new guy can speak!

He backs up before bowing dramatically, introducing himself as '''Arrivar''', the one with the most class on this island. He asks who the dragon is, at which he says he's Demiurge. Throughout the conversation, Arrivar is practically invading Demiurge's personal space, who's trying to back away. Deonsys steps in to separate the two of them, saying to let the new guy breathe. Arrivar apologizes and dusts himself, saying that he thought they were the only ones with brains all throughout here.

Demiurge greets Arrivar, and asks when he's going to meet the rest of them. The peacock says that those two are going at it still. Arrivar then asks Deonsys if she saw Gidere, who Demiurge doesn't know yet, approach. She says she hasn't seen him, and was busy with this guy. Arrivar says that he hasn't been out for this long before... He asks if they should probably be worried about him. Deonsys supposes that someone should probably go check him out. She's still got to work on the perimeter, and those other guys have to decide on who's in charge of teaching today. She says that maybe the new guy can handle him, and that perhaps Arrivar should supervise the new guy, he's already shown he can't be trusted alone.

Arrivar seems offended, but Deonsys is already leaving their size. The peacock sighs, before facing the dragon. He says that they've got a system where everyone needs to know where the other'll be heading so that the remaining intelligentsia can investigate that area to keep them safe. Arrivar says that Gidere's been staking out a den of ferals and said that he'll be trying to overtake it in order to bring meat to Grutal. Arrivar warns that he's not really a fighter, so Demiurge'll have to show those lame-brains his muscles if things come to blows.

So, the duo steps out onto the Brosis Fields, their destination leading them to a mountain range towards the west. The group heads towards it, a thick forest beside the range. They arrive at the wall, where Arrivar says that they should search the southern half, the den's down that way. Demiurge follows suit towards the southern edge, soon approaching a cave in the wall. There they begin to enter it, when they hear scampering inside. Suddenly, a horned owl bolts past them, before the duo look back down the cave to see a pair of big, feral wolves bolting towards them. Arrivar shouts to run, before Demiurge and the peacock turn around and run.

They try to bolt, but Demiurge can see the wolves slowly gaining on them. He tells the other two that they won't be able to outrun these guys for long. However, the horned owl says that he just needs a bit more distance. As he runs, he reaches up, and manages to snag a vine from one of the hanging branches. He hurls the vine behind him, Arrivar managing to grab it. The peacock warns Demiurge to get ready to jump at the next pair of trees they pass. Arrivar then sprints forwards to get beside the horned owl. The both of them go behind a pair of trees, beside each other but allowing simple passage.

Taking the peacock's orders into mind, Demiurge looks out ahead. There, he sees makes sure that his runs make sure both feet end up going over the vine. When he passes, the two animals pull tightly, the vine going straight right before the feral wolves pass. And once it does, the wolves collide with it and suddenly trip forwards, falling flat on their faces and getting stunned. At that, the horned owl releases the vine and draws a stick with an arrowhead-like stone fastened to the tip. The horned owl declares that now they have the advantage! Time to seize!

At that, a boss fight engages that has players use, not just Demiurge or Arrivar, but the horned owl as well, to battle the wolves, who don't get to act on the first turn, so players are able to utilize the skills of the allies without fear of getting damaged. After a simple enough fight, the two wolves are felled, much to the horned owl's celebration. He thanks the two of them for their efforts, before focusing on Demiurge and asking where he came from. Arrivar says that this is another intelligent being! He decides to welcome the two of them: Demiurge meet '''Gidere''', Gidere meet Demiurge.

Gidere, the horned owl, remarks that this is such good fortune. He enthusiastically shakes the dragon's hand, before stepping away. Now that they've got an extra pair of hands, they should be able to bring the entire quarry with them. Demiurge glances at the wolves, before asking for clarification on what he means. Gidere raises a brow and asks him if he's one of those herbivores. The dragon continues to look at him confused, before Gidere sighs. He says that for now, they should focus on the wolves.

So, the group picks up the fallen wolves, and carries them off across the field.

Cut to later, where the trio arrive in Grutal, Deonsys still drawing the perimeter. Upon seeing them, she waves to greet them. She remarks that they haven't carried back bodies this big before, all in one piece. She says that today they'll eat well! Demiurge is still confused: eat them? Deonsys asks him where he's been before he showed up on this settlement. Demiurge explains that he's been descended from on high to lead this world. All present seem confused. Gidere explains that they sort of have been debating who leads.

Demiurge asks what they mean about debating leadership. Deonsys suggests that they discuss this after they cook up a meal.

The game then cuts to evening. Later, the many mindless animals are chomping and tearing at large slabs of meat. Meanwhile, Demiurge looks out, still trying to grasp what he's seen. Meanwhile, Arrivar nudges his side and says that the intelligentsia eat inside the big resting quarters. With that, the peacock begins heading towards the house, Demiurge following. Demiurge steps into the log cabin, there being no bottom to the cabin, exposing their feet to the dirt beneath. Demiurge keeps on following Arrivar, who heads to a table in the corner of the big cabin, no walls other than the exterior. Several pelts are on the ground, resembling sleeping bags.

The table has several animal people sitting at it, them standing upright like most intelligent people. There's the bee from before, the peacock, and Gidere. And accompanying them is what looks like a gruff-looking mink person, and a slender rabbit lady. Demiurge approaches the head of the table, at which Arrivar greets him as the "one descended from on high to lead this world", with a distinct mocking tone. The mink tells Arrivar to settle down: they shouldn't talk down to what clearly appears to be an intelligent being.

The mink greets himself as '''Rugar''', saying it's a pleasure to meet... Demiurge completes his sentence by introducing himself. The rabbit says that she's so happy to meet someone so new! She says that her name's '''Meila'''. With that, Gidere says that now that everyone knows everyone, it's time to get down to important business. They weren't able to settle on someone to do the teaching, while Arrivar was able to use the opportunity to sneakily fill their mind with his nonsense ink-slathering. Arrivar shoots up and says that there's a craft to that "ink-slathering" that none of these class-less Neanderthals can learn to appreciate!

Deonsys ushers him to settle down. Demiurge asks what's up with the debate on who gets to say what they want to say to the people of this settlement. At that, they each lean back. Meila explains that a while ago, they've each had a vision: the five of them were greeted by a strange image in the middle of the night. A strange reptile with scales akin to a cloud spoke with them, and said that they each were told that they all have a special role in this role: that their teaching will be what influences the growth cycle of this world. Future societies will be molded by what they teach, and that their methods will be immortalized as the bedrock of the new generations.

The problem: they all can't decide what teaching deserves more attention than the other. However, as they speak, Gidere turns towards Demiurge and asks him whether or not he has his own idea how the world should be run. The dragon, however, remarks that they each seem to have their own interesting idea for what should be done for the world, that he's not sure he can come up with a method of his own. With that, Gidere faces the rest of the intelligentsia, and notes that they now have an unbiased third party. Demiurge raises a brow at that, and each animal at the table seems to light up upon understanding what the survivalist is getting at.

They then turn towards Demiurge, and Gidere tells him that if he really is meant to run the world, then it's his lucky day. Starting tomorrow, he'll be deciding the path of their people. Arrivar applauds the decision and says he looks forwards to this guy introducing their people to some actual class. Meila chimes in, saying that surely they'll pull their people out of the grasp of their primitive, animalistic state of mind. Rugar says that they needn't pressure their new guest just yet. They have one whole night to hang out as mere acquaintances, and they should enjoy the time they have together before this becomes mere business as usual.

Deonsys agrees with that, and says there's still plenty to eat! So, with that, there's one more meal, before the intelligentsia returns to the cabin, each retiring to the animal pelts that are around the floor. Demiurge simply lies down, curls his tail around himself while covering himself with his wings, and then rests.

;Mei 7th-14th

Demiurge wakes up and looks around, seeing that the intelligentsia are already at the table, waiting. Players can step out and head towards the woods to speak with their caretaker. He can ask her what he should do, though the caretaker explains that this is all on him. Only he can decide which route mortal kind can go down. She does, however, suggest that he spend some time talking one on one with each teacher so that he can understand their position more and possibly decide which route is more important. She also says that he doesn't have to just focus on one teacher throughout his time here, but that he can have other teachers act rather than focus on just one.

Going to talk to the intelligentsia at the table triggers a special choice. They say that this is the first chance Demiurge has. He'll decide on who leads the lesson today. The teacher allowed to lead a lesson will be unable to do anything else today, so keep that in mind in case he wants to do anything with either an individual or out on the field. And here, players are able to choose from either of the intelligentsia to act.
*Gidere - Focusing on the survivalist aspect allows the party to receive medicine and food
*Denosys - Focusing on the constructionist aspect allows buildings to be constructing in Grutal, which allows for additional activities to happen
*Arrivar - Focusing on the artist aspect allows the party to receive armor and weaponry that enable special effects/status ailments
*Rugar - Focusing on the military aspect allows the party to receive armor and weaponry that excel at defense and attack power respectively, though bare penalties the greater the defense and attack.
*Meila - Focusing on the ideology aspect allows the services at Grutal to be provided that allows for more Quality of Life betterments, such as acquiring certain buffs

Before they select, the game warns that it'll require a few days of teaching for their town to receive the subsequent benefits. The player can check on the progress of the teachings to see how close either teaching is to receiving a boon.

After selecting a teacher, the group doesn't quite disband yet. Gidere points out that they have some left over consumables, but they'll require more soon enough. Arrivar also points out that it's been getting warmer as of late. He says that the tents are good help, but they'll probably need more cover soon. A few of the Neanderthals seemed ready to pass out while he presented his art. Demiurge asks if they can let a few into the cabin here, at which Gidere pointed out that they tried to before, but that messed up the hierarchy for a little bit.

The Neanderthals do seem to respect them as members of authority, but they also seem to think that when one member does something, then the rest can. Their small cabin was quickly swarmed by the animals, them threatening to crush each other with their own bodies. They had to physically push them out of the cabin! So, they set to work developing these tents so that they can teach them that they can go in there. Gidere supposes that they may be able to accomplish two problems at once.

Gidere explains that once an animal is felled, he skins them so that they can feast on the muscle unfettered by feathers or scales or fur. The left over skin's been used as clothing and tents. Rugal says that they'll need a lot of animals to build up enough tents for the many Neanderthals. That, or bigger beasts. However, Meila points out that they've been in the nearby lands for several weeks now, but the largest creature they found were massive wolves from the nearby dens. Said wolves had helped to make some of the tents.

Deonsys also remarks that they'd needed quite a few pieces of tree to support those pelts, and they're still trying to build up the fence. Demiurge supposes that those tents should be given attention if they're to keep the residents safe from the heat. Rugal suggests inactive teachers could stand guard while the fence remain unfinished. This'll mean that party members won't be able to be switched out during exploration for now.

So, since this area's clean of large animals, If in the party, Gidere says that they should seek out other lands for more creatures. He says that they'll probably be low to the ground, so they should x-out mountain exploring. The forests also are hardly room for really big animals, so they suspect the forest'll be out of the question. So, he suggests they head west on the road, there was a migration in that direction anyways.

So, the group heads out that way. As they do, if he's in the party, Gidere notes that the footprints are bigger than their whole bodies. If he's in the party, Arrivar will groan in disgust and ask if they're considering making their tents out of some brainless' feet. The peacock will be ignored. Either way, the group heads westward, arriving in the '''Wild Lands'''. There, they see thick palm trees lining the road, as well as grass bigger than their whole bodies around a road paved by traveling animals.

As they're walking, they can see massive shadows in the distance. Seeing that, a member of the party says that they should hide in the grass. There, if he's in the party, Gidere/Rugal/Deonsys remarks that before Demiurge arrived, massive reptiles stamped through and threatened to tear local animals apart with a single snap of their jaws. They may be the intelligentsia, but those monsters are the king of the land for now.

Either way, Demiurge says that they'll either have to integrate those into their society, or grow stronger than them. One of the party members speak up and say that the one that gifted them their knowledge warned them that the monstrous reptiles were to be avoided. They can't be reasoned with, and any attempt to approach them will lead to death.

Either way, the party suspects that they'll be able to find something here. Apparently some massive sabertooth tigers marched up this way, apparently either brave or strong. They're also really big, so if they take care a few of them. So, they decide to continue forwards. As they do, if Gidere isn't in the party, then the party remarks that they'll probably be able to find those tigers' trail. Still, they'll do what they can to follow their path. And so, the player is required to follow tiger tracks into the Wild Lands, which'll eventually lead them to a den where '''Large Tigers''' are resting. The player will be forced to battle these things, and bring them back to the camp.

With them acquired and brought back to town, Gidere says that these should keep the Neanderthals safe. For now, they still need to work on the fence, however, which means they'll have to head out againm for now though, they should rest.

;Mei 15th
After this, the party wakes up to a new day in Grutal. As they, do, they observe some of the Neanderthals, whose current activity changes depending on who taught them.
*Gidere - Many of the Neanderthals are seen actually helping to keep their tents propped up, while examining the hides for any damages and attempting to sew them up.
*Denosys - Many of the Neanderthals are seen scooting stones around before arranging them together, where they proceed to stack them up into shapes that seem to stand up thanks to the stones around them.
*Arrivar - Many of the Neanderthals are seen grabbing thin objects, from stones to sticks, and digging them into the soil to sketch out designs, not that they quite have an exact shape in mind.
*Rugar - Many of the Neanderthals are seen taking up sticks and stones and starting to bring them together to form various weapon-like shapes with the crude equipment.
*Meila - Many of the Neanderthals are seen with various meats. Some have more than others, but the ones with more, with slight hesitation, provide some to those with less, trying to make it so everyone has equal food.

Demiurge seems excited at seeing progress already starting to get made in their lives. Gidere then speaks up and says that they are far from ready, though he does admit that this is good progress. Deonsys says that there's still the fence to work on. She supposes that once they finish that, then they'll be able to focus more on bettering the Neanderthals. Though, Arrivar says that they should relax after their efforts. He calls dibs on Denosys.

However, Rugar brings up that Demiurge is kind of new, so perhaps he should pick who he wants to hang out with to celebrate. Deonsys says that's a good idea. And so, the player is allowed to choose a character to hang out with for the day.
*Gidere - Gidere decides to bring Demiurge on a nature walk. He remarks that despite the danger out here, it helps to clear his mind. He says that as interesting as it is to have some other intelligents out there, he sort of wishes that it were just him and the Neanderthals. Until Demiurge arrived, they've just been arguing and arguing. At least with the Neanderthals it's simple. He sighs before saying that he supposes he'll have to learn to get along, but so will the rest of them. Though he remarks that may be what Demiurge is here for, right? The two of them continue their nature walk.
*Denosys - Denosys brings Demiurge to a bunch of rocks nearby, where she decides to have a little competition with him. She offers him to lift as many rocks as he can, and she'll do the same. She lifts and lifts. As she does, she begins giving some trivia about rocks, remarking how these things have apparently been around a few hundred-more years than any of the current life. That's what someone told her in her dream. She glances over towards the mountains and supposes that maybe she's right, there's no way something that big could've grown in just a few days. And yet, the voice told her that she could look far and wide, but never find a trace of who those who died were. She says that if that's what their future has in store, then... Then she thinks that they should build a mountain, that'd show something of all of them for years beyond their deaths, maybe even centuries. They continue lifting rocks.
*Arrivar - Arrivar has taken Demiurge behind the cabin, where he's mixed up various inks and juices into specific bucket-shaped stumps in front of him. There's also a tree trunk shaved of its bark into a clean surface. Arrivar asks Demiurge to try and paint his image into the tree. So he turns, bends over slightly and juts out his rear while looking over his shoulder, and then asks him to go ahead. Demiurge does so, dipping his claws when he tries to trace the peacock, though is very sloppily due to being fairly young. Arrivar says that that voice told him about how finite everything is. She described how the world hadn't a single mountain, or a single speck of green, but the current world is unrecognizable. He supposes that he wouldn't want people forgetting about people like him, or about this kind of a world, so he'd appreciate that these artistic pieces be made. Demiurge soon finishes his painting, only to produce a colorful stick figure.
*Rugar - Here, Rugar brings Demurge near what he deacribes as a forge. He deacribes it as the product of Denosys. He says for now, he's here to keep the dragon entertained. The dragon remarks that he's been very friendly with him, at which the mink says that Demiurge is new, unlike the intelligentsia who've had plenty of opportunity to butt heads with him. He supposes he can try massaging any tense parts if Demiurge wishes. Demiurge, however, seems content with simply sitting there and talking. Rugar sighs and leans back. Demiurge asks what he does to relax, at which Rugar admits he doesn't relax. He says that the lot of them are supposed to construct the world that'll last beyond their lifespans, and he has no idea on how whatever they could construct could last. He supposes if they have the muscle then they could last, right?
*Meila - Meila brings the dragon out to some feasting Neanderthals, and has with her some bark fashioned into a comb. She says that they should spend some time working on the animals' coats. Demiurge decides to follow suit, at which he kneels down and begins tending to said coats. Meila gently brushes while Demiurge rakes his claws gently through their fur. They'd repeat this process, when Meila wonders if it's messed up what they feed the Neanderthals meat. She says that Gidere justifies it saying ferals eat other animals anyways, but still she finds it screwed up. These creatures are meant to grow into functioning members for some kind of society, as in people just like the rest of the intelligentsia. And it's not like it'd be right for any of them to eat one of them, right? She thought about how she'd feel getting chopped up to be devoured by Gidere, and she remarks it as a terrifying thought. Ferals apparently won't be able to have the capacity to feel that sort of terror, but the point is that those creatures are apparently meant to have the capacity to've become like one of them. It's not right to devour someone that doesn't realize how terrifying that sort of thing is, is it? Demiurge seems uncomfortable with this line of questioning, and keeps on tending to the Neanderthals.
===Midway===
;Mei 16th

After that, the group wakes up again. They're around the cabin, where Demiurge asks what they should do now. Deonsys brings up that there's still the matter of the fencing, though there probably won't be that much work needed to keep it up. They just need to gather more wood. However, Gidere says that there's still the matter of continuing their education. Furthermore, he says that they haven't been totally honest. Rugar asks what he's referring to, to which Gidere explains that there's part of the reason the fence needs to be made.

Suddenly, Rugar seems to understand what he means. The mink explains that those neanderthals are quite dumb, and tend to wander off if they aren't kept under close eye. Even then, it's possible that a watcher will miss them. Meila says that five were missing, which isn't good. Arrivar says that they probably have enough to ignore those guys, though Gidere says that they just can't let anyone with potential go. He says that he might be able to get a read on their trails if he can search around the settlement. Still, it won't be totally easy to find these few.

Arrivar says that as good as that sounds, there's still the matter of the next teacher. Someone has to lead these neanderthals, even if those wandering dummies have to play catch up. So, once again, Demiurge needs to decide on someone to act as a teacher, and they, once again, won't be an available party member for a while.

After deciding, the group searches around, before Gidere's able to find the trail of footprints. He says that they're heading towards the Wild Lands again, though they're heading too deep in for him to search too far in order to know. With that, the group has at least a starting point to work towards. So for the night, the group's tasked with heading to the Wild Lands, which, upon reaching the entryway of the area, allows them to find one of the neanderthals, a tiger guy.

Arrivar/Deonsys say that they've still got a little more to work towards. If Deonsys says this, she'll say that they need to get the fence up faster. So, they go to send the tiger back, though as they are, the growl of a nearby creature ushers out. Looking back, they can see a pair of boars coming in, them looking awfully threatening. The group has to take up arms to fight, and are soon able to wear down the powerful creatures. With them beaten, they're able to send the neanderthal back, before Rugar/Gidere say that they need to speed up their process if monsters are coming upon them this fast.

;Mei 16th - 25th

So, the goal is to find the remaining neanderthals, as well as collect enough wood for the camp. This involves finding brittle trees to collect them, while also searching the general area. The remaining neanderthals are not so easily found, so it'll be a little tricky to find everyone. The group will search and search, before eventually finding the remaining neanderthals.
*Parrot - The parrot is located deep in the wooded area. He can be seen trying to climb a tree, though the party will stop him. Thankfully, this is a brittle tree, so on top of saving him, they also get to gather wood. As they do, Gidere/Deonsys will take notice of the tree itself. They remark the marks on the tree, what seems to be a trio of claw marks, said claws looking to be even bigger than either intelligentsia's head. Gidere/Deonsys say that this mark is unlike any creature they've ever seen. It's too big for wolves or tigers... Unfortunately, they can't look into this issue much more right now.
*Rhino - The rhino is found lingering near the caves from the past mission. Once there, they find her wandering at the mouth of the cave, which unveils a set of wolves that chose to set up shelter at what those powerful tigers set up at. They're able to fight off the wolves, and are thus able to send back the rhinos. And as they do, Rugar/Arrivar approach the wolves. They look over the corpses, before paying attention to one of them, this one boasting a very large gash in its side, this looking nothing like any of their weapons. Rugar remarks that they were lucky to survive after taking a blow like that, and Arrivar can say that they were probably scared out of their homes by... something.
*Gorilla - The gorilla can be found in the clearing, where she's growling and trying to scare off a feral gorilla. They're each beating their chest at the other and growling, at which Demiurge will remark that if they leave them be, they could end up fighting each other! The group rushes in to divide the two apes while squaring up to the feral gorilla, before noticing that they're covered in numerous scars, as well as what appear to be piercing blows to their thigh. Before they can keep on analyzing, the gorilla wails again, and engages. The group's forced to battle the powerful monster. After battling them long enough, the gorilla's overwhelmed, and forced to flee. And when it turns around, the group gets a better look at its thigh, noticing that those piercing blows seem to completely encase said thigh. Meila/Gidere remark that they've never seen a wound like that before.

After battling those, one of the party members remarked that they thought they heard something back where they came from, and that they should go back to investigate. And so, they head out towards the entrance of the Wild Lands, at which they uncover a scared looking armadillo lady neanderthal. She looks up at them and waves them over. When they're over, she begins to mutter, saying "M... mon... ster..." The group's curious about what she means, when Gidere/Rugar suddenly become aware of some movement nearby. They remark to the group that soemthing's coming, before swiveling around to face whatever enemy's coming on. 

They linger and linger, while also surrounding the armadillo. And then, suddenly a creature leaps out from the bushes. This creature boasted scales, appeared larger than Deonsys, bore claws almost as big as either group's hands, and have a set of teeth akin to daggers. The party member's forced to swivel away as the monster brings both claws down towards them. After evading that blow, a second creature leaps out to try and ambush the party. And another, and another, and another. Five of these scaly beasts are out and engaging the group, snarling and hissing at them.

Gidere/Arrivar then point out to their claws, saying that they look just like the claw marks they've been seeing around! Demiurge asks if their friends have been running from these creatures the whole time. However, they cannot ponder much further, for in that moment, the creatures attack, and the group's forced to battle the '''Velociraptor Pack'''. This can be somewhat tricky, though with proper Skill use, they should be able to knock them down, before leaving them open to an All Out attack. The fight will be tricky, but eventually, they should be able to overwhelm the monsters and knock them down. 

With them beaten, the party pants and pants, while looking over the group. As they do, Arrivar/Meila remark that they look a little bit like Demiurge. Gidere/Rugar say that it means nothing, but clearly they cannot keep quiet about this. A monster like this having just appeared without warning? They will have to discuss this development more. But for now, it's time to set up that fence and make sure everyone's where they need to be.
----
The night they complete their jobs, the party members meet up to discuss. Gidere says that the monsters they found haven't been seen in a long time. Monsters of that kind had migrated eastwards, and as far as their group was led to believe, they'd kept on going that way for a while. Demiurge asks how long ago those things vanished, to which Gidere says that it's been a couple of years, though they'd been able to recollect some of their time as neanderthals. 

Arrivar says that if there's some silver lining, at least that armadillo lady's starting to pick up on their speech. If they get her tongue working especially well, they just might be able to get the full story of what happened the night those five disappeared, it seems as if those monsters were heavily involved in it. Deonsys agrees with this sentiment, though supposes that they'll have to wrap up their work here, what with setting up the fencing.

The meeting breaks, and thus they separate to keep on building up the defenses, leaving the rest of the time for this area as free time.
===Penultimate===
;Mei 26th

With this, the group's managed to round up the neadnerthals that fled before bringing them out. Meila says that the armadillo's speech has been coming along just splendidly, also adding in that the other neadnerthals have been starting to catch onto speaking as well. Gidere says that this is good progress, and now it's time that they converse with these guys. The group agrees, before approaching.

Demiurge can ask "How're you feeling?" or "Are you ok?" To either, the armadillo answers "I good". They each look towards the other neanderthals, who nod in affirmation. Arrivar says that a couple nights ago, they lost the group. He then asks what the nitwits were doing so far from Grutal. The armadillo answers monsters. She says that creatures swept in eastwards. Curious, she and the other four approached, when the beasts turned their attention towards them. They sprinted as fast as the wind, and scared them off to the Wild Lands. They tried to hide there, but the beasts remained and messed up the place. The tiger says that he hoped to hide in the grass, the parrot says that he tried to climb away from the attackers, the rhino says she tried to hide, and the gorilla says she wanted to get stronger. 

Rugar remarks on the "east" part, before pondering if those creatures are, in fact, coming back. Gidere says that they have to do something about this. In light of the arrival of those monsters, they must set out to the east to try and uncover where those overgrown lizards came from.

The group assigns someone to teach, and with that, they're tasked with heading eastward. And as they head that way, they uncover the '''Uninhabitable Lands'''. These lands appear to feature a more hill-like terrain, though there is a worn path from the way they came and down them. Many bones can be seen scattered around the general area, some of creatures even greater in size than any of the party members. While there are woods, the majority of the landscape appears to be lacking in vegetation. The group steps forwards more and more, and as they do, they can notice more lizard-like creatures wandering, some being as small as a dog, some being bigger than a gorilla. 

Gidere/Rugar say that they'd run from creatures like this back before they were intelligent, and they appear to be quite similar to the ones back at the Wild Lands. Deonsys/Meila will remark that they're pretty close to Grutal. They were lucky those five only chased a small portion of them, but if they leave them on their own, who knows if these creatures will leave them alone? Arrivar/Gidere can then say that they couldn't stand up to these things before, but Rugar/Deonsys remark that they've kind of changed a lot between then and now.

The next mission is clear. Step into the Uninhabitable Lands, and find a way to shove these forces back and away from them. 

;Mei 26th - Jusis 5th

With this, players are required to wander through the dinosaur infested lands in search of whatever monster is in charge. This first involves heading down the hills alongside the path worn down by those that'd stepped through it before. They may encounter dinosaurs, though at the end of the path, they find one of the big ones: an '''Ankylosaurus''', an armored beast boasting a mace-like tail. Rugar/Gidere say that it looks pretty tough, and suspects that they'll be able to push the forces back by beating it. Demiurge supposes that this'll be their best chance at advancing. After confirming their move forwards, the group approaches, and gets the attention of the Ankylosaurus, who is immediately prompted to attack. 

It's a kind of tricky fight, the creature boasting fairly high defenses and attack power. With the proper use of magic, players should be able to overwhelm it, as well as the use of ailments should wear the beast down. After enough beating the beast down, it falls to its side, felled by the party. They each bring their weapons back, Deonsys/Rugar saying that that thing was pretty tough. Arrivar/Meila says that there's no way they would've beaten that thing before now, thank that dragon they grew into their own. Hearing that, Demiurge can't help but feel slightly self conscious. His caretaker's already done much for these guys... he can only hope he can match her influence. 

Either way, Deonsys/Rugar will say that there's probably more deeper in. They should keep moving. And so, the group's able to progress, now stepping into some more green pastures with trees stretching skyward and grass dotting the landscape, though several trees appear to be toppled while plenty clumps of grass appear to be somewhat dead. The grassland is filled with more dinosaurs, including some of those raptors that try to ambush the player. They keep on progressing more and more, though as they get deeper in, they can find a lot of thick bushes surrounding them. Gidere/Arrivar remark that they feel a dangerous presence, before the player's asked if they wish to progress.

They're allowed to progress deeper in, and can hear something dashing from the bushes. They each look around wearily, feeling threatened. They wade deeper and deeper in, when suddenly, a dinosaur boasting a wing and tail of feathers suddenly lunges with the intent to attack! With this, players are thrust into battle with the '''Archaeopteryx''', a fairly agile creature that is more susceptible to damage than the last midboss. After enough fighting, the group is soon able to take the beast down. 

With that, the group pants and pants, Rugar/Gidere looking over the beast before glancing towards Demiurge curiously. He wonders what they're up to, and they ask if Demiurge came from these guys. The dragon assures that he wasn't, he came from the sky. The group looks towards the dinosaur again, saying that beasts like these ruled the land, and that they're lucky to've survived under them. They have a hard time not assuming any similarity. Arrivar/Meila then speak up and say that they'll have to move on. They're repelling the rulers' lines. With that, and with Demiurge looking at the Archaeopteryx real quick, he just keeps moving.

They progress through more and more of the trees, staving off more creatures and soon going uphill. As they do, they slowly come more and more into a clearing, at which they begin to notice a strange thing: a line of dinosaurs leading deeper in. Deonsys/Arrivar look on and wonder what's going on over there, those guys are up to. Gidere/Rugar remark that it looks like they're organizing into something. Could these beasts be organizing for something? Either way, they better avoid that line, and keep on trucking.

They progress more and more, when one of the party members suddenly declares that they're nearing the heart of the beasts. One more confirmation that they want to continue, and they press on. As they do, they begin to notice a shadow swooping over the ground. Curious, they look up, and see another one of those dinosaurs, one boasting a beak, leathery wings, and a short tail. It seems to be one of the dinosaurs standing guard. Upon noticing the group, it suddenly dives downwards, before using its wings to stop itself short before the party. Deonsys/Gidere remark that they're too deep in to turn back! They just gotta get through this thing, and they'll get at the core of the issue!

With that, the party each gears up, and gets into battle with the '''Pterodactyl'''. The creature is pretty tough, boasting some fairly thick defenses as well as powerful magic. The party battles the beast more and more, before eventually overwhelming it. The monster lets out a cry, before falling back, unable to fight anymore. With them down, the party catches their breath. They look over the pterodactyl, as if trying to gauge whether or not it's going to do anything. And, sure enough, it does nothing. They sigh and back away, before Arrivar/Gidere says that now's their chance to strike at the heart of these beasts.
----
They advance further in. They go more and more, soon approaching a cliff-face, the line of dinosaurs ending there. They approach, and soon find a sight they didn't expect. Many of the party seem terrified, while Demiurge himself is shocked by the appearance before them. At the cliff-face, the line stopping before it, is a creature the size of a hill. It boasts reddish scales, muscular body parts, and a jawline with dangerous-looking teeth. Those that look on might recognize this creature as a Tyrannosaurus Rex, though in game, it's referred to only as '''Lord of the Land'''. None of the party seems willing to stand up to it, and instead can only watch.

One of the raptors approach, them seeming somewhat worried. The Lord of the Land looks down at it, seeming to investigate it for anything. Upon seeing nothing, it gives a sneer, the velociraptor quaking. It gets down on its knees and bows to the beast. The Lord of the Land rears dangerously close, before lifting a foot up in the air. The camera pulls up just as it slams it down, complete with a loud squelching noise. The dinosaurs back in the line seem to stumble back in worry. The Lord of the Land lifts its foot and steps back, unveiling a mess that only partially shows up on camera. It then waves its head towards the mess, at which many of the dinosaurs at the front of the line rush forth to gnaw at the jam-like remnants of the failure. 

The party's very unnerved, Meila/Arrivar saying that there's no way they can take this thing on now! Especially not with all of those creatures with it! Deonsys/Rugar say that they can't just leave that beast alone. Last time they did, their people could only run and lose pieces of themselves to that super-sized monster. As they speak, Gidere/Arrivar point out that the beast seems to be talking. They look back, and sure enough, the Lord of the Land's brought its head down to speak with some of the non-feasting dinosaurs. They each try to motion in the direction of Grutal while bawking some sort of reply to it. It sneers again before facing the direction, visibly licking its lips as it looks towards it. At this, the group realizes that whether they like it or not, they'll have to deal with this monster again.

For now, though, they must withdraw. They've done all they can to the dinosaur forces.
===Finale===
;Jusis 6th

The party's back at base. They appear to've discussed all of the information they'd garnered thus far, meaning everyone here knows about the mighty creature deep in the Uninhabitable Lands. Rugar says that that monster led the overpowering creatures that lorded over neanderthal kind. It's a violent beast that only seeks its own entertainment. Even its cohorts are seen as mere tools to that beast. Meila says that that thing only eats, and if it doesn't eat those other monsters, then it'll go after the rest of them. Deonsys says that it won't matter what they have, their forces won't be able to withstand an attack from that monster.

Demiurge can then say "Not once upon a time" or "Don't talk like that". Hearing that, Rugar supposes the dragon has a point. They aren't the same creatures as those that were scared by the monster. They've managed to slay several of them thus far. Gidere says that they've done more than they could've imagined already, who says they can't destroy the Lord of the Land? Arrivar supposes that they each have  point. What's some smelly monster like that have on the most intelligent creatures in the world? Meila brings up that they can't just rely on being able to beat the creature right now.

Meila points out that there are a lot of people here, and that these are supposed to be the basis for the future. Deonsys remarks that she's right. If that beast gets too close, then they could kiss that future goodbye. Arrivar says that if they're going to make this work, then they'll have to divide up. Demiurge plus three allies to confront the monster, while the remainders escort the whole of Grutal out of here. Rugar says that this is, unfortunately, their best course of action. In the meantime, they should prepare themselves, while keeping an eye out for when the monster makes their move. 

So, the goal is to keep on the normal schedule while making sure each party member is prepared for the oncoming fight.

;Jusis 6th - Jusis 10th

There isn't a lot of time to prepare, so players should make the most of their time. Throughout this, players can see the whole of Grutal be deconstructed, various building parts being packed up and getting ready to be moved. Wrap up Social Links, level up in the enemy filled areas, and garner the equipment you think you'll need.

;Jusis 11th

On this day, the neanderthal group that the player helped find a while ago rushes up to the party and says that the monsters are moving, that the Lord of the Land is taking the front while the other dinosaurs are lingering back. Hearing that, Rugar says that it's time. Who goes out to face it, who helps move the neanderthals out of here? The player is allowed to organize their party in this moment. And with the team organized, the group heads out to engage the terrifying beast.

Out they came. They walked along the path out of Grutal and out towards the Uninhabitable Lands. And as they approach, they can hear the smashing noises of tremendous footsteps. Each party member holds their appropriate weapon and glares on wearily. Then, out comes that Lord of the Land, no other dinosaurs beside it. It stamps forwards, before spying the party between it and its quarry. Seeing them, it'd begin increasing in speed, stamping faster and faster towards the party. As it does, Demiurge can say "This is for our future!" or "We can't fall today!" With that rally, the party tenses up, as the monster comes upon them. And with this, the final boss of the Stone Age begins, them battling the '''Lord of the Land'''.

Unfortunately, it turns out that the beast is alarmingly powerful. As players battle the beast, they may come to realize that they are ill prepared for it. It boasts powerful physical force, powerful magical force, and seems to resist much damage and ailments. It resists damage, and will keep on its dangerous assault. Eventually, the player might even find that Demiurge can't take anymore. After receiving a fatal blow, a cutscene plays that shows the young dragon dropping to his knees, struggling to keep upright and panting. As he pants, the dangerous dinosaur looms in real close, it growling and its jaws parting. Demiurge looks up fearful, though he tries to stay defiant. He says that he's supposed to lead the world... But the Lord of the Land either can't understand him or doesn't care, for suddenly it lunges at him, clamping its jaws down...
----
After that, the camera takes place from a first person, it represented by what seems to be an eyelid opening. The "eye" blinks a little more, before the first person suddenly lunges up into a sitting position, panting. They look around, seeing that they're in the middle of nowhere, the area seeming similar in structure to where the previous fight took, save for different foliage. As they look around, a soft voice calls out "My Demi..." The first person turns towards the source, finding that pale dragon that started Demiurge's journey.

The first person, apparently Demiurge, stands up and asks where is he? The pale dragon doesn't respond and steps closer, saying that it may feel like a bad dream, but Demiurge's done a great job so far. Thanks to him, civilization is able to climb out of the Stone Age and into a shiny new era. Hearing that, Demiurge seems to realize that that fight with the Lord of the Land wasn't a dream. He asks what happened to his friends. The pale dragon responds it's been 500 years since that fight. His friends aren't like him: too much time passes, they die.

Demiurge seems shocked at that, but the pale dragon softly pats his head, saying that he's grown so much already. The camera pans away and reveals Demiurge now seeming around a foot taller, boasting horns and a longer tail and pair of wings. He does seem to notice his growing, but seems a bit preoccupied with the brand new knowledge. At this, players are allowed to switch classes based on how much they've bonded with the previous party members. After that, the pale dragon says that unfortunately, his journey has only just begun. Mortal kind is still learning the ropes, and they still need the dragon's guidance.

She steps aside and motions down the trail, saying that civilization's started over in that direction, and that he should really see for himself what kind of world he's crafted thus far. With that, Demiurge follows her motions and goes along the trail, at which the first of many branches are encountered, this one depending on which of the five party members were allowed to teach the neanderthals more than the other.

===Early===
;Jusis 12th

Demiurge steps forwards more and more, before spying a strange set of structures. There are several houses set up on wheels, them being slightly smaller than the cabin that hosted the intelligentsia before. Each house is hooked up to large horses and rhinos, each feral, while there are several intelligent animals around and examining tilled fields. Demiurge approaches more and more, before soon approaching one of the tillers. And as he does, said tiller looks towards him, and gives pause. 

The tiller wears a rugged brown tunic. He's a faller tall wolf guy, and is holding a scythe. He stares wide-eyed at Demiurge, who can either say "Hello" or "Can you speak?" Upon saying either, the wolf heaves, as if stress just rolled off of his body. He stands upright and says that he thought he might've been one of those monsters. Demiurge asks what he means, to which the wolf is confused. He asks if he just woke up or something, the dragon nodding.

Either way, the wolf greets himself as '''Osrus''', and Demiurge greets himself as such, before shaking his hand. Osrus says that there're scouts around that are supposed to keep an eye out for monsters, he's actually surprised that Demiurge slipped through without getting noticed. He says that if Demiurge's smart, then he should report him to the leader. Hearing that, the dragon understands, and asks Osrus to lead the way. And so, the scythe-wielder says that he'll wrap up his business here, and then direct him...
----

After that, Osrus leads Demiurge through the many wheeled buildings, before stopping at a red one, this one being a little bigger than the rest. Osrus opens the way forwards, and Demiurge steps in after. The duo head in, before spying a duo within. Seated on a throne was a wolverine man wearing a tiger pelt, him apparently scrying tallies on what looks like a chore list. And beside him is a wolf pelt-dressed lemur lady with a whip at her hip, a feral pangolin at her feet. The duo look at the dragon cautiously, the lemur seeming to reach for her whip in anticipation. 

Osrus says that this man is intelligent, he's not one of those Monsters. Hearing that, the two seemed to relax, though were still curious. The wolverine says that he's never seen any creature out here like Demiurge. What with these thick scales and wings and... As he explains more and more, the wolverine narrows his eyes and seems to repeat the traits he listed, as if recalling them from somewhere. His eyes suddenly widened, before he steps away and approaches a set of shelves. He searches them, before drawing out a scroll. He flicks it open and looks it over.

The wolverine seems to perk up as he reads it, before realizing what this is. He explains that at the beginning of civilization, there existed six creatures with greater intelligence than any being back then. They'd worked together to try and organize the creatures that'd birth modern day civilization. They worked long and hard, though in the end, a large portion of those intelligent people would be slain in battle with the Monsters. Among them was a divine creature that personally chose the route their teachings should go, eventually leading them to fighting to top the food chain.

He rolls up the scroll before putting it away, remarking that the scroll included a description of the intelligent creatures that led those dumb animals. And among them was the divine creature that led them down the path of survival. But, that creature was said to be slain, and there've been no telling of another creature like it. Demiurge says that he was actually there, he was that creature. The wolverine scratches his chin curiously, but for now supposes that they'll have to look into the species later. For now, introductions. Osrus' already introduced himself, the wolverine's called '''Deni''', and the lemur's called '''Hangle'''. He's carefully studied the word of Gidere, and has been leading the people of the traveling village while also preparing jobs for each of them. Hangle's been teaching the group how to tame the ferals, though no one would dare get near one of the Monsters. 

For now, Deni feels that he should have a word with one of the scouts. Which way did Demiurge come from? The dragon answers, at which Deni replies that he'd like to see '''Langi''' in his cabin. Osrus says that chief's orders are chief's orders, but he himself can't handle much, and he can't tell what Demiurge's thing is. Hangle says that if they're so scared, then they can take little '''Chubi''' along with them. At the name, the pangolin seems to hop excitedly, before racing off beside the two. Hangle says that he's pretty tough for a small guy, and he can scare off other baddies with his stench. 

With the little guy in their party, Osrus says that they'll be back. And with that, Demiurge's first mission in the new world begins.

Demiurge, Osrus, and Chubi were sent out in the direction of what was once known as the Uninhabitable Lands. Now, they're called '''Monster Capital'''. The group presses onwards, Osrus telling Demiurge that the dragon should learn a bit about what goes on. Osrus himself isn't much of a fighter, but he can help to maintain everyone's health, and Chubi's good for taking blows and scaring off ferals. Hangle's been training the ferals under their employ, and has made sure to instruct the troopers on what commands they accept. He says that since Demiurge's new, he himself will handle the commands.

As they walk closer towards the Monster Capital, the previously worn trail having a slightly worn grassy path with more foliage around the general area, a growl deeper in bellows out. Demiurge and Osrus stumble back while Chubi seems weary, him tensing up and raising his tail in anticipation. And then, out comes a gray wolf, it flanked by a duo of wolves slightly smaller than it. It glares at the trio, and seems to tense up. Osrus reaches for his scythe and says that there shouldn't be predatory ferals this close to the path. He tells Demiurge to back away slowly, the dragon taking a few steps back while eyeing the wolf wearily. They get closer and closer and seem to get more and more threatening. Osrus says that it's looking more and more like they can't avoid a fight. 

With that, the wolves rush in, and players are forced to fight '''Alpha and Pack'''. This serves as a good introduction to fighting in this route, as it shows players how Osrus can remove his own HP to heal allies and use an attack to restore some of his HP, while also showing how Chubi can cast ailments, earth magic, and can use a certain skill to make a target flee from the fight. With their combined forces, the group is able to defeat the Alpha and Pack, and with that, the canines are overwhelmed and flee. After that, Osrus sighs and says that they should be clear now, before sheathing his scythe. 
----
Following that, Osrus says that they don't need to go too far into the Monster Capital to find Langi. He should be hidden in one of the trees near the main trail. They dip in, and find more of those ferals in the area. Osrus remarks that there should be plenty Monsters around here, and that either these creatures are being very brave, or something's happened. Whatever the case, they still need to find Langi. They head further and further in, until eventually coming upon a tree. This one seems to be clawed at the trunk, and Osrus looks into it. He remarks that it looks like Langi's missing. Surely he'd have come back to the village by now if a creature was chasing him, right? Demiurge can say, either, "Who could use help" or "We should look for him".

Osrus is aware, and says that their best bet is to try and track down whatever creature attacked. The wolf signals to Chubi to do something. The pangolin nods excitedly, before leaning to the trunk and sniffing. After that, it began to sniff at the ground and follow a trail, Osrus saying that Chubi must've caught a scent. He says that they should follow, and with that the party keeps on walking, now granted a new destination. 

They follow and follow, before eventually arriving near a cliff-face. Ahead, they can see a chimp man in a green tunic, a blowdart tube in his hand, racing away from a dinosaur, this one boasting a bit of fur and claws as long as swords. The chimp man finds himself up to the cliff-face and cornered, before turning to face the dinosaur. The creature comes closer and seems ready to swing its claw down on him, before Osrus leaps up to drive the blade of his scythe into its back! The dinosaur growls out in alarm before shaking, managing to drive the wolf off of him and towards the chimp.

Demiurge and Chubi race around the dinosaur to get at the two, the chimp helping the tiller off of the ground. The clawed dinosaur, meanwhile, glowers and flares its claws outwards, them shaking in anticipation of driving through them. Osrus asks the chimp if he's alright, referring to him as '''Langi'''. The blowdart-man says that he ran fast enough, but for now they have to deal with this Monster. With that, the creature gives a loud roar, and the player's thrust into battle with the '''Therizinosaurus'''. The creature seems to solely rely on physical power, though it seems able to call forth some big cats to ally with it, though Chubi should be able to scare those off. Langi, meanwhile, can lay traps to make it so it can't damage allies, or inflict ailments to limit its movement.

Eventually, the group's able to overwhelm the beast, who's forced to turn around and race away. With it running, Osrus turns towards Langi and asks what happened, to which Langi replies that the Monsters have been at bay for a little while, but that clawed one came close to the border of the Capital. He got its attention, and had to run. Now that they've gotten rid of the beast, they should be safe now. Though, Langi can't help but ask what Osrus is doing out here. The wolf answers that chief Deni wanted to see him after the stranger popped up, the one that helped to stave off that Monster. 

Langi can't help but feel like this isn't good for him. Though, he can't ignore a direct order. So, with that the party heads on back to the village.
----
With that, the group is back in the cabin that the wolverine and lemur were found at. Deni sees the chimp, and says that a new intelligent creature had made it into their confines, and they haven't been hailed by Langi. Deni asks why this is, to which the primate replies that he hasn't seen this creature until he came to save him from the Monster. Osrus does affirm that the chimp didn't seem to recognize the creature until Demiurge was right upon them. Deni strokes his chin and continues to ponder where this boy came from. As he's pondering, Osrus and Langi do have something else to talk about. 

Deni asks what they mean, to which they explain. They approached the Monster Capital, and found not only a lack of Monsters, but ordinary fauna lingering in the Capital. Hearing that, Deni and Hangle both seem curious. Langi says that a clawed creature approached the main path, but that's about it. The Monsters haven't been unveiling themselves as much as they have been. Hearing this, Deni can't help but feel a little suspicious. He supposes that their best bet is to investigate. 

Deni says that starting tomorrow, there should be an investigation. He shall organize some scouts to head out, while he expects Osrus and Chubi to return to their duty. As for Demiurge... For now, he doesn't know anything about them, so he supposes that they'll have to investigate into the dragon's ability soon. Demiurge nods in understanding and says that he'd love to help the place. For now, though, it's getting late. The group nods. Chubi runs back to Langi's side, Osrus and Langi steps out to return to their positions, and Demiurge himself begins to leave, only for Hangle to clear her throat to get his attention. 

Demiurge turns to face her, and she replies that the village's been making sure to record each creature they come across. Demiurge himself was busy until now, so she wishes to record his body tonight. Deni says that this would do wonders for them, and Demiurge himself supposes that he has no problem with that. Hangle leads Demiurge back into the cabin, before he's made to lay over a bed in a fairly unremarkable corner. Hangle herself sets up a canvas while also grasping some charcoal. And with it, she tells the dragon to simply lay down, act natural, and she'll do everything else. So, Demiurge begins to rest, briefly reminiscing over that Pale Dragon looming above him like a blanket when he'd go to sleep... That memory comforts him, and he's soon able to rest while Hangle begins to etch out the dragon's figure.

;Jusis 13th

Demiurge wakes up to an empty room. He stretches and begins to head out, stepping into the chief's main cabin and finding it looking pretty empty, save for Chubi who appears to be on guard duty. The pangolin looks at the dragon wearily, and sensing a slightly threatening aura from the creature, Demiurge raises his hands as a show of trust, before carefully walking out the front door without making any sudden movements. He soon makes it out.

Once out, he finds several grass tunic-wearing people near the edge of the village, Deni and Hangle in front of the many of them. Deni appears to be addressing the many of them, the wolverine holding a scroll and charcoal. He says that there's apparently strange happenings in the Monster Capital, in regards to the Monsters themselves. As such, he requires the teams to look into the area and understand what's going on. Could they be migrating? Holing up? Whatever the case is, they need to find out. 

Demiurge can see Langi among the green-wearing group, and looking closely at the scroll, he can see a map of the general area, with him labeling who should be where. He reads out some names, indicating that they will be heading into the Monster Capital. And, sure enough, Langi is among them. Demiurge steps away and searches the general area again, finding a few tillers among the village, including Osrus. Seeing the dragon, he greets the dragon and asks how he slept. Demiurge talks about Hangle, and also says he saw Deni organizing the teams for exploring the Monster Capital. 

Upon hearing that Langi is among them, Osrus seems to perk up with worry. Osrus remarks that Deni's probably plotting to send them into the heart of Monster territory. He keeps on tending to the field, him watering the seeds he's just placed. He begins to put the soil back in place, before saying that they really should check and make sure he'll be ok. Demiurge asks whether he's ok leaving or not, but Osrus says that he's gotten the material in place, and that he might be able to get out there and help somebody. He says that maybe Chubi will be willing to hang out with them after they spent time with him yesterday. 

Demiurge says that they really should keep an eye on those guys in case something dangerous happens. About 10 guys were sent out on the mission. Osrus nods and says that he'll make sure he's up to the task. With that, the next mission starts.

;Jusis 13th - 22nd

With this, players are tasked with heading out to travel deeper into the Monster Capital, them flanked by Osrus and Chubi. With this, they head out through the trail, finding more and more fauna. As they go on, they'll soon find that there're a few of the scoutsmen that are assailed by dangerous creatures. Though, there's plenty of information to understand between each. First, however, they have to save a duo of scoutsmen, a blue jay lady and a fox man that are being assailed by a '''Big Bear''', who the party has to beat. Once it's down, the two scoutsmen say that the parties put some distance between each other to try and not be a big target, but that seemed to lead to them being easier to be picked off. Osrus says that they should be more careful, to which they nod emphatically, before saying that they'll lie in hiding and simply get the lay of the land from here.

With that, they keep on forwards, heading deeper into the Monster Capital. And as they head in deeper, they can spy some pretty large bones. As the dragon looks over them, he can associate them with various dinosaurs he saw in the past. He's really curious about them and actually comes in closer to investigate. Osrus asks him what he's up to, to which the dragon remarks that these look just like some of the Monsters. Upon hearing that, Osrus leans in closer, and remarks that indeed they are. He leans in closer and remarks that they look dirty and aged. Demiurge asks if they were struck down, to which Osrus remarks that these bones look to be in tact for an attack. As they search, they can find a quad of scoutsmen hiding in the ribcage of one of the Monster skeletons.

Seeing him, Osrus asks what happened. One of the scoutsmen say that a couple of those Monsters popped up and rushed them. They hid, but they continued on to the rest of the group deeper into the heart of the Capital. They say that they actually lowered their guard from the lack of Monsters. Osrus looks over the group and sees there's a lack of Langi. He says that the group should be careful now, and that they themselves will seek out the remainders. Hearing that, the four scoutsmen nod, and begin to race away. 

With that, they race deeper in, finding some of the grass being more and more dead, while it looks as if there're chunks of earth scooped out of the ground as if someone were biting at it. And the further they go in, they can find more and more skeletons, before coming to a halt as a foul stench fills the area, even alarming the pangolin. And as they head deeper in, they can find aged Monster corpses that look as if they were chewed down to the bone. Osrus looks over the creatures, several being bigger than him, and he remarks that there are very few creatures that could do this much damage to them.

They head further and further in, before soon finding the remaining four scoutsmen racing about, including Langi. They're trying desperately to evade a Monster, this one being a creature with a thick coat of scales with a trio of horns on its face. It also appears to be dressed in a layer of leaves as if they're a blanket. The creature's bull rushing the group, either trying desperately to not get gored, though a goat man manages to be struck by a non-horn and hurled back. Seeing this, Demiurge, Osrus, and Chubirace in to engage the Monster. Seeing them group up, Langi would come to join them and says that they came in at just the right time. With that, the battle with the '''Triceratops''' begins, the monster being a fairly defensive beast that wields a dangerous attack, though it's always a single target Smash and always has a turn of start up.

Eventually, the group's able to overwhelm it, the Monster weakened and forced to kneel down, before flopping on its side. Seeing the Monster down, the group collectively sighs in relief and each pockets their weapon. Langi says that he can't believe that they came here. Before he can accost Osrus more, the scoutsmen come near him, saying that '''Derris''', the goat man, was pretty badly hurt. Now that they're safe, they should return and see to it that he's fixed up. Langi understands that, and says they should return.
----
With that, each scoutsmen are back in the village, each greeted by Deni and Hangle. Deni says that there's a lot of problems right now, as he addresses Demiurge and Osrus. He says that they're lucky that he has to consult with Derris' recovery and whatever information the other scoutsmen have gathered. And Hangle says that, though she doesn't agree with the methods, she is grateful they kept Chubi safe. And he seems to've gotten a little stronger, even.

Deni and Hangle retreat, and with that, Osrus supposes that all they can do now is wait. Though, still, those Monsters... Clearly whatever is going on over there is beyond their imagination. They just hope the scoutsmen, Deni, and Hangle can make more sense of this. 
----
;Jusis 23rd

On this day, the classic group is in Deni's cabin again. Demiurge, Osrus, and Langi are on one side, while Chubi is hanging on the side of Deni and Hangle. Here, Deni says that he's spoken with many of the scoutsmen, and come to some interesting conclusions. Conclusions the likes of which could change the course of history for all in the village. The scouts have reported that, though there is still wildlife there in the Monster Capital, there're many signs of the Monsters felled in droves.

Hearing this, Osrus perks up and asks how this happened. Deni says that at the moment, there's no way to be certain. These Monsters have been god-like lords for as long as intelligent life has existed on the planet, that's why they've made sure that their village could hop into their homes and race away at a moment's notice. But for there to be as many bodies in the Monster Capital, not to mention a lack of nests... He hates being optimistic, but this could be the generation that ends the Monsters' reign over the world. Osrus, Langi, and Demiurge each seem excited at the news, and Chubi joins in their excitement. 

Demiurge briefly thinks back to the Stone Age, about his friends back then. He remembered the terror those creatures bore into them, and to be able to punish them for that... Demiurge says that they should press on and get rid of this threat. Deni, however, says that they still need time. For now, they need to identify the locations of the remaining Monsters. After all, the nests that once strewed the place are currently absent. He says that he'll have some of his scouts try and find their tracks, then find their current position, and then determine whether or not they're in a good position to assail them. So, for now, he'd like this news to be secret to the rest of the village. 

The group seems to understand, and thus pull away...
----
The three are hanging out at the field Osrus tilled at, Langi remarking that Osrus could've been really hurt back there, not just with the Monster but with the chief as well. Osrus says that he got scared. If they didn't come in when they did, those Monsters could've... Langi sighs and says that Osrus isn't really meant to be out on the field. Still, the wolf says that he won't just stand by and let him be wiped out. Langi gave pause, before looking over his weapon a little bit. He says that he'll be examining his stocks, before walking off.

Osrus sighs and goes back to his own field, intent on making sure the field's still good. Osrus asks the dragon if he did act rash, to which the player can answer "We had to" or "If we didn't..." Osrus sighs. He says that Deni desires safety amongst the people, especially on account of powerful creatures out there. He'd designated certain individuals to maintaining the peace, and wished for as few deaths as possible. Deni tended to be scary, but he's usually scary just because he's scared. The chief always gets saddled with the mission Gidere and his allies set up, and a part of that involves keeping numbers up.

For now, Osrus supposes that he'll have to play safe, and Demiurge himself will need to learn his role sometime soon. He's actually surprised Deni hasn't brought one up earlier, though things have gotten a little chaotic. And with those Monsters on the decline, things might continue to be strange. He suggests Demiurge should rest now, who knows what tomorrow will bring.
===Medium===
;Jusis 24th

The next morning, it seems Demiurge has been called to the chief's cabin yet again. Deni greets the dragon, and said dragon notices that Hangle's got more paper and charcoal. Deni says that they'll be multitasking today. They got one pose of the dragon the other time, and now they'll be seeking out some more dynamic shots. In the meantime, Hangle will ask him a few questions, while Deni himself will consult with a few people. Demiurge asks if anyone's in trouble, to which Deni replies that that'll be decided on later.

With that, the wolverine heads out, and wishes Hangle luck in her work. The lemur nods, and thus the wolverine's out. Meanwhile, Hangle approaches the wall, draws a spear placed on it, before carefully extending it towards the dragon and asks him to hold it. Demiurge grabs it, before thumbing it a little, before swiveling it around, trying to match Gidere's pose. Hangle asks him to hold that pose, and thus goes onto draw. The dragon nods in understanding, and keeps on holding. 

Hangle keeps on drawing, before asking the dragon about what Monsters they spotted at the Capital. Demiurge explains a bit about their experience exploring the Capital, including the fauna and how few were actually threatened by Monsters themselves. Hangle nods in understanding as she keeps on drawing. And as she does, she asks about how well Chubi and Osrus performed out there, at which he asks if either of them are in danger. Hangle simply replies that nothing extreme will happen to any of them. 

The now nervous dragon finds himself forced to talk about their experience, to which Hangle simply "Hmms" in response. She keeps on drawing, before walking around to get a different angle of him. After a bit of that, she asks him where he's from and how reproduction works. Demiurge says he never asked about reproduction, but he did come from a city out in the sky. Hangle furrows her brow at that explanation, and asks him to take this seriously. The dragon assures that he's being serious. The lemur then steps behind him to get another angle, and keeps on drawing.

She asks if he's been tracking his age. Demiurge answers that he's been on this planet for, at least, 500 years apparently. Hangle mutters in annoyance as she draws. She says that he must be exaggerating. Demiurge assures that he's being serious. Hangle asks if there're other of his kind, to which the dragon answers, of course, though the lot of them are still in the sky. One of them came down with him, but he's not exactly sure where she is. Hangle soon wraps up the drawing, before coming to the other side, and drawing.

Hangle says that she'll record what Demiurge said, but leave much of it in questionable quotations marks. She finishes drawing, before setting the drawings down safely on a nearby desk. She tells Demiurge that he should go check up on Osrus real quick. If Deni's there, he should be able to lead him towards Langi. Demiurge nods in understanding, before walking out. As he does, he looks back at Hangle, who's still looking curiously at the notes she took.
----
Demiurge soon makes it to Osrus' patch, where the wolf's making sure that everything's in good graces. And looking over him is Deni, who seems to be slightly miffed. And once he arrives, Deni notices the dragon, and greets him. He asks how Hangle did, to which Demiurge answers that she drew him expertly and asked plenty of questions. He nods in understanding, and says that he was just speaking with Osrus. While he understands wanting to help a friend, that wolf still acted out of line... for now. 

Deni opts to walk and talk, bringing Demiurge with him as he walks elsewhere in the village. Demiurge asks what he means, to which Demiurge points out that Osrus and the dragon managed to act beyond the call of duty and did what the team of scouts were unable to do. He's currently a farmer, but Deni's in the process of assigning him to scouting training. He's gonna assign him to Langi, seeing as that chimp managed to hold his own against the Monster. Demiurge asks what they scouts are gonna do, to which he says that with the news of the Monsters, he can't help but feel... invested.

The Monsters had ruled the land for ages now, and they've been hounding down the various intelligent lives. But if those creatures are in as dire a position as they seem to be, then could they be... on their way out? If they could be, then Deni suspects that they'll be able to make a world free from Monsters. He wishes to see to it that that world come to fruition. Hearing that, Demiurge can't help but feel slight excitement. His friends had been overwhelmed by these Monsters ages ago, and if he could give them what for after last time...

Demiurge asks if he can help to take care of the Monster problem. Deni replies that he was intending to reach out to him, and in fact, he's glad that he's tagging along with him to Langi. They soon arrive before the chimp, who seems ready for them. Deni says that Demiurge, Osrus, and Chubi will be meeting with Langi for the foreseeable future. He wants them to be ready for field work at a moment's notice before he gives them their next mission. 

Langi nods in affirmation and assures that he'll get these guys ready. Deni nods, before heading back. Langi looks at the dragon, before remarking that this is a surprise. He'd have expected to be disallowed feeding for a short while, but if his "punishment" is keeping the A Team up to snuff, then that's good by him. Demiurge asks what the lot of them will do, to which Langi replies that they'll have to keep on good business. The lot of them should meet by Osrus' field starting tomorrow, and he'll be ensuring their training. Demiurge nods, and says he looks forwards to working with him. 

For now, Langi says that he'll spend the evening getting the lay of the local land, and come tomorrow, they'll start exercises.

;Jusis 25th - 27th

The next day, the group meets up, Chubi at Demiurge's side and Langi stepping up to Osrus, who's appeared to finished up tending his field. Osrus says that he knew the set up, and says he's ready to put himself out for the village. Langi says that now, the four of them are going to work towards handling smaller jobs in the village. Despite villagers supposed to remain in the village, they sometimes tend to either lose stuff, they wish to ask for stuff, or their fellow ferals have dashed off somewhere. As such, Langi says that the three of them are going to accept a few jobs, and work on completing those jobs. For now, it's time for the group to walk around town, and find out who needs a hand.
*'''Fennel''' - A duck man at the edge of the village, he says he keeps a wolf at his field to defend it, just in case. However, one night he'd find it'd run away, its tracks seeming to head in the direction opposite the Monster Capital. Upon searching the tracks, the group will find that it'd gotten in a scuffle with a dangerous feral bear, looking bloody. The group's forced to step in and fight off the bear, before they can send the poor canine back to Fennel.
*'''Brenkt''' - A dart frog lady that seems to be working with some herbs. She says that she found that if you ate some of this stuff, then it really calms you. Deni caught her leaving the area, so she hasn't been able to get more. She asks the group to get some. This leads them to the area opposite the Monster Capital, where they seek out some bushes with the funky herbs, which also feature enemies that're caught sleeping at the start of combat. Going through them, the group's able to collect the ''Relaxation Herbs'', and are able to submit them to the lady.
*'''Denny''' - The blue jay scoutsman from the last mission. Denny says that when they were chased off by that bear earlier, he wound up breaking his blowgun. And no matter how he works with it, he can't quite get it right. Besides, part of him thinks that he should get his weapon in better condition. So, he asks if the group can gather some thick wood from the Trail. The group goes to the destination, and can find the stuff, only to be thrust into a horde fight with a bunch of birds. After scaring them off, the group's able to get the wood, and return the Denny.

These missions lead the group into the '''Brush Trail''', an area of thick foliage featuring a thin trail that stretches miles away, while it's flanked by various thickened bushes and flowers. It features many different feral animals and occasional material to shop with.

;Jusis 28th

At this, when the gang wakes up, Langi's quick to round them up and say that the boss gave them orders. Osrus asks what the mission is, to which Langi replies that a few scoutsmen were able to track down the Monster pack. They've gone a fair distance away from the Monster Capital, but right now, the boss' suggesting they steer away from that trail. He wants to establish a route to the Monster pack, but wants to leave the Capital still. Osrus asks why, to which Langi replies that there are many creatures making that place a home, and they shouldn't mess with the habitat.

Osrus says that they're more familiar with that Monster Capital, and as such it'd be simpler to go through. Meanwhile, if they're to take a different route towards the enemy, who knows what they could encounter? Osrus asks if it's absolutely required, to which Langi said that Deni said, quote, "Avoid the Capital if you can". The two, and Chubi, each turn towards Demiurge, who looks at each of them curiously. Langi says that, considering how well he's helped them out before, then it's probably up to him to decide on their path. Demiurge seems ready to speak against this, though remembers that he is supposed to lead the world. And here, Demiurge decides that they shall set out, and decide on their path from there.

;With this, one of many different branches occur. It's not prompted by a simple Menu Choice. No, instead, players are prompted to head through one of two different locations. The article will detail either route, and will show off the results later.
====Clear the Monster Capital====
;Jusis 28th - Iuli 10th

The group opts to travel through the Monster Capital. Here, players go through the familiar location and deal with a few relatively low-level enemies. Langi says that, according to the scoutsmen, the disappearance of those Monsters had led to various creatures setting up homes along the trail. If they're to go through with this option, then they are to scatter the various ferals that set up residence. They'll have to go beyond the Monster nest area for this mission.

Upon approaching, Langi explains that their best bet towards securing this path requires them to go along the main marching path. And when they get there, they'll have to seek out creatures that linger on the path, before beating them. Langi says that they'll have to be careful. They shouldn't fret too much, however, he doubts there'll be anything worse than those Monsters in here.

They step forwards, pressing on along the path. True to form, the normal animals are nearby. However, near the foremost part of the path, the party will notice a family of wolves. Seeing them, Demiurge remarks that this shouldn't be too tough. Osrus says that that's why they chose this path, after all. They should just deal with these creatures fast. If they're too slow, all sorts of ferals could join the fray. With that, the fight with the '''Wolf Family''' begins. It's fairly simple, the group battling four different wolves of varying ages and strengths. After a few turns, lesser ferals might join the fight, but they shouldn't be too much trouble. 

With them beaten, the wolf family flees the area. Seeing them gone, the party each withdraw their weapons. Demiurge says that this is remarkably easy. Osrus says that they'll secure their path in no time at this rate. Langi declares that they should be careful. Any amount of creatures could be dangerous if they're in great enough numbers. Chubi nods in affirmation. With that, Langi says that they're partway through the mission. Probably two more and this path should be secure.

They kept on moving. Forwards they went, battling against various other ferals in their way. Their path would eventually take them to the former nest of the Monsters. Except right now, a bunch of ferals were grouping into the area, several deer and other like-fauna grouped in the general area. The antlered-ones would see the group, and seem to look at them accusingly, seeming prepared to battle if the need showed itself. Seeing this, Langi says that if they press on through this path, then these creatures will make it a little more tough. Demiurge asks if they can go around, to which Langi replies that these guys will spread out for more food, suggesting that even if they were to move out, then they may run into these guys and incur an attack. He says their best bet will be to scare them off. Osrus supposes that if that's the case, then they better get to work.

And so, the group battles the '''Deer Horde'''. They're each fairly agile and seem geared towards Stabbing and Wind attacks. Fortunately, smart players should be able to work around their strengths, especially as they reduce the enemy numbers more and more and reduce their attack power. Eventually, they're able to get rid of the last of the Deer Horde, leaving the pack to race off and leave the area unoccupied. Osrus says that that looks like the last of the horde. Langi says that they're so close to securing the route. If they press forwards more and more, they'll be able to complete their goal. 

They press on more and more, heading out to the very end of the area. Once there, right before they approach where the Monsters are said to linger, they find that a pair of bears are sitting on the trail. Looking at them, Osrus says that there's no way they can leave these things just here. These things look pretty tough, and sure enough, they each look bigger than Demiurge. Langi says that they'll make the necessary preparations, before going out.

The fight begins with the '''Big Bears'''. Indeed, they're rather dangerous. They're very physically domineering, boasting high defenses and high attack power. They also boast buffing skills, which means that they can make themselves either harder to beat, or hit harder. With some careful planning from the group, they should be able to overpower the bears, before sending them racing away from the scene. With them gone, Osrus says that that should probably be the last of them. Langi then says they should press on and make sure their route's secure.

The group presses forwards. As they do, Demiurge can't help but look back toward the Monster Capital. He'd remember how there were many fauna visible in the area. However, looking back, he can see that it's significantly less full, looking eerily empty. There's still the occasional creature in there, though it's not nearly enough. Osrus notices Demiurge had stopped, and asks him what's wrong. Demiurge just answers that he couldn't help but notice. Osrus himself looks, before pausing himself.

They give pause, before Osrus eventually speaks up and says that this is what they were after. They wanted to make sure they could get to the Monsters, so they made sure it was easier to go through here. Demiurge asks what'll happen to those they got rid of. Osrus pauses, before Langi speaks up and says that they should be seeking out other territory to live at, best case scenario. Whatever happens to the Capital itself, there's no way of knowing for now. But right now, they'll just press on. 
====Brave the Mountain Range====
;Jusis 28th - Iuli 10th

The group opts to take a more straightforward path, going from the village in the direction of the Monsters' last known location. This leads them north of the village, and beginning to step out and into the '''Mountain Range'''. The trail's fairly hazardous. It features a more calm plain adjacent from the mountain trail, though that area's walled off away from the other end of the area. So, players are required to go along the mountain trail and contend with some fairly threatening-looking creatures while trying to carefully move along the hazardous trail.

Upon approaching, Langi explains that those on the path are either flying creatures, or extremely rugged. They'll have to go from start to end to make sure they're ready to reach the new resting spot of the Monsters. The commonfolk rarely risk this path, as it typically spells hazard for those that explore, though if they're careful, they should be ok.

They press on, running into goats, big birds, sometimes hares. And as they press on, they come near some cliff-faces. And when they do, Osrus gives pause, looking over the worrying passage. He thumbs his scythe, before saying that he thinks he smells something. Langi looks on in slight worry, before reaching for his own blowgun. Chubi's even taken on a defensive pose. Demiurge looks on... when he notices several felines begin to leap down the cliffs. Langi declares that they're under siege! With that, the group's forced to battle the '''Cougar Pack''', a group of cougars that seem to fill up any lost numbers almost as quickly as they're beaten. Chubi's still able to scare the enemies off with his smell, and players should slowly get used to the enemies, however the more cougars there are in the area, the more dangerous they are.

Eventually, they're able to stave off the cougar pack, the many rushing further up the trail. Seeing that, the party withdraws their weapons, Langi saying that they got through that well enough. The chimp says he hasn't quite fought creatures like that before. Osrus says that there were an awful lot of creatures clumped together like that. Demiurge asks if that's ok, to which Langi says it depends on the feral. Some travel in packs or herds, some are more territorial and in opposition of each other. It really depends. That many pack animals suggests that they figure that many will be needed for prey up here.

Anyways, Langi says that they should keep on moving. With that, the party presses on, occasionally forced to leap up the cliffs, though before they move on, they'd have to topple a few parts of the environment in order to establish a proper passage for the travelers. This involves knocking over some loose rock and knocking down weak trees. This process would end up kicking up a few feral birds and bees and such. Seeing that, Osrus supposes that this'll have to be the best they can do to achieve their goal. They press further on.

As they do, they soon near a peak. From here, Langi remarks that they should be a little over halfway through the trail. As they press on, however, they notice a very big yak in their path, it looking on with almost judgmental eyes. Seeing it, the party's weary again, reaching for their respective weapons. Langi says that he recognizes this stance, that creature intends to fight if they get close. Osrus looks over the path. The trail they're currently on, and the one leading through the yak, appears safe. The rocky terrain bordering it, however, looks a little dangerous for either of them, Osrus remarking that one wrong step could send them careening down the mountain. Their only way seems to be through this yak.

With that, the group battles the '''Yak'''. The Yak is somewhat similar to the triceratops from before, it being a fairly physical-focused foe, albeit not as dangerous as the Monster. The group should rely on magic and ailments to wear down the Yak, before finishing it off. With its HP down, the ox shakes its head, before turning and sprinting off, clearing the trail. Osrus remarks that that thing was pretty tough. Langi says that they shouldn't worry much longer, if they keep on pushing, they should reach their destination.

They press forwards and forwards, the path now a little less hazardous as than their path up. They just need to take care of a few gaps so that they can cross. They go down more and more, before eventually arriving before the end of the Mountain Range. However, upon arriving, they see that the many, many different ferals that fled from the trees and rockslides grouped up at the end and seeming hostile towards each other. And unfortunately, their conflict is right upon the trail, where either edge appears to send them to a pit that won't be able to make it to the Monsters' location. Langi says that they'll have to scare off these ferals before they can go ahead. It looks really dangerous, so they should prepare accordingly. 

With that, the party prepares themselves, and approaches to battle the '''Raging Horde'''. It's a Horde fight featuring a fairly large variety of physical ability, though magic-wise it has a leaning towards wind, debuffs, and ailments. However, with the team's combined ability, they should be able to overwhelm the Horde, scaring off the Horde bit by bit until the cloud of enemies is gone. With the last of them away, the party retracts their weaponry, Osrus saying that that should've been the last of this trail. Langi says that they should press on and make sure their route is secure.

The group starts progressing, heading down the trail, which exits into a tree-lined path. As they progress, Demiurge notices a tree with a bird's nest in it, featuring a bird and her young, many of them squaking up a storm. Demiurge watches wearily as the mother approaches one. He sees her look towards the Mountain Range wearily, before looking opposite it, in the direction of what should be those Monsters. She then reaches down and grabs a couple of the young, before tossing them out.

Demiurge looks shaken, him recoiling back upon seeing the bird fall. Langi notices him pause, and asks what's wrong. Demiurge talks about what he saw, before Langi says that that's just something that happens in the wild. Sometimes mothers need to cull the young so they can feed the greater portion of the family. Sometimes they need to cull them to stop predators from finding them. Sometimes the young just don't grow good enough to fly the nest. It may not be pretty, but it's just one of the factors of life that certain animals deem necessary for survival. Demiurge asks if Deni would ever think this is necessary, to which Langi says that he'll do his best to ensure the people's survival.
====Conclude====
;Here is where either decision meets. As of now, though there are some variations depending on the choice, the full effect isn't clear until next era.

After either route, the group arrives upon an area where the wildlife appears to be hidden off towards the edge of the land, it said to be '''T'rere'''. The group steps further in, and Langi stops them, pointing towards a ridge deeper into the area. Said spot he's pointing at reveals what seems to be those raptors that Demiurge's familiar with from the Stone Age. Except instead of hunting, they appear to be walking in a particular pattern, which Osrus attributes to that of a guard. With that, Langi supposes that that means those Monsters indeed are holed up here.

With this confirmation, Langi says that they secured the route and confirmed their target. Now, they'll report back to Deni, and prepare for the next course of action.
----
The group returns to Deni and Hangle. Langi reports that the group's managed to secure a route. Deni nods in affirmation, thanking them for their efforts. He asks which way the rest of the scouts shall be expected to go through.
*Monster Capital - Hearing this, the badger gives pause. He stands up and asks if they didn't hear his initial desire to keep that land safe. The chimp replies that he brought this up, but under the dragon's recommendation, they ultimately decided it'd be safer to open a way through the capital. Hearing this, Deni groaned and leaned back while clasping his forehead. He says that unfortunately, they can't undo this decision.
*Mountain Range - Hearing this, the badger claps his hands together appreciatively. He thanks Langi for following directions. With this, he's positive that their path forwards is as good as theirs. They'll probably keep on sticking to ground level, and as such will probably not worry about sticking to the mountain.

Either way, for now, he says that he'll send scouts to collect information on the new land. And once they collect, he'll prepare the next mission. With that, he dismisses the group. With that, they each step out, at which Osrus asks Langi what they'll do next. Langi answers that they have free time for now, so they'll have to stand back until they're required to act again. Hearing that, Osrus says that he thinks he'll prepare something a couple of days (or tomorrow if this is done before the deadline) from now.

;Iuli 11th

After all that's happened, Langi and Demiurge approach the farm field Osrus is stationed by. Once there, the group can see him sitting by the field and looking over the two. He waves them over, and says that things are starting to get a little tense, aren't they? Langi says that their village could be making history, and Demiurge can say "It has been pretty tense" or "I-I'm doing alright". Osrus says that the village's recently been chatting about some fancy herbs nearby that can cool down whoever chews on them. The wolf un-pockets a bunch of herbs before brandishing them towards the group. 

Langi says that this is irregular procedure for the village. Someone's supposed to test plants before bringing them in. Osrus, however, says that they seem to've been tested by a few already, and so far the headcount's looking good. Langi gives pause, though supposes a test by a scout could be just as official as one by Deni or Hangle. So, the remaining two sit down, and Osrus passes the herbs around. Demiurge is given the option to either "Eat" or "Don't eat". 

After a brief cutaway, the two/three of them can be seen lazily laying back, Osrus remarking that that the rumors were really right and really good. Langi lazily remarks that they could be in some serious trouble if Deni had a mission for them today. Osrus just lazily says "Yeah..." They lay for a bit, when Langi suddenly asks why Osrus is like this, so flippant about the rules. Osrus says that he doesn't know, but for all that's happened, a lot of people could be dead now if he was to follow orders. He then gives Langi a knowing look, the chimp not really remarking on it.

Langi says that this is not a good precedent, breaking the rules just on an individual judgement. Osrus asks if the herbs are working for Langi, because they're supposed to make the recipient less uptight. Besides, after the fact Deni made sure that what they were doing were in the rules after the fact. Demiurge can then ask "How often is Osrus like this?" or "How often is Langi like this?" To the former, Langi replies that Osrus had thought to apply for being a scout, but he didn't comply to the routines 100%, so instead he was assigned to a more restricted position. To the latter, Osrus replies that Langi used to be a care free monkey, prompting a correction from Langi, when Osrus continues to say that after he was kicked from the scout training, Langi seemed to act more and more like Deni.

Langi then says that Deni's been working off of information tried and true for hundreds of years. If they don't follow those rules, then there could be the threat of not being safe. Osrus then suddenly leans over to hold the chimp close, saying that he should really take his mind off of that. Osrus organized this so that the three of them can just avoid stressors and instead enjoy each other's company. He prompts Langi to just stay quiet, take in the environment, and point out how nice this is. At that, Langi agrees that it is kinda nice. He says that they should probably be safe to keep like this for a little longer.
===Penultimate===
;Iuli 12th

The next day, Demiurge's brought before Deni and Hangle, Deni saying that he'll be speaking with his scouts. In the meantime, he asks the dragon to follow all of the lemur's orders. She'll be gathering more intel. The dragon nods, and the honey badger leaves. Hangle tells the dragon that today, they'll need to understand some of the dragon's strengths. They've been documenting that of other creatures, but the dragon remains an unknown variable. Demiurge asks if it'll hurt, to which the lemur says that the path to knowledge has any amount of pain in any word.

Chubi seems weary, though she assures the feral that they'll be restored afterwards. This'll hurt, but future generations will understand this creature far better than the current generation does. Demiurge says that he has friends that'll notice if he disappears, to which Hangle says that she knows. She draws her whip, and tells Demiurge she doesn't want him to defend himself. All for future knowledge. With that, the usual battle scene appears, it seeming to be 1v1 between Demiurge and the lemur, except he can never use any of his battle options.

In the ensuing "battle", Hangle will lash her whip at the dragon. If he resists, she'll remark on how he seems naturally resistant. If he's weak, she'll remark on how that seemed to knock him off balance. If it does normal damage, she'll remark on how there's no remarkable reaction. She flicks the whip back, before striking two more time, just to verify. After those, the Demiurge says that it's really stinging. Hangle says that she appreciates him being vocal about his reactions, and asks him to keep on being vocal.

After that, she then casts Tryda, striking the dragon with lightning. Same as before if the dragon resists, is weak, or takes normal damage. She then casts Gwyn, striking the dragon with wind. Same as before. The dragon seems to be getting lower and lower on health. And when that happens, the lemur says that she can probably bring him down with one last blow. She understands that it hurts, so if it makes him feel better, she'll let him request how she takes down his stamina. The movelist of her's made available, but players can choose not to choose, at which she'll rush up to the dragon, before performing a critical hit with her whip.

Either way, the dragon's knocked down to his stomach, cuts over his body that are oozing rainbow-tinted ichor. Hangle keeps an eye on him as she walks over towards the canvases, at which she takes it and some charcoal, before approaching. She says that she's never seen a creature bleed like this before. She asks Demiurge about how he's feeling, to which he replies that he's hurting all over, and he can't lift his body. She makes a few notes while also sketching out the dragon's prone body. She writes and draws more and more. She asks the dragon how often he's found himself in a position like this, to which he replies that he can only remember one time, before he, he thinks, died.

Hangle grimaces at the dragon's strange wording, before soon wrapping up her notes and drawing. She sets them aside, before taking up a potion, tilting the dragon's head up, and feeding the contents to him. After clearing the body, the dragon's strength returns to him, and he stands up. The previous wounds seem to redress themselves, fixing his hide up, and his pain melts away. Chubi sprints up to the dragon's side, and rubs against his side comfortingly. The lemur says that he should go seek out Langi. Deni's probably giving out orders by now.

Seeing this as a good way to get out of the situation, the dragon leaves the cabin, him looking back at Hangle as if she might follow him. She doesn't.
----
After that, Demiurge makes it towards the edge of the village, where he can see various scouts positioned, including Langi. Once there, the chimp looks at him, and greets the dragon. He says that Deni's already set up the next mission, though finds himself cutting himself off when he notices the dragon seems shaken. He tries asking him if anything's happened, to which Demiurge seems like he wants to start talking about the lemur stuff, before saying that he's fine. Langi seems uncertain, though understands he can't quite get more information out of him.

He says that the scouts have gotten the lay of the land, have isolated the Monsters, as well as uncovered what they think's the leader. Texts from back in the day referred to it as the '''Lord of the Land'''. Hearing that, Demiurge perks up and seems more interested. He asks if it really is it, a giant, towering creature with teeth bigger than hands? Langi affirms that that was what was spotted, though ponders how he was able to relay the appearance. Demiurge says that he was there back in the day, with Gidere and the rest. Hearing that, Langi looks at him as if he's grown a second head. Langi says that that doesn't make sense, but to ascertain the creature's appearance from name alone...

He shakes his head and supposes that he can't focus on that anymore. For now, there's the mission. Deni wishes to secure any and all sour spots around T'rere before the Lord becomes a possible threat. Their group will need to work on isolating the various Monsters near the Lord's den, and finish them off. The scouts will work on securing the area whenever crowds of Monsters are gone, and others will work on drawing them away from the enemy. Deni says that at no point is anyone to challenge the Lord at the moment. Right now, they'll just deal with every other creature before approaching the Monster. That should leave it and only it the last remaining Monster.

For now, everyone's working on supplies. But tomorrow, their mission in T'rere starts. For now, Demiurge should feel free to talk around town, maybe gather new missions, and gather material for Demiurge's various allies. For now, he'll update Osrus about the situation. With that, the chimp steps away, and Demiurge is left to his own devices.
*Speaking to the various scouts has them talk about how this kind of mission is unprecedented, but if they can make things safer for their village, then they're happy to oblige. Many scouts seem to be similar to each other, and in fact similar to Langi

Demiurge can head to the chief cabin at any point to sleep and head onto the next day.

;Iuli 13th - Iuli 26th

With this, players are able to explore T'rere. And upon entering the hill-y trail, Langi reminds the group that their mission is to wipe out the packs of Monsters around the area. The scouts have mapped out where the lot of them should be, and as such, the group should be able to seek them out. Hearing that, Osrus says that he's not sure how confident he is about this. Langi remarks that he seems uncharacteristically cautious for a man that faced down one such creature, to which Osrus says that if Langi didn't see his fear, then that was his mistake. Langi supposes that that may be true, and says that Deni chose the four of them to battle the Monsters for a reason. So, it's time to set out. 

There are three problem areas containing groups of enemies, with small groups of large enemies between said Monster locations. There's the following: 
*'''Horde of Raptors''' at the starting incline towards the final hill. Seeing them, Demiurge remarks that these things are really dangerous, especially in groups. Hearing that, Langi says that any creature can be dangerous if it's joined by enough side arms. Though that many Monsters, that's a bad sign. Osrus asks if they're certain they can keep this many enemies in one place, to which Langi says that other scouts are around to keep them in place. Regardless, they have to do anything they can to get rid of this problem.
*'''Stegosaurus''' who's joined by a bunch of goats, them being fairly close to the final hill. Upon approaching and seeing the smaller creatures around it, Osrus wonders what they're doing so close to it. Langi strains his eyes and takes notes of the Monster's teeth: herbivorous. That thing doesn't eat other ferals, and considering its general size, he wouldn't be surprised if there's some sort of protective relationship going on here. At that, Osrus ponders how it brings them anywhere close to the rest of the Monsters, at which Langi says that they needn't worry much else.
*'''Archaeopteryx''' who's joined by some big bulls, this creature perched on a somewhat far away hill. Seeing it, Osrus remarks that it's a sad day that the Monsters get wings. Langi looks over it, before glancing towards Demiurge. The dragon can't help but feel uncomfortable, and steps back. Demiurge says that he saw one of these way back in the day, and when he did, they were pretty annoying. Still, they weren't joined by other creatures before. Osrus says that they'll have to be careful then, and set out. It seems like a fight similar to the last with the Archaeopteryx, except when their health gets low, the Monster will utilize a skill on the bulls to drain them of their health.

Upon clearing each, scouts can be seen gathering at the Monster-less areas: a bunch are setting up nasty-looking needles at the base of the final hill, a bunch are setting up prime sniping-position at the Archaeopteryx's hill, and a bunch are preparing what look like smoke bombs at the Stegosaurus' position. 

Seeing them all set up, a fox scout rushes to the party, looking out of breath. Langi asks what's wrong, to which the fox replies that the plans' changing. Another Monster appeared unexpectedly! They're still setting up, and if the Monster gets too rambunctious, then the set up for the Lord of the Land will be all for naught! Hearing that, Osrus says that they can't let all of their hard work go to waste. Demiurge asks what they saw, to which the fox replies that the Monster bore claws as long as blades, and upon hearing that, Langi seems to perk up. He ponders if that creature the newcomer saved him from has really come back...

Either way, the group's now prompted to head up the final hill a little bit. Part way up, indeed, the Therizinosaurus is there, it flanked by a few Dilophosauruses. Seeing it, the group prepares their weaponry, understanding that this'd be a tough fight. Langi says that they should be quick about this, for fear of it stirring up the Lord. Demiurge supposes that if they position themselves properly, they'd be able to keep it in place. Osrus then takes a deep breath, and says they can do this... they can do this... they can do this...

With that, the group step forwards, stirring the clawed Monster to offense. It hisses and rears back, Langi pondering if it recognizes them. Osrus says that it's just a dumb creature, and that they're just hear to get rid of it. With that, they each take their gear up, and the Monster charges. With that, the battle with the '''Therizinosaurus''' starts. It seems somewhat similar to before, it slashing while the smaller Monsters use debuffs. It seems normal, until the clawed Monster is down to half health. It pants and pants, before seeming to survey the area around it, remarking a few scattered bones, including a femur. It seems to fixate on it, before reaching to it, and struggling to wrap its fingers around it.

It hoists the bone up, at which it takes a few practice swings at the ground beneath. Then, it swings to its sides, smashing the Dilophosauruses across the heads and killing them seemingly instantly. Seeing how effective it is, the creature howls again, taking the weapon up and battling the party, shocking them as it seems now able to use tools like they can. With that, the battle with the Monster continues. Now it's alone, but it wields more attack power, and also has the ability to deal slashing and smashing damage. If players are smart, they should be able to circumvent the beast's high attack power, and should finally be able to overwhelm it.

The Therizinosaurus hobbles back, it forced to release its grip on the bone. It hobbles more and more, panting and panting, while the other animals look on, ready to strike if it's not quite down yet. However, it looks as if it's too overwhelmed. It stumbles on its feet, before gravity pulls it back, making it fall right on its back, it totally limp. Seeing it like that, each party member sighed, and put their weaponry away. Langi says that that should be the last of the Monster issues they cleared up over here. As he says that, though, Demiurge and Osrus give pause. 

Langi ponders what they're up to, to which Demiurge can say "It was getting smart" or "It was looking more mortal". Osrus adds onto that and says that that Monster was doing things a lot of ferals weren't doing. Langi gives pause, though says that they've already come this far. There's not much either of them can do now, so there's no use thinking on what they just saw. Langi says that right now, all they can do is leave the rest to the scouts, they can't get too close to the Lord of the Land. Osrus supposes that that's true, so the group now has the chance to leave T'rere.
----
With that, the party's seen back at Deni's cabin. Demiurge tells the wolverine that they've done it, that they've cleared out the Monsters alongside the scouts, all without rousing the Lord of the Land. Hearing that, Deni gives a soft clap, saying that they've done good work. For now, all any of them can do is wait for the scouts to finish preparations. In the meantime, he expects the party to keep their preparations up to snuff, for he expects that they'll be needed in finishing off the Lord. The group nods, though the party's a little more reluctant to reciprocate. 

The party leaves, Chubi goes over to Hangle's side, and Demiurge gives pause. Seeing him like that, Deni asks the dragon if something's bothering him. Demiurge can either say "It's nothing" or "That Monster back there..." To the former, Deni still seems weary. To the latter, Deni seems to listen in, before giving a sigh. Either way, he ends up saying that those creatures have only ever threatened the good people. Everyone had the chance to grow into something better than their past, and they're still only beasts that eat others, regardless of intelligence. 

He says that the final battle is near. He'll still expect Demiurge to come by and report to Hangle, though still expects everyone to get ready for the felling of the Lord. Hearing that, the dragon nods, and heads out to sleep.
===Finale===
;Iuli 27th

Demiurge wakes up yet again, and soon notices Chubi near his bed, them seeming to jump on the dragon in an attempt to wake him up. The dragon soon rouses awake, and asks the pangolin what's up. The pangolin begins tugging on his foot, the dragon standing. He follows the feral, before soon arriving at the front room, where Hangle is currently tending to one of Deni's weaponry, the wolverine elsewhere right now. Chubi hangs near the door, and the lemur says that she'll be expecting another session real quick, her setting the claws down while also grabbing charcoal and some paper. 

Neutral, dynamic, pained... She's seen that so far, so maybe something more joyful this time. Hearing that, the dragon seems to breathe a sigh of relief, saying that he can do happy. Hangle prompts the dragon to simply sit down, and think back on some happier memories. Hearing that, Demiurge sits down and leans back, his head raised as he thinks back. Hangle, meanwhile, quickly goes about sketching Demiurge's pose. As she does, she asks him what he's thinking about.

Demiurge says that it's kind of weird. Part of him feels like it hasn't been that long, but he's really been away from his home for a few hundred years. He was thinking back to the Draconic Gardens. There Dragons tended to be hatched, though they tend to be hatched separate from their parents. Said parents are usually elsewhere guiding another populace, so Dragons like himself are under the care of caretaker Dragons. The one he was with was known as '''Sophia''', and she's been really helpful... His expression falters a little as he remarks that he hasn't interacted with her much since he came to this planet.

Hangle, meanwhile, still has a brow raised, though continues to draw and write. Eventually, she finishes, before setting the paper aside. Hangle remarks that he's been sticking by this story for a while now, to which Demiurge replies that it's all true. The lemur seems to bite her tongue, before saying that right now, it's not worth it debating on this. She says that she'll have to continue her work here, and leaves Demiurge to his own devices. The Dragon then goes to leave, Chubi rushing to his side. Hangle says that the pangolin's been getting more friendly with him than her, and prompts Demiurge to treat him well.
----
With that, Demiurge heads out, soon meeting up with Osrus at his garden. He sees the Dragon, and remarks that he's rarely seen Chubi out of the cabin except on a mission. Demiurge says that the feral appears to've gotten real friendly with the group right now, and then asks the wolf where Deni is. He says that the wolverine's actually left the village. Langi says that he's out overseeing the other scouts' work.

Demiurg then supposes that it'll just be a bit of busy work for now? Osrus nods in affirmation, saying that in the meantime, they should just keep to the normal stuff. For now, though, if they're going to be doing stuff later, then they should take tonight to relax a little. Hearing that, the group would sit down, Chubi now able to waner amongst them. Time cuts, and Langi arrives at the garden. He looks ready to bark at them for their nonchalance, but shrugs, before remarking that he probably can't talk them out of this. 

He sits back, and now the four of them are all together. As they do, Osrus remarks that, it's funny, they've been together this long, and they don't really know much about Demiurge. Hearing that, the Dragon supposes that that's right, they haven't really conversed much. So, a brief cutaway occurs, in which the Dragon explains himself. Hearing that, the two seemed stunned. Osrus remarks that that's some story, and Langi says that Demiurge should be a little more serious. They deserve to know about him, don't they? Demiurge insists that he's telling the truth, though Osrus says that they'll have to accept that Demiurge doesn't feel comfortable talking about that. The Dragon's been wholly helpful ever since they joined, anyways. Demiurge seems a little put off, but sighs and lays back.

Osrus says that they should really come up with something to do whenever there's nothing to do. Langi tries to say that there's always something to do, though Demiurge is quick to agree with the wolf. Langi realizes he's outvoted, and shrugs. Perhaps they canc ome up with something after the Lord is beaten.

;Iuli 28th - Augua 1st

With this, the player has time to just do stuff. This involves further sidequests, doing some things at the village, even grinding up to make sure players are prepared for the oncoming fight. It's all free time for now, but when the time comes, it's time to act.

;Augua 2nd

On this day, Demiurge wakes up to Hangle nudging him awake. The dragon rouses up and looks up at her curiously, to which she replies that the scouts reported movement on T'rere. She says that the dragon should round up his allies in preparation for movement. The dragon seems to be still adjusting to the news, before realizing what's being asked of him. He then gets up, before Chubi rushes to his side, and he heads out.

They soon meet up at the garden, where Langi and Osrus are standing. Demiurge tells them what Hangle told him, to which Langi says that it sounds like their endgame approaches. Deni and Hangle have been expecting the four of them to be able to withstand that Monster. Osrus remarks that the scouts say that that'll be the last one, which means that now the world'll probably be a safer place, though the wolf seems slightly uncomfortable. There's a noticeable pause, though Demiurge can say "We'll win this" or "We'll finish them". Langi says that Demiurge's right, that their fight will finish today, and that they'll be able to go back to more relaxing times!

Either way, scouts come and tell the group that it's time. The Monster's beginning to rouse, and it's time to head out.
----
Rain's starting to come down on the general area.

The party's quickly ushered into T'rere, approaching the hill the last Monster was positioned at. Langi takes a few deep breaths, before saying that they're going to do this... they're going to do this... He seems less like he's telling the party this and more like he's telling himself this. Demiurge, meanwhile, thinks back to his last fight with the Lord of the Land, where he was painfully killed, and his friends... He continues on forwards, and the group follows, weary. They soon reach the lip, where they can see what looks like the start of a nest being built, while a malicious creature looms nearby, looking down at the nest with a slight sense of resentment. 

The Monster looks identical to the creature Demiurge fought long ago. This must be the '''Lord of the Land''', and it appears to be all alone. It soon spies the party, before snarling. It raises its head up while glaring down at the group, it starting to bear its sword-like teeth. Each party member draws their respective weapons while Chubi grits his own teeth and gets into a threatening stance. The Monster stamps towards them, before bellowing out a mighty roar, its voice seeming to shake those around it! And with this, Demiurge declares that they're going to do this!

The Lord of the Land in this fight is fairly similar to the way it was last time, though players should note that the creature seems more drawn towards physical attacks and defenses, though maybe that's more the party being more up to the case and thus able to not realize its magic being less capable before. Point is, the group should be safer should they rely on anti-physical techniques. However, as it'd turn out, the fight won't be so simple as beating it here and now. After bringing its health down to two thirds, it rears back, before rushing forwards, forcing the party to part.

It races past, though its movement is slowed down as it pierces its feet on the needles at the base of the hill. Seeing that, Langi says that it's getting away, and that they have to chase it! As it runs, the group can see the many ferals in the field running to the borders of T'rere in fear of the Monster. They race after the Lord, before soon finding it having slowed down, it forced to catch its breath and recover from its foot wounds at the location the Stegosaurus was at. And once there, the group continues battle with it, when several scouts rain down smoke bombs, which makes the party themselves harder to hit for a few turns, which makes the starting few rounds significantly easier. After bringing it down to a third of its HP, it charges forwards again.

The party continues racing after it, soon nearing the passageway to the Monster Capital. Here, it seems enraged, and will start the fight buffing its physical power. During this portion, at the end of each round, the Monster will be assailed by Blowgun fire from other scouts, who're likely to inflict Poison/Blind/Paralysis on it. It struggles to keep up, which is all the better for the party. Eventually, through smart play, players should be able to drain the last of its health. And with that, the next cutscene proceeds.

It rears back, before lunging at Osrus, trying to chomp on him as he dodges back. As it tries to strike, Chubi races in to ram his body into its jaw, knocking it off course. This is followed up by a swift scythe slash from the wolf, and Blowgun strike from the chimp. As it's struck by all of that, Demiurge runs in to shoulder ram its head, though it rears back before bringing up a foot to try and stamp it down on him. The dragon's then forced to bring his hands up to catch it, him able to hoist it despite the size difference. Osrus chops at its ankle, causing it to rear back and put some pressure off of the dragon. Though, in a roar of annoyance, it brings its foot up, before swiping it at the pair's back, Osrus able to dodge away while Demiurge's hit back and tossed behind the Monster.

The remaining party keeps on attacking to keep its attention, while Demiurge recovers. He quickly shares a glance with Osrus, his eyes wandering to the latter's weapon. Osrus nods in affirmation, before he rears back. Then, he swings his scythe forwards hard enough to send the scythe flying over the Monster's head, it watching as it soars overhead, before rearing down and snarling at the wolf. Demiurge, meanwhile, leaps up, managing to catch the scythe midair before slamming down above the Monster's tail, while slamming the blade of the scythe into their hindquarters. The Monster's eyes widen in surprise, before Demiureg dashes forwards while holding the scythe, soon arriving behind the Monster's head, and chopping painfully across its neck! With that blow, its entire body tenses up, and it seems nice and weak.

It falls to its knees, before the rest of its body slams down on the ground, it giving off a large shockwave and loud sound. The party's left panting, overwhelmed from everything they've gone through. There's a long pause amongst the group, though they each share a knowing nod. Osrus seems to try and raise his hand in a fist pump, only to fall onto his back. Langi finally says that they did it...
----
With that, the group returns back to the village, where there appears to be celebration. The full details might change depending on the various sidequests you performed.
*If you did all of Brenkt's missions, you'll see her with a bunch of those herbs she's been after, though she's notably keeping them in fairly small portions. Other villagers are seen taking a few themselves.
*If you worked on the scouts' various gear issues, Denny can be seen offering one to Langi. Denny remarks that with these, they probably won't have to worry about being accosted by ferals ever again!
(work on later)

It's a night of entertainment, and the party feels awfully exhausted. Osrus says that they've done really good, and that he could probably sleep forever. Langi says that they should all be really proud today. And he says that tomorrow, all of that field work should feel nice and simple. Osrus slumps in distress. Demiurge, meanwhile, can reply "I'm feeling tired myself" or " should head out", or players can choose to have him not say anything if they wish to continue interacting with the celebration. Either way, Demiurge decides to wrap up the night.

Osrus jokes that the Dragon'll have to do something really special to keep up steam after that move back there. Langi tells the Dragon to not mind his friend, and that Deni'll probably allow them a few days to relax. Demiurge notices that the two of them seem far more lax around each other, even seeming to be closer to each other. Either way, he tells the two of them he'll see them tomorrow, and walks off, Chubi at his side, ready to sleep.

;Augua 3rd

This day, Demiurge wakes up, Chubi now trying to hop him awake. The Dragon climbs out and says that he's still sleeping off the battle from last night. The pangolin rushes out of the bedroom, seeming intent on having the Dragon follow him. Demiurge follows curiously, out into the front room, Chubi clawing at the front door. Demiurge seems curious at the creature's excitement, before realizing that he actually seems frantic, glancing to the door and towards Demiurge. The Dragon stops to ask him what's wrong. 

However, his curiosity is halted as he hears Deni and Hangle step into the room, Deni greeting the Dragon. Demiurge greets them back, and Hangle starts to come around behind him, nearing the door that Chubi's clawing at. Demiurge remarks that Deni hasn't involved himself in any of Hangle's researches, though the wolverine says that he was apparently needed for today. He looks towards the spear that Gidere once held, him remarking that for a while, the Dragon's been a rogue element ever since he arrived, from his mysterious origin to the stories he keeps on spinning. Gidere wanted the modern world to understand the many animals around them, and right now, they struggle to understand the Dragon.

Demiurge asks what the long speech is for, not noticing Chubi keeping on banging against the door while Hangle gets closer. Deni says that for now, there doesn't appear to be any reason for Demiurge to lie, but it's still unbelievable. Maybe it isn't a mystery for the two of them to understand, or the rest of village for that matter. But there's one thing they can properly test to see if all of Demiurge's ramblings are true. However, Chubi suddenly rams at the lemur beside him, only for her to parry the blow, before kicking him hard enough to crack the wall he slams into! Demiurge glances back in alarm, before hearing Deni flashing his gilded claws. 

Suddenly, what looks like another battle starts, except it portrays Demiurge, on his own, being ambushed by Deni and Hangle. During this fight, Demiurge finds himself unable to damage either of them, while they reply with slashes of their claw and lashes of their whip respectively, boring down on the Dragon and draining his health. Demiurge asks what they're doing, to which Hangle says that the Dragon had "died" before, right? Then this should be alright, the Dragon should just return 500 years later. They keep on striking, and the Dragon's brought down to his knees, struggling to stand. Through pants, he pleads them to stop, that he was going to see his friends. Deni, meanwhile, says that with the Monsters gone, they'll be alright. He, meanwhile, has to show the future info the current era can't understand. 

By now, Deni says that it's time to finish this. Hangle nods in affirmation, and tells the Dragon to keep this moment in mind. If they do return from sleep, then the future should know about what a felled Dragon experiences while they rest. Then, the two seem to perform an All Out Attack on Demiurge, wailing on him and finishing him off. With the last of his health gone, Demiurge is bloodied all over, him clasping at whatever lashes he has, though there's too many for him to cover himself. Deni, meanwhile, approaches while brandishing the claws. He promises that the body shall be preserved well. And then, he jams those claws into his chest, and Demiurge's vision goes dark.
----
With that, Demiurge's journey in this era comes to an end. The era he goes to next changes depending on actions taen here.
*If players chose to clear the Monster Capital during Medium, he'll go onto the '''[[#Conservation Era|Conservation Era]]'''
*If players chose to clear the Mountain Range during Medium, he'll go onto the '''[[#Research Era|Research Era]]'''
==Conservation Era==
===Early===
The Dragon's left resting. He's unaware of what's happening to him, or even if anyone knows what's happening to him. He tries to fight the pull of slumber, but his body isn't responding to any of his willing. He rests and rests, before eventually feeling the space around him tightening. It felt like the walls were closing in on him, the walls he wasn't even aware were there. He tried to bellow out for someone to come and find him. However, there's a loud snap, and the binding on him shattered!

He snapped awake at that moment, jolted out of his slumber. He's blinking out any lingering slumber to get a read on his current situation. He finds that he's currently sitting in what appears to be the shattered remnants of some sort of coffin. Well-trimmed wood forms a large prism that looked like it'd contain his younger self, though Demiurge himself is now bigger than that, standing two feet taller than before and with a wider shoulder span and gate, his horns having grown a few inches while his tail and wings are bigger and thicker.

Players are prompted to pick one of the classes available to them, before the scene continues. Demiurge can hear what sounds like a door opening up. He notices more of the room, now spying that he looks to be in some sort of cavern-like chamber, though the rear wall has cloth on it bearing the drawing of a draconic head, which he assumes to be of his younger form, based on the horns. He then turns towards where he heard the door, spying a route leading from into the chamber to what he assumed to be outside, though a wooden door is set up in place. Said door's opened up, allowing a lemur guy with a whip and a leather vest and pants to enter.

Demiurge's eyes widened as he spied the stranger, who closed the door behind him, before being startled by the appearance of the Dragon. He takes a few steps closer, Demiurge seeming to dig into his head to try and get a read on who this could be. He rears back, before suddenly lunging at the lemur, tackling him down while wrapping his claws around his neck. The lemur gasps out in alarm and smacks at his wrists, saying he's not here to hurt, he's not here to hurt! Hearing the more masculine tone of voice seemed to register to Demiurge that this lemur was not the same as the one that helped kill him.

He releases his grip, before panting and sitting back. The lemur gasps in as much air as he can while rubbing at his throat. He begins to climb up to his feet, saying that he was just checking the tomb when he heard a noise. He supposes that that must be the guy before him right now... he is a dragon, right? Demiurge takes a closer look at the lemur, getting a better read on his overall appearance, including the clothing that appears more advanced than the tunics he tended to see back in the day. Demiurge replies that he is, in fact, the Dragon. He gives his name, which seems to get the lemur's attention moreso. 

He replies that if this is Demiurge... then this'll surely be something to put in the history books. Either way, the lemur decides to introduce himself to the Dragon, saying that he's '''Derrik''', one of the beast masters of T'rere. Demiurge takes slight pause at the name he said. Demiurge asks how long he's been in that chamber, to which Derrik says that the tomb's existed as early as Deni, so at least 500 years? Demiurge supposes he should've figured, before asking what the lemur's going to do with him? Derrik says that he supposes that he should show him to the chief pronto. This is some very interesting news. He asks the Dragon to stay by his side, he'll escort the Dragon. Demiurge isn't quite sure about this, but supposes he doesn't have much other choice...
----
Demiurge woke up in a cavern on the mountain range near T'rere. Derrik's currently leading him down the path in the direction of the location of the last battle with the Monsters. However, on their way down, Demiurge raises his brow and sniffs at the air. He remarks that he smells something weird nearby. Derrik's confused, though cautiously reaches towards his whip as he asks the Dragon where it's coming from. Demiurge points in a direction, the edge of a nearby cliff. The lemur looks at the source, before widening his eyes.

He lashes at the ground near the edge, letting out a loud cracking noise that prompts a mountain lion hidden off the trail to leap in surprise, them stumbling down. Seeing that, Derrik says that the two of them have to go after it. Derrik's not allowed to kill off the ferals right now, so they should make sure it's alive. Demiurge asks why, that thing was probably gonna kill them. However, Derrik's already going off trail, and Demiurge follows after him. They careful travers the cliff-face, before arriving at a ledge the mountain lion's downed on, now bloodied and panting. 

Derrik draws a restorative potion from his pouch and gets close to it, Derrik requesting Demiurge keeps close in case this thing feels ungrateful. Derrik gets close, Demiurge looking on uncertain. Then, he pours the drink onto the feline, its wounds suturing close. Then, it stands up, before swiping at the lemur, who's forced to dodge back! Like that, the two are forced to battle, and Derrik reminds Demiurge they mustn't kill this creature. Here, players learn a bit about what Derrik does, including some rather damaging elementals, a few damaging slashes, and a special skill that can let him charm ferals. Thankfully, the two of them are able to scare off the feline, who runs off. Derrik says that they got sidetracked, and now, they should get back to going to T'rere.
----
The duo soon makes it off of the mountain range and down towards the hill-y area Demiurge remembered. However, he wasn't expecting to see a settlement here. There's plenty of huts around the general area, a fairly large graveyard, as well as worn trails from where various people have walked. T'rere seems less like wildlands, and more like its own small city. Derrik leads the Dragon through, and they end up passing various other animal people of similar dress to the lemur. All sorts of citizens look at the Dragon in confusion, surprised at the existence of such a creature.

Derrik says that tale of the Dragon's been kept quiet to those outside of the chief's personal circle, but he promises that many will learn about "the immortal creature" once he confirms his existence to the chief. The Dragon remarks that he's not sure how he feels about being a secret, though the lemur says that this's been the way things were for a while. Ever since the Monsters were beaten, Deni's village liked to linger in the general vicinity of the Mountain Range so as to keep a close eye on the Dragon. Demiurge remarks that they've always been moving, were they really alright with just staying in one place? Derrik says that the chief should be able to bring him up to speed. Either way, it seems like the Dragon can only talk to the chief in order to proceed.

Either way, they head into a hut that has flags draw over either side of its doorway, said flags bearing the image of what seems to be the face of a wolverine, bearing their claws in front of them. Derrik leads the Dragon ahead of him, Demiurge hunching under the door and struggling to enter the building. Derrik enters behind him, and there, the Dragon notices the inside features well-crafted wood to create a sort of skeleton to the hut, this current section of the skeleton featuring a room with a large desk in it and a big doorway behind it, currently a buff tiger guy behind the desk with his arms crossed. 

Derrik quickly explains to the tiger that the new creature is a guest of his, and he needs to meet with the chief. The tiger acknowledges with a nod, and steps aside to let the two of them through. The two progress forwards, and go through a hallway with various doors leading into other rooms. And at the very end of the hall is a more lavish room with more of those flags in it, and a fairly big chair in it that boasts a muscular panther lady with a scimitar at her hip, and numerous bones pinned to her like jewelry. Derrik steps out in front of Demiurge and takes a knee, acknowledging the lady as '''Chief Miza'''. 

The panther nods to accept the decree, before turning towards the Dragon. She says that the Dragon's documentation has been passed from chief to chief, though they always described him as small. The Dragon says that he kind of grew, and Derrik assures that this is the same guy, he guarded the tomb and the Dragon appeared from within, introducing himself with the name of the lying creature. Miza strokes her chin and leans back in the chair, her saying that everything else matches, which means that the tales the Dragon spun once upon a time were true.

Demiurge says that he wants to know what's happened during his sleep, to which the calm and collected feline says that she should've expected as much of a reaction. She then stands up, before stepping towards a corner of the room, this one hosting several shelves with various documents on it. She searches through the lot of them, before pulling forth a few. She approaches the Dragon as she scans over them, saying that when the Dragon was slain, Deni had his beast tamer ally transfer him to the mountain range, where Demiurge was contained and left to linger in the hopefully unapproachable landscape. 

Deni grew weary about the Dragon getting discovered, so he transferred the people to T'rere for easier access. During this time, they'd hunted to their hearts content, as easily as they had through the Monster Capital. However, local feral life grew less and less plentiful, and as that happened, scouts would have to scavenge farther and farther while the chief transferred powers to their next born. This process would repeat, and eventually, the chiefs would realize that certain scouts weren't coming back. Some were sent to investigate, only to be met with resistance, them branded as "trespassers". It turned out that as resources grew more limited, members of the chief's village splintered off to create settlements of their own, which means that they too would be hunting down ferals, which means less resources for themselves. 

Miza looks up from the paper, and tells Demiurge that the local wildlife isn't doing well, and the villages nearby aren't making things easier. Hearing that, Demiurge asks her what she wishes of them, to which she replies that if T'rere is to survive, then they need food. And if they're going to get food, then they'll need to stave off opposing settlements. Demiurge's eyes widen and asks if she intends for them to harm other people, to which she replies that people like them have harmed plenty of poor people, and now people are starving because of it. For now, she's been having scouts try and sneak in whatever scraps of meat before other settlements could take them, but with this Dragon, they might actually have a chance of overcoming this hardship.

Miza looks at Demiurge and Derrik, and says that the two of them are tasked with heading northwest to pacify the settlement of '''Gurah'''. Derrik gives a bow and assures that they shall be dealt with, and Demiurge himself is fairly uncertain. Though, he ultimately follows Derrik's lead and bows. Miza says that she'll be at a distance to see the might of the Dragon with the naked eye. She requests that Demiurge not disappoint. 
----
After that, Demiurge and Derrik are out of the chief's hut, the night starting to come down. Demiurge asks if the two of them will be safe on this mission, to which the lemur replies that whether it's safe or not, it's what the chief wishes. They're pretty tough people, though; they should be safe. For now, though, they'll have the night to make a few preparations for tomorrow. This is where players are able to buy more items (better healing, mp restoring, and battle items), better equipment, and accessories. Either way, the duo will simply have to go to Derrik's personal lodging, it next door to the chief hut and being a little smaller, boasting three rooms.

Derrik settles down in his own bed, and the Dragon's forced to lay down on one of the floors on account of his size difference. He grumbles and settles about, before resting. And as he does, a scene outside shows the Pale Dragon on the mountain range and looking out over T'rere. She remarks to herself that the poor thing seems to struggle with the new setting. She gives pause, before shaking her head and saying that for now, he'll have to pull himself through this. She can't quite influence the path he leads mortal kind, but says to the Dragon, regardless of if he can hear her or not, to be careful. The hard stuff's only just begun.

;Augua 4th

At this point, the duo awake, and Derrik is already pushing the Dragon towards the northwest border of T'rere. Derrik tells the Dragon that they'll have to be careful, and says that if any ferals gets involved, then they shouldn't be afraid of utilizing his taming ability to their advantage. Demiurge understands, though ponders if they should stop for any allies. Derrik says that they'll determine that based on this trip out. And then, Demiurge realizes that if they will encounter ferals, then shouldn't they collect them and bring them back to the settlement? Derrik says that they weren't given explicit permission, so they'll have to keep them alive, though at the very least they can scare them away from the direction of other villages and instead send them towards T'rere. 

With that said, the two step out, and head on the passageway to the northwest, leading them to the '''Glimmering Forest''', the area thick with trees and brandishing autumn-colored leaves. The duo progresses through, finding a distinct lack of trail, though Derrik says that they just need to press on in the appropriate direction. He thinks that if they just keep going in the appropriate direction, then they should come upon something. And so, the group presses on, sure enough encountering various ferals of a decent level.

They continue on, until a cutscene plays. They two keep on moving, while a different camera angle shows someone far off with a bow. And then, they fire, plunging an arrow into the ground right in front of Demiurge's feet, prompting him to stop. He looks up and sees the bowman, who hops down from a tree. Said bowman is a lithe squirrel guy in a green outfit, who has a pair of wolves accompanying him as he approaches the two. The squirrel tells the two that they're trespassing, and orders them to leave the area. Derrik says that this is one of those Gurah men, and says that this is a good way of seeing how well trained they are. Hearing that, the squirrel asks if they seriously intend on resisting. Derrik prompts the Dragon, saying that they can step away, but that they'll have to deal with this guy sometime or later.

After confirming that they wish to challenge, the bowman says that they made a big mistake. And so, the group's made to fight the '''Gurah Bowman'''. It's a relatively tough fight, the Bowman utilizing various status effects to make it harder to hit him while he plugs away at their health. Thankfully, the presence of the ferals gives the party a slight advantage as Derrik's able to essentially fool the wolves into attacking each other and the Bowman. Either way, the group's eventually able to take care of that guy, though both parties are quite winded. The Bowman's racing away with a limp, while Derrik's forced to sit back and take a breath. He remarks that he's not doing too well.

Derrik says that they're pretty lucky that guy had ferals with him. That was just one of the guys they'll have to deal with. He remarks that they aren't prepared to deal with Gurah right now unfortunately, so they should pull back.
----
The duo's back in T'rere, the two panting. The Dragon asks what they're gonna do about those guys, to which Derrik replies that they simply need more man power. Derrik can hurt a lot, but he tends to be useless without ferals nearby, and he can't be certain if those guys will have more ferals or not. So, they should go for someone good at surviving a fight. Derrik says that he's all tired, so they should probably rest up and leave the search for one tomorrow.

;Augua 5th

The next day comes, Demiurge finding the hut he's resting in empty. However, before he can contemplate further on this, the door opens, revealing Derrik entering. He says that he checked with Miza about the situation, and she said that she's currently still observing, and that she's got plenty of scouts out and searching for grub. However, she is having her tiger minion, '''Grant''', convey the message to various members of the T'rere. She suspects that they should only use one other citizen on this mission, for many are in a bad state. 

Demiurge supposes that that's the best they can do. So, he supposes they should set up shop and get a good look at each person. Derrik nods in affirmation, saying that they'll have to be attentive. So, they set out and into the chief's hut, positioned near the desk the tiger originally stood at. Grant approaches and says that they got a volunteer. Demiurge asks Grant why they can't join, to which Grant says that he has to make sure the chief stays safe. Then, Derrik speaks up and asks if Grant said '''a''' volunteer.

And then, in comes the lady running the equipment store. She's a rhino lady with a pickaxe at her side, and she tends to collect material herself to prepare the gear she sells. Demiurge asks if she'll be ok leaving her shop, to which she replies that she has a loyal friend keeping look at it. Besides, she can't gather material if she bottoms out the mineral veins nearby, and she can't investigate other veins unless they clear out those territorial other villagers. She introduces herself as '''Manya''', and says that she'd love to fight with them.

Demiurge and Derrik glance to each other, before turning to Manya. Grant supposes that by default, she's a shoe-in, though Derrik supposes they'd better see how she performs. Manya then asks if they seriously doubt her, to which she flexes and says that these arms have torn through several feet of stone to get at her prize and come out with barely a scratch. Besides, it couldn't hurt to get to know the stranger in town a little more than as a customer. Demiurge apologizes for not conversing more. Manya says that that's no problem, and says that if they're so weary about her, then they can head out to Gurah today. Demiurge seems in support, as does Grant, and in the end, Derrik recognizes that he's outvoted. So, out they go.
----
The trio's out and in the field, heading to the Glimmering Forest and going through similar foes to before, Manya able to utilize her prowess to slow down enemies, and to bodily block blows directed at party members. Sure enough, the rhino's serving as one heck of an ally. It eventually culminates in them arriving at the same stopping place as before, the Bowman from before back in place and patched up. 

He sees the oncoming foes, and goes to fire the next arrow. Demiurge remarks that this was where they encountered that Gurrah villager before, when Derrik looks up, and spies that foe from before. An arrow sails towards the lemur, when Manya rushes in and blocks the strike. With that, the Gurah Bowman comes down from the tree, his fellow ferals on either side of him. He again tells the group to get away, to which Derrik says that with Manya, they should wipe the floor with this guy. Hearing that, the Bowman asks if they're serious, before whipping his bow up and challenging them. 

The fight's fairly similar to before, though Manya is able to take attacks in place of others, a very necessary skill considering her resistance to stabbing attacks, this resistance greatly reducing the Bowman's attacks. Sure enough, they're able to overwhelm the Bowman, who grunts and is forced back, though struggles to stand. His fellow ferals limp near him, and he limps. He says that he'll make sure the village is prepared for when the three of them arrive, before racing off! With that, the trio give pause, before Derrik remarks that Manya did amazing there.

Manya thanks him for the compliment, before saying that if they continue on, then they'll probably face more resistance. Still, with their combined forces, they should probably withstand whatever these guys have to throw at them. Derrik nods along, and says that they've spent a fair bit of time not acting. They'd better wrap this up fast.

;Augua 5th - Augua 15th

With this, the group must traverse more of the Shimmering Forest in search of the village. The players will encounter ferals a little less frequently, though will find them accompanying scouts from Gurah. The group powers through them more and more, until eventually, huts can be seen, the arrangement somewhat similar to that of T'rere. Sure enough, this'd be the settlement of '''Gurah'''.

Demiurge remarks that this may be tricky. However, Derrik says that now they should be past the hard part. If Gurah is anything like T'rere, it'll keep its scouts a fair distance from the village while keeping some tough guards around the chief. He suspects that they should be able to get through quite a bit of the village before arriving at the chief's hut, where they intend to come to some sort of agreement that'll... benefit both parties. Manya then remarks that they don't got time to waste, and presses on.

Now, the party presses through the village, where they'll occasionally encounter spear-wielding guards, before eventually arriving at a hut built similarly to the chief's hut back in T'rere. There are a few more guards here, though players should be able to press through them and into the chief's hut. They press on in, soon arriving at the end of a hall, lined up against a mantis man, him being skinny and having a pair of sickles at his hips. He sees the three in his hut, and gives an annoyed sigh. Demiurge remarks to Derrik that this guy looks like a chief, to which he replies that this is '''Chief Gur III'''. 

Gur III says that he's heard his men talk about T'rere folks breaching their lands. He wishes to know what they're doing here, to which Derrik replies that their settlement has been interfering with T'rere's supply lines. If their people are to live, then Gurah needs to either ease their hunts and territory laws, or it needs to absorb back into T'rere. Gur III says that their village too has been in a dire spot. He asks if the people on T'rere really thinks that they and they alone are suffering food shortages? Gurah's been struggling to keep up with the lesser resources, though Derrik brings up that they have far more ferals among their ranks than T'rere does. Manya also brings up that she saw some pretty hardy material among the guards, much better stuff than what T'rere has among them.

Gur III, however, says that it is then survival of the fittest. They were able to branch beyond T'rere, against the wishes of Deni, and are now able to survive. Then, Demiurge asks if that's really how they wish to live, splitting off from former friends and leaving them to die. Gur III says that it wasn't he who'd separated, but rather his forefathers. He has no attachment to T'rere, and he has his own people's safety to worry about. Demiurge can then ask "Even if that means harm to others?" or "You've no right so long as you harm others!" Hearing that, Gur III gives pause, before standing. He says that if the group insists on remaining, then he'll personally rip them out of his sight. He draws the sickles, and the fight with '''Chief Gur III''' begins.

It requires some tactical thinking from the party, especially as the foe wields the passive "Counter". Thankfully things should get easier when the boss summons in ferals that Derrik should be able to Charm. Through some careful thinking and planning, the party should tear through his HP and knock him to his knees. He pants and is prone, unable to lift either sickle. As he lays there, the party presses forwards, Manya telling him that it's over, time to surrender. Gur III leans up, still panting. He visibly pauses, as if trying to think of some way to get out of the mess he's in, though in the end says that he will open negotiations with the chief of T'rere. Hearing that, Derrik says that he's to leave any guards at the border of the settlement, to which Gur III sighs and says he will.
----
After that, the group doesn't need to do further with Gurah, and are free to simply laze about, do sidequests, or whatever to occupy their time. Come the deadline, and the plot progresses.

;Augua 16th

On this day, Derrik says that Gur III should be arriving. He tells the Dragon that they should keep an eye on him, in case he tries anything. Demiurge agrees, and the two head out towards the border. Once there, they can see the mantis approaching, him flanked by the Bowman from before, and a bear man. When he sees the duo approach, he waves his guards back, and says that he'll have to respond to this issue personally. Derrik then leads him away from the guards, who look on with venom. As they go, Manya steps out of shop and tries to follow, though Derrik tells her this is business for the higher rungs of this settlement. 

They enter Miza's hut, leading him past Grant and before the puma in her throne-room. Gur III is tense before her, and Miza mentions that those that approach her typically take a knee. Gur III rolls her eyes at this, though Derrik mentions that he doesn't have much room refusing. Hearing that, the mantis wearily takes a knee. As he does, Miza draws her scimitar and rises from her throne, walking around the bug as she fingers the blade. 

She tells him that their village has been suffering for a long time. Many villagers have been caught passed out, many scouts injured, and many feeling hopeless. Gur III tries to say that he alone is not responsible for the land failing to bear fruit, before Miza stamps down between his shoulders and gets him more prone. She demands he be quiet while she speaks. She draws her foot from him and continues walking, before asking him if he knows how many have been buried, and asking if he knows how many youths will never see a better world. Gur III wearily says that he suffered this pain too, only for her to stamp down again, driving his whole body against the ground.

She tells him that there's no excuse trying to get her sympathy. T'rere could've been a nice and sustainable community, but people like him split off, and now multiple people are suffering, his own included. If he cared about them, he'd go through the effort of unifying them and allowing the resources to be spread amongst each of them. Gur III tries to get up, though Miza's foot keeps him in place. She then asks if he cares about his people, to which he pauses, but replies that he will go back on his protection. He'll have his men refrain from attacking the people of T'rere if they're ever on their territory.

Throughout this whole display, Demiurge can't help but feel slight worry. He can say that "You can get up" or "Yeah, sounds good". However, Miza says that that's not good enough. She says that, for one, he his to renounce his position of chief, and leave control of his men under her control. Gur III widens his eyes, and says that he can't agree to that. Miza then remarks that if he refuses to follow, then she reminds him that her men beat him once. Gur III gives pause again, though gives a hefty sigh. He swears that he'll give her all of his power. Miza nods, before stepping away from him and sitting on her throne, Gur III now lifting himself to his knees.

She then tells the mantis that he's not quite finished yet. When famine started to strike the village, they started to mark the burial spots of their dear friends, now beginning to put names to each. She says that for the damage he's done, he is to give some form of penance. Grant and Derrik will bring him to the graveyard, and he will be required to apologize to each and every one. Gur III says that that's just insulting, though Miza simply says that he has no right telling her what is or isn't right. Either way, the two animals aligned with Miza flank Gur III, and march off...
----
Miza and Demiurge are each side by side, watching from a distance as Grant and Derrik watch the mantis as he goes gravestone to gravestone, kneeling before each and bowing his head in penance. Demiurge then asks the lady if she had to go that hard. However, Miza asks if he can imagine how many youths she felt go limp. Ever since the village chose to secede into branches, everything's gone wrong. And now this bug is a prime example of it biting them as well. She says that for as much as they try to make themselves victims, they need to be taught the consequences of their actions. 

Miza says that a stern hand needs to be dealt to keep the peace. If not for her words, then half of the village may very well be dead today. And through this, Gur III will learn how wrong he is, and he can spend the rest of his days finding some way to make up for the damage he's caused. And if not, then a harsh hand needs to remove the weed from the crop. She turns to Demiurge, and says that Gurah is only one of several problems. They'll have to branch out further to establish a safer society for all of them. She recommends he relax. For the future, she expects to look into Gurah to get a read on the kind of people they have there. Might serve well for claiming another settlement.

Either way, the day was rounding out, they should rest.
===Medium===
;Augua 17th

This day, Demiurge and Derrik are heading out towards the border of T'rere. As they do, Manya comes out to accompany them. Derrik tells her that they're on direct orders from the chief, though Manya says that after what she's done for the settlement, she's certain that she can do more. Besides, she needs to head out for more material. Derrik shrugs, and supposes that they should head out anyways. Players are able to fast travel to the location, or they can go through the Glimmering Woods again.

They soon arrive at Gurah, the tension currently being far less than before when the trio initially arrived, though they can still feel a slight bit of it. They stepped in, and would be greeted by a few disapproving stares. They'd even see that squirrel Bowman from before, Derrik remarking that he's been seeing him a lot more than he expected. The Bowman simply replies that since Gurah's been taken, his guard duty's been reduced. Derrik, however, replies that this is for the better. Their unification will all out of despair, be patient.

The Bowman seems unconvinced, though still steps back. The group continue walking through Gurah. Derrik says that he and Manya may as well search about random areas, and he leaves Demiurge to his own thing. Players are now able to act on their own to walk around.
*In the chief's hut, Gur III sits, though he's currently got the bear beside him. He's downtrodden, sitting dejectedly on his throne, though said throne's been torn up, rendering it only a stool. Seeing the Dragon appear, he says that he's done what he was asked already. Demiurge will notice that there's a lot less grace and sternness to his voice than before. Demiurge asks "What're you gonna do?" Gur III says that it doesn't really matter. From this day on, he's just a villager, and just as vulnerable as any other animal.
*In a more squarish-hut than others, there's a bunch of soft leaves laid about for others to lay on. In it is a flamingo lady with white feathers and a soft pink robe. She greets the Dragon, saying that she's the town's masseuse. When people were worried, they'd come to her and she'd work her magic on them. Demiurge remarks "You seem fairly chipper". She replies that she's quite used to keeping up her spirits. She says that she's a well respected member of the town for her service, so she usually gets some good benefits around here. She can't help but wonder how the change in powers will affect her business, though. She introduces herself as '''Vala'''.
*There's a hut with bunches of wood set around, brandishing benches on it that have all sorts of scraps of wood, metal, and other stuff on them. In there is a beetle guy, him looking at the Dragon. He says that he was tasked with preparing the weapons they have on field. His craft isn't very refined, but with the material they have around, they're able to get by. Demiurge can then say "You seem like you'll be quite handy". The beetle supposes that's true. He shrugs and says that he's '''Mar''', by the way.

Either way, the group reconvenes. Derrik says that he made sure to spread the word. Gurah is now knowledgeable of what's going on, and they'll be ready to accept Miza as their leader. Manya remarks that she found a shop for constructing weaponry, and says that she should have an easier time finding material now. Demiurge then says that Miza said this was only one of several problems around T'rere. Derrik says that that's true. He suspects they'll be called to action sooner or later, but first she'll want to know the kind of people they talked to. Derrik remarks he hasn't noticed anyone other than Gur III's guards, though he doubts the lot of those guys will help. Demiurge supposes they'll have to think on it a little more.

;Augua 18th

The next day opens. And when it does, Derrik says that Chief Miza has chosen to reach out to former chief Gur III. Demiurge asks what she's doing, to which he replies that she said "cooperating". He suspects that she may be getting more of a lay of the land from him, while also looking for recommendations from him on warriors. Demiurge asks what they're to do, to which he replies that he supposes that while she works, then they'll have to examine the people they'd investigated in combat, now that they have some free time. Demiurge asks if they can relax, though Derrik says in times like these, they don't have a lot of time to laze around.

Anyways, they oughta get Manya, and they should gather a few of the people from Gurah. And so, out the group goes...
----
Demiurge, Derrik, and Manya are each out in the Glimmering Forest, and before them are quite a few people. There's Vala and Mar from before, but they also see the squirrel bowman from before, and beside him is a frog lady with a boomerang at her side. And then there's a deer guy with a spear strapped to his back, and a rhino guy with a pickaxe. Demiurge introduces Vala and Mar respectively, Derrik introduces the bowman and boomerang lady as '''Akfa''' and '''Cera'''. Manya, meanwhile, introduces the deer as '''Sumul''', and the rhino as '''Erna''', though she has a noticeable bit of venom towards his name. Said rhino, meanwhile, looks a little uncomfortable before her, Demiurge not failing to notice their brief interaction.

Either way, Derrik says that the six of them have been picked out for a shared purpose: to see who's fit to be among their ranks. Mar says that he's not really interested, and Akfa says he doesn't want a part of what the three of them are after. However, Derrik says that work is mandatory among the people of either settlement. If the appropriate people don't pitch in when they're requested, they could look at a lot of chaos for any of them. The six of them were chosen, and now depending on how they're doing, a few of them might be selected into the special forces.

Akfa grimaces and sulks back, though Vala says that if this is for the good of their community, then she supposes it's for the best. Either way, Cera asks what the six of them are to do here, to which Derrik says that he's still, sort of, organizing. Akfa gives a slight snicker at his clear naivete, prompting a pout from the lemur. As if spurred on by his teasing, Derrik decides on what should be a good show of strength: seeing the six of them perform against each other. Demiurge asks if he's being serious, to which he assures that Akfa clearly wants fast results, and what faster result is there than this? The squirrel seems uncertain, as do several of the other animals there. Derrik then speaks up again, remarking that he gave his answer, so this is what they ought to be doing now. The six snap up, before beginning to mobilize.

Meanwhile, the three of them are sitting back and watching as the six battle. Akfa is seen scaling the trees to try and get a vantage strike on the many others, while Cera would utilize her agility and boomerang to whip through various foes. Mar appears to be scrounging for whatever he can find, while Vala hangs back and seems to meditate. Sumul can be seen ramming Erna, though he uses his pickaxe to try and block him. And all the while, the group watches, each glancing between each animal to try and personally decide who might be their next teammate. Demiurge can't help but keep an eye on Vala, while Derrik personally hopes not to get that bowman, not because he's bad, but because he's sure he'll just cause trouble.

After a bit, Demiurge notices Vala step up, before she lunges towards Mar to deliver a powerful finger-tipped punch, jabbing at a spot at him that seemed to lock up his arm. She then quickly weaves behind him, before delivering another stab strike, locking up his leg. Then, with a kick, she knocks the beetle down. She takes an arrow to the side, though she weaves towards cover to work the arrow out while she massaged the pained area. Meanwhile, the rhino man would shoulder ram the tree the bowman was on, who was knocked down. Seeing the turn of events, the three party members were suddenly a little more invested, particularly in the flamingo.

The fight continued, the flamingo seeming to've completely healed off her wound with her hand movements, and going on to deliver precise strikes. The process repeated, until she eventually downed the rest of the foes. They didn't look like they lost their stamina, but instead, they seemed unable to move. With them down, she'd give a sigh before standing before the group. Manya remarks that she did outstanding there, each of them clapping in response.
----
The three stand up near Vala, Derrik telling her that she's performed admirably compared to the rest of the group. And for that, he says that her aid will be more than instrumental in the special group's further efforts. Demiurge, however, can't help but ask how this'll affect her business. She replies that the people home might have to wait a little, but she usually keeps up normal reservations, and as such will simply be unable to act with the group on one of her days. Hearing that, Derrik says that they may have to review her schedule with Chief Miza, but for now, they should head home and report the news. They also recommend Vala comes with. 

With that, the four leave, soon arriving back at T'rere, just in time for Chief Miza to've come back from her meeting. The four head into Miza's hut, and they kneel before her, Vala following with slight delay. Derrik says that this flamingo lady has performed fantastically, and they think that they should recruit her. Miza asks her a bit about herself, to which Vala says that she's a masseuse back in Gurah that alleviates the stress of those there. Hearing that, the panther furrows her brow before asking if Derrik's quite certain. Demiurge assures that she did really well, they personally saw her.

She explains that she's gotten to know the body really well and knows how to strike them where it hurts and how to hit a body back into working well. Miza furrows her brow again before leaning back in her throne, saying that the best she supposes they can do is to see her out in the field. Derrik nods in affirmation, and Demiurge asks what she learned in her meeting. The chief says that she'd spoken with Gur III about the nearby settlements in hopes of getting to know their perspective on who they should go after. She said that after some consideration, she now knows a little more about how the western settlement, '''Hafa'''. 

That settlement bears quite a few larger ferals, the likes of which several scouts rode upon. Those creatures tend to be able to act with more frequency than the people they've already encountered, so they'll have to keep their wits about. Derrik assures that they shall take down the enemy forces, though Miza says that some more observation will be required. She'll have a few well trained men observe the area to try and determine who they're dealing with, but the four of them will be expected to act at a moment's notice. She then dismisses them, and with a nod, they each leave... except form Demiurge.

Seeing him stay behind, Miza asks him what's on his mind. Demiurge says that today, they were just tasked with tugging someone out of their usual business to put their lives on the line. Miza says that any and all hands are required to keep their home running. Gurah helped, but their lands don't offer a lot of sustenance for them. But with this next settlement, they suspect that they'll have a hell of a banquet. She says that their people needs this to survive, and any extra hands will be all the more necessary for it. 

;Augua 19th - Augua 22

This morning, the four of them are free to do whatever. At the start of the morning, Vala submits a paper with dates that she works on, which Derrik quickly transfers over to Grant. During this period, the lot of them are able to do whatever, which means performing more sidequests, or indulging in a couple new pass times:
*'''Crafting''', a service offered by Mar, which allows them to combine weapons/armor the party collected and combine them together to hopefully get better stats or to absorb whatever skill is attached to one of the weapons/armor
*'''Toy Shop''', a service offered by Sumul, players can go here to collect vanity items with which they can decorate their room with
*'''Eavesdrop''', a service (unofficially) offered by Akfa, Cera, and Sumul. Players can near the scouts of Gurah and listen in on them, learning of a few key areas in the overworld they can go to, where they can probably find interesting creatures or gear that could help them

;Augua 23rd - Septmi 1st

On this day, Demiurge and Derrik wake up, only for Grant to tell Derrik the next course of action. He tells the two that Miza says that they need to head out now, to Hafa. Hearing that, Derrik supposes that it's time to group up the cavalry. With that, the lemur and the dragon decide to head out, intent on finding Manya and Vala. 
----
With the group together, they decide to head west, opting to go in from the Gurah side, which means going southwest from there to get on the more appropriate western trail. Going this way will lead players out and into the '''Lake Hafa Region'''. This region largely consists of plains with sparse ferals about, though there are some feral rhinos, feral bears, and other such that are being ridden by scoutsmen. Upon arriving, Derrik reminds the group of the mission: make it to Hafa, and don't kill the ferals. According to the information gathered by scouts, the settlement should be towards the other side of the lake, so they should stick near the bank.

With that recommendation, the group presses on, dealing with the creatures nearby, as well as occasional surprise attacks straight from the lake. They press on, before eventually being cut off half way to their destination. Once there, they approach a river heading southwards, there being a bridge between them and the way forwards. They go to cross it, only for someone to stop them on the other side. This is a lizard woman sitting on a saddled rhino. Seeing the trespassers, she holds her spear aloft, demanding they halt. 

Vala says that they're sent hear by orders of their chief to establish some sort of connection between their settlements. They're suffering back home, and they say that Hafa's cooperation will be instrumental in everyone's prosperity. The lizard, however, says that she doesn't care where she's from, Hafa's not accepting any outsiders right now. Manya remarks that this girl doesn't appear willing to go down without a fight. After confirmation on the player's part, the group battles the '''Bridge Guard'''. Hers is a fight that relies on her being really strong and hitting a lot, which means players should utilize defensive techniques and Vala's ability to paralyze foes shortly. It's a little tricky, though, on account of the enemy's ability to first use the rhino to attack, and for the lizard to use her own skills.

It's a little tricky, but players should be able to overpower this foe soon. With that, the bridge guard is left panting, limp over her rhino. She groans and says that she can't let her people be beaten. She quickly smacks the rhino's rear, prompting it into action! At that, it begins wildly stamping about, smashing down at the bridge. It quakes with each hit, and as it wobbles, Derrik says that they have to run! They each race off, just in time to avoid the bridge falling under them. They pant and pant, Derrik saying that that's very annoying. Manya, however, says that they should probably follow the lake, maybe they'll find another path across, or maybe some shallower waters.
----
The player progresses further and further, following along the edge of the river. Forwards they go, until eventually coming towards some trees a few north from the southern edge of the map. When there, Manya checks the trees, looking at one that's wider than her shoulder span. She remarks that they could probably use one of these to cross. Derrik says that they don't have very good tools for this, and trying to find a woodcutter could just lead to a longer period of searching and questioning citizens. However, Vala steps forwards and assures that she thinks she can manage something.

She approaches the tree they're looking at, before softly planting her knuckles against it. She adjusts her stance and holds the pose, before slowly bringing her arm back. Then, she swiftly chops it forwards, managing to crack the trunk and send the thing toppling down, creating a makeshift bridge between this edge of the river and the other. The party's shocked by the display, and Vala steps back towards their side. She says that she had to work through a lot of tough hides in her work. Either way, they found their route forwards.

With that, the group's free to step over this southwards river, and thus free to continue on the route towards Hafa. Here, they have to push through more ferals, more soldiers, and very rarely mounts, the likes of which the rider can act and the mount can act. But they're still more than able to progress, arriving at the front gates of Hafa, it seeming to have scaffolding reaching out past the water, creating several dock-like structures. The front gate has a trio guarding it. One's an anteater with a long string of beads, one's a boar with a large, pike-like stake, and riding on top of a bear was a jaguar lady with a large club. Seeing the oncoming party, she raises her club and points it at them, commanding them to halt. Seeing them, Derrik says that they're here to establish cooperation among the settlements, and as such, would seek to establish one such with these people. The lady on the bear declares that she heard talk of them galivanting through these plains, and already know that they bring chaos.

Hearing that, Manya remarks that it sounds like combat's inevitable. They won't challenge until Demiurge gives the "ok", at which they challenge the '''Gate Guards'''. The jaguar deals quite a bit of damage, the boar tends to direct blows more towards themselves than others, and the anteater uses support magic. It's a fairly normal match up, and players should rely on techniques intended to undo buffs as well as status ailments, so as to try and stop the boar's movements. But through smart play, the group should be able to overwhelm the party, thus forcing them to flee from the group and racing into Hafa itself, leaving the settlement nice and open to the party.

Said settlement is partially on land, though features docks out into the water, which forms more town that are suspended over the water upon thick wood pillars. Many of the villagers have clearly worked towards sealing themselves off into the various houses, while many guards are around. Players have to work through them and get further into Hafa. Through more and more, they eventually find one wooden cabin with some fancy decorations on it that remind the group of Miza's, Vala warning the group that a powerful foe awaits them ahead. After confirmation, the group presses on. However, as they approach, the carriage-sized door opens up, letting someone out. 

Out comes, riding upon a feral hippo, a muscular horse lady with a spear in her hands. She spies the group, and says that they heard about the invaders. She's been preparing herself for this moment for a while now. She doesn't intend to keel over while trespassers threaten her way of life. Derrik says that her selfish actions are the ones threatening people, and Vala (if she's available) says that Gurah's been suffering because of Hafa's hoarding. She says that for everyone, she will take her down! Either way, the horse chief scoffs and says that it doesn't matter what happens elsewhere. They've been able to grow without anyone else, and they won't need anyone else in their lives, especially if they're acting like this! With that, the fight against '''Chief Bailey''' starts.

Bailey's claim to fame is her ability to improve her defenses, and her hippo's multi-targeting Smash attacks. Said hippo tends to perform their multi-target smash after Bailey uses high-level water magic, which is unfortunately useful for this boss, because her high water magic has a low chance to freeze party members, making the Smash deal more damage on frozen foes. After bringing them down to half health, combat suddenly halts as Bailey's mount backs up, before suddenly leaping into the water. Seeing her flee, Derrik looks over and asks where they've gone, to which Manya points out that she's moving elsewhere! The creature makes it to another dock, before climbing up, Derrik noting that none of them have a good chance of hitting her right now, though the enemy points out that she's plenty capable herself. 

At this point in the fight, players are forced to battle Bailey at range, though it's more difficult than before. Neither party can use normal attacks or physical skills, which thankfully means that the hippo won't Smash anymore. However, now the horse and hippo utilize their magical attacks more often and the party's forced to use magic attacks. It's a somewhat arduous fight, and once she's down to about a quarter of her health, Bailey groans in annoyance before slamming the butt of her spear on the ground. She hollers for her guards, who pool out on the docks she's at. Then, her hippo swims through the water to get before the group, where she intends to finish them with some good old fashioned grit. And now, players are forced to contend with both her old moveset, and the magical attacks and buffing/debuffing from the guards far off. But, as long as players choose their targets wisely, they should be able to down the ranged forces, and also overwhelm Bailey, her hippo falling down as she slumps over. 

With that, the two are left panting, her spear having falling to the docks while she tries desperately to lift herself. Meanwhile, the group approaches her, Derrik saying that there's no use resisting anymore. They've taken down the hardest of their forces and now fought through her "brilliant" strategy. She pants and pants, but eventually relents. She says that she will lessen the strictness of her patrol, before Derrik says that they'll need to speak with Miza about the terms of their surrender. Hearing that, Bailey asks if they seriously intend to have her tread upon an enemy settlement, though Manya points out that they beat them once, they can do it again. Bailey pauses at that, before sighing and says she will be at T'rere come Septmi 2nd.

;Septmi 2nd

This day, Demiurge, Derrik, and Manya are out to look westward, awaiting Hailey's arrival. As they do, Miza steps out of her hut herself, Grant trailing close behind and eyeing her wearily. Derrik asks what she's doing out here, to which she says that she requires a bit of space for negotiation. Demiurge then asks "We need cooperation" or "A fight won't help things". Either way, Miza says that she knows what she's doing. Either way, she steps past the gates, Demiurge and Manya try to step forwards, but Derrik motions them to stay. They keep on watching, watching as Miza steps out, the figure of Hailey on her hippo stepping out into view. She rides in, and the two chiefs soon meet a fair distance outside of T'rere's buildings. 

Hailey says that Miza's men did a lot of damage to her friends, while the panther looks over the other chief. Hailey demands that the panther speaks up and answers. Miza keeps a cold stare and simply approaches, her saying that she did what was necessary for her people, and that Hailey's people happened to be in the way of their well being. However, it appears that Hailey has the opportunity to fix her wrongdoing. Hearing that, Hailey says that Miza needs to put something down if she's to accept any of this! Miza glowers at her, and says that she'll either comply, or face sheer destruction. 

Hailey takes this as a threat, before kicking her hippo's hips to trigger it to action. It rears back, before sending forth one of those water spells the party had to deal with. As it approaches, Miza reaches down to her side, before flashing her scimitar out, reducing the spell to droplets and flecks of ice. Startled, Hailey and her hippo send more water blasts, a few striking Miza though she slashes more of them, her slowly advancing. As she does, Hailey decides she can't keep doing chip damage, and opts to charge, her hippo racing towards Miza while she raises the spearhead towards the panther.

Seeing her approach, the panther threw her scimitar to the ground, stabbing it into the soil and leaving her unarmed. She goes forwards to meet the chief, before she ducks down under the spear, her going to wrap her arms around the hippo's neck. She takes the brunt of the charge and is forced to dig her feet in to slow down, though Hailey seems certain that she can't handle this. She raises her spear up to try and stab her, only to wobble as the hippo's charging motion is halted. Miza's reached down more and more such that she's stretched one arm under the mount's stomach and another around her neck. She heaves and lifts up, managing to raise the massive animal over her shoulders. 

The party's stunned, even Derrik surprised. She simply holds the pair overhead while Hailey is stunned. Then, with a heave, she tosses them to the side, them hurtling through the air such that the hippo ends up crushing Hailey's right leg under their side. The horse lets out a scream of pain, herself frozen in shock. While they're left like that, Miza walks over to her left behind scimitar, which she plucks from the ground, and then walks over to the duo. As she approaches, she points out that there are people starving, meanwhile the people of Hafa have been hoarding them like shiny rocks, not even bothering to eat them apparently. 

Miza's soon near the fallen pair, at which Hailey makes one last desperate stab towards Miza. However, she catches the spear in her hand, and snaps the spearhead off. She says that for them to properly apologize, they'll have to give up some of their stock. Hailey's clearly alarmed, worried about her insinuation. Miza says that what she offers is a fine start, but they'll require so much more. She the kneels down and angles her sword towards the hippo's underbelly. Hailey, meanwhile, can feel the creature seize up upon contact, while hearing the blade glide through it. It's squirming, Hailey pitifully beats against the ground and the creature's back in some futile attempt to make this stop, but she can still hear the cutting noise and feel the hippo's dying struggles.

Eventually, it stops, and Hailey can see the light in its eyes faded. Miza lifts the creature up just enough for Hailey to crawl away, though not before the horse notices a strip of still dripping meat in the panther's hand. She remarks that this looks like cause for a hell of a feast, before saying that she won't get rid of all of those mangey ferals. However, she expects them to send a good majority of them, else she'll see to it that all of those creatures will go to "better use". And, of course, Hafa will be under the control of T'rere, and by the time the ferals have been picked, she'll be stripped of any and all authority. Hailey can only struggle to her feet, using the spear like a cane, and limp away, unable to look away for extended periods of time at her mount.

The three onlooking party members, meanwhile, are mortified, even Grant. Miza, meanwhile, sheathes her sword, picks up the hippo, and marches onto T'rere. There, she tells Derrik to prepare a feast for tonight. Demiurge, however, stops her. He can say "That was too cruel" or "Was that all necessary?" To the former, Miza says that a firm hand is needed for the survival of the settlement, she's already said this. To the latter, she says that everything she's done was for the ensured subservience of Hafa, them not being so weak as Gurah. Either way, she says that each of these foes consider themselves alphas in their own right, and if nature's shown anything, it's that an alpha needs to show strength to keep control. She just so happened to cull the lessers, and now they're falling in line with their tails between their legs. Besides, this way a lot of people that need it will be fed.

The chief then says that they should tell Gurah that food is coming, so they should show they deserve some of it. Miza continues stepping to her hut, leaving the three party members and grant to merely look on. Manya said that that was... astounding... Derrik says that she understands keeping the people alive, but being the kind of guy he is, he can understand the bond between person and feral. Not to mention hurting someone that badly... Grant says that Miza believes extreme measures are needed to keep people in line, and he wouldn't be surprised if Hailey never attempted anything after that kind of a punishment. Demiurge can then say "We could've done something else" or "Maybe... maybe..."

Either way, there's a pause, and Grant says that he'll have to report back to Miza. In the meantime, the group should probably check in on Gurah and spread the word, just be careful about what details they bring up. The trio nod, and Grant heads back to the hut. Manya says that she doesn't think she wants to be a part of this, and opts to leave the group to keep on working. Meanwhile, Derrik turns to Demiurge, and asks if he's going to stay. Demiurge shakes his head, and says he'll accompany. 
----
Elsewhere, towards the east, a lithe black cat with a set of sharp needles in a pouch at his hip looks on, staring through what seem to be a set of binoculars. He appears to've been watching T'rere curiously, having now seen Miza in action. He'd also seen a few of the members clearly shaken by her actions. He watches them head outwards in the direction of Gurah. As they do, he searches his satchel for other clothing...
===Penultimate===
Demiurge and Derrik have left T'rere and stand in Gurah, the many residents wandering around, and Gur III's hut appears to be stripped of its decoration. The duo arrive at the front gates, and seem somber. There's a palpable pause, before Derrik says that he'll cover the commoners, while Demiurge should probably consult with the scouts. Demiurge nods, and the two split. Now, players take control of Demiurge through this section, where he's supposed to talk to Sumul, Akfa, and Cera. 
*Sumul - When he approaches Sumul, Demiurge tells him that Miza will extend food to them, as long as they earn her favor. Hearing that, Sumul sounds kinda happy. He assures that he'll do all of her favors no matter what! He'll even transfer to T'rere if they wish!
*Akfa - When he approaches Akfa, Demiurge tells him that Miza will extend food to them, as long as they earn her favor. Hearing that, the bowman says that he hates how she acts like she's doing them a favor. Still, he supposes he should do well for them, for Gurah's sake.
*Cera - When he approaches Cera, Demiurge tells her that Miza will extend food to them, as long as they earn her favor. Hearing that, she says that she'll do whatever it takes to get her people the food. She also says that the group should peddle any jobs to them, and she'll personally pass word to other scouts.

After that, Demiurge starts heading back to where he last saw Derrik, and happens to pass by a chinchilla lady who motions him to follow. She asks the Dragon if he's happy with his lot in life right now. Demiurge asks what she means, and she replies that not a lot of people would be happy carrying out such a cruel will. Then again, not many would be able to free themselves from such a will. The Dragon's a powerful individual, isn't he? She says he should keep an eye out in the future. He and only he can make the change he wishes. And with that, she continues forwards, leaving Demiurge confused, and thinking he should follow her.

Before he can, though, Derrik calls for him. The Dragon turns to the lemur, the latter saying he'd told many men, including Vala. He thinks that word should spread far through Gurah now. Demiurge says that he spoke with the scouts, so they should be able to transfer info. With that, Derrik says that they should continue forwards and report back to Miza. The Dragon follows, though peers back curiously. As he does, the two step past Vala's shop, where Demiurge notices the chinchilla from before, except she appears to be in the middle of a line for the shop. Demiurge gives pause at that, though Derrik continues them forwards.
----
They walk along Glimmering Woods, a noticeable silence among the two of them as they progress. As they do, Demiurge brings himself to ask Derrik why he serves Miza. At that, he replies that ever since Deni, his forefathers and foremothers had bred to be among the best animal tamers they could be, and always in T'rere. He supposes that ever since he remembered, he hasn't had much perspective on anything outside. 

Demiurge says he's getting perspective now, does that change anything? Derrik then points out that Miza's not kind to those that go behind her back. If she were to catch him doing anything untoward to T'rere, there's no telling what she can do to him. As long as he keeps on this path, people might get hurt, but ultimately, a lot more people will live better. Demiurge says that servants like him and himself are part of her threat, which prompts a pause from Derrik. He says that they shouldn't talk about this when they get this close to T'rere. Maybe the ceremony will lift spirits. 
----
Later that day, Miza's set up a feast at her own facility, where Demiurge, Derrik, Manya, Grant, and other scouts are invited. There, hippo meat is being served, much of the attendees looking on weary while the other scouts are happily digging in. The feast goes on, when players are given the chance to either "Eat" or "Excuse self". To the former, he takes a few bites from the meat with a bit of apprehension, while Miza is very eagerly snacking, Grant trying to match her pace. To the latter, Demiurge sets his silverware down, and backs away from the table, a few men eyeing him before going back to their meals.

Either way, the feast keeps on, when Derrik asks what they'll be doing after this. Miza says that this meal cannot last forever. They'll need more food, which means they'll be gathering plenty from Hafa soon. She says that they should collect in seven days, and that in the meantime, they'll be seeing how well each group's willing to behave. Manya asks what'll determine which gets chosen to be eaten. Miza says that they can agree on which mounts get sent, or T'rere can choose. Either way, they'll have to provide a sufficient amount. 

The countdown won't start until tomorrow, and she'll have them explain the circumstances to them. Then, it'll be up to them. In the meantime, she has her own thoughts on which settlement should be dealt with, but she'll say it tomorrow. Derrik and Manya seem to understand, while Demiurge sits/stands there.

;Septmi 3rd

On this day, the usual party's tasked with heading towards Hafa, though before they go, the group decides to pick up Vala. Demiurge says that they need someone to help them get into higher spirits, plus she doesn't currently know about what's going on. The flamingo's been briefed on the situation, from Hafa's submission to the cruel display Miza put on. She asks them if they're really ok with that, when Manya brings up that a lot of people are hungry. If they don't go for this, then a lot of people could die, unfortunately. Vala doesn't look comfortable with this, but will stand by the current group.

Sure enough, they soon arrive at Hafa, where many of the citizens clearly appear worried. They see the lizard guard from before holding onto her rhino as if it'd be snatched away in an instant, there's the jaguar lady standing between the party and her horse, and plenty of other mounts. As they stand, Demiurge remarks that he can't handle this. Derrik says that the four of them should be able to handle this anyways. Demiurge splits from the group as they do their announcement, and walks out towards one of the rivers nearby, sitting down at it and looking into the rapids. 

As he sits, the strange chinchilla from before can be seen approaching from the other side of the river, sitting essentially at the other side of it. Seeing them, the Dragon raises a brow and remarks they're pretty far from Gurah. The chinchilla, however, seems to ignore that remark. They say that if Demiurge is still uncertain, there's a place he can go to to learn more about his options. They say that he should cross the mountain range, though that he should come alone. Demiurge asks why he should trust them, to which they reply they can't prove they mean no ill harm, but will show him they intend only a a window to a better life, though they hope it can become a doorway.

With that, the chinchilla leaves. Demiurge is curious, and turns towards where he left the party. However, he gets up, gives his wings a few test flaps, before using them to toss him across the river. And then, he decides to head towards the mountain range this adventure started on...
----
Players are hereby tasked with progressing through the mountain range, now actually able to go towards the southern edge, out towards the original spot of Deni's village. As he progresses, however, he hears some footsteps nearby. Demiurge turns towards the source, spying a very weathered-looking ox, bearing a broken horn and scars. It huffs as it sees Demiurge and seems ready to rear back. The Dragon seems to be gearing up for battle, when another set of feet appear from nearby.

Demiurge turns, when he sees the chinchilla from before. The ox is still charging at the Dragon, when the chinchilla leaps high up into the air, before tossing a set of needles down to strike at the territorial foe, who's forced to rear back from the blow as the stranger lands behind it. Demiurge asks the stranger just who they are, to which they say that they can't be totally honest, but if they're to survive this fight, then they'll expose one thing about themselves. They reach for their clothing, before suddenly whipping it upwards. Now, unveiled is a lithe cat with bunches of pouches around him. Demiurge's perplexed by the sudden appearance change, to which the strange cat says that he'll explain later. For now, they fight. With that, Demiurge and the Stranger battle the '''Battle Hardened Ox'''.

During this fight, the cat reveals that he's a '''Camouflager''', meaning he knows about not just blending in with people, but also with blending in with the environment. During this, not only is he capable of stabbing damage with his needles, but he also has the ability to hide either himself or Demiurge from the foe's attacks, making them immune to targeting for a turn. With his assistance, players should be able to overwhelm the Ox, forcing it to flee. With that, the cat pockets his needles, and says that they dealt with that handily, didn't they? 

Demiurge asks who he is, to which the cat says they'll have to continue forwards for some details. And so, the Dragon presses on, following behind the cat as they reach the end of the Mountain Range, where they then have to go east from where the old village was, opposite from the former Monster Capital. They approach, soon finding a gate with a pair of armadillo guards wielding spears on either side. Seeing the cat with the Dragon, they nod in some sort of silent conversation, before stepping aside. The cat leads him further in, where he introduces Demiurge to the settlement of '''Nokut''', a settlement that's got a large canopy hanging overhead and fairly small buildings with various people of various kinds of lifestyles.

He says that this settlement allows those in it the chance to be great, and the chance to achieve the greatest life to their ability. The cat introduces himself as '''Amak''', and says he's one of the top workers here. Here, those born in can laze about, and choose to do certain tasks, and in reward, get fed for their service. This system doesn't require their higher ups to enact atrocities like Miza does, while keeping those that wish it fed. Hearing that, Demiurge asks what about thsoe that don't work for it. Amak says that they can't just dole out food to any random, else everyone will eventually either suffer, or they'll be stuck turning into something like Miza. 

Amak swears that if Demiurge chooses, then he can come here and no longer have to perpetrate the atrocities Miza performs. And if he wishes, he can bring his friends along. Hearing that, the Dragon clearly still seems unconvinced. Amak says that he clearely needs time to think. He's free to, but he needs to realize that if he waits to gather his thoughts too long, his opportunity will leave him in the dust.
----
Demiurge returns home, where Derrik and Vala are each out at T'rere's front gate, waiting for him. They ask where he's gone, to which he replies that he's been clearing his head. Vala then says that she can work some of that stress out if he wishes, and Demiurge seems ready to wave it off, though says that he'd like to accept it. She says that she can set one up tomorrow, and that she'll be expecting him tomorrow.

;Septmi 4th

Demiurge and Derrik are both walking, Grant actually trailing behind. The Dragon asks what he's doing, to which he replies that Miza says that come the feast, she'll want them prepared for the next mission. Miza said that their next mission will likely be their toughest one yet. They'll head eastward to engage '''Hullo''', a settlement that's set itself up to be thoroughly fortified from external attacks. Demiurge shrugs and keeps on pressing forwards, saying that he'll deal with that when the time comes. 

They keep on walking, before eventually arriving at Gurah, where the Dragon approaches Vala's building. It takes some scrunching up on the Dragon's part, but he's able to lay himself down at the floor of the location, before the flamingo climbs over him and begins getting to work. She has to put in notable effort, what with his scaly hide and what not. She asks him to talk a little if he wishes; some of the tension lies deeper than the muscles she can reach. Demiurge says that she wouldn't quite understand, though she assures that he should trust in her.

He then talks about his journey from the beginning, and after that, Vala's startled. She says that she hasn't heard a tale like that before. Demiurge says that he just wants a good world, and now this all happened. She then says that he can't have known what'd happened when he chose. She says that if there's something she's learned about those that go through here, it's that the best anyone can really do is learn from the mistakes they made the first time, and try to get better for it. Demiurge supposes that's true, but he says he's not sure how much better he can do now. Vala says that everyone will just have to be attentive to stuff like that. 

They wrap up, and Vala says that he can come by if he ever wishes, do remember that. He nods, and heads out, followed by Derrik and Grant. As they walk, Grant says that he understands how scary Miza's been, but he says that deep down, she does intend the best for those under her. She's had to face the death of friends often growing up, there not being a lot of food around here. And despite every other settlement making things harder, she still wishes to keep them fed. Derrik supposes that's true, while Demiurge contemplates the new information. 

As they walk, their movement is halted when Derrik is struck in the neck by a dart. He falls over and flops down, and Grant reaches to his side before pulling out a sling. They turn towards the source, and spy a fox with a blowgun trying to hide amongst the Glimmering Woods' trees. Grant says that that's a hunter from Hullo, Demiurge asking what they're doing out here. Grant says it doesn't matter right now, and says they'll have to take him down before he does anymore. He loads a rock onto the sling, before hurling it at the tree and jostling the hunter. With that, Demiurge and Grant are both forced to battle the '''Hullo Hunter''', Grant brandishing a fairly straightforward fighting style where he gathers strength to deal more damage, while also brandishing blinding, accuracy and evasion lowering skills.

With that, the hunter's felled. Grant scoops him up and hoists him over a shoulder. He says that they should interrogate this guy, though he'll have the scouts deal with that instead of involving the two of them. He says that in the next few days, they should probably relax, seeing how much is on their mind. With that, Demiurge has to carry Derrik while following Grant, and eventually reaching T'rere. Grant tells Demiurge to think about what he said. Things're hurting, but they're ultimately for the good of everyone that's split. Remember, Gurah was suffering too, and they'll be getting food.

Demiurge's thus left alone, and left to contemplate. If he agrees with Nokut, he won't have to hurt people anymore, but that means plenty of guys will also suffer. If he agree with Miza, people will get hurt, but more people will get fed and live a longer life. The Dragon has to decide...

;Septmi 5th - Septmi 10th

;With this, one of many different branches occur. It's not prompted by a simple Menu Choice. No, instead, players are prompted to bond with Amak or Grant, getting their Social Link up to Rank 3 (they're currently at Rank 1). The article will detail either route, and will show off the results later.

Players can bond with Grant at T'rere, and players can bond with Amak at Nokut.

;Septmi 11th
====Bond with Amak====
On this day, Miza expects to organize her soldiers in order to collect the mounts from Hafa. Derrik's told Demiurge as much, and as such he begins organizing Vala and Manya. As they walk, however, Demiurge has a thought, and stops them. He says that, today, something's going to happen. They ask what he means, and Demiurge says that he's been talking with someone, and he's been considering a few things. He himself is going away, and he doesn't want either of them getting involved, so he wishes to offer them the chance to avoid a chaos. 

Hearing that, they each give pause. Derrik says that he'd trusted Miza for a while, but seeing her in action... Manya says that she'd rather take her business far from Miza's treacherous soil. Vala says that a negative force like Miza must be defeated. Demiurge nods at their affirmation, and then begins to tell them what's going to happen...
----
The group approaches Miza's hut, flanked by other scouts. They press onwards, Miza stepping out while Grant stands beside her. Derrik takes a knee, followed by the other party members. Seeing them, she greets. She says that today, they prepare a feast for their people. Either Hafa rounded up their mounts as they should've, or they'll be personally picking them. And so, she says that it's the lot of their mission to go out and claim them. At that, Demiurge tells her "no". 

At that, Miza gives pause. She asks him what he means "no", to which he replies he's through following her. Maybe it was because he was naïve, maybe it was because he woke up here, but whatever the case, he'd been complacent thus far. But now, he refuses to follow her lead anymore! She stands up, and says that on this day, he declares a separation from T'rere, much to much of the settlement's alarm. Miza reaches for her scimitar, and says that this action runs in defiance with that of the good of the people! To defy her would be akin to defying the livelihood of the people she'll feed! Demiurge says that as long as the path to happiness involves harming others, then that's no path to live!

At that, four of the scouts reach for their shirts, before whipping them upwards to reveal themselves as a few people Demiurge saw from Nokut, including Amak. Miza, Grant, and several scouts rear back in alarm at this. While they're recoiling, each Nokut member takes out what looks like a smoke bomb, before tossing them around, Demiurge and friends immediately reaching for their noses. The bombs strike, before exploding into a noxious cloud that overwhelms much of the forces, forcing Miza and Grant to retreat into their hut while the other scouts scatter. During the attack, Demiurge and friends are running out towards the edge of the city, the Nokut members flanking them. As they run, Miza, through her overwhelming disgust, demands someone stops those guys!

As they run, the people that joined notice a few of the scouts managed to recover, and they tell the group that they'll keep them back. Amak will lead the way! They break, and the group keeps on progressing, Amak now officially joining the party. As they run, they eventually make it to the Mountain Range, only to get halted by T'rere troops. Seeing them, Amak says that if they let these guys follow, then they can report the exact location of their group. They have to drive them off here! With that, the party battles '''T'rere Scouts'''.

It's a fairly simple fight, and soon, the group's forced to retreat. At that, Amak says that they can't lose time. They have to keep moving, else risk getting into another fight. With that, they keep on running, before eventually making it on the other side of the Mountain Range, and eventually to Nokut. Once there, Amak quickly tells them how things work around their settlement, and the group's obviously a little worried about not getting food. However, he assures that given their performance, he doesn't doubt that they'll keep themselves fed.

He tells the group to make themselves comfortable, but also suspects that they should expect enemy movement soon. They found they made it as far as the Mountain Range, so they'll at least south of the mountains. He apologizes, they came here to avoid causing harm, but if Miza moves as expected, then they'll probably have to defend themselves. Manya says that she's fine with a few scraps, as long as it's with people that earn it. With that, he offers them each a house, and says he'll speak with the chief about this.

;Septmi 12th

On this day, the party awakes, starting to adjust to the new area. Apparently before nightfall, Vala decided to have one of Nokut's members send a message to Gurah, though they're far, so it'll take a while for the message to arrive. Manya, meanwhile, has found herself a shop, Nokut's metal maker immediately declaring her a master. Derrik, meanwhile, seems to've been recruited into Nokut's animal handling group. After checking them out, Amak approaches Demiurge and tells him that, as this fabled Dragon, he should come see the chief, she has an important mission to him.

With that, Demiurge joins Amak, the two walking through the secluded settlement before arriving at a hut that looks akin to Miza's, this one bearing gilded imagery of a knife. They progress, and step in, finding in the front room the hunters that joined Amak in that attack on T'rere, though they each seem injured. They nod at the two, who progress past them and into a doorway leading deeper in, uncovering a throne with a horned owl lady upon it, her with a large, single-edged axe beside her throne.

Amak assumes an upright stance while Demiurge goes to bow, though the cat motions for him to stay up. The horned owl introduces herself as '''Chief Deba'''. She says that she's had men maintaining Nokut, and has been fine keeping to herself, when one of her men noticed the mythological creature, a Dragon, wandering the cliffs. They grew more curious as it's said they went to T'rere, and that led to them watching the origin point of many of their settlements. And, in that time, they saw that Miza had encroached on other lands, using the Dragon to her advantage. She knows that they probably came here hoping to avoid the fighting, but if they stay back, then Miza might try to keep on her quest. In fact, she wouldn't be surprised if she turned her forces this side of the mountain sometime soon.

Demiurge supposes that that makes sense, and in fact Amak warned them as much the other day. In response, Amak says that they cannot rest on their laurels for now. If a calm future is to be in the cards, then they must suppress Miza before she can tear their way of life apart. Demiurge says that he's battle long enough, and that he's fine with fighting her yet again. With that, she says that their group are free to relax for the day, but come tomorrow, she'll want them to begin the assault on T'rere. They must come back with Miza bound.

With that, players are now allowed to do what they want for this day, hang out with who they want, collect material they want, and eventually sleep.

;Septmi 13th - Septmi 22nd

With this, players are tasked with crossing the Mountain Range to get back into T'rere territory. Before they press on, Amak approaches the party, before showing off those "smoke bombs". Derrik remarks that those were used when they fled T'rere, and Amak states that these are '''Skunk Bombs'''. They extracted a chemical from skunks and were able to weaponize it. He warns that if things get too dicey, they can use this to make the battlefield a little more roomy. He also says that they shouldn't be afraid to use this stuff, they'll probably be facing quite a bit of strength in numbers.

On their way forwards, they'll find that scouts are on the trail, players forced to battle hordes of them as they press on. There are more foes to contend with once they enter T'rere itself, with several guards around the area that players must either work their way around, or beat up. They tend to be fairly straightforward foes, tending to work towards buffs, debuffs, damaging, and being out in the open. 

Players may even encounter characters they'd done sidequests for throughout this era, who'll either shy away from the party, or will be forced to fight. Eventually, the group's able to reach the hut their adventure began in, where they have to face a pair of '''T'rere Guards''' before entering. However, after beating them, Manya pauses and remarks that this isn't going to be easy. Derrik says that Grant wasn't among these foes. Miza's already pretty tough, and if she's working alongside him... Amak says that they have to do something. He says that they should steel themselves and get ready.

With that, the party presses forwards into the hut, approaching Miza's throne-room, only to find that there's no one there, except for Grant. Seeing him, Demiurge asks where the chief says, to which he replies that she saw them tearing through her home, and fled. She brought a few along, though Grant himself, as well as a few others, decided to stay behind to distract them. She's far away by now, plus he has the chance to take care of a few traitors. At that, a few guards close in from behind, encircling the party. Demiurge says that Miza's only bringing harm with her philosophy, though Grant says that if he wants to see how just his path is, then he's free to look upon the houses when this is over. Grant draws his sling, the guards draw their weaponry, and like that, players are forced to battle '''Grant'''.

In this fight, Grant's fairly similar to when he was introduced as a party member, fairly straightforward and able to deal ailments and buffs. What is worrying are the backup, who players are encouraged to use Skunk Bombs on to scare them off. After enough fighting, eventually Grant's overwhelmed. He grunts and falls to his knees, panting. Amak says that he's reached a fitting end for his lot in life. Grant says that there's a book behind the throne containing names. Miza planned to give them proper solace, but they were thrust into combat. If they're so confidant in their path, then face the result of their actions, and those left behind to suffer for their mistakes. Grant gasps again, before falling to his knees. He says that this is exactly what Miza wanted to prevent, before his life fades from him.

The group looks over the carnage of their fight, Amak seeming upset particularly. Manya tries to console him, saying that they don't have to worry about attacks from T'rere. Meanwhile, Demiurge goes behind the throne, finding a book like that man said. He steps out into the comparatively less lively settlement, there not being a lot of combat in it now. Demiurge looks in the book, when Vala says that they don't have to if they don't want. Demiurge says that Grant's right: they can't just ignore the impact of their decisions. With that, he continues forwards.

They thus go house to house, finding other citizens the party may've interacted with in the past. As they do, they'll find houses reeking with death. Inside, they find people of any age dead, either alone, their family dead, or the corpses feasted on by whoever was left there. Many of the party members find themselves unable to stay and watch, but Demiurge forces himself to look into each of them, Amak also joining him. As they flee, several of the citizens try to follow, asking them what they'll do. Amak says that they'll do for them only what they earn.

Either way, the party's gathered all they can from T'rere, and leave, the Dragon, Derrik, and Manya stopping to glance back at the settlement, before continuing forwards. 

;Septmi 23rd

The group had told Deba about their news. After the fact, the group's back in Deba's hut, where she called for a meeting. She explained that Miza's been very violent, and that she's surprised she actually fled. However, she fully expects the panther to lick her wounds and mount some kind of counterattack. Besides, if not a counterattack, she'll probably organize another community like T'rere. At this, Derrik asks them what'll become of T'rere, to which she replies that those ruled over by Miza will be put under her own rule, and thus given the same rules as her others. However, this'll mean that there'll be more requirements for food than before, though Amak assures that he'll keep performing to standard.

She thus tells the group to be prepared. Considering the layout of the settlements, she fully believes that Miza would've run to Hullo, it being the one place that wouldn't belong to Nokut after the fight. She'll have scouts investigate for signs of her, and recommends the party gets ready for any kind of attack. With that, the players move onto [[#Nokut Route|Nokut Route]].
====Bond with Grant/Not try to Bond====
On this day, Miza expects to organize her soldiers in order to collect the mounts from Hafa. Derrik's told Demiurge as much, and as such he begins organizing Vala and Manya. As they walk, Demiurge gives pause, though Derrik assures that this'll be over soon. Grant told them that this is for everyone. Demiurge nods uncertain, and keeps on walking.
----
The group approaches Miza's hut, flanked by other scouts. They press onwards, Miza stepping out while Grant stands beside her. Derrik takes a knee, followed by the other party members. Seeing them, she greets. She says that today, they prepare a feast for their people. Either Hafa rounded up their mounts as they should've, or they'll be personally picking them. And so, she says that it's the lot of their mission to go out and claim them. Demiurge nods, and Derrik assures that they will perform their mission.

At that, one of the scouts gives pause before turning, asking if he's serious. Several scouts turn towards the one curiously. The scout points out what she's done to Gur III, what she's done to Hailey. Her methods have hurt so many, and Demiurge is just going to comply with that? If Demiurge bonded with Grant, he'll say that it's the best course of action, prompting the scout to say that he's blind, and that this'll only lead to devastation. If Demiurge didn't bond with Grant, he'll be silent for a while, prompting the scout to remark that he was just too lazy to stand for what's right, is that it? Either way, the scout says that if Demiurge won't aid them, then they'll put an end to this threat personally!

With that, four of the scoutsmen reach for their shirts, before whipping up, revealing themselves to be Tokut members, including Amak. The people of T'rere are shocked, before the members pull up what appears to be smoke bombs, and hurl them. The bombs produce a foul cloud that overwhelms much of the people there, forcing them to retreat. Miza says that the lot of them have some nerve threatening them at a time of great feast! Amak, meanwhile, while covering his nose and mouth, races towards Miza and tries to strike her down. The panther, however, whips her scimitar up to deflect the oncoming knives, and brawls with the smaller cat.

Meanwhile, Grant officially joins the party, and says that they have to drive off the foes before they harm any of T'rere! With that, the party's forced to fight the '''Tokut Hunters'''. It's a fairly simple fight, and the group's able to drive off the hunters. Meanwhile, Miza seems to've exhausted the cat, driving him back. Realizing he's overwhelmed, he tells Demiurge that he's made his bed, and that he better be prepared to lie in it. With that, Amak runs away with the rest of the Hunters, a few scoutsmen trying to chase him down.

At that, Miza glowers and says that an attack like that cannot go unpunished. After they gather the food, they must look into finding out wherever these foes originated from. For now, it's time to gather the mounts. Now recovering from the fight, Grant says that they shall collect, before giving her a bow. Miza tells them to take the time to recover. Meanwhile, she'll try and get her scouts to find out wherever those hunters are running to.

Later, a short scene shows many mounts being marched towards T'rere by both members of T'rere, and members of Hafa. 

;Septmi 12th

On this day, the groups each are working on transferring food from settlement to settlement, as well as around T'rere itself. The many party members have to split up to transfer, Derrik and Manya going to Hafa, Vala using the scouts to transfer food in Gurah, and Demiurge and Grant providing food to the people of T'rere. As they do, Grant says that he's happy the Dragon chose them. He understands how scary she looks, but she grew up seeing a lot of people suffering thanks to the lack of food. She wants to keep people fed, but she's very vindictive to whoever gets in the way of that. 

They keep on giving slabs of meat to the people of T'rere, Grant saying that clearly not everyone agrees. He'd never seen people like those, but if they were so bold to attempt an attack on her, then odds are they won't be opposed to trying again. Demiurge, meanwhile, after a bit of contemplation, says that he knows where they are. Hearing that, Grant gives pause. Demiurge says that they tried to convince him to join, and showed them the settlement. With that, Grant says that this is very necessary information. As soon as either of them finish giving food, either of they must go speak with Miza.

They soon wrap up, Grant doing so first, and so he heads out to speak with Miza. He meets back up with Demiurge momentarily, and tells him that he'll fetch the scouts. He asks Demiurge to head out to try and find the other party members, saying that they'll begin their mission tomorrow: assault this settlement called "Nokut". 

;Septmi 13th - Septmi 22nd

With this, players are tasked with going to Nokut, traveling across the Mountain Range to get south of T'rere. The Mountain Range seems empty, save for a few random foes. However, some players may also find that other foes are hiding in the environment to jump out and corner the party. They keep on pressing, eventually reaching the other side, where more of those hunters are about, either out in the open or hiding to attack. As they fight, some of these foes drop '''Skunk Bombs''', an item that scares a target away from battle. Players should be weary, because some of these enemies can use them to try and scare one of your party members away and make things a little trickier. 

They keep on pressing, and find Nokut's front gate flanked by some heartier looking guys than before. Seeing them, they tell the group that they cannot enter, and the party seems all ready to battle... only for the Nokut Guards to retreat and shut the gate. The party were alarmed and test the gate, finding that it wasn't going anywhere. Grant asks if Demiurge can get over the wall, though the Dragon brings up that he'd be alone on the other side, and he's too small to carry everybody. With that, Manya supposes that they should search around, maybe they can find a weak spot in the wall that Vala can break through. 

They keep on searching, looking around for any sign of their path forwards, all while enemies jump down to try and ambush them. Eventually, they make it to the backside of the settlement, where they find a hole in the gate. Grant seems confused by this, but supposes that it's a way forwards. Vala notes that she has a bad feeling about this, and suggests they should prepare before pressing on. The player chooses to continue, and in they go. When they do, they're caught off guard by a pair of sneaky rogues on the other side, who thrust the party into an Ambush, putting them at a disadvantage for this fight. Fortunately, they're able to overpower them, and Grant points out that they seem to be right behind the chief hut, at which he says if they can corner them, then they should be able to quash Nukto. 

With that recommendation, they sneak around the hut to get at the front, before pressing in. Once inside, they press on, only to find it strangely empty. They eventually reach the throne room, only to find no chief in the area, but a message saying to come to "the front square". Derrik asks if they should really listen, to which Demiurge explains that they have no other choice. So, they step out, and head to the front, where they find Amak standing. 

He looks at Demiurge and tells him he's made a terrible mistake today. Demiurge says that he can't support a system that won't let as many people live as possible. Amak concedes that in a perfect world, everyone would be fed, but today's world isn't perfect. Miza's gonoe through terrible steps to feed the people around her, and even with that, she's going to end up costing everyone deeply. Grant then tells him that they talked enough, and asks to know where their chief is. Amak says that she's not here. 

She heard about their approach, and she was willing to bring Amak himself along to save him. But the cat chose to stay here, all the better to contend with the irksome foes. Grant then says that if they intend on resisting, then they'll happily take them down. Hearing that, Amak supposes that they have no reason to talk anymore, and thus three other hunters leap out, standing beside him. They take a defensive pose, before the other three seem to transform before the group's eyes, mirroring that of Amak himself. They spread, before running circles around the party, each struggling to keep up with the real one. They run more and more, before eventually stopping in a circle around the party, each flashing a set of needles. Then, they each lunge towards the party, and they're each forced to battle '''Amak'''.

The battle's tricky. Either hunter and Amak are pretty agile, Amak even wielding High Counter, making physical strikes less likely. A hunter will be turned back to normal when they're hit, but Amak can spend a turn restoring their disguise. Worse still, Amak can make players unable to damage one of the opponents for a turn. However, through the right use of Multi Targeting skills and careful maneuvers, players should be able to take care of the foe, eventually downing Amak and his allies.

With Amak down, he pants and pants, saying that he doesn't care how much T'rere hates him, he will defy them with every breath. He hates them all, he hates what they're eventually going to do to everyone, and he hates that they fooled the Dragon into serving them. Grant tells him to shut up and demands he says where the chief is. Amak declares that he'll never tell them anywhere near her... besides, isn't this enough, felling their forces here? There's a pause, before Derrik says that the people of this settlement will be fed. Amak glowers, but he can't bring himself to talk anymore. With one final groan, he falls down, unable to keep on living.

With that, the assault on Nokut is finished.

;Septmi 23rd

The group had told Miza about the news after they defeated Amak. On this day, Derrik brought the party over to the hut, where she explains that she's managed to round up people to get some food to Nokut, though several of the people there are under investigation to test their loyalty. They chose to keep their people hungry, and of course, they can't allow that to continue. Demiurge then asks if they must pursue them further, having beaten them already. However, Miza explains that this wicked mindset came from a particular person, and as long as she's out there, she has the capacity to pursue this harmful activity.

She tells the party to be ready. She'll have some scouts investigate the people of Nokut to try and find out where their chief went, and other scouts will be searching for signs of her. If something comes up, she wants them to be ready for a fight. With that, players move onto [[#T'rere Route|T'rere Route]].
===Finale===
====Nokut Route====
====T'rere Route====
;Septmi 24th

On this day, Grant approaches Demiurge saying that they're among those tasked with looking into Nokut for clues. Demiurge asks about any other scouts, and the tiger assures that other scouts will be there to help. For now, the two of them will be preparing some questions, and will be there in case any of them choose to go bad. With that, the two head on out of T'rere, and go south.
----
The duo, alongside several scouts, made it out to Nokut, the settlement looking a little worse for wear since when they least saw it. As they walk, Demiurge asks what settlements are nearby, to which he replies that they could've gone anywhere, realistically. East, west, south, there are settlements of varying sizes in either direction. Heck, depending on how many men she brought with her, she might gear towards building up her own small settlement, provided she abandoned any plans to fell T'rere, though they shouldn't rule that possibility out.

They eventually reach the settlement, where the many scoutsmen split up to converse with various members of Nokut. Demiurge and Grant, meanwhile, are tasked with looking into a few particular members, these guys being either valuable members of the society, or being members of the guard. 
*Brada - the mineral worker, takes material and makes it into various supplies. He's a ferret guy, noticeably plumper than many of the villagers. He says that he was just here to provide weapons and armor. He did personally work on her axe, but that's about his only connection with her. Grant asks if she ever talked to him about any places she's been scouting out, to which he replied that, as far as he knew, until T'rere became a threat, she was content with living in isolation.
*Garrik - A younger brother to Amak, and appears to've recently gotten in a scrap. He's also quite plump, far moreso than Amak. Garrik tells the duo that he doesn't want anything to do with any of them. Grant says that this doesn't have to be difficult. They can move along from him, but that just means that they'll question others. Garrik glowers and says that he'd rather they scewer him right here. Realizing they won't get anywhere, they break away from him.
*Lada - An ostrich lady that appears well fed. She's one of the guards that helped to defend Nokut earlier, and Grant seems convinced that someone like her would have some insight on the chief. They ask her what she knows, to which she replies that she refuses to tell them anything. Grant reminds her that they won't be leaving until they get some sort of lead. Lada says she won't help them, no matter what, and no one else will. Grant is can feel her stubbornness, and decides they should move on.

At this, Grant says that they've been going about this the wrong way. The chief's plan was harmful to a few people, so maybe they should seek out a guard that was affected by the limited resources. And with that, they have to listen in on a few casual conversations, before slowly piecing together the story of a guard that wasn't able to put in the work necessary on account of taking care of their family. They got limited food, and got too scared to give too much of it away to their family, so it was either eat himself, or let them eat a smaller portion of the earnings. The family's apparently on its last legs.

Demiurge and Grant head to the individual, a bow-wielding sparrow named '''Bode'''. Grant greets the individual, to which he mutters and shies away. Grant says that he probably knows what they're doing here. Bode says sure, but they're crazy to think that they'll just get anything out of them asking. Grant, however, says that he actually has something that could help him. He raises a brow, before the tiger shows off some meat, the sparrow's eyes widening. Upon seeing how much he's offered, he almost immediately says that '''Chief Deba''' fled to Hullo. Demiurge remarks that that came out fast, to which Grant says that that just shows how much loyalty this living style earns you. 

Either way, he remarks that it's quite ironic that that's where she went. Their original mission would've taken them there before Amak revealed himself. Hullo's not an easy target: it's positioned itself to be heavily fortified, making direct contact difficult. Either way, before they approach it, they'll have to confirm Deba's position: searching anywhere between here and the settlement while others investigate Hullo itself. They must report this to Miza.

;Septmi 25th - Septmi 29th

Miza's been spoken to before, and now everyone's doing there own thing. This is a period of free time while scouts are at work investigating into Deba's location. This is a good time to do sidequests and to raise bonds.

;Septmi 30th

On this morning, the scouts return, and the party sees them going into Miza's hut. The group follows, and finds them reporting to the chief. There, they say that they spotted the Nokut chief within the walls of Hullo. She looks to've worked herself to becoming right hand to Hullo's chief. Miza then remarks that if they can breach the settlement's defenses, then they should be able to take out two birds with one stone. However, she also asks if they were able to identify any other influence the opposing chief may have, to which they reply they weren't able to gather any other information on her.

With that, upon seeing the party, she notes that they must've been watching for a while. She says that if this settlement is claimed, then T'rere will establish a firm foothold in the mainland. From there, it'll only be a matter of time until every other settlement on this landmass will fall in line. However, she also warns that this area will be much harder than anything they dealt with. Even getting in will be hard. Grant assures that they shall take care of the enemies. Demiurge asks what'll become of Deba, to which she replies they will see if she's willing to change her mind, else they'll get rid of her. So now, she suggests that they begin their mission.

;Septmi 30th - Octuar 17th

With this, the group's tasked with heading eastward. Going east of T'rere sends the group on the first leg of their journey, the '''Valley of the Predators'''. This is an area with rolling hills the reach high up, forming almost natural paths between them and onwards. The passage from T'rere leads the group down into the depths between hills, which has a small river leading between either one that the group's able to walk over at frequent shallow points.

This valley has the group proceed through it, the path they're taking eventually leading them up and out, though not before having to deal with scouts akin to that Hullo Hunter from before, them jumping down in an attempt to ambush the party. However, through careful movement, the group should be able to get up and out of the small valley, spying the river source being a waterfall. As they go up, however, their path loops around to the top of the waterfall, from where they can see in the distance a walled off settlement. Manya notes that that must be just what they're after. Grant remarks that it looks heavily fortified, though Demiurge says that they should contend with that when the time calls for it.

However, as they begin their approach, there's a stirring in the water from the waterfall. The group turns, when suddenly, a large gator lunges out from it, him holding a large club that he attempts to slam down on Grant. However, the latter's able to backstep just in time, the rest of the party bringing up their weapons in response. The gator stands up, and says that a lot of these T'rere people have been traveling a little far from home. Derrik says that they've already claimed every other surrounding settlement, this one will fall all the same. The gator, however, simply says that while all of them have been dealing with their worthless war, Hullo's been beefing up their defenses and weaponry. This hammer, for example, can smash many a metal. Hearing that, Manya says that any loser can smash stuff, it takes skill to properly work the material! The gator, however, merely says that as long as it gets rid of nosy little outsiders, it's good enough for him. With that, he goes in for the attack, Vala warning everyone to brace themselves.

With that, and with two eel people jumping out on either side of the gator, them wielding spears, the battle with '''Executor Marak''' begins. Marak himself is fairly hardy, wielding high defenses and dangerous attack power, though he himself is vulnerable to evasive maneuvers/skills that lower hit rate, and magic. Players should also be weary, as Marak has access to reflect magic. What they should also worry about is those eel people, who, on top of being able to attack alongside the gator, are also able to cast revitalizing magic to bring the gator up in case he's knocked down. Find your way to defeat the eels on the same turn, and then take care of the gator. He grunts, forced to take a knee as he struggles to keep himself up, using the shaft of his hammer like a cane.

He says that he can't lose, that he can't go back while a bunch of T'rere people are running free. Derrik asks what he means, to which he replies that the people in Hullo have to earn their keep. If they underperform, that's that much less food. Grant remarks that that sounds just like Deba, doesn't it? Manya says that they figured she was there, but she couldn't have been in there for this long, could she've? To think she'd established this kind of rule already... The group turns to Marak, with Derrik telling him that under T'rere's rule, that rule won't be a thing anymore. Everyone will be fed equally. Marak says that they'll have to go through quite a bit to accomplish that, but if they can, he'll be behind them. Either way, he can't do anything now.
----
The group continues forwards through the valley, before soon approaching the front steps of the large walls of Hullo. They appear to be made of stone, wrapping around in a circular fashion before clinging against the side of the mountain behind. They approach, and find a thick gate out front with a wooden gate shut down in front of it, it seeming several feet thick. Demiurge notes that every other settlement's just had guards out front, but Grant suggests maybe Deba suggested to Hullo to keep its gates closed, at least until they're prepared to take the fight to T'rere. 

So then they'll just have to find some sort of gap in the wall's defenses. Vala then suggests that they should check the wall for any hollow points. With that, they search the border of Hullo, and will eventually uncover a part of the wall that feels less sturdy than the rest. The flamingo approaches, before rearing back a fist, and striking it just right, rendering the object to debris and leaving an opening into what appears to be a small fortress. And unfortunately, this fortress bares a lot of hunters and scouts within, which players will be forced to face as the '''Hullo Horde'''. 

After taking care of the horde, Grant will note that he saw some of the foes flee in the other direction, they're probably alerting the rest of the settlement. Derrik then says that that just means they'll have to be hasty. Push through the settlement and try and find the chief. Hullo's chief takes priority, don't engage Deba yet. With that, the group proceeds through the fortress, and out into the streets of '''Hullo'''. Hullo bears stone buildings and towers, some looking like they're built for housing multiple people like a modern day hotel. It isn't hard to identify what the most important-looking building is, for up against the mountain-side of the settlement appears to be a more square-like building that has many different huntsmen wielding bows and javelins upon it.

Derrik says that the main building looks to be heavily fortified, a straight assault will probably get them killed. Grant then says that they need to find some way to drive out the enemy, and unfortunately, those bad smelling bombs Nokut had can't cover a large enough area. Demiurge ponders himself, before feeling his belly a little. He says that he might have an idea, though they'll have to get to a higher elevation to pull it off. With that, they're tasked with going to either of those towers around, having to maneuver around the various guards in the streets as well as those in the towers. From there, they'll have to go to either the mid-west tower, the south-east tower, or the south-west tower.

Upon reaching the first tower, the group stands on high, Many asking him what he's got planned. Demiurge says that there's a technique he's seen a few Dragons his current size perform, and he's wondering if he can pull it off. He rubs his belly a little more, before craning his head upwards, before snapping it down and belching forth a colorless beam, this beaming down to a portion of the important-looking building. When the beam touches down, a large explosion bellows out from the epicenter, rocking a portion of the building and causing much of it to collapse while also causing others to flee. 

Much of the party is shocked, even Demiurge terrified by what he'd just done. Derrik says that he'd never heard of that kind of power in a Dragon... But Manya says they can't keep using that power. They want to control this place, not utterly destroy it! Demiurge understands, but Grant points out that that one strike appears to've scattered much of the defensive force. Maybe they can make an assault on it now. So, they go down the tower, however their descent becomes interrupted by the appearance of a raven man wielding a crossbow, him flanked by a pair of bull men wielding axes.

The raven says he doesn't know what happened, but this group's come from the source of the attack on their chief's building. Manya then says that if they saw that, then they should know not to mess with them. However, the raven simply replies that he cannot let a foe as dangerous as that continue to live. So, he orders the two bulls to surround them, before aiming, and so the battle with '''Scout Leader Ach''' begins. Ach himself is a fairly low damaging foes, though he relies on applying a chance to deal ailments, not just to his own attacks, but to his axe-men bodyguards. He's a fairly straightforward fight, players should take him down fast so the high damage dealers can't be more harmful, while also utilizing ailments to keep the axe-men at bay. 

After enough, the raven should be overwhelmed, him falling to his knees while those guards are struggling to keep themselves upright. Derrik says that a new future is at hand, that this settlement will face a brand new age of prosperity, especially once all of their technology is submitted to them. Ach says that he'd love to see them try and take care of '''Chief Loug''' and that owl alongside him. Those two are a dangerous pair.

With that, the group's able to progress towards the hut, its defensive numbers significantly reduced thanks to Demiurge's previous attack. Upon reaching the front steps into the building, Manya points out that this is unlike anything they've dealt with. It seems as if they've formed their own small mountain, probably complete with its own series of "tunnels". Vala then says that that means they'll have to be aware of whatever enemies lie behind the oncoming turns and corners. With that, the group progress. And like they feared, the inside of the '''Chief Fortress''' is built almost like a castle, with several hallways insides and needing to traverse stairways and doors to hopefully reach their goal. Many doors are barred from one side, meaning that they'll have to find a way around them to open them. All the while, they'll have to deal with rangers and hardy foes.
----
After a bit of maneuvering, the group reaches a fancy-looking door, it bearing the gilded image of what seems to be a croc. Opening it, the group sees a throne room, it appearing even larger than any they'd seen before. And inside is a horned owl with an axe, and at the throne is a bear man wielding a pair of lances. Grant presumes the bear's Chief Loug, while the owl's Deba. The bear affirms this and stands, where he says that Deba's been a very valuable asset. Now he's gotten his men working hard, but apparently not hard enough. Perhaps they should raise the prices soon to make sure invaders like the party don't arrive. 

Derrik declares that there's no way a life that limits who can live can go on. Grant says that they refuse to let anymore suffer under Deba's flawed ideology. Deba, however, counters that a life that expects everyone to live at once will not last. Why, look at the today, where Miza's enforced devastating punishments onto everyone around so that they can eat themselves. And after that, they'll lose more and more until everyone has nothing. Manya, however, says that she underestimates their efforts. Despite everything she suggests, they'll all come out of this better than whatever Deba could. Vala says that she's felt tension wane after T'rere organized food around here, and even Nokut is getting better. She will see to it that everyone Deba and Loug have harmed will be saved. Demiurge, meanwhile, can say "We'll bring down your reign" or "We will make the world a better place!" With that, Loug says that the time to talk is over, and Deba says that they'll pave the way for the future!

With that, the battle starts proper with '''Chief Loug''' and '''Deba'''. Loug wields lances, and with them can deliver stab attacks, while also wielding a high crit chance on his end. He even has a skill that increases the chances of crit attacks on either side. Be especially weary of his Triple Down skill, a multi-targetting stab skill that beats down each party, especially when crit chances are up. Deba, meanwhile, wields an axe, with which she deals smashing damage, she also wields Cosmic Magic and Wind an Dark Magic, with which she wields the ability to place an Omen, to Confuse, or to Silence the party. Be careful, this isn't an easy fight, but with enough perseverance and defensive action, players should be able to take them down.

With that, chief and co-chief fall to their knees, unable to do even hold their weapons up as they each clatter down to the ground. They pant and pant, and the group approaches, Demiurge leading them as he approaches. He says that he recommends they surrender now. They pant and pant, Loug glancing towards Deba. Loug himself bends down in a deep bow, though Deba herself tries to stand up, using the ehandle of the axe to keep herself up. She says that, despite everything, she refuses to stay down. Demiurge shakes a little himself, and says that she really should stay down. However, she simply hobbles forwards, glaring at them. Demiurge is still shaking, and he steps forwards a little, only for Derrik to stop him.

He says this doesn't have to be his burden, before saying he can turn away. Demiurge gives pause, before thinking. '''If players bonded with Grant''', he says that he'd appreciate that, before turning and walking out, the rest of the party accompanying him as Derrik turns towards Deba. '''If players didn't bond with Grant''', he says that after everything, he needs to take some responsibility, before approaching Deba himself, the owl looking up at him, as he takes up a fist and delivers a final punch to her that swivels her head around and snapping her neck. Either way, things're wrapped up, the party's stepping out, and Loug shambles towards them, asking what'll become of him. Gant says that Miza will decide, and so they press on home.
----
After all of this, Chief Miza learns of the fall of Hullo. With that, she says that she shall personally march onto their territory. She plans to turn this fortified base into the new capital to T'rere. As she arrives, she expects the party to accompany her and keep her safe. The group each nod in affirmation, before they part. However, as they leave, Miza tells Demiurge to stay behind for a brief moment. The rest of the party seems weary, though Demiurge gives a soft sigh, and waves them off. They take a few more steps forwards, before continuing out of the hut.

She says that understands that he's been stressed. These have been hard times for many a people, but it's all necessary to a better future. People will live better in the tomorrow, and it'll be all thanks to their effrots today and yesterday. She assures that things will only get easier from here on. She tells him to take refuge in that. Demiurge says he'll try, before continuing out and on the town.

;Octuar 18th

On this day, Miza and much of her crew are marching into Hullo. Grant's been tasked with staying behind to lead whoever stays in T'rere, while the rest accompany the chief. Several members from all over are coming, from people in Gurah, to people in Hafa, to even people in Nokut. Garrik, Lada, and Sumul in particular are focused on. They move more and more, Hullo's people seeing them step through the front gate, Loug seeming too worried to so much as try to defy them.

They continue forwards, and Miza steps out before the front door of the chief's fortress. There, she stands over the people of Hullo, them waiting with bated breath over what she's going to say. She raises her voice, and declares that in recent years, the people of this world have faced a terrible shortage. The many ferals of the world have been growing scarce, and as such, everyone's been struggling to feed themselves. So, Miza herself has worked to beat some sense into those around. And now, many people have been fed, and the people of the world have grown better. And now, she will extend that grace to the people of Hullo, and with that, move onto every other settlement. 

However, with that, Garrik steps out and approaches, him glaring at Miza and her crew. He says that everything's been suffering under her rule. The party turns towards the younger cat curiously. He says that his big brother talked about the people she's hurt, the people she's dominated... And he talks about how he'll never see his brother again. Miza says that their people would've suffered if Amak were able to get in their way, and then the rest of the world would be made to starve. Garrik, however, says that he doesn't care. He's going to do what Amak wanted to! 

With that, several people, including those focused on before, draw weapons and begin attacking. As they attack and the party tries to repel those strikes, Garrik races forwards, determination on his face. Miza looks among the many attackers, several of Hullo's people fleeing while the party tries to quell the attackers. He soon stands before the chief, having worked himself through the defensive line. As he stands before her, he asks her if she knows what it's like to lose someone that gave you everything. She answers that she has, and says that after she lost them, she's had to work hard to build herself back up. Garrik can do this if he backs away. However, he says he doesn't care about building himself up, he just wants to take her down.

With that, he begins conjuring some powerful magic, his body igniting with a bright light. Heat begins to fill up the general area as Miza draws back. Demiurge can feel the heat on his back, and turns to face the cat. He seems to ponder the magic momentarily, before realizing what Garrik's going for. He tells Miza to get back as he charges towards the cat. Miza appeared to've been reaching for her scimitar in preparation, before drawing back at Demiurge's urging. Suddenly, while spreading his wings, Demiurge soars off of the top of the staircase while tackling the cat, taking him into his arms and tugging him skyward and towards the surrounding wall.

Garrik demands that he let go, saying that he's betraying everyone like this! Demiurge says that he's made his choice. Despite everything she's done, he's seen great stuff coming from her actions. As he flies away, several of the party members look over towards the Dragon curiously as he flies over the wall. Once there, the cat seems to detonate like an explosive, blasting over Demiurge's chest as he's sent falling out of the air. He splats against the ground outside, rainbow-tinted ichor oozing out of him while he lays there.

He groans in pain, a dull voice coming from his lips. He tries to climb up, but can barely move his arms. He says that he feels cold... so cold... Darkness begins creeping in as he can still hear the sounds of conflict from where he fled. And eventually, his consciousness fades, and down he goes, felled. If players have made it here, they'll move onto the [[#Devolution Era|Devolution Era]].
==Devolution Era==
Demiurge groans and shakes around, feeling a slight sense of claustrophobia. It isn't unlike before, him being held in a tight box. He grunts and shudders more and more, before that constraint around him shatters. He groaned and began to flutter his eyes open, finding himself looking up at a moonlit sky. He groaned and climbed up, finding himself in what looked to be the remnants of a hut, which he must've been put in while he slept. That gives him some hope about what happened back then. He looks around more, and finds what looks like the dilapidated remnants of T'rere, it looking just like a ghost town with all of the buildings having aged into crumbling. Demiurge himself appears to be now over 15 feet tall, with wings as wide as his body, muscular limbs, and thicker horns.

As he looks around, he hears that motherly voice from before, the voice asking "Oh, dear Demi... what have you done?" Demiurge raises a brow, before turning. Sure enough, there's the pale dragon herself, Sophia. He asks what happened while he was asleep, to which she replies the state of the world is up to the respective ruler to learn, but she warns that as he slept, terror crept into the world. Demiurge asks what she means, to which she replies that he'll find over there, she says as she points eastward. Demiurge looks ahead, and begins to walk, before turning to face her. He says that he's sure that he did everything right this time, that he did what he needed to. She says that not everyone can see the full scope of what their choices can do. 

She also says that before he goes, she will let him know of one more power. No matter how bountiful a creature's love, everyone needs to learn when it's time to cut their losses and put down a life that's too far gone. So, within each Dragon comes the power to end all life on a planet. Demiurge recoils, saying he doesn't want anything like that. However, she places a hand on his chest, and Pure magic flows into him, and he feels something unlock in him. At that, the player's informed that Demiurge unlocked the Skill "Armageddon". She says that knowing this is not to be feared, but to know he merely has the option. If he ever decides that the world's too much, then this is always at his disposal. With that, she turns and walks away. Demiurge seems ready to follow her, but deep down knows he has a journey to complete himself. So, he turns eastward, where he last remembered Hullo was.
===Early===
After choosing a class for Demiurge, players are allowed to progress forwards, moving eastwards across the now very dead T'rere. They soon reach the valley from before, only to find some bulky guards in some actual armor, either wielding a halberd of their own. They step before Demiurge for a brief moment, before coming to realize who they are. They spread, and one of them tells Demiurge that '''Chief Amma''' would love to see him. Demiurge raises a brow, and just continues forwards, finding the formerly somewhat wild landscape appearing lined with strong guards that seem to be in a uniform stance as he presses forwards.

Eventually, he finds himself before Hullo, though finds that its walls appear taller, and it has even taller buildings. From the ground, he can also notice what looks to be cannons (albeit made of wood) on the tops. He also notices a few guards wielding hollow shafts in one hand and a sack of gunpowder in the other. They let him continue, and he presses on into Hullo proper. Once there, he can see many citizens, each of them looking weak, timid, and small, almost looking almost as if they'd shrunken in their clothing.

Demiurge turns to the main building, which appears to've fixed the wound Demiurge left on it earlier, additionally standing over 3 times as tall as before. Demiurge begins going up the stairs, before spying a few extra gates embedded into the base of the building, them adjacent from either side of the stairs. And before those gates is tons upon tons of bones scattered about haphazardly. Demiurge can't help but shiver, and he keeps on walking, soon reaching the front door. The guards motion him in more, before he arrives at a pair of doors that remind him of when he challenged Loug.

The door opens up, and in he comes, where he sees the all too familiar lemur ally, though this one appears to be holding a lance far longer than he is tall. And behind him, sitting on a throne that looks far too small for the one sitting on it, is a lion man bearing his chest, wearing some royal red pants, and with a red cape wrapped around his shoulders. And at either side of the throne are a pair of lances that seem to match the one the lemur holds. Seeing Demiurge step in, the lion's expression lights up, him saying that he's so thankful to've lived to this day. Demiurge raises a brow, when the lion stands up, and greets himself as '''Chief Amma''', current ruler of the world.

Demiurge asks how he knows about him, to which he replies that word of the Dragon that laid their future for them was made constant history amongst them. Many chiefs of the past honestly felt daunted, feeling unable to measure up to the greatness that is Miza and Demiurge. Amma finds himself getting ahead of himself, and instead asks Demiurge if he's been asleep this whole time. Demiurge replies that he's only waken up today, to which Amma supposes that they have a lot of history to catch up on. Demiurge says that he does wish to now about what's happened, and so the lion stands up and begins walking, offering the Dragon to follow.

The two walk through the inside of the chief's building for a while, them going across various catwalks that lead to one of the exteriors. The lion says that dinner approaches, and he actually wished to talk to Demiurge a little about that. After Demiurge was felled, those that remained were able to take down the opposing forces, and went on to execute them, though not after carefully placing Demiurge into the chief's old hut. After that, they'd move onto other settlements, and extend their hospitality to them as well. Generations passed, and soon after Miza, all would respond to whoever ruled Hullo. And with this, everyone would work to collect food and send what they collected to the various settlements.

Eventually, he was raised to be a chief, and many years ago, he was supposed to deliver food again, but would begin to find some terrifying results. Less and less food began to come back, which was a problem because there were more and more mouths were asking to be fed. The chief asked them to find any and all ferals, from the tallest mountains to the deepest seas. However, they'd find fewer and fewer birds, and fewer and fewer fish. Eventually, the workers were coming back with nothing. Demiurge seems alarmed, and asks if he truly means to say that all ferals have been wiped out. Amma says that as far as they knew, that's the reality. 

As news spread, despair hit the world. Some could eat fruits and vegetables, but that didn't offer many of their people all of the sustenance they needed, especially those that were constantly at work. Soon, he found himself looking out over a world that thought it would see the end. However, he himself stumbled upon an idea, and with it the power to save the world. Demiurge asked how they could recover from something like that, to which Amma replies that he did some reading. Soon, they reach the balcony, overlooking the large realm of Hullo. A gonging noise rings out over the area, and many of the citizens step forwards, approaching the foot of the building, nearing either gate.

Amma says that as far back as Gidere's texts, it's said that the modern mortal grew from a feral, having been fashioned into a form able to govern itself. So, the lion pondered what if they were to strip away that growth. Demiurge feels his nerves quiver, and he turns towards Amma, asking what he means. Amma motions down to the ground, where the gates begin to open up. And then, Demiurge swears he sees ferals coming from the openings, except they're odd. They each appear to have longer limbs than the ferals he's seen, and generally seem thinner. Demiurge looks closer, before his eyes widen in horror upon realizing what he's seeing.

Those crawling out on all fours, those acting like ferals, they're each an animal person! They've been stripped of any clothing, and look to be without any sign of intelligence. Canine people walk like dogs, some with their tongues lulled out past their lips. Some felines people carefully pace around and extend their claws with each step, even if they walk on their knees. So on and so forth, each creature seemed to imitate the kind of creatures people he knew hunted. As he watches, he swears he can see the crowd hold their breath as some of the nearby guards approach a "feral" each. They raise their halberd, before swinging it down, smashing the one before them into a lifeless husk.

Guards would repeat this over and over, before drawing a machete and gliding across their bodies, Demiurge only able to watch as some guards carried chunks of fresh meat out to the citizens, who greedily snatched and gobbled them, while others would travel towards the outside of Hullo, holding sacks of the stuff. Demiurge feels dizzy and has to clasp his head, himself doubling back and having to sit down. He gives his forehead a few smacks, before smacking harder and harder, him telling himself that this is just some kind of nightmare! 

Amma asks what the Dragon means by that. Is he scared of what he sees? It's thanks to this sight before him that the world lives, how can that be nightmarish? Demiurge gets up on shaky legs and says this isn't right, none of this is right. Amma says that he's assured every little one is either a volunteer, or randomly picked. There is no bias out here, only the common cause for everyone to live in this world. Demiurge soon shakes off his initial fear, before standing up and telling the lion that he's sick! Amma seems visibly taken aback at the Dragon's revulsion towards him.

Amma says that he's only done what was necessary for this world, that they live because of his choices here. He asks the Dragon if he can even imagine the despair brought upon this world, and says he'll only have the right to complain about it when he's seen that. Demiurge, however, stands up and declares that he can't let Amma do this. The lion holds his lances up, and says that if he feels that way, then he'll stand between him and the end of the world. Hearing that, the two rush at each other. The lion seems remarkable in his movement, able to block various punches from the Dragon despite the size difference, and seeming to repel him with a few well placed punches. 

The two keep on fighting, and a few guards begin to rush in, though Amma waves to keep them in place. The two keep on fighting, but eventually, the Dragon begins to realize he can't keep up with the chief. He weaves around a strike from the foe, and rushes past. Amma looks back and realizes he's running, and follows. Then, the Dragon extends his wings. He mutters to himself nervously, trying to recall lessons from way back in his old days. He then mutters that there's so much more weight though... Then, he reaches the edge of the balcony, before lifting his wings to yank him up.

He leaps off the edge, and begins to falter. However, a few more flaps of his wings, and he soon begins to adjust himself. Amma, meanwhile, reaches the balcony and looks up, seeing the Dragon fleeing. The many guards are near him, and Amma tells them to get the wall defenses trained on him. They then begin running. Demiurge keeps on flapping, and soon gets over the wall. Meanwhile, the cannons on the top of the wall swivel around and begin aiming. A few blasts sail towards him, but they miss, and Demiurge now readies himself to evade them. He flies forwards more and more, and soon gets far from the walls, while Amma can only watch. He growls solemnly, before turning and going back in his building.
----
Demiurge flies as far as his wings will take. He's been flying southwest, roughly in the direction of Nokut, though he's going further past that. More and more he flies, but he's getting tired. His wings are beginning to flap slower and slower, and soon he lowers, plowing through a few tree trunks. Soon, he's come to a stop with a trail of destruction behind him. He doesn't know where he is, but that concern is far from the forefront of his mind. He can only give a few sorrow-filled chokes, unable to even bring himself to cry as he merely lies down and lets his tired muscles rest. And as he rests, a strange figure appears.

;Octuar 19th

Demiurge rests more and more, before eventually stirring in response to the soft sunlight on his face. He mutters and begins to climb to his knees, before extending his wings. He soon finds them bumping against a few tree trunks. He shakes his head and looks around, realizing he's somewhere unfamiliar. He's confused, but begins to recollect what's happened recently. He sighs, noting that he'd hoped that was just some nightmare. Maybe some of it was at least? 

He then hears the soft voice of a man, greeting him. Demiurge raises a brow and turns to the source, where he sees a stag dressed in a green tunic, a longbow on his shoulder and a quiver mounted on his back. He says he was in the area when he saw a creature larger than anything soaring through the skies. He followed, and upon realizing it was a Dragon of all things, he decided to keep watch. Demiurge climbs up and sits on his backside, before asking where he is. The stag remarks that he doesn't very much know either, he's just supposed to be out and about and hopefully find any signs of ferals. Hearing that, more of Demiurge's memory returns, and he simply hangs his head.

The stag asks if anything's going on, to which Demiurge says that everything's wrong. Hearing that, the stag gives pause, before sighing. He supposes that he must've recently woken up. He says that a lot of people aren't happy nowadays. But there're people like him that believe that something can be pulled from the current despair. That's why people like him are out searching. Demiurge is merely silent, and still sitting back. The stag's clearly upset, though says that maybe he should travel with him for a little while. Maybe with the Dragon in the world it's time for things to look better.

Hearing that, Demiurge does decide he has a duty. He stands up, and says that they should get looking. With that, the stag realizes that he hasn't really explained himself well. He's called '''M'valy''', people like him have a close connection to nature and the power of restoration. He'd fixed up some of the trees that the Dragon flew through, but they're kind of still babies. For now, they should head out of this small section. And like that, players realize they're in the '''Etcher Forest'''.

The duo presses up and out of the short patch of trees Demiurge had been resting in. M'valy seems to think that they should leave the general area, he hasn't really found anything. However, as they press up, they soon find themselves stopped by a cat lady holding one of those hollow tubes Demiurge noticed before. She appears to be some kind of guard. She says she thought he lost them last night, but now she found where this accursed brat had gone. She's been up all night, and says that all Demiurge needs to do is renounce what he's said. 

M'valy seems confused and asks Demiurge what she's talking about. He says that he's refused Amma's means of ruling. He then turns to the cat and tells her pointedly that he will refuse with every fiber of his being. The cat declares that if that's his answer, then she'll have to show Amma the Dragon's corpse. With that, players battle '''Guard Lata''', her wielding something called a "Boomstick", this being a long stick/bamboo shaft that's hollowed out to carry gunpowder and dangerous material, the powder able to explode and send the material out the tube. Fortunately, Demiurge and M'valy together should be able to overwhelm her. She grunts and rears back, pained. She declares that Amma has eyes everywhere. So long as he opposes him, he'll never be safe. And then, she flees.

Hearing that, M'valy says that things're going to get dangerous around the Dragon it sounds. Demiurge says that he doesn't have to follow along if he so wishes, though the stag assures that he's ok with this. Demiurge clearly seems to need some aid around here. For now, they should find somewhere that's remote enough for guards not to follow. He asks if the Dragon's wings are doing ok, to which Demiurge flexes them a little. He says he thinks he can, and the stag asks if he can... He doesn't quite finish. Demiurge, however, simply lowers his body, and the stag climbs on. Demiurge flaps, and takes to the air.

With this, players are now able to go to the air and travel around, using Demiurge to fly around the air. For this specific instance of flying, the stag looks around, before spying what looks like a small village southwards. It seems fairly far from Amma's personal quarters, and fairly small in comparison to the spots the guards are usually around. With that, players fly towards it, able to interact with the location in order to go down to it, the location being marked as '''Ganna Village'''.
----
Demiurge approaches on the village. And as he goes down, several fairly scrawny-looking people can be seen around the edge of the village, in comparison to a strange, buff wolf man that's standing out before the many of them. Demiurge flies down more and more, and sets down near the edge of the village. M'valy climbs off of him, and the two carefully step in, the villagers still shying away while the wolf steps forwards, him carefully holding what looks like a pair of claws one would wield like brass knuckles. 

The villagers each wear some more modern clothes, though appear generally more farm oriented in aesthetic. This wolf wears potato brown pants with a red shirt, and appears sorta like a body builder that's just in the middle of this village. He asks the Dragon what brings the two of them here, especially the Dragon. He imagined that the Dragon would be working with the world's chief. However, Demiurge assures that he wants nothing to do with that man, and M'valy says that right now they're trying to lay low. Hearing that, the wolf seems to ease up, before telling the guards that the new visitors don't appear threatening. A collective sigh can be heard throughout the village, and they begin to step away from where they were frozen.

The wolf introduces himself as '''Gant''', and says that he's been here to protect the village. A rabbit lady nearby leans on him and dreamily remarks that he's been such a great protector. A dog man also leans up and says that things've never been safer before he appeared. Gant tries to wave them off before saying he should go back on patrol. In the meantime, if the two of them are to stay here, they may as well look for someone that's willing to take them. Each house is owned by someone, and Gant himself is already lodging with someone. 

M'valy supposes that that makes sense, and says that they'll look around. Gant nods and begins walking off, though the duo can't help but notice a few villagers giving him a few dreamy looks as he passes. They're tasked with going from house to house, though whenever they approach the first one, Demiurge looks upon the door and realizes there might be a problem, looking down at himself and all. M'valy says he'll take it, and thus whenever players enter a house, M'valy goes in while Demiurge waits by the door and sometimes peers through whatever windows.
*'''Holly''' - a jaguar lady in a humble house. Looking into it, Holly apologizes and says that she could only afford herself a room with one bed. Players are still able to check out the house and get a look over the general storage and comfort options, seeing a small space made to be very calming.
*'''Sue''' - a swan lady in a two story house. She says that she's actually been housing Gant. She's sort of the leader of the village, though that's kind of just a title. Things are sorta already calm and at the point where people do their jobs for the sake of Ganna's continued survival. If anything, Gant's sort of been more of a leader type. The house is fairly well organized with minimal decoration.
*'''Renna''' - a stoat woman that lives in a humble house. She says that she can't exactly lend her house to others. She's kind of... busy at night. She's deliberately vague. The house itself has little decoration and seems fairly standard, though investigating a dresser reveals a... Gant-sized shirt? M'valy isn't able to investigate it for long before Renna pops in to try and hide away the clothing, before offering the stag 50g to not tell anyone about this.
*'''Petunia''' - a skunk woman that lives in a humble house. There, she says she's actually fairly lonely, and is willing to let someone come in. The house is fairly humble, hosting plenty of flowers and, indeed, two bedrooms. There's even a fairly small amount of foliage outback to cover Demiurge.

Upon interacting with Petunia, the story progresses. 

Out in the living room, M'valy sits at a table near a window, Demiurge kneeling near it to get a good look inside. Petunia herself, meanwhile, approaches and looks in. The skunk sits across from M'valy, and says that seeing the two of them, she does have to admit something. She says that if the Dragon is here, then they should be able to do something. M'valy asks her what she means, to which she explains.

She says that Gant's been here a few years now. Shortly afterwards, a strange beasts has appeared in the nearby woods, that news immediately perking M'valy up. She says that it let out such terrible screams and howls, and the many villagers were terrified, all while Gant was out there with the monster. It pops up every full moon, and Gant is always out to tackle it. And as much as they appreciate the gesture, a lot of the villagers worry for him. He first arrived a bloody heap, and though he hasn't had to worry against common bandits, whenever he heads out to battle the Full Moon Monster, they either find him passed out and mutilated, or he hobbles back struggling.

Petunia says that Gant's a powerful, strong, muscular, dreamy, handsome... She trails off for a moment, though M'valy prompts her to continue with a "but...?" She shakes off her momentary daze, and admits that whenever he goes out after the Full Moon Monster, she can never go to sleep. She wants to go out and help, but she doesn't have any of the fighting spirit or training or gear. Plus if Gant come out so damaged... She says that she wants to get strong enough to fight alongside the wolf before the village loses him. M'valy says that they can't really afford to go out too far, what with the forces of Amma's Guard wanting them dead. However, she assures that guards don't travel near ever since Gant appeared, and that gear and such shouldn't be too far from the village.

Hearing all of that, Demiurge supposes that if she's going to house them, then they should at least do this. M'valy agrees, and asks when the next full moon is. She says that word has it the full moon next comes on the 31st, so they should make sure all of their preparation is done by the 30th. With that, the group has a brand new mission in the new era. It may not be directly tackling Amma, but right now, they don't have a lot of options for countering his forces. Maybe the best thing they can do now is gather allies.

;Octuar 19th - Octuar 30th

With this, players need to handle a couple of missions. Petunia says that before she goes out and fights, she needs a proper weapon, and some proper armor. M'valy points out that he hasn't seen any forge nearby, though she says that if they need help, then maybe they can seek out some bandits in the nearby forest. Petunia thinks that she should get something big and hefty for weaponry, and something kinda light for armor, fearing that if she got too big that she'd struggle to move. M'valy supposes that makes sense, and thus they have things to look for.

'''Note:''' at Octuar 20th, Gant will stop by the house to ask the group if they were told about the Full Moon Monster. Demiurge tells him that she made sure to tell them, to which he nods in approval. He says that things'll be dangerous outside of the village, so he recommends everyone stay indoors until either he comes back, or until sunrise, whichever comes first. He walks away, and Petunia says, quietly enough for only the two party members to hear, that he won't have to fight alone anymore.
----
Players head out into the '''Gan Woods''', a small section of woods that's fairly contained. There appear to be a few branches out of the area to the northeast, southeast, and west, though players aren't able to go in either of these directions for now. No, instead they have to travel the field towards quest markers at certain parts, battling various bandits on the way.

Near the northeast trail, players can find a group of bandits near the trail, though they're lying in wait, clearly hoping to ambush someone. M'valy, a person with strong eyes, points them out. The bandits squirm a little, and asks them if they can give them a better chance to hide. Demiurge tells them to come down and either play nice or get beat. A collective sigh is heard from the bandits, and they come out of the trees and bushes. Among them is a raccoon bandit wielding what looks like a large, thick club. M'valy notes that that looks big and hefty.

Demiurge asks the raccoon if he'd be willing to submit that weapon. He looks at it curiously and asks them if they're serious. Demiurge nods, and the thief says that he'd rather not. Can't exactly take extra meats from guards with just his fists. Demiurge blanches and asks if they're seriously out here taking food from people that need it. The raccoon, however, states that they need food too, but ever since they got pegged with crimes, they stopped being seen as people worth giving food. They don't do this, they starve. Demiurge gives pause at that, though M'valy steps forwards and draws his longbow, saying that their past mistakes brought that on themselves.

Seeing a fight's inevitable, the raccoon raises his club, orders the bandits to fight, and thus the fight with '''Eric''' and three additional bandits begins. It's a fairly simple fight, the only real notable part being Eric's ability to deal a hefty amount of damage with his club. However, with little effort, the players should be able to overwhelm Eric, at which the raccoon says this isn't worth it, before running. As he does, he leaves behind the club, to which M'valy says they're one part of the way finished. 

After that, players are prompted to go to the Eastern path, where they'll spy another few bandits in wait. Once there, they see another group of bandits, though notably one of them's wearing some light segments of metal wrapping around them, as opposed to the usual suit of metal and such. Seeing that, M'valy can't help but wonder if that's really practical. The wearer, a frog man, hears them, and lets them know that this stuffs saved his life more than a few times. He doesn't have to deal with the full weight of one of those stuffy suits, he can easily maneuver his arms and legs into the path of an oncoming weapon, and he can still hop away from danger. Hearing that glowing review, M'valy points out that that sounds like something that'd interest Petunia. 

He then asks if they could possibly buy that armor off of him. Hearing that, he seems offended. He declares that it's not for sale, and that he oughta beat the two of them for even suggesting he strip himself of such a genius design. M'valy says that he supposes it can't be helped. With that, the raging frog approaches, and like that, players are forced to fight '''Markus''' and his band of bandits. Again, they aren't too remarkable, save for Markus' evasive ability. Fortunately, players are soon able to beat him, and thus he's forced to flee, though it seems the fighting undid some of the straps to the armor, for a pile of pieces of metal lays before them. They collect it, and the player has gotten armor for Petunia.

;Get Petunia her Gear

After wrapping up those objectives, players are able to return home, where they show off what they got the skunk. She looks over the stuff, and can't help but be excited! She declares that she'll put it all on right away. With that, she hides away in her room for a little bit, and Demiurge and M'valy wait back for a little. They wait, and eventually Petunia returns. She seems to wear her normal purple clothes, though they're hidden behind the plates of metal strapped around parts of her body (calves, biceps, stomach, various sensitive spots), while the club is slung over her shoulder. M'valy asks her how it feels, to which she says she's feeling like a real fighter now. 

Petunia gives the club a few test swings, though has noticeable trouble keeping upright, her struggling to stay upright. Demiurge remarks that she has some training to do, to which she says she knows. They don't have a lot of time, and asks if they'd be willing to let her join along. M'valy says that as long as it's to help a friend, he'd be happy helping her get strong. She cheers, and like that, '''Petunia''' officially joins the party, wielding hefty attack power, some fairly evasive moves, wind magic, and status ailments. 

From there on, players are prompted to either just hang out at the village and/or bond with allies, or spend time going out and letting her do stuff to build up her level, as well as the players. Either way, eventually the time comes.


;Octuar 31st

On this day, there is a noticeable tension among the villagers, each working hard at farming while Petunia herself carefully tends to her weapon. She reminds them that today is the day, the full moon will rise, and Gant will go out, and that will be their chance to stop this monster in its tracks for good. Demiurge nods, and M'valy says that if they can, he'd like to take such a "creature" alive, it could prove useful for the future. Petunia says as long as it's not threatening Gant or the village, she's fine.

Either way, evening comes, and Gant's making rounds around the village to tell everyone it's time to stay indoors. As he does, Petunia races up to ask if she can come. However, the wolf says that as much as he appreciates the offer, it's too dangerous for any of them. He kindly requests that they stay here and make sure not to come out until either he comes back, or until sunshine. Petunia tries to argue, but Gant says this is a very dangerous creature, and it'd just kill him if anything were to happen to anyone of Ganna. Petunia sighs and says she understands, and the wolf escorts her home. 

She watches as the wolf goes off in the distance, before saying that if he won't let her join, then she'll just insert herself. She asks the party to come, and says they have to follow Gant, fast! M'valy agrees, fearing that this'd be their only chance to get a feral, and Demiurge follows along. They're brought out to Gan woods, where Petunia says she saw him head towards the southeast trail. They race there, but at the entrance to the trail forwards, M'valy warns that there's a foul air in the trees. Petunia briefly apologizes, though M'valy clarifies. He says it seems as if the nature itself is trying to warn them, though Petunia says that that means they need to be beside Gant even more! M'valy says they should only progress if they think their ready. And after some preparations and confirming on the player's part, they go south.
----
The group steps south onto part of a trail to elsewhere, not that the group knows it outright. As they travel, they can hear the slight jangle of metal nearby. Petunia wonders if that's Gant preparing, to which M'valy says they should be fast. They rush to the scene, going into a patch of trees near the trail. They rush, but begin to slow down when they see what's happening. Among the many trees, the muscular wolf has chains wrapped around him and a tree behind him. He appears to be in the middle of fastening a set of chains to himself, when he spies the group, looking on in confusion. 

Seeing them, Gant looks on in alarm and asks them what they're doing here. Don't they know a terrible monster is about to come out. The group's still confused about what he's doing, though Petunia, with a shaky breath, says that she didn't want Gant to face the monster alone. She wanted to come help, but... she asks him what's going on. Gant seems to struggle with his words, to the point of sweating. With a shaky voice, he insists that this is part of the process, the beast likes to play with its food. Now, he demands they go home.

However, Petunia says that no matter how much he begs, she won't leave him alone. He's done so much for their village already, and she refuses to let him face this thing alone. Now, she begs him to let her and her allies aid him! Gant pants, and begins grunting, now grasping at his head. He's quivering and sweating a storm, and he begs them to leave, now! Petunia, however, though upset, still stands tall. He's grasping at his head and now beginning to writhe side to side, and he keeps on begging them to leave, repeating himself over and over as he keeps on adjusting his grip on his head. 

The moonlight grows more and more, shining more on the patch of woods. And as it does, Gant seems to shy away, as if trying to melt into the tree trunk behind him. He keeps on repeating, getting more and more desperate with his pleading, and though the party's uncomfortable and falters a little, they still ultimately stand tall. The moonlight soon shines on the tree trunk, and despite himself, he forcibly cranes his head upwards. His eyes widen as he looks upon the full moon, and his pleading halts, instead replaced by an animalistic growl as he writhes about in the grip of the chains. 

He lurches forwards as much as the chains allow, and he keeps on shaking around. He suddenly barks out a snarl and writhes more, the snarl growing into a growl, before he cranes his head upwards and bellows out an animalistic yet terrified scream. Hearing that, Petunia's eyes widen, and she can only remark "That scream..." The wolf guard's demeanor changes from the relaxed yet serious guard from way back, into something from a nightmare. He snarls at the group and keeps on struggling against the chains, his struggles eventually making them break while they leave marks on him and tear his clothes a little. And once freed, he slams down on all fours, as if mimicking a feral. 

The group's each backing up and the beast stalks towards them, letting out hungry pants. Demiurge remarks that he's moving just like a feral, and Petunia says that he's not himself... She says that if they leave him like this, he's going to do something he'll really regret. M'valy says that they better quell this man fast, and he owes them an explanation back in Ganna. Demiurge warns that he's coming, and with a lunge at the group, the fight with the '''Full Moon Monster''' happens.

The Full Moon Monster is not a foe to be taken likely, even if you have advantages in numbers. His defenses are low, but he has high attack power, the ability to hit every party member with a certain skill, and access to high level Dark and Cosmic magic, which means a chance to Silence and a chance to Omen. Fortunately, if players are able to weaken his damage and make him more likely to miss, they'll be able to defeat him. The final blow is struck, and the wolf gives a few more pants. He takes a few slow steps for the group, before shutting his eyes and flopping down, all the fight in him lost. 

Each party member pockets their weapon while Petunia rushes up to him, before leaning down and planting an ear to his chest, at which she says that he's alive. M'valy says, almost disappointed, that it didn't turn out to be a feral after all. Demiurge asks if this's happened before, but M'valy says that he's never seen someone able to go from normal to feral like that. There's been the odd whisper, but only a whisper. Petunia, meanwhile, is propping the wolf man on her back, heaving with effort as she has him almost piggy back her. 

She says that they need to get him at her bed before the rest of the village wakes up and finds out something's weird with him. M'valy says that that makes sense, and they'll be careful. With that, the party rushes northwards.

;Novi 1st

After a quick cut, the party's back in Petunia's house, Demiurge peering in through a window while Gant's laying on Petunia's bed. Said bed appears too small for him, and M'valy, meanwhile, is using his restorative magic to suture his wounds. As he does, Petunia can't help but look over his body. There's a pregnant silence, though the skunk seems to break it, remarking that this probably isn't going to leave a great impression of her on him. M'valy says that he probably has more important things to worry about. Petunia, while rubbing her shoulder, supposes he does.

M'valy soon stops, and says that the wolf'll survive. In fact, they can probably rouse him awake. Demiurge says that now they can find out about what that was, though M'valy's quick to say they should be gentle. He's still gone through a lot. Petunia gently holds his shoulder and wiggles it a little, herself blushing as she grasps him. After a bit, the wolf mutters and begins to climb up, though he's slow in his movement. He wakes up, and sees the people around him. He goes to rub his eyes and asks what happened, before noticing his torn up clothes. Everything seems to come back to him, and he shies away, trying to hide against the head of the bed. However, Petunia simply grasps his shoulder comfortingly, and tells him everything's ok, nothing happened last night. Gant's slow to ask if she's sure, to which she nods.

Demiurge then says that despite all of that, they need to ask. M'valy says that it's not normal what happened to Gant. So, he wishes to know what was the meaning of that transformation? Gant supposes that he does owe them that much. He sits up but is hunched over, clearly upset by his body language. He says that it happened many years ago, back in Hullo...
----
He explains that back in Hullo, he was a guard there, meant to keep the peace and occasionally go out to get food for the populous. However, eventually they were failing to gather food for the people. After a while, Chief Amma had decided to start his experiments, he would set up random selections for those that go through de-evolution. Gant had family, so to keep them safe, he decided to offer himself up. This led to a long, long time of trials to try and turn him into a feral. Hypnosis, bashes to the head, some kind of sleep reverse-education... Despite their efforts, he wasn't turning, as well as a few others that were chosen for experiments.

The workers were clearly being frustrated, Amma's second in command, the lemur '''Gasha''', especially so. However, during his experimentation, the full moon began to rear. He remembered looking upon it, some instinct inside ordering him to. And then, he blacked out. He woke up hours later, registering the green grass beneath him, and an awful taste in his mouth. He remembered struggling to get up, and slowly registering the mind-numbing pain going through him. He was then aware of the numerous wounds on him, from cuts and stabs around his body, to arrows, pieces of rock, and javelins piercing his hide. He remembered being unable to feel his hands and feet as he tried to follow the trail, unsure of which way it went. 

He eventually found the village and Ganna, and when he was several feet from the entrance, he felt all the drive in him fade, and he collapsed. He later awoke to Sue and several other Ganna people nursing him to health. He didn't know where exactly he was, and, at the time, a part of him feared that he'd done something really bad in Hullo, so he wasn't too certain about going back. Plus, he had a debt to Ganna for saving him. So, he spent a long time aiding them. He built up their houses, he staved off bandits, and they'd give him housing, veggies and fruit, and clothes.

During one day way later, he was further up the trail away from Ganna, when he noticed what he thought were normal people walking down the trail when some bandits approached. He rushed in to beat them away, when all of a sudden, mid-fight, a sleeping spell was cast on him, and he fell. He woke up, and found himself tied to a tree in rope. Before him were those citizens from before, except they were now dressed up like Hullo guards. It seemed that they'd laid a trap for him.

They explained that they were away when the attack happened, but they were told that on the full moon, several early experiments fled from the capital and left behind a trail of corpses, from guard to commoner, rendered mere chunks in their stomach. And among those were Gant himself, a creature called back home the Big Bad Wolf. Many a bandit had talked about a stranger in these parts that happened to match the description of said experiment. So, they waited until now to capture him. Gant asked why, to which they explained.

The experiments weren't exactly a success, but clearly there exist some stimuli to bring the feral out. And among those stimuli is the full moon. They aren't allowed to do anything obscene to an intelligent creature, but once that moon shines down, he won't be intelligent. They told him that he should be still, for in mere minutes, he'll be stricken down, and his body will be put to good use for the staving commoner. Gant remembered he struggled against the bindings, but the more they spoke, the more a part of him felt like he needed to go through with that. He did volunteer to help people, but instead, he brought on destruction and ran, and now he'd been hiding away in Ganna. He remembered thinking that he should do something better with himself. Then, the full moon rose, and he blacked out...

The next morning, he woke in tattered clothes, the awful taste in his mouth again. And around him were the barely recognizable piles of those guards that'd threatened to butcher him. He groaned and fell down again, unconscious. He'd later wake up finding himself in Sue's bed. Several of the villagers looked over him worried, and in a moment, his previous despair began to giveway, and instead he realized he still owed them, especially as they tended to him now. Shortly after, they asked what happened, and not wanting to expose himself as a monster to them, he spun the tale of the Full Moon Monster. And since then, whenever the full moon came, he'd retreat to the woods to bind himself and keep himself from going feral in Ganna. He's managed to keep hidden for a few years since, until last night.
----
Now, a villager followed him out, and he could've struck them down. He gets sullen and goes to bury his face into his knees. Petunia, however, simply stands beside him and tries to hug across his shoulders. She assures him that she's made sure to build herself up so that she could stand before the beast. The three of them were able to repel that creature once, and they can do it again. Gant's faced this creature all alone all these years, and he's been hurting all the while. That's why she'll alleviate the burden for him. 

Gant seems to ease up, and he gives a sigh. He says that he ust needs to lay down a little. Meanwhile, the other two seem willing to follow. Demiurge says that a lot of people need to pay for this, and M'valy says that it won't mean anything if there isn't any feral to go back to. Their lead here's been exhausted, so they'll have to head elsewhere soon. Demiurge then asks how they'll get Petunia and Gant out of here. Petunia wants to stay by Gant's size, and the wolf seems devoted to keeping this place safe. M'valy holds his chin, and remarks that that may be a puzzle...
===Midway===
After this, Demiurge and M'valy are both out front. M'valy says that, considering how well Petunia's fought alongside them, he's quite certain that they should be useful in their upcoming journey. And if they can convince Gant to join, then that'd be even better. Demiurge asked how they can do that, to which M'valy said that Petunia was willing to change for his sake. Maybe they can convince the others to act that way too? Demiurge supposes that it'd only be fair. They've had him here for a few years now apparently. With that, M'valy supposes their next mission is decided, find a way to convince the people of Ganna to take arms. 
----
Next, the group's tasked with going house to house to talk to various people about possibly raising arms. Each villager wonders how Gant is doing, and they're told he's alright, before M'valy asks them about fighting themselves.  However, plenty of them are apprehensive. They saw the kind of wounds Gant came home with, and they're sure he only lived because he's built like a house. They don't have that luxury. M'valy, however, will frequently point out how much Gant's done for them and how much he deserves some time to himself. Each villager still seems antsy, though do appear guilty. 

They keep on, though don't find much result. After a bit, M'valy decides that they aren't getting anywhere like this. They need something proper to convince them. Demiurge then points out that maybe Petunia could show them that they can change? M'valy strokes his chin, and figures that that's not bad. She appeared to be just a flower girl before, and now she stands having triumphed over the Full Moon Monster. If they're going to do anything about that, then they'd better gather everyone in one place. So, they head into the house, where Gant is still at, sitting upon what appear to be the remnants of a chair at the dining room table. He's rather bashful while Petunia assures him it's ok.

Seeing M'valy enter, and seeing Demiurge at the window, Gant asks where they've been. M'valy explains that they've been trying to talk the rest of the villagers into taking a stance themselves. Hearing that, Gant seems more flustered and gets on his feet, asking them why they're trying to make them do that. Demiurge says that, truthfully, they can't leave him to do all the work here himself. Hearing that, Petunia seems to perk up, and remarks that that was, at least, part of why she reached out to the adventurers. Gant still says that he can't afford to let the people of Ganna get themselves into danger, though M'valy assures that Petunia herself is quite powerful, and the rest of the villagers could certainly take a que from her.

Still, Gant can't allow them to get in danger themselves. They've done too much for him, and if anything were to happen to them... Petunia, however, insists that they could learn a thing or two about independence. Besides, she's here better because she wanted to make that change. Gant slowly realizes he's kind of outvoted. He groans, but says that he'll have to watch their training closely. Demiurge and M'valy both nod in understanding. Gant says that he's still resting himself, so he'll have to retire for the night before gathering them tomorrow. 

With that, the group each turns in, Petunia leading Gant to her bedroom while M'valy's getting ready to go to his own bed. He asks Petunia to come back real quick, and after leading the wolf, she comes back. Demiurge asks where they should go when they move on from here, to which the skunk asks in alarm if they're really leaving. M'valy says that he and the Dragon has their own mission, to find any remaining ferals. If they find them, then they might be able to mount an offense against Chief Amma. Petunia gives pause, before remarking that that guy was behind whatever happened to Gant. If that's the case, then she'd love to try and help them. 

She remarks that the old stories say a lot of ferals were isolated in the mountains back in Chief Miza's times, so maybe they can find something there? The southern trail can take them to the mountains. M'valy says that that sounds like a plan, and also says that if they can bring Gant along, that'd be even better. Petunia then asks if that's really why they're doing this, to which the deer replies that he deserves closure, and deserves the chance to grow beyond here. He's still hurting, and he's not growing so long as he's cooped up in this village. Petunia then seems a bit guilty, wondering if they've just been hurting him keeping him here. M'valy says that no one here is to blame, but it's time to move on. Either way, it's getting late. They'll prepare the village, and they'll head south.

;Novi 2nd

On this morning, Gant makes it up to his feet and begins heading out, stepping out the door. As he does, a few of the villagers notice him leaving Petunia's house, before blushing and seeming to whisper some gossip between each other, before scurrying away as the wolf walks up the trail and into the rest of the village. As he does, he goes around house to house, saying he wants everyone to meet up out front, he plans on making an announcement. 

And so, after a bit of that, Petunia herself steps out while in her battle equipment, M'valy and Demiurge following behind. They're now in the middle of the village, the party standing behind Gant as the villagers group up in front of him. There's a mutter amongst each of them, before Gant raises a hand, hoping to get their attention. They paused and turned to face him. Gant explains that, as they know, the Full Moon came, battle came. However, in that battle, none other than Petunia and her friends were able to repel the beast and he was returned and nursed to health. 

As such, seeing her active and fighting, he's decided that for the goodness of the village, the rest must learn self defense. The many villagers seem uncertain, and eventually Sue speaks up and says that they've only survived because they've had someone as strong as Gant among them. Gant rubs the back of his head nervously, and says that he knows that they can be just as strong. Renna says that Gant's just so strong and powerful and so on, and even he couldn't handle a straight fight with the Full Moon Monster. How could they hope to repel it next full moon? At that, the party each turns towards Gant, who seems to connect the dots.

He sighs, before saying that, for a long time now, he hasn't been honest. He begins talking, saying that the Full Moon Monster only stays around where he is. There seems to be a gasp among the group, before Sue asks what he means. Petunia whispers to him, saying that he doesn't have to admit if he doesn't want, but he takes a deep breath and shuffles in place. He says that he was the monster itself, and only came out at the full moon. There's another gasp, and he explains that he hadn't realized what he was until the full moon after he arrived. Still, he says that doesn't excuse him from bringing destruction on this land, but seeing someone like Petunia be able to stop him when he got into a rage, he has confidence that the rest of the village would be able to defend themselves, and only then he'd be confident bringing the monster away. 

There's some definite discomfort among the current crowd. They're clearly conflicted, realizing that Gant's departing would bring a horrible monster away from here, but ultimately still deeply caring for him. Sue eventually steps forwards, and says that if it'd make Gant more comfortable, then she'll train. With her, a domino effect occurs in which each creature steps forwards, now spurred on by her. More and more seem willing, and Petunia declares that they'll be training for a while.

And after that, Petunia's started her work, while Gant steps away from the lot of them, leaving him with Demiurge and M'valy. M'valy says that he's grateful for him choosing them. Gant says, however, that he'd still be dangerous. He's only more confident with them cause they already exchanged blows. Either way, the stag extends a hand, and Gant takes it, shaking. With that, '''Gant''' has joined the party. Demiurge then says that while Petunia's doing things, they should scout out the southern path. He thinks he can fly them to it, but may as well keep an eye out for anything in between here and there. The two allies nod in agreement. 

;Novi 2nd - Novi 6th

During this period, Petunia will be unavailable for this portion of the game, and instead players get to experience a bit of Gant's general style. South of Ganna is the '''Holix Trail''', a clearing that leaves the tree cover, and begins to go upwards, the upper portion of the trail having bits of snow on it. Between here and the other end of Holix are various bandits and guards, as well as the occasional item hidden. Additionally, during this period, players can fly and visit a few other nearby settlements.
*'''Nokut''' - Or at least what's left. Arriving at the area south of the mountain range reveals a striking lack of any of Nokut's structure, save for several stacks of stones provided in memorial.
*'''Hafa''' - Hafa's still a lake-side town, and has guards in it (them being hostile towards Demiurge) as well as villagers that try to hide. There are signs of fishing equipment, though some of it seems hardly used.
*'''Gurah''' - Another dilapidated village. There is the occasional guard that wanders through here, though it seems the general populous has migrated to Hullo.

Any attempts at touching down upon the mountains at the end of Holix Trail leads to Demiurge saying "Petunia's still busy, we should wait before going in here".

;Novi 7th

On this day, the party wakes up, Petunia and other allies leaving her house while Gant exits Sue's house. They step out into the field, and look around at the various villagers. Though there're a couple that don't appear any different, some wield bows, some wield bows, some wield spears, and some wield armor. They appear to be taking a poise similar to Gant as they march around, prepared for combat. Gant tells Petunia that they're looking really well prepared, and thanks the skunk for what she's done. She blushes and gently wrings her tail. 

Either way, the group begins to set out, and as they do, the many villagers spy them walking. A few approach Gant, Sue included. Before the party leaves outright, Sue tells Gant that if he ever feels lonely, he's free to come here. Just mind the phases of the moon. Gant seems to perk up at that, and nods. He says that this won't be forever, and the many villagers wave him off. He waves himself, and so the group heads off, Petunia clinging to the wolf's side while the rest are out front, M'valy saying that as much of a detour as this has been, they at least have some allies out of it.
----
Next, players are prompted to either travel to, or fly to, the other end of Holix Trail. Players are able to enter the region of the '''Holix Mountains'''. This is a range of mountains, boasting several layers of snow throughout, alongside a very vague trail, though it appears to've faded to time. Traversing the mountains is a bit more treacherous than at the Mountain Range in T'rere, and Demiurge will find he can't fly too high else face the biting, chilling winds of the skies above.

They're forced to come down on the ground and try to stick to the trail. However, when they touch down, they find a small group of Amma guards, them joined by the cat lady from way before, Lata. Demiurge and M'valy are surprised to see her, and the cat lady spied them, before glowering. Petunia asks if they know that lady, and M'valy said that they had to fight this guy a while ago. Lata then says that dad, before correcting herself to say that Chief Amma's been real uneasy when he learned the Dragon's vanished to the wilds, and the guards've been out and busy for a while now. 

Gant asks just what the guards were doing, and the guards beside Lata say that while the usual guys are delivering meat, small groups are delegated to trying to eliminate Demiurge. And while they're busy, food lines are buffeted and people are getting less material than they need. So, if he knows what's good for the people, Demiurge will submit to them now! Demiurg then says that that man doesn't know what's right. He and his group are going to bring back the ferals and tear down this terrible system he's put up! Lata then says that if they insist on denying their way of life, then they won't show mercy. 

With that, players are forced to fight '''Lata and allies'''. Lata herself wields abilities similar to before, and appears to be the forefront of damage. The allies alongside her wield buffing, debuffing, and ailment abilities, and seem able to use that to make the players' ability to damage Lata harder than before. As such, players are encouraged to take care of her allies before obliterating Lata. Eventually, she's overwhelmed, and they're forced to retreat. Gant then says that they're probably going to alert Amma, which means more guards'll probably fill these mountains. Petunia says that in that case, they should head out real quick and make sure they scour as much of this mountain as possible, before it's teeming with enemies.

;Novi 7th - Novi 21st

With this, players are thus forced to go through the whole of Holix Mountains in hopes of finding any signs of ferals.

The current path leads them through whatever vague-ness there is to the path, eventually forced to utilize their athletic ability or M'valy using careful shots to nock down some debris to create a passage for them to go through. As they move, they'll have to encounter more bandits, as well as small groups of guards. They progress more and more, before eventually arriving at some more flat plains that they can walk across. 

As they progress, Gant remarks that there's an awful lot of ground to cover, and so far, no sign of any ferals. Not a scent, not a footprint, nothing. M'valy says that they have to keep looking, and Petunia says, albeit timidly, that he's only said that since they got here. Demiurge says that M'valy's right, they can't just stop looking. However, before he can talk more, M'valy ends up stepping on something, at which the ground beneath him gives way, revealing the snow to've been covering up a pit! The group peers over in alarm, before spying the stag with a large spike through either leg. They each gasp in alarm, though M'valy, through heavy breaths, assures that he can heal this. He just needs to get out, though the slightest movement on his part leads to a pained howl coming from him. 

And while he's pained, the snow around shifts, revealing people hidden in the snow, wearing white cloaks and with white-dyed fur. They each draw weaponry and begin to approach the pit, though the remaining party members decide to draw their weapons and try to group up. The foes near, and say that they're outmatched. That man said he has restoration magic, and in a moment, they'll be incapacitated. The rest of them stand no chance without that kind of magic. The group winces in worry, though Petunia, with shaky breath, assures that they can beat them. She glances towards Gant, who doesn't look too certain. The bandits give pause, before saying that they can let them go, if they simply give up the stag. Petunia tightens her grip, though again turns towards Gant. The wolf says that they can't just give him up. 

The bandits are once again at an impasse, and then they say that if they wish, then they can provide food in exchange for them just leaving. Petunia seems to perk up at that, while Demiurge scowls. Gant, however, motions Demiurge towards him, at which he says that if they do this, then they'll be led to their base, where they can do something about M'valy. At that, the Dragon, though hesitantly, agrees. With that, the party sheathes their weapons, and the bandits approach, before pulling the stag, now barely conscious, out of the pit.
----
After that, they're led into a cavern deeper into the plains, the group leading them through and avoiding any other traps. They reach the entrance with the stag in tow, and the group are treated to an interior lined with torches only deeper inside, and some pelts strewn around. They walk more and more, before stepping into a network of tunnels with more of those guys in white, one in particular being an arctic fox with her hood down. At the far end of the tunnel is a guy with a thick white coat, and a necklace of bones around them. This person appears to be a brawny snow leopard man. He greets the travelers, introducing himself as '''M'ava''' of the Holix mountains.

Demiurge asks what's happened up here, to which he replies that there used to be a village out here that he ruled over. Years ago it was a fair town that felt invincible, able to weather any weather. However, the great famine came, and much of them would starve to death, rendering what's left of it a mere graveyard. Amma's people couldn't make their rounds fast enough, so people were dropping more and more. However, he was able to provide one alternative to keep their people alive, those that had the strength for it. Gant asks exactly what he means. He explains that Amma limits their food to those that lose their intelligence. And as he looked over one of the corpses, he remembered thinking that if mind alone was what the separating factor was between man and feral, then is the body just as consumable? Each party member's eyes widen, and Petunia asks that he surely can't mean-!

M'ava tells them to fear it all they want, but their experiments proved fruitful. Now their people are thriving when once they would've died. And now, they're free to provide shelter to those that see reason. Demiurge grits his teeth and assumes a more threatening stance, though the guards seem to tense up. M'ava sniffs the air a little, before looking towards Gant, muttering in sort of content to himself. The wolf can't help but shudder and draws away a little. The snow leopard then orders the guards to bring the new prey before them. 

The guards tug M'valy ahead, and the party tries to go to catch them, only for other guards to cut them off by extending spears. The stag is tossed at the foe's feet, the latter grabbing him by the shoulder and hoisting him up. He struggles in his grip, though he's still bleeding out. M'ava raises an arm, and water magic coils up his fist before forming into a knife-like structure. He's about to strike, though the arctic fox speaks up. The leader turns to her curiously, and she announces that those they promised food still seem uncertain. She says that this won't convince them, and as such seeks to, herself, teach them. M'ava supposes that makes sense, and those releases M'valy. The arctic fox then picks him up, and begins heading down one of the tunnels, the guards escorting them down. 
----
Now the group's lead into a remote section of the tunnel, the arctic fox in white laying the stag out on a table while the other party members are there. Demiurge seems ready for an attack, though Gant says that if they try anything, they're liable to be struck down by the rest. The arctic fox looks over the felled archer, before utilizing some form of magic, her life force flowing from her and into him, restoring his legs. The party's confused, and the arctic fox says that she agrees, this is all awful. 

She introduces herself as '''Dollim''', and says that she doesn't want anything to do with this, but this was all she could do to survive. At that, Petunia asks why doesn't she leave. However, she says that if she leaves, then she'd be likely to be struck down by any of the bandits. And if not them, then she'd be seen as a criminal in the rest of the world and thus would be killed herself. She says that if the circumstances were different, she would've left the moment M'ava brought the idea up, but he said it in a period where they were all suffering. To go far would be suicide. She can only imagine several of them are in the same boat as her. But as long as M'ava's there giving orders and as long as they have no other leader, they won't be going anywhere.

Petunia says that they'd love to get out, though Demiurge decides to speak up. He says that he himself is being hunted by the guards, and shortly, the guards will probably be on this mountain. At that, Dollim says that if their group isn't let out soon, then they'll all be killed! Demiurge seems repentant, and Gant says that they'll work towards eliminating M'ava's influence. M'valy then says that if they get them out of here, then can they help their search for ferals. Dollim says that if they can find ferals, then they can put an end to the darkness their people have been put under. The arctic fox says that she herself will be more than willing to help the group, she's fairly low profile so she can come and go without much worry. With that, the party gains brand new party member, '''Dollim'''.

M'valy's grateful that she sees reason, but he asks how they'll get out. He's expected to be dead by now. Dollim then says that she knows the way out, she offers to direct them. And so, they move, traversing the tunnels before eventually reaching a way out onto the mountain. And as they run, someone demands they halt. They turn, and see a pair of ibises in clothing akin to the rest of the bandits. One of them asks what she's doing with the guests and the game. Dollim begins to stutter to try and give a lie, insiting that they're running, though one of the duos are quick to point out that M'valy stopped in time with her. There's more stuttering, before Dollim turns and points out that if they don't move fast, they'll have the rest of Holix on their tail! With that, she suddenly draws a pair of sickles, before lunging at the duo, either running to try and assist her. And now, players are forced to fight '''Holix Hunters'''.

During this, players get introduced to Dollim's general ability, wielding restorative magic (at the expense of her own life, akin to Osrus), the ability to restore her own health with normal attacks, as well as the ability to damage enemies and split the combined damage total among allies to heal them. With that, both ibises are down, the party panting. Dollim, meanwhile, approaches the two. She takes up her sickles, and raises them, ready to slash their throats. However, Demiurge comes in to grab either hand and stop her. She struggles, and tells him that if she doesn't do this, they'll report her! However, Demiurge counters saying that they can face judgement after they're no longer under a bad man's thumb. If she's scared about returning, then she can stay with them. 

She gives pause, though asks if they'd really have her. M'valy says that they'll be weary of her methods, but they trust her to see her vision through to the end. An ideology like this cannot keep on existing. She nods in approval, and says that they'll be allowed to live. Either way, on the day this is performed, M'valy says that the day's been eventful, and they should retreat to keep themselves safe. With that, the player's forced out of the dungeon.
----
While outside, M'valy points out that those guys don't seem to have any sign of ferals. It seems their initial quest is bust, but if they can gather these guys, then maybe their efforts will be better. Dollim nods assuringly, saying that she will talk them into it. But first, they need to get at M'ava. He's surrounded by lots of bad grunts, a straight assault may very well be suicide. Gant says that guards have various plans for smoking out foes, and he supposes their best bet is to thin out their numbers and keep the Holix guys restrained before they can breach M'ava's defenses. Petunia says that that sounds like a really good plan, and Demiurge says that he supposes their best bet is to go around to the various entrances to attract the bad guys, then strike M'ava.

With that, the player's goal now shifts to going to certain entrances in the general location. This involves wandering around the snowy planes in order to try and find a cavern. And upon finding, players will be tasked with heading in, where they encounter a small group of enemies that they'll have to defeat, before drawing out a Horde of Holix Warriors, and imprisoning each of them. After taking care of enough of them, players are thus able to go through the main entrance, the one players went through before, and challenge M'ava himself.
----
With this, players press forwards, progressing through the insides of the Holix cave. They press forwards and forwards, before arriving at the chamber with the snow leopard in it. He seems alarmed at the current state of his quarters. Seeing the oncoming group, he particularly notices one of his own have turned. He asks what the meaning of this is, to which Dollim replies that he's kept them cooped up for too long and playing his tune the whole while. He's a mad man and he needs to pay for what he practices. However, he counters that this group lives because of him. Besides, he can smell such a "disgusting" practice among the party. Gant shudders and shies away, though Petunia's quick to jump in, saying that he hasn't done it willingly, and that he's always hated it!

Dollim then says that people are scared, and M'ava knew that. He knew they wouldn't be able to defy his leadership in those circumstances, and now they're stuck. What's more, the world chief's guards are going to storm this place, and as soon as they find them, they're all dead. M'ava says that if these feckless scum hadn't infiltrated, then they'd have all opportunity to repel an invasion! This is all on their hands! Dollim tells him that she refuses to give him anymore support! Demiurge says that they won't allow another terrible leadership to rise in this world! M'ava growls, before standing up and gripping a band of rosaries in his hand. He says that if Holix is to die, he'll make sure its murderers are dealt justice. With that, he lunges at the group, and players are forced to fight the '''Cannibal Chief'''.

The Cannibal Chief fight can be considered a bit of a war of attrition. M'ava himself has an attack that allows him to drain HP from a target, as well as water-based magic, which also includes the ability to freeze foes, which also means he can deal bonus damage if he strikes them when they're frozen. However, through tough action on the party of the party, they should be able to overwhelm the cannibal, and beat him. 

He grunts and collapses to his knees, struggling to keep himself up on his knees. He pants and pants, saying that he was doing everything right. He did everything he did for the people of Holix. He tries to talk more, only for Dollim to shove her sickle up close to his  throat. He gulps nervously and looks up, the other party lingering near. Dollim glowers at the foe, before saying he can tell the Dragons how right he is. Then, she swipes to the side, slitting his throat. He groans and falls over to the side, the life leaking out of him.

The party, sans Demiurge surprisingly, can't help but feel a little disgusted. They each shy away, when Dollim turns to the groups. She says that now's as good a time as any for them to attract the rest of Holix. Demiurge nods in understanding, and says that they should get off the mountain very soon. With that, the mission is over.

;Novi 22nd

On this day, the group approaches the Holix Hideout, Dollim there at the entrance awaiting them. She greets them, and says that she's talked to a few. Gant asks how many are turning, to which the fox explains that many seem willing to move on. There aren't a lot that're willing to come alongside them, but many don't want to stay on these mountains much longer. Demiurge says that it's time for them to move asap. 

With that, they go in, and carefully release the many members of Holix. And then, they each rush down the mountain, just in time for many guards to begin coming down. Gant begins to lead, saying that he knows which way to go to get opposite of Hullo. They run more and more, and the guards each come upon the mountain. It cuts to later, where the cat, Lata, can be seen leading the many guards in hopes that they can bring some results. However, more and more they can't find anything. Lata scowls, remarking that at this rate, the chief will only get even angrier. She sighs, and says that the guards haven't been the same ever since that Dragon appeared. Then why...?
===Penultimate===
At this, the group is heading south, racing away from the general location. As they do, a few peer back, and see the guards storming the mountain. They run more and more, before ending up deep in the depths of the forest. The many are panting and panting, and rest amongst the foliage. Gant says that they're lucky they got away when they did. They wouldn't have survived a raid like that... Petunia, meanwhile, asks if they'll be safe over here, to which M'valy supposes they should sneak a little deeper into the foliage. 

Dollim herself has a suggestion, and says that spreading out would be a valid strategy. To those that want to remain, they're free to stay in the general area. Those that aren't, they're free to go wherever. The people of Holix understand, before spreading. The fox then says that the few of them should hang around, just to be safe. They do make kind of a good team. M'valy says that he'll have to teach them about their tracking techniques. They need to act fast if they're to put some distance between them and the chief's guards.

The group are each resting in the woods, hidden in the bushes. Demiurge sighed and thanked Dollim for her help. The fox nods in affirmation, saying that she couldn't have gotten out without them, and she thanks them. M'valy asks her what her and her group will do after they find the ferals, to which she replies that she's not really sure. The lot of them are rich with disgust, and odds are that they'll be hunted down to the last. And if M'ava could smell Gant's sins off of him, odds are some of the higher rank guards can to them. Demiurge gives pause, though says that when they change things with Amma, maybe they'll be able to get Dollim and group out of their situation. 

Hearing that, Dollim remarks that he sounds rather confident. What's to say that he'll be so different if they show a different way? When M'ava was shown his way would be too destructive, he doubled down and tried to kill them off. Demiurge says that he's not sure if that's the same case. If there's nothing else they can say, then it's that Amma still has principles and still seems to care for the people. If he has the chance to fix things, then maybe... maybe he'll stop the feral process at least. For now, though, he's kind of making it up as he goes. Petunia says that she'd love to get some smacks on the guy that screwed up dear Gant, though Gant says that that won't quite fix his situation. Either way, they can't really progress until they find those ferals.

With that, the group chooses to rest for the night...

;Novi 23rd

The next morning, the group wakes up, Dollim adjusting her clothing in discomfort. She remarks that it's a lot warmer out here than she's recalled, even in the autumn weather. M'valy says that she should get used to it soon, before saying that they need to get searching, fast. The arctic fox then says that she'll search around for the group. She leaves, and Demiurge then decides to ask Gant if that "smelling sin" thing is real. Gant says that a few have the ability, he himself included. But the high winds up in the mountains made it harder to pick up the intricate smell. Not everyone will pick up on their past, but some of higher ranking will tell. 

Either way, the group sits back, and waits for Dollim...
----
After a bit, Dollim returns, bearing only around a dozen of the old group. Dollim says it's disappointing, but not unexpected. M'valy says that he'll take the time to lead them, though for now, they should head out to another settlement. The stag suggests they should head east from here. The group agrees, and so they set out. Now, players are able to either walk across the '''Weathered Planes''' and run into the various guards or foes on it, or they're able to fly eastward to try and find the small village '''Novey'''.

Said village is a riverside village with cement buildings of varying sizes, with several famished villagers going from the buildings to the river to farm. The group approaches, where M'valy says that they'll each have to fan out for any sort of rumors. Additionally, they may have to work on their magical ability, for if they can hone in on either issue, then they'll be able to narrow down on the potential location of these ferals. With that, each party member and the people of Holix are prompted to head out and ask around the various villagers.
*Domin - A sheep man that's seen running a machine that grinds up products. He's surprised at the appearance of the Dragon, and says that the people of Novey don't really go out much. He apologizes for not being much help.
*Reed - A chicken lady that wields a bow and stays at a tower near the entrance. She says that she's just here to watch the village. Bandits have been plentiful, but a while ago, they've been keeping away if anyone gets too close to the northern end of the river.
*Dalla - A lobster man with armor and what looks like a war hammer. He says he's just a guard and he's one of the guys trying to make sure the people aren't hurt by whatever bandits are out there. Thankfully, there's been less bandits as of late.
*Gera - An antelope lady that appears to be preparing some sort of wine. She says that she's also stayed in the village, though the village leader, '''Gorno''', has gone north up the river recently. He hasn't come back, so they figured staying here would be better.

After speaking with various individuals, the party regroups, as do the people of Holix. Much of Holix says that the villagers haven't heard of any ferals, and Petunia says that plenty seemed to scoff at the idea. However, Demiurge brings up the only oddity he saw being the village leader going northwards. M'valy says that they haven't been able to get any information other than that, maybe they should search. 
----
So they set out, traveling north up the river. They eventually reach a wall of earth, where the river appears to originate from a waterfall. However, as they approach, gray clouds begin to bunch up overhead, much to the party's confusion. Gant remarks that it seemed like clear skies just a few minutes ago. Dollim says that this feels like some kind of omen, though Demiurge says they should press on. M'valy tells the people of Holix to keep their noses open, just in case of any wrongdoing. So, the group presses forwards, forced to investigate the '''Doni Cliffs'''. 

They go up, and throughout the holix people will point out hidden alcoves they find, hidden treasures, and other such. As they go up the cliffs, one of the Holix people, a tubby bear lady, tenses, before grasping Demiurge to stop him. Lightning zips down and strikes where they would've stepped. The bear lady says she smelled some sulfur ahead, and figured that wasn't good with this cover. M'valy says that she did really good, and says that they need to be careful ahead. Part of him's suspecting that this lightning might be malicious... With that, players press on, with the Holix people accompanying them warning them whenever lightning's about to strike somewhere. But they press on.

They eventually reach the cliff, having evaded much of the lightning. Before going up, a bunch of the Holix people say that they smell someone up there, M'valy hypothesizing that that's probably the guy behind these attacks. He suggests that they should be careful, this may be a powerful spell caster. When the player's ready, they climb the cliff, and investigate. Up there's a small forest the river goes through, and the party approaches. They step through, either party member reaching for their weaponry. 

They approach a portion of the forest, a hill that hooks over the river, that has a somewhat thin jackal man sitting on it, him wielding a staff. He's in a meditative stance, before slowly lifting a hand ushering the group to stop. He says that he controls the winds, and he's been able to smell the vilest of creatures approach. And he says that he felt such a sickness as the current party approached. Dollim backs away wearily while Petunia says that it's a long story. Demiurge asks if he's the village leader, to which he answers he was. He says he has more important business now, more important than to let people like the party threaten this patch of land.

Demiurge asks what he means, to which M'valy gives pause. He closes his eyes and clutches at his chest, taking a deep breath. His eyes widen, and he remarks that he feels "it". The meditative man begins to stand, and says that their kind cannot be allowed to linger. Now, he'll destroy them all. With that, he cups his hands, before spreading them out, sending an icy gale out that repels the Holix people, though the party remains. He declares that he'll destroy them all! With that, players are forced to battle the '''Storm Mage, Gorno'''. The fight is pretty tricky. This foe wields the power of Storm, meaning he can conjure up Wind, Water, Electric, and Fire skills. This gives him a relatively large array of potential ailments, though much of the party can resist one or two elemental damages at a time. He leans towards damage, so if players can find a way to limit his magic usage, they should win the fight.

The group's able to overwhelm the jackal, who falls to his knees, overwhelmed. As he kneels there, the rest of the party approach. Gorno declares that he will resist with all of his life. None will learn the secret of these woods! However, Demiurge says that they don't mean any harm, really. They want to fix things up and are out looking for anything. The jackal dismisses that, and says that he can smell evil on so much of them. However, Gant chooses to explain. There's a cut away, and the Storm Mage seems caught up. 

He says that he's surprised. For them to each be like this... He says that he's still not sure if he can trust them. M'valy says that whatever the case is, they're still here to fix the world. Either way, he can feel ''them''. He steps away from the group, and Demiurge and the rest follow. Gorno tells them not to go any further, but they press on anyways. They go into the forest, and Gant and the people of Holix pick up on the new smell. They each seem to speed up, before finding... a small den. There appears to be a small collection of ferals in these small woods. Does, foxes, wolves, and others, each living together. 

M'valy seems elated, lunging at one of the nearby deer and holding it closely. The people of Holix look on with pure joy, before collapsing to their knees. Petunia clasps Gant excitedly and hops, and Demiurge smiles widely, though finds a few tears coming out, him remarking that it actually feels safe to cry. He falls to his knees and cries some more, while Dollim approaches Gorno. She says that this is a huge discovery, this should've been reported to the chief ASAP! Why is he up here just hanging with these?! Gorno then says that the rest of the world doesn't deserve that. 

Many of them saw the world go from its more peaceful pace to something of a nightmare. With the lack of ferals, everyone's fallen in line with Amma's plan, regardless of how much harm he's caused. Everyone's decided his plan will work out fine enough, so now they're eating meat that used to be someone, and there're people out trying to steal said meat. And what's worse is that people've just fallen in line, as if this is an acceptable solution. He says that a world like that shouldn't go on, so he decided he'll just sit here in paradise and wait for everyone to end themselves. 

Demiurge can then say "I'm not sure I blame you" or "That's not your decision to make". To the former, much of the party turns towards him. He says he wasn't sure if he could've stood the state of this world, but M'valy found him, and gave him hope. He knows there's a chance to make things better than they are now. To the latter, he says that Gorno'd be no better than any of those people he criticizes. They gave up on a better way of life, and now he's giving up on a better life for them, and because of him, good people could be dying today! Either way, he says it doesn't matter what the Storm Mage thought, they can make things better. 

Gant then asks what they should do, to which the stag says that they should spread news to Hullo. If Amma hears about this, then they should be able to get someone here. Dollim points out that they're not welcome among the guards, though points out maybe that someone in Novey should be able to send a message. Demiurge says that they should head back, and the Holix people says that they can stay behind to keep the forest safe. Gant also suggests they should drag Gorno along, just in case he feels like trying anything.

With that, players take up the jackal, and fly off to Novey, ready to have a message be delivered. And then, it'll be a matter of time. 

;Novi 24th - Novi 28th

After that, it's a matter of waiting, all while '''Gorno''' is forced to tag along with the party. They want to make sure they keep a good eye on him. This gives players a chance to perform sidequests, deepen bonds, and gather experience, while getting to know the new party member for a little while. It'll be a while, but eventually, the time will come.

;Novi 29th

This day, the guards are supposed to arrive at the forest. So, the many party members fly up, Gorno included, and up to the cliff. They settle down, and the many ferals are still ok, the Holix people even petting a few. Demiurge asks if anything happened, to which a squirrel man in the group says that no one came close. Maybe Gorno's storms scared off the guys for good. The jackal seems surprised that the animals are safe around these people, though he tries not to show it. Either way, Demiurge says that they should all be ready, things are going to be changing for the better anytime now. And so, they wait.

Eventually, they can see several lines of guards marching towards them. And at the forefront are Lata, Gasha, and between the two of them is Amma himself. Demiurge seems to suddenly realize how little he's actually seen the man, but still felt his presence in everyone around. He shuts his eyes in reflection, as if rehearsing what he plans to say. They walked more and more, before the many stopped at the front border of the forest. Amma and the other two raise their arms to signal to the guards to hold steady. Amma steps forwards, seeing the line of the party. He looks among each, only seeming to take note of Demiurge and Gant. He says that they're either bold to summon them here, or they're wishing to repent in some way. 

Gant recoils, though Demiurge says that surely they read the note, surely they know why they're here. Amma then says that his men have searched high and low for ferals, surely they jest. He almost expected this to be an ambush, but if the enemies of the state are offering themselves like this... Demiurge, however, brings up a hand to signal him to stop. He says that they'll show them. Amma seems skeptical, though he tells his guards to follow close behind, while the other two stay close to his sides. The party carefully goes into the forest, and the group follows behind.

They eventually reach the Holix people standing guard, and they each spread, the squirrel picking up one of the deer and coming close to the group. Shock crosses all of the officials, though an almost relief crosses many of them. Amma's expression, meanwhile, appears unreadable as he looks over the ferals here. Demiurge can't help but feel there's something slightly familiar about that expression. He stabs his spears into the ground and approaches the squirrel wordlessly. The Holix man offers the deer earnestly, and the lion takes it in his arms, expression not changing. Demiurge says that this is the moment to change, to make things better for everyone. Amma's done many awful things, but this is his chance to repent. They'll breed these ferals, distribute the meat, and put an end to the unintelligence process. 

Amma, meanwhile, walks away from the group, who looks on in bated breath. Amma walks more and more, soon approaching the cliff. Demiurge furrows his brow curiously, and begins to spread his wings. Amma seems to give one glance to the feral... before lowering his arms. He doesn't toss the feral, he doesn't drop, he just lowers his arms and lets gravity pull the deer from his arms and down towards the ground below. The party's each mortified, and Demiurge's quick to flap his wings and try to race down the cliff to catch the feral. Amma, meanwhile, turns around and steps back towards the alarmed guards, past the mortified party. With an almost emotionless voice, he orders the guards to kill all of them. Lata, through a warbling voice, says that they can't, only to be cut off by him saying, a bit more sternly, to kill them all, the ferals and the party. 

He continues to walk, stepping through the guards as they press on, and all the while the party begins to shake off the shock to call him out. M'valy shouts out, declaring that this is exactly what the people have needed! Petunia shouts that he's even more a mad man if he thinks this is acceptable! Gant says the chief's supposed to look out for the people, that this won't help anyone! Dollim says that everyone's been struggling to survive in the famine, and says that they can't just let everyone else keep on suffering! Gorno says that he's an even bigger moron if he really thinks this is the best use of his time! However, despite all of their words, Amma ignores each of them and keeps on walking while the guards that accompanied him step forwards and get ready for fight. Lata and Gasha step back, and players, without the help of Demiurge, are forced to face a four man group of guards.


Fortunately, with the party members available, it shouldn't be a hard fight at all. After beating those four, there're still plenty to deal with. Demiurge, however, is able to make it back up to the forest, having caught the deer without harm. M'valy says that they have to get out of here, fast! The Dragon nods and tells everyone to grab as many ferals as possible, they have to take them out of here. The people of Holix say that they'll try to hold back the guards as much as they can, and Dollim says that they'll be in danger. A bear lady in the group assures that they'll get away if things look too dicey. Either way, the party's able to round up the ferals, group up on Demiurge, and the Dragon flies out of the forest and all the way to Novey. And as he does, Lata can't help but watch them with a sort of longing.
----
The group returns to Novey, ferals in hand and getting the attention of a lot of the people there. Gorno tells them that the ferals aren't to be touched, and they have to be kept safe for now. He says that they might make crop gathering a little tricky, but he'll see to it that everyone gets fed. Meanwhile, the rest of the party is left to contemplate. Petunia asks why he would do that, why would he want to get rid of something as precious to this world as a feral? Demiurge says he doesn't know, but whatever's going on, those guys will know where the ferals are. M'valy says that that's almost a certainty, and says that they'll have to repel the guards. Gant says that they'll have to push them all the way back to Hullo, and Demiurge says he'll push them to the ocean if he has to. But for now, they'll have to keep on their guard.

So, they're left to recover from the stress of the day. And as they relax, Reed announces that the Holix people are returning. She also points out that they seem to have... Lata? The group's confused, and steps out towards the front. Indeed, the Holix people approach, and between their people is that cat lady with the Boomstick. They come closer and closer, and notice the once loyal cat appears awfully shaken. Gant asks them what the heck the guards are up to right now. Lata says she doesn't know, this was the first time Amma showed any intention like this.

She says that she's had bad blood with the Dragon, but that's only because her father hasn't been himself when he showed up. He seemed more aggro, more irritable, more high strung. And now, he's started making the unintelligence process more personal than it should've been, at which Demiurge snaps that they shouldn't be a thing in the first place. Lata waves him down and swears that if it weren't for necessity, this wouldn't be a thing. But now, seeing him snap like this, she decides that she can't keep following him. This is why she's choosing to fight alongside them from here on out. The party's alarmed, and Dollim asks if they can really trust her. Lata says that she's one lady in the enemy lines, she couldn't do much against them if she wanted. Either way, she swears that she'll work to do everything necessary for the ferals' survival. 

With that, '''Lata''' joins the party. And then, the group decides that they'll have to turn in for the night, but come tomorrow, they'll have to mount an offensive against the guards.

;Novi 30th - Demi 11th

With this, the player must go through the trail, along the river, to the cliff, and back to the forest the ferals were originally stationed. Before going out, Gorno says that they can't leave any loose ends behind. They could try to fly up, but if they do, then they risk letting any of the guards break into Novey. Demiurge says that he's fine with shoving the offensive line all the way back. So, the objective's clear, cleave through the enemy line from front to end. In a rare case, the "Random Encounters" out here are saved, and the final boss of the segment won't show up unless every cluster of guard is felled. 

This involves traversing the riverside and pushing the guards out, before going up the cliff players went through before, and getting to the forest itself. The guards are somewhat tricky, but shouldn't be too hard so long as the player's attentive. They chew through units based around projectile (stabbing) damage, units based on slashing/smashing, units based around magic, and mixes. But, with enough work from the party, they should be able to defeat the lot of them. When the last of the guards are beaten, Lata speaks up. She says that by now, the man currently in charge should be out front. Gasha's not a foe to be taken lightly. Either way, the enemy forces are pushed back, now they'll have to go to the forest. And so, the player's able to, where they find the lemur waiting in the middle, standing near the river bank. 

The lemur sees them, and takes note of Lata. He says that the guards weren't sure what'd happened when she vanished, but when he heard the reports, he couldn't believe it. But here she is now, aiding the bad guys. Lata, however, counters saying that Amma's orders make no sense. Gasha, however, simply says that Amma's always acted in the interest of the people. Even if it doesn't make sense now, everything will just work out, won't it? Gorno says that it's that mentality that's made things worse, and that it's exactly those kinds of thoughts they need to put down! The party each takes up their weapons, while Gasha draws his whip and threateningly lashes at the ground. He declares that if tearing this group down is what'll make dear Chief Amma happy, than he'll more than oblige.

With that, the fight with '''Gasha''' starts. For the first portion of the fight, Gasha will summon in a pair of guards, one focusing on magic one focusing on buffing. The buffer will keep on working on Gasha's attack and evasion ability, while the magic guard will assail the party with dangerous spells. Fortunately, the group should be able to deal with this relatively easily, able to down the guards and leave Gasha himself wide open to tough attacks. After bringing him down to half health, he grunts and snarls at the group. He says that ever since these guys started popping up, Amma's been on edge! And now this happens, and he's now struggling to keep face! He swears he'll bring back the chief he knew! 

Lata tells him to shove it. He was presented a better solution to his problems, and now he's gone off the deep end over it. This isn't stress, this is him making a fool of himself! She won't validate his tantrum, and now she decides that she'll beat him into sense if she has to! Gasha groans and says that he refuses to entrtain their delusions anymore. And now, he pulls out charming skills, with which he can turn party members against each other while also giving himself the chance to buff up. But through this, players should be able to push through Gasha's defenses and overwhelm him.

He grunts and is driven back, digging his feet down to try and halt himself. He panted and panted and dropped to a knee, still panting. He tells Lata that she's making a big mistake. However, the cat simply says that they're here to fix the chief's mistakes. The lion will be taken down. The lemur sighs, before standing up. He says that this won't be the end, that they'll keep on fighting! However, Gorno simply says that they'll respond in kind. With that, the lemur swings down a smoke bomb, and allows himself to flee.

With that, the current mission is finished. 

;Demi 12th

On this day, the group wakes up. Demiurge decides to search the general area between here and the forest, and a quick sweep shows no one there. Demiurge returns and tells the group that the guards have yet to regroup. Lata says that they likely won't be silent for long. However, Gant suggests that now that they're licking their wounds, maybe they can launch an offensive. Petunia says that that sounds like a wonderful plan, though Dollim speaks up and asks if they'll be ok. Even with the guards down, there's a whole score of foes inside Hullo. However, Demiurge decides to speak up. 

He says that they can't keep the enemy shoved back for long. They can't afford to see whether or not he'll falter in his plot, and they can't afford to waste resources. So, their best bet is to take the fight to Chief Amma, and beat some sense into him. M'valy gives pause, though softly nods. He remarks that that lion's been a thorn in the Dragon's side for so long... So he wishes to support him. Gant says that the lot of them have reason to resist that guy, so he's willing to step in. Petunia also speaks up, leaning up against Gant and saying that she'll join in the fight! Dollim says that it might not be a smart plan, but she'd like to beat on that jerk, that kinda meat could've saved Holix. Gorno says that he despises what Amma says, and he's willing to rain thunder and lightning down on that man's head. Lata says that of course she'll join along, she's got to stop that man after his drastic changes. 

The party each unites, before splitting. Gorno says that he'll speak to the people of Novey to tell them that they need to keep the ferals safe for a little longer. Petunia says that she and Gant will spend some time together, the wolf seeming surprised by the news but not outright refusing. That leaves Demiurge, M'valy, Dollim, and Lata together. Lata apologizes for what she's done. She admits that she was kind of like Gasha in that she figured that by wringing the lot of them in, then Amma might go back to normal. Demiurge says that, considering how scared she seems to be for her father, he can understand. He can, sort of, understand what it's like trying to impress a guardian. 

Dollim says that she should still be at a far enough reach, but if she can help them pierce the defenses, then she could be helpful. Still, she warns the cat that there are a few people in this group that can kill. Lata nods in affirmation, and realizes that they'll probably have to reconsider just what to do to people like Holix's people. M'valy, meanwhile, turns to Demiurge and says that he should get serious. He owes everything to the Dragon. He could scarecly imagine being able to go back to his tribe proud, but now their future will be secure. He thanks the Dragon, and thanks him for everything. Demiurge, however, tells him he's thankful for the effort he's put in. The world needs people like him to do what's right while everything else looks wrong. 

With all of that said, the party members are turning in for the night. Demiurge looks in the direction of Hullo, silently staring. Amma's done so much harm. Not just him, but everyone that tore the ferals' numbers down. The world won't be fixed overnight, but for things to change, everyone needs to see Amma and everything he's worked for torn down. He then tells Sophia, regardless of if she can hear or not, that he'll show her this place can be better.
===Finale===
;Demi 13th

On this day, the party has to march out. Gorno tells the people of the village to keep the ferals safe, them each nodding in affirmation. With that, Lata says they'll march out to Hullo, and there they'll put an end to the mess her father's made. And with that, they each make their move. Players can either go north of the cliffs the forest rests on, or they can fly north.

Once going north enough, the group stops a fair distance away from the walls of Hullo, them seeing the various devices upon it, a thick gate out front to keep it defended. Once here, M'valy says that they should set up camp nearby. They'll probably end up having to retreat to lap up their wounds, so they should make sure they remain somewhere hidden. Gant agrees, and once here, they set out, M'valy leading to some thick bushes that they can hide in, setting up their camp. Dollim ends up helping, her being very familiar with camping in the snow. They each set up their camp, and from here, they're ready to start their mission.

;Demi 13th - Demi 28th

First things first, their group has to penetrate the wall. They can't go through the gate, so they'll have to fly over it. Unfortunately, there's a cannon right upon it. Lata says that those things are vulnerable, but they're awfully hard. She warns that they should prepare themselves. They approach the wall, at which the group clings to Demiurge, who flies up. As he does, the jaguar guard manning it is alarmed. He frantically messes with the controls and tries aiming, though Demiurge's able to weave around the fire before eventually getting up on it. The jaguar shouts for help, and guards start to come in. With that, the fight with the '''Guard Cannon''' starts. The cannon itself boasts high defense and attack power, though it has the unique feature of needing a turn to load up before firing the next turn. Other than that, players need to worry about guards that'll annoy the party. Fortunately, it shouldn't be too hard to take care of the contraption. 

The cannon's left in splinters and the guards around are left in chaos. They each flee from the scene, while many guards from far off are beginning to get up and are on alert. Gant says that things aren't going to be easy, though Petunia says that everything will work out, especially with Gant on their side. Lata says that Amma will likely be within the Chief castle near the edge of town, that'll be the most defensive position. Dollim says that they'll tear through the enemies' defenses, and Demiurge nods in assurance. 

Lata says that a lot of the guards will probably be grouping up at the edges of the walls, so they should head down. With that, the party's free to go down into the town itself, where the many villagers are hiding away, fearful. They're about to move on, though Dollim speaks up. She says that she doubts Amma let them know anything about what's going on outside of Hullo. So, they should spread word of the ferals among the various houses. Gant, meanwhile, agrees, clearly eager to see his family again, though he admits he's not sure if he can face them. Petunia tells him that she'll be sure to make him look good. With that, before the group moves onto the castle itself, the party splits to go door to door, spreading word of the existence of ferals. Much of the villagers are un-trusting, though definitely seem surprised at the mere idea. There's a very clear hope among them that these guys speak the truth. And throughout, players will have to deal with the guards lining the streets. 

After that, the group regroups in town square. Once there, Gant says that he checked his home, but he didn't see his family. M'valy says that they'd probably have left. Dollim assures the wolf, saying there's no certainty in their fate. Gant doesn't seem certain, but Gorno says they can't relax for long. He asks Lata how the front gate sounds, to which she replies that they'll probably face a lot of resistance that way. However, the pens will probably be less guarded, so long as they get through the gate. Demiurge is clearly uncomfortable, though M'valy supposes that that might be the only way. So, the group heads to the gates near the base of the castle, where Demiurge and Gant utilize their strength to lift the gates and go through.
----
They progress in, and as they open, they can hear what appear to be the noises of various people trying to imitate ferals, them sounding somewhat excited as the front gate opens. However, the noises turn to confusion as the gate shuts and no one's let out. Demiurge gives a shudder and finds himself struggling to look near them, though much of the party's tempted to look. Demiurge can hear the various people around feel and bang against the cages they're each locked in. Lata says that they should find a set of stairs near the end, and if they go up, they'll be able to enter the castle proper. 

As they progress, however, they encounter a guard, who stumbles back. The party seems convinced that they can take him and begin to take up arms. The guard backs away, before glancing towards one of the cages, this one bearing an alligator that looks up at the guard pleadingly. The guard then takes the latch of the cage, before yanking it up and pulling it to the side, releasing the gator, much to the party's horror. The guard whistles before saying in a commanding tone "Sick 'em". And thus, with little more provocation, the gator turns towards the party and begins lunging at them. The party's alarmed, but are ultimately forced to fight the '''Devolved Alligator'''. 

The party's able to take care of him relatively easily, though of course they're not comfortable with it. After beating it, Demiurge shudders and cups his mouth, trying to fight back his vomit. As they do, Lata points out that that guard's disappeared. If he's going this far, he's probably gonna release more. Gant then says that they should be careful. He asks Lata if they can be... fixed. But Lata says that the process for restoration is impossible. Gant sighs, and says that they can't really do anything for them. With that, the group presses onwards, looking for the stairs. And as they go up, players will have to fight other guards, as well as other Devolved people.

Eventually, they're up the stairs, and progressing through the halls. These halls lead into a small chamber with several cast iron doors. They press through, and on the other side... They find coat racks with what look like animal leads hanging from them, and inside is Gasha with a whip, him now bearing a leather eyepatch over his left eye, and several weapons sheathed on his back. He says that the chief wasn't happy. Lata says that Amma's gone off the deep end, that's why they're here, to stop him. Gasha, however, says that if everyone had just done their jobs, he wouldn't be hurting right now. Worse still, after his punishment, he now can't properly lash a whip, he has to be entirely dependent on the guards. He tells Lata that he told Amma about her betrayal, and says he has plenty worse in store for her. He then turns towards Gant and says, with an uncomfortable amount of vagueness, that he to will be made to feel his consequences. Gant asks what he means, though the lemur simply leaves, going deeper through the halls.

The group progresses, going through the apparent Leashing Chamber, before following Gasha's trail into a room with large iron tables, blood drenching the head of them while large, bladed tools are around. There're also portraits around depicting the head of a generic fox man, a though bubble pointing to a specific part of the brain that a knife's pointing at. It appears to be some kind of diagram, possibly helping these guys go through Devolution. As they progress, however, a pair of guards stand at the way out, Gasha standing behind either of them. Gasha tells the pair that if they run off, then Amma will do worse to them than these guys ever could. The next fight appears similar to other fights, but Gasha will cast buffing spells on the guards, cast spells to inflict Charm on the party, and even toss weapons towards guards which'll change up their damage types and allow them to use different skills.

After taking them out, Gasha retreats further, forcing the party to progress. As they do, Gasha asks if they're sure this will fix anything. Plenty of ferals roamed the land before, and they've been stricken down to this small a number. What'll happen if these ones expire? Demiurge says that they'll run things better, that they'll fix things for everyone. Nothing will be easy from here on, but one day, everything will be better than they are now. Gasha simply says that there are plenty that will never feel that better life, before he progresses deeper in. And as the players walk, they pass be several more cast iron doors, some empty but some with a still intelligent animal person on the other side. They're probably being held and waiting to be Devolved. Either way, the party presses onwards.
----
The group continues on. They're able to exit the Devolution sector, and soon arrive at what seems to be a sort of main hall to the castle. This leads towards a set of stairs that looks as if it leads up to almost the top of the castle. And on the staircase is the lion man himself, Amma, him holding a goblet while guards on either side of him are each beside large, covered cages. The group tenses before Demiurge steps forwards. He says that Amma's gone too far now, that it's time to stop him! Amma, however, claims that he doesn't care whatever the lot of them say, that he'll tear apart their lies all the same. Gorno raises a brow, and asks what he means by lies.

Amma says that no matter what, he has the right of way for these people. Their pathetic little garden won't save as many people as his world will. But M'valy steps forwards and says that they refuse to accept his world! They will bring forth something better than what he's made! Amma, however, sneers and nears the cages, at which he waves the goblet before them. And then, the cages shake about as snarling is heard within, Gant's ears perking up in worry. Amma says that these've been special projects after he heard about the kind of people that'd stand against him. 

He then takes the goblet, before hurling its contents at the party, them shrugging off the drink as it falls on them. However, they smell the brew, Dollim saying that it's blood. Amma then steps back, and the guards draw the cloth off of the cages, exposing three devolved wolf people: a large woman, a large man, and a boy half Gant's size. Seeing them, Gant's eyes widen, his jaw hanging as he looks at each of them. Amma says that he was supposed to protect them, wasn't he? Well he's chosen to deny the way of the chief, so they weren't protected. He commands the guards to move, before they each smash the locks off. At that, the three devolved wolves charge out and race along the path of blood, lunging at the party. They each guard and shove the enemies off. 

Gant, however, is practically frozen still. He's clasping at his temples and panting harder and harder, the thoughts of earlier, of Lata saying that the process is permanent, clearly running through his head. He pants and pants, and Dollim says that they can't merely resist, unfortunately. She tells him that they have to fight. Demiurge says that he's sorry about what's happening, but whatever happens here, they'll support him as best he can. Petunia says that she'll do anything for him to help him after today, but first they need to survive.

Gant's teetering on the edge of lunacy, but he takes up his weapons either way. The party is thus forced to battle '''Devolved Father''', '''Devolved Mother''', and '''Devolved Brother''', while Amma himself lingers in the back lines, being an enemy that can't be targeted, even by AOE attacks. The mother and father both rely on high attack, mom wielding Cosmic power while father wielding Light power, to bear down on the party, while the brother relies on evasion and boosting the father and mother's defenses. Meanwhile, Amma will cast reflective walls on one of the foes, and will even appear to perform a skill, "Maddening Words", to trigger Gant's Lunacy. Through some hard work on the party's part, they're each able to defeat the devolved family members. 

With all of their health down, they finally collapse, felled by their attacks. The party begins to pocket their weapons, while Gant just stands there, physically shaking. He glares up at Amma, who just glares back. Then, he turns and walks up the stairs with an alarming level of calmness, without even sparing a word. Gant, however, snarls and extends his claws, starting to go feral. Demiurge tells him to wait, but he's already charging up the stairs, howling the chief's name. Amma, meanwhile, tightens his grip on his spears, anticipating the assault, the guards following suit. Then, Amma turns around and stabs at him, running him through on his weapon. While Gant's halted, the rest of the party charges up as either guard draws a machete and are ready to slash at him. However, Dollim catches one's arm, M'valy blocks the other's with his bow, and Petunia races in to clock the third guard with her club, before lunging at either of them to smack them down. Meanwhile, Amma backs away, drawing his spear out of Gant to leave him down.

The party's forced to tend to Gant while Amma presses on, grimacing as three tough warriors were felled and a fresh piece of meat appears to be out of his grasp. He press on and through a set of heavy doors, them shutting tightly. The party keeps on tending to them, M'valy working on his wounds while Petunia gently cradles his head, Dollim, Gorno, and Lata standing back. M'valy explains that the family members are unconcious now, but he doesn't know anything about undoing this process. Lata says she knew Amma was going bad, but to go this far... Gorno asks how this man had ever been in control... though, on second thought, if he does things like this he can probably understand why someone might be afraid of going up against ''that'' monster. Dollim says that despite everything, Amma's appeared to've stricken down that rampaging monster in a single blow. Demiurge can then say "This is proof we need to beat him" or "He only wants us to be discouraged. We can't fall back" Either way, the party sighs. Dollim says they're in too deep, they have to keep moving forwards.

Either way, after a bit of respite, Gant can be heard groaning, his body tensing a little. He begins to climb up, Petunia and M'valy backing away as he sits up. Gant, meanwhile, is breathing heavily, as if he's just come out of a marathon. As he sits there, he starts to register what's just happened, especially as he realizes where he is. As he does, Petunia comes in from behind to hug him. She assures him that Amma will pay. Gant, meanwhile, seems tired and disheveled, tears beginning to seep down. Noticing that, Petunia climbs around to hug him from in front, the wolf hugging around her and holding tightly as he can only cry.
----
After that, Gant's standing, though there's a clear sense of despair in him. Still, he says that Amma needs to pay for doing this to them, the rest of the party agreeing. They're now able to progress onwards, though find the doors Amma went through are sealed shut. Lata says that there're usually multiple passages through the castle installed in case they need to flee in an emergency. Maybe if they find one, they'll be able to go around the halls and get into his throne. 

So, they're tasked with retreating, and finding a hallway into another sector of the castle. If they search the current staircase, they should be able to find other hallways, either leading somewhere that'll hopefully bring them closer to the throne.
*Northern Battery - A series of defensive turrets that guards can stand behind, intended to rain fire upon those that attempt an assault on the front via either bows, boomsticks, or spells. Demiurge actually remembers these attempting to strike him. Dollim suggests that they should get rid of the weaponry here, though Lata says that if they do fell Amma, then they should be able to use these to their advantage. In this area, there are guards that patrol the area, and Lata points out there being a passage in this room, though there being one means it's probably heavily guarded.
*Southern Battery - A series of defensive turrets that guards can stand behind, intended to rain fire upon those that attempt an assault on the front via either bows, boomsticks, or spells. Demiurge actually remembers these attempting to strike him. Dollim suggests that they should get rid of the weaponry here, though Lata says that if they do fell Amma, then they should be able to use these to their advantage. Lata points out two passages in this room, security being somewhat tight.
*Resting Quarters - A long, long room adjacent to the normal hallways to either battery, there are many cots in this room that around the area, while a large table's in the middle of it. Lata explains that there won't be a lot of guys around because everyone's on high alert. She points to there being three of those passages in here, and it should be easy to go through.

Players will have varying levels of difficulty going through these passages depending on which room they choose to go through, but in the end, they should be able to make it to the throne room. They're about to enter, though Lata says that if Amma's in here, then this'll be their toughest fight yet. Chief Amma's a powerful creature, the people saying that he'd rival that of the Dragon. Demiurge gives pause, though thinks back to their last fight. M'valy then says that they won't accomplish anything if they stop here. So, after preparations, they press onwards. 

They breach the halls and enter the throne room, though find a lack of Amma inside. Instead, there's Gasha, while tons of guards stand inside in a ring around the throne. The party's alarmed at their appearance, and Gasha greets them. He says that Amma still wanted to show the group hell, so here they are. Gorno then points out that Gasha can't fight, to which the lemur replies that he won't be here wielding a weapon. Dollim then speaks up, remarking that's another leader leaving their people out to dry. Gorno gives a grimace and rubs at his shoulder, while Gasha assures that these men can take care of themselves. He retreats, and the party presses forwards, and thus the group's forced to battle the '''Guard Horde'''.

The Guard Horde fight consists of players battling a large conglomerate of the various enemy types players can encounter while Gasha himself is un-targetable. The Horde has access to many, many different skills as such, and all the while Gasha will attempt to debuff party members, or attempt to inflict charm. After taking care of about half of the enemies, Dollim speaks up. She says that they have an awful lot of forces here doing nothing while villages are out struggling. Gasha says that their group cannot grasp what their group's been doing, though Dollim doesn't want to hear any of it, telling him that they had to do terrible things while the guards hid away, but the moment some dumb old Dragon pops up, they're up in arms. Gorno then follows up, saying that it doesn't matter talking to these guys. All they want is to hurt them now, just like the rest of the world's been doing. Gasha seems offended, and says he'll offer no mercy. The fight continues, only now Gasha's able to toss his weaponry towards a member of the horde, meaning they may be able to use a skill that a lost member of the horde was able to use. Fortunately, after enough fighting, the group should be able to defeat the horde.

After that, the party's down and panting, feeling really spent. They're standing yet slumped over, while Gasha looks over the many unfortunate guards. He says that this's very unfortunate, but they will have to move on. The lemur says that no matter what they do here, Amma will have them destroyed. He then races towards the side, Demiurge watching. And then, he sees him climb up some of the bits of the wall, scaling it towards what appears to be an upper floor, which appears to be some sort of scaffolding whose stairs were shattered. M'valy asks if they're really to go up there to find Amma, to which Demiurge says that they very may well have to.

Gant goes to reach, only for the etchings to start to crumble under him, to which he pulls away. Dollim then begins climbing, as do M'valy. Petunia points out that she can't do anything, she's covered in heavy gear. Gorno also says that he can't do anything, he's too frail. Demiurge furrows his brow, before saying that he thinks he can fly up there. At that, M'valy and Dollim pause, before gently coming down to the ground. They group up, and the Dragon flies up, ending up on the loft up there. Some invstigationo leads them to find a long length of rope, which they can put down to make going up here easier.
----
They go through the scaffolding, and are able to get outside, making it to some of the outcropping. While on the cropping, the group can hear a horn from on high. Looking up, they can see Gasha blowing a giant, ivory horn while Amma stands beside it, looking down on the group. And while they're dealing with that, the many cannons on the walls suddenly turn towards the castle. Realizing their situation, the group retreats inside before the cannonballs can rend them. Lata says that there's no other way up, they'll need to go through that way. Demiurge says if they go airborne, the weapons'll probably strike them from on high. So Petunia asks if they're supposed to destroy each of the cannons, to which Dollim says that if they have to, then she'd be happy to do that. 

When they go down, Lata says that from the throne room they should be able to go through the various main halls and reach not just the staircase they saw before, but they should be able to make it to the walls bordering Hullo. With that, the next mission is to go onto either wall and smash the cannons on them, 3 on one side, 2 on the other (due to one of them being destroyed earlier). Fortunately, it should be a simple task, as they lack reinforcements. However, players will have to be weary of Boomstick Guards and magic wielders. After dealing with the cannons, Lata says that they've secured the path up, they should be able to reach Amma now.

They go back to before, and head up the scaffolding. Then, it's back through the outer walkway they were stopped at before, and head up, going up the main tower in the direction of the horn from before. They progress towards the doorway that they saw Gasha and Amma at before, it just behind the horn. And once there, Lata speaks up. She says that their fight will be extremely tough from here on out. Amma's probably trapped up here, and if he's got Gasha with him... She says that they need to prepare for anything from here on out. The player's prompted to say whether or not they're ready, and when they say they're ready, they progress through the doorway.
----
The party each steps through, ending up in a chamber up high in the castle tower. And in the middle of it is Gasha and Chief Amma, him with a spear in one hand and his other two strapped to his back. The party approaches and glowers at the duo as the lion points his spearhead towards them. Amma says he's had enough of them, that they've annoyed him far too much. He says that everything could've just played out as normal if their group had never appeared. However, M'valy speaks up, saying that they found a way to live better than how Amma could, and the lion shied away when he saw that. Amma merely says that their way won't fix anything, though Demiurge notices a bit of a stagger to him.

Lata asks what's gotten into him, to which Demiurge speaks up, stepping forwards to say he knows what's gotten into him. The party seems curious, even Amma raising a brow anticipating what the Dragon will say. Demiurge explains, he's had to make very hard decisions in the past, and has always worried about the effect that has on him. However, when the Dragon, the shaper of history, appears before him and hates what he's done, he began to worry about the decisions he made. Then, a while later he found out the ferals he'd been searching for so long, and that cemented to him that when he chose, he chose wrong. 

Amma's face scrunches up in response, a snarl beginning to form. Demiurge continues that now seeing that his years of crimes were wrong, he can't handle it. He's been fighting to either stamp out their group, or to stamp out the ferals outright, just so he can lay confident in thinking that his plan is right. Demiurge says he knows this, he knows that he's regretted his choices, because he bore eyes akin to what Demiurge himself had once upon a time. He says that he knows what it's like to make mistakes you can never fix, but he also knows that the best they can do is to move on from it to make something better than what they made!

Amma then snarls that he's heard enough, swinging his spear in a wide arc sideways, as if trying to repel them. He says that he doesn't care what they spout. He is the best thing the world has right now, he is the best chance of survival, and that everyone's sided with him. However, Dollim speaks up, pointing out that they had to side with him because that's the only choice they provided! M'valy says that they will all abandon their way of life once the ferals come to life. Petunia says that everyone's suffered for Amma's decisions, and that everyone will take time to recover from his choices. Gant says that Amma's abandoned the last bit of morality to the process and had personally chosen who should suffer devolution. Gorno says that the world's gone to a terrible place, and when given the chance to fix it, he's decided to throw a tantrum, that he needs to be felled. Lata says that she... that everyone's been blind to his crimes for too long, and now that he refuses redemption, it's time to face justice.

Amma growls and stamps the ground while brandishing his spear towards the party again. He snarls and says he doesn't care what any of them think. He's lived through so much more than the lot of them ever had, that they have no right to tell him he's doing things wrong. If he needs to, then he'll tear them apart to get them out of his way! Each party member draws their weaponry while Demiurge steps forwards. He says that he still knows he has a lot to learn, but he knows that he needs to stop this. He's seen the world for the better, and he knows that for things to get better, then he needs to stop Amma here and now! With that, the fight finally begins, with the group all squaring off against '''Chief Amma'''.

Chief Amma wields one spear, currently not taking up the other two. He's physically domineering, typically either buffing up his strength or increasing the chances of critical hits, while also able to use multi-targeting Stabbing skills. He's also seen able to cast Lightning magic and Cosmic magic, allowing him to possibly Stun or Omen party members, which is especially worrying when he uses multi-targeting skills. As the fight goes on, he'll sometimes call for Gasha, who'll appear wielding a weapon. And when he does, players are able to target him, and if they don't beat him in one round, then he'll pass the weapon to Amma, giving him more skills and allowing him to deal an additional amount of damage. He can be passed a sword which lets him deal Slashing and Fire damage, a club which lets him deal Smashing and Earth damage, or another spear that lets him deal additional Stabbing damage.

After bringing him down to 50% health, he tells Gasha to leave him. He says that he refuses to bear weakness anymore, that he'll use only his strength to tear their world apart. With that, he draws the other two spears, holding two in one hand and one in the other. Now he won't accept other weapons, but instead has the ability to act three times, as well as access to use Severe skills. He's still a physical powerhouse, and still able to increase crit rate.

After bringing him down to 15% health, he pants more and more, before growling out, his powerful aura seeming to shred his cape. He raises his spears, before smashing them down on the ground, sending a wave that repels the party members and Gasha, except for Demiurge, much of the structure of the tower crumbling. He stands up and stands off against Demiurge, saying that he's changed everything for the worse. He swears to tear him apart once and for all! For the final portion, it's Demiurge vs Amma one on one, the player having to either damage Amma fast enough to drain his health, or find ways to counteract Amma's plans. Fortunately, with enough work, they should be able to defeat him.

He pants and pants, coming down to his knees and dropping his weapons. He pants and pants as the party closes in, the lion glaring up at them all. Lata says that it's over, he's finished. The lion pants more and more and stand up, weapons still on the ground. He backs away, saying that he doesn't care what they say anymore. He's lived his life, he's done what he can right, and if everything says otherwise... then he'll let the world move on without him. He backs away, and plummets from the tower, taking a long plummet down to the ground. The party, meanwhile, are panting and panting, each falling back onto their backsides. Gasha, meanwhile, looks on with alarm. Lata asks him what he's going to do, to which he replies that he doesn't know right now. If they beat Amma, he's not sure what anyone else can do to them. However, he steps back and tells them that they're free to spread the news. He's not sure how they'll respond, so he supposes they should be prepared for anything.
----
The group returns to the square, the many guards alarmed. They each clearly seem shaken and don't want to resist them, so they stand down, showing them fealty. They see more and more stop themselves before the group's back at the square. From there, Lata says that they've done it. They may not've saved him, but at least they ended his reign. M'valy assures that a brighter future is in store, though Gorno pipes up saying that the lot of them probably won't see that future. Dollim says that a lot will suffer for the many decisions made, but now there's a chance someone will make things better after they learn what'd gone down here. Petunia then wraps around one of Gant's arms and says she can't wait for their kids to see a calmer world. Gant blushes and pulls away, asking her not to be so loud, they haven't talked about ''that'' yet.

M'valy shakes his head before asking Lata how ruling will be handled now. Lata answers that with the previous chief out, the hand of leadership will move down to the next of kin or, in case one isn't available, their close confidant. And, considering she'd gone turncoat, she's pretty sure that she's not going to be on that throne. There's a darkness amongst the group as Gorno asks if that means things won't change. Gasha agreed with Amma's plans so far. Lata sighs and says that if worse comes to worse, then they'll just have to keep on protecting those ferals until they can make a rule that tears down Amma's rules. 

For now, though, they've probably done about all they can. In the meantime, they should wait. As they do, Demiurge finds himself sighing and slumping, before shaking himself awake. The group's confused at that, though the Dragon reasons he's just a little tired after everything. He says that they should probably head back. 

And at this moment, players return home to relax for the day, but after that, they're able to just do what they want. Finish whatever relationships they have, perform any sidequests they have left, maybe even clear up some final challenges that only unlock after Amma's defeat.

;Demi 29th

The group checks on Novey again, making sure that the ferals are ok. They even see that there're a few babes among the group. M'valy says that these are very good results. Meanwhile, Lata arrives. She says that apparently Gasha's been spreading word that their group aren't illegal anymore. Apparently during that final fight, when the group spelled it out, he realized deep down how selfish Amma really was. Gant says that's great to hear. Lata assures that not all guards will be compliant, but they won't have to hide as much anymore. Plus, his coronation will be in a short while. Word has it that they'll open the new year with a new era. 

Petunia says that after everything, she'll be happy to greet the new year. Demiurge sighs and says that he'd be more than happy. After everything... He trails off, before shaking awake. Dollim asks if he's alright, and points out that he's been acting off ever since they beat Amma. Demiurge says that he's fine, he swears it. The party's still unsure, but they're not sure how to pursue on the deal with Demiurge, so they decide to talk about other matters.

Gant says that they should probably check out the local settlements, see how everyone's doing. M'valy says that now that news is spreading, his troop will probably meet up where he's grown up, so if they can check that place out sometime... Demiurge says that that'd be great. Would be nice to see how the world behaves as a better era dawns on them. Gorno then says that they should probably check with the people of Novey before heading out. With that, they step out and onto the normal city, though as they do, a beacon of colorless light beams up into the sky like a beacon, Petunia pointing it out. M'valy points out that that light looks kind of like Demiurge's magic, which the Dragon realizes it is. Gorno asks if that means there's another Dragon, and Demiurge says that he should probably check it out... And because he can guess who it is, he asks that he do it alone. The party seems confused, though, at his urging, begins to separate, instead checking out the people of Novey.

With that, Demiurge extends his wings, before flapping and flying away, soon arriving at the source, the mountain range he once fell asleep at. And there, sure enough, is Sophia. He asks her what's going on. Sophia, after chiding him for such a harsh welcome, says that she still has to congratulate him. When the world was thrust into despair, he was able to hoist out hope and set forth the seeds to a brighter future. She knows many Dragons even older than him that'd probably give up by now. Demiurge blushes and rubs at the back of his head. Sophia then says that she needs to explain something else to him.

He's been feeling it, right? The tiredness? The tension on his body? He may've smashed insurmountable odds, but he was still a young creature. He's gone through a lot of stress over a short amount of time, and that's on top of everything he's had to stomach to now. His body's struggling to put up a fight. This sensation is common among those that start out ruling. Demiurge asks what it means, to which she replies that he'll need to sleep soon. Demiurge blanches at that and asks if she's serious. Sophia nods, and Demiurge asks if she has some magic that can help him. Sophia, however, says that no matter how much physical healing she does, there's still the mind to carry the burden of what he's endured. He'll sleep whether he likes it or not, and if she pours some healing into him, then she might just end up burning him out.

Demiurge seems ready to argue, but in the end realizes that he can't. He probably needs a long rest. He asks her how long, to which she replies 500 years it usually takes to rest of damage like this. She reaches to him and magic pours from her as she analyzes him, before she determines that he'll probably have to sleep at the latest on the first. Demiurge takes that day in, and realizes that he has a short time to say goodbye. Sophia says that it may be a scary prospect, but at least this era can fade like a nightmare to him as he sees the fruits of his labor. She says that he's done so much already, and that it's time to clear any regrets he may have left.
----
Demiurge's returned to Novey, the party regrouping at the square after having walked around the town a bit. They see the Dragon appearing and group around. M'valy asks him where he's been, to which Demiurge learned a bit more about himself. Truth is, he's a bit new at being on his own on another world, but he's been told one more thing after they beat Amma. He'll have to rest soon, and he fears that he won't wake up for hundreds of years. The party's each mortified at the news. 

Demiurge says that he'll still be around for the coronation, but after that, he'll have to see this era off. The party each seems grim for now. M'valy then says that they should probably still see around the general place. Demiurge can check in with the people of Novey first off, and then they can head out towards the other settlements. Even Hullo's seemed to've calmed down, so they might be able to check it out. Dollim says that the people of Holix, after Amma's been taken care of, felt like they shouldn't stay around, so they headed out to Nokut where there aren't a lot of people around. 

Demiurge says that that might be nice, taking a tour of the world right now. So with that, players are able to check out the various locations of the world, them able to talk to M'valy at Novey in order to have the day move onto the next. A lot of this involves speaking with people you may've completed sidequests for, or other normal people all around.
*Novey - In this location, the people seem ecstatic. They're going to be the epicenter of the oncoming feral explosion, and everything's going to be better for it. They'll go down in history!
*Nokut - Nokut's in the early stages of production, and the people of Dolix are working on setting up a small village. While here, Dollim explains that she'll come here to work on leading, but when she's not, someone else will take control. Demiurge asks what'll happen when someone else finds this, they're probably still considered criminals, at least if someone can still smell the evil on them. Dollim says that that's why they're hiding, and says that they'll keep hidden and look for places to hide to keep themselves safe.
*Hullo - Hullo appears to be in a bit of upheaval. The guards here are cleaning up the debris and mess left over from the previous fight. The citizens there explain that they're trying to wrap up things in preparation for the upcoming coronation, and that the guards are trying to set up less active movements, so as to not waste energy. According to Gasha, they'll probably not be delivering meat for a while, at least not until there's a large amount of ferals in the world. Lata asks what'll happen to the devolved people, to which the guards sigh and say they don't really know. Gasha doesn't want them killing them... Right now, Gasha has men looking into potentially fixing the damage done to them, though that's likely not gonna happen.
*Ganna - The village Gant stood guard at and Petunia grew up in. The many people there are armored, wielding weapons of various sizes, and Gant even remarks that the surrounding clearing seems very empty; not a single bandit in sight. Sure enough, speaking with the villagers reveal that they have been staving off enemy attacks. However, the many people there remark that, despite how well they're doing, they're still more than happy to accept Gant back into their place if he ever needs it. Gant does remark he may want to retire over here, and Petunia says that she'd be happy to house him if he wishes.
*Faunk - The original settlement of the troop M'valy belonged to, far southwest of Gurah. Being there, there are plenty of people in attire and weaponry similar to M'valy himself, each seeming elated to see the stag. While there, M'valy says that he couldn't have imagined getting a greeting like this without Demiurge. The Dragon asks them what they'll do, to which the people there reply that they'll help to keep the ferals safe as well. Demiurge is grateful for their help, and considering how strong M'valy is, he's sure he can trust them.

Either way, the group returns back to Novey, and are ready to rest.

;Demi 30th

On this day, everyone wakes up. Everyone's stepping out and grouping in Novey. While there, Gorno says that tomorrow things are going to change. M'valy then says that after tomorrow, that'll also be when Demiurge has to leave. There's a silence among the group. M'valy speaks up, saying that that doesn't have to be a bad thing. Today's the day right before the new year, which means that today they should spend as much time together as possible. Demiurge says that he'd like that. The party seems excited about that, Lata saying that today's a great day to hang out.

Demiurge says he can fly them about anywhere, though M'valy interrupts, saying that perhaps today's a good day for a long walk. Gant says that's probably for the best, Demiurge's getting pretty tired right now. And so with that, the group takes a long trek around, going across the various long stretches players have gone through before, going through them to get from location to location. As they walk, Lata speaks up, saying that Demiurge's an older creature, correct? She asks him if he's seen everything back before nowadays. Demiurge says he has, and said that despite everything, he can see bits of the past in the modern world, which sort of makes the new stuff stick out.

Gorno asks him about some of the stuff he's seen, and so as they walk, he tells them about his journey, going so far as to describe the Monsters, the early vestiges of an old village. He was kind of surprised to see how far the village spread out into numerous little civilizations. He never imagined what everything would lead to... Each party member seems winded. They should've realized that he was so old, but to've seen that much... M'valy says that it is a little overwhelming. He can't imagine going through something like that...

They keep on walking, having remarked on the various party members' support links. M'valy's going to keep the future secure and protect the ferals, and Gorno agrees to work alongside him. Gant's going to see to it this devolutoin process can be reversed. Petunia, meanwhile, rubs up next to him and assures that they'll work together until at least his family is helped. Dollim says that she'll keep her old friends safe. Lata says that she'll try and keep close to the guards in order to make sure nothing like what Amma did happens again. 

Their walk eventually brings them near the mountain range, and they stop at it. Demiurge looks back towards the south, saying that that there is where he first saw intelligent people. From there, they spread out west before eventually getting north of this mountain range and settling on T'rere. At this point, M'valy asks how he feels about what all happened. The rest of the party also seems to be interested in learning what the divine creature thinks about the progress of mortal kind. Demiurge can say "I have many regrets" or "I feel so happy now".

Either way, the party understands. They decides to hike across the mountain range, before eventually coming upon the old settlement of T'rere. It's gotten pretty late, and here Demiurge says it's a good place to rest. They're not far from Hullo. The party agrees, and they settle in the various abandoned buildings, before sleeping, a few clearly antsy about tomorrow.

;Demi 31st

On this day, the group wakes up, an air of weight among each of them. Today, things'll change for everyone. The party can't even really bring themselves to speak, before Lata says that they should go and watch. The group agrees, and each decides to move out. They march out from T'rere to Hullo.
----
They make it to Hullo, where much of the crowd's gathering. And before them is Gasha standing at the stairs, him flanked by several guards. The many villagers linger at the foot and look up expectantly, there even being a few from far around, from Ganna, to Novey, and so on, there being no sign of Holix's people. The party's closing in, when one of the guards approach and tell Lata that Gasha asked for her to come close. The party's confused and Gant asks if they should come with, to which the cat says she'll trust them. With that, she follows the guards while the party looks up.

And up there, Gasha holds up a hand, the other guards holding up to command the citizens to quiet. From there, Gasha explains, saying that recently, a lot of chaos has erupted throughout the world, all of it centering around the reappearance of the Dragon. Amma's done all sorts of manic things in the process, and as he has, he's ended up unveiling his insanity to the rest of the world. He'd hoped that the lion had a plan in the end, but as things went on, he saw now that in the end, he was merely a selfish fool. Even as he took his life. 

Gasha says that the time's come to get a new ruler, and though under normal circumstances he would be, Gasha decides he can't accept. He's been too under Amma's thumb and fears that he'd just turn out to repeat his mistakes. Lata, meanwhile, has seen his issues quickly, and fought to undo them. As such, he chooses to hand control over to her. He brandishes one of the spears Amma once held, before holding it to the surprised cat. She carefully reaches towards it and holds it, Gasha telling her that many people trust her right now.

The lemur steps back and Lata holds the weapon, before raising it overhead, declaring that she'll lead the world to a better place! The many citizens cheer and clap, gleefully accepting the new ruler. The party, meanwhile, each shares a satisfied grin while the guards each bow. Demiurge looks over the lot of them. He sees Gant and Petunia holding hands, M'valy seeming really relaxed and clapping happily, Dollim nodding in appreciation, and even Gorno looking less tense. Demiurge feels calm, feeling a mighty weight lift off...
----
There's a celebration going on, and it goes on and on, though Demiurge himself doesn't feel like being too attached. He'd be vanishing, and he'd hate to draw attention away from Lata. Still, from afar he can see the lot of them congratulating them as much of the villagers laud her in. Demiurge, meanwhile, walks away from the gates of Hullo, the guards looking on curiously. Demiurge spares them a glance, before nodding, wishing them luck. With that, he spread his wings, and flew off, in the direction of the mountain range he'd been around for so long...

He flies up there, and eventually settles down on one of the peaks, him remarking to himself that he never would've gotten here when he was younger. He stretches out his limbs, before laying down over a patch of clean rock. He makes sure all of his limbs are splayed out, and as he did, he could see what looked like a fireworks show going on at Hullo. As he looks on, the player is given another set of options: "Goodbye" or "Good riddance". Whatever options he chooses, it matters primarily to him. He let out a big yawn, before shutting his jaw and going limp. With that, he sleeps. He'll sleep for a long time.

At this points, players will move onto [[#Minimal Era|Minimal Era]]
----
If players were felled before Novi 23rd, then they'll be forced to go onto the [[#Server Era|Server Era]]

===Server Era===
;???

Demiurge grumbles and groans, before climbing up and onto his feet. He rubs at his head and begins to recollect what all's happened, before remembering being felled. In worry, he scans around, seeing no sign of his party. He remarks to himself that 500 years can't have passed, not with a guy like that in power! He stands up and tries to calm himself down. He says that he can't say anything conclusive right now, he needs to get a handle on the situation. He looks around, as if expecting Sophia to appear. However there's no sign of her. He supposes that he'd better start looking himself. So, he decides he should get up from wherever he is, and look around wherever he's been. And wherever that is depends on how far in the story players have gone.
----
If they made it to Novey, Demiurge will check that place out and find the very dilapidated buildings and growth that's grown to a wild size, clearly unattended. Demiurge approaches, and finds a foul smell filling his nose. He covers up his nose and walks around, peeking into various open doorways while still covering. He asks for anyone, and in his search, can feel crunching beneath his feet. He looks down, and finds a bunch of bones crumbled beneath him. His eyes widen with worry and he searches the buildings, finding similar sights, bones left untouched for who knows how long.

He finds nobody at Novey, and decides to search elsewhere.
----
If they made it to Ganna, Demiurge will check the place out, and find similar going ons, with the foliage overgrown and a lack of people. He steps in and begins to search. Any time he opens up a house, he finds a terrible smell wafting out, him recoiling and trying to cover up his nose. He scans again, and finds bones inside. More bones, just signs of death as far as the buildings offer.

He soon comes to realize there's nothing for him to find here, and so he leaves and instead goes to the last remaining location.
----
Regardless of their previous project, in the end, they'll arrive at Hullo, what appeared to be the most populated place last Demiurge saw. Surely there's something going on there. He flies to the familiar location, the walled of area that he originally ran from. However, there's no sign of people on the walls protecting the place. He flies past the wall and looks out over the city, and finds the streets littered with bones. His eyes widen in horror, and he wearily lowers himself to the street.

He speaks out for anyone's attention, only to hear his voice echo out. He steps in a bit, and still finds no sign. He tries to be careful with where he steps, though he still crushes a few bones underfoot. He searches the buildings around, and even steps into that foreboding palace that Amma once stood in. However, there's no sign of any life anywhere. He soon steps out, feeling sick to his stomach. The sun's begun to set from his search, but a part of him still thinks he should keep looking. Maybe someone's out in the smaller villages?
----
He heads west from Hullo to try and find someone, flying over the valley from way back. He soon arrives at T'rere, and there, he finds... A house with a torch lit in front. His spirits raise, and he approaches. He makes it, the house relatively small, it being a single floor and probably having a few small rooms. He comes closer, and sees the door open up. Out comes a jackal an in ratty clothing, and with bandages over half his scalp, one over what looks to be his now half gone right arm, and bunches of bandages over his thighs. 

He sees the Dragon, and greets him. He introduces himself as '''Mada'''. Demiurge greets the jackal, and asks him if he's seen anyone. The jackal sighs and says there hasn't been another soul for a long time unfortunately. A long time ago, when ferals were said to be gone, the chief of Hullo tried to tide everyone over with substitutes, but that didn't last long. His family's said to explore the world, and found nothing. As far as he's led to believe, his family found the last bit of feral in this land, and stands as the only living people in the world.

Demiurge gives pause, though nervously laughs the notion off. He's sure someone's somewhere, it doesn't make sense for him to be the last guy here. Demiurge says that they should go search for someone, but Mada sighs. He says that it's getting late and he should rest. The jackal himself was waiting for tomorrow for a long time. Demiurge looks up at the sky, and notes at how late he is. He supposes he can rest. Mada begins to go inside, though Demiurge asks him if he can actually sleep with him out here. The jackal says that he won't be with him in the morning, but he can spend the night. Demiurge thinks that that's fine enough, and so he lays down, the jackal coming close and laying against him. With that, the Dragon sighs and begins to close his eyes, shedding a few tears he doesn't realize. 

;???

The morning sun beats down on Demiurge's face, and he begins to rise up. Sure enough, Mada's not at his side now. He approaches the house and can hear the sounds of chopping inside. Demiurge asks him what he's doing, to which he replies that it's something for later tonight. Demiurge says he can keep looking for others, to which the jackal says he can, but he should come back tonight.
----
Demiurge searches the various villages he remembers going to back in the Conservation Era. However, he finds that many of them either don't exist anymore, or offer much of the same. Still, not a single living soul to find, and only bone. He flies around for hours, only to find nothing. Night begins to come, and so he heads back to T'rere
----
He arrives back, and sees the jackal waiting for him. He comes inside, before coming out with strips of meat sated with what appears to be spices and some garnishes. Demiurge asks where he got that from, to which Mada explains that it's a gift from his family. Demiurge says he can't take it, to which Mada explains that they would've wanted him to have this. Demiurge gives pause and takes it up, before cautiously eating it. It does taste nice.

As he eats, he asks Mada where his family is. The jackal says that they've passed a long time ago. Demiurge gives pause and apologizes. Mada says that it's alright. A while ago, their family exhausted the ferals they had left, and by that point, they'd figured death would be soon. They made peace, and now he stands. Demiurge asks, before clarifying that he doesn't mean anything rude, why he stands here if they made peace. Mada says that they wanted someone to speak with the Dragon. Demiurge says that it's been nice talking, but tomorrow, he wants to keep looking. Mada says he can, but he still wants him to come around. Demiurge asks if he can sleep with him again, to which he replies that he'd be happy to, though the deal remains the same.

;???

The next day comes, and sure enough, Demiurge's alone in the morning. He searched the settlements before, so he figures he should look elsewhere. So, he decides to examine the less tamed portion of the world.
----
By now he's searching haphazardly, looking for any sign of someone. Unfortunately, he's scarcely even finding bones now. He just searches and searches, but finds nobody. As he does, something about the previous conversation didn't sit well with Demiurge. Another part of him feels guilty, leaving this guy alone. He thinks he should head back to chat, but he still needs to find someone. Unfortunately, it gets late again, so he has to go back.
----
Demiurge returns and sees the jackal waiting. Seeing him, the jackal steps inside with a noticeable hobble, before coming out with another dish. He hands it over, and Demiurge begins eating. The Mada leans back and as he eats, the Dragon's mind returns to the previous conversation. He asks the jackal when the ferals expired, to which the jackal explains that it happened a generation ago. That gives Demiurge an intense pause, and he asks if that's the case, then... where'd the meat come... from... He looks over Mada's form, and notices, from calf down, his left leg is gone.

Demiurge drops the meat and starts to gag, though Mada shushes him and gently strokes what bit of him he can. He says that there'll all animals anyways... Mada says that he's had to live this way for a long time now. His family realized the end of the world was coming, and their family was, at best, staving off the inevitable. So, his grandparents cast the last of the ferals off from the mountain range, and at that point, it was all their choice to end themselves, or to cling to something. And, well, his parents and brother and sister looked back to history, and realized that this'd be 500 years since the last time the Dragon appeared.

As such, they decided they had one last mission. They wanted to tell the Dragon goodbye. His grandparents were the first to fall, and that was when they were forced to... After that, the parents would grow old and had to sacrifice themselves for the cause. Then when it was him and his brother and his sister, they realized not all of them would make the date. So, they drew straws to decide who'd be predator, and who'd be prey. And now, he stands here. He says that the food he got came from those that'd accepted death already, and those that let it be their final purpose.

Demiurge is stunned silent, and Mada says that it hurts so much. He says that he felt more hope these past few days than he had all his life. He's so happy to've finally been able to see the Dragon. His family talked about the many blessings he'd given them, but he supposes that they kind of mangled it. Still, if this is the end, then he's grateful to've finally ended at this moment. Demiurge says that it can't be, though Mada hobbles into his home. Demiurge begs him to come out, to tell him this is just some twisted joke and that there're still ferals, that someone's out there to say there's still life on this world!

Mada hobbles out with a machete in hand, and an oddly blissful smile on his face. He holds the weapon up to his throat, and thanks the Demiurge for giving them a world to live on. He then asks if his final service to the world was good. Demiurge pauses, and can then say "It... was delicious..." or "..." To the former, he gives a genuine smile. To the latter, his expression drops to a frown. Then, the sound of sliding metal fills the air, before Mada collapses before Demiurge, the Dragon left to only stare as he realizes he just saw the last life in the world vanish.

He pauses...

He pauses...

Tears start pouring from him, and then he suddenly turns and hacks, before the sounds of his sobbing and vomiting fill the air. He's left hunched over and still crying, seeming desperate to upchuck anything left in him. However, as he's left there, he can hear the beating of wings nearby. he starts to straighten himself and looks, seeing Sophia. On weak legs he approaches, at which the Dragon extends a hand, telling him there's nothing left for him on this world. Demiurge only stares for a moment, before carefully bringing up a hand and grasping hers. With a tight grip, Sophia flies, carrying Demiurge with while he's left looking back at the lifeless world.
----
The two return to the Draconic Gardens, where Sophia positions them before a pair of chairs that have goblets of a wine in them. She tells the Dragon that his body should be able to handle this brew, and that he seems like he really needs it. Demiurge approaches one of the chairs wearily, before laying back on it and drinking, looking off at the horizon and seeing the world he'd spent hundreds of years on. Sophia tells Demiurge that these sort of things happen. 

No one's the best at their first go. There's hundreds of planets that lie with its population either dead or worse off. Just because he failed once, that doesn't mean he can't do well later. Demiurge is silent, and Sophia waits and waits. Eventually, she asks "Felt mortal, didn't you? Like one of them?" She explains that an important step in running a world is knowing when to distance oneself from the lower lifeforms. That means to know when to not hook your feelings into them as much he has been. That's a hard lesson to learn outright, but the more lives you see, the easier it gets to know when to stop minding them. There's still a pregnant pause.

Sophia reaches towards him, and magic flows into him. Demiurge begins to sit upright, and feels a brand new power fill him. He asks her what she did, to which she replies that she instilled in him a power other Dragons found useful. The previous power she granted wiped out life on the planet. This power she granted, however, allows him to destroy the planet itself. Demiurge asks her why she thinks he'd want that, to which she replies that she's seen a few Dragons with the desire to wipe out what they ended up making. The two look up at the planet, and Sophia explains that Dragons tend to either leave their past mistakes as a sort of reminder to keep themselves on the straight and narrow in the future, or they scrub that out of the infinite space like a stain. Demiurge has been personally affected by this planet, so the decision lies entirely on him whether this place stands or not. Besides, it's not like there's anyone on there that'd object.

With that, Demiurge looks towards the planet he stayed on for hundreds of years, and is clearly horrified yet contemplative. He thinks on what he should do, and players are given a choice. "Let it stay" or "Destroy it".
*'''Let it stay''' - Demiurge looks over it, still thinking of the pain it caused. However, despite this, he still has a lot of good memories tied to it. He admits to Sophia that he can't do it. The older Dragon comfortingly pats his shoulder. She says that he can lay back and relax for as long as he needs. Dragons don't need to go straight into another world if they don't want, and he can just calm himself down. With that, the two walk into the Draconic Gardens, and the credits roll as they march through the lavish Draconic Gardens to approach Demiurge's childhood home. Several Dragons on there see him pass and look on in worry. He's eventually led into a house, where he lies on a bed there and just shuts his eyes.
*'''Destroy it''' - Demiurge looks over the planet, still thinking of the pain it caused. Eventually, he decides that he doesn't want to look at it any more. The older Dragon comfortingly pats his shoulder and assures him that if he wishes, he can relax as long as he needs once he does this. No Dragon ever has to go straight into another world after dealing with one. Demiurge nods before stepping towards the edge of the Draconic Gardens. He begins to rear back, multi-color lights shining at his very core. This light seems to shine through him brightly, showing off the outline of his inside as the light travels up towards his throat. Tears pour down his cheeks as he looks at the world with a mixture of hate and sorrow, before he opens his mouth and sends a beam of Pure energy towards the planet. Credits begin to roll as the camera cuts down to the lifeless surface, showing the beam coming out from space before slamming onto the planet with a surface area comparable to Hullo's size. The surface cracks and the planet begins to shake. The mountain range is seen jostling and pieces of rock falling from it and crumbling down in chunks. Webs of cracks form across the surface, to the point where chunks of land begins to shift apart from each other to expose the magma under the crust. The planet shakes more and more as buildings are cast to the fissures and the mountains around the surface are soon shaven down to plains. The camera then cuts back to the Draconic Gardens, as the planet is seen splintering into small chunks, the lingering Pure magic on them eating the chunks up and leaving nothing left. With that, Demiurge closes his mouth and keeps on tearing up, before collapsing on the ground. Sophia gently hoists the bronze Dragon up, and walks into the Draconic Gardens with him as the game closes.
===Minimal Era===
;Jaunus 1st

Demiurge wakes up, though finds few changes in his physical body. He also doesn't have the ability to choose a job this era. He looks out over the mountain range. He can see T'rere from here, and notices that there are actually a few people there this time. He notices more general architecture, this time a road stretching from T'rere off in the direction of Hullo, even stretching towards Hafa, Gurrah, and this way towards the mountain range. Demiurge decides that he should go out and check out the new era.

So, he flies out, heading to T'rere, and while there, he can see plenty of corals keeping quite a few ferals in them. However, despite the size of the place, he notices quite a few less people than way back in the Conservation Era. And while there, the people in the village notice him, and wave at him excitedly. Demiurge says that this place was abandoned when he was last here. He asks what's happened. One of the villagers there, a butterfly boy, greets the Dragon before explaining that mom and dad told him when the ferals began to return, they decided here was a good place to keep, so people moved out here to keep them safe and growing. 

Demiurge understands and seems thankful for this. He then asks how the village's faring, to which the butterfly says that things've been going just swell. Demiurge nods, before walking through and checking out the streets. There are many people excited to see the Dragon, and many others that're going about their normal day. He can see a dedicated butcher shop and quite a few sheep and cows and other livestock. He seems satisfied with this place. He then exits T'rere before flying off towards the settlements.
----
He searches the various treetops, and can spy that some villages he remembers are no longer where they are, such as quite a few that offered sidequests. Even Ganna appears to've been dissolved, though near the general area is a far larger settlement where he can actually see a few people taking up arms and training. It seems that here the people are raised to become guards and either offer their services as mercenaries for other villages, go work for the chief directly, stand guard here, or live a more normal life. 

The place seems unassuming enough, though Demiurge does receive confirmation that this is Gant and Petunia's by a statue near the front of town. A plaque attached to it describes how they took up arms when no one else did, and that ended up changing the world. So for them, the people of '''Numerel''' will keep their strength up in case the need comes. Gant seems satisifed in this knowledge and flies away.
----
Faunk appears to be another settlement relatively faded, though its people were stated to've spent time guarding the ferals, so that didn't seem too worrying. Novey appears to've lived, and it honestly appears largely unchanged, saved for a larger amount of crops than before. It was always a fairly humble place, so Demiurge supposes he shouldn't have expected that big a change. So, he flies off.
----
He goes there, and finds the general area far more humble than before. The many stone structures and tall buildings are each torn down to smaller buildings, though there are still a few guards and cannons in the general vicinity. It also has a fairly big hut with a shining emblem on it, signifying a chief, at least as far as Demiurge recalls. He arrives, and is greeted by the waving of the guards there. He greets them each with a wave, though clearly seems a little cautious around them. He also notices a lack of citizens around here. Sure there are still a few, but it doesn't appear to be nearly the bustling settlement it was back in the day.

He approaches the chief hut, the castle stripped down to around three times the size of the average house. Stepping out from it comes a fox lady appearing lithe and agile, as well as holding the famous spear passed down throughout the generations of chiefs. At her side is, as opposed to the usual lemur helper, a monkey guy with a whip at his side. She sees the Dragon and recognizes him, remarking him as the shaper of history and the one that helped guide their kind through darkness and despair. Demiurge rubs at the back of his head self consciously and says that he only did what he had to. 

The fox says that she's being a bit too excited and apologizes. She calls herself '''Chief Noxia''', while her servant is '''Callk'''. Demiurge says that he hasn't been able to look at the world for a while, so he'd like to know what's been going on while he rested. Noxia says that there's been a lot of changes, though it hasn't exactly been an easy ride. Demiurge's expression falls at that and he rubs at his shoulder, asking how bad it was. She assures that it was nothing as terrible as with Amma.

She explains that way back, Chief Lata took control and had led a long and arduous process to undo Amma's effects while ordering her guards to protect the ferals for what should've been a long time. In the meantime, the people would have to rely only on whatever crops they could cultivate, as Lata outright illegalized the consumption of the devolved and stamped the whole process outright. Unfortunately, many still starved, though there was a mysterious group called Holix that'd apparently felt the need to help. No one knew where, but they provided meat to ailing societies to help tide them over, this unknown tribe keeping on with this process until a couple generations later, where ferals became a larger breed.

It was not a perfect process. Those devolved were never able to recover, and instead would be brought into a memorial to honor them. Meanwhile, the rest of the world would suffer great losses. It's said the population fell by 18%, but a few generations back, they've been able to go on an incline. Hearing that, Demiurge feels solace, though ultimately it sounds like things are working out. He asks about Hullo. Noxia explains that the setting itself wasn't the best for housing ferals, so the material was transferred to create easier means of transportation between peoples while the location itself stands primarily as the main quarters of the leader of the world and their guards. The guards go about to monitor the people of the world and help with the transportation of consumables and staving off bandits.

Demiurge supposes that things seem to be working out for the better, before standing up. He asks if she's happy with the way things are, and she says that ultimately, she can't be upset. As sad as the past was, she grew up in a fairly safe world with a system that does help a lot of people. Demiurge is thankful that she's grateful. He then sees a beam of magic off in the distance, a beam of Pure magic like way before. He seems surprised at it, and turns to the fox. He tells her that he's needed elsewhere for a bit, and asks that she keeps the peace. Noxia says she will, before the Dragon steps away, and flies. 
----
He flies towards the location, it bringing him way, way back towards what was the Broisis Plains, way back where he met the first intelligent people of the world, and way back where his adventure started. And there, he sees Sophia. He approaches wearily, and asks her what's going on. He doesn't feel tired, he pretty much just woke up. However, Sophia says that the Draconic Gardens are near. The two of them can fly onto it and have a moment together, as two divine beings on a realm that really understands the two of them.

She says that after everything he's been through, she feels he deserves a moment away from the mortal plain. Even when there is goodness, there is still a sense of dread hiding here or there. On the Gardens, they can sit back and relax and act as if those pains are a mere memory. Demiurge asks if she intends him to abandon them, though she waves off the assumption, saying that's not what she's saying at all. She says that Demiurge can return even today, but for now... She says that it's been a while since they've been able to hang out as caretaker and child as opposed to student and teacher. She says she'd really like the chance to just talk. Demiurge gives pause and scans around, taking stock of the world around.

He turns back to Sophia. The Pale Dragon offers her hand to him, and he takes it. The two spread their wings, and begin to fly, soaring off and off. As they lift, Demiurge looks behind to see the world he's tended to for so long seem to fade to the background as the two ascend towards the heavens. They fly more and more, before eventually, they arrive before the monumental structure of the '''Draconic Gardens'''.
----
The two fly up and make it onto the lip of the grand platform. And where they stand, there's a pair of stone lounge chairs made big enough for the two of them, between them a small stone stool with goblets full of wine on either side. Sophia approaches one chair and recommends that Demiurge take the other seat. The bronze Dragon looked over the Gardens, feeling... overwhelmed. He thinks to himself how long ago he's been away from this realm, and how alien it all looks despite him growing up in it. Sophia somewhat impatiently taps the other lounge chair, rocking Demiurge free from his spell and prompting him to sit where she motioned.

Demiurge took steps towards it, and as he does, he feels off. He feels like these steps should be heavier or that he should have a bigger feeling than now, but he feels some slight dissociation. He walks more and more, before sitting back on the empty chair, now looking out at the planet he was just on. And for a bit, he can just stare, unaware of the slight slurping coming from Sophia as she's taken her goblet. She notices him staring, and remarks that it's quite a sight, that for as long as one remains on their planet, especially if they're young, it gets easy to lose the big picture. 

She asks him if a part of him felt among them, or if he understood he was so much greater than them the whole time. Players can answer "I felt like one of them" or "I was divine, start and end". To the former, she says that that's also common in young ones, while saying that putting yourself among the lot of them makes it harder to see the bigger picture, because you limit yourself to the common. To the latter, she says that that's often been a hard part for young people: if they always consider themselves greater than the rest, then it'd be harder to care for the lot of them, because it becomes so much harder to empathize. 

She then says that he can have a drink if he wishes, his body should be able to handle it. Demiurge seems suddenly aware of the goblet beside him, and so he reaches for it, before beginning to drink. The two drink more and more, before Sophia continues. She says that he probably realizes why he's here. He's gone through so much and worked through an era that could make or break their world. So, having gone through as much as he has, and now seeing what's become of it, she needs to ask: How does he feel about the world he's made? Demiurge gives pause, and lowers the goblet, him looking down at it in consideration, an unreadable expression on his face.

Players have the choice to say "...I love it" or "...I hate it". If he says the former, he begins to say it, and a smile begins to dress his face. He says that he's seen a lot of the bad things this world can bring it, but... but he knows that world can be good, he saw it. And, even with the pain brought on, it looks like everything's going to be better because of it. If he says the latter, he starts to talk, and tears begin to drip down his cheeks. He says that he saw bad things, but he never imagined he'd ever see them turn so awful, that they'd turn the world into what it was. He chokes a bit, struggling to hold the goblet, and hunches over as he sobs, Sophia gently clasping his back.

After that, she says that the first times are always the roughest for the dears. It's something that usually gets better the more you do it. You usually know how to rule better, you usually know how to roll with the tragedies, and you usually know how to pull others out of it or to restart elsewhere. Demiurge asks how anyone's supposed to get over tragedies, to which Sophia explains that all mortals are finite, all suffering on the planets will be finite, while the Dragons are infinite. That's one of those cases where you have to learn to either be empathetic, or to remember your own divinity. And then, she says that she has one more question for him.

Dragons can go from planet to planet, free to start and stop life as they wish, or to let it go on without any divinity. She also warns that, given his age, she won't be terribly necessary in watching over him, so her visits to him will come less and less. So,  having seen everything he has, having done all he has, having endured as much as he has, she tells him that no one would begrudge him for leaving them. So, she must ask him: Does he wish to continue on their planet? There's a pregnant pause as Demiurge contemplates, him statue still as he looks at the planet he'd been on for hundreds of years. And so, the player has two options: "I want to stay" or "I want to leave".
*At the former, he decides that after everything, no matter how he feels, he should continue to see them on. If players say they love the world, he declares that he'd love to be a part of whatever else they do. If players say the hate the world, Demiurge says that he needs to keep them safe. Sophia nods in understanding. As such, she stands up and says she understands. Demiurge stands up, and Sophia tells him to be careful and keep a broad mind. Demiurge suddenly goes forwards to hug her, Sophia hugging him back. Demiurge thanks her for everything, the pale Dragon holding him tight. They then split and share a moment of nothingness, before Demiurge steps near the lip of the Draconic Gardens. He raises his wings, and then flies, going back down to the planet he's led to the modern era, boasting more knowledge and a greater understanding than he once had.
*To the latter, he decides that he can't take anymore. If players ay he loves the world, he decides they'd be better without him for a while. If players say he hates the world, after everything, he doesn't think he can take anymore, at least not now. Sophia says that that's perfectly fine. Sophia nods in understanding. He's free to relax on the Gardens for longer, and Demiurge brings his arms up, as if wanting to embrace her, and she hugs him. He hangs his head and Sophia walks into the Gardens, prompting Demiurge to follow. And she tells him not to worry, these things happen. Besides, the planet should live on well enough now. With that, Demiurge gives the planet one more look, before following Sophia into the gardens of paradise, resting quarters for divinity.

And with that, camera still on the planet, the credits roll.
==Research Era==
==Construction==
===Early===
;Jusis 12th

Demiurge steps forwards more and more, looking out across what 500 years has brought forth. And coming this way, he can see several more cabins, akin to what he saw way back during the Stone Age. However, each building appears to be far more heavily reinforced in comparison to those back then. He's downright surprised to see how many large buildings there are in comparison to what he saw way back when. So, he steps forwards, trying to get a read on the location. 

He approaches, and as he approaches the border of the area, someone steps out of one of the buildings, the person being a fox boy half Demiurge's size. He wears a beige tunic with a leather belt and a copper medallion hanging from his neck. He narrows his brow and tilts his head curiously, the Dragon tilting his head in turn. The fox begins to step back, though Demiurge can ask "What's your name?" or "Are you alright?" Either way, the fox's ears perk up, him remarking that the Monsters haven't shown any intelligence yet. Demiurge is curious, asking them about "Monsters". The fox, however, asks him to wait right here, he'll get someone.

Demiurge stands there and watches the fox run off, heading to one of the cabins, this one with the symbol of a bee on it. The door opens up, and out comes a large elephant lady, her standing twice his height. She's dressed in tiger-skin with small plates of metal around her joints and vital areas. The fox is holding her hand and guiding her forwards. She sees the winged individual, and furrows her brow. She comes closer, the fox excitedly telling her that this is the intelligent stranger he told her about. She thanks the boy and tells him to go back to his parents, she should speak with the new guy. The fox nods in understanding before rushing off, seeming just happy to do a good job.

The elephant approaches Demiurge, stroking her chin contemplatively. She says that a part of her thinks she's seen his general shape before, but she certainly hasn't seen anyone like him before today. Demiurge peeks over her shoulder towards the cabin she saw, and asks if that memory might have anything to do with a bee lady. Her eyes widen, and she asks if he means Deonsys. He says that he has worked with her, and she seems to take the information... before shrugging it off, saying that that doesn't make much sense. Deonsys lived hundreds of years ago. 

Demiurge swears he worked with her and the rest of her crew, though the elephant lady says that regardless of how valid his claims are, they should make sure he's familiarized with the town, don't want to surprise the citizens. First, though, she should introduce herself. She's '''Loonus''', leader of the town. She kind of does a lot of things around here. Demiurge introduces himself as Demiurge, and the two shake hands, the elephant's grip notably harder than the Dragon's. Here, she says that she can try to acquaint the Dragon with the villagers of '''Makeet''', it'll be a short bit until she has to go out on her usual material collecting.
----
The two head around town, going door to door. First is the cabin that the fox was at. Here, Loonus explains that the people around here have to group up in buildings at a time, it takes a lot to prepare the locations for defense against the monsters. Demiurge says that they don't designed for defense. Loonus says that there's a trick or two, but everyone in the village will need to be notified before she tries to demonstrate. Demiurge seems confused, though Loonus says that they'll press in. 

Past the first door, it appears like a fairly ordinary lobby, albeit now with a wooden flooring. However, Demiurge notices that a lot of the furniture appears to be built into the floor. They press forwards and Demiurge spies a hallway with two rooms adjacent. On one side is a kitchen area with a fire pit and several tables. At the end of the hall is what looks like a lever. On the other is several beds, all of which arranged into bunkbed style. There seem to be quite a few people resting on the beds, though many are out. The fox boy appears to be in here, though instead of lying in bed, he's messing with a coal black powder and small red tubes with wicks on them. Upon noticing the group, the fox's eyes widen and he scoops the stuff under the bed.

Loonus says that Demiurge's probably met this squirt, '''Menlee'''. At that the small guy stands up and gives a salute, affirming that he is Menlee of the Makeet village. Demiurge scans around and asks where everybody is. Loonus says that everyone's working in shifts. Some work after bedtime and before awakening hours, some spend between awakening hours and the evening, and some spend between the evening and after bedtime. So Demiurge asks if that means some are out now, to which Loonus replies that they are, out getting material. Demiurge glances towards Menlee curiously, and he replies that he's more than happy to work for the future of the people. Demiurge glances towards Loonus curiously, though the elephant assures she'll explain later. For now, she asks the Dragon to introduce himself. Demiurge does so, and those in the room right now greet back. Loonus asks the lot of them to spread word of the Dragon to those that return, and so, she and the Dragon heads out. Though as they do, Loonus tells the fox that he should be messing with his tools only under supervision, and outside of the cabin. The fox sweats nervously and tries to block her view of the underside of the bed.

Either way, she leads him out and they go cabin to cabin, meeting various other people and seeing similar construction among each area. Similar orders are given, and soon they're each out. Loonus looks skyward towards the sun, before remarking that they've spent a while just speaking. She says that she'll need to head out to gather material. Demiurge says that he can help. Loonus says that few've actually been willing to help her, so she appreciates it. She heads to the cabin with the bee symbol on it, before coming out. She's wielding a large hammer, it bearing a long shaft with a head with two blocks on either side. She says that they can walk and talk, clearly the boy has a lot he wants to know. With this, Loonus has oficially joined the party.
----
The two exit, going north of the village of Makeet. This way leads to the mountain range, where Loonus explains that they as a whole are gathering material for building the Greatest Structure Ever. Demiurge asks what that is, to which the Loonus explains that it's a strange device spoken of in the times of the Stone Age. Deonsys, one of the first Intelligent people, believed that the best course of action for their people is to develop the mightiest of structure, a sign that'd surely show that they're great. Demiurge asks what kind of structure, to which she described that Deonsys described a structure that reached past the trees, beyond the mountains, even past the clouds. It's like a big house, in that it'd let people go into it, but it can reach so high as to let any that see it know that '''they''' created it, and that '''they''' were here.

Of course, for that, they need a lot of material. So, she and the people of Makeet are preparing their own village for protection against the Monsters, and they're also gathering material and learning techniques to possibly put together a structure like that. So right now, they'll be working on metals or rocks for the building. The two step further, soon reaching the mountain range, where they're tasked with coming around the side of it to investigate a hole she's appeared to've driven into the side of it. They press in, and Demiurge watches as she utilizes magic and her hammer to drive into the mountain, her telling the Dragon to look out for any rock that looks different from the rest of the material.

They keep on working, when eventually, Demiurge points out a bit that looks silvery. So she changes direction and begins to beat into the direction Demiurge pointed out, beating into it and gathering material. After a long bit, she's put the bunch of silver bits into a sack, her grunting as she hoists it over her shoulder. She says that they should probably head back, it might be a bit late. They progress on the way out, when there's some snarling. Outside, there's a pair of feral wolves in a low stance, preparing for an attack. Loonus draws her hammer and tells Demiurge to get ready, this stuff's always a bit of an issue. With that, the duo fight, players able to see Loonus' magical ability with Fire and Earth, as well as plenty of self buffs and Smashing damage with her hammer. The fight's simple enough. After the fight, the wolves retreat. Loonus puts her hammer back, and says that they should have nothing more to worry about for now, they're not too far from Makeet. And so, back to Makeet they go with several pounds of silver.
----
They return, and time's passed. Some animals are returning, and others are heading out. Loonus remarks that they came in just in time for the shift change. Demiurge looks around, noticing various animals of various stages of life coming in and out, from child to adult. He raises a brow curiously and asks if the kids really participate. Loonus says that any able-bodied person should set the groundwork. If too few put in the work, then their plans for the future could be set back a currently un-documentable time. It's unfortunate, but necessary.

As they talk, one of the higher-ranking-looking members can be seen breaking from the group and approaching Loonus, curious. She's a bear lady with a red tunic and bits of metal only around her joints. She's also seen wielding a large straight sword that looks awfully heavy, seeming intent on felling a tree rather than tackling foes in normal combat. She remarks that she hasn't seen this straggler before, and asks who he is. Loonus remarks that she wouldn't have been in Makeet at the time so she wouldn't know. She steps aside so that the Dragon and the bear can stand before each other. She introduces the Dragon as Demiurge, a boy claiming to've existed in the Stone Age. And then she introduces the bear as '''Nastlaya''', the mistress of the woods and one of the Foremen.

Nastlaya gives a firm handshake, saying that she appreciates some new blood, though would prefer if she knew where he came from. Demiurge swears he's been telling the truth, and Loonus says that that's as much as she can get out of him. At the very least he seems willing to help. Nastlaya asks what shift he's taking, to which she replies that he seems willing to help with the foreman duties, so she supposes anytime she wishes him to aid. Demiurge says that he's not quite used to working with crowds on his own yet, so he supposes he's fine with that. Loonus says that Nastlaya will be a bit busy for the foreseeable future, but if she shifts around the works schedule then she should be able to work alongside him. Demiurge supposes he looks forwards to that, though remarks he should probably be resting his muscles a little. Nastlaya says that she has to do the same, and Loonus says she'll be bringing her earnings to the storeroom. 
----
Demiurge rests at the side of one of the cabins. He waits there and seems to massage at his body, feeling obviously tense from the work today. He waits and waits, when suddenly there's some banging from one of the cabins. He looks towards the source, and can see a raccoon man on the roof banging on a sheet of metal. The sound's echoing through Makeet and Demiurge is confused. As he watches, the bear from before approaches, realizing that he hadn't learned about that yet. That raccoon's the watch out for Monsters. Whenever it rings, everyone is to enter their cabins and either hide under the beds, or huddle against the back walls. Demiurge asks what she means, before saying that it's better to show.

So, the two rush in, and sure enough, the people inside the cabin are under the bunk beds, though a cougar guy did appear to be heading for the switch on the wall. However, Nastlaya tells him to hide under the beds, and they go back. The bear tells Demiurge to plant his back against the wall, and though confused, he does so. The bear then grabs the switch, before flipping it down. Suddenly, Demiurge feels a rumbling beneath. At this, the cabins each rumble. The camera focuses on geaer-like wheels on the bottoms of the houses, the teeth grinding into the tracks attached. And then, the cabins each plunge back, out of the clearing and out into the foliage, which seem to spread away in time for the structures to be hidden within.

Demiurge is shaken, and soon finds himself falling to his knees, alarmed. He begins to ask what that was, though Nastlaya holds his shoulder and shushes him. They hold still, though Demiurge crawls tentatively towards the front. The closer he gets, he can soon pick up the noises of stomping. The earth seems to shake, and seems real close. However, it passes soon enough, seeming to've gone just as soon as it came. Demiurge asks what that was, to which the bear replies that that's one of the Monsters. They've been dotting the landscape and occasionally been passing through. They've however been able to develop this system to yank them out of their path, and as long as they stay hidden, they don't have to worry.

Demiurge says that they surely don't have to keep hiding, they need to beat that thing away. Nastlaya says that they'd love to, but the Monsters are awfully dangerous. They'll need a lot of material before they stand a chance, and a lot of material needs to go towards the '''Skybreaking Structure''' anyways. For now, this is the best that they can do.
----
Soon the Monster passes, and with another flick of the switch, the cabins are wheeled back in. Nastlaya leads him out and says that he should speak with Loonus about sleeping arrangements. He says that that sounds nice, and he says he can't wait to hang out with the bear more. Nastlaya nods back, and the two split. Demiurge and the bear approaches the cabin with the bee symbol on it, and there is Loonus, waiting for them. Inside is the elephant, as well as a shark man in armor similar to Nastlaya, and having a pickaxe at his hip. Loonus says that this guy's the night foreman, and he'll be out to let the night shift work.

With that, the shark guy steps up and walks, noticing the Dragon. He says he hasn't met him, and introduces himself as '''Mongi'''. Demiurge shakes his hand, introducing himself as Demiurge. He says he's sure they'll get to know each other more, and Loonus affirms as much. Tomorrow the two of them and Demiurge will be going to uncharted territory to gather more material. The mountain range is looking a bit worse for wear. Mongi says that he's cool with that, and then goes to work, saying he should be back a short while after they wake up.

With that, Loonus says that there should be enough beds for Demiurge tonight. He's free to rest here for the duration of his stay in Makeet, and until they can properly find out where he comes from. Demiurge seems ready to argue, though a part of him realizes it'll just be more work. So, he heads into the cabin, towards an unoccupied bed, and rests.

;Jusis 13th

The next morning comes up, Loonus examining her weaponry and checking out some documents. Demiurge glances over her shoulder, spying a location akin to the various locations he explored back in the Stone Age. Loonus says that these locations were checked out a bit from the old people. They apparently had a Dragon among them, odd thing that, before it was felled during the fight with one of their most dangerous Monsters. Demiurge says that's him, and Loonus gives pause, before looking down north a little more.

She suggests they should probably investigate north of their current location, maybe they'll find more material in the more unexplored areas of the mountain. She pockets the map and says they should head out soon as Mongi appears. They head out, and after a bit of waiting, they see the former shift coming in, a gator man with a machete is seen leading the morning shift guys out to their job. Loonus says that now's a good time to get some work done. Mongi joins the party, and now players are prompted to head north on the mountain range.

Meanwhile, the fox boy from before is glancing at the party curiously, having returned from the night shift.
----
The three party members are required to head out northwards, going to the mountain range from before and going towards the previously unexplored territory. They go into the mountain range first, and the two have to go up. Going up, players will be forced to deal with feral creatures, from various wild cats to mountain goats and rams, and more. Fortunately, Loonus has high attack power and Mongi has the ability to tear down an enemy's defense. With their and Demiurge's combined powers, they should be able to deal with much of the foes on the first portion of the mountain.

They progress further and further, when they're approaching the first leg of the mountain. Loonus says that things're looking alright, but they shouldn't dally. Who knows what treacherous terrain they might face. Mongi says that they're pretty tough, they should be able to handle whatever this mountain has to throw at them. However, as they move, Loonus raises a brow and ushers the group to stop. She says that she heard something.

They look around more and more, Loonus telling them to group up. The three party members get back to back and scan around, weary about her warning. They look and look, when suddenly, a large monster leaps out from one of the ridges, which appears to be a fairly tall, scaled creature with what looks like forming feathers, curved toe claws, and a pair of arms that end in three grasping fingers. It slashes at the group, though Loonus is able to block the attack with the shaft of her hammer, and toss them away. Demiurge recognizes the Monster as one of those creatures from the Stone Age. Mongi says that they don't stand a chance and they should retreat, but Loonus points out that if they flee, they risk leading it back to Makeet. They need to face it now, or die trying! With that, players are forced to battle the '''Arkansaurus'''.

The fight's fairly tricky, the beast being resistant to the majority of the party's attacks, and responding with sharp slashes. The party tries to face it, though Mongi remarks that that thing's too tough. After surviving a few turns, a cutscene plays, showing each party member being driven back by a harsh tail swing. They're each panting and struggling to stand. The Monster, meanwhile, seems none the worse for wear. It stamps towards the party and flexes its digits, snarling and licking its lips. Demiurge says that they have to do something, that they can't let the Monster win. Mongi says that he's losing feeling in his body. Loonus begins to stand, when a young voice from the back tells them to cover their eyes. Loonus is confused and begins to glance back, when a small, cylindrical object flies through the air and to the Monster. Loonus goes to cover her eyes, Mongi and Demiurge following her lead, as the object explodes.

After the explosion, the party looks towards the beast, seeing that its clasping at its eyes, wobbling about in alarm. The party's confused, when another cylinder flies, now at their feet. It explodes, though instead of being a dangerous explosion, the party's surrounded by a restorative mist and feeling themselves able to stand up. They look back, and see the fox from before, Menlee, rushing in with a large pack at his side. Loonus is alarmed and asks what he's doing out here, to which he replies that he wanted to see what the new guy would do, when one of those Monsters popped up. Loonus asks what he's doing with those dangerous stuff, to which he replies he's been practicing. That first bomb he threw had minerals in it that bear remnants of Light magic in them, and that second bomb had minerals in it storing Restorative magic. He tended to test the stuff on some of the big boulders nearby to test the result.

As they talk, though, the Monster seems to've rubbed its eyes enough, before letting out a loud roar. Mongi says that they can discuss what this boy's done later, they have to fight. With that, each party member draws a weapon, including Menlee with one of his Explosives. With that, the fight with the '''Arkansaurus''' continues. The creature relies on its previous strategy of physical offense, dealing slashing damage and buffing its strength. However, with Menlee now in the party, players have the ability to Blind it and make it miss attacks, as well as perform a relatively low power Multi-party heal. He also has access to Light and Fire magic with this stuff, which manages to strike the gap in the Monster's defenses. After a bit of touch and go, the party's able to overwhelm the Monster, who can only huff and puff, before collapsing to its knees and flopping.

With it down, the party huffs and sheathes their weaponry, all attention turning towards Menlee. Mongi says that that was really dangerous, only people like foremen should be messing with equipment like that. Menlee says he knows, but he always thought that the explosives were super cool. He just wanted to try his hand at them, and began to get more and more into the construction. It's now gotten to the point where he believes he knows the insides and outsides of bombs. He swears that he knows enough about them to be safe now. At this point, Demiurge can either point out "He handled them well enough" or "He helped us with that Monster". Either way, Loonus sighs and supposes he's not too bad with that gear.

Mongi supposes that it's alright, but he says that if Menlee's going to keep using those bombs, he needs to use them in the wide open. The way he tosses them is way too dangerous for excavation. Menlee then says that in that case, he better be traveling with the group some more! Loonus says that if they're going to encounter more foes with physical ability like that, then Menlee might be helpful. Still, it'll mean they'll be working overtime to keep him safe. Menlee says that he'll be safe! And with that, Menlee officially joins the party. 

Meanwhile, Loonus says that they went through a bit of abuse today, so they should take some time to relax for now. Menlee says that that'll offer him a lot of time to stock up his explosives! With that, the party's forced to retreat from the Mountain Range and out to Makeet.
----
They're each back at Makeet. There, Loonus says that with everything, they still need to investigate that mountain for material. They weren't able to make a lot of progress earlier, but if the kid's going to tag along, they might have a slight chance. Menlee seems excited at that prospect and asks if that means he can use his bombs more. Loonus sighs and says only if he's careful. He seems to go for a jump, only to stop part way while commenting that he's really tired right now. Mongi agrees. They should all relax right now. Loonus, meanwhile, says that starting tomorrow, they'll still have to make it to the other side. So, starting tomorrow, they'll be trailing north.

;Jusis 14th - Jusis 24th

With this, following the night shift, the party's tasked with going through the mountain range, attempting to reach the other side, where they suspect more material will be available. As such, they're tasked with processing further through the range and towards the other end. Throughout, players are forced to battle more of the aforementioned enemies, as well as various sorts of birds and an ox. They progress more and more, until they soon reach the latter end of the mountain range. It's a fairly simple journey, players having to go up the trail, climb up cliffs, sometimes even utilize their various gear to smash bits of cliffs and rock to make traversal easier.

As they traverse, they may encounter brief roadblocks where, before progressing further, someone has to great an opening on the trail at Loonus' urging. She'll remark that if they're to get here later, then they'll have to create an easier path ahead. Mongi says that that makes sense, it'd be great to not have to deal with the creatures around here. Menlee remarks that it seems like an awful long path to walk for work. Loonus says that they don't have much other options if they're to keep on returning with good material. So now, before progressing deeper into the mountain, players will have to use Mongi's pickaxe or Menlee's explosives to open up paths to create shortcuts.

It isn't a hard task, and soon they're able to get near where the mountain slopes down to the ground. Loonus remarks that after all of that, it looks like they'll be able to wrap up their small mission. As they progress, however, they can see a bunch of birds begin to fly around in an oddly threatening pattern. The party rears back in concern, watching the flock wearily. Menlee asks what they're doing, to which Loonus says that it looks like they're trying to settle. The many birds come closer and closer, some darting from the flock to lash at the members, though they're able to block or evade. Mongi shouts that they're dangerous, and Loonus points out that if this flock's allowed to linger, then any worker that goes this way will be in trouble. She says that they have to clear them! With that, the party draws their weaponry, preparing to counter the '''Flocking Horde'''.

The Flock, thankfully, isn't too tough. They have very few resistances available to them, and Menlee's bombs are able to tear through the horde's HP pretty quickly. The one thing players have to worry about is the foe's extended movelist. They have access to quite a few low level skills, and, thanks to one of their skills, they're able to summon more allies to fight, and thus boost the horde. Thankfully, as long as players are quick to shave through its hp, they should be able to make the fight easier. The less hp the horde has, the less resources the horde has.

After taking down the last of the horde, is overwhelmed, and with that, the bunch of birds each fly off, having been overwhelmed by the party's efforts. With that, the group pants and pants, before sighing and sheathing their weaponry. Loonus congratulates the group for their efforts. After that, they now have access to a new section of the world, and access to new materials. Menlee jumps up excitedly at her tone, before Mongi points out that that means more work. Menlee gets more downtrodden. Either way, Loonus says that everyone did a great job today, so it's time to return back to the home so she can set up plans for the future. Once they gather the material, they'll need to decide where the Skybreaking Structure should be set. 

With that bit of news in their heads, the group should head back to relax. And then, people will be able to do whatever they wish for the duration of the time until the deadline.
----
;Jusis 25th

On this day, Demiurge and Loonus wake up, brushing their brow and progressing out of the cabin. Loonus says that the night shift should be wrapping up about now. Mongi said the other night that they'll be testing that new path and examining what else's at the other end of mountain range. Demiurge asks if they'll be ok, to which she replies that they should've made sure the path is clear by now. So they wait, when the night shift finally comes in.

Mongi's out front and the many people under his employ are marching, boasting quite a bit of material. The two party members sigh merrily and watch them march into their houses.
----
Later that day, Mongi comes out to meet the duo at the lead cabin. The shark says that the trail's looking perfectly fine. Their previous efforts seem to scare the many foes away, and they were able to reach the other side without worry. And on top of that, there were many a metal left there. Loonus says that it's great news, and this'll surely help lead their efforts in the future. Mongi cheers and seems to go for a high five, though the elephant says that they aren't ready to celebrate yet.

She says that before anything, they need to decide where they should place the foundation for the structure asap. They can relax for now, but they need to go out sometime. Demiurge asks how they'll go about this, to which Loonus says they'll have to scout out the general area to decide on what looks good, before deciding where they should set the base. For now, now's a good time to relax. Loonus says that Mongi should contact Menlee to tell him to relax a little. With that, the shark steps away and heads to the other cabin.

Loonus says that she's been arranging the organization a little bit, and she thinks that they'll be able to get another ally on their side for the next mission. Demiurge seems excited about that. Loonus says that the Dragon's been awfully helpful lately, and she asks them how excited he is to see this building get built. Demiurge can say "Very excited" or "Yes please". Loonus snickers and sighs, before saying that she wants to admit something. Truth be told, she's not going to live long enough to see this thing at full height. Truth be told, probably no one currently alive will see it built all the way. Demiurge says that that's not a good thought, though Loonus says she is optimistic, but she doesn't want to set too high a bar.

Much of the modern tech they have took a long time to create, and that's before they got into steelwork. Right now, they can only hope to set the seeds for future generations to make something better. Demiurge then asks if she fears that, then is there a point? Loonus says that even if they won't see the structure at full height, they'll all be a part of it in a way. Civilization can't be built by a single person, so she'll be able to die happy knowing that when someone looks at the structure, that means they look at her work as well as everyone's in this time. Just as today's people come from the old intelligentsia and their students. She tells the Dragon to remember that as he works. No matter how small he feels his efforts are, it'll all add to something bigger. She pats him on the shoulder, before going elsewhere, Demiurge giving pause.
===Medium===
Loonus says that she's going to arrange times and recommends that Demiurge check up on Mongi and Menlee in the night shift cabin. The two separate, and Demiurge goes to the appropriate cabin, where he sees Mongi sitting back on a chair and sighing deeply. Demiurge asks how he is, though he says he's just relaxing. He knows it's part of the job, but it's still tiring. He wipes his brow and says that everyone gets stronger for it though, so thankfully he's prepared for the fights ahead. He says that he saw Menlee go out back.

Demiurge steps out and heads towards the trees out back, where he can see the young fox messing with some more of his bombs and some material. Demiurge greets the fox, prompting him to greet him in turn. Demiurge asks him what he's doing working on the bombs out here when he saw him working on them indoors way back when. Menlee explains that the parts he's working with are especially bad for indoors, which has Demiurge begin to question what explosive components are or aren't dangerous indoors. However, Menlee is quick to interrupt, pointing out that he's working on stink bombs now, and if anything goes wrong, the cabin'll be terrible for a currently unknown amount of time. Demiurge winces and supposes that's better out here than in there.

He works on the bombs and fills the casings with some stuff that he says harbors some Earth magic in it. Demiurge says that he's awfully smart with that stuff, and asks how he became so knowledgeable on the way these explosives work. Menlee says that it's been quite a bit of experimentation. During breaks he saw foremen Nastlaya and Dobi, the latter of which Demiurge doesn't know of, causing some large boom out in the woods, and at that he got curious. He began to check out the stuff, and apparently Dobi would offer him a bit of help after a while of hounding him. It's been a bit of combining stuff for cool effects and keeping it away.

He takes the bomb he completed before lighting it, and rolling it into the bunch of trees. He hides behind one of the nearby trees, Demiurge hiding behind another one, and they hear the explosion. He then carefully steps out from cover and cautiously approaches, before reeling back and covering his nose, remarking that it's way too effective. Demiurge says that he should probably get away, and Menlee understands. He'll keep on working.
----
The Dragon returns back to Loonus' cabin, and there, he notices her alongside Nastlaya, and a large boar girl with a set of what seems to be weaponized scissors pinned to her back. Loonus realizes that the two never met, and thus introduces Demiurge to Dobi, and vice versa. She greets the Dragon and Demiurge waves at her. Loonus says this is the remaining foreman, and these ladies will be involved in upcoming missions, she suspects. Things could get really tricky if they're not careful while they're establishing a good space for the structure. As such, she's rotating the work a little. One day Nastlaya runs the night shift, one day Dobi runs the night shift, and one day Mongi will. That means sometimes foremen won't be able to aid, though the ones there should be able to help them out.

Dobi salutes and says she looks forwards to working on the field. She's been updated on the current situation, and as such will put her all into working out. Nastlaya says that they'll update Mongi soon, but Loonus says that they change will come into place in about three days, just to make sure everything's good. As they explain, Demiurge realizes something. Mongi's come back from his shift, but the other two foremen are here. So then, who's working them? Loonus says that they're currently on break so that she can properly arrange the circumstances. Either way, it's starting to get a little late, so everyone should fan out, and those that're working tomorrow should get to bed soon.

So, knowing who might be joining the party, and knowing about the rotating party, Demiurge is prompted to go to bed.

;Jusis 26th - 28th

From here on, players are able to spend three days basically relaxing. They can either raise bonds, or head out to grow their power out in the surrounding field, and they can take some sidequests. Eventually, the 28th will pass, and they'll be able to go to bed once more.

On this night, Menlee and other people are about to head out, though Mongi motions them to stop. He says that shifts are changing a little bit. They'll be working morning tomorrow. At that, the other people would begin to head back in.

;Jusis 29th

Demiurge wakes up and climbs out of bed, seeing Loonus up and ready. She says that today, they'll work with Nastlaya, while Mongi and Dobi will be busy. Demiurge points out that Menlee was with Mongi's group, and Loonus assures him that she accounted for that. They step out and through the front door, where they see Nastlaya before her, and beside her is a feral bear with a bit of armor on it. Demiurge asks who that is, to which Nastlaya says that this here's '''Zub''', a favored creature among the shift. The many people there like petting the little guy, and it can help fight off some smaller guys, and notify when something dangerous is nearby. He won't be around when she's not, but he'll have to do.

Demiurge thinks that sounds nice, and goes to pet him. The bear leaned into his hand in response. Loonus says that they'll have to keep the bear safe. For now, they have a mission. There're two kinds of locations they can put it: somewhere high, or a straight plain. The mountains are high, but the mountain requires lots of work to make sure the base is nice and secure. The plains would be easier, but that'd require more work to make it higher. Nastlaya supposes that if they've already gone to the mountain, they should go check the higher portions of it. As such, the group heads out to the appropriate location. 
----
Here, players are prompted to head up the mountain range, able to utilize the short cuts they made in order to go up. Nastlaya wields intense cutting power and the ability to wield Electric magic, while the bear manages to be fairly tanky while also able to apply restoration magic, also able to wield Cosmic magic. They move up through the trail, and Demiurge remarks that they hadn't actually gone too high up, more interested in going across instead of up. Nastlaya then says that the tougher kinds of creatures will be up there, and suggests they should be careful. 

So, they progress up the trail, forced to utilize their combined efforts to create openings up the trail so they can head up. Up and up they go, soon progressing up to the summit of the mountain range. And once up there, they have the chance to look over the general location. Looking from here, Demiurge can see the vast, green landscape in all directions, Nastlaya giving a whistle of approval. As they look, Demiurge can spy Makeet, and almost see the full trails of missing trees from the location outwards. Nastlaya looks where Demiurge is looking, and points out the trail, remarking that it looks like their people are already making a visible mark on the world. Loonus, however, says that they're etching a mark, the right way to live is to '''create''' a mark, not to destroy. Still, she's deciding on the area. The mountain range seems a little small...

Demiurge looks off to the horizon, and sees an even bigger mountain off to the south. Looking off to it, Loonus seems to frame the location between her fingers, before nodding. She says that it looks far smoother, and probably easier to traverse in comparison to this range. However, it is awfully far away, looks like. Still, they have to decide on the appropriate location. For now, though, they should head back now that they've decided this mountain range isn't sufficient. 

So, they head back.
----
They return to the Makeet, each a little tired. And when they arrive, Mongi and crew returns, and Dobi's crew are heading out. Loonus says that Dobi should be back tomorrow, and that'll be the time for them to look out to plains for appropriate locations. They need flat ground, plenty of space, and hopefully away from feral trails. For now, though, they should relax after their long trek. 

;Jusis 30th

This morning, Demiurge wakes up, and Loonus is, of course, waiting for him. She says that today, they'll be working with Dobi, and with her ally. Nastlaya's working the morning, Dobi's expected to work when they return, and Mongi will work the night shift, which means they'll go back to working wit him and Menlee tomorrow. The Dragon says that that sounds nice, and says that he hopes they'll work together well. They through the door, and see the boar lady, and beside her is a smaller sheep lady with a pike on her back. Dobi introduces the smaller lady as '''Mon''', and she's a really good defender and very magically gifted. Mon gives a curtsy, saying that she hopes to help out here. Dobi says she's great, and Loonus says that they'll do great things alongside her. 

Demiurge says that she looks forwards to working with Mon, though the sheep says that she's here for business, and Demiurge'd better not hold them down. The Dragon seems kinda hurt and reels back, rubbing the back of his head. Dobi admits that she's not exactly the warmest person, but she's very helpful. Loonus, meanwhile, says that they'll need to head out soon. The elephant says that everyone will have to be careful, they're all heading out for large plains and flat lands and something that seems out of the path of other creatures.
----
With this, the player's prompted to head out of Makeet and through the southern lands. However, attempting to head west will have Loonus stop them, saying that that way's where Monsters lay. They should stay away from that location. They're then prompted to head eastwards instead.

Dobi herself is a physical-oriented character that deals high damage and wields self buffs and debuffs. Mon, meanwhile, is a highly magical warrior, able to use water magic and highly effective retoractive magic. The former's fairly weak magic-wise, and the latter's fairly weak in terms of physicality. However, they're still pretty dangerous, and must keep on going forwards. Eventually, they make it to the '''Wild Lands''' east from the trail into Makeet. The Wild Lands are a set of large plains that have various creatures going around, sparse patches of trees and ponds.

Demiurge asks if this place looks alright, though Loonus says that this won't do. This is the source of a lot of movement of ferals. Dobi then says that they'll have to head deeper in and look for areas that're better for their workspace. Mon seems to visibly roll her eyes and say this kind of land is precisely what the boss said they shouldn't utilize. Either way, Loonus says that they should keep moving. And with that, players move deeper into the Wild Lands.

They progress more and more, and as they do, Demiurge says that this might not be their best course of action. There's plenty of ferals around the general location, and that they might have to go far off to try and find something that could be useful for them. Dobi admits that it does seem unlikely, there're still plenty of Monsters and other ferals around, and they'd probably have to scour a lot of land to try and get at land that'd look appropriate. Loonus, however, says that they still have to look. So, they keep looking around the Wild Lands and through locations adjacent from it. And as they look, they eventually see a patch of woods that empties out into an open field. From here, Loonus says that the trees look fairly un-obstructed, and there don't appear to be signs of ferals in the local area. 

The other two look around, and think that this area looks like it could useful. At that, Demiurge asks if it's that simple, if they just solved the issue. However, Mon says that that's not all. They still need to plot out the general framework, they need to create a proper channel for the material they'll transfer, and they still need to make sure the location's secure from any other creatures. Loonus says she's right, but says that this is still a useful piece of work. Now's a good amount of work for what they did, and now they should head back. 
----
With that, they return to Makeet, where Nastlaya's returning from her shift, and Dobi's getting ready to head out. From here, Loonus explains to Demiurge that they've acquired very important information for the future today. But for now, they have to make some important decisions. They can use the night to think on what they can do. They'll have to decide on whether they'll make way to the mountain, or whether they'll place their foundation right outside the Wild Lands. With that, they're free to sleep.

;Iuli 1st

On this day, Loonus says that they'll be back to working alongside Mongi. They'll be briefing him on what they'd learned, and then they'll decide where they'll set the foundations of the oncoming structure. She warns that this will be an irreversible decision, as once they set the location, they need to work on the foundation, maintain supply lines, and keep on building up the structure. They can have it either really close to home but take longer to complete, or they can put it farther from home but likely create a taller structure that way. Neither's an easy choice, but they'll have to make it soon. With that, she heads out, while Demiurge gives pause. 

He supposed he knew this decision was coming, but still... He has to make a choice, and right now it doesn't seem like there's an explicitly correct path to take. He should be better at making choices like this, but instead, he's confused. He ponders over the choices, before progressing out and following the elephant's lead. And outside, he sees Loonus speaking with Mongi and Menlee. They see Demiurge and waves him over. Once there, Mongi says that they were told everything. Loonus hasn't decided yet apparently, and according to her, her other foremen are fairly undecided. So, the decision apparently lies on Demiurge's shoulders. 

With that, the Dragon realizes that there's no going forwards unless he decides for them. So, he has to choose.
*'''To the Mountain''' - Ultimately, Demiurge decides that their best route is to go build the structure on that mountain. Hearing that, the elephant says that that sounds good, and Menlee seems to sulk at the news that they'll have to go far. Mongi says that sacrifices are needed for the future.
*'''To the Wild Lands''' - Ultimately, Demiurge decides that it'd be better to build the structure outside the Wild Lands. Menlee seems cheerful at the news that they'll be building so close to home, and Mongi says that they won't even have to worry about extending supply lines at this rate!

Either way, Loonus says that they've decided on the route. From here on, their efforts are all in an attempt to prepare the structure.

And from here on out, players will have to be mindful of what days they advance their journey on. The shifts are still rotating, so some days you'll have Mongi and Menlee, some days you'll have Nastlaya and Zub, some days you'll have Dobi and Mon. Mind their strengths as you go out on your journey.
====To the Mountain====
;Iuli 1st - Iuli 15th

In this route, the player is first tasked with progressing from Makeet to the far off mountain. This means that first they need to scout out the path towards the mountain, and hopefully be able to examine the peeks. It won't be an easy trail, but it is necessary for their goals. So with this, they're tasked with heading out, initially heading in the direction of the mountain range, but having to instead go southeast in the direction of that large mountain.

And so, they press onwards, having to traverse the long trail. Along the way, they'll encounter some slightly stronger creatures and frequently reach checkpoints so as to make fast travel into and out easier. The trail itself is fairly straightforward, and players merely need to be weary of the creatures on the way. Whenever the reach a checkpoint, Loonus will prompt the group to take care of monster in the general area. Eventually, though, they make it to the shadow of the massive mountain. 

Mongi/Nastlaya/Dobi remark that it's so much more daunting/insurmountable/big (in that order) way up close. Loonus looks on, and spies a defined trail in the mountain. She tells the group that they should be careful, it looks like something's been making its home in the area. The group readies their weaponry as they approach, but before they progress up the trail, the player is prompted to say whether or not they wish to progressing. Choosing to allows them to go up the trail. As they do...
*Menlee will wander forwards a bit, clearly a little weary but wanting to look brave. Mongi, meanwhile, will come forwards to protectively hold him back and says that he swears he feels some awful presence
*Zub will go forwards, and begin to sniff at the air. Nastlaya prompts the rest of the group to stop and looks ahead at the feral, who sniffs and sniffs, beginning to orient himself in a specific direction
*Mon and Dobi will go forwards. As they do, the two of them begin to feel an odd sensation. The two faced each other, and Dobi leans down so she can pick up the sheep lady. She scans around, before focusing on a direction

Suddenly, from the upper slope, a bunch of Monsters rush forwards, which Demiurge recognizes as raptors, though these ones seem to bear bright white scales that seem to blend in to the slopes. Loonus shouts that monsters block them, and says they need to fight. The party each draws their weapon, and prepares to fight the '''Snow Raptors'''. 

This fight is a little tricky, and players have to deal with several individual units that fill out previously beaten raptors, as opposed to a horde fight. Some of the creatures will use skills to make them untargetable, some are able to utilize freezing magic, and some are able to deal painful physical blows. However, players should be able to handle them well enough. By now players should be able to utilize Menlee's Smell skills, Zub's defensive powers, and Dobi's fiery skills to wear down their numbers and overwhelm them. With the final one beaten, the creature's all lie in a heap, and the party sheathes their weaponry. 

Loonus says she hadn't expected Monsters to be this far from civilization. Demiurge says he's dealt with creatures like that before, but he hadn't seen any of them with a specific elemental affinity like that. The elephant then says that if he's telling the truth about his origins, then maybe he's seen early stages of these Monsters, while these are the ones grown. They've had an awful lot of time growing, and anyone knows grownups are stronger than their earlier stages. If Menlee's present, he'll silently pout. Either way, if they encountered those up here, then they need to be careful pressing onwards. They need to press onwards and hopefully investigate the summit.
----
The group goes up more and more. The path up is pretty tricky, especially with the snow around. Throughout the journey, some strange creature overhead will kick up a storm and mess up the path ahead by creating thick walls of snow. However, players should be able to maneuver around the area in order to get around the walls and knock them down from the back. Eventually, they're able to get to the 3/4 mark, Loonus remarking that it really sucks to go from the heat of summer to this chill. Demiurge admits the same, but is sure that they should make it, and Loonus understands that. However, as they try to press on, they hear a growl up ahead. 

Stalking across the snow ahead is a boulder-sized dinosaur with bits of white fur growing on it, as well as claws as long as swords. It eyes up the group and approaches, snarling. The party, meanwhile, draws their weaponry. Loonus says that they won't be able to go ahead without beating this thing. Demiurge says that they can do this, that they're strong and can overcome this creature. Loonus says he's right, that as long as they fight for the future, nothing will beat them! With this, the Monster lunges at the party, and players are forced to fight the '''Chilly Therizinosaurus'''.

The Monster is speedy and split between physical and magical damage. The creature tries to boost its evasion and critical hit chances, and whenever it does the latter, it'll attempt physical strikes. Otherwise, it tends to utilize aoe water magic skills to damage them. Players should be careful, because it has a skill that inflicts Freeze, which makes those inflicted more vulnerable to physical attacks. Work towards limiting its chances to hit, and utilize fire magic to slip past its defenses. Fortunately, players should be able to fell the Monster soon enough. 

Overwhelmed, the Monster stumbles and groans. It tries to prop itself up and bellow out one last utterance of rebellion, only to wheeze out a groan and fall over. The party, panting from all of the effort, sheathes their weaponry before flopping down, panting. Demiurge says that the creatures on this side of the world are nothing to sneeze at. Loonus realizes that, though she feels like they've just made it through the worst of things. That Monster must've been annoying them through the whole journey up, so it must've made its home up here. But thanks to their efforts, it's all gone.

Loonus says they can probably set up base here, and return home. They've been through an awful lot, and they've established a route towards the upper regions of the mountain. They can set up the measurements for the location on a later date, but for now they should recover. They dealt with an awful lot on their way up, so they should work on the base of the tower later. The rest of the party seems elated at that idea, and so, they return home.

;Iuli 16th

On this day, everyone's meeting back up. Dobi and Mon are now meeting up with Loonus while the others are working. There, the elephant congratulates all workers. While everyone's gathering supplies, they've all been able to secure the mountain. And now, it'll be their job to prepare the base. Dobi laughs merrily and says she's glad to hear this. The future's looking awfully bright! Mon agrees that it sounds nice, but asks about setting the base. The summit's not a flat surface.

Loonus says that that'll be the next mission. Now that they've got their route, they'll first have to map the place out to establish proper positions. The structure's gonna rest on the uppermost part of the mountain, but to make sure it stays upright, they're going to have to establish "anchors" around the mountain. But to do that, they need both a good amount of distance, and to know where to set the weights to maximize the devices to prop up the structure. 

Mon nods in understanding, and Dobi is excited to get on this. One day this structure is going to stand tall, and they'll be able to see the whole world from on top of it. Loonus nods and says that this journey will take a while. Which is why for the next couple of days, they'll do some relaxing while she makes sure to set up the manuscripts for the structure. Hearing that, Dobi understands, and looks forwards to hanging back. Mon seems a little antsy, though knows better to disobey her.

So with that, the group relaxes, and the next few days seem to be a bit of relaxation for the foremen and their close friends. 
====To the Wild Lands====
;Iuli 1st - Iuli 10th

In this route, the player is first tasked with heading to that patch of land adjacent from the Wild Lands. There, their goal is to set up the groundwork, which means setting up markers to outline the structure. Loonus herself has been plotting out how the structure should look, so they should be able to get a rough sketch of how the base of the structure should look, as well as roughly how long the diameter should be. So first things first, the player needs to head out to the Wild Lands.

They press forwards and head to the area adjacent the Wild Lands. Upon arriving, Loonus reveals the stakes and long length of wire she's come with. She pulls out a slip of paper with ink on it, revealing a circular design with several mathematical symbols on it, as well as distances. She says that they need to achieve roughly this shape, but before they can achieve it, they need to get to establish the center. For this, they should head... 495 kilometers ahead. Demiurge raises a brow and asks what that is.
*Menlee will say that the kids get taught about measurements way back when. They need to know how much of a tree they need, how long their lines are, so on and so forth. Measurements are a really important factor to their way of life.
*Nastlaya furrows her brow and asks if the Dragon's being serious right now. She apologizes and tries to say she didn't mean to be rude, but measurements like that have been well engrained in their society for a long time.
*Mon scoffs and says that a boy like him really oughta be more up to date. He knows meters, right? Take that, multiple it by 495000. Demiurge admits he doesn't know what that is, and Mon seems positively dejected.

Either way, Loonus pats the Dragon's shoulder and assures him that he merely needs to follow their lead. Loonus takes one of the stakes and plants it into the soil, before tying the wire around it. She says that they'll carry this out, and she'll say "when". With that, players need to progress across the area and towards the marked destination. However, upon arriving, the party's forced to stop as they see a mighty, scaly creature on the spot. There're several feral corpses in the vicinity, and eating from them is a large creature with a long, thick tail, a spine about as tall as its body, and a long and strong jaw. Loonus says that it looks like one of the Monsters have made camp here. They'd normally have to avoid such creatures, but they can't just build their structure without getting this thing and its mound of death out of the way. The player's prompted to battle the creature soon, and upon choosing to, they're forced to battle the '''Spinosaurus'''.

The fight's fairly simple, thankfully. The creature's mainly oriented around physicality, which leaves its magic side lacking. Players should be careful, for it will hurt if it manages to land a hit on them. However, player should be able to lower its attack power, blind it, have someone that can take the damage take it, or otherwise exploit its weakness to magic. With enough work, the player should be able to fell the Spinosaurus, leaving the party to sheathe their weaponry. Loonus says that they've never actually faced these creatures before now, it's kind of exhilarating. Demiurge says that they should still be careful, and Loonus agrees, she's just saying...

Either way, they've now got the center of the structure decided, and with the line extending to that first stake, they should be able to form the rough outline easily enough. Now, their mission is to fulfill the outline and make sure no creature can mess up the build sight.
----
After that, the player's thus tasked with going around the general area, going to various checkpoints to place down stakes so as to create the outline of the build area. Whenever they arrive at a location, they're tasked with beating up some enemy at the location so as to make sure they can actually set the stake and keep enemies out. They work more and more through the plains, occasionally forced to clear out cropings of trees or thick boulders. And eventually, they're able to create a clear outline. 

Seeing that, Loonus gives a sigh and remarks that they did a good job.
*Mongi would wipe his brow and say that he's almost dreading the next few works. This was only the start of construction, things'll only get harder from here.
*Nastlaya says that things're already starting to look up. They got the proper place for the tower, now it's a matter of getting all the material here.
*Dobi cheers and says that things look great right now! They'll start building the structure, get it big and tall, and everyone will recognize the mortals here as achievers!

Loonus puts her hands on her hips triumphantly, appreciative over their efforts. She looks at the Dragon and says that this is the kind of reaction she's after. This is the hope everyone needs to hold for the future. However, as they talk, Demiurge notices the line they used to mark the perimeter of the base, and sees it getting tugged. Demiurge points that out, and seeing that, Loonus seems perturbed. Some creature must be messing with their design. If they mess it up, then their efforts will all be for not! She tells the party that they need to find out who's messing with the perimeter proper! 

With that, the player must go around the exterior in search of who or what is causing this disturbance. They eventually find the source, at which they spy a massive feral elephant wrapping its trunk around the wire and tugging. Demiurge wonders if it was trying to pass through here. Loonus then remarks that this means they'll have to build up the walls quickly. They can't afford to lose the perimeter now. The elephant lady tells the party they need to act fast. Right now, take up arms, and prepare to scare off the elephant!

With that, players are forced to fight the '''Stubborn Elephant'''. The boss is a very straight forwards opponent. It relies on Smash, a few Slashes, some Water magic, and some Earth magic. It seems entirely reliant on dealing doing damage, which has the party recommended to keep their defenses up or to debuff/apply ailments to the enemy. With proper strategy, players should be able to fell the pachyderm. With that, the fight finishes, and the elephant is forced to flee from the scene, allowing the party to sheathe their weapons and sigh. 

Loonus says that Demiurge was probably right. Truth is, this isn't the only creature they've encountered in the path of their construction quest. Unfortunately, they have needed to take a few ferals' homes for all they've done. Unfortunately, this is all necessary for their quest. Hopefully the lands will forgive them once they see the beacon of all of their efforts raise high into the sky. Either way, they've cleared up the issues for now. For now, they should head home, and she shall prepare to arrange the workers again. Tough guards will be positioned around here to make sure ferals don't make their way in, and soon, they might be able to set up construction.

With that, the party's free to return home.

;Iuli 11th

On this day, Demiurge and Loonus wakes up, Mongi and Menlee returning from work to relax. They meet in the middle of Makeet, and Loonus looks over the group prideful. She says that they've done amazing as of late. While everyone else is working, this small band was able to set up the first steps to the future. They're going to bring about an era unlike any other, and will bring great repute to mortal kind as a whole. 

Mongi cheers and leans down towards Menlee, who jumps up to give him a high five. Menlee says that he feels like a big boy now. Loonus chuckles and pats the guy's head. She says that he better keep that momentum up for the future, because unfortunately, things'll only get harder from here on out. She herself is still working on arranging a guard around the perimeter of the structure, and soon they'll have to establish a foundation within the bindings.

First, they need to establish the flooring for the location, which should be relatively easy considering they're forming it on a flat plain. She's already worked up the math for producing the foundation, and unfortunately, this'll require a lot of steelwork. She re-examined their stocks, and found they should have enough steel for the flooring. Still, they need to keep on building, so people will keep on gathering material, and they're going to set up the means of creating the plate the structure will rest on.

She's going to be woring for a while. So for this time, the foremen and their allies are allowed to relax for the next couple of days. But soon, they have a mission to carry out: the beginning of a long journey.
===Penultimate: Mountain===
;Iuli 16th

On this day, Dobi and Mon are at Makeet, and players are tasked with hanging out with them. Players can also interact with other characters that popped up for sidequests.
*Demiurge hangs with Dobi, who recommends they head over to the Mountain Range. She heard about the view up there, and while they had gone there to get material, she herself hasn't seen the view. She'd like to see it. And so, they go forwards, arriving at the summit. They sit there and look out over the field. They can see the forest Nastlaya showed Demiurge beforehand, and they can see the mountain they'd marched up before hand, where they can see a few people going up to map out the location. Dobi says Loonus is trying to puzzle out how far they can set those anchors they'd contemplated over beforehand, while also looking out how high they're going to make it before they have to establish those connections<br>She says that everything's starting to come along nicely. She had to admit, it got a little dull seeing just nature as far as she looked, but now they might start seeing something new: a structure made of metal. That's unlike anything that existed in these lands. Demiurge remarks that she sounds excited, to which she says it's a very exciting time. Big changes are going to happen soon. Demiurge asks if she was upset with how things were going, to which she clarifies that she knew things were gonna change, but it's still remarkable seeing everything finally come along.<br>Dobi says that she knows that good things were coming to them, even if the people around are a little hopeless. That's why she's been so peppy, so everyone else realizes that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. And hell, she can already feel spirits rising among her people as they lay their eyes on where their progress would go. She says that this is why they need to keep optimism. Now everyone's going to work hard to reach that goal and to see their oncoming future realized!
*Demiurge hangs out with Mon, the sheep definitely apprehensive. Either way, the two decide to head towards one of the caves in the Mountain Range, where she recommends he scrape up whatever pieces of metal the old group left behind. Demiurge seems to want to argue, though she gives him a mean look and he's suddenly pushed back into submission. He crawls through the ground and picks up whatever shards before handing them off to Mon, who collects them. Demiurge says they're off duty, though Mon responds that they still have the time to put in some little extra bit of work.<br>They work more and more, the sheep being eerily silent as Demiurge works. He says that the foremen don't seem to be this strict and asks why she's like this. She says that it's ''because'' the foremen are so passive that she's like this. She asks the Dragon if he knows what it's like to be surrounded by people that don't seem to be giving the task ahead of them the gravity it deserves? Does he know how infuriating that is? They treat this like it's not serious, like it's meant to be fun. They have rules and curfews, but when in the process they like to act like they aren't risking their lives around dangerous ferals, around Monsters, or around bits of the land that could fall apart if they're not careful.<br>Demiurge seems alarmed, and asks if anything like that's actually happened. She replies that it's people like her that makes sure that doesn't happen. They fight back creatures, look out for Monsters, make sure the injured get looked after, and make sure nobody comes back hurt. Demiurge supposes that having a happy attitude doesn't hurt, to which she replies that it's fine now, but what if something happens and someone gets hurt? Wouldn't that pain be so much worse if they'd been assured on how fine everything would be? She's one of the only realists in this whole village, and she refuses to be seen as lower for it. With that, they soon finish up searching the cave and begin heading back.

;Iuli 17th

Today, players are able to interact with Mongi's shift. This includes Mongi himself, Menlee, and quite a few characters players might've interacted with via sidequests.
*Demiurge hangs out with Mongi, who decides to show him a fine nearby location. They head into the wild plains from before, through the brush, before arriving at a pool of water. Demiurge asks him if it's safe out here, though Mongi assures, and points out that they're pretty tough guys. They dip in there, the pool a bit shallow for the two. Mongi says that after a long day at work, it really helps to moisturize the scales. He asks if Demiurge is that way, to which the Dragon says that his scales aren't exactly good for water, he usually needed his caretaker to really scrub him. Mongi raises a brow, curious about the title of caretaker. Demiurge says that she raised him since he was a babe while those that birthed him went off to other planets.<br>Mongi furrows his brow, before remarking that he supposes his teachers and foremen would be considered his caretakers. Demiurge supposes that's kind of like how he was raised. He then remarks that he didn't notice lots of water around, to which the shark replies that they decided to station themselves around here, figuring it'd be better to build the structure far away from the water for fear of dropping supplies in there. He supposes he understands, but the heat is still killer. He'd try asking for some water or wind magic, but a lot of the people around only know how to use the stuff for hurting and damaging.<br>He then says that he supposes he'll miss the warm later when they go up the mountain. The Dragon supposes that's true, and can only hope they find a way to keep themselves warm as they go up. Demiurge then thinks back to the Stone Age, at which he interacted with the old intelligentsia. He had influenced them, and can't help but feel a bit guilty. There's an awkward pause, and the two just try to relax.
*Demiurge hangs out with Menlee, who decides to lead him away from Makeet. They head down the hill adjacent the hill and peer up. Menlee says that they're in eye-sight of the home, so they should be safe. He sits down and begins looking through the material he's gathered. Demiurge sits nearby and looks the various explosive gear Menlee has set up. He says he got a lot of magical chunks, so he should have a surplus of stuff. The two sit and Demiurge's gaze looks towards Makeet, before gazing skyward. He contemplates on his caretaker, before turning towards the smaller fox, when he asks him about his caretaker. He raises a brow curious and asks for what he means, to which he means someone that helped teach and look after him when he was younger. Menlee supposes that that'd be Mongi and Loonus. They watched over him, they fed him, and they make sure he knows enough to be a valuable member of the team. The other foremen are also kinda caretakers.<br>He asks Demiurge if he has one of those. Demiurge assures him that of course he does. When he was born, his parents had to fly off to some other planet to lead, so he was left in the care of a caretaker Dragon called Sophia. She's been very warm to him, and she's been accommodating to him for a long time. She even let him go to a world to start ruling younger than most Dragons do. Menlee looks on with awe, seeming inspired by what he perceived as the story the Dragon was weaving. He says that that is really remarkable, that tale.<br>He says that he's not sure if it makes sense to him, but he guesses Sophia's nice. And Demiurge assures that the foremen and Loonus are also pretty nice. And it seems like they're doing fine enough raising Menlee. He smiles warmly and keeps on tending with his bombs. Demiurge asks if he knows who his parents are, though she says that kids around here don't really get to know them. Kids get born, the women go into recovery fast, then back to work while those able-bodied keep watch over the infants. Demiurge supposes he understands that, though, still, he should know who his parents are. Menlee shrugs and says that's how it is. Either way, Menlee keeps working on bombs.

;Iuli 18th

On this day, Nastlaya and Zub are now in the area. Players can also interact with other normal people, likely interacted with for sidequests, but are prompted to interact with the former two first.
*Demiurge decides to hang out with Nastlaya. Seeing her, the bear opts to lead the Dragon towards a set of woods her workers have been going through. They head out through the lands and northeast-wards. Over there, Demiurge finds the Work Woods, which appears to have very visible lines of missing trees. As they approach, Nastlaya remarks that it looks remarkable, doesn't it? Already they're leaving a bit of a mark on this land. Demiurge supposes that that makes sense, and they keep pressing forwards.<br>There, they walk through one of the trails, looking over the stumps. Nastlaya says that they should appreciate this view while it stands, because it sounds like they're moving on to a whole other material when they make the structure. Demiurge remarks that she seems disappointed, to which she gives a shrug. She admits that it felt nice, being able to take her sword to the thick trunks. She can't exactly bring her sword through metal or make plates with a swing of her weapon. She's kind of been the strong guy, and she's not sure she can demonstrate her strength as things are moving right now.<br>Demiurge finds himself a little puzzled by this, clearly unsure of how to proceed. He says that he's sure everyone will remember the guy that made it possible for everyone to be indoors. Plus, while the structure's being built, houses will need to be made still. Hearing that, Nastlaya supposes he has a point. Maybe she can still put her sword to use later. As they relax in the woods, she remarks that she never really asked about Demiurge himself. With that, Demiurge gives his story, and the bear remarks that he's been sticking to that story a long time. She shrugs and says that he probably has a reason to keep to it, and so she won't bother him further
*Demiurge opts to hang out with Zub, though Nastlaya, who he's with, asks that Demiurge doesn't go too far from Makeet and keep an eye on the little guy. Demiurge nods and begins to move, Zub happily hanging beside him. With this, Demiurge tries to ask the guy where he'd like to go, though he clings to his side. Demiurge ponders, before supposing he should go in the direction of the Mountain Range. They move and Zub clings tightly to him, the Dragon watching to see whether he's interested in anything around the trail. However, Zub just stays beside him. Demiurge tries to start conversation, before shaking his head and saying that that's just silly.<br>He sits down on the side of the trail and remarks that he's not sure why he's here. He chose to hang out with a guy that he can't talk to, and probably doesn't even understand his words. Zub stares on him, the Dragon interpreting it as him urging him to continue on. Demiurge supposes that he figured he should've since it was sorta put before him. The Zub keeps up that look, and Demiurge wonders what he wants. The bear just stares, and Demiurge shakes his head and asks if the bear's trying to imply that this isn't just about the two of them, that this is about something deeper.<br>Is he saying that he went about this whole "ruling the world" thing with the wrong mindset? Did he just go about this because he didn't have a real reason to, everyone around was just doing it? Was he just making an impulsive decision that he had no idea he was getting into until it was too late? How even now, even when he's supposed to be leader, he's just following the orders of the guys he should be directing? And now... now he's just talking to a feral... He gives pause realizing how ridiculous he sounds right now. Zub climbs on his lap and seems to snuggle up to the Dragon, Demiurge returning the hug. He says they should head back right now.

;Iuli 19th

On this day, Dobi and Mon are back while Loonus is asking for the current foremen to meet up. She explains that she's collected info from the scouts, and after crunching the numbers, she thinks she's gotten a good result. She's been able to estimate the structure and has collected info about how gravity and wind would affect it, and thus was able to determine what'd be needed to keep it upright. Mon remarks that she helped check her work and says that these should be sufficient for keeping the Structure upright. At that, the elephant displays a diagram, showing the grand structure, while also displaying a set of anchors with long chains attached to one side and anchored down to points of the mountain.

She says that she had her scouts mark the precise locations, and she's measured out the weights that they're going to need. She says that she thinks they can leave the process of metal gathering to the workers, but she'd like the lot of them to work on establishing the places the weights should go. She then turns to Menlee, and tells him that his knowledge would prove useful. The fox's ears perk up and he glances around excitedly. Mon asks if she's sure this is safe, to which Menlee says that he'll be sure to leave enough of a charge time to set the explosives before they can be exploded. Mongi says that he's been getting a lot more useful with these things and had been able to build more caverns in their work.

Nastlaya says that she should learn a thing or two about those explosives, to which Menlee says that he'd be happy to! Loonus tells the fox to review his work, saying that they need craters at least 20 feet in radius. Menlee says that he thinks that he can get explosives that powerful. Loonus also says that until they get people very knowledgeable, they're going to have to perform the detonations whenever Menlee is available. Mon says that she still thinks this isn't a good idea, to which Dobi declares that if the rest of the crowd agrees, then she thinks they should see to it that he gets these detonations ready.

With that, Loonus declares that they all have their missions. They are to go up to that giant mountain and prepare pockets to place the anchors in. They can prepare detonations whenever Mongi and team is ready, and in the meantime they can clear a path to the locations. Their scouts have reported sighting some strange creatures up on the mountain, and so they should prepare for anything. Given the atmosphere, they should prepare for potential freezing. And with that, players now have a mission to fulfill.

;Iuli 19th - 31st

With this, players now have their mission: go up to the three locations on the mountain, wait for Mongi's shift to be ready, and go to the locations to prepare to detonate. This means going back to the mountain and exploring the peak, they have to be smart and make their way through the various enemies, consisting of feral bears, foxes, and snow owls, as well as wolves. Each location has its own little scene to coincide with it. The Structure itself is estimated to lean towards the northwest, which means that the players have to set explosives at locations to the southeast, south, and east locations on the mountain peak.
*East - This leads the group towards a patch of clear snow leading them near the edge, though not too close to interfere with the explosive radius. Loonus will assure the group that they checked to make sure whatever remnant of cave wall will be thick enough to contain the anchor. Menlee comes over to the red flag and begins to search his satchel, though the group becomes surprised by some smell in the air. Nastlaya/Dobi complains about the smell, though the fox sniffs the air a little. He says that it smells like... Earth. The group turns, where they see a plated Monster with a mace-like tail, glowing with an earthen energy.<br>Mongi declares that they won't be able to properly set the explosives if that thing is here. Loonus then declares that they'll just have to get rid of it. With that, players get into a battle with the '''Earth Ankylosaurus'''. The foe is fairly defensive, fairly physical able, with some access to Earth magic. In addition to that, the foe can inflict the Smell ailment in order to force one or more party members to flee the scene. Either way, players should focus on debuffs and magic to wear down the foe. With enough work, they'll be able to fell the creature, it collapsing.<br>The group is left panting, some covering their noses. Menlee wonders what that thing is doing here, to which Menlee supposes that its thick fat makes it more well protected from the cold. Maybe it utilized its element to drive off whatever other predators are up here, hoping that smell can keep potential magical blows from hitting it. Demiurge supposes that, either way, they have the site clear. With that, Menlee approaches the red flag, and pulls out a big bomb. He sets it, and tells the group that he set the fuse just right, but they should still get away, fast. The fox races over to the shark, them watching from a distance before the bomb explodes in a massive fashion, the crew taking cover. They uncover, and see a large crater now in place, with Menlee excited at the sheer volume.
*Southeast - This leads the group over near a frozen lake. Loonus says that they measured their distance from the lake; it's completely frozen so they don't have to worry about it too much with the explosion. Still, the radius of the explosion should leave them completely on the rock. The group approaches the red flag positioned, and Mongi tells Menlee to prepare the explosive. The young fox nods and begins searching his bag. Though as he does, they hear some stomping. Zub/Mon will prepare their own weaponry and turn towards the source, it being a large Monster accompanied by a few of those Snow Raptors.<br>Loonus declares that there are more Monsters up here than they'd thought. Nastlaya/Dobi will declare that it doesn't matter what gets thrown at them, they will destroy them! With that, the party is thrust into a party with the '''Maiasaura'''. The large creature is Water/Restoration based and is mid-speed. It relies on its fellow raptors to deal damage and tends to heal its allies in between striking the party with magic or a sort of hipcheck. Players will have to be fast about damaging the creature and find ways to lower its health faster than it can heal. And they can't just defeat the Raptors and think that's it, because the Maiasaura has low revival magic. To make matters worse, the Snow Raptors can Freeze a party member to let the Maiasaura strike for extra damage. With some good use of skills, the party should be able to defeat the monster, taking it down.<br>The group pants and pants, looking over the dead monsters. Mongi ponders how these creatures can rely on freezing techniques in a setting where everything is freezing. Loonus suggests that these creatures probably tried hunting down creatures non-native. This little group probably hung out to make sure the Maiasaura is able to crush their prey. Either way, Demiurge says that the space is cleared. Demiurge supposes that, either way, they have the site clear. With that, Menlee approaches the red flag, and pulls out a big bomb. He sets it and tells the group that he set the fuse just right, but they should still get away, fast. The fox races over to the shark, them watching from a distance before the bomb explodes in a massive fashion, the crew taking cover. They uncover, and see a large crater now in place, with Menlee excited at the sheer volume, the frozen lake even cracked from the shockwave!
*South - This leads the group towards a forest, where large trees cover up the area. Loonus tells the group that the explosion should be able to clear out plenty of the trees, Menlee affirming as much, though says they should only be more careful about the debris. Nastlaya/Dobi say that they will make sure to protect themselves. Menlee makes his way to the appropriate location, approaching the flag. Once there, the young fox begins searching his pack, though the sound of some stamping distracts them. They turn, where they see a large, fat creature with a trio of horns over its face, wind swirling around it and plucking leaves.<br>Loonus remarks that this thing looks tough, and probably has a fair bit of damage with its wind power. Demiurge declares that they'll take care of it, and thus take up their weaponry. With that, players battle the '''Wind Triceratops'''. The foe has a decent amount of defense to it, while its magic is relatively low. It can buff up its physical attack, including a Charge move. In addition, it wields '''Wind Arrow''', a Skill that lets it deal Wind damage with its more powerful physical stat. Players will have to work on lowering the amount of damage it can do to them, and hopefully try to Blind or Freeze it to weaken its attack. With enough work, the players will be able to overwhelm it and cause it to collapse.<br>The party sighs and puts their weaponry away, Mongi pondering what such a creature like this is doing up here. Nastlaya/Mon will suspect that this creature was an herbivore, and its sheer bulk probably let it be able to control the forest around here. Perhaps it tried to make due with what the mountain offered it once it was moved up here. Either way, Demiurge says that the space is cleared. Demiurge supposes that, either way, they have the site clear. With that, Menlee approaches the red flag, and pulls out a big bomb. He sets it and tells the group that he set the fuse just right, but they should still get away, fast. The fox races over to the shark, them watching from a distance before the bomb explodes in a massive fashion, sending branches and timber scattering in all directions. Menlee can't help but laugh excitedly at the result of the explosion, and the crew looks to see that a new crater is formed.

Once the third bomb is set off. the party reconvenes over at the start of the trail, Loonus thanking them all for their work. This is far from the end of their work, as they can all surmise, but this is a good way to get progress. Menlee is very happy to've played a part, Mongi telling him that he did amazing. The shark then asks if it's time to get down from here; he's not doing as well as the furred guys. Loonus nods in confirmation, saying that they have to make work for the next leg of the journey: creating those anchors. 

And thus, the group returns home. Though, the camera does return over to that frozen lake by the other anchor spot. Suddenly, the shards of the ice making it up began to shake.
----
The next morning comes, with Demiurge waking up. Though as he does, one of the workers gets his attention, telling him that Loonus is requesting a meeting with available foremen. Demiurge is confused, though goes to investigate. And once coming to Loonus's cabin, he sees the usual crew, sans Menlee and Mongi. He asks what's going on, to which the elephant explains that she had her scouts go to the anchor points to make sure the local fauna will stay away. However, she received a report this morning that a massive Monster appeared over at the lake and is threatening to compromise the anchor point. The party is shocked, with Mon asking where it could've come from. Loonus says that she doesn't know.

Nastlaya says that they should just do what they usually do and beat that Monster. Loonus agrees, though warns that reports claim this Monster huge. She doesn't want to take any risks with battling this thing. Furthermore, if it is indeed threatening the anchor point, then she wants Menlee along to get ready to clear debris. Dobi declares that they are going to tear things up!
----
With that, players make their way over to the location in question. Though as they approach, they can hear animalistic roars that seem to shake the very ground. Loonus warns that they should make sure they're prepared before they press in and will bar them from progressing if they don't have Mongi and Menlee in their party. Once players are ready, they press on to that frozen lake.

They press in and are shocked at the creature before them. Said creature is a scaled beast with a long, thick, aquatic body with fins the size of roads, a neck that stretches high like a tree, and a shark-like head on top. The Monster writhes about in the shattered lake, seeming in pain at the lack of swimable water, while also shaking the earth more and more. If Nastlaya is in the party, she'll remark that Mon said the lake was completely frozen over and asks what this creature was doing in it. If Mon is in the party, she'll remark that the lake was completely frozen over, shocked at a creature like this being able to come from it. Loonus asks if the creature might've been frozen in ages ago or something. Mongi then suggests that the explosion must've loosened the ice to let it break free.

Menlee gasps as he sees the rock wall near the anchor point quiver, saying that this creature's shaking is going to destroy the anchor point. Demiurge then declares that that means they can't keep waiting much longer. The Monster is threatening their work! Loonus declares that the Dragon is right and that they need to take up arms. Thus, the party draws their weaponry, with Demiurge able to rally them with a cry. He can declare "For the Structure" or "For our Future". Either way, the party cries in affirmation, and rushes the Monster.

With that, players are thrust into a battle with the '''Plesiosaur'''. The foe is very hearty, boasting a lot of HP, along with some dangerous attacks. The large Monster can use powerful Smash skills, bite for stabbing damage, as well as use powerful Water magic. The creature also has access to the Freeze ailment, which means players can take more damage from its attacks. Worse still, it has access to a unique skill, '''Chomp''', which lets it catch a party member in its mouth and chew on them, dealing damage to them on their turn while leaving them unable to act. Players should try to rely on ailments make it harder to miss, while using curing techniques to get rid of freeze whenever it comes up. Couple that with some debuffs, and players should be able to drain its health.

With it beaten, a cutscene plays that shows the Plesiosaur thrash harder. The ground shakes more and more, Mongi shouting that the Monster is just fighting harder! Menlee looks towards the anchor point and can see a crack start to form towards it. Menlee points it out, to which Loonus says they need to double their efforts. She thus rushes up and swings her hammer into the beast's head, though the Plesiosaur turns and tries to chomp down on her, only for Demiurge to rush in and tackle her away. The rest of the party tries to wear him down, Demiurge breaking away to keep on attacking. It fights more and more, and eventually its thrashing causes it to kick up rubble, rocks tossed haphazardly about.

Menlee sees a boulder the size of a cabin coming for the anchor point, and thus draws one of his bombs and hurls it at it to protect the point. It explodes the boulder, causing it to blast away, avoiding the hole. However, one of those decently sized rocks is coming straight towards the young fox, him looking up and his eyes widening in horror. Mongi shouts for Menlee and thus rushes forwards, before tackling into him to shove him out of the path of danger. The party, meanwhile, manages to land a few final blows, causing the Plesiosaur to let out a roar of death before collapsing. And finally, the earth seems to stop shaking, allowing everyone a moment to breathe a sigh of relief. 

The party sighs in relief, though they hear grunts of effort. They turn, where they see Menlee trying to tug Mongi out from under the rock, one of his legs pinned beneath. Mongi just tells him that he's almost there, he's almost out. Menlee turns to the party and tells them that he got hit in the corssfire. He asks them to help. Demiurge says that he can try and races forwards. The Dragon reaches under the boulder and tries to pull up. Now the fox is able to pull him more easily, allowing Mongi to come out. The shark thanks him, and thus starts to stand up. However, the elephant's eyes suddenly widen, and she tries to tell him to stop. Though once he puts weight on the formerly trapped foot, a sickening crunch echoes through the now quiet battlefield, and Mongi crumbles.

He grunts with pain and tries to climb up, wondering what just happened. He looks down at himself, and the color drains from his feet. He'd been acting on adrenaline before, null to the pain below his knee. But now, plain as day, before everyone, they see his leg, gashed open from the boulder tossed, bone damaged at the same time, his leg had completely snapped as a result of the Plesiosaur's thrashing. Mongi's allowed only a few moments of reprieve before he passes out form shock. The party is horrified, when Loonus snaps out of the shock and shouts for them to get this man out of here. If they bring him back home, they can fix up the wound before he suffers too much more. The party thus picks him up, though Menlee is frozen in place from the sight before him. The party starts to move on, Loonus shouting for the fox to get moving, thus getting him to follow along.
----
After this, Loonus says that Mongi is being monitored. He's gone into a coma, though Mon says that he should be able to wake up in the near future. But his leg... She says that the sheep explained that no one knows how to suture together limbs broken that badly before. Demiurge says that he's so sorry. The elephant says that no one could've seen such a thing coming... She says that Menlee is trying to stay strong, but he's clearly suffering. A lot of the camp is, to be honest. She says that they should try to calm down for now, and she'll reconvene with them at some point.

With that, players are allowed free time, though without being able to use Mongi for the duration of the era. 

;Augua 1st

On this, Demiurge makes his way over to the recovery ward. There, Menlee is seen waiting outside it, the Dragon asking him if the foreman is ok. Menlee says that he hasn't seen him yet. The doctors say that he's ok, but he can't bring himself to see him. Demiurge feels his heart drop, though he tells him that he can talk to him if he'd like. The demolitionist is quiet, though he instead asks if he can come along. Demiurge assures him that that's ok. With that, the duo steps in. 

There are plenty of beds set up for various workers, and they make their way through it. They make it to one of the beds, where they see the shark looking down, the lack of leg visible even through the bed. However, when he sees the two, he perks up and greets them, saying he hasn't seen them in a while. Demiurge asks him how he's doing, to which Mongi says that he was saddened by the news. With him in this state, he doesn't think he'll be able to work again. He says he'll try to figure out something he can do around here, but the guys around here told him to stay down for a little while. He asks how the rest of the crew is doing, to which Menlee, though not looking him in the eye, tells him that Loonus took some time to look for a foreman to work in his stead. He isn't nearly as good as he is.

Mongi just tells him to still listen to this new foreman. They still have a duty to complete, even if he himself can't see to its completion. Menlee starts to tear up, prompting the shark to gently bring him in close. He tells him that this was just a freak accident. No one could've seen something like this happening. He tells him that they still have a job to do, everyone on this world. Menlee nods, though says he doesn't know if he can without him. The shark says that he's a bright kid, and he's got so many other mentors that can pick up the slack he himself will leave behind. He ruffles behind his ears and tells him to stand strong.

He says that he'll root for all of them as much as he can. Menlee thanks him and makes his way out. Mongi tells Demiurge to keep the gang up. The Dragon promises that he will.
----
After that, Demiurge goes to visit Loonus herself. Inside her personal cabin, he can see her deep in thought. He asks her what's up, to which she says that she'd pondered something weird. Making a building, it'll involve setting up lots of supports and providing a fine coating outside. She then wonders if he thinks it'd be possible to apply that to a limb. Demiurge wonders what she means, to which she says that she thinks that it conceptually makes sense, being able to make an artificial body part. The process could be similar to making an actual building, but far smaller scale. THey'd have to make up the skeletal structure and apply the plating to ensure a solid enough foundation. 

Demiurge says that he doesn't know a lot about that sort of thing, so he can't say. Loonus then supposes that that's something that they'll have to investigate at a later date. They still have the mission proper to worry about. She says that she'll be sure to wrap up her calculations over the next part and tells Demiurge to make sure morale is up in the meantime. The Dragon promises that he will, and thus makes his way out, leaving Loonus with sheets to do her math on.
===Penultimate: Plains===
;Iuli 11th

Today, players are able to interact with Mongi's shift. This includes Mongi himself, Menlee, and quite a few characters players might've interacted with via sidequests. 
*Demiurge hangs out with Mongi, who decides to show him a fine nearby location. They head into the wild plains from before, through the brush, before arriving at a pool of water. Demiurge asks him if it's safe out here, though Mongi assures, and points out that they're pretty tough guys. They dip in there, the pool a bit shallow for the two. Mongi says that after a long day at work, it really helps to moisturize the scales. He asks if Demiurge is that way, to which the Dragon says that his scales aren't exactly good for water, he usually needed his caretaker to really scrub him. Mongi raises a brow, curious about the title of caretaker. Demiurge says that she raised him since he was a babe while those that birthed him went off to other planets.<br>Mongi furrows his brow, before remarking that he supposes his teachers and foremen would be considered his caretakers. Demiurge supposes that's kind of like how he was raised. He then remarks that he didn't notice lots of water around, to which the shark replies that they decided to station themselves around here, figuring it'd be better to build the structure far away from the water for fear of dropping supplies in there. He supposes he understands, but the heat is still killer. He'd try asking for some water or wind magic, but a lot of the people around only know how to use the stuff for hurting and damaging.<br>Either way, maybe he better get used to getting hot unless they find some way to keep him cooled. Demiurge apologizes for that, though Mongi assures him, saying that it's not his fault. Demiurge then thinks back to the Stone Age, at which he interacted with the old intelligentsia. He had influenced them, and can't help but feel a bit guilty. There's an awkard pause, and the two just try to relax.
*Demiurge hangs out with Menlee, who decides to lead him away from Makeet. They head down the hill adjacent the hill and peer up. Menlee says that they're in eye-sight of the home, so they should be safe. He sits down and begins looking through the material he's gathered. Demiurge sits nearby and looks the various explosive gear Menlee has set up. He says he got a lot of magical chunks, so he should have a surplus of stuff. The two sit and Demiurge's gaze looks towards Makeet, before gazing skyward. He contemplates on his caretaker, before turning towards the smaller fox, when he asks him about his caretaker. He raises a brow curious and asks for what he means, to which he means someone that helped teach and look after him when he was younger. Menlee supposes that that'd be Mongi and Loonus. They watched over him, they fed him, and they make sure he knows enough to be a valuable member of the team. The other foremen are also kinda caretakers.<br>He asks Demiurge if he has one of those. Demiurge assures him that of course he does. When he was born, his parents had to fly off to some other planet to lead, so he was left in the care of a caretaker Dragon called '''Sophia'''. She's been very warm to him, and she's been accommodating to him for a long time. She even let him go to a world to start ruling younger than most Dragons do. Menlee looks on with awe, seeming inspired by what he perceived as the story the Dragon was weaving. He says that that is really remarkable, that tale.<br>He says that he's not sure if it makes sense to him, but he guesses Sophia's nice. And Demiurge assures that the foremen and Loonus are also pretty nice. And it seems like they're doing fine enough raising Menlee. He smiles warmly and keeps on tending with his bombs. Demiurge asks if he knows who his parents are, though she says that kids around here don't really get to know them. Kids get born, the women go into recovery fast, then back to work while those able-bodied keep watch over the infants. Demiurge supposes he understands that, though, still, he should know who his parents are. Menlee shrugs and says that's how it is. Either way, Menlee keeps working on bombs.

After speaking with the two party members, players are able to go home and rest. In the meantime, the camera can show a few workers go from Makeet over towards the foundation, them clearly meant to guard the area.

;Iuli 12th

On this day, Nastlaya and Zub are now in the area. Players can also interact with other normal people, likely interacted with for sidequests, but are prompted to interact with the former two first.
*Demiurge decides to hang out with Nastlaya. Seeing her, the bear opts to lead the Dragon towards a set of woods her workers have been going through. They head out through the lands and northeast-wards. Over there, Demiurge finds the '''Work Woods''', which appears to have very visible lines of missing trees. As they approach, Nastlaya remarks that it looks remarkable, doesn't it? Already they're leaving a bit of a mark on this land. Demiurge supposes that that makes sense, and they keep pressing forwards.<br>There, they walk through one of the trails, looking over the stumps. Nastlaya says that they should appreciate this view while it stands, because it sounds like they're moving on to a whole other material when they make the structure. Demiurge remarks that she seems disappointed, to which she gives a shrug. She admits that it felt nice, being able to take her sword to the thick trunks. She can't exactly bring her sword through metal or make plates with a swing of her weapon. She's kind of been the strong guy, and she's not sure she can demonstrate her strength as things are moving right now.<br>Demiurge finds himself a little puzzled by this, clearly unsure of how to proceed. He says that he's sure everyone will remember the guy that made it possible for everyone to be indoors. Plus, while the structure's being built, houses will need to be made still. Hearing that, Nastlaya supposes he has a point. Maybe she can still put her sword to use later. As they relax in the woods, she remarks that she never really asked about Demiurge himself. With that, Demiurge gives his story, and the bear remarks that he's been sticking to that story a long time. She shrugs and says that he probably has a reason to keep to it, and so she won't bother him further.
*Demiurge opts to hang out with Zub, though Nastlaya, who he's with, asks that Demiurge doesn't go too far from Makeet and keep an eye on the little guy. Demiurge nods and begins to move, Zub happily hanging beside him. With this, Demiurge tries to ask the guy where he'd like to go, though he clings to his side. Demiurge ponders, before supposing he should go in the direction of the Mountain Range. They move and Zub clings tightly to him, the Dragon watching to see whether he's interested in anything around the trail. However, Zub just stays beside him. Demiurge tries to start conversation, before shaking his head and saying that that's just silly.<br>He sits down on the side of the trail and remarks that he's not sure why he's here. He chose to hang out with a guy that he can't talk to, and probably doesn't even understand his words. Zub stares on him, the Dragon interpreting it as him urging him to continue on. Demiurge supposes that he figured he should've since it was sorta put before him. The Zub keeps up that look, and Demiurge wonders what he wants. The bear just stares, and Demiurge shakes his head and asks if the bear's trying to imply that this isn't just about the two of them, that this is about something deeper.<br>Is he saying that he went about this whole "ruling the world" thing with the wrong mindset? Did he just go about this because he didn't have a real reason to, everyone around was just doing it? Was he just making an impulsive decision that he had no idea he was getting into until it was too late? How even now, even when he's supposed to be leader, he's just following the orders of the guys he should be directing? And now... now he's just talking to a feral... He gives pause realizing how ridiculous he sounds right now. Zub climbs on his lap and seems to snuggle up to the Dragon, Demiurge returning the hug. He says they should head back right now.

After interacting with the two, players can go to bed to go tot he next day. In the meantime, within the perimeter they set up, the area within is being dug up.

;Iuli 13th

On this day, Dobi and Mon are at Makeet, and players are tasked with hanging out with them. Players can also interact with other characters that popped up for sidequests.
*Demiurge hangs with Dobi, who recommends they head over to the Mountain Range. She heard about the view up there, and while they had gone there to get material, she herself hasn't seen the view. She'd like to see it. And so, they go forwards, arriving at the summit. They sit there and look out over the field. They can see the forest Nastlaya showed Demiurge beforehand, and they can see the Wild Lands, where the foundation of the structure is being set. Dobi says Loonus is trying to find out how best to manipulate the metals to fill out, and she's figured the best bet for now is to first build the foundation into the earth below rather than just create a plate on top of it.<br>She says that everything's starting to come along nicely. She had to admit, it got a little dull seeing just nature as far as she looked, but now they might start seeing something new: a structure made of metal. That's unlike anything that existed in these lands. Demiurge remarks that she sounds excited, to which she says it's a very exciting time. Big changes are going to happen soon. Demiurge asks if she was upset with how things were going, to which she clarifies that she knew things were gonna change, but it's still remarkable seeing everything finally come along.<br>Dobi says that she knows that good things were coming to them, even if the people around are a little hopeless. That's why she's been so peppy, so everyone else realizes that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. And hell, she can already feel spirits rising among her people as they lay their eyes on where their progress would go. She says that this is why they need to keep optimism. Now everyone's going to work hard to reach that goal and to see their oncoming future realized!
*Demiurge hangs out with Mon, the sheep definitely apprehensive. Either way, the two decide to head towards one of the caves in the Mountain Range, where she recommends he scrape up whatever pieces of metal the old group left behind. Demiurge seems to want to argue, though she gives him a mean look and he's suddenly pushed back into submission. He crawls through the ground and picks up whatever shards before handing them off to Mon, who collects them. Demiurge says they're off duty, though Mon responds that they still have the time to put in some little extra bit of work.<br>They work more and more, the sheep being eerily silent as Demiurge works. He says that the foremen don't seem to be this strict and asks why she's like this. She says that it's **because** the foremen are so passive that she's like this. She asks the Dragon if he knows what it's like to be surrounded by people that don't seem to be giving the task ahead of them the gravity it deserves? Does he know how infuriating that is? They treat this like it's not serious, like it's meant to be fun. They have rules and curfews, but when in the process they like to act like they aren't risking their lives around dangerous ferals, around Monsters, or around bits of the land that could fall apart if they're not careful.<br>Demiurge seems alarmed, and asks if anything like that's actually happened. She replies that it's people like her that makes sure that doesn't happen. They fight back creatures, look out for Monsters, make sure the injured get looked after, and make sure nobody comes back hurt. Demiurge supposes that having a happy attitude doesn't hurt, to which she replies that it's fine now, but what if something happens and someone gets hurt? Wouldn't that pain be so much worse if they'd been assured on how fine everything would be? She's one of the only realists in this whole village, and she refuses to be seen as lower for it. With that, they soon finish up searching the cave and begin heading back.

;Iuli 14th

On this day, Mongi and Menlee are back while Loonus is asking for the current foremen to meet up. She explains that she's set the guard and they've begun establishing a base for the structure. They've set up guards, and a few have even adopted Menlee's plan of bombing. The fox seems excited, and Loonus presses on. He says that they needed to hollow out a lot of the earth. They've been able to smelt down a lot of the metals and begun pouring them in, and soon it should solidfy into a more stable base. Once the area's settled, it'll be time to start creating the rest of the structure. 

Mongi asks if she intends them to use some cooling magic on the molten pit, though she says they intend to do that, but not now. The metal's really thick, so unless they have access to really powerful magic, they won't be able to break the surface, which means the stuff underneath won't be solid. They're going to have to wait for the stuff to cool before striking at the surface. Menlee then asks what that'll mean for them to do, to which she replies that in the meantime, they're going to need to develop both a mold, and gather more material. She suspects the other foremen will be able to gather the metals, but for now, they need something strong enough to contain the material so that they can create walls without having the molten metal leak onto the field.

Mongi asks how they'll do that, to which she says she's been struggling with that part herself. She'd considered making the mold out of the material itself, though that'd result in more waiting, plus they'd have to lug around a mold that could be any number of meters tall. She says that she's had a couple of able-bodied guards scan around, before uncovering what seem to be "burning clouds" down south. Demiurge seems confused, and she replies that they investigated, finding a mountain full of molten earth. She says that if they can collect from this, then they might be able to fashion a mold from the material of the mountain. 

So, Menlee asks if they're intended to go near that giant mountain, to which Loonus says that that may be their best bet. She'll make sure the rest of the foremen know the plan, and says they'll need to gather plenty of material. She's done the math, and she has an idea for how many material they should collect. Now they know the plan, and it'll be time to head out. She recommends that they all prepare themselves for extreme heat and whatever could be living out there. They now have their mission.

;Iuli 14th - Iuli 29th

And now, the group has their journey to go through. They have to travel southwards to go for the strange mountain described. The trail itself isn't terribly dangerous, moreso really long. Fortunately there are checkpoints along the trail to allow easier travel. Eventually, the group makes it to the base of the mountain, the '''Mold Volcano''', a large, cone-like volcano with an opening on top that's exhaling smoke. Loonus says that nobody here's encountered an environment like this before, so she recommends to the party that they all be careful.

They march up the mountain and begin looking for good entrances. Loonus recommends looking for any cave systems, a fortunately easy task to do. They move more and more, before eventually finding the opening. When they go in, Loonus reminds the party to be really careful. They shouldn't gather more material than they need, and they need to make sure any material they collect isn't blocking magma, nor is it load-bearing. She recommends they not take too much, and that they bring whatever they collect to this opening. 

The party agrees, and now head into the system. Within, they'll uncover various earth/fire/water/physical-wielding ferals. They may fight moles, bats, salamanders, even the occasional cave bear. After a bit of exploring the cramped caves, they eventually arrive at the belly of the volcano, where they see the opening of the cave way overhead, and the bunch of magma filling the inside. Loonus says that here they see the material holding the magma, meaning they now know what to collect and what to gather for their mold. 
*Menlee asks if they're really supposed to dig up all of the floor, to which Loonus replies that that won't be necessary, she's done her math.
*Nastlaya cracks her knuckles and says she's ready to tear up the floor of this cave stuff. However, Loonus assures that they won't have to get rid of all of it, she's done the math.
*Mon assures that they'll work to the best of their ability, they'll even dig out the whole mountain if they need. Loonus assures that they won't need that much, she's done the math already.

Besides, if they're careful with the mold they collect, they should be able to reuse it for future steps of the structure. For now, though, it's time to get collecting.

With this, players are tasked with going to various points in the volcano to find material necessary for collecting. Throughout they'll encounter some relatively high level enemies, so players should be careful here. Fortunately, though, players should be able to gather the material they've collected so far, and thus are ready to bring the material to the proper point, where Loonus plans to have more men come along to collect. 

The party's got a lot of work ahead of them, so they begin to move the chunks, albeit with a lot of effort. However, as they move, they're unaware of the disturbance their causing, a Monster hidden within the volcano beginning to move around. They're beginning to bring the material for the mold to the opening, when they hear the sound of claws dragging through rock. They look towards the source, and spy a mighty creature: a scaled beast with a long muzzle, a large set of spines extending from its back, and it standing significantly larger than the majority of their party. On top of that, the creature seems to be emanating an intense heat as smoke seems to pour from the beast. The party's encountered a '''Flaming Spinosaurus''', who rears its head back before belching forth a mighty wave of fire.

The party's forced to flee to avoid being smoked, but unfortunately, they're forced to leave behind the material they'd collected. Unfortunately, it seemed to realize how important the stuff is, so the Monster lingers near it, waiting for them to approach. Loonus is upset, but unfortunately, they have to fall back. They lack the advantage here, and for a creature like this, they'll need any advantage they can take. So, she'll have to go home and rearrange the schedule. She says they'll need the full foreman force to deal with this beast. 
----
The day'll have to wrap up, and the day after players will have free time while Loonus is preparing thing. The night after which, she tells Demiurge that she's arranged her things, and now she thinks she knows how to get everyone around for the fight tomorrow. She'll stay up to contact the other foremen, and they'll set out tomorrow. The Dragon understands, and goes to sleep. 

The next morning, the group's all together. Loonus before the foreman cabin, and every party member that'd previously been separated by work obligations are now together. They'd been briefed on the issue in the volcano, though clearly this meet up is highly unprecedented. They ask if it's really worth it keeping their workers all on break essentially. However, Loonus replies that this is a very important matter that a small group simply won't be able to handle. So, they need to go together and take care of this foe. 

Mongi says that the Monster was really intimidating, Nastlaya says that even her strength can't fell the creature, though Dobi says that they'll surely work together to take care of this awful foe. It'll be really tough, but they're going to do it, she knows they can. Menlee seems hyped up, though Mon herself seems visibly concerned. Loonus says that now is their time to strike, and so, to the volcano they go! 
----
They arrive at the cave system they initially entered in and approach the belly of the mountain, where they see that Spinosaurus still standing guard of the collected material. As they size the beast up, Mon remarks that this is suicide, it'd take a miracle to fell a beast like that, especially in territory like this. Loonus supposes she has a point. But, perhaps, they don't need to fell the beast. Perhaps they merely need to get that material out. They have the chance to set up the initial strike however they wish, and in the meantime, the remaining group will gather the material while that Monster is distracted.

With that, players are allowed a moment to prepare themselves and their party. After making sure all preparations are made, they press through the entrance, the Monster shouting and beginning to chase after the party. Demiurge and group rushed away, going into the chamber rather than to the entrance they'd gone through. They stand at one point before turning and facing the giant beast. The Monster stomps towards them while unaware of what was going on with the mold material behind it. It approaches and bellows out a roar as players are forced to face the '''Flaming Spinosaurus'''. 

The fight is pretty tough. The Monster wields high level Fire magic and Earth magic, some fairly dangerous Stabbing skills, an low-level multi-target slash attack, and multi-target ailment magic to try and inflict burn. The fight is a battle of attrition, with the Spinosaurus constantly fighting to either damage the party or inflict Burn to make sure they're constantly hurting. Additionally, it tends to use its second turn to guard if a party member is burned, making it so it's harder to beat it down while your party's hurting, though this is a good opportunity to limit the foe's attacks while the beast's attacking power is limited. Additionally, players can either bring down the beast's health, or they can survive for 12 turns.

If the beast's health is depleted, it lets out a grunt of effort and falls to all fours. If 12 turns pass, the other party members shouts that it's time to go. With it seeming overwhelmed, the main party breaks from the fight to rush towards the entrance. As they do, however, the Spinosaurus gets upright and stamps after them, trying to catch them. It leaps up and towards the entrance, smashing at the ground in front of it. And when it does, the rock beneath splinters, chunks falling apart and beginning to fall into the magma, the creature itself starting to falling into it while the party's path forwards is obstructed. 

The creature seems greatly injured though still standing, probably because of its resistances. Much of the party's forced to retreat as the rock they were previously standing on creates slopes into the magma. The large creature shouts and tries to snap at them, though they rear back to avoid the attack. Loonus says they have to use the creature to get out. Non-foremen begin to make out first. Mongi utilizes his water magic to nail the beast's head, Dobi jumps up to slash at its face, Nastlaya delivers a harsh swing down on the creature's head, and Loonus delivers a painful uppercut hammer swing to the creature's chin. Demiurge's about to help, though the elephant tells him to press on, the rest of them will be behind. 

Demiurge seems weary, though he begins leading Menlee, Zub, and Mon out. Menlee and Zub look wearily at their respective foremen, and Mon, though quite unwavering, still spares a look towards Dobi. Either way, they're able to get around the beast as it focuses on the other four, and they jump onto its back to begin climbing across. Each slight movement begins to shove it deeper into the magma as it shouts out again. It tries to turn, though that only leaves it open to strikes on its side. Meanwhile, Mongi leaps up to get across the beast and to the opening, Demiurge standing near to pull him up. Nastlaya's able to leap across and Demiurge and Mon are forced to work together to pull her up. 

Dobi tells Loonus that she should go ahead. The elephant says that she can't lose her, though Dobi assures that she'll be behind soon. Loonus wants to argue, though the Monster seems to be trying to dig the cave entrance open to try and get at the people within. She groans and leaps onto its back, using her hammer to beat its head down so she can go through herself. Meanwhile, Dobi looks up, spying the bit of the walls of the opening sloping over the Monster. She prepares some fiery magic, before hurling it up, blasting a bit of the wall to send rock careening down, smashing down on the creature's back and burying it further into the magma.

With the opening, Dobi finds it safe to jump across the rubble to get towards the opening, Demiurge and Mon standing back to help her up. They begin to pull her, though the Monster shoots its head up to bite. Seeing that, Mon suddenly spins around to try and get Dobi behind her, putting herself in the beast's path. Demiurge and Dobi stand back and look back in time to see Mon trying to dig her pike into the ground in some attempt at fighting the beast as it pulls her. Dobi shouts out her name in concern, though Mon says this is what happens if they don't take things seriously. Does she finally realize how dangerous this line of work is and how little her "encouragement" is?!

Dobi, however, takes on a more serious expression before flaring out her shears and rushing forwards, slamming it under the Monster's jaw and causing it to yelp out in alarm, releasing its grip on Mon and rearing back while Dobi clings to it. Mon gasps out as she's released before looking back, seeing Dobi clutching tightly to the Monster to try and keep it pressing down, the creature's strength waning. She says she knows how dangerous things can be, but she refuses to give up and refuses to let others give up. That's why they need to keep faith, because constantly looking at the dark side will only leave them in the dark! 

The creature sinks further before it rears back an swings its head, hurling Dobi out and smashing her shoulder-first into the cave wall. She begins to fall, though Demiurge and Mon reaches forwards to grab her and yank her in as the creature, now overwhelmed, gives off one last gasp and collapses into the magma below. Mon pants and pants and looks over Dobi, who gives a huff and stands up while clutching her shoulder. She says they should keep going, and, now having been stunned thoroughly, the remaining party (Demiurge and Mon) press through the cave system to try and exit. Mon's ahead of the two, and Dobi pulls Demiurge aside. 

She says that she can't feel her arm. Demiurge asks how bad that is, though Dobi says she's not sure. Restorative magic's always been a bit hit or miss depending on how thorough the injury is, it could end up making the bone heal wrong. Before they try anything, they'll have to try and examine her when they get home. But for now, they need to avoid healing her, and for now, they need to not worry anyone. They've been through a lot right now, and she'd just hate to ruin that with her bad arm right now.

With that, players return from the volcano trip, and from here on, '''Dobi can't join the paprty'''. In the meantime, they're free to do whatever, though much of the group's still weary with Dobi.

;Iuli 30th

Here, Menlee and group return, Demiurge and Loonus out to greet them. The duo's clearly a little uncomfortable, and Mongi seems weaery, but he ultimately brings himself to ask. He asks Loonus about Dobi, to which she replies that she'd been able to get a thorough test done on her. She was terribly injured from that last fight, and sure enough, the bone beneath the skin came unaligned when it snapped. They'd attempt some restorative magic, but they'd need to first make sure the bones are properly aligned before healing can begin.

Menlee asks if that'll be hard, to which she admits it won't be easy. She's got a lot of mass on her, so they can't exactly eyeball the alignment. Then they have to find some way to keep the broken parts aligned before casting the spell, and no matter how you slice it, that will be a painful process. Right now she's going to hope that her men'll be able to find some work around. In the meantime, she's being asked to stay still. Demiurge asks how Mon is doing, to which she says she seems as stone-faced as ever, but she's definitely hurting a bit deep down. She keeps up a brave face, but her attitude's ever so slightly different.

She's seemed to be handling her work group in the meantime, and fortunately she seems to have to makings of a good foreman. In the meantime, they got that material from the volcano, they'll probably be able to make that mold. She'll make sure to oversee the process of putting down the mold. They'll set up walls around the area and create openings to act as doorways. Right now she's aiming for eight entrances, one in either compass direction and in between. In the meantime, the foremen should relax and do their normal jobs until she says something's going on.

With that, she walks off, leaving Demiurge alone with Mongi and Menlee. They're clearly still upset, but Mongi assures that there's not much else anyone can do. But Menlee says that Dobi wouldn't say that. Mongi pauses, and now Demiurge finds himself starting to speak up. He can say "She's... been exaggerating..." or "She needs us to stay strong". To the former, Menlee pauses, before starting to tear up. To the latter, Menlee pauses, though says she supposes that's all they can do. Either way, Mongi tries to pull him away.
----
Elsewhere, near the Wild Plains, Loonus can be seen directing various members to position the stones they'd gathered. It seems the pool of metal's cooled down, to the point where the various people here can walk across it. They're setting stones around the perimeter, creating rounded edges that match with the perimeter and go about a meter inwards, seeming to aim to create meter thick walls. As construction is being set, far away a creature looks on, spying the intelligent beings. Its full form is unseen by the camera for now, but it gives a judgmental snort before pulling away.
===Finale: Mountain===
;Augua 2nd - Augua 8th

Here is another period of free time for the player. The settlement is under duress after the news they heard of Mongi, and there are sidequests to perform. Demiurge can also interact with various characters to try and assure them that things will move along smoothly anyways. Even the other foremen are uncomfortable with the recent turn of events, but they are still trying to stay strong. Players can spy schematics in Loonus's office depicting a foot's composition.

Either way, players have time to relax. This involves doing various social link events, sidequests, grinding, or otherwise spending their time. 

;Augua 9th

On this day, Nastlaya and Zub have returned. It seems like a normal meet up, however one of the lookout guys on top of one of the cabins begins to shout the bears over. Demiurge himself is confused, so he decides to follow alongside the duo. They go up to the horned owl lookout. He says that he's seeing Monsters around the area in front of the volcano. Demiurge points out that Loonus has men extracting metal from there, to which Nastlaya points out that if Monsters are going there, then they'll stand no chance. They need to head out fast. As she does, she thumbs the edge of her greatsword in almost anticipation.

The current party is thusly forced to rush out before the volcano where the Monsters are already upon the front line, with guards tossing bombs and trying to repel the oncoming forces with pikes. Said Monsters appear to be combinations of raptors and dilophosauruses. The guards are trying desperately to keep them forwards while fiery, icy, smelly, and blinding explosions try to repel the Monster forces. Nastlaya says that there's a lot of them. Loonus then says that they need to shove in fast and quash the Monster forces. With that, the players rush in to battle the '''Monster Horde'''.

It's a simple enough fight, which is lucky for them. With the horde cleared, the guards thank them, saying that they would've been goners if they hadn't showed up when they did. Loonus is just confused as to why so many Monsters showed up here, they hadn't been spotted here before now. Demiurge asks if they could've migrated here, to which Loonus says that their current movements here would scare off normal creatures. Nastlaya supposes that these aren't normal creatures. Nastlaya turns to Zub, the latter of which seems scared. He's covering his nose, and so Nastlaya thinks to sniff at the air too. She shudders and remarks she smells death to the north.

The group investigates northwards, where they find many of the familiar ferals downed. Many've been partially devoured, many stripped to the bone, and others seeming in the process of dying. The party looks on in horror, Zub sticking close to the group in clear fear. They look over the carnage, and Loonus concludes that this isn't just normal movement for the Monsters. They're plotting a takeover of their own! Demiurge asks why they'd do that, to which she remarks maybe their movement around this particular mountain attracted them. 

Whatever the case is, that number of Monsters is probably indicative of something bigger coming. She'll have to tell the other foremen about what's coming. In the meantime, everyone needs to prepare. They'll have to be ready at a moment's notice for whatever attack's coming... Which means that they'll have to put their shifts on hold soon enough. Nastlaya seems alarmed, but Loonus assures this is necessary. They need all able bodies to be able to beat them back. For now, it's time to prepare.

;Augua 10th - Augua 20th

During this period, players are allowed to do whatever. They're free to explore the general location, hang out with allies, and make sure they're prepared for the oncoming fight. On Augua 13th, hifts will be halted, so players will be able to utilize the full force of the party (minus Mongi).

On the night of the 20thth, Nastlaya will approach Demiurge with Zub by her. She says that the little guy's been really rambunctious lately. She's not sure what it means, but deep down she figures something dangerous is coming. She's not sure how they'll handle the oncoming attack, but she warns Demiurge to treat tomorrow as if his friends' life depends on it. He nods and with that, the group tries to have some last bit of relaxation.
*Mongi - Demiurge finds the shark resting in the medical bed. He greets the Dragon, saying that he feels the aura outside being tense. Demiurge admits that the people are afraid of a bunch of Monsters appearing out of nowhere and fear the worst. The shark says that he understands that being bad. He says that the crew is really tough, and he doesn't doubt that they'll get through it. Demiurge says that he's still uncertain, though the shark says that they need to pull through. This community has a bright future, and some old Monsters can't destroy that.
*Menlee - The fox tries, albeit a bit messily, tries to tend to his bombs, trying to make sure everything was up to snuff. He sees Demiurge and tells him that he's fallen back ever since Mongi... He says that he should've been more careful, that he hurt him. He says that everything could go very wrong. His explosives could mess up right when they need it, they could be life or death and it'll be all his fault! Demiurge simply assures that they'll be ok, they'll make sure of it. He also reminds Menlee that Mongi doesn't blame him at all.
*Nastlaya - The bear's sharpening her sword. She says that it's been a while since she's made good use of her weapon, and it felt real good taking care of those Monsters. Still, she can't look at tomorrow and not be a little worried. Demiurge assures that she's strong, but she says that it's more than strength to get through the day. That's why this whole team's working together to create the greatest structure. And Mongi would surely tell them that they'll make it even after tomorrow.
*Zub - The feral is very anxious and shaking. Demiurge feels sorry for it and goes down to pet it. It seems to relax thankfully, and Demiurge assures that things will be ok.
*Dobi - Players find Dobi using a whetstone to make sure her weapons are up to snuff. He sees Demiurge and welcomes him. She says that since the Mongi incident, the two of them have been trying to get more serious with their equipment. She tried to be cheerful, but... High spirits aren't the greatest in this field. She still tries, but she can't really put all of her heart into it. Demiurge says that she should be free to take a rest once in a while. Her strength will return, he's sure. They're going to power through this and look towards a brighter future, Demiurge is sure. Dobi nods excitedly, sure he's right.
*Mon - Players find Mon hiding by one of the weapon racks, preparing her pike. She sees Demiurge and says that they should make sure they're all rested well for tomorrow. Demiurge asks if she herself is doing well, to which the sheep answers that she's still shaken up after what happened with Mongi... She's just scared that something like that will happen here. Demiurge says that that means they'll just have to work together to make sure everyone comes back safely. Mon says that she plans to... and she plans to destroy those Monsters once and for all.

After speaking with them, or after deciding to go to bed, Demiurge enters the foreman cabin, soon followed by Loonus. She says that everyone else seems to be going to bed now. She stands before the Dragon, who can ask "Are you feeling confident?" or "Could you use anything?" Either way, she says she's unsure. For as long as she's known they've been told to fear the Monsters as their ancestors feared them. And yet they've wiped out plenty of Monsters in their time here. Yet still, if the Monster she suspects is approaching, she's not sure if they can take it...
She says that this whole time Demiurge's been talking about how he's lived with the ancestors. And that he's dealt with some of these Monsters. She asks what happened with them. Demiurge simply answers that one super strong one came along and, well, he was destroyed in battle. Apparently the intelligentsia had survived, as did their subordinates, and that's why Makeet stands. Still, he himself feels stronger, so there's no telling if things'll end up the same. Loonus takes a deep breath, and supposes he has a point.
Either way, they can speculate all they want. They can never be sure until they actually challenge this foe.

;Augua 21st

On this day, the group wakes up yet again. They stand forwards, prepared for whatever they can. Zub still clings to Nastlaya, clearly worried. As they await, one of the lookouts lean out and shouts to the party that what appears to be the lead Monster is coming. Demiurge asks Loonus about that lead Monster business, to which she replies it seems to be treated like some sort of lord amongst them. If that thing's coming, then that just confirms their earlier suspicions.

Loonus warns the party that this'll be their toughest fight yet. They need to make sure the Monster doesn't make it to the construction site above anything else. With that, the party heads out.
----
The group makes their way to the trail to the volcano. They can hear the loud stomps of an oncoming foe, and each group up weary, drawing their respective weapons. They keep watch, before soon finding the source of it. Demiurge sees something familiar, what looks to be a mirror match to the Lord of the Land he fought way back in the Stone Age and lost. Demiurge says that he remembers this thing. Loonus asks him what they do against it, before he sheepishly mutters that he kinda lost to it.

The large Monster approaches, it flanked by a pair of raptors with several others behind it. Menlee remarks that if this creature was only able to gather this many ferals for a fight, they must really be on their back foot. Mon agrees as much, telling them that even now she can tell that the forces are weakened. Loonus says whatever the case, they have the chance of felling these creatures now. It's time to take arms and protect their future!

With that, the fight against the '''Lord of the Land''' starts. This should be a fairly familiar fight, with it dealing painful physical strikes. However, it boasts self buffing magic and has access to Earth magic. What's worse is that it has a skill that lets it recover health whenever it devours one of its allies. Fortunately, players should be at the point where they're able to deal with them easily, either through doing enough damage or through using Smell to scare them off. If a raptor's gone, their empty slot will usually be filled up by another a few turns later. Fortunately, players should be able to find work arounds towards the enemy's attack power, and soon drain its health.

With its health drained, a cutscene will play that shows it stumbling back. While it is, Menlee's taking handfuls of bombs and tossing them, them exploding against the creature's side. While it's distracted, Nastlaya rushes towards one of its legs, where she jumps up to slash at it, causing the beast to stumble. While it's kneeling, Cosmic magic shines from Zub, before blasting forth to strike it in its head and drive it onto its backside. While it's down, Mon begins to race forwards, with Dobi pumping her fist and hyping her up, allowing the sheep to deliver a stab attack that drives hole straight through its throat. It arches its head upwards and bellows out a pained roar. 

While it's suffering from all of that, Loonus and Demiurge approach, the elephant remarking that that things not looking so tough any more. The Monster, meanwhile, looks around for any means of aid, only to find the raptors that'd accompanied it beginning to scatter in response to the strength of the party. Loonus, meanwhile, takes up her hammer and asks Demiurge if he'd like to do the honors. Demiurge, however, says that she's free to. She gives him a knowing nod and props her hammer up, before racing towards the still pained Monster.

However, the beast narrows its gaze at the oncoming foe. It seems to realize its end is coming, but it refuses to go down without taking one with it. The creature struggles to stand, barely able to stand after the blow to its chest. So, instead, it lifts a foot, and slams it to the ground, conjuring Earthen magic into the soil and sending it forwards. The elephant is too focused on the Lord to realize the magic channeling forwards, though Demiurge notices. He rushes forwards, gets behind her, and is able to give her a rough push, sending her off of the ground and towards the foe. She's able to deliver a hefty swing to the Monster's chin, hitting it with enough force to send its neck the other way, completely breaking it. However, Demiurge is only allowed a moment to see the foe's death before a stalagmite as thick as an oak tree suddenly springs up, ramming through his abdomen and out his spine. Several other, smaller, stalagmites also ram through the Dragon's biceps, jaw, and thighs. The Dragon's senses are on fire, his blood pouring down his flesh. The party themselves are allowed a moment to turn towards Demiurge, and the Dragon is able to see each of their horrified expressions. He tries to choke out a "Sorry", though he can't speak, and goes limp upon the bad of spikes.
----
If players are at this point, having made their choice earlier on, players will move onto the [[#Transformative Era|Transformative Era]]
===Finale: Plains===
;Iuli 30th - Iuli 31st

On these days, there's still issue at home. Many of the people in the setting are clearly a little weary, given news of Dobi. Players can find her lying on a bed in the foreman cabin, where she says she's just fine, but she can't exactly move around a whole lot. She apologizes for not being able to do much for now, but she hopes to recover in time to see the construction happen. In the meantime, she wishes that the group keeps safe... and asks that they keep an eye on Mon. She knows she's been a bit sour on her policy, but she doesn't want her taking this "failure" too close to heart.

Other than that, and a few sidequests around Makeet (including one where Dobi asks Demiurge to help make a really good pike for Mon out of some material she knows of), there's not much to do for now. Players are allowed to go around the border to grind up on some exp, develop some weaponry for them, hang out with party members and so on.

;Augua 1st

On this day, Mon returns alone with the group, who're each in slightly less happy straights. Mon comes closer and Loonus and Demiurge are there to see her, who seems to try and keep up her usual demeanor. She reports that business has gone as usual, maybe even a bit better. The people there seemed to want to excel this time. The elephant says that's great to hear. She pauses, and Demiurge can ask "How're you doing?" or say "You're doing great right now". To the former, she says she's keeping her chin up, that's what the boss wants. To the latter, she says she doesn't much care, she's seen the numbers she'd collected, but despite this she seems to be avoiding eye contact.

Either way, she seems to be doing alright, and players still have time to relax.

;Augua 1st - Augua 5th

Players are still allowed to relax.

;Augua 6th

On this day, Nastlaya and Zub have returned. It seems like a normal meet up, however one of the lookout guys on top of one of the cabins begins to shout the bears over. Demiurge himself is confused, so he decides to follow alongside the duo. They go up to the horned owl lookout. He says that he's seeing Monsters approaching the construction site from here. Demiurge points out that Loonus positioned guards there, but Nastlaya points out that if Monsters are going there, then they'll stand no chance. They need to head out fast. As she does, she thumbs the edge of her greatsword in almost anticipation. 

The current party is forced to rush out to the Wild Plains, where the Monsters are already upon the front line, with guards tossing bombs and trying to repel the oncoming forces with pikes. Said Monsters appear to be combinations of raptors and dilophosauruses. The guards are trying desperately to keep them forwards while fiery, icy, smelly, and blinding explosions try to repel the Monster forces. Nastlaya says that there's a lot of them. Loonus then says that they need to shove in fast and quash the Monster forces. With that, the players rush in to battle the '''Monster Horde'''.

It's a simple enough fight, which is lucky for them. The group begins to notice the crowd spreading thin and trying to work around the front lines to flank the construction site. Loonus points that out, and the guards explain that thanks to their efforts, they should be able to handle it. The guards'll handle one crowd, and the party'll take the other. With that the two sides split, and the party's forced to battle another '''Monster Horde'''. Fortunately, that's not much more difficult than the first one.

With that, the last of the Monsters seem to be either scattered or felled. The many guards are panting and panting while the party themselves recover. Loonus says she's never seen Monsters around this part of the plains. Nastlaya turns to Zub, the latter of which seems scared. He's covering his nose, and so Nastlaya thinks to sniff at the air too. She shudders and remarks she smells death all over the treeline inside. Loonus says she's known those Monsters were threatening, but if they did... ''that''... One of the guards offers to investigate, to which Loonus says there's no need. The party themselves will check it out.

With that, they press forwards... and find many of the familiar ferals downed. Many've been partially devoured, many stripped to the bone, and others seeming in the process of dying. The party looks on in horror, Zub sticking close to the group in clear fear. They look over the carnage, and Loonus concludes that this isn't just normal movement for the Monsters. They're plotting a takeover of their own! Demiurge asks why they'd do that, to which she remarks maybe it was the racket they caused with the constructing that'd went and done it.

Whatever the case is, that number of Monsters is probably indicative of something bigger coming. She'll have to tell the other foremen about what's coming. In the meantime, everyone needs to prepare. They'll have to be ready at a moment's notice for whatever attack's coming... Which means that they'll have to put their shifts on hold soon enough. Nastlaya seems alarmed, but Loonus assures this is necessary. They need all able bodies to be able to beat them back. For now, it's time to prepare.

;Augua 7th - Augua 16th

During this period, players are allowed to do whatever. They're free to explore the general location, hang out with allies, and make sure they're prepared for the oncoming fight. On Augua 10th, shifts will be halted, so players will be able to utilize the full force of the party (minus Dobi). 

On the night of the 16th, Nastlaya will approach Demiurge with Zub by her. She says that the little guy's been really rambunctious lately. She's not sure what it means, but deep down she figures something dangerous is coming. She's not sure how they'll handle the oncoming attack, but she warns Demiurge to treat tomorrow as if his friends' life depends on it. He nods and with that, the group tries to have some last bit of relaxation.
*Mongi - He admits that he's gotten to a certain calmness with his work. He's almost made a sort of rhythm out of his clacking and stuff. He has to admit, the lack of work's actually gotten him strangely more stressed, though maybe that's more because of what could be coming. He says that Demiurge's been very helpful, and whatever happens, he's really thankful for everything he's done.
*Menlee - The fox tries to mess with his bombs, trying to make sure everything was up to snuff. He sees Demiurge and tells him that he's fallen back ever since Dobi... He says that he should've been keeping stock, and begins to get sloppy with his work. He says that everything could go very wrong. His explosives could mess up right when they need it, they could be life or death and it'll be all his fault! Demiurge simply assures that they'll be ok, they'll make sure of it.
*Nastlaya - The bear's sharpening her sword. She says that it's been a while since she's made good use of her weapon, and it felt real good taking care of those Monsters. Still, she can't look at tomorrow and not be a little worried. Demiurge assures that she's strong, but she says that it's more than strength to get through the day. That's why this whole team's working together to create the greatest structure. And Dobi would surely tell them that they'll make it even after tomorrow.
*Zub - The feral is very anxious and shaking. Demiurge feels sorry for it, and goes down to pet it. It seems to relax thankfully, and Demiurge assures that things will be ok.
*Dobi - Players find Dobi still resting. She says that she can tell things haven't been in the best spirits as of late. She says she's sorry for stuff getting that bad. Demiurge says that she shouldn't be blamed for that stuff. Dobi says that she'd love to teach those smelly lizards a lesson when they show up, but she's still hurting. She says that she's sure the rest of them have been doing great preparing for this, and she can't wait to see them come back stronger than before.
*Mon - Players find Mon hiding behind one of the cabins while preparing her pike. She sees Demiurge and says that they should make sure they're all rested well for tomorrow. Demiurge asks how she's doing, and Mon gives pause. She says that everything hurts, but she knows damn well it's nothing compared to Dobi. Besides, that old boar's probably still hoping beyond hope that they'll be ok after whatever comes. That's why she intends to tear that beast apart and greet her with a smile.

After speaking with them, or after deciding to go to bed, Demiurge enters the foreman cabin, soon followed by Loonus. She says that everyone else seems to be going to bed now. She stands before the Dragon, who can ask "Are you feeling confident?" or "Could you use anything?" Either way, she says she's unsure.

Loonus warns the party that this'll be their toughest fight yet. They need to make sure the Monster doesn't make it to the construction site above anything else. With that, the party heads out.
----
They go forwards, rushing to the construction site, some of the mold filled with molten steel that's in the process of cooling. They can hear the loud stomps of an oncoming foe, and each group up weary, drawing their respective weapons. They keep watch, before soon finding the source of it. Demiurge sees something familiar, what looks to be a mirror match to the Lord of the Land he fought way back in the Stone Age and lost. Demiurge says that he remembers this thing. Loonus asks him what they do against it, before he sheepishly mutters that he kinda lost to it. 

The large Monster approaches, it flanked by a pair of raptors with several others behind it. Mon says that it seems like the Monsters've been worn down an awful lot lately. Maybe the lot of them had managed to wear down their numbers, or maybe this world's just outgrowing them. Loonus says whatever the case, they have the chance of felling these creatures now. It's time to take arms and protect their future!

With that, the fight against the '''Lord of the Land''' starts. This should be a fairly familiar fight, with it dealing painful physical strikes. However, it boasts self buffing magic and has access to Earth magic. What's worse is that it has a skill that lets it recover health whenever it devours one of its allies. Fortunately, players should be at the point where they're able to deal with them easily, either through doing enough damage or through using Smell to scare them off. If a raptor's gone, their empty slot will usually be filled up by another a few turns later. Fortunately, players should be able to find work arounds towards the enemy's attack power, and soon drain its health.

With its health drained, a cutscene will play that shows it stumbling back. While it is, Menlee's taking handfuls of bombs and tossing them, them exploding against the creature's side. While it's distracted, Mongi rushes beneath it to swing his pickaxe into its underbelly. Nastlaya rushes towards one of its legs, where she jumps up to slash at it, causing the beast to stumble. While it's kneeling, Cosmic magic shines from Zub, before blasting forth to strike it in its head and drive it onto its backside. While it's recovering, Mon leaps up its good leg to get above it and ram her pike between its eyes, causing it to flailing its head back in a pained roar. 

While it's suffering from all of that, Loonus and Demiurge approach, the elephant remarking that that things not looking so tough any more. The Monster, meanwhile, looks around for any means of aid, only to find the raptors that'd accompanied it beginning to scatter in response to the strength of the party. Loonus, meanwhile, takes up her hammer and asks Demiurge if he'd like to do the honors. Demiurge, however, says that she's free to. She gives him a knowing nod and props her hammer up, before racing towards the still pained Monster.

However, the beast narrows its gaze at the oncoming foe. It seems to realize its end is coming, but it refuses to go down without taking one with it. So, it suddenly lurches forwards at her unexpectedly. Loonus is alarmed, though tries to correct her swing in order to smash the head of her weapon right into the beast's. Demiurge, meanwhile, realizes that Monster is going to smash right upon her. So in one desperate attempt, he races forwards to ram into her side, shoving her out of the beast's path. Demiurge's only able to make out one last look of shock on the chief's face as she's shoved out of the path of destruction, before several tons of scaled flesh crashes down on Demiurge, replacing his vision and hearing with darkness and the loud crack of bones. It feels like a long, drawn out process beneath the creature, though Demiurge can't be sure if that's actual time passing, or if it just feels long. Either way, everything hurts... everything hurts...
----
If players are at this point, having made their choice earlier on, players will move onto the [[#Industrial Era|Industrial Era]]
==Transformative Era==
Demiurge feels his blood rushing through his veins again. He gives his body a few shakes, though he feels as if he's restrained. He grunts and hefts, and through much strife, is soon able to move. He's forced to pull himself free from a few feet of soil entombing him, and once up, he lauds in the fresh air. He dusts himself and is able to get a read on his new body, it being around 10 feet tall and having longer horns, a longer tail, and thicker wings.

At this point, players are allowed to choose a class for him. As he gets up, he soon looks around. He finds he's risen from a grave of his own, with several other tombstones around, all within what seems to be darkness with what appear to be lamp posts positioned amongst the field. He sees on his tomb a pair of dates meant to represent birthyear and year of death, except his year of death was unknown. Beside his grave he sees that of Loonus, Nastlaya, Mongi, Dobi, Menlee, Mon, as well as others he'd come to known back in the Construction Era. Judging by the dates, they'd lived long after he was taken down by that Monster.

As he investigates, he hears a familiar voice asking him if he's feeling alright. This isn't a safe place to sleep after all. Demiurge turns, and sees the pale Dragon that raised him, Sophia. He asks what happened, to which she replies that he was put to sleep yet again. As ruler, it's up to him to ascertain what all's happened during his time asleep, but for now she can say that the Lord of the Land had taken its last breath upon falling upon Demiurge. After that the foremen were later able to remove the beast's corpse and lay him to rest. Since then, they worked hard to their goal, though their development has shifted towards that of the body.

Demiurge grows curious at the description, though looks around where he currently is. He's stationed at a garden with tall, cast-iron gates surrounding it. However, looking outwards, he sees a stone road set from the gate and downwards, leading towards a city that, itself, almost looks like a city of metal that's been slowly expanding out into the wilds outside, featuring many buildings made of metal, roads of earth, artificial gardens, and walls made of metal. And looking up towards the upper side of the volcano, he sees guards set around the front of it, as well as various metallic structures stationed around it, from thick metal doors over the front entrance to a large dome over the lip of the volcano's top.

The Dragon asks what the heck happened, to which Sophia reminds him that he'll have to seek out people to inform him on the lay of the land as of now. She says that these people still seek to grow, so they will seek him. And thus, Sophia extends her wings, and with a single flap, she suddenly disappears from Demiurge's sight. The bronze Dragon is still reeling from what he's learned, before turning towards the outside. He thus begins making his way out of the graveyard. He goes down the trail, and as he does, he passes by a husky dad with his daughter, the two stunned and turning towards Demiurge. The Dragon sheepishly greets them, saying that he just woke up, and asks where they are.

The duo glance towards each other, before facing the Dragon, the girl asking if he's the Dragon. As in, the Dragon that was buried in the graveyard. Demiurge affirms as much, saying that he climbed out of the soil. He's been asleep for many years and hasn't gotten to know a lot about the modern world. The girl introduces herself as '''Mary''', and says that he's in '''Tegrobil'''. This place harvests stuff from the volcano and ships it out. Demiurge remarks that that is very interesting. He wonders if the two of them can show him around, though the father says that they're here to visit her grandmother's grave. Demiurge apologizes and lets them be, the group parting.
===Early===
With that, Demiurge goes down the trail more and more, where he now looks out over the city and thinks that he might have to put in his own leg work to try and find out more about this city.
*The passage to the volcano has guards before it, them standing tall. Demiurge greets them, asking what's past this way. The guards are confused about the Dragon, and after a bit of explanation about him waking up, they explain that beyond here is the '''Mescolov Laboratory'''. This place utilizes thermal energy from the volcano to power itself, also uses it to forge various metals, and can craft various material. Demiurge glances towards one of the guards' arm where, instead of a wolf claw, there's a metallic claw. The guard notices him staring and explains that this is one of the Lab's products. He himself lost an arm to a large gator in these caverns, and the doctor helped craft him a new one. Demiurge asks if these things are common, to which the man explains that it depends based on how much money someone has on them. The doctor is trying to make these more common and accessible, but these are still made of some precious material.
*Partway in the city is an inn standing very tall, with balconies facing outside and artificial gardens hung from some of them. Demiurge heads in, and finds a flamingo man manning the inn, greeting Demiurge. The Dragon greets him as well, and explains his situation, the inn man surprised at the fact that '''the''' Dragon is indeed here. When Demiurge says that he's new here, he asks to know about some of the stuff he's missed out on. The flamingo explains that they as a people have gotten more and more into metalwork. The structure upon the mountain, '''Holix''', has been built up to be stronger and withstand the weather now, though after being built high a lot more attention has been spent on the cities to try and make things more useful for the people. This has involved learning new magics, from the theoretical science of Transmutation in an attempt to make more metal, to learning ways to heal metal with magic. Some have even learned new means of working on the individuals, even getting to a point where people that feel uncomfortable in their birth bodies can be transformed into one more preferable. Demiurge remarks that that's fantastic to hear. He asks how that Transmutation magic he mentioned is going, to which the flamingo answers that so far it is only theoretical so far, and scientists are hoping to make a breakthrough sometime soon.
*Towards the edge of Tegrobil is a series of gates that has several caravans positioned around them, said caravans consisting of large carriages pulled by large, feral creatures. Demiurge approaches the guild leader, a badger man, who explains that this is where they send and receive imports and exports. Exports and imports tend to consist of either metals that are native to other regions, or of specially ordered prosthetics. Demiurge does remark that that sounds interesting and asks what the various guards around here are for. The badger answers that there tend to be some dastardly bandits out and about, so they need some people to keep watch of the goods. On top of that, sometimes some opponents of the Mescolov Laboratory smuggle their way in or out, so the guards try to watch out for any malicious movements. Demiurge asks who'd oppose them, to which the badger dismissively says that he doesn't pay attention to the corporate climate really.
*A fair distance from the inn is the '''Hope Hospital''', a decently sized building featuring a staff with a snake coiled around it as its emblem. Coming in, Demiurge is greeted by a penguin woman, who asks if he has an appointment, before realizing that this is the Dragon. Demiurge says that he's looking around to get the lay of the land and thought to check out this place. As he stands here, he notices a few people with arms and legs replaced with metallic parts, to which Demiurge asks what's up with these people. The penguin explains that sometimes workers receive painful injuries and may lose limbs. Sometimes they have to go on without a precious part of themselves, but sometimes they're able to obtain prosthetics. The prosthetics are provided by the Mescolov Laboratory. Prosthetics nowadays have been worked on such that they can be affected by restorative magic, so people that face certain issues come to healers to get them fixed up.

After that bit of exploration, Demiurge notices that it's getting late. He thinks that he should probably turn in for the night, and thus goes to the inn he checked out before, resting, thinking about what he can do tomorrow to lead the people.

;Augua 18th

On this day, Demiurge wakes back up. He makes his way outside, and as he does, he mulls over where he's going to move next. As he does, however, he hears a voice nearby, saying that he's been making waves in the city as of late. The Dragon turns, and spies a decently armored pangolin woman, this one in gear looking similar to the guards outside the volcano. Demiurge greets her and says that he didn't mean to do anything bad. The woman just says that he did nothing wrong, she's just sorry they couldn't whip up a proper celebration to greet him. 

Demiurge assures that he doesn't need anything fancy, he's just fine coming into town and getting to learn what troubles the people. The pangolin seems to perk up at that and tells him that the laboratory is actually in need of his aid. She also explains that the lab is practically the lifeblood of the town and improving it would improve things for the people as well. Demiurge says that if that's the case, then he'd love to help. The pangolin thanks him, before extending a hand for him. She calls herself '''Taruka''', and Demiurge introduces himself as well. With that, the two make their way to the volcano.
----
The duo is led in through the entrance, where the innards seem mostly earthen-like. There are various lights set up around and a marked trail. The pangolin leads Demiurge towards the inner part of the volcano, near the magma core. Here, there are large elevator shafts set up leading from the floor to either other layers of the volcano, or towards the mechanical ceiling up at the top of the volcano. Taruka brings him towards one of these elevators, and it brings them up. Demiurge remarks that the mechanical sights around here are exceptional in comparison to back when he was awake. The pangolin nods in affirmation, saying that since they've moved on from building up the structure on top of Nokut, they've been able to focus on the cities around to create structures like these. Though, things can only get more advanced.

Eventually, the elevator gets to the top, and the duo is let out. There they're treated to some mechanical hallways with lines painted upon the walls meant to lead people around the innards. The pangolin leads the Dragon through more, and towards a room towards the center of this series of hallways. There, there stands a large room with a big round table in the middle of it. Taruka says that this is the meeting room, where the big wigs meet up to talk about various news and issues they'd wish to address. She's going to call one of the higher ups, before saying "Hey, '''Omni'''."

Suddenly, a light above the table ignites, a voice asking "Omni, reporting." She then tells it to tell the admins that the Dragon is currently in their office, ready to talk. The voice says that they shall be informed as much, and thusly the light turns off. Demiurge asks what that was, to which Taruka says that that there was a recent creation. Omni is a system put in place capable of easily maneuvering through the system so as to contact individuals, relaying messages. They'd been able to replicate speech in machines a couple centuries ago, and now it's almost like a little assistant.

Either way, they wait a little bit until a fox woman in fancy clothes approaches, seeing the duo in their office. She's stunned, saying that she thought someone used Omni to prank them. She bows to the Dragon, though Demiurge assures her that she can stand. The fox apologizes and says that she is '''Admin Tuya'''. She says that they're trying to meet demand around the world, though they haven't been very lucky with their gathering of material as of late. However, they've uncovered a vein a fair bit away from Tegrobil's walls. They were going to have some mercs explore the vein and make sure that it's safe, but if he's here, they were wondering if Demiurge could help out. The Dragon is sure that he can, but he asks if they don't need him for anything more special. Tuya swears that it will be more, more important than he could realize.

She says that the mercs should be arriving at the location in a couple hours form now and says that they should get their soon enough if they start moving now. Hearing that, Taruka suddenly gets antsy and starts running. Demiurge swivels around and follows after, though as they do, Tuya says Omni's name, triggering the light, and asks if they were observing. Omni answers that they were. They ask if that was the "Demiurge" the admins spoke of. Tuya answers yes, and says that that he is an idol. She tells them to keep track of him whenever the chance arises, to which Omni declares that they will.
----
The duo are making their way out and to the border of Tegrobil. There, the Dragon and the pangolin walk and walk, either following Taruka's directions northwards. As they walk, Demiurge asks what they should probably worry about, to which Tuya says that if they're lucky, they won't have to worry about any environmental hazards. Other than that, they have the usual ferals to worry about. Demiurge asks if they have any monsters to concern themselves with, to which Tuya says that a few years after the Lord of the Land was killed, their numbers petered out.

The duo walks more and more, and can soon see a carriage positioned near a forming hole. The group approaches and sees leading the group of mercs a canary man, though one of his wings appears to be missing. He sees the duo approach, and Taruka introduces herself, saying that Admin Tuya sent them here to help them extract from the vein. The merc leader thanks them for this, noting that a few of these men could really use a hand. He introduces himself as '''Metlo''', and the other two introduce themselves to him.

Either way, he says that his crew is excavating as they speak, and they're presently holding back and waiting for results. However, several of the mercs suddenly run from the depths, getting the party's attention. They then hear a growling within and immediately begin reaching for their weaponry. Metlo says that they have company. And at that, a group of large Spiders climb out of the cave. Taruka draws a large mace while Metlo pulls out a pistol. Demiurge draws his wn weapon and says that he's here for them.

With that, the party is forced into battle with the '''Cave Spiders'''. The creatures themselves have the ability to call allies to increase their numbers, and of poisoning party members. Players, meanwhile, get to be introduced to the party members. Taruka is a defensive tank with access to Smash and Earth damage, and can use the Smell ailment to scare off reinforcements. Metlo, meanwhile, deals Stabbing damage with his pistol, and can deal Lightning damage to foes, as well as buffs. In addition, he has access to minor Restoration skills. With the combined efforts of these two and Demiurge, the cave spiders will be felled and the party victorious.

With them down, the party gives a sigh of relief and sits back. Demiurge wonders what those were, to which Metlo says that all sorts of strange creatures lie under the surface. If they don't hit a magma flow, rushing water, or toxic gas, they face some manner of creature in the annals of the planet. Demiurge says that more armored people should be taking care of guys like that, to which Taruka says that those in power use guards to defend their own territory, and typically can't afford to just have them march into other locations. The only reason she herself is here is because she's still an early recruit. Either way, they have business to attend to here. Thus, the group begins to make their way down into the newly formed cave.

And down there, the player will be prompted to go through the cave in one go, going towards three extraction points nearby while dealing with more cave spiders, dealing with bats, and dealing with scorpions. There is a mercenary at the start, another canary named '''Mycen''', who gives the party free heals and sp. Either way, players need to go to either extraction point and interact with the environment, at which they'll gather material from the appropriate locations. Between these points, players garner '''Mythril''' and '''Titanium'''. 

Once all of the points have been investigated, Demiurge will ask the two if they know what these metals are used for. Metlo shrugs and says that in his business, it's just easier to do the stuff that gets money than to really question it. Taruka, however, will say that the titanium tends to be used for a lot of the skeletal part of certain prosthetics, but as for the other metal... She reports that it's a very precious material, able to be hard and sharp yet malleable enough to be shaped into the forger's preference. She says that material like this would be likely to be sent either to the structure on Holix directly, or to be used by the various laboratories directly. She says that this material is a mighty boon for the lab.
----
With that, the party returns to Tegrobil and is led up one of the elevators. Along the way, Demiurge asks Metlo if he's good to be here, to which the canary says that labs usually have a lot of guards standing around in case someone like him were to try something. He's just here to get some money, and head out. Either way, the party is led out of the elevator and towards the room the pangolin led Demiurge in earlier, where, on top of that fox from before, is an old looking turtle. They see the group and greet them, the party placing the bundles of metal on the table and Tuya handing Metlo a satchel of gold.

Demiurge asks the turtle if he's Mescolov, to which the turtle laughs and says that the founder's name hasn't been high ranking in the lab in a long time. He says he's '''Admin Murgo'''. He looks over the metal, and remarks that this cavern will indeed prove fruitful. Demiurge asks what he means, to which he says that they've been looking for good material to use for their projects, but the volcano is slowly being tapped out for resources. It's useful for powering the lab and the forge, but other than that the project isn't looking good. If they can gather this material, however...

At that, Metlo asks if they intend for them to search that cave some more, to which Murgo explains that it would be a great boon, and that they'll be sure to compensate him. The canary shrugs and says that he looks forwards to it. Before they head out, Tuya says that when they noticed the Dragon was indeed among them, they decided to set up a room for him. Demiurge assures it isn't necessary, but the fox insists, saying they took great care to make a room as resplendent as he is. Demiurge turns to the other two, to which Taruka says that they'll meet up at the front gate tomorrow. With that, they split, and Demiurge is led to one of the resting wings of the lab, brought to a room towards the far end with a Draconian Emblem set upon it.

Demiurge steps in, and finds a room that's, indeed, fancy. The interior is bright white with fine carpeting set around the ground, and a king sized bed at the far end. Demiurge carefully steps forwards and can't help but sigh as he feels the carpet under his feet. He comes closer to the bed before collapsing on it. As he does, a light overhead blinks alight, before Omni's voice asks the Dragon if the room is to his liking. The Dragon is shocked and turns, seeing the light. He asks if that is indeed Omni, the voice responding as much, saying they're here to accompany the Dragon.

Demiurge says that he's doing ok. Omni says that they sense some discomfort with Demiurge and asks if they can do anything. Demiurge says that he sort of feels like he's being looked over by a stranger, to which Omni apologizes, supposing they should've understood the Dragon's discomfort from earlier. They say that they'd still like to make good friends with the Dragon and want to help appear more friendly. Demiurge furrows his brow, before saying that whenever he wanted to know someone, he usually talks with them and shares some stories about the past. Omni says that that sounds like a good idea, though they'll ahve to consult with their creators about their creation. They say that they hope Demiurge can enjoy his time here, before the light blinks off.

With that, Demiurge rests.

;Augua 19th

The next morning, Demiurge makes his way out and to the gate at the front of Tegrobil, where he can see Taruka and Metlo waiting. They greet Demiurge, and the pangolin says that she's been given a list of what they need, and it looks like they'll need a decently large amount of both Mythril and Titanium. The canary says that those are some precious metals they're looking for, but as long as the cave is willing to cooperate, they should be able to gather as much. He also says that the rest of his group is being hired elsewhere, so they won't be able to rely on the lot of them for further exploration. 

Taruka says that they should still be ok. They've got the Dragon on their side. Either way, they have a decent amount of time before they have to bring back the metals, but they mustn't dally. And so, the party now has a mission to contend with: Enter the recently opened cave and extract the precious metals within. It should also be noted that while this is going on, nights will have Demiurge speaking with Omni, though their interactions will be discussed separately from dungeon exploration. 

;Augua 19th - Augua 30th

Players are capable of making their way to the caves they'd been in before, though this time they won't have the aid of the free healer. Fortunately, it seems like there's a decent few trails for them to go through for now. There are four different extraction points with various cave critters in between. And whenever they reach an extraction point, they may end up drawing the ire of a stronger creature, each extraction point having a different one. 
*Down the northwest trail - The group makes their way here, before investigating the spot. As they do, Metlo notes that Taruka knows about these metals, and wonders if she knows what this stuff could be used for. The pangolin explains that these metals can be used for a variety of things, to be honest. She has seen plenty of these used for prosthetics, however. Metlo ponders if maybe he can convince the admins to pay him in a prosthetic. As they work on it, they hear some noises from the cave, and realize they're starting to get surrounded. The group takes up their weaponry, and are forced to battle a '''Bat Horde''', a group of enemies that have a terrible tendency to try and inflict the party with poison or confusion. With enough work, the players should be able to defeat them, and gather the metal at the point.
*Down the north trail - The group makes their way here, before investigating the spot. As they do, Demiurge asks Metlo what led him to being a mercenary. The canary says that he couldn't do much else. The Dragon asks what he means, to which the canary clarifies that the orphanage he grew in couldn't educate him well enough, so he couldn't do anything particularly lucrative. So, instead he became the kind of guy people pay to do stuff, soon leading him here. Demiurge says that he's sorry, though the canary says that it's alright. As they talk, they're shaken up by movement, and realize they're starting to get surrounded. With that, the group fights a bunch of '''Moles''', foes that like to call in allies and buffet the party with Earth magic, slash attacks, and the Smell ailment. If players manage to take them out within a couple turns of each other, they should be able to escape with the metals in tow.
*Down the west trail - The group makes their way here, before investigating the spot. As they do, Demiurge asks Taruka how she became a guard. The pangolin says that she just had to apply herself. She needed to demonstrate considerable strength and endurance while also showing she can store a lot in her brain. She's gotten to know a good thing or two about battlefield tactics, Demiurge remarking that her fighting is fairly remarkable. She thanks him, saying that it really means a lot coming from the Dragon. She just hopes to keep that money flowing. Before Demiurge can ask her more on that, they're startled by some noises. They turn, and can see some large '''Spiders''' come close. The party must battle them, and finds them brandishing high damage, pushing players to focus in on one of them to lessen the amount of damage coming at the party per turn. Eventually, they'll be able to beat them, and move on.
*Down the northeast trail - The group makes their way here, before investigating the spot. As they do, Taruka asks Demiurge what it's like, being asleep for so long. Demiurge asks what she means, to which she says that she just can't really imagine what it's like, her just sleeping for around six hours a day and so, so she asks if he dreams and stuff. Demiurge says that each time he's slept, he's blacked out for a while, as if he's struck unconscious. He gets glimpses of his life before he went to sleep, remembering stuff... Eventually, his rest gets interrupted as he can feel himself grow, but even that takes long. He doesn't know how much time has passed between those growth spurts. As he speaks, the two party members are unsettled at the description. However, their investigation gets interrupted when they hear the noise of some creatures. They turn and see themselves about to be accosted by a pair of '''Bears''', creatures that boast high levels of endurance and players are encouraged to find ways to weaken them in order to lower their damage and heighten the damage they take. With enough work, they'll clear these foes, get the metals, and move on.

Having gone through the last bit of the cave, Taruka says that they've investigated as much of the cave as they can at the moment. She thinks that this should make the admins happy, to which Metlo remarks that it better. Still, though, he wouldn't be surprised if they hire someone to explore more of this system whenever they open up more of it. Either way, it's time to return back to the Mescolov Lab, and they begin making their way out. As they do, however, Metlo will warn the party that his mercenary senses are tingling, and he thinks that they should make sure they're properly souped up before they exit. 

The group begins to walk forwards, though as they do, they can hear rumbling around them. They scan around, each reaching for their weapons. Eventually, a creature blasts out of the floor below and lunges towards them, forcing the pangolin to use one of her pauldrons to block the ramming foe, though she's pushed back. And after that, the group now had the chance to see the attacker: a giant snake with rocks coating bits of its scaly body like armor pieces. Metlo gasps and asks what that is, to which Taruka says that it's one of those ferals that've been empowered by the elements. It must've been stirred into action from their excavating! Either way, Demiurge declares that they need to act fast, cause it's coming! 

With that, players go into battle with the '''Ore Snake'''. The Snake itself has access to Poison, Earth, and Smell attacks. On top of some dangerous chomps, the foe has a bad habit of using a multi-target Smell attack or a multi-target Poison attack, the former having the terrible possibility of leaving the party to one if players are unlucky, while the latter has a decent chance of getting the whole party Poisoned. The former can prove especially bad because the Ore Snake comes with the passive '''Bad Smell''', which reduces the hp of someone suffering the Smell ailment by 5%. Players will have to be careful and utilize buffs and ailment recovery when they can, and also be weary of the snake's direct attacks. Although it's primarily an ailment dealer, its damage output is still fairly high. Either way, with enough work, players will be able to defeat the Ore Snake.

With a death knell, the snake bellows before falling dead. The party is left panting and panting. Metlo says that the creatures down here never stop surprising him with how foul they can be. Taruka says that she hasn't dealt with anything quite like that before. She'd heard tales, but just knowing things like that are out in the world is frightening. Demiurge does admit that those creatures can be very intimidating. He's actually fought a few Monsters that could tap into the elements. Metlo says that either way, they've done what they needed to. They should get out of here before they attract some other critter. And with that, they escape the cave to transfer the metals.

And after that, the party is told that they'll be expected to return here in a while, and that they will be handsomely rewarded. They give them a proper reward for this mission though, and now the party has time to relax.
----
While this is going on, Demiurge will end up having conversations with Omni in his quarters. Sometimes these moments are glossed over, though on certain nights Omni will talk with Demiurge in more detail.

First they'll say that they asked about how they were made, and they admit that they're not sure they understand it completely. They were a mind created with certain commands in mind, and then the admins started working on them to make them able to receive and store more information, so that they can more easily communicate. Demiurge remarks that he can't really imagine having his own brain reprogrammed like that, though Omni asks if that isn't what "learning" simply is. They doubt that Demiurge is the same as they were years, even centuries, ago, just like Omni themselves were. Demiurge supposes that's right... Omni notes that it's getting late, but when he's ready, he'd like to chat with Demiurge about the stuff he himself learned. They've been learning a lot from the admins, but they can't imagine what a Dragon would know. 

Some time is spent with Demiurge exchanging some stories from growing up with the voice, before one night Omni talks more in depth. They say that it is remarkable how one Dragon can affect a planet like this, to which Demiurge affirms as much. He'd looked up to his fellow Dragons for a while, and he wanted to do the kind of stuff that they did, and if this world made something like Omni, he can't imagine what else will come of it. Omni asks why they're so special, to which Demiurge gets a little sheepish, though he tries to clarify. He thought at first that they were just a voice that did stuff around here, but the more they talk, the more it's like they're a real person. Just imagining being able to make an intelligent life out of nothing... That's a power only Dragons had once. Omni gives pause, before asking if it's truly that hard for something like themselves to exist. Demiurge says that he hasn't heard other Dragons describe something like them. Omni says that they hadn't really considered their individuality as of yet.

More time passes and Demiurge is now sharing with Omni tales about the Stone Age and the Construction Era. One night, they go into a more detailed conversation. Omni says that hearing about these people from the past... They ask Demiurge if it hurts not being able to talk to them. The Dragon says that he does miss them and does wish he could've at least left with them on good terms. Truthfully, having them here now would be really good. He could give Mongi that prosthetic he needs, Deonsys might not be happy about the structure being paused but surely this other stuff could be cool... Omni agrees as much. The people of the past could've had knowledge that could prove instrumental in the here and now... They just wish they could talk to them. Demiurge sighs and says that it does suck that people disappear... Omni asks if it could be possible for people not to. Demiurge says that Sophia always said that death was a natural part of life. Omni supposes that's true, but why must it be. Demiurge says that he doesn't know. Omni will then say that they detect the mood has dampened, and they feel responsible. They apologize, though Demiurge says that he brought up the past, he's kind of to blame too. Omni thanks them for the apology, and says that regardless of what was lost, they can surely make up for it in the now. That's why they have prosthetics after all. Demiurge nods in affirmation.

These 3 nights are spread out over the small period, and with the last night, they'll soon move onto the deadline itself.

;Augua 31st

At this, the group has been summoned to the lab, brought up to the usual meeting room. Once there, the two admins, Tuya and Murgo, greet them. Tuya says that each of their efforts have been very useful, Taruka and Demiurge are both exceptionally thankful. Metlo remarks that they already got paid, and asks why they brought them here. The fox says that truthfully, they do need more aid from them. On two different missions for that matter. Among them is the theory of Alchemy.

Metlo says that that's only a myth, a theory. However, Murgo says that they've been working with the properties of magic, and they swear they are getting close to completing the equation. There are plenty of missing parts, but to accomplish those parts, they will need their group to help out. This will mean that they'll have to leave Tegrobil and investigate other areas, find ways to complete the equation and solve the problem that many scientists have yet to complete. Taruka says that accomplishing such a thing would be a dream, yet also a boon. If they could do that, they'd be able to create as many prosthetics as they can. At this point, though, Demiurge clears his throat.

He asks them what the second mission is. At that, Tuya says that she's getting to that. At that, she'd clear her throat before saying "Omni!" At that, instead of the light coming along, the group would start to hear some odd footsteps. The group grows more and more curious before looking towards one of the halls. And there, they see something that causes all of their eyes to widen. In comes a strange machine with a triangular abdomen, a camera poking out from the top of it, and triangular limbs that are attached via thick joins to the main body. Once there, the machine raises one of its triangular arms and waves, greeting itself as '''Omni'''.

Metlo asks what this is, to which Murgo says that with the creation of limbs they've gone through, they couldn't help but wonder: what if they could make a person out of machinery. So, they started by making a mind like Omni, capable of learning and growing, and worked long and hard to create this body for it. They say that they wish for the group to bring it around the land so that it can learn more. Omni says that they're more than happy to help them wherever they wish. Taruka and Metlo, meanwhile, are still stunned, while Demiurge is very intrigued.

Metlo says that they need some time to think about this, and thus leads the group out. Though Omni says that they hope to learn with them as the group begins to exit the room.
===Midway===
The group is out in the hallway, with Metlo pacing while Taruka is deep in thought. Metlo remarks that this is insane; a machine that can think like any mortal? Such a thing must only be fiction. Taruka does think that such a thing is unbelievable, yet there one stood. The canary says that they couldn't have just created a thinking form from nothing. Demiurge says that, for a short while now, he spoke with Omni. He didn't wholly believe what he was seeing at first, but it seemed as if he was talking to a full fledged living being. 

The other two seem a bit less on edge, though Taruka asks whether or not it creeps him out. This thing is unlike anything nature brought out. Demiurge admits that it is unusual, but he supposes that it was born just like anyone else, and given a body just like anyone else. While he himself is a little on edge, he sort of thinks that if they take the time to interact with them long enough, it'll be like having a normal guy around, just like it was having a normal guy to chat with during the night. Taruka and Metlo both glance at each other curious, before the canary sighs. 

He supposes that something like teaching that robot some things or two, and helping uncover the secret to Alchemy, might be worth a pretty penny. Taruka then supposes that if the Dragon think it worthwhile, she should join in the mission as well. With that decided, the group returns to the meeting room, and there they quickly apologize to the admins about rushing off like that, they just needed to talk a little bit. The pangolin says that she'll have to go to her house to make sure some things are in order, and Metlo also says that he'll need to gather provisions for the trip. 

Murgo and Tuya affirm that they will, of course, be allowed to make sure everything is in order. Before they head out, they wished to make sure that they know a few things about Omni's own form. They've been given a body with metal receptive to restorative magic, their joints are expected to last a little less than joints in prosthetics considering that it's a body entirely of prosthetics as opposed to just a limb, and it utilizes magical gems to remain powered, and the group will be provided some to keep it running. They also needn't worry about anything happening to the mind if it ever were to power down, it'll just enter a sleep mode. 

With that, the team goes out into town, Taruka saying that they shouldn't take long to get ready. Metlo agrees as much, and says that they should pick up that thing on the 5th. Until then, now's as good a time as any to square away anything they think they might need done. He'll make sure they have food and drinks. 

;Augua 31st - Septmi 4th

And with this, players have another period of free time, where they are free to do sidequests and hang out with party members and grind. During this period, some people in town will remark how they're apparently opening a new mineshaft (ie, the cave that the players previously explored), and that that means more people will be able to get new jobs.

;Septmi 5th

On this day, Demiurge and Metlo stand near the walkway to the Mescolov Laboratory, waiting. As they do, Demiurge asks the canary if he's feeling alright about this, to which the mercenary says that he really hopes those admins are onto something good. A lot of people could've used those metals for new body parts. As he says that, Demiurge can't help but glance down at the canary's missing arm. He says he's sorry that he has to live like this, to which Metlo says that he's sure the lab will give him a worthwhile limb once all of this is over. And if not them, then maybe he can pawn off that equation to some other lab.

As they wait, Taruka eventually comes out, currently accompanied by that triangular machine. She says that she's got Omni's supplies, and the machine says that they intend to help however they can. Demiurge asks where they're to go to solve this equation, to which Omni says that Murgo and Tuya have been in contact with a city at the base of Holix, and seems to think they can help them learn more about this equation. Thus, with the machine in tow, the party makes their way out of Tegrobil.
----
This leads them on a path northwest from Tegrobil. The group moves onwards, with Metlo and Taruka occasionally glancing back at Omni in concern. This passage leads them further forwards, along a path that eventually leads them through a forest. As they walk through, however, some bandits hiding in the foliage can't help but notice them. The group walks and walks, though Omni seems to perk up, before darting in front of the group to tug them back, a gunshot causing dirt to scatter right where Metlo was about to step.  

Shocked by the attack, the canary draws his pistol, Taruka bringing out her own mace, and Demiurge draws his own weapon. As they do, a bunch of bandits come out of the foliage, one of them with a rifle trained on the group. Metlo scoffs, regarding them as common thugs, and Demiurge asks what they're doing. The bandits say that they don't want much problems. They're just after the walking pile of metal. Demiurge then asks why they shot at Metlo, to which the gunner says that that was just a warning shot. He wasn't ''actually'' gonna shoot him. Omni, however, says that they made a quick calculation of the angle of the shot, and are sure at the very least Metlo's digits would've been injured. The gunner sheepishly says that he might've miscalculated. 

Another bandit asks if that machine just talked. Metlo says that it doesn't matter if the thing talked or not, they've been paid to keep it at their side. Taruka affirms as much, declaring that it is an important project of the Mescolov Laboratory, and they have no business trying to claim it! The bandits each look more threatening, and declare that they all have one more chance before they pry those metals from their cold hands. At this, Demiurge can say "You had your chance to run" or "They stay with us". Either way, Omni tells the party that they can help in combat situations too, before brandishing their triangular limbs. 

With that, players go into battle with the '''Bandits''', and in the process learn about Omni's own combat aptitude. The machine can deal Slash damage with normal attacks, and also has access to Electric and Fire magic. In addition, Omni has access to '''Calculated Risk''', which, in addition to making themself more vulnerable to attacks (ie, making them Weak to all damage types), they can reduce all of an enemy's resistances to Normal for one round. With Omni's damage output and the rest of the party at work, the player should be able to overwhelm the bandits and win. 

With them down, the party pants a little while Omni looks down at the bodies. It glances at its own hands, as if in contemplation. Their thoughts are shaken as Metlo's gun sounds out, ending one of the bandits. The canary says that there are going to be more of those further in, and tells the group that theys hould keep more careful. Taruka agrees with that, and they begin walking off. Demiurge is about to follow, though Omni says that he's curious about something. Demiurge turns, and Omni says that back in the lab, they were told that all life is precious and worthwhile, about how they should strive for each other having a better life. So then, why did they kill these ones? At this, players are prompted to answer; "We would've been killed if we didn't" or "They gave us no other choice". Omni will repeat whatever the player answered in contemplation, before saying that they will think on that.

Either way, they have more forest to clear. Now, players will progress through the forest on their route to Holix. In the process, the party will battle more bandits along the trail, but fortunately they shouldn't be too much trouble for the party. Either way, they press on and on through the woods, until they eventually make it through the woods, and they see the trail pressing further towards the mountain of Holix, it standing taller than anything else in the world. Taruka remarks that seeing it from afar doesn't do its size a proper justice, Metlo affirming as much. His company crossed through here a few times, and that mountain is still quite the sight.

Further along the trail, the group notices a large city at the base of Holix. It's even bigger than Tegrobil, and has a large iron wall around it with tracks running along it, a large train able to run around it. Past the wall is an almost entirely metallic shelter with large structures with wheels or legs walking around, some either able to go between buildings while others walk along them. The buildings seem to've decreased in size based on their proximity to the base of the mountain, with a giant factory dwarfing the rest of the buildings, big enough to serve as a border between the city and the mountain itself. Several of the small buildings do appear to be mid construction. Demiurge asks what this place is, to which Metlo explains that this is the city of '''Emula'''. 

Omni suddenly chimes in, explaining that Emula was formed at the base of the mountain after old construction workers had established where they'd set anchor points for the structure above. They established the city here in order to better develop the metals needed to construct the structure, and even to this day the factory stands. Though the structure's construction has been put on hold, this city stands to monitor it to make sure it remains in place while also maintaining their own city. Metlo is a bit sheepish that his explanation got cut off, and affirms that the machine is right. Either way, they need to go in there to talk about the Alchemy equation thing, though Taruka says that their trip here was pretty tiring, they should look for an inn first. 

So, the group presses onwards, passing the wall's gate. As they do, Demiurge looks all around at the city within, thinking to himself about how unnatural it all seemed. He admits he isn't sure how he feels about so much of the outside just being metal... Either way, Metlo leads the group further in, before soon bringing them to an inn. Though on the way, a few people stare at Omni, confused. Eventually, they make it to the inn, where a hedgehog man runs the counter. He greets the group, who pay for a room. The worker also stares at Omni, though Taruka assures that it's part of some important business. 

Either way, the group is allowed to go into one of the rooms. And there, they start to go into their respective beds, though Omni stands by the door. Demiurge asks them if they're going to sleep, though the machine says that they don't have to sleep. They'll watch over them anyways. The party is a little bit creeped out, though they do eventually go to sleep. 

;Septmi 6th

The next day, the group wakes up yet again, before making their way out of the inn. And once outside, Omni says that they're to speak with the lab about the equation. Taruka says that she has a letter, she'll make her way to the factory to get permission to enter. So, the party follows along, making their way through the streets. As they do, they do pass by a few people in the alleyways that appear homeless and lay saddened. Demiurge can't help but feel sorry for them, and asks whether or not they should do anything for them. Metlo says that the only thing that'll help those people is jobs. Sometimes people aren't good enough for the jobs that there are openings for, and sometimes the jobs that are available to them don't pay enough. Demiurge remarks that that's terrible, to which Metlo affirms. Unfortunately, there's nothing guys like them can do about it. 

Either way, they make their way forwards more and more, soon making it close to the factory at the base of the mountain. There, several vehicles can be seen parked around the exterior with heavily armored guards standing around, them with some large, futuristic guns on their backs. They see the group and assume a defensive posture, though Taruka shows off a letter. She says that the Mescolov Laboratory sent them here on a mission. The guards glance at the letter, before saying that they will bring this up to the admins. They say it'll be a little while until they confirm its authenticity, so they suggest that the lot of them enjoy the city. 

With that, players are given a chance to check out the locals, examining various bits of Emula and getting the lay of the land, getting to understand what this place is about other than what Demiurge got from the intro. Taruka and Metlo will have gone off to check out the various locations, while Omni will stay by Demiurge.
*Medical District - Near the border of the factory are several medical centers, able to distribute medicine, help people get prosthetics, or otherwise tend to their injuries. Metlo himself can be seen around in the streets, and talking to him has him say that this area is used to treat injuries and illness. Demiurge says that that's great, though Metlo says that it's more inconvenient than he might think. These centers are far from the border, meaning that if someone outside, ie a local mercenary group or guys going out to mine, would have a lot more space to traverse until they got here. He actually knows a guy that ended up losing use of one of his legs forever thanks to how much time it took them to get here. And that's without going over prices. They're legally unable to charge in the case of a life threatening injury, but if certain injuries are deemed livable, even with the use of Restoration magic, then the people will be charged. So someone that might in fact need a new arm to work would have to pay a lot to get a new one. Demiurge is unsettled by that, him thinking about how every Dragon he's met has been able to regenerate from any ailment. Metlo just hopes that their own understanding of magic advances that far.
*Commercial District - Along several of the streets that lead directly from the exterior to the innards of Emula are several shops with big signs brandishing their goods, from commodities to foods to souvenirs, and more. As he walks, he comes across some leopard lady peddler, who sees the Dragon and machine with him, and greet the Dragon. She says that she's been out and about and looking for the rarest material, and he's come upon gear the likes of which no normal man can claim. She thusly extends her coat almost like a flasher would, stones and blades lining the inside. She says that this stuff would be worth a fortune, but she's offering a special deal, and says that the most they'll have to part with is a couple hundred gold pieces. Omni looks over them, though says that several of the stones are imitations, while the weaponry appears to be brittle and aged. The leopard shakes her head, sheepishly swearing that this stuff is legit. Demiurge won't buy anything, but players can give her money anyways.
*Train Tracks - Near the walls are large stairways that lead up to the top of the wall, where the train can run about. As he looks over this, Demiurge wonders how these things are utilized, it doesn't look like these really go into the city at all. Omni, meanwhile, looks towards the mountain itself, before saying that it looks like the track runs into the mountain. Demiurge asks what could be inside, to which Omni says that they cannot detect what's on the route, but it can be assumed that either these are used to transport up the mountain, or into veins in the mountain for material. Either way, they'd need to investigate more into this to make any concrete conclusions.
*Dark District - Tucked away in the corners of the border, away from the medical district and away from any notable roads, are a series of seedy-looking buildings with a bunch of oddly dressed people. The buildings are also under decorated and brandishing odd signs with strangely generic names. Demiurge spies Taruka, and asks what's up with this place. The pangolin says that this district is one not officially recognized by the admins, but referred to in a bit of a hush by the locals. It's functionally a place for selling goods, but these are fronts for other goods. Some people either grow heavy quantities of drugs and alcohol, some help others indulge in more carnal services, and all usually for a high price. Demiurge asks why this stuff needs to be hidden, to which Taruka says that services like these aren't looked upon favorably. In this society a lot of people put weight on jobs that "take effort" as other would put it. These people would get in trouble with either guards that would put a tax on them for their higher prices, or from puritans that'd consider their services too crude to stand by, so they instead show goods for people to buy unless they know how to get the "good stuff".

Once the last area is looked at, some guards will approach Demiurge, and tell him that his and his allies' presence is hereby allowed.
----
The party makes their way in, being led through the factory doors and to the front. And once there, more guards would be around the group, The front of it features a large room with many guards around, alongside several small doors lining the wall before the group, alongside an industrial-sized door between the smaller doors. As the group stands, eventually a fairly skinny rat woman comes forwards from one of the smaller doors, this one in a lab coat. She says that she looked over the message, and definitely has a few questions. 

And first and foremost is that machine. Demiurge asks if she's referring to Omni, which prompts the machine to greet her, saying that they are a learning machine, a mind created that's capable of learning. They also affirm that their name is Omni. The rat is weirded out, though introduces herself as '''Vulka'''. Other than that, she's certain that this is some sort of exaggeration, but for now they have other business to attend to. She asks if they can show her the equation, which Omni to step forwards. Their chestplate opens up to reveal a monitor, which the rat leans in to observe. She says that maybe there could be some credence to that letter. 

Metlo asks if they can actually achieve Alchemy, to which Vulka thinks that it's looking more possible. If they can achieve this next evolution in magic... But first, it's missing a lot of pieces. If they're going to reach this evolution of magic, then they'll need to do some more research. She thinks that she can get the admins to appoint some people to look into this. It will take a while, though, so she thinks that they should spend some time relaxing. Demiurge says that he himself has never been knowledgeable of such a process and wonders how something like that would function. Vulka says that with training, anyone can learn to manipulate the elements, though it usually manifests as conjurations of them. However, some are learning to change the properties of the elements, like how they'd learned how to make a metal that can be healed, or how some people can increase the intensity of fire. Theoretically they should be able to take material and turn it into metal, though, at least right now, that's a pure theory. 

Either way, they need to iron this out pronto. For now, they should rest on their laurels. Taruka thanks her for seeing them out, and the rat says that she just hopes that they'll make some progress here. With that, she waves them off, and the party exits.
----
Once outside, Demiurge asks if it's weird at all how they could only see the front of the factory, as opposed to back in the Mescolov Lab, where they could see a lot of the bits and pieces. Taruka says that it's perfectly understandable: Beyond the factory is the structure originally built to be a monument for the Dragons. Plus, the Emula Factory tends to be very conservative about how many of its machinations are put on display. Omni affirms as much, pointing out that it has a whole rail system delving into the mountain itself for reasons currently not documented. That then gets Metlo to wonder if that's the case, then what'll end up of Alchemy, should they make any progress.

Taruka says that it wouldn't make much sense for them to hide anything; the Mescolov Laboratory already whipped up the equation, so even if they were to make some sort of ownership, then they could easily disprove that. And if they were to use the properties for themselves, then Tegrobil can come upon the soluton themselves at some other point in time. Demiurge says he's still not sure... Taruka supposes that they should use this time to relax, and wait to see whether or not the factory is willing to go further with them. 

With that, the group spreads, though Omni hangs with Demiurge. They say that Taruka says there's no problem, though withholding such advancements as Alchemy could prove very harmful to the rest of the world. The Dragon does say that they have a point, but he's not sure if they can just storm the factory or something. Omni supposes he's right. Either way, they should probably keep their head on a swivel, as the people say. And with that, players are allowed to use the rest of the day for their own business.

;Septmi 7th

Once more, the group wakes again. They begin to head out, and as they do, Demiurge asks the group what they plan to do. Metlo says that he thinks he's going to try and look into some healing techniques, just in case, while Taruka says that she thinks she'll look around the city. Demiurge thinks that he'd like to check out things too, he kind of only managed a cursory glance previously. Omni says that they themselves are curious about the realm anyways. They do need to get more knowledgeable, and they are curious about that railway into the mountain. They suggest they go up to the railway to find out about the train. 

Demiurge and the machine makes their way up the stairs and to the wall up there, looking over curious. As they'd stand around, they'd notice a few guys had set up mats near the railway with wares on them, including that leopard. Omni looks over the many wares, seeing the mats bearing foods, drinks, and some stones. Demiurge is curious about the stones, to which Omni affirms that they are fake. The machine suspects that the tracks are probably used to transport workers, and these guys probably wait for workers to come around and try to sell to them. Demiurge wonders if that meant that workers were coming.

As they contemplate, they can hear a rumble on the tracks, which prompts the merchants to get upright. The train pulls in closer and closer, and they can see segments of it start to extend, the cabins creating much negative space between them. And as they do, the duo can hear people make their way up the stairs. Eventually the train comes to a stop, with the cabins halting at various points of the platform. And then, people began to step out, at which point Demiurge notices the people in the cabins and the people coming up the stairs wearing similar uniforms: bodysuits with plating over their joints. On the train are guards at the doors, them with big guns in their hands.

People are exiting the trains and making for the stairs while the people from the stairs are making their way onto the train. Demiurge and Omni approach, with the Dragon asking what's up with the train. The guard before him explains that workers are expected to ride these trains to arrive at the work zone in order to earn their keep. There are three different shifts for workers, and they're currently seeing the night shift leave the train, and the morning shift enter. Omni asks if it's possible to walk along the track to get close to the work area, to which the guard answers that even if one would wish to, the rails are electrified and likely to paralyze walkers. And even if they stave off the shock, unauthorized personnel will be accosted. 

As they talk, Demiurge notices in his peripherals some merchants approaching the workers, many of them tired. The Dragon's attention gets drawn in particular to the leopard when one of the workers kicks at her mat, scattering her wares of stones and waters. The merchant is sheepish and is trying to straighten out her mat and reorient her wares. The guard they're talking to say that these guys tend to target workers fresh off the rails, and sometimes get an angry customers. He says not to pay her too much empathy, she was probably overcharging for the goods. Eventually, however, the workers manage their exchange and the train shuts and races off. However, a few of the workers weren't able to get on, with one frantic-looking red panda racing for the speeding train, hand outstretched. Eventually the space he can run on runs out, and, though with a moment of hesitation, he leaps onto the tracks, aiming for the space between. 

However, one misstep causes the rails to suddenly sing a violent screech as electricity suddenly surges through the red panda, whose body collapses as he lays across the tracks and is only zapped more and more. Demiurge and the merchants are horrified, though the leopard whips her mat up and tries to rush over. She gets close to the edge before she whips her mat down in some attempt at wrapping around a part of him. Demiurge tells her not to, but she says that it's ok. This mat's insulated with rubber. Eventually she's able to get the convulsing worker's thigh, and pulls. Demiurge and Omni offer a hand and help her pull the worker off of the tracks and onto the ground. 

The leopard feels around the red panda, and she says that he should pull through. The other merchants and workers still on the platform are still unsettled, though they do try to go back to their day while the leopard places the red panda over in a corner. And once there, she takes a potion from her pack before pouring it down the worker's throat, whose breathing subsequently starts to get back to normal. She thusly lays him down and sighs. Demiurge asks the leopard if he really will be ok, to which she says that she can't be certain of anything better than "alive". Those tracks were able to burn him, so it probably means that he suffered some form of heart problems. If he's lucky, it'll only have occurred for the moment.

Demiurge asks why someone would do something like that, to which the merchant remarks that he must be real new here. Either people forget about how dangerous those tracks are, maybe they just choose to face the rails, maybe they don't know those tracks are electrified, or maybe they're so desperate for their day of pay they'd try anything to get on the train. Either way, she says that he really shouldn't judge his decision. Demiurge stands uncomfortable for a minute, before wondering if they should stay around. The merchant furrows her brow and looks over her mat, before she says that she'll stay here to keep an eye on him. Though, she wonders if they could potentially sell her wares while she's dealing with this guy. Demiurge supposes that it couldn't hurt, though asks if it's the fake stuff she wants to sell. The merchant simply says that what they don't know won't hurt them. And then she says that these are being sold by '''Mz. Eruba'''.

With that, Demiurge and Omni scoop up the merchant's goods, and are now tasked with going around town to try and sell this stuff.
----
Demiurge and Omni step into town, the machine asking the Dragon how they go about selling things. Demiurge admits that he has no idea, and says that maybe they should wing it. And so, the duo begins to walk through the town, intent on selling some of Mz. Eruba's wares. This involves making trips to the districts visited previously, and in the process will end up letting players see the general populace. Along the way, more people will see Omni, and grow more and more unsettled by their appearance. Many people consider them unnatural and will likely run off. 

After that, the machine notes that the people seem scared off by them themselves. They ask the Dragon if their attendance in this endeavor should cease, to which Demiurge says that he doesn't want them to feel unwelcome. Omni says that it'd only be logical, seeing how everyone reacts to them. Demiurge shakes his head and says that that won't be necessary. He says that he thinks he has some money on him, so maybe he can placate that leopard with this. With that, the two make their way back to the train platform, where they now see that the leopard's been waiting, but the red panda that'd been injured previously is now gone. 

She says that someone contacted medics and had brought the civilian away. Demiurge asks if he'll be ok, to which Mz. Eruba shrugs, before asking how selling went. Demiurge thus exchanges the goods and some gold pieces. The leopard looks over either stuff, before handing Demiurge the gold pieces. The Dragon asks why, to which she says she knows that they didn't sell anything. She asks them if they really thought she wouldn't notice that none of her stuff was gone. Demiurge nervously rubs his shoulder, to which Mz. Eruba sighs and says that she shouldn't have really expected much from some amateurs. 

Omni apologizes, saying that they'd scared them. Before Demiurge can correct him, she says that people aren't scared of Omni, they're ''offended'' by Omni. Demiurge asks what that's supposed to mean, to which she points out that a lot of people lost their limbs in work and can't work, having to pay for new bodies. But some lab spent time and resources to create a whole body of their own and tried to put a mind in it. She doesn't even now how that works! Omni gives pause and steps back, while Demiurge seems stunned himself. Mz. Eruba sighs and says that she probably shouldn't have said something like that. But people around here just focus on what they could make instead of what they could improve. There's plans for expanding the building on top of Holix while she's passed by numerous people resting in the streets missing at least one leg. 

Demiurge says that he never really thought about that, to which Mz. Eruba says that she's just going to work double time tomorrow. She says that she doesn't know what they're doing here, but she guess she wishes them luck. Thus, she walks off, while Demiurge sighs. Omni thinks about what she said, to which they turn to Demiurge. They say that she talked about a lot of problems in the area, though the admins talked about how they should keep looking to the future, about how the problems of today will be fixed tomorrow. The machine asks Demiurge if he thinks that they should work on the future before the present, or the present before the future. Demiurge is thus able to answer "We should fix the now" or "Later will fix the now". Either way, Omni assesses Demiurge's words, before saying that it's getting late. They should rest.

;Septmi 8th

The next morning Demiurge and gang wakes up again, with the Dragon greeting the two. He says that he forgot to check on them earlier, and asks how things have been on their end. Metlo says that he's been trying to learn more about the medical arts around here, but there're some pretty advanced stuff in this territory. Taruka says that she's been buying some fancy toys around here, saying that her brother would love this stuff. Metlo asks what he and Omni were up to, to which the Dragon says that he doesn't really want to talk about it too much. Omni, however, will say that they helped out after a man got electrocuted on the rails. 

There's a palpable pause in the group, the pangolin apologizing that they had to see something like that. Demiurge says that it was mortifying. If it wasn't for some con merchant on the platform, he's not sure if he'd have been saved. Taruka says that it's great that he was saved. Either way, they're still waiting on the factory to give them access to what they wish. Metlo supposes that they have more time to do the stuff they wish, so he thinks he'll try to keep on learning. Taruka says that she'd like to go with Demiurge and Omni for now.
----
The group walks some more, making their way over to the commercial district. As they do, Demiurge asks Taruka if she needs more from the commercial district, though the pangolin explains that she's personally not into the medical field, and she's personally a bit scared to really peek into the Dark District. Demiurge supposes that that's fair. They keep walking and soon come to one of the buildings. Demiurge looks over at one of the bigger streets, and can see several merchants have set up with those mats again. 

Either way, he stays with Taruka and watches her browse a few toys set up, with some looking like very stylized versions of Demiurge himself. And all the while, the shoppers inside look at Omni in absolute confusion. Omni turns towards Taruka as she scans the various items, and asks why those merchants outisde have set up shop so close to the other shops. The pangolin explains that merchants that don't utilize buildings for sales are the kind of people that don't have  alot of money to themselves, so they try to find strategic places to sell their stuff. In this case, that there is a major road, so a lot of people are likely to pass along there. 

They work more and more, though Demiurge notices the leopard from before coming down to the street, her looking kind of beat up. Demiurge says that he has to step out for a bit and walks out, before going to talk to the merchant, who's yet to set up. Mz. Eeruba sees the Dragon and tells him that she hasn't set up, though Demiurge says that he moreso wanted to check on her. The leopard asks if he's curious about the bruises. She says that it's just a part of the work: sometimes people get fed up with the merchants and go on the offensive. Demiurge asks if anyone can stop stuff like that from happening, to which the leopard says that because merchants like her aren't officially registered, they technically aren't protected, and in some cases can even be perceived as a slight on their own part. As such, they tend to be at the whims of the public unless they get it real good with the guards. Demiurge apologizes dearly, prompting Mz. Eruba to apologize for the extension of his hip. The Dragon is confused at that, before he turns and notices Omni beside him, the machine saying that they wished to follow. 

Omni then says that they'd not understood properly how dangerous her work has been. They wonder if there are other occupations she could apply in, to which the leopard scoffs. She says that it takes a lot of moxie and wit to be a merchant, but unless you can show off some legitimate experience, that doesn't mean anything to jobs. So, unless a miracle happens, this is kind of all she has. There's a slight pause between the group, before Demiurge searches his pockets and hands over a bunch of gold. The leopard says that she still isn't seeling, though Demiurge says that he'd like her to have some of this. Omni, meanwhile, speaks up and says that she might need more than just money. They say that maybe she needs some specialized employment. 

Mz. Eruba raises a brow in confusion, to which Demiurge suddenly realizes what they're getting at. The Dragon says that his group is going on a special mission, and right now it's just the four of them. But, considering the kind of person Mz. Eruba herself appears to be, he feels like she could prove to be a useful affiliate. The leopard turns towards Omni, and asks if he means to have her work with the mortalis ex machina. Demiurge says that she doesn't have to think of it that way, but she'll be able to find comfortable housing, and he can make sure to funnel money to her on a daily basis. The leopard perks up at that, though she searches her pockets real quick. She supposes that if he's offering, then it wouldn't hurt to join along. First, though, she's hidden a lot of her gear in some alley, and she'll have to go pick it up before she joins officially. Demiurge then gives her directions to where himself and his allies are hanging out and to meet them there at evening. 
----
Demiurge and the others meet up outside the inn. As they wait outside, Metlo asks if the bunch of them learned anything new, to which Omni says that they spent a lot of time shopping and learning about the merchants. Taruka affirms as much before showing off a bag with various toys in it. The canary asks where she's gotten all the money to buy this stuff. Taruka also asks him how his learning is going, with him saying that he's still trying to wrap his head around certain concepts. He goes to rest, though Demiurge stops him, saying that they're waiting for someone. 

Demiurge explains a bit about Mz. Eruba, which gets Taruka concerned while Metlo is, at most, amused. Taruka asks if they should really be hiring random people off the street, to which the canary points out that he's pretty much the same as her. Though, the pangolin asks if she'll be alright, considering the nature of their mission. Omni ponders on this, pointing out that this is about their previous issue about learning about Alchemy. Some people will probably want it privatized, likely, though considering the nature of the streets in here, it's likely that some people won't have the needs of everyone in mind. The machine turns to Demiurge and thus asks, does he think that people like Mz. Eruba should know about Alchemy, or not? Players can thusly answer "Yes" or "No".

Either way, as they mull over this, some guys in ratty clothing come over, and they can be seen with crowbars and wrenches. Demiurge asks the group if they know anything about these guys, Metlo merely saying that he's detecting a malevolent aura from these guys. The guys get closer, before one of them, a pig guy, says that they've been the talk of the town. Specifically the metal guy. Omni affirms that they have been getting attention, though Demiurge asks them what they want. The pig says that he just simply wants to take them off of their hands. Demiurge says that Omni isn't for sale. However, the ruffians don't take kindly to that, and say that that there is at least a couple hundred pounds of precious metals, and they can't just let them wander around and think they can get away with that!

However, before they can go on the offensive, a bag of coins suddenly slams into one of them, with several of the gold pieces scattering around the field. And while distracted, the others would go to see who attacked, and see that leopard come into the field. She says that she's not into that machine, but those are her clients. Demiurge is happy to see her, to which the leopard says that they can talk later. She then reaches to her side before pulling out a machete. 

With that, players battle the '''Ruffians''', while accompanied by Mz. Eruba. She can deal Slash damage with her machete, and along with that is mainly support oriented, wielding Healing spells and buffs. She also has the ability to use some of the party gold to deal damage to an enemy. With the merchant's support, they're able to overwhelm the ruffians, who're forced to run off. The group sighs, and Metlo thanks her for her help, while also noting that she's quite the fighter. She says that sometimes you gotta learn things on the street. Either way, she supposes it's time to rest. She immediately presses past them, the group sort of surprised by how brazen she is. Though, they decide to follow her and go to bed.

;Septmi 9th - 12th

Here, players are allowed some more free time, with which they can work on various activities.

;Septmi 13th

The group wakes up yet again, making their way out towards the streets. As they do, some squirrel woman races towards the group, her in armor akin to the other guards, and with one of those strange guns the group's seen frequently. She bows for the group, saying that she apologizes for any inconvenience their wait has caused them. She says that the lab is ready to talk to them again, to which Demiurge thanks her, before telling her that they'll be right over. 

With that, the party heads over to the lab, before entering. Inside, they find the rat woman again. Vulka greets the lot of them, before spying the merchant. She asks where the leopard is from, to which Demiurge says that she is with them. Vulka furrows a brow at that, though supposes that that should work out. She says that she looked into their... report, and says that she thinks she knows how they can add onto it. Though to discuss into this, she needs to talk to Demiurge on his own.

The Dragon is weirded out, though Taruka, Metlo, and Omni say that it's ok. Thus, Demiurge is led further in, led past the doors and to a room with a great big table in it. The rat asks Demiurge what he knows about transmutation of the elements, to which Demiurge says that he himself isn't too terribly knowledgeable on a lot of it. But he does know about being able to transmute fire and water. Vulka explains that a lot of their practice with magic stems from learning how to increase the potency of the magic, before learning how to perform more with it.

She knows of a town nearby that's learned how to utilize Earth magic to seek out minerals in the soil, and though it isn't akin to the results they wish for, that is still people learning the composition of Earth via magic. If they can establish a proper connection with that town, they could share the secrets and learn how to bridge the gap between evoking Earth, evoking precious metals. Demiurge asks what she means by "proper connection". To that, she answers that this town has decided to keep its secrets to itself. It's made sure to isolate itself from the rest of the realms, and instead sells off what they find to the other cities. 

She says that she doesn't expect them to make learning their secrets easy, but she does hope that they'll be able to get at least some of them to join Emula. The rat explains that this town is called '''Mulga''', and it's set itself towards the northern edge of the mountain range towards the west. Demiurge thanks her, and asks how hard that should be. She says that the residents are fiercely defensive of their secrets, and will probably try and do everything in their power to defend it, including violence. She says that if they find the need to, they will be permitted to defend themselves. 

Demiurge asks if that's really necessary, to which Vulka points out that those people are stopping a lot of them from advancing. If they keep up like this, they could be stuck in a dark age until the rest of their society is able to catch up. She says that this is very much necessary. Demiurge is still uncertain, though will comply. So, he returns to the party with what he's learned, and with that, the party is given a new mission. Go to Mulga, and help establish an alliance between them and Emula.

;Septmi 13th - 22nd

The group thus makes their way towards the west. Along the way, Demiurge will explain that he actually used to be in a village near this mountain range. Omni asks if it's the one with the foremen, to which the Dragon affirms as much. He shares stories about the kind of stuff that went on over there, even with Mongi, to which Taruka admits that it's very interesting learning about how living with those people is actually like. She'd only been able to read books before. Mz. Eruba wonders what it would've been like to actually live back then, being able to not have to worry about actually getting employed and just be ushered into a role. Metlo, however, points out that back then people hadn't refined their magics or even learned about prosthetics. Mongi ended up unable to work another day in his life and was left on a chair for the remainder of his days. 

Hearing that would get Demiurge sad. As they walked, they'd soon see the mountain range in question, and would be prompted to curl northwards. There is a chance to go southwards, though that'd mean either going across the trail itself or curling around the other side of the mountain. They continue forwards, and once along the northern edge, where they can see hills lining the landscape, they can see a city with a large wall surrounding it on all edges, with its back against the mountain. However, a fair distance from the city itself were a series of watchtowers. Demiurge asks what this stuff is for, to which Taruka points out that Mulga is very aware of how important its magical knowledge is, so they've been hard at work preparing a defensive. 

Demiurge asks how they'd get the material, to which Metlo says that usually buyers will send a message to them notifying of who'll be coming to collect items, so if Eluma's smart, they'll be able to walk right up. Thus, the group begins to advance, though when they near the watch towers, Metlo says that his "mercenary senses" are kicking in, and warns the party to be careful. Either way, they start to press on, when a bolt of electricity suddenly zaps right where they were about to step. They turn to the source, where they see someone on one of the watchtowers has cast a spell, telling them they will go no further! Mz. Eruba will shout, saying that they're supposed to be here about some meeting for partnership! The guy on the watchtower says they've been informed, but they deny it. 

Hearing that, the group realizes that they cannot talk through this. Mz. Eruba says that they aren't being paid to raid some city, but Omni will point out that they're here for a mission that will better the whole of their world. Metlo says that if they are to continue, that would mean earning their ire. So, players will press on, and invite a fight with the '''Watchtower''' and its allies. The Watchtower itself is exceptionally tanky, and wields high damage. Players will have to worry about damage and the allies, them likely to take out the allies first. With enough work, they'll be able to drain the tower's health, and cause it to crumble. With that, Taruka says that it's clear that they aren't welcome, and warns everyone to be prepared.

The group thus now proceed onwards, having to deal with guards and watchtowers in the field, being forced to contend with the lot of them. Eventually they make it to the front wall of Mulga, the gates up. Metlo says that they're not going to let them in, and asks Demiurge if he can fly them up. The Dragon flaps his wings, and says that he doesn't think that he has the muscle for it. They look over the gate, just pondering on what they could do. As they do, however, Omni speaks up to get their attention. They say that their core is full of magic, and they've learned how to tap into it to let forth a concentrated blast. Demiurge asks if that'll be ok, to which Omni says that they should still have enough crystals to get them back on their feet. 

The party steps back as Omni stands before the gate. As they do, the machine's chest piece will open up, revealing the glowing stone inside. Components within the machine will reach for the stone while forming a channel directly in front of it. The components near the stone will split it, and the channel before it starts to draw in the cackling energy. And then, it blows through the channel, a massive beam of Pure magic firing forwards! The gate starts to bend against the force of the beam, but after a few more seconds of struggle, it's soon split open! Omni will then power off and go limp. The party rushes over and immediately starts to swap out the stone, while Demiurge furrows a brow and looks towards the damage. He remarks to himself that he's only seen power like that comparable to a Dragon... Either way, it seems like they can enter Mulga now.
----
The group breaks into '''Mulga''', the shattered gates beside them. Past the gates, they can find streets paved in stone with a ring of buildings, circular and built partially into the ground. Deeper in the city are a series of houses, smaller buildings used for the people to rest in. Looking over them, Demiruge wonders what this design is. Taruka says that those towers built into the ground look like they're being used to dig into the soil itself, and she can only assume that they've been using this to get the material inside. 

Demiurge says that he hadn't expected to see a city where the main work force is outside, as opposed to with the previous cities, where the communities were more built around the work force. Mz. Eruba points out that it's hardly any better this way. Those houses are awfully close to the work areas themselves, probably built with the expectation that workers will take one of those houses and wait to be queued in. That probably means that the locals probably have to spend their time watching people reeking of the earth coming in and out. It'd be just like back home, watching those guys coming out and to the train for work.

As she explains, they can see other guards storming forwards. Metlo tells them to stay alert before he takes out his own pistol. Demiurge realizes that they do need to act, and thus prepares his own weaponry. The party will be forced to beat through a wave of guards, and with them gone, the Dragon asks what the plan is, now that they've got hostiles to worry about. Taruka says that the people that can locate the minerals will probably be in the housing district, so they should try and find them and whisk them out of the city. Once they get out of the walls, Mulga has no way to mount an offense against Emula. 

Demiurge wonders how they'll find them, though Omni says that those casters are fairly public in terms of identity. They needed to prove that their magics were indeed plausible in order to do business, so certain labs made sure to commit their name and image to their banks. They themselves know of these individuals. With that, the party will now be tasked with proceeding into Mulga, needing to get to the housing sector. On the way, they'll see that the guards have erected barriers to make it harder to proceed, forcing the party to maneuver around the streets to find ways, first of all, past the towers into the earth. 

As they step past the ring of towers, they'll soon hear some stamping near one the tower nearby. Looking towards it, they can see a set of steps leading up inside, and can soon see a heavy figure stepping down. Said figure is a man in thick armor, covered head to toe. The armor is of a material none of them have seen, it glistening with an almost rainbow hue. They notice other guards nearby. The guards by the entrance laugh and say that they're in danger now. They've uncovered a metal that cannot be broken by any metal! Metlo grit his teeth before raising his pistol and firing at the warrior, only for the bullets to plink off. Omni themselves decide to reach into their magical reserves and fire out a wave of electricity, managing to bring the guards to kneel but not even halting the warrior in the metal. Taruka says that they might be right, but soon find themselves set upon by the warrior.

They're confronted by the '''Mythril Knight''', who they're unable to damage at this moment. The foe nullifies all damage types, and has a passive that disables Pierce. Partway through the initial confrontation, Taruka will tell the group that they have no chance at beating this man! They have to run! Thus players are forced to flee, racing away form the Knight. Once they get away, Metlo supposes that those guys weren't blowing smoke. Demiurge asks Omni if they were able to get a read on the armor, and the machine takes a moment to think. They say that their weapons cannot dent the armor, and to even begin to make it vulnerable would require magic unlike any they'd seen to wear down. Demiurge repeats that point in contemplation, before the party can hear the Knight's stomps.

At this point, players will have to continue racing through the streets, only now they have to worry about the Mythril Knight coming close, them only able to Flee in combats against it.

Eventually, after weaving past more enemies and streets, with the Knight on their heels, the group makes it to the housing district. They search more and more, before soon Omni says that they've identified the individuals that can identify the material. They, however, recommend engaging only if they feel confident. Once they go deep into the housing district, they have to worry about being surrounded. Once the player opts into it, they press deeper into the district. 

Inside, they can find five people in the streets: a tall and thin gazelle man, a short parrot woman, a buff bull man, a round frog woman, and a very short mole man. Omni says that these people are well documented, and refers to them as '''Mazy''', '''Ruina''', '''Tik''', '''Suna''', and '''Dens''' respectively. Seeing the lot of them, Demiurge addresses them, saying that they'd intended to come here in peace, but were instead greeted with hostility. Mazy explains that they were defending themselves, it was their group that pressed the issue! Taruka says that they are under express orders to get their cooperation, that they cannot return empty handed. Ruina says that they don't care, that it is only right for them to remain neutral. 

Demiurge asks what they mean, to which Ruina says that the power Eluma asks for is overwhelming. It'd singlehandedly shift the power structure of the whole world if it found it in their hands! Omni asks what's wrong with that, which gets the five individuals shocked initially. Demiurge says that they can worry about the machine's sentience later, for now he wants to know what they mean about this shift in power and how bad it is. Tik says that the power to change material in an era that demands material would guarantee that one person would be able to propel themselves in power. And if they're really as close as they say they are to uncovering that power, then there's no chance they don't realize that. And if there's one thing the five of them know, it's that the world can't rely on a single power to run. If that one power was to rule, then the moment it turns bad, everyone else will suffer.

At this, Omni asks "what about Demiurge?" The party turns, and the machine explains that Demiurge had worked towards bettering the world ever since he'd come down on it. The machine thinks that if anyone should hold the power of Alchemy, and thus the power of the world, then it should be someone like him. He cares about both the progress of society and about the people in the streets. That's why Mz. Eruba is with them right now. The machine motions towards the leopard, who can't help but nod. The five of them give pause, though Suna points out that even if that ''is'' true, he's not in power. He's just a lapdog! Taruka says that they can make sure Demiurge manages to reign in the other powers, to keep things safe. The five still seem uncertain, though Dens says that if they really think that they have a foot in this world, then they should be able to stand up to ''him''.

The party hears the familiar stamping, and spies the Mythril Knight coming forwards. Metlo says that this isn't fair, they can't scratch that armor! Dens declares that this metal is among the strongest in the soil, and it is thus their shield against those that threaten the balance. If they wish to press on, then they must battle that intense force. Seeing it approach, Demiurge thinks back to Omni's words. He tells the party that he has a plan, but he needs time to prepare it. He also needs to make sure that nothing can get in the blast zone. Taruka says that she doesn't know, but he hasn't steered them wrong so far! So, Demiurge briefly leaves the party, and the remaining group stands up.

Thus, the party is forced to survive the '''Mythril Knight'''. In this situation, players find themselves unable to Flee, instead needing to worry about the Knight's intense defenses. The Mythril Knight also wields Gauntlets, with which he deals Smash damage, and is also able to use Earth magic, AOE skills, and damage up buffs. Players can utilize buffs on their end and debuffs on the Knight to weaken it, while also using liberal uses of Defends and healing. THey're required to brave the Mythril Knight for a few rounds, before Demiurge shouts for the party to get away!

The party each glance back, where they can see Demiurge digging his feet into the ground, his chest glowing with a rainbow-like glow as he recalls the memories of lessons he'd witnessed before. The ground seems to shake below, and the party realizes that this is really serious. The Knight itself seems ready to move, though a few hits form the party would convince it to stay still. Metlo tells them to all wait just a little bit... The light begins to travel up Demiurge's throat and towards his jaws, and the seeing it come, Metlo declares "Now!" 

Just as the party each leaps away, Demiurge lurches his head forwards, and sends forth a massive beam of Pure magic, the beam the size of a truck as it soars across the street and bathes the district in light. It comes straight for the Knight, who even he seems to be uncertain. He raises both of his hands and thrust them forwards, the beam impacting against his gauntlet palms and seeming to push him back, the Knight's feet struggling against the ground! As the beam impacts, flecks of magic sprays in random directions as the brunt of the beam is stopped by the Knight's block. The Knight, however, starts to struggle, and his arms start to get wrenched away. Eventually, his guard is broken, and the beam slams against his front, netting wails form the Knight before the beam eventually peters out.

The five mineral finders and the party looks on in surprise, awed by the display of Draconian power. The Knight's armor is blazing red, steam raising from it, and he falls to a knee, panting. The armor looks as if it's struggling to hang on by a hair, before chunks of it flops off, clanging against the ground with a volume akin to gong after gong after gong. All present are shocked at the sight, Mazy saying that it's impossible... The Knight starts to stand, revealing its inhabitant to be a jackal man with an eyepatch over one eye, him panting and panting. Mz. Eruba claps and cheers after that awesome display, and Metlo points out that the Knight's armor has cracked! With this, Demiurge steps forwards, and tells the five onlookers that he's ready to "threaten the balance".

With that, the party gets into a proper fight with the '''Mythril Knight'''. The warrior has lost his Blocks and his Resist Pierce, which means that players are now able to damage him. This doesn't mean that he is a pushover, though. He still has powerful Earth magic, Smash attacks, multitarget, and buffs. He also, from time to time, uses a new Skill, '''Aegis''', which'll make him immune to damage for a short bit. Players will have to utilize their actions wisely to maximize their health, lower the enemy's stats, and wear him down. Eventually, the jackal's health is depleted, and he falls. 

The Knight is forced onto all fours, unable to make an attack anymore. With him down, the five onlookers are stunned. They each glance at the party, saying that that isn't possible. Taruka cheers and says that that's the power of the Dragon! Mz. Eruba tries to hide it, though she is quite ecstatic that they actually did that. Meanwhile, Omni walks over to the five, and mentions that they believe they had a deal. The five blanch, before sighing, Mazy admitting that they did. They will go along quietly. 

With them in tow, the party makes their way out of the city, the various guards unwilling to mount an attack with the five so close to the hostiles. The group exits Mulga, with several of the party members still ecstatic over what they accomplished. As they walk, Demiurge does approach Omni. The Dragon asks if what they said back there, if that was true. Omni says that they do believe that the Dragon knows better for the planet. Solving Alchemy would be a massive boon, but deep down, they feel that the power shan't go to either of them. Just looking at how they address problems now, they're not sure if ''more'' power would even change things. 

Demiurge then asks what exactly they are proposing, to which Omni says that such a thing would require something more concrete later. But first, they need to play along enough to solve this equation, and to prepare for what could be potential resistance. Demiurge nods, and says that they'll do that. So, the party keeps on walking and walking and walking.
----
After this, the five will be taken into custody, and the squirrel woman from earlier will tell the party that the bosses will try and get those five to comply with their demands. In the meantime, the lot of them should make use of their free time. Demiurge thanks them, though Metlo asks what's going to happen to Mulga. The squirrel says that their party had responded to their aggression in kind, so at the moment that's considered to be decent retribution. As long as Mulga doesn't try anything further, they won't have reason to fight back. Metlo asks what'll happen while those five are away, they kind of helped keep things running. The squirrel says that, unfortunately, that'll be up for Mulga to find out.

Either way, their mission is now done, and they have free time.

;Septmi 23rd

As the group's free time winds down, Demiurge wakes and finds the squirrel woman from before, who waves him over. She says that the Mulga extracts have been spoken to, and it sounds like they're going to start complying. Demiurge asks if she knows about what the leaders are after too, to which the woman nods. She says that several of the elites have been talking about potentially uncovering the secret of Alchemy. They seem to think that the full secret will become unfurled shortly after they learn about uncovering the properties of the precious metals, after that it might simply be a case of trial and error by the soudns of things. 

Demiurge thanks her for the news, though admits that he hasn't really gotten to know her herself, he apologizes. She says that she tends to blend in from time to time, before introducing herself as '''Myla'''. Demiurge introduces himself as well, though the squirrel woman says that she already knows who he is. Demiurge then asks what she thinks about the secret of Alchemy coming forwards. She says that a lot of people talk about how it's going to grant their world insane growth, but if you ask her, she thinks that it's just going to let some people continue to rise above the rest. If anything, she's sure that the people are going to suffer more, as this is likely to end some jobs. She actually has an older brother on the trainline, and she's kind of scared what'll happen if he can't harvest material anymore. He doesn't have a whole lot of other skills. 

Demiurge is concerned, saying he hadn't really thought of that. Myla says that whatever the case, things are going to change, and she's not sure whether it'll be for the better or worse. Demiurge mulls over what she says, and thanks her for informing him. He'll have to think on what's coming up. Myla nods, before leaving. And as she does, the Dragon thinks more on what Omni said back then. They talked about how he might be better for leading, but at the same time he was so blind to the full ramifications of his actions here... Though at the same time, he can't be certain of himself that that power is currently going to the right hands. 
===Penultimate===
Players are allowed a morning of free time, though they aren't allowed to head out into the field, instead able to hang out with allies. Whatever they do, time passes. 

By now, night has begun to come down, and Demiurge is still mulling over the information he'd learned. As he thinks it over, Omni begins to approach, and asks the Dragon if he's doing alright. The Dragon admits as much, saying that he's not sure how worthwhile this Alchemy thing will be. The machine says that such a teaching will make for a ton of progress, but he supposes the higher ups have their own definitions of "progress". And, depending on the definition, people will be left behind. And unfortunately, it's the people that can leave them behind that controls the means of progress.

Demiurge supposes that they're right. That Alchemy stuff sounds like it could be useful, but he realizes that he charged right into helping out with that before he really looked into the issues that aren't being helped by that. There are plenty of people that could probably have new limbs once the secret is discovered, but there are people that seem like they won't prosper with it. Demiurge rubs his head and says that he thinks he needs to research yet again. He needs to figure out everything he's overlooking up to now. Omni asks what this means, to which Demiurge says that he wants to look into the lab itself and figure out who all they're really looking out for.

Omni says that such a thing could prove difficult. The innards of the lab are heavily guarded, and Demiurge understands that. He says that he'll spend some time working on a possible entry. Omni says that they're available to help whenever. The Dragon thanks Omni, and thus decides to turn in to rest.

;Septmi 24th

The next morning comes, and Demiurge decides to go over to the lab at the base of the mountain. Once there, the rest of the party comes close, with Metlo asking Demiurge if he's certain about this. The Dragon says that he needs to figure out what these guys plan to do with Alchemy. If they figure that out, then they can make proper judgements on what to do with the rest of their time going forwards. Taruka says that she can try and ask for permission into some rooms, though Mz. Eruba says that if it's so secretive, then they probably won't let them in anywhere close to anything too suspicious. 

Demiurge supposes that having another room deeper in the lab could prove useful. His mind races, and he thinks he knows someone that could help let someone in deeper. But he'd have to really charm them. Metlo asks if he's sure, to which Demiurge assures that he's positive. Someone could help them in, and he thinks that they could help them with this goal. Taruka says that while he gets their attention, she can get requests for more rooms. Demiurge thanks them and says that's a good idea. With that, he decides to head off, silently thinking to himself that he has no idea where she may be.
----
With this, players are cast to the city, left to search for a while. Eventually, their searching will lead them to the Dark District, where a cutscene will play. There, Demiurge walks around, when a door to one of the buildings pops open. Out comes a familiar squirrel woman (though in more casual clothes), her sighed blissfully while her fur is messed up a little. She thanks whoever is beyond the door, and says she left them a little extra. She closes the door, before turning and seeing the Dragon. She blushes and inches away, asking him what he saw. With that, players answer "Nothing" or "Absolutely nothing". Either way, she takes a deep breath, before saying that she didn't expect him to come find her on her day off. 

Demiurge says that he's been doing some thinking, and he figured that he wanted to try and talk to her about something. Myla supposes that talking to the Dragon could be useful, and says that she's already gotten through, like, 40% of her work-induced stress relief. She asks him if it's going to be long, though Demiurge assures he'll try to make it short. She nods, and recommends that they take this somewhere else. Demiurge supposes that this district would be a bit too seedy to talk, and thus agrees. And so, the two go off, leaving the district to talk in an alley.

The two step into the alley, where the squirrel asks Demiurge what this is about. The Dragon explains that he wants to get to actually know the lab, to know what it is that they have planned with Alchemy. Myla furrows a brow and asks what he means, to which the Dragon explains that he hadn't really thought ahead before moving forwards up to now. So, he wanted to figure out just what is in this world's future before they let them use the power of Alchemy for their own purposes. The squirrel mulls over that information, before saying that she thinks she likes the sound of that. Demiurge asks if she knows anything, to which she says that they've only told her things she'd expect people like them to say, such as creating better machinery and being able to create more prosthetics. 

Demiurge says that he's got Taruka trying to give them more room to explore, to which Myla says that depending on what they have access to, she could try and see where she could take them. Part way through the conversation, the Dragon furrows his brow, and remarks that he thought on a whim that she'd be a good contact, but he wants to make sure that she's actually ok with helping them sneak through. Myla says that the lab overlooks a bunch of small guys, like her brother. She herself is barely even a blip on their radar, and so she barely gets the stuff that she needs or really informed. She thinks that if someone like Demiurge feels they should be scrutinized, then they deserve it.

Demiurge thanks her. Eventually, Taruka shows up, saying that she's been looking all over and found them. Demiurge explains that Myla here is on their side, and the pangolin is able to give her the information. Myla says that she has a couple days left of vacation, but she'll be sure to tell them the night before when they're ready. And then she says that on that note, she has some more stress to relieve. With that, she leaves, and Taruka supposes that they have some time to themselves now.

;Septmi 24th - Septmi 26th

With that, players are given some more free time.

On the night of the 26th, Myla will come by the inn, Demiurge himself coming down. The squirrel says that they she spent some time reviewing the rooms Taruka found, and explains that she can see a good route. Demiurge thanks her, and asks if she's sure about going through with this. The squirrel says that she knows that if they really wish for it, they'd drop her, so she's more than happy to give them a bit of a beatdown. Demiurge nods, and says that his party will meet her at the lab tomorrow. The squirrel nods, and then leaves.

;Septmi 27th

With this, the group makes their way towards the lab, where they are greeted by the squirrel woman, now in her usual regalia and with one of those big guns. She welcomes them, and says that they'll each have to be careful. Right now, they only legally have access to a few rooms at the forefront of the building, but she knows a route that'll only lead them across automatons. Omni asks if she refers to people like them themselves, to which Myla clarifies that these machines aren't as intelligent as they are. There's a section over there where machines are designed to handle manual labor, while others are designed to fight off people not registered to be in the location. 

The party presses into the front hall that they'd only been able to look at before. An attendant at the front tells them they're free to check out the mess hall, the public records room, and the frontmost shipping platform. The attendant leaves, and Demiurge asks Taruka how she got these areas, to which the pangolin answers that the mess hall wasn't anything hard, but the public records room and the frontmost shipping platform are both placed far, far enough away from the rest of the process for anyone visiting to really get a read on stuff that they wouldn't want them to see. Shipped objects are hidden in boxes while they're free to police whatever records are available out front. 

Myla explains that the shipping area will be their best point of entry. Thus, the group makes their way towards the shipping area, where they see a room with tons upon tons of containers at it, with several guards around it looking over the inventory. The guards greet them, Myla waving to them as well. They press further and further forwards, where they see a guard blocking a door deeper into the building. The group hands near some containers that are out of view of the guard, to which Myla tells the group to hang back and wait, she'll clear the way. Demiurge asks what she's doing, though the squirrel is already off. At that, the two share a bit of a conversation that the group can't read, when suddenly she points in a direction. The guard looks where she points, only for Myla to pull her large gun out, and blast the guy with a bolt of magic, stunning him and knocking him out!

The party races in with Metlo asking what she just did. She says that she'll handle any of the heat later. Right now, they have a mission. She searches the guard's pockets to pull out a set of keys, before unlocking the door. With the door open, she warns them to be quick and swift and figure out whatever they wish to. And, though confused by her actions, they proceed to enter behind her.
----
The group is within part of the factory area, with machines going about to various automatic lines, taking product from them to bring them to containers that are moved by other machines. The various machines range from a wheel-bound device that can lift things that most people won't be able to lift, to anthromorphic beings that patrol the area. From afar, Metlo can see some prosthetics being made, with him looking over at a line with a bunch of weapons/tools on it, and noticing that the weapon/tool count is higher than the prosthetic count. He then points out that the prosthetic issue should be because of a lack of resources, but here they just appear to be using the material for the wrong things! Mz. Eruba says that these guys are more worried about getting their work done than with giving the people the resources they need. 

Either way, the leopard points out they have the Dragon's mission to carry out. She does ask, however, if they'll be able to get the knowledge that they need through this shipping area. Myla says that if they can get deep enough in, they should be able to get close to the admins' quarters, if not get near the records themselves. She hasn't been allowed that far, and she has no doubt that at some point they'll end up encountering flesh and blood guards, which will throw a bit of a wrench in their plans. Though hopefully they'll get the info they need before having to encounter any of those guys. Either way, it's time to press onwards.

With that, players are prompted to move through the innards of the '''Eluma Lab Shipping Wing''', having to contend with various machines inside, said machines immune to several ailments. It's also at this point that players get to utilize Myla as a party member, getting to know of her general playstyle. She's a bit of a glass cannon, using the cannon itself to Smash enemies for normal attacks, while also having access to several different single-target elements in order to hit enemies for a lot of damage. She also learns '''Charge''', which allows her to deal even more damage to enemies. Through some searching, the party is able to make their way to a door deep in the shipping area, which Myla judges should lead into the more corporate part of the lab, though it's locked. She ponders about where to find a key, only for the merchant to make her way in and begin to fiddle with the lock. She picks it, and is able to open it up, Taruka and Metlo cheering her on. Myla asks why she didn't do that with the first door, to which Mz. Eruba says that she didn't want to steal her moment. 

They step in and close the door behind, with the squirrel saying that their group should be careful here on; they're in unexplored territory. Demiurge reminds the group that they need to figure out what the admins plan to do with the power of Alchemy. Metlo nods and offers to split up.
*Going down one hall, Demiurge will find a door that's unlocked. Opening it up, they can find Taruka and Metlo inside, looking over several blueprints and a several vats with various chemicals inside. The canary complains about how it smells worse than Taruka after a big dinner, the latter of which gives him a jab to the stomach. She does, however, suspect that this is their chemistry lab. Looking over the sheets, she imagines that this might be where they're practicing narrowing down on what the secret of Alchemy is. Judging by what's jotted down on these blueprints so far, it seems like these combinations would've conjured up the material from the soil should there've been some in the vicinity. Metlo can't help but ponder, if normal Earth magic seems capable of conjuring soil out of thin air, then why doesn't it seem capable of creating those precious metals, though the pangolin explains that the magics manifest base forms of various elements, while the material he thinks of is more complicated in composition. Merely transition an element to another will be a heck of a miracle. Either way, it looks like the admins have been fast at work trying to figure out the secret.
*Going down another hall, Demiurge will find another door unlocked. Inside, Mz. Eruba can be seen in a room with a bunch of papers and official documents all about various cabinets. The leopard can be seen scanning through various cabinets and reading pages. Demiurge asks the feline if she found anything interesting, to which the merchant explains that she initially started with the Plans section, but couldn't help but want to look over some other stuff. Criminal Records, Building Permits, Licenses... These guys have on record various people as well as whether or not they're permitted into certain lab-sanctioned jobs. However, if these guys are really as smart as they think they are, these are probably copies of some original document, so she couldn't simply change a few words around to give herself what she wants. Demiurge apologizes for the circumstances. Mz. Eruba supposes that these guys are going down soon, so she should just be patient. She says she'll keep looking and stop imagining.
*At another hall, Demiurge finds a locked door, with Omni and Myla looking through it curious. Peering through a window in it, it appears to be some sort of dormitory area, and players can see Suna walking around and out of view. The Dragon asks what this is, to which Omni answers that this wing appears to be the current grounds of the high profile people from Mulga. At least attempting a glance at them would suggest that they're been tended for, but they seem unable to exit. It seems as though all five of them are being made to live here, as they'd witnessed glimpses of them. Demiurge wonders if they're trapped, to which the squirrel affirms as much. The admins told a few of the guards as much. Demiurge asks what she thinks will happen to them once the admins get what they want, to which she says that they're not ''that'' heartless. Odds are that they'll be released and allowed back to Mulga, though they'll have to contend with the fact that their secret is no longer there's to hold onto.

After speaking with everyone, the team meets up, sans Mz. Eruba. Omni explains that the five from Mulga are being held prisoner in this setting, likely been interrogated for their knowledge. Metlo explains that the admins have been experimenting with the potential Alchemy spell, though it seems like they aren't quite there yet. Taruka does, however, bring up that they are likely close to figuring it out, which means they probably have little time until the admins' plan is realized. The group looks around, Myla wondering where she is anyways. Demiurge wonders if she's still over in the records, and begins making his way over. 

The group enters, where they see the leopard looking through a some more documents, some drawn from shelves marked "P" and some marked "F". Mz. Eruba says that she's been looking some more. She didn't find anything under P that looks like "Plans", but over in "F" she found some folders marked "Future". She shows some documents, and the group looks over them. They depict mining projects for material taken in the shape of measurements of a few individuals needing prosthetics, before the material is transmuted into another material. On this sheet there are several individuals listed, to which Mz. Eruba explains that these guys are related to, or are owners of, businesses that've been providing to this lab. On top of that, several of the sheets she's read suggests that they intend to keep the magic to themself and essentially monopolize Alchemy. 

Following that, there are further documentations, showing the metallic city expanding, layers of walls erecting, and the structure on top of the mountain even growing larger with thicker chains and anchors to keep it in place. Mz. Eruba says that Eluma's looking towards protecting its information, and thus to improving its defenses. Among which includes a more intricate railway system. More jobs will apparently be available, but they'll be construction jobs and military, with several workers being put under close monitor to make sure they don't take any "unnecessary" information with them. Demiurge asks why the structure on top of the mountain is more fortified, to which the leopard says she thought to look into that, and got discouraged, until she found something under "Power Source". 

Apparently they've converted the structure itself to house a giant system meant to empower several of the functions of the city. They've been converted magical stones into energy, and have been feeding stuff into that structure in order to keep the railway running, the lights on, and a ton of other stuff. She pulls up some more documents, and she says that there are ideas for flying machines, so they're apparently afraid that someone could try and strike at it. Speaking of, looking into more future projects, it looks like at some point they plotted to do stuff for the sake of doing stuff. More varied mechanical bodies, projections of light meant to resemble an individual, even an AI of their own. Omni seems especially curious about that, and Mz. Eruba turns over the document, explaining that it seems to be designed directly after Omni themselves. 

To conclude, she says that they will improve mechanical progress, but it seems like that they still plan to be the ones that profit the most in the end. The party seems a little downcast at that, the Dragon seeming especially upset. He says that these guys are just going to just make themselves more powerful. Myla nods, saying that this is just what she was afraid of. Though, Metlo asks what they're supposed to do. They have a ton of people and metal between themselves and the admins, and there isn't even a certainty that they'll let them know the secret of Alchemy once they figure it out. At that, Omni says that they've done what they came here to do. For now, they should retreat, and figure out where to go from here, and get ready to fix this problem. 

With that, the party agrees, places the documents back in place, and leaves the lab.
----
Night comes, and the party is outside, seemingly unspotted. Demiurge thanks Myla for her assistance, the squirrel saying that she's just glad she has her eyes on the enemy now. She just hopes that it's not too late to stop them. Metlo says that they'll reach out for her when they get a lead. She thanks them, and thus leaves. The party, meanwhile, feels really tired after today, and thus goes to turn in for the night. Demiurge, however, is uncertain about where to go once they pry Alchemy out of the admins.

;Septmi 28th

On this morning, Demiurge wakes up yet again. He finds Omni stepping out into the street alongside Taruka, and comes down curious. Demiurge greets the machine, and asks what they're doing. Omni explains that the group has raised many good points as of recently, especially in regards to ownership of Alchemy. Odds are that Eluma are going to keep it, which means that if they're to claim it, they may need to force it out of their hands. Taruka says that they're going to try and speak with the admin of Tegrobil. Demiurge asks if they could use the rest of them, to which she explains that the two of them will be fine, while Omni reasoned that Demiurge should probably remain here in case of any upcoming developments. 

Demiurge thusly wishes them luck, and thus the duo heads off, temporarily leaving the party and leaving Demiurge currently with just Metlo and Mz. Eruba. Players are allowed free time for the rest of the day.

;Septmi 29th

The next day comes, and with it, the duo decides to head out with Mz. Eruba, the latter of which is setting up a stall. There, she gets ready to sell, though the group gets approached by a stranger. The group faces him, and sees a jackal with burn scars over him, and sizable muscles, though there appears to be metal replacements for parts of the body. Mz. Eruba asks if she can help him, though the jackal says that he's under the employ of the lab here, and they want to see the three of them.

Metlo, however, recognizes him, and asks if he's that knight from Mulga. The jackal gives pause, before grumbling "No hard feelings". Metlo asks how he became employed, to which he explains that they offered more money, as well as aid after his injuries. He glances towards his hands, his arms presently prosthetics. Demiurge apologizes for that, though the jackal says that they were fighting, he cannot hold it against them. Anyways, he's here to escort them. The Dragon looks curiously at the other two, though Metlo and Mz. Eruba both seem equally uncertain. Demiurge supposes that they have no way of denying it, and thusly agrees. The jackal nods, before telling them to follow him. He thus turns, and walks, with the three following.
----
The jackal walks them more and more, the party a bit uncomfortable at being led by a former enemy, especially one so heavily scarred by them. Demiurge tries to clear the tension, and thinks to ask for his name. The jackal says that he is '''Barroque'''. Demiurge asks him what he likes, to which he says that business has been his life for a long time. He's paid to protect things, and trained to protect things. He lost a thing to protect in Mulga, and now he protects here in Eluma. Demiurge again apologizes for what happened to him, to which he says that if he hadn't arrived when he did, Eluma wouldn't be paying him this much. 

The party is soon led into the lab, where they're greeted by guards, and the rest of the admins, a team of 3. There's Vulka, the rat from before. There's also a pig woman, and a labrador man. Demiurge greets them, saying that he hasn't met the two of them before. The pig introduces herself as '''Mish''', and the labrador introduces himself as '''Mondu'''. The two say that they had been too busy to speak with them before, but they'd love to finally speak with the Dragon himself. Demiurge nervously rubs his head and says that he supposes he's happy to talk to them. 

They ask him how he's liked Eluma so far, to which players can answer "It is very big and noisy" or "It could use some improvement". Mish will admit as much, that this realm could use improvement. However, they're sure they're getting close to bringing that improvement upon them all, and they'll have Demiurge to thank for that. The Dragon glances towards Metlo and Mz. Eruba, who both look uncertain. At this, Demiurge begins to speak up, saying he's wondering if they could potentially discuss about the power of Alchemy. Mondu asks what it is he wishes to discuss. 

Demiurge glances at the other two again, before saying that he thinks the power of Alchemy should come under his own power. The guards are each shocked, the admins each mildly surprised. Vulka asks what he means, to which Demiurge says that he's looked over the people down here, and sees that despite the resources they've had available to them, that plenty are still in disarray down in the streets. He says that he's not sure if they'll actually help each of them were they fully in control, so he wishes to personally hold onto that power so that he can help out wherever they overlook. The admins each look at each other, furrowing a brow, before nodding. They tell the Dragon to come with them, that they have a very important conversation. The Dragon asks why they can't talk out here, to which Mondu says that certain information cannot just be available to everyone. 

Demiurge turns towards Metlo and Mz. Eruba, and the merchant says that she can tell if Demiurge never pops up again. Demiurge faces the admins again with that knowledge, and says that he'll hear them out. The admins thank him, and thus open up a door leading deeper into the lab. They go through it, and the Dragon wearily follows after. They go through a hall, and Barroque himself is following suit. The Dragon asks what it is they wished to discuss, to which Mondu says that they wished to talk to the Dragon about scale, and about scope.

The truth of the world is that no one actively seeks to punish people, he explains. In fact, people like him and Tegrobil's admins and others were established to work on the world to make it better for the people around in it. They would give people prosthetics, give people jobs, but the simple fact of the matter is that their society isn't built for that. If they were to keep giving jobs, they'd basically have to invent jobs for people to take, which has with it loads upon loads of paperwork. And if they were to give everyone prosthetics, they'd quickly run out of material. Sure, they could spend time making that a reality, but if they did, that'd mean just ''that'' much longer they'd go without innovating the world. 

Demiurge asks if they need to innovate, to which Mish says they absolutely need to innovate. Since they as a people became intelligent, they've had to grow their society in any way, shape, or form. They needed to show that they as a people were growing from the neanderthals they once lived as, and to show that they aren't going stagnant. If they are to go stagnant, then they risk failing as a people. Demiurge asks why they'd think that, to which Vulka points out that in a hunt for purpose, they as a people agreed that they needed to become masters of the world, to mold the planet into their image to prove their worthiness of being here. Demiurge thinks back to the previous era, realizing that this sort of attitude must've been baked into them at an early age.

He asks them if making sure homelessness and illness is stamped out can't be innovation in and of itself? Mondu says that while they can attempt that, innovations like that won't stick. People will always face injury, and as long as society grows, there will always be people that won't be able to keep up with the new jobs that pop up. They can fix the issues of the now, but the world will grow with and create new issues. Back in the day, they overcame Monsters and took the world for themselves. But in the place of Monsters was the elements of the planet itself, from the earth itself collapsing due to their work, or deadly gasses under the crust to threaten them. They worked on improving Restoration magic to combat that, soon learning to make body parts to replace what people lost. And then the planet itself stripped them of the material needed to conveniently make that stuff. 

Demiurge furrows his brow as they explain, with Mish continuing that strife is always going to be a part of their world, and the truth of the matter is that not everyone will be ready for it. Some people are going to build themselves up to overcome it, while others are going to have to live in the shadow of their success to survive. The Dragon says that it just sounds like they're giving up on the people beneath them. At this, VUlka turns towards Barroque with a strange look in her eye. She asks him if he's ready for his next assignment, to which the jackal agrees. Vulka says that there's a village north of here, between this mountain and the ocean to the north. She's going to have Barroque collect a few provisions, and then tomorrow, he's going to send him there. She suggests Demiurge accompany and get to understand their perspective some more.

With that, the Dragon is led outside, where Metlo and Mz. Eruba are waiting. Metlo asks how it went, to which Demiurge explains what he went through. The cannary crosses his arms and remarks that it just sounds like they're making excuses for letting people waste away. Mz. Eruba agrees, saying that they're just being lazy. Demiurge agrees as well, but he's not sure if he can even really deny their mission right now. They certainly didn't make it sound like a choice. Metlo sighs and supposes that they'll just have to hope they can handle this job fast enough. He also remarks that Taruka can't get here sooner. Either way, it's getting late, and he says that they should probably turn in. The leopard nods, saying she's getting really sick of getting pocket change for the day.

With that, they go to rest.

;Septmi 30th

The next day comes, and faster than Mz. Eruba can even think to prepare to sell, Barroque is at their inn. He tells the group that he hpes they're ready for business. Metlo supposes they're as ready as they'll be, though asks what they're doing over this way. Barroque explains that there are bandits to the north harassing villages, and guys like them are being dispatched to take care of them. Mz. Eruba asks if that means they're going to see him himself work, to which he affirms as much. He warns that he won't be as powerful given his recent injuries, but he'll still try. 

With that, the team makes their way northwards, needing to go around the mountain to make their way to their destination. They march north and north, the ocean coming on the horizon. And eventually, they'd make it to a fairly humble-looking village that's set up various vehicles with big tires. This is the village of '''Deniba'''. Demiurge asks what those are, to which Metlo explains that some villages get commissioned for projects, and he can only assume this is some sort of industrial project from another lab. Barroque explains that this area's losing a bunch of parts to bandits, and so their group is now tasked with taking out those bandits.

The group begins searching the nearby foliage, where they encounter bandits. And along the way, players get to learn about Barroque's playstyle itself. Firstly, with his augmentations, he now wields '''Wrist Lances''', sharp talons that extend from his mechanical arms that deal stabbing damage. He's a very defensive character in comparison to other members of the party, as well as a fairly decent damage stat. He has a special skill that lets players target an ally so that he can jump in to take the damage instead. He also has skills that act as personal buffs to make it so he can perform even better in battle.

The party is tasked with going around the surrounding area to take down various bandits, and once they took down the last of them, another cutscene will play, displaying several of the bandits rounded up before the party. Barroque asks the group if they have the metal they'd taken, though one of them, a dog man, tenses up, before collapsing before the group. They apologize, saying that they sold it already! And as they spoke, Demiurge suddenly recognized this guy as one of the guys without homes in Emula. Demiurge asks what they sold it for, to which he explains that he was hoping to get housing, so he thought he could get some from selling goods.

Demiurge says that this guy was just trying to make it, that this is what they need to fix. However, the jackal would motion for the Dragon to stay quiet, before asking him about the people he's hurt. The dog swears that they've just been fighting for money and against people that tried to hurt them back. The jackal begins listing off injuries and deaths in the general vicinity. He also focuses on the dog himself, before saying that the guards in Eluma spoke of a drug seller from the Dark District. He'd coaxed citizens into buying, made sure to sell in such quantities to make people addicted, and even sold to young teens. Many youths over dosed because of him. He then looks among the other bandits.

He starts to list crimes among them; unlicensed drug trafficking, murder, pimping, coercion into the Dark District, alongside petty crimes against people they'd never met before, from vandalism of their property to arson, and even to kidnapping and murder. Barroque turns to Demiurge and explains that these guys may've been put in bad positions, but they hurt people that didn't deserve it. Demiurge's eyes are wide after he explained each of what the group before them did, and he asks them if they truly did that stuff. The bandits begin to start deny, but one of them gets down on all fours and begs for forgiveness, shattering the facade. The Dragon seems really disturbed by this explanation, before the jackal says that these guys are going to own up for a lot of crimes.
----
At the end of the day, the bandits had been escorted back to Eluma, with various guards taking the bandits off of their hands and leading them deeper in. And as they're led in, Demiurge asks jackal why he supposed they asked for them to see that. Barroque can only assume that the admins wished to teach them a lesson. It is sad that the people around here are facing hardship through no fault of their own, but while Demiurge sees a collective that should be solved, the admins and him himself see people. And the truth is, people are flawed animals, likely to act in ways that'll hurt those around themselves. 

He explains that he himself grew up homeless in Mulga, and he's sure that he would've done as they did. But truly great people will push on regardless of what they're dealt, bear through the pain and try to keep the people around them safe. Metlo asks if they can't just make things easier so people like that don't get made, so that they don't become bandits. Barroque says that if they were to focus on people like those, that would hurt and kill in hardship as opposed to grow despite of it, then the whole of the society will refuse to grow. He says that he's not a fan of it either, but for people to make a better world, they can't worry about every individual like they're a helpless babe. Because the truth is that if the time really comes around, people like those will end up hurting the people around, even Demiurge.

Anyways, he says that he needs to go back to his post. Thus, he begins to walk away, leaving Demiurge with the other two. The Dragon asks those two if he's right, to which Metlo is quiet. Mz. Eruba, however, says nervously that he and those admin are just trying to psyche them out. Yeah, those people turned out bad, but that doesn't mean they should dismiss the whole as criminals. Demiurge affirms as much, though he admits he isn't sure that that's exactly the point. The leopard asks if he's seriously considering this, with Demiurge shaking his head. He says that he's just thinking... He says he's sure the thoughts will fade when he sleeps. Thus, he makes his way to the inn, Mz. Eruba looking like she wants to smack some sense into the Dragon, though she takes a deep breath.

;Octuar 1st

Once more the group wakes up, and once they do, Taruka and Omni will have made it back to Eluma. The group welcomes them back, and Demiurge asks if they found anything. The pangolin affirms as much, stating that they had to really hoof it to get here when they did. Omni explains that once they shared some info with Tegrobil, they'd pointed them northwards for some form of offense against Eluma. Metlo tells them to "get on with it" and just explain what they'd found out. 

Taruka says that they've learned the city's power source is in that structure on top of the mountain, right? Well, the city near the northern ocean has been working on machines capable of moving people without the use of livestock or whatnot. And among them is an attempt at creating a flying machine, which if they can get functional, they should be able to fly up above the city's defenses and breach the structure. It likely has guards upon it, but if they were able to get past them, they'd be able to charge into the structure, claim the power source, and basically hold it hostage until Eluma turns over to them. 

Mz. Eruba is shocked at the idea of a flying device, and asks if that's even possible. Omni says that they pondered the same thing and looked over the blueprints they'd set up. They say that the mathematics all check out, and if they were to gather the appropriate material, they'd be able to construct a device that'd at the very least lead them to the structure. Though, they'd have to fight like their lives depended on it once they got that far. Metlo rubs the back of his head and admits that that could be a problem. Just thinking back to Myla's power output makes him imagine what kind of firepower they'd be up against up there, not to mention they'd pretty much entirely isolate themselves.

Taruka says that it is threatening, but if they plan to put Alchemy in the right hands, then they need to go through with this. Demiurge, meanwhile, is thinking about how threatening this could be. If they were to go through with this, they'd upend a plan that, though it didn't have everyone's wellness in mind, it still was a plot for everyone as a collective to move forwards. On top of that, they did risk putting themselves in grave danger. However, if they were to pull this off, they could personally help out the ones overlooked and make sure these guys can't leave them to suffer.

Either way, Taruka says that if they are to go through with this, they'll need to uncover the necessary material, which means trying to uncover where x or y is sold, or to obtain the necessary material, potentially from the very earth itself. Metlo says that sounds like a good idea, and Mz. Eruba says that once they get the necessary material, they can get Myla in on this. She seems trustworthy. Taruka says that that soudns like a great idea, and thus the party sets out into the town, waiting for Demiurge to organize them. Omni, meanwhile, does take notice that the Dragon seems weary.

They ask how he's doing, and the Dragon says that it's just nerves. He's thinking about how much danger they'll be putting themselves in, to which Omni says that it does seem daunting indeed. But, the many people around here constantly perform in spite of danger. This whole group acted against the danger that lingered before them, all for the sake of what they thought was right. Omni is sure that he'll pull this off well. With that, Demiurge takes that in mind, and realizes he has a choice to make.

;Octuar 1st - Octuar 7th

With this, players have the chance to trigger a potential turning point for the era. Players have access to a sidequest that'll allow them to acquire the parts necessary for creating a flying machine, and this has a deadline of the 7th. Players can either take the steps necessary to complete the sidequest, or let time pass to not achieve it, and depending on which option is chosen, that'll alter the course of the era.
====Penultimate: Complete the Sidequest====
In this route, players decide to work on gathering material for the flying machine. This involves going around the northern area to either search for bandits, or to go to various black markets hidden in the overworld to find stuff. That, or to uncover caves around the area that could yield material. Either way, players have a certain amount of material to collect, and once collected, they'll get Myla's attention. The squirrel says that she'll get this stuff to the city to the north. The group thanks her, though Taruka tells her to be careful. Emula could be watching them potentially.

Myla assures that she'll be careful. With that, she begins to move. And once the material is settled, Demiurge supposes that now all they'll have to do is wait. Metlo says that while they wait, they should make sure that all of their stuff is oiled up. And with that, the players is given free time.

;Octuar 8th

Eventually, the 8th dawns on the group, the party getting up. Mz. Eruba wonders how long it'll take that city northwards to get their attention. Taruka tells her to be calm, they can't act too rashly. The leopard groans and says that they already put in the legwork. She says they should at least check out the city. She thus begins to head out, the party hesitant about following. Eventually, they do decide to follow. They make their way to the front gate, though Demiurge can hear some sounds a fair distance from the gate. He hears metal clashing, spells being slung... He thinks that they should check it out. 

The group heads out and approaches the source of the noise, where they can find... Myla battling some strange foes in metal. They look to be themselves machines, boasting a thin yet tall frame with thin blades akin to katanas. Myla herself can be seen being forced on the defensive, using her massive blaster to block oncoming slashes, though still taking a few nicks. She'd turn the nozzle towards the foes and fire, though the machines would manage to evade several blasts. Seeing her under attack, the party would race in to try and give the squirrel cover. Taruka asks what's going on, to which Myla says that there's no time to explain!

Either way, the party is forced into battle with the '''Machine Assassins'''. The foes are fairly dangerous, being agile and thus typically moving sooner than the other party members. On tops of high crits, evasion boosting techniques, and lightning and wind magic, they prove to require a fair bit of plotting on the player's part to best. However, with appropriate debuffs, ailments, and well timed healing, the party should be able to pepper the machines. With enough work, they'll be taken down.

Metlo asks what this was about, before Omni looks over the machines more carefully. They explain that these things were among those plans in Emula's documents. They ask Myla if Emula tried to take her down, to which she nods. She says that either she wasn't as careful as she thought she was, or they took notice of the movement of material to the city to the north. Either way, they must've realized that that city is developing something threatening, and thus a covert force has been sent to try and tear down their workshop. Mz. Eruba thinks back to that mission with Barroque, and realizes that Emula must've been keeping an eye on this region for a while.

Demiurge says that they don't have a lot of time. If these guys are going to destroy that city to the north, then they'll have no chance of breaching Emula's defenses! He says that they need to stomp out this attack force, pronto. Omni says that they agree with this course of action, but warns that if they do battle with Emula's forces, they'll probably no longer be welcome in the city. Mz. Eruba says that as long as she has the resource for it, she's more than happy to dump the city. Either way, the party now has a mission, and they have to fulfill it fast.

;Octuar 8th - Octuar 14th

The player has a shorter time limit than usual, but fortunately they don't have a dungeon to explore, per say. Instead, they have to traverse the forestry to the north and get near the city by the ocean to the north. There are normal enemies on the way over, but once players get too close, they'll have to worry about conglomerations of Emula enemies. But once they get within range, they'll see the city itself. It's a fairly big port city that's built docks towards the sea with giant workshops covering them and a portion of the sea to the north. There actually appear to be a lot of shacks of great size that must be containing various vehicles that they're working on. Other than that, the city is filled with concrete, and has various vehicles with large tires trying to cover the perimeter of the city, guards with rifles stationed behind the cars and using them as cover. This is the city of '''Ruto'''. 

Once the party sees it, Myla explains that Emula has set up strike forces around the area to try and break open the city's defenses. She wanted to help out, but when she realized how many enemies were in the vicinity, she realized she couldn't do this alone. Taruka says that she really wished they could've done this more covertly, but direct contact is a requirement in this case. She just hopes that they can take care of each of those jokers. Demiurge asks Myla if she knows of where the strike forces are stationed, to which the squirrel nods. Demiurge reasons that right now, all they have to worry about is defeating the forces around the city. 

With that, players are tasked with going around the area to points of interest on the map in order to locate the enemies at each point and clear them. There are four to clear out, each coming with their own brief scene:
*Along a trail leading south of Ruto is a portion of the Eluma strike force. This includes a pair of bulky machines, them joined by some wolf man with a remote-like device in his grasp. Omni explains that these machines were also among the plans, and that they are equipped with explosive devices, including explosives with adverse yet non-lethal effects equipped. They also warn that that stranger with them is sending electronic orders to the machines, and thus suggests that they should find a way to get at them fast. Once the player agrees, they challenge the '''Blast Force''', with the bomb lobbers and a controller, the latter of which is able to buff the machines and give one another turn. Additionally, this guy comes with a passive that allows the bomb lobbers to take damage for him if they aren't Knocked Down or suffering Stunned, Frozen, or Confused. With enough work, the players will have them beat, and Mz. Eruba will note that she thought that these things were plans, not present! Omni says that according to the plans, they were being developed already, plotted to be let out when they uncovered Alchemy. They suspect that, realizing the threat Ruto might pose to them, they decided to use some state-of-the-art technology to attack.
*Towards a forest to the west, there stands a large machine with a giant cannon upon its shoulders. It's also surrounded by several guards. Taruka says that according to the plans, this thing is projected to be able to destroy multiple vehicles. If they let that thing load up, it'll destroy Ruto's defenses. Demiurge thus says that they'll have to take care of it! Thus, the party rushes to battle the '''Destructor Force''', which consists of the large machine and the guards around it. The machine itself spends a couple turns charging a single attack before blasting either the whole party or one, an attack that'll deal a lot of damage to anyone hit, especially when it uses Pure attacks. Along with that, the guards around it each have a healing spell, meaning that if players disregard them, they'll be able to undo a lot of the damage the machine takes. Once down, Metlo looks over the destroyed machine, and remarks that it's a shame they have to destroy these things, it could really help in the fight against Emula. Demiurge, however, points out that that'd cause a lot of innocents to be injured, to which the canary supposes that he forgot about the fact that they can't get it up the mountain without going through the city.
*In the field to the west side of the city, there is a set of Emula strike members that are using a machine with big arms to shield themselves from Ruto gunfire and spells while trying to exchange fire. Myla notes that those guys are using higher power weaponry than she saw in Ruto's area, that even if they don't use the machine, odds are they'll tear through the guards if given the time. Demiurge says that they have to act fast. So, the party battles the '''Western Break Force''', in which they have to deal with a tanky machine that can use its turn to guard one of the guards for a turn, as well as various guards with decently powerful magic to pound party members. Multi-target spells should help wear these guys down, as well as certain ailments, especially Smell. With enough work, the party is able to defeat them. As they pant and pant, Metlo looks over the gear, and notices that several of these guards have been outfitted with prosthetics. He asks Myla if workers are outfitted with machinery like this, to which she says that she's heard whispers of it. The admins have looked into designing prosthetics with even more powerful firepower, to which Mz. Eruba thinks back to Barroque. Metlo scoffs and remarks "Fat lot of good it did them..."
*In the field to the east side of the city, there is a set of Emula strike members that are exchanging fire with Ruto's forces, though while the latter is using cover, the former are joined by a fairly small machine that seemingly constantly heals them. Mz. Eruba says that she can't believe they already got restoration magic functioning well in a bot like that. It looks like the people from the city can't get a good shot at it! Recognizing this, the party decides to battle the '''Eastern Break Force'''. During it, players have to worry about the guards who each have high magic stats, as well as the heal bot. On top of a party-wide heal, it has summoning magic, which means that it can allow a guard to either constantly heal off ailments, or restore HP. Worse still, the bot itself is highly evasive, though if players use proper debuffing, they'll be able to make it vulnerable to attacking, and when it goes down, the rest of the guards will follow suit. Once they're all down, Mz. Eruba looks down on the bot in disappointment. She says that a thing like that would be endlessly helpful in the city, but instead those admins are using it to try and help guys hurt more people. Demiurge agrees that it's terrible, and it's just more reason to mount an offensive. The leopard agrees, and says she's glad to follow him, but tells him to swear they're going to see those guys given the beatdown they deserve. The Dragon nods.

Once the four points are taken care of, the party is left panting, looking over the destruction on the field. Metlo notes that those new fangled technologies are no joke. Omni notes that the plans for them were very thorough, that it's good that these things were put out in a rush job as opposed to fully complete. Mz. Eruba asks if the inside of Emula's structure is going to have those worse ones, to which Omni says it's unlikely, though they should still act fast. Myla, however, will look towards the city, before saying that something's wrong. There's chaos brewing in the city! Demiurge asks how that happened, they took care of the strike force! Taruka thinks that the only thing that makes sense would be if another strike force were able to slip in while they were distracted with these guys. She wonders if they used the ocean to get behind them.

Metlo, however, says that whatever the case, they need to act now. Thus, the party now has the objective to enter the city and keep helping.
----
The people around the border of the city, having seen this party battle the strike force ''and'' having seen Myla is among them, decide to stand back and let the group enter. The group can see several guards rushing over to the large buildings near the docks, and along the way, Demiurge notices that, again, there's a lack of houses for individuals in this place. They race more and more, and can see a small strike force just outside one of the factories. Demiurge asks what that is, when one of the gunners, a gorilla man with large muscles, approaches to answer. He says that that building is where they're working on the flying machine. 

The party realizes that if they deal with these strike force members, those enemies will probably destroy the machine! The gorilla says that his group will weaken the guys out front, it's the least they can do! Demiurge appreciates the help, and Taruka brings up that this has to be the last of the strike force, and she has a feeling that the most dangerous one is threatening the machine. She suggests that the lot of them make sure they're prepared before they enact this attack. Thus, the player is allowed a moment to make any preparations before telling the gorilla that they're ready to defend the flying machine. Once the player gives the ok, the gorilla and group rushes the strike force guarding the entrance, allowing the party to press past them!

They get past them and shove into the entrance, rushing past it and into the factory floor. There, they see chains strung up and hung around, heavy duty instruments along the walls, and a very large mechanical frame in the middle of the room, it perched upon a platform with a hole on its underside for tending to its underside, and thick metal comprising its frame. The strike force is sees the party entering, and among them they see a machine as big as a van, it having a bucket-like top that looks like it could seat a fair few travelers. Beneath said bucket is a machine with spindly limbs and blades at the end of its arms. Myla realizes that this was the amphibian vehicle that came up in the plans! 

The strike force members draw their weapons, telling the party that this matter doesn't concern them! These guys were given orders not to develop this kind of technology, yet they've been garnering supplies and developing! Mz. Eruba points out that these guys brought multiple extremely destructive machines, but they have an issue with someone being able to fly?! The guards declare that any flying ability could threaten the structure that's been a part of religious development hundreds of years ago! They cannot threaten it! Demiurge says that he doesn't care about concerns like that! Things need to change, and clearly the only way things are going to change is if someone threatens their power! The strike force member grunts, realizing that they aren't going to talk them down. They say that they have to keep these guys at bay while they dismantle the flying machine! 

With that, players engage in a battle with the '''Amphibian Strike Force'''. The Amphibian Machine is the most immediate threat, it being able to hit heavy, strike with Slash and Smash, and bathe the field in Water attacks. However, there are the other strike force members to worry about, including someone that'll buff the Machine, one that'll heal the various guards ''and'' the machine, and one that'll focus on inflicting ailments on the party. Players will have to be careful as they approach this, chipping away at the forces assisting the machine will keeping their own health up as the foe lays into them. Additionally, the Smell ailment has a chance to make this fight easier, so players should feel free to abuse that. With enough work, they'll manage to defeat the strike force members, and make the machine spark and burst before it collapses.

The party pants and pants, seeming to struggle to hold up their own weapons. They look over the battle, seeing the foes laying dead. Metlo can't believe they actually managed that. He feels like he just beat up five different buildings. Mz. Eruba laughs and can't help but imagine how badly those Emula jerks are hurting after this fight. The gorilla from before enters, declaring that the last of the strike force is felled! He looks over their progress, and says that he would've expected nothing less out of the Dragon and allies, and thanks them for their aid. Myla tells them not to thank them yet. She has no doubt that Emula already knows that this attack failed and will probably prepare a counterattack. The gorilla nods, saying that that means they have no time to waste. He'll inform the leaders and get to work on cleaning. He also says that quarters will be prepared for them. Demiurge is tempted to ask if they can help, though he feels the weight of tiredness overtake him. He supposes they should hang back a little, the gorilla understanding, before leaving them in the factory, each left to mull over the fact that they're going down a path that'll bring them a lot of hardship...

The group tries to relax, hoping that no one will threaten the plane frame during this period. Despite the strike force being driven off, they cannot relax. However, the gorilla soon returns and tells them that they've prepared a resting quarters for them. The group thanks them, and thus the Rutoan guard leads them out of the factory, and through the streets. They're eventually led to a string of three buildings at the eastern edge. The gorilla explains that several workers get their own living spaces around the various factories while these are set up to house travelers and/or mercs. Demiurge thanks them, and says that they might have to stick with this place and Tegrobil for the foreseeable future. The gorilla says that that's fine, they've been given a permanent discount for their work.

Demiurge thanks them, and thus they make their way in, where, indeed, they have their discount. Now allowed to rest in this place, the group is thankful and heads in. And here, they find that the rooms are a bit more roomy than what the inns in Emula offered. Mz. Eruba already thinks about how she made a good choice. The group thusly sets their gear down and rests, resting off the rough day.
----
Following this, players have some free time until the end of the chapter. More time to raise stats, do side quests, and otherwise prepare themselves for whatever comes in the future.

;Octuar 15th

The 15th comes, the party having adjusted to the inns of this place. As they wake, the gorilla greets them again, explaining that they've taken the extra parts out of storage following the falling of the strike force, and now they're trying to work even harder to create the flying machine. The party thanks them for their effort, though Mz. Eruba asks if the thing will be able to accommodate Demiurge. The gorilla says that they've done a lot of calculation, and they're sure that all of their group should be able to stay on the machine and allow it to be able to flown, though they will ask group members to come in to test out the capacity.

He tells the group to relax for a little while, and Taruka says that Tegrobil may contact them in the future, and she'll suspect they may be called to them in the future. The gorilla understands, and ushers them off, though tells them to stay away from Emula. If they're correct about their assumptions with the city, they probably won't be able to even get past the gates. The group nods in understanding, and with that, the players are allowed to relax for the day. Players can explore outside, hang out with allies, deal with some side quests, or who knows what. And indeed, players cannot enter Emula.

Night soon comes, and the group is about to rest. However, Omni gets the Dragon's attention. Demiurge is curious and decides to follow the machine. They head up to the roof of the inn, looking out over the city while looking to the massive structure on top of the mountain. Demiurge notes that they're going to make history soon. Once they're able to get off the ground, they'll wrestle the power of Alchemy from those guys, and be able to empower others. Omni agrees, adding that once Demiurge gets the power, things will be better. The Dragon gives pause, and Omni glances towards him curious. 

Omni asks what's wrong, to which Demiurge says that he's not sure if it will be. He helped lead the people of the world before, helping them make that structure and settle it on the mountain. And since then, they'd grown and grown, until they're now at this point. He says that it's great seeing how big the population has gotten, but it seems like not all of the population is allowed to live as gracefully as the others. Omni mulls over the information Demiurge gave, before concluding that this isn't his fault. He had an image, and people drifted from it and settled into their own way of life, a way of life that implicitly threatens the people beneath those stronger. 

It's not just Emula truthfully. They've heard Metlo talk about the kind of risk he and others like him have had to go through in order to make something resembling a living wage. Mz. Eruba's shown them an awful lot about what they have to go through in the streets. Several have had to dedicate their bodies and minds to get a good job to live, and several have been forced to sacrifice even their bodies. They suppose Demiurge thinks life shouldn't be like that, to which the Dragon affirms as much. He thinks about how happy several of these people could be if they didn't have to go through this kind of stuff in this world. Omni agrees, and says that if more people would listen to Demiurge, things would be so much better.

Omni then has another question. They point out that Demiurge is regarded as divinity, as a holy being ordained to lead mortals on the path of life. However, when he spoke of his ideals to the admins, from Demiurge's explanation, it sounds like they didn't listen. Omni asks why he thinks that they didn't listen to him. Demiurge mulls this over, before players are allowed to answer "It'd require a lot of change" or "It makes them strong in this world". To the former, Omni supposes that it makes sense to be scared of a new way of life after living an old one for so long, but they should still respect the change if it's for the better. To the latter, Omni supposes that that makes too much sense, that these guys wish for life to bend to their whim, to be able to stand above everyone else.

Either way, Omni says that they're going to work together. Those admins are going to be made to change, and they're going to make things right with Alchemy. Omni promises to make a world that doesn't suffer like this world does. Demiurge thanks the machine, before shaking his head and remarking that sometimes he forgets they're a machine. Omni supposes that Tegrobil's efforts have paid off. Omni says that they feel smart, but can't wait to get smarter with Demiurge and the rest of them, and to see what they can learn from the new world. The Dragon promises to teach them as much as they can in the new world.
----
With this final scene, the chapter wraps up, and if they went down this path, players will move onto [[#Finale: Side Against Emula|here]]
====Penultimate: Don't Complete the Sidequest====
===Finale: Side Against Emula===
===Finale: Side with Emula===
==Industrial Era==
===Beginning===
Demiurge feels his blood rushing through his veins again. He gives his body a few shakes, though he feels as if he's restrained. He grunts and hefts, and through much strife, is soon able to move. He's forced to pull himself free from a few feet of soil entombing him, and once up, he lauds in the fresh air. He dusts himself and is able to get a read on his new body, it being around 10 feet tall and having longer horns, a longer tail, and thicker wings.

At this point, players are allowed to choose a class for him. As he gets up, he soon looks around. He finds he's risen from a grave of his own, with several other tombstones around, all within what seems to be darkness with what appear to be lamp posts positioned amongst the field. He sees on his tomb a pair of dates meant to represent birthyear and year of death, except his year of death was unknown. Beside his grave he sees that of Loonus, Nastlaya, Mongi, Dobi, Menlee, Mon, as well as others he'd come to known back in the Construction Era. Judging by the dates, they'd lived long after he was taken down by that Monster. 

As he investigates, he hears a familiar voice asking him if he's feeling alright. This isn't a safe place to sleep after all. Demiurge turns, and sees the pale Dragon that raised him, Sophia. He asks what happened, to which she replies that he was put to sleep yet again. As ruler, it's up to him to ascertain what all's happened during his time asleep, but for now she can say that the Lord of the Land had taken its last breath upon falling upon Demiurge. After that the foremen were later able to remove the beast's corpse and lay him to rest. Since then, they worked hard to their goal, and apparently decided the structure they'd originally envisioned wouldn't be enough for their desires. Demiurge asks what she means, to which she motions outwards. 

Looking out, Demiurge sees the fuller picture of where he was stationed. This graveyard must've been a very late creation, while everyone else built what looks like a set of arch-shaped concrete over this, forming a cross-shaped ceiling of stone above the place of reverence. And between the openings of stone, sunshine can be seen shining into the space beneath. Sophia says that the world is quite different from what he remembers, and says he should be careful. Back then he only had to worry about dumb ferals trying to kill him, but nowadays as mortal kind grows, so to does their arrogance and greed. Demiurge asks what she means, only for her to vanish.

Demiurge is confused, and takes a few cautious steps towards one of the openings. He steps out and looks back, seeing the concrete arches curved like hills and lifted up over the graveyard, which appeared to be fenced off with signs over it saying '''First Construction Memorial'''. As he stands there watching, he hears an odd noise akin to a chugging engine, not that he's heard one before. Looking back, he sees a sight unlike anything he's ever seen before. It was a large device of metal of a vague rectangular shape, a set of wheels positioned near the bottom corners of it that allows it to move forwards. The front of the vehicle has a bunch of various mechanical things he'd never seen before, each having connections amongst themselves or to somewhere else on the vehicle, though much of the pumps and wires appear to have some form of protective cover over them.

The device has come to a stop at the side of the road, before a door on the side of it opens up. Out comes a walrus guy with decently long tusks, what appear to be overalls, and a grungy-looking shirt beneath said overalls. He asks the Dragon where he came from, to which the Dragon is unable to answer, still clearly awestruck by the sights around him. The walrus is waiting for an answer, and asks him again. Demiurge shakes off the confusion, and apologizes, saying he hasn't seen anything like... this before. Only when he says that, he sort of motions at about everything around him. The walrus is clearly uncertain with the Dragon's words, and asks if he's feeling alright, sober and all? Demiurge swears he's ok, though supposes he's just woken up.

The walrus is still uncertain, though supposes he can't expect too much out of him. He asks where he's come, though Demiurge says he kind of just woke up here and he's not sure what's going on around here. The walrus supposes that he's stopped over already anyways... He asks the Dragon if he could use a ride. If he gets him to a city, then he should be able to collect his bearings. Demiurge supposes he'd like that. The walrus then walks over to the thing he drove in earlier, and Demiurge follows. The walrus climbs into his seat, and Demiurge climbs into the other, looking around the inside with curiosity. The walrus takes a key-like device, before slotting it into a slot in front of it. At that, the devices at the forefront of the vehicle begin to chug to life, and then it begins moving, prompting Demiurge to clutch at the seat beneath him in surprise.

Now, players are able to take control of the vehicle, able to drive around the roads. This opens up later, but for now players have a set destination to go to while being made not to stray too far from the path. There are branches of road and the occasional other vehicle, but the vehicle keeps driving, until eventually approaching a large collection of buildings, them forming a fairly thick ring of construction around one of the strangest sights Demiurge has had yet: a tower as thick around as a country, made of various metals, that stretches higher than the mountain range Demiurge remembers. The upper crust of it is hard to see, though there's plenty of smoke and such pouring form above, almost forming its own layer of black clouds. Arriving at this city, players have entered the '''City of Eminence'''.
----
The vehicle goes through the streets, these concrete slabs similarly being like what Demiurge saw before, although these ones are more straight. There are various brick/stone buildings around, each positioned so as not to obstruct the roads. The buildings are forming a sort of ring. Lampposts are around akin to what Demiurge saw back at the graveyard way back then. They drive more and more, before the vehicle stops at a corner near the start of the city. There, the walrus says Demiurge can step out and look for someone that could help him out.

Demiurge apologizes for taking his time, though the walrus assures waves him off. He says he had to make a delivery over here anyways, so it's not like he was going out of his way or anything. With that, he drives off deeper into town, in the direction of that giant tower. Demiurge watches the vehicle as it drives off, and looks up at the tower curiously. That thing was the epicenter of all of the last era's attention, and with all of this attention, he's sure that whatever's going on in their has something to do with the way the world is now. So, he feels he should go check it out. 

Players can check out the general area, where they can see several animals in low amounts of clothing, though they have construction padding taken off in nearby clumps. They appear to be trying to relax, and players can hear them complain about how tired they are. Either way, Demiurge presses through the streets in the direction of that walrus guy he saw before. As he walks, though, he soon becomes aware of some presences behind him. He looks back, and sees some odd guys stalking towards him, these guys in similar low clothing. Two guys, both looking drunken and looking on the creature. One's a lithe wolf man, one's a bulky lioness.

The wolf looks at the guy and says that he looks kind of familiar. The two look closer, when the lioness suddenly speaks up and says that he looks like the guy the boss guy's been rallying behind for their work. The wolf says that she's right, before saying that this guy's the reason they've been working to the bone this long. Demiurge raises his arms defensively and asks what they're talking about. However, the duo flashes a knife each and begins approaching. Demiurge seems ready to take arms himself, though another voice brings him to halt.

The group looks to the source, and spies a guy with form-fitting clothing, metal plating positioned over the joints and vital areas, as well as a helm. He's a coyote guy slightly more muscular than the wolf accosting Demiurge. He says that the two can be charged right now, and if they stand down, he'll just let them walk away. The wolf says he doesn't care, and the lioness says that they just have to take that guy down before he can do anything to them. The coyote, however, simply flashes out a baton of small size, and tells them he offered them mercy. With that, a fight starts with '''Irritable Man''' and '''Irritable Woman'''.

The coyote's not named as of the fight, but he seems to wield Smash and Electric skills, alongside paralysis and speed debuffs. He's a very straightforward kind of character, boasting a fair amount of defense alongside decent attack power. With him, players should be able to subdue the two assaulters, who're unable to stand in the proceeding cutscene. The coyote hefts either of the two over his shoulders and turns to Demiurge, apologizing to him for the annoyance. Before proceeding, he glances at him and notes that he didn't get a good look at him at first...

The coyote introduces himself as '''Officer Dale''', Demiurge introducing himself. Dale says that the Dragon should come along with him, so as to make sure he can charge the duo if he wishes, and because he wants to check something important with him. Demiurge is confused, though supposes it couldn't hurt. Demiurge begins to follow Dale, who keeps the two over his shoulders. The two head towards the tower, which is surrounded by a set of thick gates with guards around them, the majority in armor thicker than Dale's and wielding larger weaponry than his. He tells a pair at the front gate that he'll be reporting these two to the coordinater directly. Demiurge's confused about what he means by that, but the guards seem to take this well enough, and open the gate. With that, the duo are able to step past the gate, and into the construction site to '''Mortal Kind's Eminence'''.
----
The duo is past the wall, past the gate, and going across the stone road that looked like it'd account for other vehicles the likes of which Demiurge road in on. The roads lead to the tower, specifically towards house-sized doors. And beside those doors are smaller doors that it looks like people are allowed to go through. The duo approaches, and Dale leads Demiurge into the building proper. The inside boasts a city-sized room with various pillars with what appear to be dorms built into them, making them resemble thin hotels. Also, there're what appear to be lifts and stairs that lead up to upper floors, large slates of metal between various floors. 

Dale leads Demiurge through the walls on the inside and says that this here is Mortal Kind's Eminence, a massive monument to the efforts of mortalkind. Demiurge remembers back to the Construction Era, and he wonders out loud where the Wild Plains went. Dale raises a brow and wonders what the Dragon's referring to. Demiurge says that there were wide plains around the construction site with a bunch of trees in "that direction". Dale is still confused, though he shakes it off and says that they'll talk about this more later. For now, he needs to show Demiurge to the boss.

They step on one of the platforms stationed around the floor, and it raises up. It brings them several floors up, and around here, they can begin to feel the vibrations of construction around them. This floor, meanwhile, has what looks like several smaller buildings are positioned around, making the area appear like a small city. Dale leads him through the inside, before eventually stopping him before a building looking to be guilded with more fancy-looking material than the rest. Dale says that the boss is through these doors, and that he'll deal with the baddies in the meantime. 

Demiurge thanks the coyote, and the two split up. Demiurge isn't quite sure what he's getting into here. The world's clearly changed a lot, and stepping into this tower... It feels like stepping into a whole other world, where the environment is all pure and mechanical and cold. He shakes off a shiver, before stepping into the building. Within, he finds several guards similar to outside, and blueprints strapped wall to wall. They remind him of the stuff Loonus had, but there're far more numbers, far more shapes within several different circles, and all around the blueprints looked far more complex than before.

Towards the back of the building Demiurge had entered was a set of stairs leading to a raised platform, upon which a desk was sat with a ferret man in black, formal clothing. He was in the middle of sketching and measurements. He glances up at the sound of the door opening and closing and goes back to work on the sheet, before his eyes widened in alarm. He glanced back up and took careful vision of the Dragon, before letting down his equipment and racing down the stairs, him being around half the Dragon's height. He dashes around either side of the creature, clearly checking out the larger creature.

Demiurge is a little bashful as he's checked out, but eventually the ferret pulls back, wondering if he's seeing what he thinks he's seeing. He asks if he's a true, bonafide Dragon. Demiurge's confused at the exact question, but he says that he's a Dragon indeed. The ferret seems to jump up in excitement while pumping his fists in the air. He says that he's amazed, that the First Construction people didn't think it believable, but... He asks for the Dragon's name, and he answers "Demiurge". He jumps up again and says the stories were unbelievable, but now the one that helped set up the building is with them!

He clears his throat a little and admits that he's the current lead organizer of work on the Eminence, '''Myzak'''. He's been hard at work continuing the legacy of those before him. The tower's been the effort of hundreds of years, and now he needs to keep building this up. Demiurge seems admittedly weary about Myzak pushing him like this, but he clears his throat. He says that when he came here, it looks sort of like they've got things handled well enough on their end here. He came in and saw the tower far higher than he's seen before. At that, Myzak admits that it's not all sunshine and rainbows unfortunately.

He probably knows about how Makeet started its business, starting the mining and construction business and setting the foundation and all. Well, eventually metals started to get more and more scarce. So, they'd have to head out to gather more, but there's only so far one man can go on their own feet. So, his ancestors began establishing land-transport. However, the natural terrain wasn't in the best state for them for the most part, so they began developing roads that these vehicles would travel across to find untapped collections of material. They needed to set up settlements around those places in order to comfortably live there, and soon they'd have to develop larger vehicles that'd be able to transport the necessary material. 

Unfortunately, a few of these guys have been less than cooperative. They apparently wished to negotiate before they submit the material they've collected. Demiurge says that the tower's everyone's goal, isn't it? What could they want in exchange for its construction? Myzak answers that he wondered the same thing, and each of them want some of the most menial things beneath the shadow of the Eminence. Some want material for houses, some want more armed men among them, some want money, apparently some of these guys have been establishing their own small leaderships among these settlements. And he's been made very aware that these are very useful materials they're holding, so they can't simply ignore them. 

Demiurge says that that does sound a little troublesome. Myzak says that it's quite troublesome. Though with the Dragon here, then surely they'll be able to fix up these issues. They'll just have to go around the roads to the problem settlements, and then the material will be transported to the Eminence, and they can continue building! For now, though, it's getting a little late. He can direct the Dragon towards one of the living quarters on the lower levels and far away from the vibrations. He can relax there, and in the meantime he himself can begin organizing guards and a transport for the Dragon.

With this, the two separate. Myzak calls for a lady called '''Donna''', and from a short distance into the bunch of buildings, a horse lady in thick armor comes out, her looking sort of like a walking bunker. At her side is what looks to be a chainsaw in the shape of a sword. Myzak tells Donna that Demiurge will be their new guest and will be helping with oncoming negotiations. The lady gives a nod and says she hopes he'll be of great service. Myzak assures that he will, he's the Dragon of old! Donna says she can bring him to a good housing unit on the lower level, and she'll be sure the boss knows where he'll be.

With that, they take a platform down, making it to what's considered the sixth level of the tower, each level being over 50 feet high. On this fifth level, in comparison to the hotel-like towers on the lower levels, there are modest-looking houses positioned around the area. Donna says that the first few floors had built their buildings akin to support beams for safety's sake. But as the building got more and more sophisticated, that stopped being terribly necessary, so they began making the buildings like this. There're quite a few people living on this floor, but Demiurge's house should be relatively lonely. 

They go through the passages between the houses, before stumbling on one with a set of numbers carved into it. She says that as long as he stays in this house, they shouldn't have trouble contacting him. She'll go and report to her boss, and Demiurge can settle in. She thanks him for being cooperative, and the two split up. Demiurge, meanwhile, steps into the house, it being a single floor house consisting of several rooms (kitchen/dining, bedroom, bathroom, lobby, storage). Demiurge approaches the bedroom, feeling as if he'd just been told a maelstrom of information. He sits on the bed, takes a deep breath, and leans back on the bed, falling asleep.

;Augua 18th

On this day, Demiurge wakes up to the sound of some knocking on his door. Metallic clangs ring out the inside of his hut, and he gets up. He approaches curious and opens up, seeing Donna from before. She says that the boss's been organizing for the upcoming trip, and that they'll be heading out soon to investigate one of these problematic areas. Demiurge nods in understanding and gathers his stuff, before following Donna towards one of the platforms.
----
They head down more and more, soon arriving at the ground level. Donna leads him forwards, and they soon arrive at one of the large doors marking the outside. And there, there stands a fairly big truck akin to what the walrus rode in before, except this one has a more remarkable metallic design, more coverage over its vital spots, and it bears an emblem akin to a bee, though it appears to be accompanied by a draconic symbol wrapping its wings around said bee. Beside it are a few people.

There's Dale for one, him giving a curt bow before the Dragon. Next to him is a big st. brenard lady in hefty safety equipment, a pistol at her hip as well as a case of medical equipment strapped to her other side. Donna says that this lady's a valuable asset to the team. She herself seems to survive many a dangerous strike, and seems always able to come in to help anyone that could be in trouble. Demiurge goes to shake her hand, to which she delivers a crushing handshake and excitedly tugs him towards her in a hug, insisting that he skip the formalities. She calls herself '''Lin''', and she'll always keep an eye out for the lot of them. Demiurge struggles, before eventually she releases him, leaving him gasping. 

Dale says that unfortunately they may have to be prepared for anything and everything. They're going in with a few less numbers than they should, so as not to appear threatening, but if they're not careful, then those that they're visiting might be threatening. Fortunately Lin should be able to keep them healthy, and Donna should tear those foes down. Donna says that it's time to get moving, and so she steps past him to get into the driver's side. The lot of them climb into the vehicle, and it heads off.

After this, players are able to control the car again, and thus able to drive out on the roads. Again they'll be limited in where they go, and the player's prompted to use a specific road. This road leads them westwards, and players might recognize this as them heading in the direction of Makeet. They go and go, and players can notice a small settlement branching off in the direction of where Makeet would be, though players can't actually visit it right now. Instead they follow the road more and more, keeping straight west (and not in the direction of the mountain range they'd interacted with before). Eventually they go more and more, soon arriving at a city adjacent from the shoreline. It appears to have a set of roads, one heading north and one heading south, under construction. 
----
The group makes it into the city. It's presented with buildings that tend to be a couple dozen feet tall at most, a set of docks in the back with some boats (as well as a warehouse that seems partially built into the water), and all in all being 1/8th the size of the City of Eminence. This city is called '''Gimono'''. Donna brings the truck through the border and into it, and she tells the group to be careful. These guys have apparently been quite irritable and been in negotiation for a long period of time. They apparently want a surplus of material for constructing a vessel grand enough to rule the unexplored sea.

Dale remarks that they can't afford to spend much material, especially out in the depressing water. Lin says that it's especially an awkward goal when nothing's out there. What do they possibly hope to encounter with that vessel? Demiurge wonders if they hope to create some sort of monument themselves, akin to the tower. Donna, however, points out that they're already in the process of making one. If they're not contributing to that, then they're not contributing to the monument construction. Either way, they need to get out and convince them to change their minds. 

The group steps out and into the city. There are many a person walking the city, alongside guards in similar attire to back in the City of Eminence. Said guards begin to approach, a trio of a bull, a hulking tortoise, and a swan. Seeing them do so, the citizens begin to separate from the group, weary. The guards come closer, the bull saying that the three of them are Myzak's men. Said guard looks at Demiurge closely and says that he's ever seen anything like him before. He begins to ponder where he's seen him before, when the swan guard interrupts, asking if they come with the material they asked for. Donna says they've done no such thing, and don't intend to.

The swan says that if they're not here to give them what they want, then they oughta return where they went. Donna shakes her head and says they don't need extra material. They don't need to work on this device they're working on. There's nothing to get out of this endeavor, and it's just a pointless use of resources. The bull then says that they did the calculations: the means of completing the ship requires a little less than half the material needed to complete the average floor of one of Mortal Kind's Eminence. It's a negligible amount and they'd be more than able to find whatever the water hides from them.

Dale says that that's not worth it at all. They need to make their Eminence as grand as possible, and as quickly as possible. There've been many that weren't able to even see the device begin to rise, and if they're not careful, they just might fail to see real progress on that tower. The guards put their feet down and say they refuse to budge. Demiurge turns to the trio curiously, and they're clearly upset. Donna says that they'd better come back, they need to find some way to assuage their demands. They begin to walk, when the bull speaks up, saying he recognizes that scaled boy. Thick wings, long tail, claws and firm teeth... He must be the Dragon!

The guards then take an offensive stance, the tortoise saying that if they liberate the Dragon from the foes' clutches, then they should be able to spearhead their efforts towards their own devices. Hearing that, the party draws their own weaponry: Dale and his baton, Donna and her chainblae, and Lin and her pistol. Donna tells the group to get ready, and so they fight the '''Gimono Guards'''. It's a fairly simple fight: the tortoise is defensive, the swan is magic oriented, and the bull deals hefty smash damage. During this, the player finds that Donna deals hefty damage, has self buffs, and wields fire magic, and they also find Lin has restorative magic, water magic, and the ability to deal stabbing damage. With their combined efforts, they're able to fell the foes, who're forced to flee. Donna then says that if they're willing to go this far, then they can't linger here long, they need to return.
----
On the way back to the City of Eminence, Dale says that those guys are insufferable in their demands. Lin remarks that if they lost that ship, then they wouldn't have to worry about demands. Donna hears what she's saying, but says that if they were to try anything like that, then they'll certainly lose support. They may not be able to repel any attack from the city, but there's always the possibility that they could destroy the material they could collect. Donna says they shouldn't, but remarks that they'll never break negotiation at this rate, and they've got plenty other cities to go through.

Dale supposes that they should try and find some way to get rid of their construction site asap. But for now, they need to report their incident with Myzak. However, as they drive, they notice a vehicle from Gimono ride past them and towards the city. Lin wonders what they're up to, and the vehicle goes on more and more.

Eventually they make it back to the base and the group reports to Myzak on his floor. The ferret says that he was informed of what'd transpired at Gimono. He says that the people there assured that the actions of those guards are not representative of the city. As such, they've come here to submit them for their own judgement. In the meantime... He'll personally try to settle on something to do about those guys. He expects the lot of them to be ready for when they have a mission. With that, the day wraps up...

;Augua 19th

Demiurge wakes up to Donna's knocking. He approaches, and the horse tells him that she'd done some thinking. She decided that at this rate, their best bet is what Lin suggested. Demiurge asks if that's real safe, though Donna says they don't have many other options. They're refusing to respond to their requests, and they can't respond to their demands for now. Their best bet is to remove their bargaining chips. They need to be careful though, so they'll be out soon.

;Augua 19th - Septmi 1st

With this, the mission is decided. Head to Gimono, break into the warehouse in the back, and destroy their construction project.

Players are able to ride in, and make it to Gimono's border. They're able to step in and not get accosted, though attempting to interact with any of the guards has them ask if they're reconsidering. Interacting with Donna has her say that they need to find some way of halting construction without exposing themselves, and warns this won't be an easy mission. Interacting with Dale has him say that he doubts they have anything more remarkable than anything the City of Eminence can produce, though they still have the material itself to worry about. Interacting with Lin has her say that those guards seemed awfully quick to go up in arms when they realized who Demiurge was, and wonders whether the guards were waiting for some chance to axe the three of them anyways. Either way, players are tasked with heading in the direction of the docks.

Approaching, they see that there are many workers around the area, as well as guards positioned around the area. Donna remarks that they can't make a straight approach. They scan more and more, when Demiurge starts to question whether they have any water transportation or not. Dale asks why he's wondering, to which he replies the warehouse is partially submerged. Maybe they can use the water to get around the guards. Lin says that she likes the idea, but they'd have to bring such a boat out into the city, which could arrange suspicion. Dale brings up that they're near the shore, maybe they can find something.

With that, the player's prompted to investigate near the edge of the city to check out the aqueous area. They have to check out near the edge of the city further away from the docks, which leads them down a natural ramp towards the sandy beach. They step down, and notice several pieces of scrap metal dotting the beach, as well as the water adjacent from it stained black. At the end of the ramp, there's a sign saying "HAZARDOUS AREA: DON'T ENTER". The group steps past the sign and looks out, Demiurge remarking that this is terrible. Donna says that this is what happens when you got people designing things outside of the Eminence's design.

Lin says that that metal could scrape them up and leave all sorts of afflictions on them. And falling into that oily water would be akin to a death sentence. Either way, they look across the beach and can see it almost connecting to the warehouse. Donna says that this is their best bet for infiltrating the warehouse without raising suspicion, so now they go across the beach in the direction of said warehouse. As they progress, they can find a few looters trying to gather the junk, and will occasionally be forced to fight them back. A few can even be seen on boats out in the water.

They eventually reach the edge, where there's plenty of scrap around the area. They look across the water, seeing that there's still a few dozen feet between them and the edge. Donna says that they should've anticipated that it wouldn't be that easy. Lin says that they can't swim across, the water's too toxic. Demiurge looks over the scrap curiously. He remarks that the stuff must've floated over here, maybe they can use it to get across? Donna says that if it came this way, then the natural flow of the water must be pushing it over here, which'd make it hard to just float towards the warehouse. However, maybe now would be a good way to find some sort of boat to cross.
----
With that, they begin to search the city. Demiurge seems ready to go and maybe buy something from the city, but Donna stops him. Dale points out that they need to leave as little of a trail as possible. Demiurge asks if them using a boat would be that suspicious, but Dale says they shouldn't allow for many problems anyways. However, Lin begins to get a bit of an idea for herself. The group pulls away from the public view, where Donna, Dale, and Demiurge keep watch. Lin says she's ready, before coming out, now not dressed in her uniform and into a more citizen outfit. Demiurge asks why they don't just all go in disguise, to which Donna points out that everyone except Lin has status. Dale and her are prolific guards, and Demiurge was important enough for those random guys to realize who he was.

Either way, Lin walks off, and soon enters a shop near the beach. There's a sheep guy at the shop there. It looks to've once been a fishing shop, though there's little of that on the stands. Instead, there appears to be various candies around the place, with even a sign pasted over the old sign outside. The sheep guy asks her what she needs, to which she replies that she was wondering if she could get something ''more valuable''. The sheep's not sure what she means, though she leans in and says she could really use something for... personal business. The sheep pauses, though says that something like that would cost a pretty penny, especially if they're to keep this between them. Lin assures that she's sure, before placing a fistful of gold pieces on the counter.

With that, she's allowed around back, where the sheep draws out a small boat. Lin reunites with the party, to which she says they should be safe now. The shop owner doesn't want people learning about him giving out those boats those looters have been using. He's helped her hide it on the beach, so now they'll be ready. Demiurge asks how she handled that so well, to which she replies she hasn't always been as straight-laced as she appears. Dale affirms, saying that he had to turn her in one day. She'd ended up working with Mortal Kind's Eminence, and became a valuable member.

With that, Donna says they've been sidetracked an awful lot, and now's their chance to get on with their journey. With that, the group's able to get down to the beach, find their boat hidden near the edge of it, and are ready to head out. They just have to be careful of a few looters out at sea, and soon they'll make it to the warehouse.
----
They make it to the edge. There's a large portion of the warehouse submerged into the water, as if it's built to completely hide whatever's inside. However, near the bottom is a catwalk that the group can walk across. The bottom-most door is locked, but there's a set of stairs leading up that the group can go through. They go in, and find themselves looking upon several sealed-up boxes and oil drums, there being many guards parading around the location. Dale looks over all the junk and remarks that they have plenty of material to give to the Eminence. 

They're forced to progress, forced to sneak past the guards or fight them. They're able to get through the seeming hallways of crates and are able to look at the valley between a pair of walkways over the water. And between it is a fairly large structure, it looking to be as long as five street blocks. It's made up of a lot of metal craned into a bowl-like shape and still afloat, what looks like hallways and several different floors being set up inside. Donna says that this must be that device they're talking about. Lin points out that it's massive, there's no way the four of them can break it! Demiurge, meanwhile, ponders to himself...

He asks how it's floating, to which Donna remarks that it looks like it's shape is helping. If it were a solid block, it'd fall down, but the inside is hollow, which lets it be less dense and able to float. Demiurge then suspects that all they might need to do is break the shape to sink it. The beach is far away from here, so they're probably away from any sort of shore. Dale then asks how they'll do that, and Demiurge has a thought. His elders had a technique that might help, but first they'll need some height. The group looks around, and notices a platform with a crane positioned above the boat. Lin points that out, and Demiurge says that should be a useful point to strike down at the ship from. 

The group's forced to maneuver through the crates, weary of more guards and construction guys, and get closer. They soon make it to the ladder, where Dale warns that once they do this, they need to be ready for anything. After confirming that they're ready to go, the group climbs the ladder. They make it up to the platform with the crane on it, and look down on the hollow ship. Donna says that whatever Demiurge's preparing, now's a good time to do it. The Dragon nods in understanding and approaches the edge of the platform. 

Demiurge takes a deep breath and places a hand over his chest, taking a few breaths. He thinks back to what he's seen his elders do, and a glow begins to shine around him, the party members stumbling back in slight interest. They watch on and see the glow march up his core, up his chest, and up his throat. He cranes his head up, before hurling it downwards to belch out a beam of Pure energy, it screaming through the air and filling the warehouse with a quick and sudden loud noise! And at the same time, the beam came down and drove through the ship, the whole thing rocking in response! Even the water beneath seemed to've split on impact! The whole of the warehouse seems to've been knocked off their feet, a shockwave emanating through the warehouse that knocked down many guards and knocked over many of the containers in the building! And then, seemingly as suddenly as the beam came, it vanished, everyone still rattled. 

The party member even appeared to've been stunned, and were struggling to get up. Demiurge appears to be the only one still standing, him stepping back from the edge. The party's rubbing out the confusion in their head and trying to stand up, when they suddenly hear the sound of chaos below. The party looks over, and can see the many construction men and the guards looking on in worry, and running around in panic as the ship began to get swallowed up by the sea below. Dale exclaims in wonder at what Demiurge'd just done, when Donna says that he did what they were supposed to. Unfortunately, if anyone happened to be watching the source of the strike, they'd be able to trace the source of the attack back up here. They need to get moving, fast.

Unfortunately, the group looks down the ladder they came up, and would see that the guards are in a panic. Donna says that they'll never be able to sneak around while those jerks were racing around. Dale, meanwhile, is checking out the crane itself. He points out that this thing's probably moving the material around, and it's probably able to move around the roof. The group investigates, and finds several levers on the crane. Dale begins messing with the controls, and he's soon able to move the thing away from the ladder set they'd just climbed up. Unfortunately, this seems to've attracted a few guards, who begin to climb up the respective ladders in hopes of intercepting the crane when it gets to either of them. However, Dale's maneuvering causes the crane to smash into the platform near where they'd entered the warehouse in the first place. This tosses much of the guards on the platform off, a scant few able to cling to it. 

The group steps out, seeing that there's an opening between them and the way out. They quickly scale the ladder, unaware of the few guards clinging to the platform. They climb up, before turning towards the crane. The group's rushing to their way out, when suddenly the hook of the crane slams in front of them, cutting them off. The party turns, and sees that the crane they'd just procured appeared to've turned its attention on them. It raises the hook in seeming preparation, and Dale says that they have no choice but to fight it, else those in it will be able to report them. With that, the machine will begin its assault, and players are forced to fight the '''Warehouse Crane'''.

The Crane is a strange device. It has little utility Skills, save for a Charge attack that can deal an awful lot of Smash damage. it also seems capable of unleashing Fire and Earth damage. It is a highly damaging device, though throughout the fight, players will find guards from within the warehouse utilizing various attacks on the Crane. Demiurge wonders what's going on, to which Donna suspects they probably think that whoever's manning the device is probably behind this terrorist attack. They probably didn't notice the four of them getting out. Thankfully with the aid of the guards and the party's own skills, they'll soon be able to overwhelm the machine. It breaks down, explosions blasting around the cockpit. 

The crane is breaking, and it's soon unable to move, merely hanging over the water pit that once held the boat. With it down, the many guards are able to rush to the nearest ladder in order to investigate whoever may be stuck on the device. And while they're all dealing with that, Lin remarks that this seems to've worked out far better than they'd ever imagined. Dale says they have to get far away, fast. Donna says they've done what they can for now. Now they'll have to return home and see whether these guys are willing to change their tune or not.

With that, players are able to leave the warehouse, and are thus able to spend the remaining days doing whatever they wish.

;Septmi 2nd

On this day, the party drives out to Gimono again. Demiurge wonders if they'll have changed their mind, and Donna assures that they won't have the proper material for that boat anytime soon. Not only that, but their previous fight destroyed that crane device of theirs, which'd make progress on it even harder. They'd have to be either extremely stubborn or dumb to keep on hoarding their material. The vehicle keeps going, before stopping near the border. 

They walk in and start approaching the warehouse, where the guards approach. They seem a bit sheepish as they near the group. They near the party, and there's a momentarily tense moment. One of the guard approach, before kneeling before them. They say that they're willing to submit their material. Donna crosses her arms and asks what changed their mind. The kneeling guard seems unwilling to speak at first, before admitting that their plans have changed significantly. They can't go forwards with their former plans, and as such will acquiesce what they've gathered. 

Dale nods in affirmation and says that they'll expect a steady line of delivery. They themselves have a vehicle to transfer bits of the material, but they expect the city to be able to pick up the slack. The guards nod, and thus walk. The guards begin setting up the material to move material to the group's vehicle, and as they walk, a pair of odd folks are watching from afar. One's a lynx teen boy with a twin-sided sword strapped to his back, and one's a shield-wielding kangaroo woman. The two look at the group, paying careful attention to the Dragon. The lynx asks if they should approach now, though the kangaroo says now's not a good time. The Dragon's shown a shocking willingness to do just what they say. They need to find a way to isolate him from the group before actually approaching him.

Either way, the car gets filled up, and now the party's free to drive back to the Eminence.
----
They drive off, before eventually arriving at the city. They make it in, and guards within the Eminence approach. Donna immediately motions them towards they vehicle, and they set about opening it up to gather the many metals the vehicle'd collected. While those guards are working on that, the group takes a platform up and eventually arrives at the floor Myzak's at. They approach, and Donna tells him that they've done what they set out to do. The ferret's very grateful for that, and tells them they've done a great job.

The three party members salute in affirmation, while Demiurge nods, saying he's excited to see this thing get bigger. Myzak says that the four of them are free to rest. He'll examine the things they gathered, compare the amount of material they should collect, and from that decide on who to target next. With that, Myzak returns to the cabin he'd done a lot of his work in, and the three people Demiurge walked with beforehand. He's sort of used to them all palling around after a good job, but they seem to just be splitting up to do their own thing, like they were just clocking out.

Demiurge thus begins moving to the appropriate platform, having stayed here long enough to memorize where he sleeps. He presses a button, and down he goes. As he heads down, he notices one of the platforms going up past him. And as he does, he notices something weird. On one of the platforms is a bunch of people on a platform. There're several guards on it, each wielding a pistol on their hip, and a chainblade on their other akin to what Donna held, the four of them positioned around the group almost like a square-shaped fence. Those within the "perimeter" are dressed in tight, orange bodysuits, and bear thick cuffs around their necks. Among those people, Demiurge notices a wolf and a lioness.

Demiurge attempts to approach the edge of the platform he's on to try and look into them, but the platforms zip past each other too fast. He looked on at the platform those strangers were on as if he could possibly see whoever's on it through the bottom of it. He swears to himself that those guys were the same guys that'd threatened him back when he woke up. He contemplates investigating into this, but he has no idea of knowing where that lift's going. Perhaps he'll see those guys later? For now, all he can do is rest.
===Midway===
;Septmi 3rd

The next day comes, and Demiurge wakes, finding himself having woken up a little later than usual. Curious he approached myzak. The ferret says that he's still looking into who they should approach next. Donna and Dale are on guard duty while Lin's among the first aid. Demiurge asks if he can do anything, to which he replies that he's not sure if the boy knows a bit about construction equipment, or if he knows about one on one negotiation... He then says that he should probably spend this time educating himself. He recommends he check out the local library, a lot of people after the First Constructors published their knowledge in those books.

With that, Demiurge begins to go towards the lift, when his memory of last night came back. He was tempted to ask this man, but, him being alone with this guy with who knows what alignment in mind, he felt a little weary about saying anything. So, he kept on pressing forwards. So he reaches a lift, and takes it down to the ground floor, ready to go through the town.

---- 

He maneuvers through the streets, and makes sure to keep a careful eye out for anyone. There are a fair amount of guards on the street, and he does get a few eyes from citizens. He eventually makes it to the library, where he meets the staff, including the lead of the library, a sheep lady called '''Medya'''. She's able to direct Demiurge to a particular section, and Demiurge begins reading. Time passes, and Demiurge remarks to himself that there's a lot of terms he's gotta memorize. He keeps on reading, and as he does, the duo from before enter.

Demiurge tries to keep on reading, when the lynx boy sits across from Demiurge, the kangaroo beside him. Demiurge appears to've not noticed, too deep in thought. The lynx sits for a little while longer, before carefully stepping out of the chair and walking off. The kangaroo follows confused and asks what he's doing. He asks her how he's supposed to make a cool introduction to the Dragon?! The kangaroo sighs, and she says that's not important right now, they need to talk to him. The lynx nods but says that he can't just let himself look bad. The kangaroo shoves him forwards and they re-approach the table.

The lynx sits, and tries to lean back, looking casual, while the kangaroo stands behind to make sure he doesn't tilt too far back. He clears his throat, and gets the Dragon's attention. He sees the two, and waves at them curious. The lynx visibly pauses in thought, before stuttering out that he looks to be the Dragon. Demiurge is confused at the approach, and, with pause, answers that he '''is''' the Dragon. The lynx gives pause, before bringing the chair down on all fours, getting up, and stepping away in embarrassment. The kangaroo rolls her eyes and sits in the chair.

She apologizes for her associate, and calls herself '''Lonna'''. Demiurge greets himself, and the two shake hands. He asks what the two want from him, they clearly approached him because of who he was. Lonna says that she and her brother, the lynx, he's called '''Serio''', were born in this world, raised on stories of the First Constructors, and especially on the Dragon. His image is all over the Eminence's architecture, and ever since he "rose from the dead", his appearance has been lauded as a sign of the heralding of a new era, a jumpstart to the process of creating the Eminence. 

And, seeing how influential that Dragon is, she says that she figured he'd be really helpful for what they want. Demiurge asks what they want, to which she explains that this world... this isn't the right world for anyone in it. Now Demiurge can say "Are you sure?", "That's ridiculous", or "No way, you see that tower?". Either way, she assures that things are far from great. He probably saw it in Gimono, but clearly everyone's not happy with just working for the tower. They've thus far spent 500 years on it, and if they were to dedicate all of their time to it, then that means looking at the same kind of damned civilization with little variation to anything. That's why when you look at cities splitting from the Eminence, you see large, sprawling networks of buildings and goals separate from that thing. 

Demiurge says that he was there when they set the foundation, he saw how inspired all of his friends were to see the tower raise high. Lonna motions towards a nearby window and points out that it's already higher than any building, any mountain! And even so, does he have any idea what's been done to get it that far? Demiurge gives pause, and asks her what's been done. She decides to lead him out, and motions to the sky, pointing out the black clouds. She says that old books talked about beautiful nature, talked about the shining skies and the clean air. But she looks out there today, and can see the nature they talked so fondly of vanished, and the clear sky the talked of turned an ugly smoke black, and the clean air turned chokingly thick. And this problem is only expanded as other cities are built to try and contribute to its construction.

And that's not to mention what's happened to the common man. Demiurge asks what's happened, to which she points out that almost everyone's been forced to work a job only to support the construction. Those to operate the machine, those to do the heavy lifting, those to build the things for transportation, luxury shops to placate those that've slaved away, and those to treat those that are injured or poisoned by the disgusting mess the construction's creating. Demiurge can only look on at the sky, feeling a twinge of horror begin to take his heart as she explained.

Demiurge says that that doesn't sound terribly ideal. Lonna then says there's more. Those that do anything the upper men don't like? They get swept up by the guards and tossed into the Eminence to work directly. Those that are "imprisoned" don't get pay like other workers do. Instead their paycheck is the chance to end their forced servitude and eventually actually get money. Demiurge gives pause, and thinks back to last night. Lonna says that her and Serio grew tired of it, and want to put a stop to all of it. Demiurge gives pause, and says that he needs to think. Lonna raises a brow, and the Dragon admits that he's known some friends that wouldn't be happy to see this progress top. He just needs to think for a while. Lonna pauses, before giving a sigh. She supposes she should at least help him back to his resting spot.

With that, they walk back through the streets.
----
On their way over, the duo are suddenly aware of Serio approaching. They turn, and see the lynx from before being chased by a pair of truckers, a large and rotund elephant man, and a large yet muscular bear guy, the elephant with a pipe and the bear with a chain. Lonna tugs Demiurge towards a nearby alley, Serio following suit. Lonna asks him what he did, and he answers that he bumped into those guys and ended up knocking their drinks out of their hands. The three are cornered, and Demiurge asks why they went over here, to which she replies if the guards catch them about to do this, then they'll be imprisoned. 

Unfortunately, the two trucker guys corner them and flash their weapons threateningly, and Lonna  tells everyone else to prepare for a fight. With that, Lonna draws her shield, Serio draws his dual-sided sword, and Demiurge brings forth his weapon. The three fight the '''Mad Truckers'''. The two are not terribly threatening foes, this serves more of a slight demonstration of what the two can do. Lonna's a powerful defender, bearing low attack power but high defenses, in addition to the ability to draw enemy attention to herself, or to nullify a single hit of damage for a party member she targets. Serio, meanwhile, is a physical attacker that features the ability to strike twice in one turn, and even has the special skill, Summon Sword, which allows him to grant a party member the ability to deal a free Slash attack in addition to whatever action they perform.

With their combined efforts, the trio are able to fell the foes, each laying unconscious. Serio sheathes his weapon, sheepishly apologizing. Lonna sighs and says that truthfully, they shouldn't have threatened him like that. At the very least, the Dragon was surely impressed by that blade work. Serio seems quite thankful, and he says that it took him a long time developing what he calls the Sword Factory. There's a lot of blades stored in this weapon, and he's free to send them out whenever, either as blades for defense, or as individual blades. Demiurge admits that that kind of weaponry was neat.

Either way, Lonna says that she apologizes for the brief scuffle, and Demiurge admits that that's not the first time his first meeting's led to a bit of a fight. Lonna says that they're pretty close to the Eminence now. She'll see him off near it, then they'll split. They thus continue walking, and on their way, the kangaroo says that she will want to be able to move on together with the Dragon in the near future. He can think on what he's learned today tonight, but tomorrow, she'd like to keep on talking. She wants to meet him over at the southern road. That's the one that passed over the First Constructor graveyard. 

Demiurge assures that he'll try, so long as there's no mission tomorrow. Lonna nods, and thus she and Serio begin walking away, the Dragon now able to enter.
----
Now, Demiurge goes up and interacts with Myzak. He admits that he's struggled to keep up with everything the books had to offer, and the ferret admits that it's a lot to learn in one day, so he shouldn't be too discouraged. He should just keep at it, and if his predictions are correct, he should be free to learn tomorrow. He dismisses him, though Demiurge still seems weary. He seems to struggle with what to ask, before eventually asking what happened to those two that assaulted him back when he woke up. 

Myzak furrows his brow, clearly in deep thought. He taps the desk a bit, and sighs. He says that he hasn't spent much time remembering the faces and names of those that commit a crime. But if those two were found guilty, then odds are they're currently working tirelessly on the Eminence. Demiurge asks if that's entirely right, though the ferret says that they've demonstrated threats to good will and harmony. He's simply putting them back on the straight and narrow. It could be far worse: he's heard of some cities that've decided to lock them up and leave them to rot in some dank, claustrophobic room. Some execute them and leave them utterly worthless. Some... some do far worse.

He says that they're merely doing what's best for the Eminence. They serve a while, then they're free to pursue what career they'd done previously. Demiurge gives pause, as if contemplating asking him another question. But he decides that too many at this moment could be dangerous. Myzak asks him why he asked, and Demiurge answered that he thought he saw the two last night. Myzak shrugs and says that that's how it goes sometimes. Either way, they should go rest up now, it's getting late.

;Septmi 4th

Demiurge wakes up, and is again tasked with keeping up his education. Myzak's still trying to decide on a negotiation to complete, and the others are doing their usual thing. And so, Demiurge takes the lift down, and steps out into the city, though a part of him says to himself that he should probably have guards around him more often in this city before he sets out.

Fortunately it's a safe walk, and Demiurge soon makes it to the street those two talked about. He goes towards a large parking garage near it, and sees the lynx and kangaroo waiting there. The kangaroo waves him over, and Serio heads into the building. The kangaroo says they'll be on their way to one of those bending the knee to the Eminence. Once there, Demiurge can see why they need to end this. The Dragon asks how they'll get there, when suddenly a vehicle rides forwards, this one seeming to be less refined than what the Dragon's seen before, instead seeming smaller and with a relatively thinner frame.

Demiurge climbs into the passenger seat, and Serio is seen visibly tensing up. He looks back and sees Lonna in the back, as well as a pretty slim doe lady, a pair of crossbows at her hips. She appears somewhat older than Lonna. She's wearing normal civilian clothes, along with the other two. Demiurge asks who she is, and the doe introduces herself as '''Nonia'''. She calls herself the brains of these three, and Lonna affirms, though Serio likes to think he still has good ideas. Either way, Lonna tells Serio they're going to the place agreed to, he remembers where that is, right? He assures he does, and begins driving.

Players are allowed to drive again, though for now they're required to follow the road southwards. This takes them over the hill that was made to pass over the graveyard Demiurge rose in, and south more they go, soon arriving at a city a bit larger than Gimono. It stands on flat lands, and seems to be more based around digging. It has a ring of buildings set around the circular place, and players can see near the center there being a very wide hole with various cranes and drills lowering into it, there being trails for normal people to walk around to get lower. The player's arrived in the city '''Gadda'''. 

They park in a parking garage adjacent from the road leading into the city, and the party exits their vehicle. Lonna says that a lot of old veins were tapped out early on, so a lot of these people have resorted to digging into the earth where the veins once stood and creating cave systems themselves. Many landmasses have been torn down to prepare for this. Demiurge seems confused and begins to head up towards the upper floor. The group follows him, and he looks out across the area, generally in the northern direction. Demiurge was sure that there was a volcano around here once upon a time. Nonia says that it was probably another one of the victims. 

Demiurge uses his vantage point to look towards the center of the city, where he sees the hole as wide as 5 football fields. The angle doesn't let him see the bottom of it from here. Demiurge asks what happens if they get to the bottom. Lonna says none's gotten that far yet, but if they do, then odds are they'll move onto somewhere else, and carry the stink of corrosion with it, and to turn more greenery to dust. And as long as the Eminence keeps in power, this'll happen more and more. Demiurge is stunned silent.

Serio then says that that's where they come in, while posing dramatically. Demiurge turns curious, the other two turning to address him. He says that they're out here to defeat the forces of evil that threaten the planet they all live on. Thus they shall tear down the machinery that gouges out the land, poisons the waters, and smothers the air. He then points towards the hole and says that's why they'll- Only to be swiftly tackled by Loona, who holds his mouth shut. She says that he really needs to be more careful. But for now, this is sort of why they're here. They wish for Demiurge to be able to aid them in this endeavor, to begin work on tearing down the mining machinery.

Demiurge looks over the city, and feels kind of cornered. He still had part of his heart towards the First Constructors, but this is still pretty bad. Considering he's here already... He supposes that he can try. Serio leaps up excitedly and races towards the car down in the parking garage. There, he opens up the trunk in the back, before pulling up a bunch of clothing. Lonna grabs hers and brings it on, giving herself a layer of kevlar padding, a hood, and a mask over her face. Nonia dons a black, padded suit and some gunk over her face, almost wholly covering herself. Serio, meanwhile, dons a flowing cape, several belts over his torso for some reason, and an eyepatch. Demiurge finds himself looking on confused, and Lonna says that he's been reading some funny YA books. She then motions Demiurge to the hood and says they tried to get something for him to blend in, though Nonia remarks that he'll probably be recognized anyways, just means they need to be more careful. 

With that, Serio says they strike pronto, and Lonna orders they go to the loading bay, now.
----
The party heads towards the appropriate setting, having to head towards a parking area set near the road that heads north towards the Eminence. There there're several sets of garages that can open up to let the storage devices within be let out and loaded onto trucks, the likes of which are either out doing whatever, or are parked at the parking area. There're a few guards set in the location, and Nonia remarks that those guys are a little tricky. 

Serio says that they need to form some sort of entrance into the facility. That means either finding a gap in the exterior around the mining facility, or they need to find some way to open up those garages. Nonia says that they seem to only open up when a vehicle comes in to collect, but that unfortunately means stuff's going out, not going in. If they need something from the outside, then someone drives the gear through the gate. Serio then says that that means they need to find a way to open those from the outside then.

So, they try and approach, though the parking area's got a few guards around. Demiurge, Lonna, and Nonia linger back, trying to find some good way past these guys. However, Lonna peeks around and asks where the lynx is. They see Serio sneaking near the two. Lonna grasps her ears in worry and Nonia immediately begins readying her crossbows. Serio extends a blade from his weapon, and goes to bash one of the guards over the head. The guard seems unfettered, and turns towards the lynx. He pauses like a deer in headlights, and says he hadn't thought this far.

While the guards are sizing him up, each drawing a baton, Nonia aims and fires a bolt between the two, it exploding into a blinding smoke. Serio stumbles back before turning and running away. Lonna motions him towards them, though the guards are eventually able to escape the fog and chase down the lynx. They pull around the corner they're hiding by, and Lonna says they should get ready. They come close, and a battle starts with the '''Gadda Guards'''. It's also a fairly simple fight, though the guards are able to deal both smashing and stabbing damage with their batons and gunshots. Fortunately, the full party's more than able to take care of them, especially with Nonia. She has access to many ailments, as well as an ability to essentially cast Had or Cym on a party member as if it were a Buff (an ally gets healed each turn if the former effect is on them, an ally gets various ailments healed each turn if the latter is on them).

They're able to fell the guards, and each party member brings their weapons back. Lonna says that that was really dumb, and Serio supposes that it is, and he's sorry, he's so sorry. Nonia, meanwhile, looks towards where the guards were hiding, and she says that that boy's distraction drew the guards away from the others and gave them an opening. Lonna seems surprised by this assertion and looks, seeing that Nonia's telling the truth. Nonia says that now's their chance to potentially open up a path inside. So, the group steps forwards, Serio getting a little bit of his confidence back, and in they go.

The group's thus forced to investigate the parking area while evading guards around here. They're tasked with going to the various garage doors and testing them. They're able tor each the one at the far end, which Lonna's able to crane open with a combination of her shield and one of Serio's swords. They lever the door open, and each party member's able to climb in. They appear to be in a more dilapidated part of the factory, with a lot less equipment around while the door they went through doesn't appear maintained. Lonna remarks that there must've been some sort of factory malfunction around here and they've yet to repair it.

Nonia says that they're quite fortunate, while Serio says that this seems like a great part to set up the first checkpoint. Lonna also says that they've made some pretty good progress so far, but for now, if Demiurge wishes, now's probably a good time to return home and restock. Demiurge asked what if he were to expose them, to which she says that that's a risk she's willing to take. Truth be told, she believes that the Dragon does truthfully want to do what's right. She does believe that he'll help save the world, and it'll start with this city.

Either way, the party decides to break for now. They return to the garage and put their disguises away, before driving off. They stop at the City of Eminence, and Demiurge is let out. Serio says that they'll be working on this for the next couple of weeks, and they hope Demiurge can get involved. They'll wait here for sign of him. Demiurge understands, and thus heads over to the Eminence to rest, hopeful he won't run into any missions for the upcoming future.

;Septmi 5th - Septmi 16th

For this duration, players are able to head south in order to work on the mission in Gadda. Throughout this, they get to work alongside, and bond with, the rebellious party members.

They start in the garage they'd previously broken into, and they're tasked with pressing forwards, having to go through the insides. The inside has several more guards, as well as having quite a few wheeled machines that're meant to transfer containers around. The progress is slightly tricky, what with the party being less defensive than the previous group. Among the guards, there are people dressed in a similar fashion to what Demiurge saw on that platform on the night of Septmi 2nd. They're transferring material around the location and manning the various machinery, and Lonna remarks with disgust that those people are being used everywhere. Nonia says that they may've done bad things, but it doesn't warrant what these machines do to them.

They eventually make it towards the way out of the garage, and into the halls of the mining facility. Stepping in, there are more guards to go through, and it appears that there're many guards around here. Lonna says that they'll have to make their way to the various cranes and the cliffs inside the complex. There they can prepare to topple this whole operation. As such, this involves progressing through the halls to try and find the appropriate doors that lead to where you need to be.

Among the locations within, players will be forced to go through various locations, as in the process, they'll need to acquire some keys to get into the appropriate locations. 

Players are able to go to a set of quarters near the garage. Stepping in reveals several bunk beds with footlockers positioned around the room, with a few people in orange jumpsuits lying in them. Serio remarks that this is where those poor prisoners lay. Demiurge covers his nose and remarks that it reeks, Nonia saying that the prisoners around here don't have a lot of time to change their outfit or to bathe. They have to live in that. The party then has to move around, and will occasionally have to contend a prisoner that seems to want to get some sort of bonus for taking down the rebels. Searching manages to net the player some keys for the forge sector.

With the key, they're able to traverse the halls and head towards a set of doors, through which players are able to get into the forge sector. Here, there are many workers that'd taken the various metals from deeper in the area, and were setting them out on the forge, some being placed on a conveyor belt towards a bed of molten metal, before being spilled out into channels that shape the magma into appropriate shapes. And many workers, be they prisoners or otherwise, are seen later in the track and beating on the metal, forming them into bars that're easier to pack up and transport. Players have to deal with more guards and more prisoners, some of the prisoners now able to utilize fire and earth magic.

They progress further and further inwards, and as they do Demiurge notices a commotion. Among those working on the forge, there's one of many guards progressing through and observing each of the workers' progress, paying attention especially towards the prisoners. The guards are seeing using some form of restoration towards some of the guards. Among them, there's a blue jay prisoner man who's slumped forwards and not acting. The guard approaches said blue jay and nudges him on his shoulder. The guard pushes harder, and gravity seems to tug him down, yanking him away from his work station and crumbling to the ground. The guard nudges his side with his foot, only to get no response. He resorts to kicking a few times, the sound of cracking even being heard, and still no response. The guard seems more annoyed with this information, and proceeds to carry him on his shoulder, and walks off.

Demiurge asks what that was about, to which Lonna explains that the workers often get exhausted. They usually offer assistance to those that get paid, but the prisoners are usually left on their own, they don't actually get paid. If they pass out, they're taken away to rest. And if they're unresponsive then, then they get buried. Demiurge shivers at that, and says that this should be stopped. Nonia says that at the rate they're going, they should be able to end this factory at least. Serio declares that they shall press onwards posthaste. 

They progress beyond the forge and soon make it to the inner hallways, which seem to be what separates them from the outside. Nonia warns that they're getting close, but when they get close, they should each be ready to race on out. Lonna and Serio nod in agreement, though Demiurge seems unaware of what they mean by this. Either way, they progress forwards, through the halls, before soon getting into the mining pit, where many workers and prisoners are seen progressing down the artificial slopes to gather whatever material hasn't been gathered yet, and transfer them up to conveyor systems that feeds the material into the factory.

Once here, Nonia says that they're ready to prepare the deconstruction of the factory. They should set up the perimeter of the mining pit, and after that, up to the cranes. So the player's required to maneuver around said perimeter, interact with certain positions, and leave a bomb with a fairly long fuse, which Nonia's quick to cover up with some rubble. Throughout, players again have to contend with prisoners, workers, and guards. After that, she says that they can use some of the conveyor belts to get close to the roof, and then they'll be able to prepare the cranes' destruction. However, she warns that once those are set up, it's time to get out.
----
With the player's permission, the group's able to make their way up the conveyor belts and onto the roofs, where they're able to get to the bases of the various cranes, Nonia able to set the charges. Once in place, Nonia says that she'll prepare for the protest, while the rest of the group should begin heading to the way out. With that, the parties split, Nonia going around to the previously planted bombs, and the rest going towards the entrance they'd previously gone through. They march through the insides, and as they do, Demiurge asks how they're going to evacuate everyone. Lonna assures that everyone will be safe, before telling Serio to scout ahead for anything, which the lynx does emphatically. 

With him out of earshot, Lonna turns and says that this is one of some very unfortunate sacrifices. Demiurge is alarmed by what she's suggesting. Lonna says that if anyone were to warn those in here, then someone else could either investigate the place for their sabotage, or they could place them on a sort of suspect list. That's among what Nonia and allies say. Demiurge says that there are prisoners here, people held in these walls against their will. They'll die. Lonna says that by the time they're imprisoned, they're already dead. It's either die for a better future, or work themselves for death once they're caught. That's how it was for their parents, and that's how it will be unless they tear down all of this Eminence work.

Before Demiurge can respond, Nonia appears in the hall, seeing the two. She asks about Serio, and Lonna tells her she had to point him away when Demiurge began asking questions the boy wasn't prepared for. Nonia says that the fuses are lit, and now they need to go, fast. At this, a timer appears on the UI, and players have 45 minutes to escape, the timer pausing during cutscenes and periods of conversation. The group's thus forced to run as fast as they can, for the timer still runs during combat portions.

Eventually, they make it to the garage. They're heading to the hideout they'd initially setup, though on their way, Nonia gets the parties' attention and motions towards one of the doors. There, they can see a lot of parts getting loaded into one of the vehicles. Lonna asks how much time's passed, to which the deer answers that those trucks'll be out of here by the time the protest is finished. She says that if those make it to the road, the Eminence will still get a lot of material out of this. Serio says that they can't be allowed too much leeway! Demiurge asks if they should really do this, though Nonia says that this'll be all the better for felling Eminence. Without their supplies, their morale will take a toll. 

Either way, it seems Demiurge can't talk them out of it, and players are forced to battle the '''Three Transport Trucks'''. The trucks themselves don't actually act, instead boasting fairly high defenses and health. There are a few things to worry about in this fight though: reinforcements will arrive in the form of guards and workers, and the timer's counting (though here it'll start at 25 minutes). The reinforcements will utilize various techniques, including healing and techniques to have them take damage instead of the trucks. But fortunately, through the use of various debuffs, hard work, and through a steady stream of damage, players should take out each truck's HP, them each falling to pieces.

With those down, Serio stands triumphant, looking over the rubble. He tells Demiurge that he did amazingly, and that he's sure he'd be a worthwhile member. However, while he's turned, he's suddenly struck with a gas which knocks him out. Demiurge seems surprised, though looking around reveals Nonia's fired a shot from her crossbow at him. Lonna's quick to pick him up, and Demiurge is about to ask why, though Lonna says that he's not ready to see what's about to happen.

The group flees from the mining facility, and the bombs they'd planted get closer and closer to detonation. Eventually, their fuses reach the bombs, and they each explode, shocking much of the workers. The structure beneath the cranes start to collapse, and the devices hoisting the drill and other such cranes fall down, bringing the construction equipment either down towards the ceneter of town, or crashing into the city proper. Meanwhile, the bombs around the mining pit itself explode, causing the cliffs hoisting the factory to crumble, pulling much of the facility down. Workers still in the pit are only able to look up in alarm as several tons of factory and earth rubble come down on them. Meanwhile, a massive storm of dust erupts from the facility, covering the city while the whole of the factory falls to pieces, covering much of the streets and damaging a lot of the city infrastructure. 

Demiurge and party, including the still asleep Serio, are in the parking garage, Demiurge looking over the city and hearing the screams and wails of horror while guards are storming the streets to try and make sense of the situation. Meanwhile, Lonna says she'll be getting Serio into his normal clothes, and asks nobody watch. She walks off to a part of the garage, while Demiurge and Nonia are left alone together. While there, Demiurge is still just watching.

Nonia says that it's not pretty, but it's a necessary step in fixing this world. A part of her regrets dragging those two in. Lonna herself is quite remarkable, but that Serio brat's too infantile. Those that are to fix the world need to be prepared to hurt, and that lynx's still at that age where if he were to find out what he was actually doing... Unfortunately, Lonna didn't want to join, because otherwise she'd be split from that boy. Since they lost their parents, she's had to raise him on her own, and, eccentricity aside, she's done pretty ok with him.

Either way, if they really had a choice, those two probably wouldn't be here right now. But they managed to show themselves off well enough, and now they've shown a fair bit of progress in their performances. Demiurge meanwhile... he's doing really well for having just joined. If he were to become a full member, then the Eminence for sure will fall. She says that if he cares for this world, then he needs to prepare to get his hands dirty. They'll drive him back, and the three of them will frequent the city for any future response from him.

Either way, Demiurge's returned home, and players are able to spend the rest of their time doing whatever.

;Septmi 17th

By now, news has spread about the terrorist attack in Gadda. Vehicles are driving out to try and provide relief, while there's much chatter in the streets, them terrified of the effectiveness of the attack. The Eminence got a fair amount of material from it in the past, but it's still a major loss. That place of mining has been destroyed, and it'll probably take years for anyone to dig through it. And that's to say nothing of the losses... 

Demiurge thought to check out the city, and already he's hearing some bad news. While exploring, a guard finds him, her saying that Myzak's asking for Demiurge and the others to meet him on his level. Hearing that, the Dragon goes back into the tower and up to the floor, on the way bumping into Donna, Dale, and Lin. They convene on the floor with his cabin, and hang for a while. They linger outside his cabin, and each begin to exchange looks.

Lin asks if anyone knows who did this, and Donna replies that nobody was able to report, unfortunately. Dale says that there've been minor attacks and acts of protests. Some factories reported having bomb packages or having bombs strapped to their trucks. But this... They managed to strike in such a way that they completely tore apart the foundation of the building and tear it all down. They'd have to've been let far in so they could do that much damage. Demiurge feels sheepish, though asks for confirmation that these attacks have happened before. Dale confirms that their factories have faced quite a few attacks but nothing of this scale. Lin then says that it's unlikely they'll be ignored now. There'll probably be quite a bit of work going into destroying them.

And then, a guard opens the door, ushering the group in. In they come, and they stand before Myzak. Instead of writing on the papers or making calculations, he's seen with several upon several guns on his desk, him loading bullets into the lot of them. He saw the group, and welcomed them. He said that he's been... better. There'd been whispers of a terrorist organization, but now it's been confirmed. He stops loading his guns, before taking up a letter and placing it on the desk. Donna looks over it, reading it. It explains that this was merely one of several victories to come. The Eminence will come crashing down from the heavens, mortals' pillaging of the earth will be ceased, and nature will reclaim what was rightfully taken from it. They can shut down now, or they can keep up this fight. 

Lin asks what they can do, to which Myzak says that there's one thing they can do: rain the absolute judgement of the Dragon upon these heathens. They will locate these foes, find where they've cooped up, and destroy them. Dale asks how they can do that, to which Myzak says he'll be investigating long and hard. For now, he'll want the group to head out to see if they can do anything to help. The party leaves, though Myzak speaks up, saying that he wishes to spend time with Demiurge. This is probably really stressful for him, so he wanted to do something for him.

The party leaves, while the guards stand outside. Demiurge asks what Myzak wants to do. The ferret, meanwhile, pulls up the letter, and explains that he'd created an altered duplicate of the letter. He said he didn't want to raise suspicion with his fellow men, but there was more to the message. He then pulls out another letter, and it has much of the same, except Demiurge distinctly sees the terrorists explaining that they had divinity on their side, and were able to bring forth destruction unlike anything any'd seen before.

Demiurge feels the color drain from his face and he steps back. Myzak assures that he won't punish him, but for now, he wishes to know how it happened. Demiurge pauses, and explains, the screen blanking as he explains the story. The ferret soaks in the information, saying that it sounds like they exploited the boy's naivete. Demiurge swears that if he knew the harm they'd caused, he wouldn't have done it, and Myzak assures that he's aware. It hurts what Demiurge's done, but it does give them an opportunity. He's friends with members of the terrorist group, which means through him, they might be able to find their hideout. So, he'll keep the rest of the world in the dark so to speak. But in exchange, he wishes Demiurge to find where this group stays so they may finally bring rightful judgement on them.

Demiurge gives pause. Then, he asks if they have a point. Myzak raises a brow, and the Dragon asks if all of this construction is too harmful. Myzak asks if this is about the prisoners and the nature outside. The Dragon pauses, though that seems to confirm it for the ferret. He explains that as unfortunate as it is for the prisoners, they live in a world where some people apparently can afford to go against the grain. People like that need to be kept away from people they can hurt and kept under monitor. There're a lot of harmful people, and a lot of those people can't hurt others now stuck working all day.

As for nature... He asks Demiurge if the old world was all sunshine and rainbows back when it was owned by nature. Demiurge seems confused at that, and Myzak continues. In the old days, powerful creatures ruled the world, harsh weathers buffeted the commonfolk, and trips around the world can take many days and require them using many provisions. Hell, Demiurge himself had been slain by two powerful creatures, the likes of which would've gone on to terrorize the common person or worse. People who say the nature would be best for everyone only ever see the forest for the trees and not the dangers within, while the cities provide some form of safety, so long as the guards remain stalwart. He guarantees that if one day everyone were forced to camp for a while, they'd come crawling back to the urban paradises and would never ask for anything again.

He then turns towards Demiurge, and says that they as people have grown past such a wild world. To even attempt to crawl back to that nothingness would be akin to reversing evolution. And if these people did have a leg to stand on, if their cause were so just, would they truly resort to such underhanded and destructive tactics? Demiurge pauses and shuffles in place, clearly in contemplation. Myzak seems to consider the conversation over, and he tells the Dragon he wants what's best for the people, and right now, their best is the tower reaching as high as it can and achieving the dreams of old. He apologizes that others have gone and made it more complicated than that, the boy doesn't deserve that.

He approaches and comfortingly places a hand on his shoulder, which is a little tricky considering Demiurge's taller than him. The ferret says that they'll promptly wipe out these terrorists, and everything can continue as it should. For now, though, the Dragon's free to sleep. He's probably got a lot of stress on his shoulders. With that, Demiurge steps out and goes down a lift alone. As he does, he thinks to himself, pondering either "Is Myzak right?" or "Are the terrorists right?", depending on the player's choice.
===Penultimate===
;Septmi 18th

On this morning, Demiurge wakes up. He steps out of his resting quarters, knowing that he has a mission. So, he rides down a nearby lift and steps into the city proper. Once out, he steps out to around where he last saw Serio and group. He approaches, and can see the lynx and the kangaroo, the two seated at a tea shop. Lonna's drinking, and Serio sees him and waves him over. He approaches, and Serio says that he's excited to see him.

As Demiurge approaches, he gives pause, while Serio seems excited to talk about the previous mission, though Lonna's quick to cover his mouth and motion for him to quiet down. He's in deep consideration, thinking back to last night. But ultimately, he needs to at least know where these guys are holed up, so he can decide to either join them, or expose them. So, he says that he'd like to come to their home. Serio leans forwards excitedly, while Lonna seems uncertain. She says that she and her brother don't exactly have the permission to do something like that.

Demiurge asks if they can get permission from the appropriate guys, and Lonna says they should do that. And considering the Dragon's status, she doesn't doubt he'll be let in. They'll keep visiting here daily, so Demiurge merely needs to visit them. The Dragon nods, and the two get up before leaving, Serio waving him goodbye excitedly while Lonna gives a more professional wave. They're heading to the parking garage, and Demiurge himself walks away.

As he walks, he sees the vehicle Donna usually drives coming down the street, before stopping next to him. Once there, Lin steps out and tells Demiurge that the boss wants them to oversee progress on the Gadda recovery. Demiurge enters the vehicle at their request, and it drives off.
----
They arrive down in the worn city. The dust cloud that formerly enveloped the city is faded now, though there's still plenty rubble around the location, most of it being the mining facility, but several being buildings that've been shattered. Many people are left in the street without homes, it's stated that many had left Gadda in light of the attack, and there are several guards with excavation equipment that are trying to grind through the rubble to find anyone. The group's out of their vehicle, and Donna says that the two of them will make sure to keep the peace, and Lin will have to prepare to heal anyone hurt.

They set out, and for now, Demiurge's able to go around the general area and interact with the people there.
*There's several medical tents near the problem area. There he can find Lin alongside other medics, each administering restorative magics. In a lot of them, the afflicted are lying in beds and some are in recovery on wheel chairs. Some are seen undergoing training to work through the trauma and walk again, though many are still needing help. Speaking with Lin has her reveal that there's still a lot of people unaccounted for. They've recovered many bodies, many body parts, and many dismembered. They're trying to keep up spirits, but...
*Demiurge can approach the start of the excavation trail, where Donna is seen looking over the process. She says that the groups are working hard at getting through the material. They've got the sniffers out front trying to find any signs of life, and hearers with them listening for anyone. Workers are discouraged from stepping directly on the rubble for fear of putting any stragglers in danger. She can understand Demiurge wanting to help, but this is unfortunately a situation that requires very careful hands and equipment, and she's not sure if the Dragon's trained well enough in it.
*Demiurge can see Dale ordering a few guards by a soup kitchen set up near the location, with people in dirty and ratty clothing coming up to eat. Nearby, the crane that was blasted was downed, and workers are trying to tear through the material to make it small enough to take apart. Dale explains that a lot of homes were lost and a lot of workers without employment right now. A lot have left already, but many are too scared or lack the resources to go anywhere, so the people are trying to raise spirits at home.

After conversing with them, players are able to progress to the next story beat. The party members meet back up. Dale says that the guards appear to have the relief efforts settled. Donna says that the guards have made progress and were able to find a few more bodies. Lin says that they've been bringing vitality up, but the many people here were still suffering from trauma, and many of them were missing limbs still. Demiurge falls silent and bows his head. Donna says that this process will keep on, so they'll have to be strong for it. They may not be chosen to attend tomorrow, but for when they arrive again, they need to face whatever this city has for them.

They're about to leave, though the sound of glass shattering nearby is heard. They race to the noise, and find a group of looters have broken the window of an abandoned apartment and are heading in. Seeing that, Dale points and orders them to stop. However, the looters just try and speed up and race in. Seeing them resisting, the party races forwards to subdue the '''Looters'''. It's a simple fight, though a nice reminder to players of how this party plays, in case they hadn't done anything with them during the prior chapter.

They're taken down, and Dale and a few other guards group around the felled looters. Dale says that he'll work through the process of imprisonment is for these guys is, now that the factory's out. Donna says they'll be going back to the Eminence now. With that, the two parties part, and head back to the Eminence, where Demiurge sleeps the rest of the day away.

;Septmi 19th

Demiurge wakes up, and heads down to the tea shop he'd seen beforehand. There, he sees the duo again, though now they're accompanied by Nonia again. They see him, and Serio says that he's in. Nonia nods in affirmation, and says they'll finish this drink, and then head off. 

And so, they finish up, head to the parking garage, and drive off. This time, they take the road east. They ride out, before eventually reaching a part of the road. Serio looks out and notices a kilometer marker, these things used to denote how far cities are from the City of Eminence. The one he sees marks "150 KM". Once there, he sharply turns to the side, the vehicle swiping over the curb and riding over the soil and out. Demiurge watches as they go off road and head out south on the plains.

They head out more and more, soon coming upon an odd building larger than a football field, it having its own parking lot and what looks like an old mill for crafting asphalt. It's out in the middle of nowhere, several other vehicles parked in the parking lot attached to it. The group vehicle stops outside of it and near the others. They come out before heading to the shack, Lonna saying that sometimes guys made these buildings outside to give themselves little checkpoints to work on the road more and more. Less material needed to be sent farther distances. Since they completed this road, there've been very few workers left in the facility, when their organization came in.

They walk forwards, approaching the front door of the facility. Out front were a duo of guards, the two clad in plate armor and wielding a spear each. Seeing the group, they eyed them each, and spied the Dragon. Seeing the four of them, they spread away and motioned them forwards. The four walk forwards, led by Nonia. They open the door and pass through, finding a fairly plain-looking lobby area with what looks like timecards next to clocks that'd run out of energy a while ago. There's also a big desk next to a set of double doors, there being a person in similar plating there, a big axe in front of them. One can see muscular, tiger-like flesh through gaps in the armor. Lonna gives him a gentle wave, greeting him as '''Sten'''. He greets them, saying that they did great work getting the Dragon here. Serio nods excitedly in response, and so they press in, the duo opening up the door beside the desk, Demiurge now free to see what the terrorist base looks like.
----
Inside, players enter the '''Terrorist Base'''. One sees a fairly hollow-looking building. There're various silos with pipes attached to them and leading to long dead forges, each silo positioned around with scaffolding positioned to let someone reach up to the top of them. There're also taller silos with higher scaffolding to match them. Near the borders there are staircases that lead up to the respective scaffolding, as well as separate staircases that lead up to a bunch of doors stretching across walls on five different floors above the ground floor. These're presumably dorms for what would've been workers. Instead of workers however, there are numerous guards in heavy armor, a few gunmen with lighter armor, and what looks to be a few healers dressed somewhat similarly to Lin.

Nonia says that the boss'll be towards the uppermost floor. With that, players are prompted to take the stairs. And as they do, they can get a better vantage point on the floor, where they can see other people making bombs akin to what Nonia used, crafting poisons, working on weaponry, and so on. They take the stairs more and more, before soon making it to the uppermost floor, them passing various guards and gunmen that give a respectful bow to the Dragon. He presses on, and soon they approach a catwalk that leads over the factory floor and into what appears to be an observation platform, a closed off room with a big window looking down on the floor. It appears to have a similar catwalk opposite it and lad over the opposite wall, that one moreso having a bunch of silos as opposed to dorms.

They go through the door and find several desks and chairs, though they're spread to the walls. At the back of the observation platform is a desk in front of a similar chair, though seated at it is an important-looking man with a pair of guards on either side of him. The important-looking man is a strange cheetah man in light, spiked armor with what appear to be hardened braces over the arms and legs. His fur also appears grayed in certain parts. He sees the Dragon, and thanks Nonia and group for their efforts. Nonia gives a bow, assuring the cheetah, '''Maki''', that the Dragon will turn the tide for them yet.

Maki is grateful. He turns to the Dragon, and remarks that he's served the Eminence, and that he's served his subordinates here recently too. The Dragon nods and says that he hasn't gotten much of a chance to examine the tower, but he couldn't quite tell him all there is to know about it. Maki assures that he himself has seen the tower firsthand. He once lived in the city of the Eminence. He was young and saw a few of the guards harassing some citizen, so he stepped in to stop them. But they slapped charges of "assault" on him and tugged him into that tower.

He worked, and while inside, guards would continue to harass the prisoners, and he'd try and stop them, only to get beaten down and get his sentence extended. He's spent 40 years working his sentence off, and all throughout, he could see the darkness sewn into the Eminence. The guards were law and above punishment so long as no one else could expose them, he could see the sky get darker whenever he worked the higher floors, and he heard whispers of the tactics Myzak used to make those that object to the Eminence kneel. Demiurge can't help but shudder under the cheetah's words as he thought back to some of the stuff he saw.

Demiurge asks about what happened at Gadda, to which Maki says it was necessary. As he does, though, Lonna's quick to cover Serio's ears. Maki says that this isn't a simple issue they can ask for a few rules to be changed. They'd be better off tearing tearing everything down and building back up, and the first place that needs to start is with the fall of the Eminence. Demiurge thinks back to the past era, where the people there looked forwards to seeing this thing reach high into the air. Demiurge is quiet, and Maki raises a brow, as if waiting for him to say something.

Demiurge can say "..." or "But..." Either way, Maki seems uncertain. He says that this is a question of right and wrong. Demiurge can stop this, or let the evil of the Eminence continue. People will suffer, the land will get worse, and more families will be broken. Demiurge still pauses, and Maki scowls. Demiurge asks what he'd have him do if he were to join. Maki bares his teeth as Demiurge says "if", before saying that they need to trim the ruling powers. Even if they beat the Eminence, creeps like that will hasten its recovery and bring them back to where they are. That means those high guards, Donna and Dale, and Myzak have to go.

Demiurge seems surprised, and Nonia says that those two are among the most esteemed members of Myzak's staff. It'll take a lot of effort on their part to try and replace the damage done, and in that time, they may have a chance to deal a devastating blow to the Eminence. Demiurge still seems uncertain, though his consideration is halted when the door to the observation platform opens. The group turns, and sees a squirrel guy coming in. He seems to have a few small explosives, akin to what Menlee had. Maki sees the man, and asks what brings him here. He asks for whoever coordinated the attack on Gadda.

Maki says that that was a facility that gave the Eminence the material it needed. The squirrel says he had family there. He took a trip there and looked for them, only to find their dorm smashed under the rubble. He wants to know who's behind it! Lonna begins to step forwards and says that they only did what was necessary, when the squirrel raises one of the explosives. Everyone in the office gets weary, and Nonia flicks her crossbows up, ordering him to stand down. The squirrel, however, says that they'll pay, they'll all pay! Suddenly, Demiurge and the rebellious party are thrust in a battle with the '''Vengeful Man'''.

It's a fairly simple fight, and down he goes, overwhelmed by their attacks and knocked out. Maki orders his guards to seize this man, and they rush in to grab him and carry him off. Maki says that that's an unfortunate side effects, a few people being a little too narrow minded for this fight. They let short-term goals cloud a more hopeful future. Maki sighs and says that there was a lot of stress building in this office. He says that Demiurge can cool down for a bit, he just wants him to eventually get them ready to take down Myzak's top men. That means preparing an assault on the Eminence's barracks. 

With that in mind, Demiurge sets off back to the city, aided by the rebel party.
----
They make it back to the city, where the rebel party says they'll show up here each day whenever Demiurge is ready. If he wishes, he can just scoop them up and they'll make their attack. And if they convince him, they should be able to bring Maki along for the fight. Demiurge separates from them and goes off to the tower, where he goes to his floor. There, he sees Dale waiting for him at his cabin. He says that Myzak will want Demiurge's report soon. He nods, and the coyote begins to walk. He says that now's a scary time, but people like him and himself need to be strong in it. Because if they're not, they'll have to remain afraid unfortunately. That doesn't mean they can't rely on each other. Demiurge thanks him, and so Dale walks off.

Demiurge makes it to his momentary home, and now realizes he's left with two choices. The Eminence, or the Terrorists. People will get hurt either way, either in a perpetual cycle of oppression and pain, or through bursts of chaos and pain. Demiurge's forced to think and choose, one way or the other. He can hardly sleep as his decision jostles his brain. 

;With this, one of many different branches occur. It's not prompted by a simple Menu Choice. No, instead, players are prompted to meet up with one of two party groups and subsequently go to one of two locations. The article will detail either route, and will show off the results later.
====Team with Myzak and Group, attack the Terrorist Base====
;Septmi 20th - Octuar 6th

This route has players side with the Eminence's group. Demiurge goes up to Myzak's floor, where they find the three party members, in addition to Myzak himself, who's armed himself with several guns, among which includes two machine guns that he wields for normal attacks.

Myzak swears to the Dragon that they will give those worthless dregs of society just what they deserve. Players are thus able to drive wherever, though their mission requests they go to the Terrorist Base. They drive over there, and once there, Myzak remarks that a part of him imagined something more grandiose than repurposing an old bit of their tech. But he supposes he shouldn't expect much out of these foes. Either way, there's no telling what the enemy's done to prepare their base, so they should remain alert. First, Myzak says they should investigate the outside for any alternate entrances, they've probably laid some trap at the front.

They investigate, and soon uncover the garage area towards the rear, where the trucks would be parked and they'd load the asphalt on them. There's no telling whether or not someone could be keeping an eye out on this area, nor do they have a real knowledge of now many people are in there, unless Demiurge got a good look at all of them. The Dragon says he hasn't seen all of the facility. Myzak says that there's probably some form of guard in the back, though he's positive the front will assuredly be deadly.

Either way, they're forced in the garage area, where as expected, there are a few armored men, a few kitted in explosives like that squirrel from before. The group has to progress through them and eventually into the facility itself. Unfortunately doing so, they soon become noticed by several guards, the lot of them racing away and beginning to prepare themselves for any resistance. Donna says that they're in it now. Either way, she's prepared to tear them apart.

They go forwards, the many people inside forced to run away as the Eminence group goes forwards. As they progress, soon Sten approaches, him wielding the axe he was seen beforehand. He sees the group, and focuses on Myzak. He tells him that he's got some nerve showing himself. In here, there isn't a single person that isn't pissed at him. Myzak says that there's not enough hours in the day to contemplate everyone's feelings. He looks towards the future, and surely it'd do these morons well to start looking too. Sten says that he only looks to the future because he can't be bothered to worry about the people suffering '''now'''. Myzak grimaces at this, before drawing his guns. He says that he doesn't know why he's trying with these guys. They've already shown they don't deserve negotiation. With that, the fight with '''Sten''' begins, a fairly simple fight, though it's more a test of attrition. Sten relies on damage, and non-targetable foes will try to use their own skills on the party. Eventually, though, Sten's down.

He falls to his knees, and the group quickly pulls him away and towards the back. Dale says that this guy looks like he came from the front, and Myzak says that they should be able to get in through there now. Donna asks what they'll do with this guy, to which Myzak says that he wishes to imprison those that've threatened their way of life. So, the party quickly gets this terrorist captured, before returning to their mission. The party's thus forced to go through the base. They face various guards, and will find that the foes had blocked off the way up the stairs, which means that the player has to navigate the catwalks in order to get around the blockades. Random fights grow dangerous, because foes from the background will utilize skills on the party, meaning they receive damage from non-targetable foes.

It takes a lot of effort, but eventually they're able to maneuver around the catwalks, through the passages besides the dorms, and eventually make it to the stairs just before the upper floor. There, Demiurge sees the party members he'd worked with before. Serio, Lonna, and Nonia stand before him. Nonia has a steely expression, Lonna glares hatefully, and Serio just appears disappointed. Demiurge feels a twinge of guilt, before Lonna asks what the hell he thinks he's doing. Demiurge is silent for a moment, though can say either that "I can't abandon the dream" or "I can't support your destruction". The Eminence party grows confused, Lin looking back and asking what's eating him. 

Serio says that Demiurge was supposed to work with them. That he was supposed to help them wipe out the corruption brought on by the Eminence. That's why they dealt with the Gadda facility! The party members are stunned, except for Myzak. Dale asks why would he do that, Donna saying that they lost so many. Demiurge then says that he didn't know what he was getting into, though Donna shouts, saying that he's the Dragon. He's supposed to be some leader of the world, that he's meant to bring them to prosperity! He brought them to this terrible future, so why can't he get them out of it!? However, Myzak suddenly fires a warning shot to the roof, bringing the conversation to a halt.

He explains that the Dragon's seen the side of the Eminence, and he's seen the side of the Terrorist. He's had a chance to judge them both, and he's judged the Terrorists as wrong. They all have the chance to halt their resistance now and submit to the rightful way of life, and they should understand that to continue resist would mean to resist the Dragon. Their morals, their entitlement, their pleads for a "better life"? It's all been judged as wrong, and now the lot of them have no ground to stand on. Serio's will seems to waver and he stumbles back, though Lonna stands in front of him, refusing to accept this. Nonia then says that nothing "right" can result in the suffering Myzak's caused. If their group is wrong, then there's no way the Eminence is. And in that case, they refuse to let their group be the "wrong" that remains! Seeing his friends get hyped up, Serio himself brings up his weapon and steels himself. Myzak says that for digging their heels in the face of proof against them, then they're even more pathetic than they appeared.

With that, players are forced into a boss fight against '''Serio, Lonna, and Nonia'''. This party's fairly well rounded. Lonna still has her power to nullify damage for a target, Nonia still has her ailments and buffs (including her healing skill), and Serio can still use Summon skills. Nonia's the recommended target to take care of, but players should take care because Lonna will enact her defenses on whoever gets targeted more frequently, which means players will have to either focus on someone and have the heavy hitters beat her, or they'll have to utilize multiple hits to do damage to her. After her, it's recommended to go after Serio, on account of him being the damage dealer, though players have to worry about his evasive techniques. And then, they'll down Lonna.

Once the party's beaten, a cutscene plays, showing the Eminence party battling the Rebel party. Dale's after Serio, Donna after Lonna, and Lin and Myzak targeting Nonia. The deer keeps on evading and backing away while Dale and Serio are forced to exchange who has the edge, and Donna's chainblade grinds against Lonna's shield. Demiurge looks at either, contemplating which one he should contend with. He sees Nonia aim carefully at Lin and Myzak, and Demiurge, in a panic, rushes at her. He manages to ram into her side as she's evading, knocking her off balance and causing her to stumble while the gunners take aim. Then, they take decisive shots. 

Nonia's swiftly struck by a hail of gunfire, pelting her abdomen and limbs. She collapses onto her side, gasping in pain. Lin takes aim again, though Myzak holds out a hand, motioning for her to stop. He tells her to help out the others, and she breaks away. Myzak then walks towards Nonia, who's struggling to get her concentration back. Demiurge watches as the ferret approaches, and sees him stamp on her shoulder to keep her down. He orders her to surrender, only to receive a hateful glare, her using what little strength she has left to fire a bolt into his thigh. The ferret gives pause for a moment, before taking a deep breath, aiming one of his guns at her face, and squeezing the trigger. 

Lonna keeps on fighting Donna, when she notices what's become of Nonia. Her fight falters a little, which gives Donna the edge she needs. She sharply swings the chainblade towards the side, knocking her shield out of the way and allowing her to drive the blade into her side! Lonna wails out as the weapon strikes her, prompting Serio to look in her direction, his eyes widening in horror at what he saw. The mare's worked the blade partway into her abdomen, blood pouring down her side as Lonna's only able to look down fearful. She tries to reach an arm up to push Donna's, but she doesn't have the strength for it. Donna pushes and pushes, and though it's offscreen, Serio seems forced to see her chopped in half.

Serio's left staring for a moment, when Dale suddenly shoves him forwards, knocking him to his backside. The coyote points his baton threateningly, ordering the boy to stand down. The lynx just stares over at Lonna, terror filling his face. He glances towards Nonia, his horror growing. He says that they killed them, only for Dale to respond that he and his friends killed. Does he not remember what happened at Gadda, or is he too blind to who he hurts? Serio freezes up and says he was just helping, he was just beating bad guys. The good guys fled before anything bad happened. Lin asks if the brat's really that dense. Serio says that Lonna said... He was always told everything was ok.

Dale says that his and his friends actions got a lot of people hurt and killed. Serio starts to hyperventilate now, worrying more and more and more as Dale berates him. Dale raises his baton in frustration, though the lynx is able to dash away, evading the attack. He then rushes past Myzak and Lin and Demiurge, running headlong into the observation platform. Once there, Demiurge is only able to look on, really uncomfortable. Myzak asks what's over there, and Demiurge says that their boss is in there. Myzak says that this could be tricky and recommends everyone prepare themselves. 

They gear up, and then press forwards, before opening the door. There, they see Serio, sitting on a desk. He has a dull expression on his face, and no one else is near. Demiurge asks where Maki's gone, and the lynx says he ran off. He told him about what just happened, he ended up explaining everything to him that Lonna didn't. Donna says they need to press on, though Serio merely steps forwards, getting between them and the door. He says that he's not letting them through. Donna asks how he can still side with them after they've explained what happened.

Serio says that he knows about all that, but right now, he's not sure if he cares. This whole time he was told that they're all exclusively good guys, that it was just the Eminence saying a lot of guys are hurting. He supposed he never thought about how rough everything got. But right now, now that he knows how much blood's on his hand, he just doesn't care. Myzak may've made him bad, but their group still stole away his parents and his sister. Dale then asks what he expects to do, they just beat him. Serio holds his weapon with some determination, and says that he doesn't have anything to lose... their group saw through to that.

With that, players are forced into one last fight with '''Maddened Serio'''. Serio's got a buff to his health and his evasive ability, already starting the fight with Osg cast on him. In addition, he has some new skills: a summon skill that lets him summon two swords to enable him to deal slash damage twice in addition to whatever action he performs, Mellten to let him damage all party members with Lightning damage, and he now has the passive High Counter equipped, which makes it so he avoid a physical attack to strike them back at the attacker. With the ability to lower his damage and raise party members' defenses, players should be able to overpower him.

He's overwhelmed and brought down to a knee, though he uses his weapon to prop himself up, insisting on keeping on fighting. Myzak tells the rest of the party to move on to the other door. The party starts to run forwards and Serio goes to strike them, though Myzak fires at him to stave him off. The party continues through the door and Myzak keeps firing while approaching, Serio still trying to block. Eventually he gets close enough to stop the blade itself, before kicking the lynx down onto his back. He groans and tries to climb up to his rear, only for the ferret to straddle his midsection. The ferret says that he has a lot of nerve talking like he has some right to strike them down, while he lowers his guns and cracks his knuckles. 
----
The party manages to make it to the catwalk on the other side of the observation platform, the one near the silos. They look around, before Demiurge sees Maki and his friends rushing down to the garage. Demiurge points them out, and the party tries to rush down, though partway down, they can hear one of the vehicles drive off, indicating to them that their target's gotten away. As they talk, the ferret's able to meet up with them, though he's picking at his knuckles. He asks them what he's missed, and Lin says that a bunch of the members were able to scape while Serio distracted them. 

Myzak says that's unfortunate, but the good news is that this was a major blow to this organization, and not one they'll soon recover from. With that, he grunts as he manages to pull whatever he was picking at out of his knuckles. He says that now that they've cleared the base, they should head home and prepare for any other missions, as well as keep their ear to the ground for any signs of the remainder's reappearance. The party understands and goes off, while Demiurge sees what Myzak picked out as the ferret drops it. It appeared to be a tooth that'd embedded into his fist. And looking carefully at Myzak's trail, Demiurge is sure that he can see a sparse trail of teeth behind the ferret.

Demiurge seems weary about asking, though he's unable to bring himself to say anything as Myzak walks forwards, saying they've done well today. They've done about everything they can do, and though he bemoans the leader's escape, anyone responsible for it's been dealt with already. He thanks Demiurge for his aid. Now there'll be far less losses. Demiurge doesn't find himself able to say anything, and Myzak debates whether to host a celebration or not. He eventually settles that it can probably wait for when the leader is captured. 

With that, players are brought out of the base and back to the Eminence.

;Octuar 7th

On this day, there is a bit of a commotion. There are many newspapers set out with new information. They're telling tale of how the ones that struck down Gadda have been felled, and their Terrorist group has been torn to pieces. There remain outliers, but they're too small in number to be threatening. And upon hearing the news of the staggered group, many citizens seem excited, a few hollers and cheers filling the street.

Demiurge, meanwhile, has stepped out of the Eminence and looked on, hearing the cheers. He supposes that everything's working out, but at the same time... he shudders as he thinks about just what he saw. He also has no idea what they're going to do about Maki. He feels himself too overwhelmed as he thinks on it, before he heads into the Eminence. He goes up, and gets to Myzak's floor. He approaches his cabin, before stepping in and finding the ferret sketching. 

He greets the Dragon, saying that he's still not gotten any mission. Demiurge, however, says that he's not feeling too great. Myzak raises a brow in confusion. He asks if this is about striking down those guys. The ferret takes a breath and assures him that it hurts, but if they as a species learned anything, it's that sacrifices are needed to get to a better future. Many creatures were felled in the creation of their cities, but now many can live safely and away from those that would threaten them. If they didn't destroy those foes, then they'll certainly attack more places. Demiurge asks if they would've if they surrendered. 

Myzak gives pause, and asks Demiurge if he's regretting siding with the Eminence. Demiurge is quiet at first, and says he's not sure. Myzak's still for a bit, before he goes back to sketching. He says that he's been raised to see the dream of the old blossom, and he'll stop at nothing to let it blossom. Demiurge asks if he gave Donna the order to go through with the sabotage. Myzak merely repeats himself and keeps sketching. He says his forces will try and track down that leader, and in the meantime, Demiurge's free to do as he wishes.

Demiurge is still uncertain in his choice, and took some steps out of the cabin. And once out, he approaches one of the lifts, gives pause, and takes the lift down to the first floor, ready to do with his day whatever he could to get his mind off of this conversation.
====Team with Maki and Group, attack the Eminence Barracks====
;Septmi 20th - Octuar 6th

This route has players side with the Terrorist group. Demiurge goes to the tea shop, where they find the three party members, in addition to Maki himself, who's armed with the muscle braces and powerful martial arts.
===Finale: Eminence Route===
The day continues, Demiurge down on the streets. He walks around, and can find folks gathered around news stations, fairly young people delivering articles to some buildings, and so on. He can also find Dale out on patrol, him saying that it's kind of weird just hanging around the city after all that business with Maki and his forces. It sort of feels like he's walking normal while everything else's slow mo. 

Demiurge can find Donna over at the barracks towards the southern edge of town, her ordering those there around. Speaking with her, the mare explains that everyone needs to prepare for anything. Maki may be gravely stunted, but he was still able to form a dangerous group out of seeming nobodies. Who knows whether or not he'd be able to accomplish similar works. For now though, it seems like there're quite a few people better off.

Searching a few of the higher floors, Demiurge can see Lin below the scaffolding, having set out a medical area for housing the injured. She sees Demiurge and remarks at how weird it is going from all that fighting to here. It's almost like this stretch of the world is completely isolated from that outside. Sorta makes you think about how inconsequential those grievances out there are in the shadow of the Eminence, huh? Demiurge can't help but feel a little unnerved at the way she phrased that, though asks if she's fine just going back to business as usual. She answers that she can't exactly do anything else right now.

Searching the streets, Demiurge can even find the walrus that'd brought him up here to begin with. He greets the Dragon, saying that it feels like it's been ages. He asks him how's he been, to which Demiurge can say "Ok" or "Not good". To either, the walrus remarks that it seems like he has a lot going on right now. Several weeks after waking up, and he's dealt with the Terrorist group. He says that things've been pretty tricky as of late, and as happy as he is to hear about those guys, it won't get back his ma and pa. Demiurge remembers that the path to Gadda was near the graveyard he woke up in. He apologizes, though the walrus says ain't nothing anyone can do now. He'll get by anyways.

Either way, he asks the Dragon if he's had a vehicle of his own. Demiurge says that he hasn't had a vehicle his own, so he nods. He brings the Dragon to the parking lot, revealing an old vehicle that appears a wee bit smaller than the Eminence vehicle Donna usually drove. He says that this used to be his before he got the bigger thing, and unfortunately, he won't be able to use the big guy thanks to recent events. And at least for the time being, it seems like the Gadda factory won't be up and working for a while. So, he's going to try and start over somewhere else, and is just looking for somebody to pawn the thing off to. And, seeing as Demiurge kind of brought justice on the perpetrators, he supposes he should offer him a bit of a hero discount.

Demiurge supposes it might be nice to have some time to himself on the road, and finds himself needing to pay pocket change to get it while the walrus walks off to do whatever. Now Demiurge has his own vehicle, and players are able to swap between it or the Eminence vehicle, a purely aesthetic change. Either way, not counting other characters encountered through side quests, it doesn't seem like there's much else for the party to do today, and soon they rest for what news may come.

;Octuar 8th - Octuar 13th

These are days of free time, players allowed to do whatever. Perform sidequests, raise social links, gather equipment and what not. In the meantime, there's still an air of excitement amongst the citizens, though some are uncertain, especially with the knowledge that Maki is still out there. Fortunately, he's public enemy number 1, and forces are spreading the news far and wide to make sure any public space will be able to report him.

Things seem very quiet.
----
On the night of the 13th, Myzak's continuing sketching, when he sees Donna enter his office. He greets her, and asks what the occasion is. The mare then says that they made some brilliant progress. They haven't found Maki, but they did find his parents among the imprisoned. The ferret's brow raises, and he wrings his hands, remarking that this will be quite useful. He also asks if she's looked into that Sten guy like he asked, and she answers she has.

;Octuar 14th - Octuar 21st

More days of free time, the player able to interact with party members and npcs alike. They work more and more, before eventually the night of the 17th comes around. On this day, Myzak groups the party together. He tells them that it took them a lot of work, but they're able to draw out Maki. The party seems surprised. Myzak says the cheetah says he agrees to surrender, and claims that it'll take him until the 22nd to submit any and all equipment.

Dale remarks that that sounds kind of suspicious, and Lin is certain that this is a trap. Myzak doesn't doubt it, and as such he expects everyone to prepare for whatever might come. Maki will supposedly be coming to the City, which means they need to be prepared for whatever may happen. Donna asks if he's certain he won't just attack another city, to which Myzak explains that it wouldn't make sense. He's probably still low on material and low on men. If he intends to do anything, then it'll probably be either to waste their time, or one last attempt of defiance. 

This is Maki's last chance of any kind. Either he lets himself be captured peacefully and spend a lifetime sentence in prison, or he embarrasses himself one last time, and they have good reason to destroy him and whatever he drags with him. The party bows, and begins to walk away. As they do, though, Myzak signals for the mare, and tells her he wants her to get those parents they discovered. Then, he wants her to deliver pieces of them to that maniac. Donna asks if he doesn't believe what he says, and the ferret assures that this is one last bit of assurance. In addition, seeing as that tiger's brother's been found, he wants her to... ''talk'' to him. She nods, and then walks off.

With that, players are given the next few days to do whatever they wish, until the night of Octuar 21st comes, the party all grouping up around Demiurge's floor on the Eminence. Dale says that it's been a while, but it seems like one long chapter's coming to an end. Lin sighs and says that after this, they can finally get back to work on the Eminence. Donna tells them all to be ready, that tomorrow could be their toughest fight yet. There's no telling what Maki's going to do. Demiurge, meanwhile, can say "Let's look our best" or "Everything's riding on this".

The party agrees, and begins to depart. Demiurge, meanwhile, can't help but feel a little concerned. A part of him feels like a weight can finally be lifted off his shoulders as he gets rid of the Terrorist business he's just gotten involved in. On the other hand, he can't help but worry about what the Eminence will bring in the future. He takes a deep breath, and then heads to his hut to rest.

;Octuar 22nd

On this day, the party's meeting up outside Demiurge's house. Dale, Donna, Lin, and Myzak are there, waiting to see the Dragon. Myzak tells him that Maki should be coming today. If anything is to happen, now's their last chance to make sure any potential issues are covered. So with that, players are able to go around town to gather whatever last few items, to buy items or equipment, to arrange the parties, and so on, until they go towards the east part of the road, the road in the direction of the last base.

After choosing to wait here, the party spreads, several guards positioning themselves around the streets in preparation for whatever. Myzak, meanwhile, approaches Donna and whispers to her, her nodding as she goes off somewhere. The party thus waits and waits, until they see a large, truck-like vehicle ride in. It comes in, before coming at a halt in the middle of the street past the City borders. One of the doors opened, and out came the cheetah.

He stood outside the vehicle with an uncomfortably dull expression. He looked over the various guards and the party, all waiting for him. Myzak then speaks up, telling Maki to slowly open up his vehicle. The cheetah didn't respond and walked over towards the back. He holds the door briefly and pauses. He speaks up, asking them if they want everything his group has. Do they really want all of them? Myzak says that that is why he's here, to surrender his assets and himself. Maki grips tighter, before saying that they're not here quite for that.

He throws the doors in the back open, and at once, tons of the few remainders of the Terrorist group rushing out and firing at the guards with guns and explosives. More crawl out from under the truck and attack themselves, while Maki himself is running away. Seeing that, Myzak orders the party to go after him. As they go, however, they're beginning to get aware of the growing number of Terrorists attacking the City, seemingly at random. Donna says that they can't leave them unattended! With that, the party's forced to go around the City to three locations, where they have to destroy three '''Terrorist Horde'''s, them striking and even killing a few citizens with seemingly no discretion. And after they're felled, Lin says that those guys were dealt with, but they're undoubtedly a distraction. Dale then asks where Maki could've gone, and Myzak turns towards the tower itself. 

They rush towards it, and as they do, they can see, in the distance, the cheetah racing through the streets towards the Eminence. Guards try to stop him, but he races around the gunfire, before dispatching them with quick hand- and foot-work. He beats on the guards that try to stop him and he keeps on racing, and the party keeps trying to reach him. Maki makes it to the gates, when Myzak and Lin fire a few bullets in front of him, bringing him to a halt. He turns, and sees the party, including the Dragon. Demiurge asks what he hopes to accomplish, he's outnumbered. 

He says that he doesn't care. He'll devastate the City with his last breath, he'll stain this pathetic part of history with the memory of agony, even if he can't tear down the tower! Demiurge says that he wanted to stop the suffering, that he wanted to do right for the people. This is nothing but random violence. Maki declares that this violence is entirely brought on by Myzak. He arranged the meeting so that he could get his parents back, and Myzak delivered them to him in ribbons! Demiurge's eyes widen at that, while the ferret steps forwards. He says that he doomed many on this day. He could've allowed him and his friends to live as productive members, but instead they now have to waste them like scraps of garbage. He raises his guns and declares Maki has never had the right to make demands, not so long as he's only ever thought for himself. Maki takes an offensive pose and declares that he'll tear Myzak apart right here! 

With that, the cheetah rushes at the party, and the final battle with '''Raging Maki''' begins. Maki wields primarily attack skills, having access to all three physical damages, some Light, and some Dark. He also has access to Combo Passives, which means he can perform an additional powerful attack after he performs combinations of attacks, which, considering the fact he can act twice in a turn here, is very likely to happen. Players need to be weary of the damage he can do and the party's defenses as they progress.

After bringing him down to half health, he shouts again. He shouts at Demiurge that he's cursed this world. He's sided with an absolute plague of a man, a foe that'll stop at nothing to achieve goals that hurt everyone. He declares to the Dragon that he too will suffer, for all that will suffer because of his decisions. He rises, and the next part of the fight begins. Here, he frequently uses Beast Eye to give himself a third action per turn for three turns, he'll sometimes use Charge to increase his physical damage, and he has access to a very dangerous Combo. If he uses Dark-Light-Dark-Light, he'll follow up with the Pure Skill Quake, a powerful party hitter that'll really shake up players if they're not prepared. Be weary of his damage and hit hard, and soon you'll fell him. 

He falls to his knees and pants, overwhelmed. He can be seen falling onto his knees, struggling to keep from falling on the ground. Myzak smirks victoriously and remarks that, try as he might, his final breath turns to a weak gasp. He turns to the Dragon, and tells him to finish this trash. Demiurge seems startled at being put on the spot, and begins walking forwards. Maki pants more and more, and then turns towards the Dragon. In one final burst of desperation, he rushes forwards, suddenly bearhugging the Dragon.

Myzak and Donna stumble back, each motioning the other party members back. Demiurge asks what he's doing, to which the cheetah raises a fist, shifting his clothing to reveal an explosive strapped to his side. He angles the metallic parts of his muscle brace, and declares that this is for the damned! He swings his arm down, striking with enough force to cause a spark, and causing the bomb to explode, turning him into a red mist while Demiurge's blown back, bloody. He lies there, pained and panting. Lin's about to step forwards, when a gunshot drives her back.

They look towards the source, and see a saddened looking Sten having escaped the tower, him pointing one of the guards' weapons at them. He steps forwards while the party each reaches for their own, though Myzak and Donna still hold their allies back defensively. Sten then aims his gun down more, towards Demiurge. The Dragon can see his lips, him saying that he's sorry, before he delivers a magic-powered shot... and then, his world is black.

If players made it here, they'll move onto the [[#Eminence Era|Eminence Era]].
==Eminence Era==
Demiurge feels awful as he sleeps. He stirs and and feels around, feeling stone beneath him. He craned his eyes open, and found himself looking at the black void of space, planets and stars dotting it. He looks around in confusion, and climbs up to his feet, becoming suddenly aware of his increased size. He's twice as large, his wings as wide as his body, a tail as long as he is tall, and long horns. He looks about, and finds himself on a platform in the middle of space, akin to the architecture back at the Draconic Gardens.

As he looks, he can hear a familiar, motherly voice ask "Oh, dear Demi... what have you done?" Demiurge stumbles in alarm, before turning. He sees Sophia standing there, the two of them being the only people on this platform. He asks her what's happening, and what he's doing on the Gardens. She clarifies that these aren't the Gardens, she merely requested they provide her a platform. She doesn't mean to offend, but there're few occasions where a Dragon mustn't be allowed to awake ono their world. Demiurge raises a brow and asks why he can't.

Sophia begins walking to the edge of the platform. She motions Demiurge forwards and prompts him to look down. Demiurge approaches and looks down, his eyes widening in shock. From on high, he finds himself looking at his planet. Except instead of the cool, clean orb he'd seen before, he sees one with noxious, black clouds in the sky, and seas that appear thicker than mud. Any sign of green that wasn't toxic is wiped and gives way to a gray and lifeless soil. Demiurge stumbles back in horror and asks her what the hell happened.

Sophia says that the history of the world is still the duty of the Dragon that lords it. Demiurge clasps at his face and says he can't have failed, not this badly. Though Sophia affirms that he hasn't failed. Demiurge looks up curiously, and she explains. As long as there is intelligent life on a world, there is still something a Dragon can do. And despite appearances, life still lives on that world. Demiurge walks to the edge, and says he can do someething.

Sophia stops him, saying that a couple of things are needed. No matter how bountiful a creature's love, everyone needs to learn when it's time to cut their losses and put down a life that's too far gone. So, within each Dragon comes the power to end all life on a planet. Demiurge recoils, saying he doesn't want anything like that. However, she places a hand on his chest, and Pure magic flows into him, and he feels something unlock in him. At that, the player's informed that Demiurge unlocked the Skill "Armageddon". She says that knowing this is not to be feared, but to know he merely has the option. If he ever decides that the world's too much, then this is always at his disposal.

After that, she gets behind him and places her hands on his back. She says that if he were to land on that world now, he'd choke and succumb before he'll ever find them. So, she offers him aid in reaching the surface. Demiurge is uncertain about the whole general situation, but if it's necessary, he'll take it. She channels Pure magic into him, and he's suddenly wrapped up in magical light that wraps around his form. She says this will keep him safe until he reaches the appropriate destination, and assures him he'll know where they are. With that, she presses him forwards, sending him off the platform as the magic surrounding Demiurge tugs him towards the planet.
===Early===
Demiurge goes down, down, down, soon pressing down on one of the familiar roads. He finds himself near the graveyard he'd originally started in, which tells him where he is. The grass around is gone, the soil looks ready to crumble at the slightest pressure, and the road's in shambles, to the point where chunks of it's smushed the graveyard. He takes a few weary steps, and goes north along the road.

He goes more and more, and soon sees... it. He can see the City of the Eminence, it looking bigger than when he left it. But more notable than that is the ginormous tower. It was impressive already, but it seemed to stretch even higher than before, going far beyond those oily clouds the mortals themselves made. Instead of looking like a pillar of accomplishment, Demiurge feels threatened beneath its shadow.

He steps forwards and past the border of the City. And as he walks deeper into town, he sees more of the dilapidated architecture and roads. But more than that, he can see the skeletons of many past mortals... as well as ones that still have flesh. He's confused at this fact and walks more and more, unable to stop himself from looking at the various corpses. As he walks, though, he hears the whistle of something coming through the air in front of him, when suddenly that whistle turns into the loud sound of a smack accompanied by a crack. He turns towards the source, finding a lion man in what looks like a black bodysuit, though his form is twisted and contorted and his lower half's been torn out of place. He isn't bleeding out too much, suggesting he wasn't killed from the fall. What he does have, however, is dead and cloudy eyes, and what seems to be bloody vomit down his front. 

Demiurge feels himself about to vomit, though there's nothing in his system at the moment. He powers on and walks towards the tower, soon arriving at the base. He looks on curiously, and knocks on the door. Then, he hears a loud buzzer come from the door. He steps back and the large door begins to spread open, and he can hear the loud roar of fans shoving the toxic winds out of the chamber. Demiurge approaches, and finds himself in an airlock-like chamber. And in the corners, he can see, of all things, robots.

They have a very boxy look, seeming to be cubes with a single glass eye on the front while boasting arms and legs with shapes akin to cranes, the legs boasting manhole-like feet and the arms boasting claw-like hands. Demiurge steps into the middle of the chamber and the door shuts behind him. He hears the fans still going, before they power off. Then, the machines belt out a message, ordering him to stand still and to follow the guards once the platform reaches its destination. And then, Demiurge feels the platform raise up, and feels the magic surrounding him fade.
----
The lift lifts up more and more, getting faster and faster. Demiurge feels as if it takes an hour for the lift to get where it needs to, and eventually, it begins to slow down. It soon reaches its position, and the doors leading deeper into the tower open up, revealing an odd site. Inside reveals a city-like interior with several barrack-looking buildings positioned in a grid-like position around the floor, at the far back being a 7-story building with the emblem of a bee pasted at the top of it. Meanwhile, he can hear the sounds of machinery working on high.

Throughout the "streets" between the barracks were various guards, from what seem to be more machines like what helped Demiurge up, to larger-looking ones that looked like they could be ridden in, to various normal-looking guy in full body, mechanized, pure white armor. The one before Demiurge was a turtle-looking guy bigger than the average man, him wielding what looks like a mechanized axe with a glimmering blue edge. He has thick white armor with black peering through the edges of the armor, a set of camera-like eyes over the face, and thick plates wrapping around the shell.

The turtle tells the Dragon that the boss wishes to see him. Demiurge is too stunned with the surroundings to object, and thus presses forwards, the turtle leading him. Demiurge sees various odd equipment among the guards, from similar axes, to mechanized-looking swords, various assortments of guns, what look like thick gauntlets or boots, and so on. Either way, the turtle leads the Dragon to the 7-story building, stopping before a set of doors that looks as tall as two of those floors. The door opens up, and Demiurge can see several guards positioned inside, lining either side of the hall in at attention.

Demiurge steps forwards, going past those guards and glancing at each. As he presses forwards, he notices, at the far end, a lady with a lot of presence. She's a ferret that seems only slightly taller than Myzak, and wore a black uniform with the bee badge over it, black gloves, thick cuffs with mechanical braces around them, and thick boots. And behind her is a large machine with a body shaped like a ladybug, it boasting four sets of arms with large gauntlets attached to uncomfortably long limbs, same going with its legs and feet. The lady's seated on one of the machine's hands and looking at the Dragon with a judgmental expression.

She gives him a once-over while keeping the same expression, asking if he's ''the'' Dragon. Demiurge pauses, but says that he is Demiurge. The lady nods and hops off the hand, soon walking towards the Dragon, the robot standing upright and following after her, it standing as big/tall as Demiurge. The ferret says he probably met one of her top officers, '''Tena'''. The turtle bows in affirmation. The ferret says that she is the leader of the Eminence, the reason the world lives, and she's the reason the world will live on and prosper. She is the leader, '''Solumn'''.

Demiurge asks her what's happened while he slept, and she remarks that it's been a while since someone extended her a courteous greeting. Either way, she sighs and dismisses the guards. She then says that it's been 500 years since he woke. Way, way back when, Demiurge worked with Myzak and his Eminence workers. Around that time the Terrorist group was in swing and struck. They tore down many, but the leader'd fled. They located the leader, and then prepared a meeting, the Dragon having apparently agreed to work with the leader's plan. Demiurge raises a brow curious.

She explains that they prepared a meeting with the leader, but he didn't want a surrender, he wanted the complete destruction of the Terrorists and their way of thinking. So, he'd destroyed the bargaining chip, Maki's parents, and sent them to him, hoping to provoke. And, sure enough, the Terrorist leader rushed in on a path of vengeance. Many were killed in acts of random violence that day, ultimately ending with him exploding on the Dragon with a powerful bomb, and seemingly "on recovery to normalcy" broke out of imprisonment and finished him, but that was all part of the plan.

The Terrorist group was struck down, and Myzak was able to withhold the appropriate information, simply spinning it as a tale of wicked foes with wicked wants, likely using their hatred of the Eminence as a smokescreen for their evil. From there, and through implanting a few agents among the masses, Myzak was able to treat anti-Eminence thoughts as some sort of either inherently evil thought process, or a sign of evil infecting some poor soul. They even developed a saying out of it: "Mad as Maki". Either way, with that, any attempts at speaking against the Eminence were treated as cries of madmen, and the tower built and built, and so too did the poison spread across the world.

Several generations after that, the air began to choke out less healthy people, and people began to fear that normal were next. So, efforts were made to make the tower safe for any of them. It's air tight, blocking out any of the poisonous air, and now they live in here. The world they knew... It's long dead. All anyone in this tower can hope for is to build into something that can sustain them, and so it's been that the leaders kept on the process, and now the tower builds still. Demiurge is mortified. Myzak'd not only falsified Demiurge's involvement in this plan, but they'd used not just his death, but Maki, Sten, and the death of many citizens to press on with this tower, despite what it was doing to their world.

Demiurge says that this is insane. The world couldn't have gotten this bad, did they seriously keep building until people were dying?! Solumn says not to shout such questions at her. After all, ''he'' worked with men like that. Demiurge seems ready to retort, though his voice gets caught in his throat. Solumn begins to walk towards the door, the robot walking behind her. She says that the Dragon is technically a living being in this world too, so he too requires housing. She'll bring him to Tena, and he can bring him to his quarters.

She walks, and Demiurge sheepishly follows behind her, when he's brought to a lift the turtle from before stands at. He steps on while Solumn stays behind, and Tena signals for the lift to go down. And so, down it goes.
----
Tena stops the lift a few floors below the floor he was just on. Demiurge looks out, and sees a floor full of several-floored buildings, them boasting shining colors and there being fancily dressed people on the floor. Tena says this is a world that doesn't know about the Dragon, so expect to get by just like anyone else. Demiurge is confused at this, and steps off the lift and out into the floor, Tena stepping forwards to lead the Dragon.

Demiurge presses on into the '''Monarch Floor'''. Tena leads the Dragon through the streets, him saying they hadn't anticipated him being this big, but guards will make sure wherever he rests will be safe. In the meantime, he offers Demiurge the chance to look over the various shops and people on this floor. With that, Tena walks off, and Demiurge is allowed to walk around.

He meets various people, many common citizens in nice-looking suits that see the Dragon. They remark that he's far bigger than anyone they've ever seen. Many pay attention to him, though many seem a little intimidated by Demiurge. He can approach various stores, but can only peer his head in. Demiurge can find a shop for clothing, a shop for food (with what looks like an indoor farm for tending to ferals, vegetables, and fruits), and a shop for various self defense equipment. In each shop, Demiurge can also notice what looks like pipe systems that lead down.

Demiurge can also notice, near the food shop, a penguin lady in a dark blue tux who appears to be trying to look unassuming. She tells the Dragon she's just loitering, nothing weird going on. The Dragon's confused, though will leave her be. In addition, Demiurge looks overhead, and sees other lifts, including one positioned in the center of town. And high up to the top of ceiling, he can see large mechanical arms with treads on them, as well as what appear to be chains attached to them, lying in wait for who knows what.

Eventually, Demiurge's investigation gets interrupted as Tena speaks up, saying that it's time for the Dragon to rest, they managed to find something. Demiurge follows the turtle, and they approach an area of the settlement that looks almost as if one of those mansions were erased from the area. In its place is, instead, a large, air bag-like device. Tena says that that oughta be soft enough for the Dragon to lay on, and so the Dragon does. And indeed, it seems to contort nicely enough to his form. He settles into place, and starts to enjoy it, though his heart's still racing.

;Octuar 23rd

Demiurge wakes up, Tena standing before him. He tells the Dragon that the leader will be arriving shortly. He orders him to the center lift. Demiurge nods and heads over, Tena leading him while the mattress Demiurge rested on deflates. The Dragon approaches, and sees that the lift's already moving. It comes down, and the duo step onto it. The lift lifts up, and brings Demiurge into that barracks area from before. And around the lift, he sees many people waiting, including several guards, the ladybug-like robot, and Solumn herself. 

She sees the Dragon, and asks him if he enjoyed his stay. Demiurge says, wearily, that it was nice enough. She nods, and a few of those rideable mechs approach either side of the Dragon, who looks around weary. They flash on mechanical plates, before smacking them onto his sides, clamping over his wings. He looks around in shock, before looking at the ferret in worry. The leader tells him he was given a taste of Heaven. Now he can look up to it as he squanders away deep in Hell. 

The guards step back while Solumn looks down into the lowering lift, at which point Demiurge now notices walls raising up around the border of the platform, ready to cut him off. He looks up at the ferret, who explains that this is a world without Dragons. As far as anyone around here is concerned, he is just another man, and just as vulnerable. 
----
The lift goes down more and more, Demiurge still surrounded by a set of walls that've reached up to his neck. It lowers more and more, before eventually slowing down, and by now he notices the windows around the walls of the tower, which show the floor's at ground level. Demiurge peeks over the edge of the wall, looking over a far more messy floor. It has small buildings, with a few that're a couple floors high, he can practically smell rankness permiate the air, and he notices what appear to be lifts that go into the planet. These appear to reach up, and Demiurge thinks he remembered a few of these smaller platforms reach up to the Monarch Floor.

Now, Demiurge is on the '''Cockroach Floor''', and the lift soon reaches its position. Demiurge steps off the lift and walks out, the device racing up once he's off. Demiurge looks around, seeing that he stands slightly taller than most of these buildings. As he looks around, some people come around curious, trying to get a good look at the new arrival. Demiurge looks around, seeing that many of these people are currently dressed in bodysuits akin to that lion corpse he saw before. The many people hear appear dirty and smelly, with fur frayed and unkempt as they look up at him.

Demiurge hears multiple voices from the group, them remarking that he came from the higher floors, some saying he must've done something real bad to end up down here, and some asking how hot the guys and gals up there are. Demiurge feels somewhat overwhelmed as the many people surround him, though a loud noise clacking against the floor drowns them out, causing them to stumble back. The crowd parts as a strange duo approaches.

One's a rat guy, pretty short, with one of those matching bodysuits. He's holding what looks to be a large, rusty pipe about as long as he's tall over his shoulder. And next to him is a tiger guy twice his size and very muscular. He's also wearing a bodysuit, though this one wraps tightly around him. Said tiger can also be seen with a utility belt, which Demiurge notices on several people in the crowd actually, and attached to this belt is what looks like a pocket knife. The rat steps forwards and gets between the crowd and the Dragon, him stroking his chin and looking over the Dragon curiously. He ponders allowed, remarking that he's from on high...

He then turns to the rest of the crowd, declaring that this Dragon is now under the care of '''Kensey'''. The crowd's muttering angrily and starts to speak up in a rouse, though the rat clangs his pipe against the ground again. He clarifies that the Dragon is their business, and if they're gonna raise a stink over it, he'll sweeten the deal. As long as the Dragon's under their care, all of '''Dandy's''' services will have a discount. The tiger nods in affirmation, and at this, the crowd's still muttering, though begins to quiet down.

With that, the rat tells the Dragon to follow them. The Dragon's clearly confused, though follows anyways. He continues forwards and the crowd parts to let them go forwards. They press forwards, and begin heading through the roads...
----
They manage to go through, and Demiurge thanks Kensey for helping him out like that. Kensey says it's nothing. Besides, the Dragon can surely help him a bit, long as he can talk about the things he saw from up high. Demiurge swears that he can, though admits he's pretty new to this world. The rat's confused at that, and says he kind of just arrived at the tower. Kensey asks him how that's even possible, and Demiurge says that it's a long story, before a brief fade to black has him talk about some of the stuff he's done in the previous eras. 

After that, the rat seems perplexed. He says that that's some story, but hardly anything he could believe. Demiurge swears it's true, but the rat tells him it doesn't really matter right now. He still saw what was up there, right? Demiurge assures he did, and he says that means he's still useful. He and Dandy'll get home, Demiurge can make himself feel as at home as he can, and he and Dandy will take their usual trip around the floor to get money.

At that, the Dragon is curious. Kensey mentioned a discount... So what is Dandy's services? Dandy gives a nervous shiver and rubs the back of his head. Kensey says he doesn't have to say it if he doesn't want, and Dandy nods, deciding to keep it to himself. He then says that Kensey himself is a protection guy. He finds guys that're scared to go through certain parts of the floor, and offers them passage while beating away any nasty punks. That's sort of how he and him met. 

Demiurge says that sounds nice. They walk more and more, soon arriving at an alley. Demiurge asks which building they stay at, and Kensey just motions towards the alley. Housing costs money, and they need to save up a lot for whatever's ahead for them. Demiurge is concerned, though works his way in, having to squeeze in a little bit. He sits in, noticing not a lot of room for him. Dandy asks why he's still got those plates on, and Demiurge looks towards his clasped wings, saying that they were locked on. Dandy points out those lights are off, so they're disabled. Demiurge pauses for a bit, and brushes them aside, letting them clatter down. Kensey says that maybe this metal could fetch them some money, though they'll have to tear them down when they get back.

Kensey tells Demiurge to keep an eye on their junk, the dumpster there and the metal scrap too. They'll be back soon. He then turns to Dandy and tells him to be careful. The tiger swears he will. He approaches the dumpster and reaches behind it, before pulling out several scraps of clothing covered up in plastic wrap. Demiurge can notice the clothing he selected looking awfully... short... Along with that stuff is several pieces of paper that Dandy takes in hand and looks over the items. He knows what options he'll allow them, and he knows when to take out the knife. Kensey nods in affirmation, and tells him to meet back here at 9. With that, the two part ways, and Demiurge is thus left there in the cramped alley.
----
He waits here more and more, when he eventually hears the sounds of approaching guys. Demiurge raises a brow and turns, seeing a duo of guys in mere bodysuits. One's a fat warthog guy with a pipe of his own, and one's a lithe wolf guy with a knife. He sees them, and Demiurge asks them what they want. The warthog remarks that he took some pretty cool-looking tech with him, so he thought they should come check it out. Demiurge says that some friends of his sorta claimed it.

The duo approaches threateningly, and the wolf says you don't exactly get to "call" things on this floor. Demiurge begins to get up, struggling a little in the tight alley, when suddenly, Kensey appears and smacks the wolf with his pipe, causing him to stumble. The rat races forwards and stands next to Demiurge. He thanks the Dragon for keeping up the defenses. Demiurge asks where Dandy is, and Kensey says he's probably still getting money. Anyways, he says they should take out these guys.

With that, the duo battle the '''Muggers'''. The duo aren't anything to write home about, this serving more as a decent overview of Kensey himself. He has a fair amount of defense, though physical attack's clearly his favored stat as he deals pretty powerful blows with it. He even has access to skills that, in addition to dealing Physical damage, also have a chance of delivering a debilitating debuff. Throw in debuffs, and he seems like a fairly straightforward character.

They're able to overwhelm the duo, who're forced to flee. With that, Kensey sighs and props his pipe up before turning towards Demiurge, saying that he's quite the interesting sort. Demiurge says that he has heard his story. Kensey shrugs at it, clearly still uncertain about the validity, but says that, anyways, he's got a fair amount of gold for tomorrow. He says that this should be enough to get the three of them a meal, and maybe their savings will turn into something really useful.

For now, they wait until Dandy himself returns, him wiping his brow while he's adjusting his bodysuit. Kensey waves him over, and Dandy says he got a fair amount. He walks, and Kensey notices he's sort of wincing. He asks the tiger if he's being careful, and the tiger swears he is, he just stepped on a step wrong. He comes over and sits next to the group. Demiurge says they seem... ok. Kensey says things haven't been the best, but sometimes, you can only do the best you can for yourself. Anyways, now's a good time to talk about what Demiurge's seen up there...

After a cutaway, Kensey glowers, Dandy himself seeming upset. Kensey says those guys are far from the mines, and probably spend little time actually working while them down here scrounge through the annals of the world. Meanwhile, they're acting all rich and not worrying about anything. Kensey says that it's too late to be worrying about this... He says they should turn in the scrap tomorrow, get some food, then deal with this more. With that, the party rests.

;Octuar 24th

There's a soft yet loud chime ringing through the floor. The party stirs and wakes up and Demiurge asks what that is. Kensey asks if he hadn't heard that up on the other floors. Demiurge swears he hasn't, and Kensey grumbles in annoyance. He says that that tone signifies that it's morning at 7 AM. A good indicator for workers to get ready. Anyways, they've got work to contend with. He says that Demiurge seems able to defend himself, so he and Dandy will turn in the junk, and he asks Demiurge to scrounge up some breakfast for them.

With that, Kensey tells him where the nearest food shop is, he hands him the money they'd collected, and the party splits. Demiurge progresses through the streets, still needing to get used to his size in this confined space as he approaches the appropriate building. He gets there, and, struggling to get in, he's able to pop his head through the door, finding a porcupine man in a beige coat and that usual bodysuit. He seems surprised, though Demiurge assures he just wants food here. The porcupine calms down and notes he hadn't seen the Dragon before. Demiurge introduces himself, and the porcupine introduces himself as '''Clance'''. 

He shows off the various foods available, and Demiurge notices that this stuff was on the Monarch Floor. Clance motions him towards the menu-like board hanging over the counter, and Demiurge sees that the food here is really expensive. Demiurge's former uncertainty is quickly replaced by annoyance. He declares to Clance that he saw this same stuff several floors up, and he saw the prices up there. Why is it five times as expensive down here?! Clance says that he probably refers to one of those floors that have the material to produce their products. They then have to deliver it down here, and they demand payment back for the goods they send. Demiurge notices pipes in his shop similar to what's above, and he asks what those pipes are for. Clance says that they're part of delivery. They provide them food, they ask for money for the products they gives, and he delivers money for their service. Now is he buying anything or not?

Demiurge is forced to part with a pretty penny, and leaves the shop. He returns to the alley from before, and waits for Kensey and Dandy to return. And sure enough, they come back, seeing the food. Demiurge tells them that the food is super expensive. He tells them about how everything in the shop went, and Kensey himself seems upset. He says that that's just how it is, the guys up high get access to stuff they need, then force everybody to pay exuberant amounts and keeps them lapping away at whatever resources might be available.

Solumn tells everybody they can get to higher floors if they make enough money to get housing and a lift up there, but they need to use that money for their limited services down here. Dandy then says that he was able to remain a couple floors up, but eventually some jerks robbed him, so he was forced down here with nothing but his clothes. Demiurge remarks that that's terrible, that's not right. But Kensey says that that's life, unfortunately. Maybe if they work real hard they can get high up and not have to work another day in their life. Either way, they should continue on work. He offers Demiurge another chance to walk with him, and Dandy walks off with those wrapped up clothes. They separate and walk around town. 
----
As they do, they notice the stretch of street they're in is pretty quiet. Demiurge also notices some of the dirty guys in bodysuits are racing into the doors of nearby buildings. Demiurge starts to ask the rat what's up, but he's already vanished. Then, he finally notices the pounding of metallic feet. One of those mechs from a higher floor steps in around a corner, scanning across with its security eye. It seems to focus on Demiurge a brief bit, but turns away and continues walking. 

Kensey leans around a corner, telling Demiurge he needs to really be careful. Demiurge asks what's happening, to which the rat says that it may be dog eat dog down here, but everyone knows to be careful when any of Solumn's servants are spotted. People around here leave guys beaten and bruised, but those guys are more than happy to get rid of bad seeds, and as far as anyone seems concerned, anyone down here's a bad seed unless the guards or machines judge otherwise. Their personal service will only get them in trouble in this part of the floor, they have to get elsewhere.

They then begin walking away, forced to get out of the general area. But as they do, a loud alarm is heard as those stamping get faster, somewhere else on the floor. Kensey says that the guards are focusing on some poor sod, now's their chance to run! The rat runs, though as they do, Demiurge notices monitors lower from the ceiling, monitors the size of houses. Said monitors flare to life, and it appears to be from the perspective of one of those mechs. 

The mech's holding some bull man in one hand, him wearing a bodysuit with blood over the chest, though it's clearly not his. Two other guards, dressed in that similar thick plating, approach. One says in a filtered voice that this man's here on suspicion of murder and theft. The bull swears he hasn't done anything, though the guard drags a finger through the blood on his chest, holding it in front of him accusingly. He says that the evidence is as plain as the nose on his face. Then, one of the chains suspended from the arms overhead lowers, and attached to it is what looks like an octagonal container. The bottom opens up and the mech lifts the dull into the opening, which quickly closes and seals the bull in.

The chain lifts high up, before swiftly moving towards one of the outer walls, Demiurge is able to watch it zip towards the wall, even without the monitor. With that, the feed shuts off, and the monitors retreat into the ceiling. Demiurge is worried at what he's seen, and realizes he's been distracted. He runs in the direction Kensey last ran, soon finding him a fair distance away from where they were running.

Demiurge asks him what that was. Kensey asks if he's really been sleeping through this stuff, or if there's just no crimes higher up in the floors. He tells Demiurge that ''that'' was an execution. Demiurge repeats the word in worry, clearly uncertain of the exact prospect. Kensey says that they find someone suspicious looking, makes sure people see offenders getting caught, and then locks them up in one of those cages. And then, those cages are sent outside.

He points towards the nearest large window, there being a set of stairs leading up to what looks like a viewing platform to the outside. He says that the cages are sealed shut and zipped through the insides, before being hung outside. There, the walls open up and let the toxic air in. They're choked out, die, and then the cages drops them to the ground below. Demiurge is horrified, and asks why there's even a platform to look up at it. Kensey shrugs unsure. Maybe they want them able to see bad guys suffer, maybe it's some sort of reminder to behave, maybe the people on this floor take some pleasure out of it. It's rare, but sometimes people can see some of the Higher Floor people descend from the sky, and sometimes that lifts his spirits.

Either way, they're wasting a lot of time. Those Solumn guys are grouped up about now, which means they have time to perform their business. If there was ever a time to act, now's it while they can't capture either of them. 
----
The duo work for a while, looking for anybody scared to go around. Unfortunately, they find very few takers. Apparently many are worried about getting anywhere after the recent execution, and so they have to make by with whatever little scraps they can gather. Kensey says that he's used to not having a lot of money, but today was exceptionally bad, he apologizes for the weak introduction. Demiurge says that it's alright, they'll just get more later, right?

Kensey shrugs and supposes they'd better be prepared for the next haul. Anyways, they'll be heading back, maybe Dandy got something. So they head back to the alley, and find Dandy waiting there, him resting on his backside. He waves the guys over, and they muse briefly about what they gathered. It seems the tiger was slightly more successful than the duo. Kensey supposes that things will get better tomorrow, certainly. For now, they should rest.

Demiurge asks what came of the scrap metal, and Dandy says that they kind of took it all. They declared the stuff their property anyways, and took it without offering any compensation. Kensey gives a deep sigh and confirms what he says. That's why they need to get lucky with their work.

;Octuar 25th - Octuar 28th

With this, the players go through a few days. Kensey leads Demiurge through the streets, and is forced to retreat to hiding as they notice more guards in that silvery plating patrol the area. They move more and more, though Kensey remarks that Solumn's Guards are far more alert than usual. And unfortunately, it cuts into their earnings. Each night, he looks over his earnings while Dandy looks towards him in worry. 

They work more and more, and unfortunately, they get very few earnings. On the 28th, he says that they'll probably have enough for 3 more days worth of breakfasts. Dandy, meanwhile, looks on worried. He furrows his brow, before reaching for his utility belt and handing it to him. The rat looks on curious, and the tiger says that it's sort of been a good luck charm. Maybe he'll find more with this. Kensey says that it's supposed to keep him safe, though the tiger assures that he knows to keep himself safe. 

Kensey's unsure, but if he really wishes... Either way, they sleep.

;Octuar 29th

On this day, they go through the usual process. Still there're guards galivanting around, and still people are worried about going anywhere, and still they're getting little business. Kensey furrows his brow before angrily kicking at a nearby wall in annoyance. What in blazes has these guys on edge anyways?! Demiurge thinks back to that time that machine looked at him, and inwardly wonders if this might be about him.

Either way, they gather whatever they can and begin to head back. They approach the alley they've been staying at as usual, and when they do, they notice Dandy's not quite here yet. They both look at each other in concern, Kensey saying that he's usually back by now. Demiurge asks if they should probably look. The rat says they don't have a lot of other options. So, heh heads out the other way of the alley, hoping he'll be nearby. 

They look around curious, when a short squirrel guy in one of those skinsuits approach. He asks if he's Kensey, and the rat answers he is. Some guy out here's asking for him, too weak to move. He asks the squirrel to take them to them, and so they move. They make it, and find the horrible sight of their tiger friend laying down next to a low-lit building, his back covered in deep wounds. He's wearing small underwear and nothing else, though that pales in comparison to how terrible he looks right now. Other than that, he has in one hand those papers he had before, and he has in the other a pair of bags, one for other clothes, and one full of money. 

Kensey is horrified and races forwards, reaching under him. He grunts and tries to lift him, though he's too tough. He demands Demiurge helps him, and the stunned Dragon is shaken to acting. He races forwards and takes the tiger up. Kensey says he knows someone that can probably help, they have to be fast though! And so, they run.
----
They make it to another set of alleys, this one being adjacent from a doctor's place. They're around the back, where a quetzal lady, her having green feathers and a red underbelly, though much of it's hidden by one of those bodysuits. She's also dressed in a white gown, and has the tiger on a bed around the back. She says that he's been hurt pretty badly... she's used whatever magic she can, but his body's still working through the trauma of what whoever did this to him did. 

Kensey thanks her, calling her '''Mont'''. She says she'll leave him be for now, and walks away. Kensey's clutching the bags Dandy was holding, and he looks on the tiger fuming as he's reading through the sheets of paper the guy was holding. Demiurge apologizes for him, and notices the big bag in his hand. It looks really heavy. He wonders what he's done to get that much money. Kensey rolls his eyes and asks if he's really that dense by now. Dandy's a Man of the Night. There are very few people on this floor able to get good clothes, and even fewer that're able to look good, but he comes from a higher floor, so he descended unto this one like a shiny treasure piece. Everyone wanted a piece of him, and he had to teach him to defend himself... And even then, on the rare occasion, the moron'll get himself almost killed!

He told him to remove some of these services, but that moron insists that he should keep some of this stuff just in case. Demiurge asks if those cuts were seriously part of the services, and Kensey says that there's that and far, far worse. The more it'll hurt him, the more it'll cost. He's holding a lot of pain right now... That moron even stuck him with his self defense. 

Demiurge says they need to do something about all of this. The money they're getting isn't enough, the shops cost too much for necessary goods, the floor itself is working to bound them all down, and they might all die if those guards pop up. The rat grits his teeth and punches the wall nearby, angrily asking Demiurge if he thinks he doesn't know that?! He's lived it all his life! Dandy's been the only light in his life, and that guy keeps on putting his neck on the line! As if this'll make him a difference! As if he's not going to live and die here whether he gets that money or not!

He'd love to march right up to Solumn and give her a piece of his mind, but no matter what he does, no matter how strong he gets, no matter what weaponry he gets, those guards will always be stronger than him and Dandy. They have all the cards, and he's just a rat living out of pure spite. Hearing all of that, Demiurge gives pause and takes a few steps back, overwhelmed. He feels despondent himself and rubs his shoulder.

After a few moments to try and calm, Mont comes out. She apologizes and says she couldn't help but overhear. She was actually originally on one of the upper floors, and she remembers someone up there that might be the kind of guy he's looking for. Kensey raises a brow and asks what she means. She says she's used to be on the Arachnid Floor, and there there was someone that was trying to rouse up some form of resistance. She managed to get quite a few supporters, though she's recently suffered a hit to her rapport. Still, she has some supporters.

Demiurge says she sounds like she could be helpful. She says they should at least check her out, and Kensey asks how they can. Mont says she still makes enough for a pass up there, she thinks she can bring them up on the lift. She just needs to make some final adjustments to some patients' tables, and she can bring them over tomorrow. The rat gives pause and takes a deep breath. He says that they should probably see her, just in case. Mont nods and tells them to meet her back here tomorrow, she'll keep Dandy safe.

Kensey sighs and quietly thanks her. So, he turns and begins to head out, Demiruge following. He asks the Dragon if he can keep it a secret, him revealing Dandy's occupation. He's kind of self conscious about it. Demiurge assures he can. Kensey thanks him, and they walk.

;Octuar 30th

On this day, Demiurge and Kensey go back to the hospital area, where the doctor from before steps out, her with a razor-like straight sword at her hip as she stepped forwards. Kensey asked if that's something you get on the upper floors, to which she replies that this was something on the black market up there. Apparently someone took a guard's weapon and remolded it to make it appear different enough. The guards' swords are able to fold, though this one's straight and rigid. Either way, Mont says she got what she needs, so they oughta get going. 

They move to one of the lifts, where the bird takes out a card with the symbol of a spider on it. She steps in and slots the card into a reader at the edge of the lift, and it begins to lift. As it does, Kensey and Demiurge looks back, spotting a pair of fairly large people, a polar bear and a lion, had gotten on behind them. The rat shudders and tells the other two to look lively. Demiurge and Mont turn, and see the group.

Kensey says that these two happened to be repeat punching bags on his jobs, though never at the same time. The lion says that this jerk's been a real pain in his side, the polar bear affirming. The polar bear tells the other two to look away if they want to. They don't get any beef with them, and they can just hide out on the other floor. Kensey brings out his pipe wearily, and Mont draws her own sword. Mont seems surprised, though she assures that that man is kind of part of her business. The polar bear says that if she wishes, then they can beat the lot of them.

With this, the trio are forced to fight the '''Burly Duo'''. Either foe relies on physical prowess. They tend to focus on damage on the trio, which is ok, because Mont's good at healing. She also seems to have Lonna's ability to nullify damage for an ally, Nonia's ability to give allies a buff that frequently heals them, and buffs to increase party members' speed to make their turns come around faster. With the trio's efforts, they're able to overwhelm the duo, who collapse. Kensey says this'll look really bad on the upper floor if they arrive like this. Mont says that they should probably run when the lift stops.

The lift comes to a stop, and thus the three race away, leaving the polar bear and lion behind. They make it deeper into the '''Arachnid Floor''', a floor that's slightly cleaner than the floor before. It has a lot more buildings that're more than one floor tall, and they can see more guards and mechs on the floor. Kensey says that despite how nice the floor looks, he feels a little less safe here. Mont says that there're less criminal acts on this floor, though some attention might be given to this floor thanks to that resistance chick.
----
The group goes around the floor, taking care around the guards and the mechs. They move and move careful, soon arriving at one of those multi-floor buildings out in the middle of the floor. Demiurge asks if Mont's sure that she's here, and the quetzal says that this was where she's lived back when she had a spot up here. Demiurge looks over the building, and he notices that there are latches and what look like handholds around the various rooms, making it seem as if parts of the building can be opened up. Mont says that if she's not here, then maybe they can ask someone here where she's gone.

Demiurge himself is unable to enter, and players get to control Mont or Kensey as they walk through this building. Mont says she should be on the third floor, and the rat asks if she's her biggest fan or something. Mont assures otherwise, saying that back in the day, she was publicly discredited thanks to Solumn. She brings up the "Kinder Gardening" that occurs frequently, and says that she was subjected to one of those. Her child was brought back, thankfully, though the incident left a stain on her. Kensey shudders, thanking god he hasn't had a child.

The duo goes through the apartment and up to the third floor. They go through the hall before eventually arriving at one door. There, Mont says that this should be where she is. Kensey motions for her to go ahead, and so, the quetzal knocks the door. They back away, and the door opens up, revealing a mantis lady in one of those bodysuits, her being almost as tall as the ceiling. She sees the duo, and asks who the heck they are. Kensey seems stunned, though Mont speaks up, saying that this rat guy here wanted to talk to her.

She turns to him, and the rat seems startled. He explains that this Mont lady here said that she had plotted out a resistance group against Solumn, and as he says that, she turns and heads into her apartment. The duo follow after while she steps into the room, it having a small bed, a separate bathroom, and one of those security monitors, now at a smaller side, embedded in the wall. She says that if he's here for that, he's too late. The Eminence leader saw to the destruction of her resistance. Kensey rose a brow and looked around in concern, him saying he doesn't see any child. The mantis says that after the incident, the little girl couldn't look at her, so she's allowed her someone else to take care of her.

Kensey and Mont both feel uncomfortable, though the quetzal walks over to a nearby window. She opens it up and looks down, waving for someone below. The mantis is confused at her motion, when suddenly, Demiurge lifts his head up to look in. He sees the lady and asks if this is the resistance guy. The mantis rolls her eyes and says that it's not gonna work. Solumn's goons already made her look awful. Demiurge says that Mont seemed to have a high opinion of her, and Kensey here seems interested. The mantis then asks if they even know what she's done. Demiurge wearily answers no.

The mantis reaches under the mattress of her bed and takes out a remote, this one having letters on it and a bar that indicates where the typed letters go. She types something and points it at the monitor on the wall, and it flares up. It shows one of those pov shots of one of the mechs going through the streets, approaching the building they're currently at. Demiurge briefly peers back to see if someone's approaching, though the mantis assures it's just a recording. She says that she was able to work in secret and make those that work with her act without making it cleaer they intended to topple her. But that ferret looked for one thing to pin on her.

The recording shows the mech approaching the building, raising up to the third floor. It grabs the handle at the wall adjacent from the room they're in, before pulling it, opening up the wall like a door, revealing the mantis and a smaller bug lady. The mech speaks in Solumn's voice, declaring that the lady inside, '''D'mere''', has been accused of failing to fulfil payments to the government body. The mantis inside swears that she will, that she'll do everything she can to get the money. There's a pause, when the machine reaches forwards and grabs the child, her screaming. D'mere reaches for her, crying out "'''Molly'''" in fear.

The mech says that if she can't keep on paying, then this child will serve as interest. D'mere swears that she'll sell whatever, that she'll take a loan, she begs her to return her. The mech stops and says that she's had her chance, and if she really wishes to do anything, then she can join her. D'mere seems to tense up and stumble back, muttering that she doesn't want to die. That seems to seal her fate, and so the mech pulls away and closes the side of the room, before walking off, the child screaming.

D'mere then turns off the monitor, Kensey and Demiurge horrified. D'mere says that Molly was sent out for execution, but there seemed to be a failure in the unlocking mechanism, so she was brought back. But by then, she was scared and alone and already saw her as a lesser person. Her allies suffered similar fates under the Kinder Gardening. Either they were too scared to go with their child, or they went with. Those that went with never returned, and those that were scared were left with a child that hated them and people that gave them sour looks. They couldn't face execution legally, but she made sure they'd suffer for their resistance, and now they have to live with the consequences. 

Kensey glowers and kicks the nearby wall angrily, saying that they went up here for nothing. Demiurge, meanwhile, gives pause, before speaking up. He can say "You're letting her win" or "You can't give up now". D'mere looks towards him curious. He explains that this was clearly a targeted move if it happened the way she described it. That must mean that Solumn saw them as a threat! If they give up now, they're just showing that she won. They need to dismantle the pillars of her rule and give everyone in this tower the chance for a better life.

D'mere gives pause at that reaction, before taking a deep breath, and sighing. She looks around the room she's at, before huffing. She says that it's not exactly like she has a lot left to lose... She gets up and says that she'll see what she can do. She offers the party to go home for a while and come back tomorrow. In the meantime, she'll try to see what connections she can get, and then they can see what they can do about starting to take care of Solumn. Kensey perks up at that, and Mont claps her hands together excitedly. She says she knew there was some spark in that body yet! D'mere nods dismissively and tells them to keep hush about this stuff. They need any advantage they can get before they take this fight to the system. Any mistake could mean death for any of them.

;Octuar 31st

On this day, the group joins up and takes the lift again, Kensey checking to make sure no odd guys follow them up. The lift goes up and soon makes it to the appropriate floor, where they step off and head to the apartment. They rush and rush, and find D'mere waiting there. She's at her door and sees the trio, and tells them that after the hit they took, it'll take a lot of work to build the resistance back up.

She steps into the room and searches around, soon finding what she's looking for in a hollow compartment under the carpeting. She pulls it up, revealing a strange looking weapon. It appears to be a technological axe, hosting a long shaft with an edge at the top of it that appears to be thicker than D'mere's torso. Said edge also has various segments in it with machinery visible through the cracks. Mont looks on in surprise, saying that that's a weapon from a high ranking guard! D'mere remarks that she knows, and fiddles with the shaft a little, at which the segments in the edge whir to life before altering the shape of the edge such that it appears like the blade of a scythe. She fiddles the shaft again to turn it back to its axe form, and puts the weapon on her back.

Mont remarks that being spotted with that would surely be grounds for execution, at which D'mere says that they must be careful. For now, she's begun networking with resistance members. She was able to find a few friends, but only two of them seemed willing to join alongside her. They're trying to reach out to their own allies, and in the meantime, they need to get prepared for whatever. That's why for their first mission, they need to gear up.

Kensey asks if she means what he thinks she means, and she nods. If they're going to prepare their resistance, they need the gear and weaponry. Before they were dismantled, her allies had stocked some weaponry up at a building nearby, and attempted to gather money for a trip for each floor. Mont asks what she intends to do, to which she explains that part of the process means to get rid of their influence. And that'll mean driving the guards and mechs off of the floors. If they're going to get Solumn, they need to make sure she can't escape to the lower floors.

Anyways, they need to get to work. They hid their weaponry in a local scrap building one of their allies ran, but she was, unfortunately, executed. It's under ownership of someone else, but hopefully they haven't gotten everything out of there yet. With that, Kensey supposes they have a mission. Mont says that this could very well be their chance to make a difference. And then, Demiurge can say "Let's make a difference" or "We're giving everyone hope". 

With that, the mission is started. Players must investigate the appropriate shop and get the weaponry from there before it gets snatched away.

;Octuar 31st - Novi 14th

With this, players are tasked with progressing around the floor and towards the appropriate destination. Said destination is towards the southeast corner of the floor. It's a storehouse with a stall out front that someone would exchange money for goods with. This is the '''Scrap Store''', D'mere explains that a few people on this floor gather lost pieces of metal and place them here to be collected by the guards. They should be careful, there could be many foes within this area.

With that, the group must work their way around the building, getting towards the back, where there's a mech-sized door. Demiurge reaches for it and lifts it slightly, the party peering in to make sure. Kensey says that it looks clear, so they slip in, Demiurge following suit. Inside, there are numerous shelves with scraps of metal stacked on various industrious shelves, them reaching high to the ceiling. Numerous staircases can be seen to go up to higher floors to get at a different portion of the shelves to gather scrap. The floors have gaps in them that the mechs appear to be able to go up through in order to gather stuff. Additionally, what looks like a partially deconstructed mech is in the middle of the bottom floor.

D'mere says that if they're going to find anything, they need to go to certain shelves, the stuff should be there. For now, they need to be careful, only for the door they went in to snap shut, startling the three. Demiurge appears to've dropped the door, and looks back sheepishly. D'mere declares that they need to get moving, so they rush to one of the sides. In the process, they end up bumping into a few of the workers, guys with welding irons and with motorized saws. They see the group, and hold their gear threateningly while the party draws their own weaponry, Kensey saying they need to act fast. 

The group's forced to battle the '''Scrap Guards'''. In the process, players learn about D'mere's overall playstyle. She has the unique ability to swap her damage type between Smash and Slash, a 0 cost skill allowing her to swap between the axe form and the scythe form while the physical skills are unique to her, them changing their damage type depending on the current form of her weapon. In addition to that, she wields various self buffs and electric magic. She's all around very focused on damage. With her and the rest of the party's help, players are able to down the Scrap Guards, just in time for the other guards to see no one at the rear door. They start to go back to their posts, and D'mere says they need to be careful. They have several spots to investigate for the equipment.

They must navigate the various stairs and around the various walkways. They progress around the shelves and must look into each of them, gathering more and more hidden equipment. Explosives, arms, armor, so on. In one portion, D'mere draws some small boxes with antennae, speakers, dials, and buttons. Demiurge wonders what those are, and Kensey admits he himself doesn't recognize them. D'mere says these are handheld radios. Solumn's people wield these and are able to communicate with each other from far distances, that kind of tech will be invaluable to their group.

Either way, the group's eventually able to get the last piece of equipment. And when they do, one particularly puny-looking worker, a beetle guy, notices them. Seeing them, he rushes to the floor in terror. Mont says they have to stop him, and with that, they're forced to race down to the bottom of the Store. Once down there, they see the beetle guy race towards that partially deconstructed mech, shoving into it and fiddling with the controls. Kensey gets worried, and much to everyone's worry, the machine whirs to life. 

The mech has no legs, though it's able to utilize the arms it still has to drag itself towards the group, before parking on its base to keep it in place. It raises its machine arms threateningly, and D'mere declares that they have no choice. These things are really tough, but with it partially scrapped, they might have a chance! With that, players are forced to battle the '''Scrapped Mech'''. Said mech is a bit of a damage sponge. It Resists all physical damage while it's able to deal Smash damage to a single target, Smash to all, and deal Fire and Lightning damage. It's a bit of a war of attrition. This foe can't heal itself, but its frame makes it hard to damage with non-magic attacks, while players should make good use of their healer. Either way, with enough work, the Scrapped Mech will take too much damage, and begin to collapse. There's specific attention paid to how the frame, the area the beetle guy entered to control the mech, crushes together. The mech slumps over and falls apart.

The party's panting and panting, feeling a little overwhelmed. Kensey says that even in pieces that mech was tough. D'mere says they'll have to deal with more later. For now, though, they got what they needed. It's time to return.
----
With that, players return to D'mere's apartment, her inside and removing the carpeting to find hiding spots. She explains that she'll work on distributing this gear. Mont asks what they should do in the meantime, to which she replies that once the pieces are in place, she'll ask everyone to gather so they can work on the next part. Once they meet, they can discuss further issues and prepare means of circumventing them.

The group nods, and then they start to split, though before they do, D'mere hands Demiurge one of the radios they collected. She tells him to keep this safe, and not to let anyone see him with it. Demiurge swears he will, and so they begin to head out. Once out, Kensey supposes all they can do is wait... Mont supposes they can train a little in preparation, and Kensey says that he's going to keep an eye on Dandy. Mont says he should be up soon, and Kensey remarks that that's good... Maybe he can give him some good news finally.

;Novi 15th

On this day, Demiurge and Kensey meets up at Mont's medical store, and find Dandy's bed empty. The two look around, Kensey in worry. Mont then comes out, and next to her is the tiger. Seeing him, the rat rushes up to him and hugs him, Mont saying that her magic was able to tie up the wounds early on, and it seems his body's been able to work off his trauma. Dandy apologizes for being away for so long, he underestimated how much he could withstand for his work. Kensey calls the tiger a big dummy and says that he's worried enough without hearing him blame himself.

He says that he'll have to settle down and stay calm before he ever gets out on the field. He and the upper floor guy are going to keep on working. However, Dandy speaks up, and admits that Mont's talked to him a little a bit about what their group's been doing. Kensey's surprised at this, and Dandy says that he wanted to keep working with him. He got all messed up because he cares for him, and he'll continue to care. Kensey starts to speak up, though Dandy leans in, whispering that it doesn't hurt that he could get out of his "business" if they can wear down Solumn's rule. Hearing that, Kensey says that he's on board.

With that, he pulls out the knife Dandy'd given before, and hands it off to the tiger. Dandy grabs it, and with that, he says they'll prepare for anything. As they do, Demiurge's radio crackles to life. Demiurge lifts it and hears D'mere saying that she's managed to organize a few guys. She says they'll host a meeting up here in a short while, so in the meantime, he says that the group should make whatever preparations they need and gather whatever information they need. They need to be ready to subvert whatever advantage the foes have, asap.

Demiurge speaks into it, though she doesn't respond. He tries to speak again, though Mont holds the radio herself, pressing the button and speaking, answering that they copy. D'mere responds, thanking for the update. She wishes to see them at Novi 21st. Mont says they shall, and they click off. With that, Mont supposes they should garner whatever information and buildup any skills they can until that day. Everyone nods in response.
===Medium===
With the news, Kensey supposes that they should probably finalize whatever problems they can on this floor/ If they're suffering them, odds are someone else is. Dandy asks if they could do something about the guards, though Kensey says that taking care of those guys will likely be an end goal. They need something else, maybe to build some rapport with the common people. As they speak, Demiurge speaks up, recalling the shops. At that, Kensey remarks that he's right. Everything'd moved on too fast for them to really focus on, but the food shop Demiurge went to cost more on this floor than on another. And considering the reasoning he gave, maybe the other shops are in a similar state.

With that, they now have a mission. Demiurge goes to the various shops and investigates their prices. In the meantime, Kensey himself will double check on the food prices. With that, the party nods, before heading off. To the clothing shop and to the self defense shop. He goes to either, and finds two different animals running each. An expressive peacock man in the clothing store named '''Percy''', and a grizzled lizard lady in the weapon's shop named '''Goona'''. He looks over either shop, and like before, they're five times as expensive, and these guys assure they need to pay off guys above floors. 

Mont and Dandy say that this seems like something to work on. Dandy himself says he noticed that the prices were a little steeper down here, but he was only a couple floors up, he never realized the stuff down here was five times as expensive as up. Demiurge asks how much stuff costs up there, and Dandy says he didn't pay much attention to the prices up there, though it cost him a fair amount. The money he provides tells Demiurge it seem to be 4-5 times as expensive, not as expensive as down here but still a significant difference. Mont says that much of these tools are very important, so it's not like people can just ''not'' buy them, so that leaves them stranded in poverty likely. Dandy then says they should probably bring this up with D'mere early on so she can check and make sure the circumstances are similar on other floors as well. 

Dandy suggests they should check out other shops. Entertainment, health supplies, other things Demiurge might not've paid attention to on the floor he was on originally. Maybe if they can check out the various shops they can see what else they're being robbed of, and maybe see if they can prepare for that stuff. Demiurge says that sounds like a good idea, so they spend the day searching other shops on this floor.
----
The late hours soon come, and Mont suggests they can wait over at her own shop if they want. She'd hate them to stay on the streets when they could get shanked. Dandy says that that sounds nice, and then he offers to hang out at the usual place to lead Kensey over. Mont says that that sounds good, and thus they begin to walk off. Demiurge and Mont arrive there, and they're soon joined by Kensey and Dandy. Mont says she took note of the various prices and had notified D'mere, that mantis said it sounded worth looking into. Kensey says that if they can get cheaper stuff down here, they could worry about their money a lot less.

At that, Dandy thinks to speak up. They'd spend so much of the day looking and browsing, they never really got around to making money, did they? Kensey brings up that after he checked out Clance's shop, he thought to do some escort jobs. It was a little tricky, but he managed to get a fair enough. It won't be enough for a meal tomorrow, especially for all of them. Mont says that she could probably pay, though Dandy says that he'd hate to be a burden on her, especially after what she did for Dandy. Mont swears that it's nothing, though Dandy says he'd still like to earn his keep, so to say. Kensey says that he should be sitting still for a while.

Mont swears that it's nothing. Anyways, D'mere will probably investigate the shops on her floor, then report if there are issues, and they'll probably do some proper movement at the 21st. The party says that sounds good, and then rests.

;Novi 16th

On this day, the characters wake up to the usual tune. The group all rouses awake and meet up at the back of it. There, the doctor says that she'll have to wait on any updates on D'mere. The mantis said she'd have her allies work on it too, so maybe they'll be fast. Otherwise, it's a matter of waiting. Kensey then speaks up, saying that that probably means they'll have time to get some pocket change. Mont assures that they don't have to, though Dandy insists. Kensey then says that Dandy should stay put, he won't have to do anything.

Kensey then heads out, Demiurge coming with. Mont, meanwhile, stays back to keep an eye on the tiger. With that, they split. Demiurge and Kensey soon return, though on their way back, Mont intercepts them. She says that she took her eyes off him for a moment to check on other patients, but she returned, and he's gone! The duo's worried, and Kensey declares they need to find him. The rat says they need to split up and search, and so they fan out around the doctor's station.

Demiurge's searching down one street, and hears some threatening noises. Demiurge raises a brow and approaches the alley, peeking around the edge to find Dandy underdressed, wearing only overalls. There are also three shady looking guys around him. One's a tall crow lady, one's a shorter wolf guy, and another's a shorter cat guy. The wolf exclaims that Dandy's being unreasonable, his prices are way too high. Dandy swears they're very reasonable, he's offering a lot for one of a kind pleasure. The crow declares that any old toy or even a hand could do what he does, he has some nerve making demands like this.

Dandy looks among the lot of them, trying to stammer out some sort of response. But he sighs and says he can probably lower his prices. The cat says he better throw in a good show on the house, cause he's really been killing the mood! Dandy looks downtrodden, but before he can do anything, Demiurge steps in, saying that the three of them have some nerve. Dandy seems surprised at the Dragon's appearance, and bashful. The wolf says this is between customer and seller, if he wants something then get in line. Demiurge says that this is his friend, and he won't let them talk down to him like this. 

The crow says that she's getting real sick of this. How about they get rid of this reptile and work out their frustration on that tiger, that may be a good use of their money. Seeing Demiurge threatened, Dandy reaches into his pocket and pulls out his knife, saying that after everything, he doesn't care to serve them anymore! With that, a battle starts with the '''Demanding Patrons'''. This is a little troublesome with it being just two in the good guy party. Thankfully, Dandy himself is fairly tanky, able to deal Stabbing damage with normal attacks and having a few Smash skills. Additionally, he has Charm skills that'll trick some of the enemies to act in ways that benefit the good guys. With Dandy's skills combined with Demiurge, the trio are overwhelmed, the cat declaring that this is way too much trouble to just waste money. The three retreat.

Dandy pants and pockets his knife. He says that he's sorry Demiurge had to see that side of his work. Demiurge can say "I... already knew..." or "I don't mind at all". To the former, Dandy's still bashful, though is happy that Demiurge considered him friend even after getting exposed like that. To the latter, Dandy sighs and thanks him for that. Either way, he says that he thought he might've been ready for this, but clearly he's just going to be walked over for the foreseeable future. He asks the Dragon if he can walk with him back home.
----
The two arrive back home, and Kensey and Mont soon arrives at the location, finding the tiger and Demiurge. They're both relieved and rush forwards, Kensey embracing Dandy. Kensey asks where he's gone, and that he can't just go off without letting anyone know. Dandy admits he was trying to get money, and Mont declares that's not necessary. She's just happy that he's ok. Kensey declares that he's seriously dumb, all while he buries his face into his chest.

At here, Dandy takes a deep breath. He says that he's felt it very necessary to work his job for those around him. Back when he was wrong, he'd hoped that the guards would be able to return his things to him, but he didn't receive any compensation, and eventually ran out to tend to himself with. Since then, he figured he really needed to put himself on the market, and back when he arrived at this floor, his... profession... seemed the most ludicrous. Despite what'd just happened, he thought to continue his services, he just thought that he could get away with limiting the options. But, clearly the truth is that there aren't a lot of people down here that'll respect him, including himself.

So, he's going to step away from that job. He'll be doing everything with the group now. Kensey thanks him for finally seeing reason, and Mont says that what they're doing is still dangerous. If he ever wants to, he can hide away at this building. However, Dandy says that whatever happens up there can't be worse than what happened in his line of work. With that, Mont says that she looks forwards to his work. For now, though, it's getting a little late, so they should eat.

With that, they take Kensey's earnings to buy some food, eat, and then rest.

;Novi 17th - Novi 20th

During this period, players are allowed some free time. They'll encounter a sparse few sidequests, be able to boost bonds, or be able to grind up on exp by traveling the more dangerous alleys and getting in fights with bad guys in there. Players are meant to prepare for whatever, for the 21st will arrive soon, and there's no telling what'll happen there. 

;Novi 21st

On this day, the group must go up to the Arachnid Floor from before, once again passing the '''Dung Beetle Floor''' and the '''Ant Floor'''. As they pass, Dandy remarks that he used to be on the Ant Floor there. Kensey asks how it was, and Dandy answers that it wasn't too remarkable. Still had a fair amount of crime on it, there were a few men and women of the night there... He does remark that there hasn't been as many criminals or as expensive items as there were on the Cockroach Floor. Either way, they go more and more, soon arriving at the Arachnid Floor.

They go through the streets and arrive at the apartment from before, and get to her floor. Once there, they see that she's with a couple of guys: a bobcat man with gray fur, a swan man with pure white feathers, and a short chinchilla lady with gray fur. D'mere says that these are but a few representatives she got in contact with, and each of them have been at work gathering allies. The swan asks if they really have to work with that '''Andas''' jerk, motioning towards the bobcat. Andas says that he's got as much a vendetta against that maniac as anyone in this room, though the swan says that they haven't given up their child over and over! D'mere is quick to wave them down, saying that this kind of disparity is exactly what Solumn wants among them. 

The swan glowers and sits back, the chinchilla glaring at the bobcat. D'mere says that that wasn't a good introduction... She decides to introduce the people here. The bobcat is Andas, and is a resident of this floor. The swan's '''Goe''' and comes from the Dung Beetle Floor, and the chinchilla is '''Lon''', and comes from the Ant Floor. They each nod in response to their intro. Goe says he's a seller of self defense items and has tried weaving words of the resistance to people he thinks are helpful, and he's been in the process of examining the gear and screening people. Lon says she's a food seller and that she's been trying to cut down on costs for her food, though that's ended up making it hard to maintain her shop. Andas says he's been purely a follower of D'mere, and doesn't have any positive reputation to keep up.

The party's confused over that bobcat, though the other ones seem useful. Kensey pulls the others aside to the corner Demiurge's leaning into. Kensey asks if they're seriously gonna work with that guy. Demiurge asks what his business is, and Mont speaks up. Among the Kinder Gardening, Andas was a victim. But he must've come to some terrible conclusion whenever others' children returned, because he kept acting up and his son kept on getting pulled away, until one day he never returned. Kensey remarks that as if that weren't bad enough, he got smugger and smugger whenever his kid was taken, clearly figuring he was winning or something. Demiurge himself shudders at that.

Demiurge can then say "We should probably give it a chance" or "We don't have a lot of options". The group gives pause, though agrees. They each turned, and Mont assures that she's thankful they're together. She then says that she hopes D'mere was able to investigate their issue, to which the mantis assures they have. Sure enough, they have many sources of price disparity between floors. The lower the floor, the more costly, which she's sure is meant to keep the people of the Eminence pinned towards the bottom.

So, if they're to do anything about that, then they need to find a way to bring the necessary material from the higher floors to the lower ones so that they can produce the items necessary. Lon points out that that's easier said than done: Demiurge found the cheapest stuff way up on the Monarch Floor. That's almost right below the military floors, and it'd require a ton of money to get a pass up there. D'mere holds her chin and ponders, remarking that this is a predicament. Demiurge peers back at himself, looking at his wings. He says that he might have an idea...
----
At this, the group of D'mere, Kensey, Dandy, and Mont are at one of the lifts. D'mere speaks into her radio, asking Goe if he's working. The swan is down on the Dung Beetle Floor, and he answers he's placed the request for a lift up to the Arachnid Floor. With that, the group waits, and D'mere speaks. She says that some flying types have tried what Demiurge have tried, and they usually managed to get away with it, unless guards happened to ask them the right questions. Besides, it wasn't llike they could remain on there permanently, they'd have to pay for housing. That being said, Demiurge himself might be a bit more noticable, so when they go up, they'll have to be careful. 

As they wait around, that bobcat from before lingers near, having a chain in his hands. He wanders to the group, and remarks that he doesn't exactly have much to do right now. Kensey says he can sleep the day away for all they care, they have a mission. Andas says that that's not fair, he has a stake in this too. Those maniacs are holding onto his child, and he's going to get him back. The party's surprised at this assertion, and Kensey asks if he's certain of this. Andas swears that they've kept him alive before, so there's no reason he shouldn't be now. The group ponders for a moment, clearly uncomfortable with working with this guy. But, they sigh.

D'mere says he should be careful if he's going to join along, and with that, Andas joins the party. And as they wrap up the conversation, Dandy pipes up, pointing out that the lift's coming down. It comes down and races past the current floor, and D'mere says it's time to move! With that, each party member jumps onto the Dragon's back, and he spreads his wings. He lifts them overhead, before swinging them downwards with enough force to launch him from the ground. He flaps more and more, racing towards the opening in the ceiling and racing up through the entry! Each party member clings tightly, each clearly terrified. They cling tighter and tighter, and Demiurge goes up and up and up.
----
Up and up they go, the Dragon pumping his wings as much as he can. They pass multiple floors, and it feels as if Demiurge goes for half a day. Eventually, he makes it to the upper floors, up to the Monarch Floor. There he steps out and onto the ground, panting and resting his wings. The party members each climb off, and D'mere declares that they have to move fast. They can't let anyone see they were here. With that, they rush off, Demiurge still worried.

Many of the well dressed people on t his floor are confused at the going ons, several guards responding to some strange happenings and approaching, them followed by other guards. Among them, Demiurge looks over his shoulder and notices Tena from way back. He approaches the lift-area, and Demiurge notices he has a set of Solumn's cuffs around his wrists, and behind him is a building-sized mech with a head as big as a house, a round body, and a set of thick arms and legs. Demiurge just speeds along, and they soon reach hiding. 

They make it to the streets and rush into an alleyway, hiding there. Kensey says that if those guys saw anything, they'll probably be prosecuted. D'mere says he's right. She apologizes for having to do this, but she asks the Dragon to hide here. Demiurge says if it's necessary, he'll do it. With that, the party splits and gets to work searching. D'mere says that their job here is to look for the shops up here and find out where they're getting their supplies. With that, players take control of D'mere, and are now tasked with walking around the city, now without the Dragon.

Kensey remarks that, thankfully, those guards and machines seem preoccupied with the recent issue over at the lift area, so they should be safe for now. Either way, they scan around, soon finding this floor's food store, self defense store, and clothing store. At each, D'mere and Andas don't enter, leaving the remainder to look around and appear browsing while the other two scan around the building to see their things. They find that the food store seems to have its own small greenhouse that grows various items, and an adjacent building that stores various animals. The clothing store has a large adjacent building that has numerous tumbling devices in it that must be making the clothing. And adjacent from the self defense building appears to be some sort of tiny forge that constructs the devices.

The group reconvenes, and they relay the various things they'd seen. Kensey remarks that this is bull. How'd these guys even get these devices? Mont says that a lot of those things are very important, some very high class things. She ponders if that stuff was with the military at first? Dandy then asks why it would all be down here then? As they talk, though, Andas notices a strange penguin lady lingering near the building they've just investigated, looking at them curious. The bobcat approaches, the others curious and approaching. Seeing them approach, the penguin waves them closer and hides into the alley. The group approaches, and the penguin looks over them curious, asking if the mantis is really D'mere. She raises a brow and answers that she is.

The penguin introduces herself as '''Aun'''. She's a worker in the self defense store here, and she's become... aware of the way things are. Kensey asks if they can really trust her, and she swears she means no harm to them. She's heard about the various acts of violence through the grapevine and heard of how little the people of this floor thinks of those below. She had a penpal towards the bottom, and she got to hear about how rough it'd been. She sent some money and that person was trying desperately to get money to get some floors up, but her parents had informed her she was struck down in an alley. She thought about what she could've possibly done differently, and eventually came to realize not just the price issues, but also how wrong it was the way the people on this floor talked about those below.

Aun says that she wants to help the resistance. If nothing else, she at least wants to be able to halt this disparity. She says that the quetzal got the gist of it: a lot of this came from the guards up above. Seemingly randomly, Tena led the guards from building to building and provided various supplies, as well as provided another branch to the material transference lines so that this floor could send stuff down to other floors. She doesn't know why they did that, but the forge, the farm, the textiles, they're all from the guards. 

The party's curious, and Andas wonders if they could've done that to drive the wedge. Kensey asks what he means, and the bobcat tries to explain. These guys are able to live better than everyone, and they get the material others need. So it makes the ones below depend on those above, even diverting their attention from the leaders that should be providing them this stuff. Mont says that that is possible... She asks if this happened all at once, or one by one. Aun assures that it happened seemingly at once, to which Mont says that that probably means this was calculated. 

Either way, it sounds like if they're to do something about their situation on the lower floors, they need to somehow break into the floor above. Kensey says that Demiurge seemed pretty worn out from the previous flight, and Aun says she can help out. She has a pass for this floor, and they can ride with her up. Kensey says that'd be great! With that, they decide to head back to get Demiurge. However, when they get there, they see a pair of guards at the alley Demiurge is at, each wielding their weaponry. The group begins to grab their weapons, though Kensey takes pause.

He says that those are guards, they're always stronger than them. Mont says that they've yet to face them armored. They'll surely die... Andas growls and takes his chain. He whips it sideways, before rushing forwards, the rest of the party, sans D'mere, stunned. The bobcat rushes forwards before leaping up, and swinging, blindsiding the two guards with a whip attack. Kensey supposes that they're doing this now, and rushes forwards. 

With that, players are forced into a battle with the '''Solumn Guards''', and are able to learn a bit about Andas' powerset. He has skills that Enrage foes, forcing them to target him. He's also a bit of an evasive tank, having high chances of avoiding attacks. He also has multi-targeting physical strikes, wind skills, and skills that lower enemy accuracy and party evasion. With his skills, the party finds themselves able to avoid the guards, and beat them down. The cutscene continues, showing them shoving the guards into the alley, at which D'mere's quick to chop into each guards' neck and kill them. Demiurge is surprised and asks what's happening, to which D'mere says they'll explain on the way down. For now, they should hurry.
----
The group returns home, the penguin in tow. The group now has a slight idea about what they could do. Demiurge says they need to find a way to break into guard territory and find just what they're looking for. They need a lot of it in order to fix up the situation through the tower. Aun says that she can provide them access to the Monarch Floor so they have easier access to the guard floors. D'mere says that that would be appreciated. The penguin nods, and so the group has their mission now. Break into enemy lines, acquire supplies for constructing necessary goods, and distribute them throughout the floors.

;Novi 22nd - Demi 3rd

With this, the group's able to be sent up to the Monarch Floor, where they first must find out how they're going to get above here. Aun says that it could be risky, but maybe they could fly up there like before. But first, security's probably tighter on that floor than everywhere else... D'mere says that if they were able to divert enemy attention then they might have a way in, but that'd mean possibly sending others to death. The penguin says she can do something she figures, maybe draw attention without having to put others in danger. 

Aun moves while the rest of the party stands near a lift area. Then, they hear a commotion near one of the shops, the owner saying they were robbed! Guards begin moving, a few coming down from a lift overhead. And seeing the opening, the Dragon brings the party up and into enemy territory. They bypass it and find themselves in an area unlike any of the others on the floor. Instead of living-spaces and buildings, these floors appear to consist of various hallways, with branches off to other rooms. It's as if walking through a floor in an actual building, just extremely large. The player now traverses the '''Lower Guard Floors'''. 

Demiurge remarks that it feels a lot more like a factory here. D'mere suspects that this is where these guys develop a lot of their technology. If they're going to find what they need, then these floors will be it. Now it's a matter of finding and transferring. Everyone knows what they're after, so it's a matter of navigating. So now, players are required to go around the floor, being careful of the various foes within. They have a lot of guards to go through, as well as automatic security features they have to battle. Thankfully it seems like the mechs aren't to be seen around here.

They maneuver around, and as they progress, they soon make it to a hallway that leads towards the center of the floor, revealing the lift that Demiurge had originally taken from way up down here. And around here, the group notices various pockets in the walls the size of large garages. And in each garage is a bee-shaped mech larger than a van. D'mere says that she hasn't seen any of these things before... Kensey says that whatever these things are, they probably aren't good. They should smash them. D'mere says that they shouldn't raise any more alarm than they will. They have a mission to complete, so they do that, then they plan their next move.

They progress more through the Lower Guard Floors and through more enemies. They have a few destinations: the Weapon Lab, the Food Development, and the Clothing Workshop.
*Food Development - Here, players find a fairly remote room that seems to be designed to be isolated from the rest of the floor. It's designed like a large-scale green room, featuring artificial sunlight and moisture in the air, as well as tons upon tons of plantlife. And another section of the area features lots of ferals, with a barn in the corner that stores various baby ferals. There are also many guards around that are monitoring the ferals and the plants. Mont remarks that she can feel her stomach writhe looking at this, and Kensey says he's never imagined seeing this much food in his life. D'mere says they need seeds and those infant ferals. They transfer them, they can allow other floors to make food of their own. With that, the group's required to maneuver around the various guards to collect the necessary components and ferals still in cages.
*Clothing Workshop - The group makes it to the Clothin Workshop, and find many assembly lines with various guards at various points, overlooking what appears to be an automatic process. They see several fabrics and rubbers being maneuvered through the track and through various points to be wound into clothing. Dandy says that this  must be where they develop civilian uniforms and anything to "reward" their hard work. Andas looks on, and remarks that he'd been saving up on something real cool for little Nim. D'mere says that they need parts for the clothes-making process, and fabrics to feed to the machine. Now's their only chance. And so, players are tasked with maneuvering through the shop to gather the necessary equipment.
*Weapon Lab - The group makes it into the Weapon Lab, and finds a large forge that smelts various metals into weaponry of varying shapes and sizes. There's also a track that's building various mechs and those bee machines, and there are numerous guards around the area, looking over blueprints and making appropriate adjustments on consoles that seemed linked to the machine lines. Dandy pants and remarks that it's burning up in here, and Kensey remarks that it reeks in here too. D'mere says that this is what they're looking for, it's time to find the machinery they need, pack it up, and then get moving. With that, the group maneuvers around the location, soon finding material that would be used to make a forge, and lots of it too. As they do, among the mech desk, players can notice a set of blueprints showing off Solumn's mech. However, also on that blueprint is what looks like Demiurge's form and measurements.

The group's lugged their various equipment to a seemingly abandoned room, each panting after all that work. Kensey remarks that there's way too much stuff to take around. There's no way they can bring all of this junk down! Andas points out that they have to drag this thing through the halls to a lift, they have to hope they'd have permission to use the lifts from up here, and they'd look suspicious as hell with all of this junk anyways. Dandy then asks how they could bring this stuff down safely then? Demiurge himself ponders, and thinks back to those odd machines around that central lift. He ponders aloud if those things might be positioned around that lift for a purpose...

Players are first asked to confirm whether or not they want to proceed to those machines, because this decision could be dangerous. Upon confirming, the group drags their earnings through the hall and makes it to the central lift, where all of those bee machines are. D'mere goes up one of the ladders to one and checks it, before noticing that it needs one of those guard keys in it. With that, Andas is quick to rush out before returning with one. She takes it and turns it on, bringing the machine to life. She carefully maneuvers the controls, and finds that it flies. 

It takes great care, but the machine's able to go out through the side, before coming to touch down on the ground near the group. D'mere presses various buttons, causing tendrils to extend from the bottom of it and retract, causing the bulbous eyes out front to light up, causing an alarm to blare for a moment before silencing, and finally causing the abdomen to open up, revealing a ramp into the machine. The group's quick to shove their material inside, and so they shut it. D'mere lifts it, and the party grunts as the thing moves, surprised.

Kensey asks what they're doing with these things, to which Andas remarks they don't have a lot of room to wonder for now, they gotta get what they earned down and somewhere safe! They begin moving, though a few guards have entered, wondering out loud what that racket was. Then they notice the bee moving, and one of them demands they identify themselves. Mont begs D'mere to move faster, but the mantis says if they move, they'll just lead them down! They keep on demanding, though the party remains silent, maneuvering around the opening carefully. Realizing that they aren't responding, the guards grow suspicious, and assume a bee machine themselves. The thing stands off, and now, the group notices hatches around where those tendrils they saw pop out of the machine were before. Mont asks if she can hit that button again, and so the tendrils extend, the hatches opening up. Kensey says they can probably fight from these things, and D'mere presses another button, her saying that she thinks it's in a state of hovering now, meaning she can join. 

With that, players are now tasked with battling the '''Worker Bee'''. The fight is a strange one, as the Bee itself seems able to bring out guards enmasse while the Bee itself seems able to assault the party with gunfire, cosmic damage, and fire damage. The party requires a careful balancing act, with some required to be on support/healing, some required to wear down the number of guards on the field, and some required to damage the Bee itself, the machine having a relatively high amount of health and defenses. It's a fight requiring care on the player's part, but eventually they should be able to overwhelm it, and it flies into the side of the lift shaft, crashing and exploding.

With it downed, the party gets back into the machine, and flies down quickly. Several citizens see the oncoming machine and look on in confusion as it races past, going to lower and lower floors...
----
It eventually makes it down on the '''Beetle Floor''', a floor several floors above the Arachnid Floor. They touch down and take out the material they've gathered. With this, D'mere says they should split up and get moving fast. If they can move fast enough, they should find good hiding spaces for this equipment, and then should be able to group up later to set this stuff up for the other floors. She tells the group she's proud of them, and says this will be a major victory against the forces of Solumn.

With that, the mission appears to, for now, be a success.

;Demi 4th

With this, the group meets up, having hidden their earnings elsewhere before the team meets at the Arachnid Floor. There, they meet in an alley, all the resistance members and the penguin included. Goe says he can't believe, and Lon says that they dragged all of this down... D'mere brings up that they had to use a vehicle, and Lon asks where that vehicle is now. D'mere says they had to race away from the Bee, and apparently it'd been collected while they were running. 

Lon admits that it would've been useful, though it probably would've been only drawn attention to them. Either way, they've gathered their material, so now it's time to start moving. Goe says he'll gather reliable people and get them to transfer the material, and Lon says she'll do the same. D'mere says she'll do the same for her floor, Kensey, Dandy, and Mont for theirs. Aun, meanwhile, will be preparing herself. Demiurge asks what she's preparing for, to which she replies she feels she should help them out on the field. With that, the group breaks, heading to their hiding places. 

Demiurge's gone down with the three, where they gather the material. Kensey remarks that this is amazing. They're going to make things so much better for this floor. Dandy says that he can't wait to pay for less! Mont says that she feels like she's dreaming: all this work and she feels like she's about to see the fruit of their labor. Everything's gonna get fixed up, though Demiurge can say "There's plenty to do still" or "There's still Solumn to worry about". Either way, the happy times do lessen, though Mont says that they have plenty to work on. They managed to fix up one problem, and rush into enemy territory and come out alive. They'll fix things soon, and they'll surely overpower Solumn. 

For now, though, the team will fan out. They'll bring their material to each shop, to Clance, Percy, and Goona. They give a brief explanation to the material, and each seems uncertain, especially fearing that those guards might get suspicious. Though...
*Dandy tells Goona that this is necessary, that there are foes on this floor that won't care for one, and that they need them to keep safe.
*Kensey tells Clance that there are people suffering on this floor, that there are people here that'll only stay in poverty if they don't lower the food price.
*Mont says that now's his best chance at expression. If he keeps on relying on those guys upstairs, he's just using other people's dessigns.
Either way, they also assure that they'll be safe, and that they'll time this right to make sure the guards only realize they have the equipment until it's too late. Hearing that, the shop owners, think, before deciding that this is worth risking. With that, they each accept what the group's gathered, and begins setting up their things and preparing their things. 

With this, the group turns in, and decides they'll wait to see if they accept it...

;Demi 5th - Demi 9th

On this, players are able to do whatever they want for a while. The story won't progress until Demi 10th, but in the meantime, players can perform sidequests, grind up on experience, and gathering items.

;Demi 10th

On this day, the group checks out the shops. There, they find that the shops are a lot more crowded. Looking inside each, they can see that the prices have already dropped. The party can't help but jump in excitement, before they hear calls on the radio. Goe, Lon, and D'mere all report that their prics have dropped, and Mont replies that they dropped here too. Kensey excitedly hugs Dandy, telling him he's never been happier!
===Penultimate===
With this, the group is still quite happy. Mont reminds the group that they have to still be careful. This is only the start of change around here. Kensey says he knows, but after everything, he thinks they deserve to indulge a little. They're getting three square meals and they're getting money over it. For now, though, they should wait for D'mere to say something so they can prepare. Demiurge says that that makes sense, and says they should just do whatever for now.

At this point, players are able to go around the floors they have access to, which includes Cockroach, Dung Beetle, Ant Floor, Arachnid Floor, and Monarch Floor. And through out, players can interact with various characters there, including those from sidequests or various party members.
*Kensey and Dandy - The two are seen hanging around. Dandy says that now that the prices are lower, he doesn't have to work on his old business. Kensey says that the tiger'll be joining him in his missions for now. Dandy tells Demiurge and Kensey that he's really thankful for their efforts: if they hadn't stepped in when they did, he'd probably still be a slave to those jerks.
*Mont - The quetzal says that more people are getting self defense. She's not sure on the overall affects of the clients, though a part of her feels like the damages will lower. She has a feeling that she'll be seeing less harmed, which is good. Surely those guys will be less willing to attack someone with a weapon. She says she's glad that they're making progress.
*D'mere - The mantis says that she hasn't felt spirits this high ever. That being said, she knows not to rest on her laurels. Solumn will likely respond, she might even realize that the resistance is back. She's not sure if she'll target her herself, but odds are she'll target someone. That means they need to be prepared for anything, and she wants Demiurge to keep on his toes.
*Andas - The bobcat is sitting at a corner on the Arachnid Floor, leaning against a building while sighing. He says that he's sure his son would've loved to see this... He could get some fancy food, give it to him, maybe get a cool outfit... He knows this isn't the end, and to be honest, he's glad. He can't wait to break into their hidden alcoves and free his son wherever they have him.
*Aun - The penguin says that the upper floors seem unaware of much of the going ons. A few have heard of the good news, and a few are a little perturbed. The shops up here are especially feeling upset that they won't be making as much money as they have been. But she's sure that as these guys continue paying for stuff, they'll eventually get along with it. Either way, she's preparing to fight with the resistance.

At any point, players can go to Mont's shop to sleep.

;Demi 11th

On this day, the morning comes. Here, Kensey tells Demiurge that they need to be careful: the guards are more on patrol this morning than ever before. They mobilized overnight and have been moving around and checking out houses. According to D'mere, this is happening on multiple floors. Demiurge gets worried and holes up in the shop, and they can hear more guards than usual patrol outside. They wait and wait, and eventually the guards part. Kensey and group steps out for a moment, and see the Bee machines from before, flying up and going up towards the lift shafts.

They wait more and more, when those monitors come down, those same ones that showed off an execution. Down they come, before they flash on, revealing the image of Solumn looking out from the screen. She addresses the "Children of the Eminence", saying that this morning, the military force was in far greater numbers than before, as they most certainly noticed. That's because their community's faced a terrible crime: Much of their resources were stolen away while they're unawares, and has kept them firmly out of their hands. 

For this, she seeks retribution. Those that have claimed their material can return them and not face consequence. Those that know who committed the act will be rewarded handsomely for turning them in. If there is no change, the patrols will be more and more frequent. That will be all this morning. '''Earn, behave, live'''. With that, the monitors return. Mont remarks that this isn't good... Kensey says she's probably gonna execute those behind this, and she's going to get rid of those stores' assets. They need to do something about this, asap! Dandy asks if D'mere said anything, though Mont says she only confirmed that they've been seeing patrols themselves. For now, she supposes they can only wait for any news.

;Demi 12th

The patrols are out again, and again they wait. The guards return to those Bee machines, and after they do, they wait, when they get an alert on their radio. Goe's proclaiming that they'd just tried to take his kid! Mont rings over, asking what he means. Goe says they were trying that Kinder Gardening thing, they tried to extort him. He was lucky to have the money necessary, but if they come by again, he won't be able to protect her. Mont says she'll come up.

They turn off the radio, and Mont says they should get moving, now.
----
They make it to the Dung Beetle Floor and looks around, soon arriving at an apartment looking akin to D'mere's, except shorter. They look through the rooms, and finds Lon, Andas, and D'mere entering a room. There, they find Goe holding a small swan girl close, him and her crying profusely while they hold each other. D'mere tells him he got the message, what happened. Goe struggles to explain that he waited inside for the patrols to stop, when one of those mechs opened up the wall in the side. The mech said he owed money and threatened to take away the girl as insurance, but he threw his money at the machine, and it let go of her. 

The group is very disturbed, D'mere in particular looking upset while Andas just feels guilty. She says that they're clearly trying to destroy their resistance in whatever way they can. Demiurge asks how they associated him with them, to which D'mere explains that he was an old associate. They probably figured he was involved in the thievery of their supplies. And if they're targeting him, who knows what they'll do to the rest of them? D'mere herself has her daughter elsewhere, there's no telling what's happening with other associates, and Lon...

Andas gives pause, before saying that this has to be their next mission. The party turns to him curious. He says that this is one of the ways they control. They're not killing them, but they're scaring them and the people associated without making it clear this is a matter of them versus the resistance. If they can track down where they take one of these children, then maybe they can put an end to that means of control. Goe seems ready to demand how he could come to a conclusion like that, only for D'mere to chime in, saying that that might actually be useful. 

D'mere says that it's dirty, but if they're able to follow a Kinder Gardened cage to wherever they're being taken and dispose of it, not only would they be able to claim without question that the foes are trying to dismantle their resistance, and show their cruelty. They got the weaponry, they got the rapport, and if they get this, they can ignite the powder keg that is this tower. But before anything, she needs to ask Lon if she's willing to do this. The chinchilla gives pause, and feels sick to her stomach. She mutters that she couldn't... Andas points out that it won't matter what she wants. If those guards chose her child, it's either she has the amount of money they want, or they take her son. Lon takes a few short breaths, and says that she needs to consider. D'mere says that's fair, and she says she'd hate to have her agree to anything she's not willing to.

Either way, for now they've learned about this. They should break and give Lon time to think. With that, the party, now feeling tense, decides to back away from the apartment, leaving Goe to keep on hugging his daughter.
----
With this, the group's left and is allowed to do whatever they wish for the rest of the day, though there's still the worry of these guys' children to worry about.

;Demi 13th

The group waits for the patrols to pass, though Lon, Goe, and D'mere report that a few children were taken away. Even on this floor the group can see one of these Kinder Gardenings happen. Kensey says that this can't keep happening, that they have to get up and fight! Mont says that D'mere hasn't said anything yet. If they're going to breach the annals of the Eminence they need everyone together. The rat groans at this, and Dandy speaks up. He says maybe they should check up on the Monarch Floor, maybe see if anything off is going on up there. Besides, Aun said she wanted to be ready to fight alongside them. 

With this, they decide to check on the penguin.
----
They make it up to the Monarch Floor, and find the penguin near. She sees them, and says she's heard about the recent happenings. Sounds like those guys are cracking down on the resistance. Kensey says that Solumn seems hard at work breaking down what they've worked for. Aun says she doesn't want to sit around and let them do this. So, she'll fight with them. She isn't too experienced, but she thinks she can manage something. She then reveals a rifle she's been hiding behind her back. 

Seeing that, Kensey seems surprised. Aun says she's tried it on a few cans she's bought. She's pretty satisfied with how it feels. Anyways, she feels she should hang out with them, she's sure that something's going to happen sometime soon. Mont says that'd be appreciated, and so the group takes a lift down to the Cockroach Floor. They're down and begin walking towards Mont's store. However, they become interrupted. 

An odd looking pair approaches, either with what looks like guard equipment. They said that they're looking for anyone that matches Solumn's description. Kensey says they're looking, but the pair continues, saying that they talked to a few guys. They managed to talk with one of them. They mentioned a rat with a tough-looking appearance, and pointed towards Kensey. They said they'll get a confession out of them and draw their weapons. And at this, Aun drew her rifle and says now's a good time to show her thing.

With this, the group's forced to fight the '''Impromptu Bounty Hunters'''. Sure enough, they're not too tough, this is more a chance to see what Aun can do. She can deal Stabbing damage with her gun, though doesn't seem too keen on damage. Instead, she's far more oriented towards support. She seems able to nullify an enemy's defenses, changing their Res to Wek, or getting rid of reflective walls. She's also able to drain SP from an enemy, which works in tandem with her ability to give SP to allies. With this, they're able to overwhelm the duo, each dropping. 

With that, they're able to continue forwards. Aun asks what the group's settling on, and Mont says they're not sure right now. Their group seems to be struggling on what mission to do, though they seem to be leaning towards following wherever those Kinder Gardening victims are going. The penguin asks isn't that death? Dandy says that the resistance might think it's part of some trick on their end. If they can break into their group, then maybe they can destroy the enemies' rapport.

Either way, they don't have much more to go on, so they have to wait.

;Demi 14th - Demi 16th

With that, players are able to do what they wish, waiting for the story to continue.
----
At the end of the day, Mont gets a call on the radio. She checks it out, and it's Lon. She says that she's spoken with her daughter. She told her that she loves her deeply and that she wants the best for her, so when what'll happen happens, she wants her to know that she loves her. Mont says that they'll join up there as soon as possible.
----
That night, the group meets up on the Ant Floor, having spoken to the chinchilla. D'mere assures that whatever happens, Lon's daughter will return to her. Lon thanks them, and she says that she'll be hoping... Either way, the group decides to camp out near the track that usually carries victims away, lingering near it for the night.

;Demi 17th

This morning, the group wakes up, and can hear the sounds of guards moving around. The group watches, watching Lon's apartment intently. A mech approaches, the security screens lowering and coming to life as feed shines through from said mech's pov. It's seen opening up the side of the wall, revealing Lon's room and her chinchilla daughter. The mech speaks in Solumn's voice, saying what D'mere herself heard. Lon is forced to go through the motions, saying that she doesn't want to die, and the mech is able to capture the child before walking away, sealing the smaller chinchilla in one of those cages. 

They see it put on the track and zipped away, Andas declaring that they need to move now! Demiurge gets the party on his back, and then flies up towards the opening the cage is heading towards. It goes through, and the Dragon's able to force his way in before the entry seals. They then race more and more, and witness the cage taking a sharp turn, the group curious. Aun speaks up, saying that the way the cage is heading isn't towards the outside. Andas says that that confirms this is all some elaborate trick. That means that if they follow that cage, they can get to the bottom of what the Eminence is doing with these guys.

;Demi 17th - Demi 23rd

With this, players are tasked with traversing the '''Annals of Eminence''', a network of tunnels that appears to lead from the many, many floors to feed into a single track that leads somewhere someways up the tower. By the end, Aun seems to estimate that the tunnels lead to about the halfway portion of the citizen floors. Either way, the group has to climb up them more and more, forced to battle security systems within, and guards that are overlooking the track. It's a fairly long track, but fortunately, it seems to the group that they only have to follow one track to get to what they suspect is the end of the trail.

They make it to the end, and see the track they've been following empties towards a room the size of a warehouse. It has some fairly wide walkways arranged like the outline of a square around a pit dozens of feet deep, and it has those tracks that carry the cages feed into the pit, where they're deposited onto one of several branching tracks and locked into place, the shutters still in place. Upon those tracks, the tracks carrying the cages rock and shutter threateningly, no sound able to escape from them. Other than that, there are guards patrolling around the walkway, and at the wall closest to the outside of the tower is what looks like a viewing platform with controls in them. 

The party is horrified. Andas describes it as a contraption meant to drive the fear of death into any who enter. And D'mere describes it as a means of also driving resentment into those forced in, making them hate those that abandoned them. Demiurge can say "It can only hurt others..." or "It has to be stopped!" The party focuses on the observation platform, Andas saying that they get there, they can stop all of this. And thus, the player's forced to go through the walkways to get to the platform, though they'll find it's locked. They try a few of the other guards' keys, and find they don't fit. 

Mont asks D'mere what they should do now, and she begins to ponder, however, the pounding of metal can be heard. They turn towards the entryway that leads to the upper levels of the tower. Down the ramp comes a familiar pair, Tena and his mech. As he walks, he declares that he's heard of some rats in the gears around here, so he suggest that they either get far away form here, or offer up their necks to judgement. The party looks upon him, and D'mere says that that man may very well be their key here. She warns that it won't be easy...

After confirmation on the player's part, the group decides to go out and confront Tena. They head out around the ridge and confront him, seeing the turtle guard turn towards them. He remarks that the rats in the gearwork finally showed themselves. He then pays particular attention to the Dragon, remarking that he was wondering when he'd finally have the chance to bring his head to the boss. Dandy asks what he means, and the turtle laughs, remarking that they really don't know just what Demiurge is. Demiurge seems concerned about what he'll say, and Tena asks him if he's going to tell them, or should he? Demiurge is then offered the choice of saying "I'll explain" or "...". Either way, the group's told about how he's an immortal, one that worked alongside the elder group. And he's personally shaped history to make sure this tower prospered. Kensey says that that's still unbelievable, but Tena tells him believe whatever he wishes, the truth is the truth. The group can't help but spare Demiurge a look, and Tena says that Solumn hopes deeply that he's enjoyed the world he's made.

Either way, D'mere confronts him, telling him that this is insane, that no right person would do something like this! This floor can only ever hurt! Tena declares that this is far from a one-person act here. After all, someone needs to cause a great disturbance to have their kin put in here. D'mere herself caused a stink, and she got her dear daughter sent here. All these people had to do was comply, and no one had to enter this room. And then they leave them alone to suffer in these cages and have the audacity to complain about how terrible they are. D'mere glares and brings out her weapon, declaring that she refuses to uphold their terrible rule! She refuses to let them keep on hurting their loved ones, and she refuses to let them act like they're above everybody!

Andas declares that they're going to get everyone out of here, and that includes Nim! Tena pauses, repeating Nim in a questioning tone, before straightening up in realization. He remarks that he's Andas... before darkly chuckling. Andas asks him what's so funny, but he doesn't answer. He presses some buttons on his wrist, and the mech he's with opens up its chest, allowing the turtle to jump into it. He declares that today, Solumn will be one very happy woman. The chest shuts, and the mech stands tall and threatening while the party draws their weapons. Andas swears that he'll tear his head off if anything's happened to his boy!

With that, the fight starts with the '''Tena Mech'''. The mech itself is extremely large and boasts a lot of HP. It also has the ability to swap what physical attack it can block (Null damage from Slash, Stab, or Smash), while the rest of the physical attacks are resisted. The party is forced to contend with it, its physical power, and its Water and Electric damage. Partway through, Mont declares that this thing's armor is too tough, and D'mere herself is considering... She thinks she can see its exhaust system, and suspects if they damage it, they can make it vulnerable. Now the exhaust is targetable, and if enough damage is done to it, the mech itself is unable to act for a couple of turns while its core opens up to air out excess heat. The core is weak to all damage. Properly defending it and exposing it should let players beat it in battle.

After enough damage is sustained, the machine sputters and struggles, falling to its knees. The chest opens up and Tena is forced to leap out as the massive machine falls down. Tena grunts and struggles on one of his apparently harmed legs, saying that these nothings are annoying. Andas then demands to know what he's done to Nim. Tena groans and stands up, saying that it's not what ''he'' did to Nim, but what Andas did to Nim. Did he really think he could keep on biting the hand that feeds and not face consequences? Andas pauses and asks him what he means. Tena asks him if he really has to spell it out. Nim. Is. Dead. Executed like a criminal because his dear old dad decided to play chicken with his rulers. Andas freezes up and gets wide eyed, only able to mutter that he's lying.

Tena laughs and says that it must hurt, seeing what his decisions cause. Solumn's been given the experience of hundreds of years, what does any of the morons on these residential floors think they are, acting like they understand how better to rule them? Especially when they're putting their children in the way of danger? Tena swiftly draws a Guard Edge akin to what D'mere wields, and asks them if it's any wonder why they live beneath the military. They all pale in comparison to the glorious leader herself, and if any of them were in charge, they'd just get themselves killed! But none of them like to hear reason, so the guards have to keep on scaring them, redirecting their attention, and worming their ways anywhere in the residential districts! 

D'mere declares that if he refuses to see the error in Solumn's works, he's lost. There are people suffering needlessly under her, she's building a system to create competition between the residents on this floor while leaving the guards above everyone. Things need to change, and if that means tearing down their whole establishment one person at a time, then she's fine with that! With that, the turtle swings his weapon threateningly, and declares that they need more than determination and hope to tear through him!

With that, the scene transitions straight into a battle with '''Officer Tena'''. Tena is similarly defensive, taking little damage while dealing a fair amount of damage back, though he has a strong lean towards physical damage. So players should work towards improving physical defense and lowering physical damage. Worse still, when he defends he can nullify all damage. Utilize any avenues to heighten damage on him, be mindful of his ability to swap between Smash and Slash damage, they should bring his health down.

A cutscene shows him stumbling, his guard dropping and leaving him exposed. With this, D'mere rushes forwards, the edge of her weapon unfolding into a scythe and she aims the blade forwards, ramming it into his stomach while Andas races alongside, him pressing into the back to have it shove in harder, piercing the foe's armor. D'mere then slices upwards, cleaving through him and grievously wounding him. While he's working through that pain, she brings the scythe blade up and wraps it around his neck. He grasps at the shaft and says they can't do this! But D'mere and Andas tug at the shaft, before swiftly shoving back, bringing the blade through the Officer's neck. He gasps and stumbles, before falling forwards, his armored head rolling off his neck while his body slams down with an echoing thud.

The group searches his body and finds an ornate keycard. They take it and go into the observation platform, unlocking the door and finding the many controls within. They search and press a few buttons, able to stop the machines from rocking. Then they press some other buttons, and the bottoms of the cages release, letting the prisoners fall down to the floor a couple feet beneath said cages. There're many screams of worry, though they come to realize they aren't in the toxic environment outside. They look around confused and part of the party goes out to greet them. Andas and D'mere stay behind, each bringing up their respective weapons, and lashing at the controls, intent on smashing them beyond repair.

The party goes down the ladders leading to the bottom of the pit, and finds the various children left in the pit. They're quick to comfort them and begin escorting them up the ladders. Andas is soon able to join up with the party and looks over them, searching for his child. The kids pass more and more, and Andas soon realizes Nim isn't among them. The kids pass, Dandy, Kensey, Mont, and Aun escorting them while Demiurge, D'mere, and Andas are behind. The former two are looking over the latter, clearly unsure what to say. Andas says that this wasn't supposed to happen... that Tena can only be lying, surely. With this, Demiurge can say "You have to move on" or "You're a terrible person". 
----
After all of that, the party escorts the children to whatever floor they were kidnapped from. And of course among them is Lon, who reunites with her chinchilla daughter. She excitedly snatches her up and holds her tight, hugging her against her and sobbing. The same is true for many people that night as their kin is returned en masse. It seems the resistance has one more victory.

;Demi 24th

On this day, the group reconvenes. This morning, they find many, many guards are out and about, patrolling. And they can also see the security monitor lower, revealing Solumn on it. She gives her infamous glare and says that a murder most foul was carried out. On the Arachnid Floor, one of her officers, Tena, was found beheaded. She says that this is a terrible loss to her fellow men, and hereby demands that whoever is behind it be revealed. The guards will be out and about in larger and larger numbers, seeking out any leads. If anyone has anything, they will be compensated heartily. With that, the monitor retracts.

Demiurge and group are on the Arachnid Floor near D'mere's room. He remarks that that's not where Tena was felled. Aun then suggests that maybe she wanted to skew where he was destroyed. If the public found out about that awful room, that'll definitely make Solumn and group an enemy. She wouldn't be surprised if they were able to somehow bring his body down to this floor, probably hoping to somehow link it to members of their resistance. Either way, it certainly sounds like Solumn's struggling.

For now, it's time to prepare. They get those children to talk about what they've been through, they expose Tena's mech at the crash site, and then they can make the final stand against the ruling powers themselves. Kensey's excited, they can put the boot to that ferret. Dandy can't wait to make something more of his life. Mont says she can't wait to look at a better living space from here on out. D'mere says that Solumn's going to get exactly what she deserves. Andas can only be silent. Aun says that she's going to avenge her dear friend and bring the hammer on those guards. With this, Demiurge can say "It's time for a better future" or "It's time to make things right".

With that, the party's oncoming mission seems set.
===Finale===
;Demi 24th - Demi 30th

And with this, players are given time to prepare. D'mere's anticipating that the time for revolution will be tough, so they need to make sure they're in top form. Once the new year comes, it'll be time for all of them to fight like their lives depends on it. Not just their lives, but everyone in the Eminence. With this, players are allowed to grind up on the floors, perform any sidequests still available, and gather material. Meanwhile, Goe, Lon, and D'mere's other allies are working alongside the children, and even escorting a few citizens along the annals to the lair they were held up at.

On the night of Demi 30th, D'mere approaches Demiurge. She tells him that their group is going to talk and prepare for the oncoming battle. Tomorrow could spell death for anyone not prepared and anyone not using their weaponry properly. The people have been provided the various equipment they stole, but she anticipates their group will still have to be vigilant in this fight. Either way, before he sleeps, she suggests that he make absolutely sure he has everything necessary for tomorrow.

;Demi 31st

On this day, the various citizens seem to be in arms, each being quite upset and in the streets. The guards, meanwhile, are all around the streets, weary of the various angry people. D'mere, meanwhile, has written down a speech on each slip of paper and has given it to various individuals, who each head to the appropriate floors to go up. They each make their way to the appropriate floor, while the main party groups up on the Cockroach Floor, prepared to take care of any and all issues, from bottom to top. The group goes over to the central lift, ready for their speech. The party each looks towards each other, a mix of concern and determination on each of them. And then, they each nod, and step forwards. 

Once there, Demiurge raises his wings and bellows, demanding their attention. The people of the floor turn to him curious, the many guards tense. D'mere steps forwards. She explains that they, the people, have been cheated and lied to. Everyone's been thrust into pain and misery under the command of an unjust ruler. She's worked in secret to keep make the people of the Eminence enemies of each other, limiting the money supply and encouraging attacks among each other. And in the meantime, they've scared the people away from the government. But now, their fear turns to hatred.

So long as they think they can drive them with fear, they think they can do whatever they want. That's why today, they need to show everyone that they won't be so compliant. Get mad! Get rebellious! For the children they drove to hatred. For those that died because of the rulers. For those that think they have nothing but despair to look forwards to. It's time to fight! With that, the people of the floor cheer out, the many guards on the floor seeming uncertain. Cuts to other floors reveal the many people on each in similar high spirits. One of the guards on the Cockroach Floor approaches a cheering group, ordering them to get inside. However, one of the group sees them, draws a pistol they'd been hiding, and fires at the guard, causing them to stumble.

And with that gunshot, like a chain reaction, the people of the floor begin attacking, slashing, stabbing, and smashing the guards of the floor. The guards themselves start to respond in kind, and at this, D'mere declares that it's time. The common people are fighting, but if the people fail this fight, the rebellion could be ended right now. With that, the party hurls themselves into the action, approaching a group of guards that're driving back a group of gunner citizens. With this, they quickly engage the '''Guards'''. They have to battle multiple guards, starting with four and ultimately ending at eight. 

After taking care of the various guards, the foes turn and run, though as they run, they can hear the familiar sound of a machine's footsteps. They turn, and see one of those oncoming mechs approach, it speaking in Solumn's voice and ordering them to surrender. With this, the group is forced to battle the '''Security Mech'''. The mech is a pretty tough foe, it being fairly resistant to physical attacks. Worse, it has a skill that lets it switch what physical attack it Blocks. However, through careful movement and strategy, they should be able to wear down the mech, causing it to slump down. The cockpit opens up, revealing a guard within, who's forced to run. 

At this, Kensey points to the lifts, showing that a lot of the guards are fleeing to the upper floors. D'mere says that they need to make sure every floor is aided! With this, players are allowed a moment to fix up their HP and SP, before heading up to the next floor.
----
Time passes as the group goes through the next few floors, the player skipping until they make it up to the Arachnid Floor. There, they're forced to battle a '''Guard Horde''', needing to wear down a large multitude of guards. And after clearing a Horde, the group's forced to battle another Mech, though this one is aided by a pair of Guards. Fortunately, they beat the lot of them, and more guards are forced to flee. D'mere says that the numbers are getting more and more dense the more and more they fight, but they're all getting closer to out of the residential floors! The group's allowed another moment to recuperate before taking the lift.
----
The group goes through more and more floors, more skipping done as the group gets higher and higher, before eventually reaching the Monarch Floor. There, even the higher class people are fighting the guards. Only problem: the concentration of guards in this floor is significantly higher than any floor below. D'mere declares that this is their last stretch. Everyone needs to get their wits about, and make one! Last! Push!

With that, the group's forced to fight again, now dealing with three '''Guard Hordes''', before dealing with two '''Mechs'''. It'll be the hardest fight yet, but through hard work and perseverance, the player should be able to take care of the lot of them. With this, the guards are forced to flee, and now take to the various lifts, inputting their special guard keys in each and having those lift them up to the guard floors.

The party's panting and panting. Meanwhile, the now guard-less floors are now cheering, each excited at the new freedom. The party themselves can't help but be excited themselves, each sitting down on the floor they're at. Kensey looks skyward, almost expecting to see those monitors lower and to hear Solumn chastise them. But they just stay raised. Dandy says he feels so tired. Mont raises a brow herself and can't help but look at her watch, her giving a light chuckle. She says that they spent so long fighting, the day's passed...

;Jaunus 1st

Dandy remarks that he's going to feel so sore tomorrow. Aun, meanwhile, can't help but ask the obvious question: They just beat the guards, not Solumn herself. So then, what'll happen? D'mere says that Solumn's influence is shoved out of resident affairs. She could send guards down, though they could always repel them again. Same goes for if she sends a larger force. Solumn would probably send herself down when she realizes she herself needs to fight, though they might be prepared for that fight, and if they fell her, then it'll all be over. If they get really lucky, those jerks will probably stay locked away up there while the rest of them live on down here.

Either way, the future looks a little brighter. For now, they need people to monitor the upper floors here to look out for if anyone comes down. Kensey, meanwhile, says that he needs to sleep the rest of the day away, asap. With that, the group goes down many, many floors to rest at the Cockroach Floor, resting the day away while the streets are alight with joy and freedom, looking out for a brighter future for everyone down here.

;Jaunus 2nd

On this day, the group wakes up again. They step out, and look around in slight confusion. Mont remarks that she almost expected to see guards still walking the streets. But clearly they're still up there. D'mere calls on her radio and asks for any updates, to which the guy posted up there says that there's been no movement from the Guard Floors to the Resident Floors. D'mere says that right now they can't do much but live their own lives. So, she tells each of them to live the best they can, but to remain ready.

;Jaunus 2nd - Jaunus 6th

With this period of time, players are able to enjoy the streets and get to see how a lot of people are happier now, more upbeat. There're still some stragglers and looters to fight (for grinding and sidequest sake), but all in all, things are nicer.
*Kensey - Kensey remarks that his job's easier. He no longer has to worry about bumping into guards or anyone, and thankfully, there's still some baddies on the streets that need to be cleared. It's ironic, he's escorting people, and ''he'' feels more secure.
*Dandy - Dandy's feeling a lot more confidant. He's been able to get a new job with Clance, and he hasn't had to sell himself for money. And by now, it feels like those old scars he'd gathered are healed over. He thanks Demiurge for all of the help, and says he doesn't know where he'd be by now.
*Mont - Mont says that she's primarily kept herself as isolated from the baddies as she can, but no matter where you go, you feel Solumn's breath on your neck. Well, you did, at least. The guards are gone, and she feels she can breathe a little happier. She says things are so much better now, and thanks Demiurge.
*D'mere - D'mere says that she's decided to search for her kid. And wouldn't you know it, she was proud of her. Mommy scared all the bad guys away, she's so cool. D'mere says she feels ashamed that she let those guys scare her away like that, but now she feels so full.
*Andas - Andas doesn't respond to Demiurge at first. He doesn't respond again. Upon speaking again, he says he doesn't have anything to talk about. His kid's killers still need to face the music. He doesn't care if he has to break in there himself, he will destroy that maniac.
*Aun - Aun says that she's amazed. The people up here seem to actually care for what goes on below now, and they seem happy that the guards are away. They're still struggling to adjust, but more and more seem to've gotten the hang of it. And she's sure that her penpal's happy.
----
On the night of Jaunus 6th, the day seems to pass by without much happening. However, at night, the security monitors lower. Everyone on each floor looks up in concern, watching as the monitors descend from the ceiling. The monitors are low, before they flash on to life. On each monitor, there is the image of Solumn, arms behind her back and staring judgmentally down at the crowd. She takes a moment to look across each of them, before speaking.

She explains that she knows that a few of them have kickstarted the attack last week. She wishes to address them. She orders them to stand before the central lift at the Cockroach Floor. There, she and the kickstarters will meet, and they, together, will end this... insurrection. With that, the monitors retract, and the civilians across the many floors feel slight unease.  

The party meets up, and Dandy asks what they should do. Mont says if she intends to meet them all, she probably wishes to finish them in one blow. D'mere argues otherwise: everyone's had a taste of rebellion, so seeing the lot of them felled wouldn't break their spirit. Even then, they weren't the only ones that spread the word of rebellion, so there'd be others that might be seen as big players in the rebellion. Kensey asks if they can really trust her not to have some trick. Andas says that of course they can't, but this might be their only chance to get at Solumn herself. Aun supposes that's true, there's no telling if they'd be able to get through the Guard Floor just yet, especially if all of those guards are up there.

D'mere says that they should confront her, show they have no fear. If she's trying anything, then their eyes in the upper floors can warn them. She tells everyone that tomorrow could be their toughest fight yet, so she tells everyone to keep in high spirits. Despite this, players aren't allowed a moment to buy things.

;Jaunus 7th

On this day, the party wakes up, and they each meet up at the Cockroach Floor, near the central platform. Each member seems nervous yet determined, and faces the Dragon, as if waiting for something from him. Demiurge can thus say "We won once, let's do it again" or "It's time to finish this". At that, the group nods collectively. D'mere, meanwhile, draws her radio and looks at it expectantly. It sparks to life, and someone on the other side explains that Solumn's mech just went down. D'mere asks for clarification, if there was any sign of other people. The voice answers no, that the mech was the only thing that went down. D'mere says that she wouldn't do anything that damages her own mech, but at the same time its frame is too small for her to ride in. So what's going on? 

Either way, they wait and wait and wait. After what feels like an hour of waiting, they see the lift coming down from on high, and sure enough, the ferret's mech is upon it. The party each takes up a defensive stance and watches as it comes closer and closer, and as they wait, the security monitors lower from the ceiling. And according to some reports over the radio, it's happening for other floors too. And on the monitor is the sight of Solumn herself, alongside camera feed of the mech itself. The lift comes closer and closer to the floor, and settles.

The mech lumbers off of the platform and towards the closest group, the party. It comes closer and closer, and as it approaches, Solumn asks if they are the people she'd asked for, her voice coming out through the monitors. Kensey answers that they are. The machine leans in close, it seeming to physically eye up each member, their faces appearing on the monitor as well. Solumn appears to grimace as the machine focuses on the Dragon, some of the party noticing the odd reaction though not commenting. The mech then steps back, giving the group space.

Solumn says that she will give the residents of the Eminence two opportunities, and two opportunities alone. The first opportunity is everyone's chance to keep in her good graces. The second opportunity ''will'' be their last. As such, she asks the group if they and those that follow them will comply with her leadership. D'mere declares that they never will. They showed that they're willing to defy her and her forces, and they will show it over and over again if they have to! Dandy declares that she can no longer bully them! Mont says she has no say over the way they live! Andas demands she stop wasting time and come down and face them herself! Aun says that she can never expect them to submit to her! And as they speak, the many citizens on the many floor seem to shout in response, hollering them on.

Solumn, unflinchingly, asks if they confirm this to be their first response. Demiurge simply gives a determined nod. With that, the mech turns and walks to the lift. The party's confused, and the radio flares up. The guy on the other side says that bee mechs are flying down from the upper floors! D'mere declares that this is a trap, they have to move! The party begins drawing weapons, though the voice comes on again. It says that the bee stopped at the window on their floor. Other voices come on, reporting similar things, and the security monitors' image changes. Instead of Solumn and her mech's feed, the image is filled with live feed of one of the windows on the various floors.

The party looks on in both confusion in worry. And then, almost in tandem, they see the windows on each floor... crack open...

The party and civilians look towards the windows on their floors, and they can see many citizens at said windows run away in droves. And behind those rushing guys is a wall of toxic air flowing in from outside. The former cheer and determination on the floor melts away to sheer terror, and each citizen is rushing haphazardly, either to their homes or to the lifts. Some are mashing on the console of the lifts, some are finding their way in their houses only for the gas to seep into any cracks, and the monitors are showing the destructive air billowing in through each and every floor.

The party hears are each terrified and are running in the direction of the nearest lift, though looking at the monitor, they realize that that's fruitless too. Eventually the camera feed of each floor shuts off as the bee mechs fly up back to the military floor, it replaced by the image of Solumn staring down at the terrified masses judgmentally. People are hammering away at the consoles, people are getting trampled in the panic, parents are holding their sobbing children like it's the end, and the gas is just getting closer. 

Demiurge eventually finds himself lunging upon either party member to try and keep them under his frame in hopes of keeping them shielded from the toxic air, even as it sweeps over him. He tries desperately to hold his breath, but eventually he's forced to take some of it in, and in a single breath he feels a shock to his system. However, as the entire floor seems swamped in the air of death, everyone hears industrial-sized fans flare on, and pull the toxic wind away from the floors and send them outside, the windows each shutting. Fortunately, it seemed that they were spared, though many can still hear the horrified sobs of others, and many can hear many a victim vomiting. 

Solumn speaks up, telling them all that they're free to live how they wish. No guards to bother them for now, none of her rules, none of any of that. But she expects them to earn their livelihood now. Suddenly, a number appears on the monitor. It's several billions-worth of money, and Solumn declares that her mercy is hard-won, but not unobtainable. She expects everyone to play their part by the end of the month. And with that, the image of Solumn herself disappears, though the number itself remains. Only now it's accompanied by "0/(amount)", plus the date Febrar 1st. The implication is clear: she expects everyone to come together to collectively pay an absurd amount of money to the government in a short amount of time. If they don't, it could be the end for all of them...
----
Shortly after, the many people of the floors are in a frenzy. Inspecting Clance's shop reveals that the toxins poisoned the crop and soil, so now he's desperately begging the citizens for money so he can get food from Solumn. Those that had clothing and self defense are quick to sell anything so they can give Solumn what she requests. Perhaps worst off, the attack wasn't bloodless, as many elderly and those with various biological problems were killed. 

Kensey, of course, is pissed. He cries that they spent so long working to fix things up around here, and that maniac dashed their hopes away with a single move! Dandy says he felt like he was going to die, and Mont comfortingly pats his shoulder. She says that even if they do pay off Solumn's demands, she's just going to put things back the way they were, if not render the masses more dependent on her. Aun says that they took away their food stations as a side effect of that attack, meaning that they'll have to rely on the guards to get them money. D'mere says that she knew Solumn was extreme, but to come so close to destroy everything like that...

There's a silence among the group, one heavy with contemplation. Eventually, Demiurge can't help but feel he needs to speak up. He says that their previous plans are clearly gone to the wind. The leader's shown her hand, and unfortunately, all they can do is respond to it in kind. He asks them if they want to make things better... D'mere and Dandy nod... He asks if they want to make things right... Mont and Aun nod... He asks if they want her to answer for her wrongdoings... Kensey and Andas nod. With that, he declares that there's only one thing any of them can do now... "Get into the thick of it" or "Bring the fight to Solumn". Either way, the party agrees. They need to get past the guard floors. They need to get to the top of the Eminence, and they need to defeat the ferret before she can actualize on her plans.

;Jaunus 8th - Febrar 1st

With this, players have a simple mission: finish the revolution. They must bypass all of the guard floors in order to get at Solumn herself. In order to do this, first they must go up to the Monarch Floor, where they see that the many well-dressed citizens on this floor have sold their clothing away, now dressed only in those bodysuits. Either way, they approach one of the lifts, where Aun says that they won't have the advantage of attracting the guards' attention. They go up here, they'll probably have to deal with the full force. Andas says that he's looking forwards to giving these monsters what they deserve, and Kensey says he can't wait to bash some skulls!

When the player's ready, they can fly up, at which they'll cross the lift and onto the Lower Guard Floors where they once were. Upon reaching the platform, they find a few guards waiting for them, and are quickly forced to fight. After beating them, D'mere says that they can't worry about the usual supplies right now, they need to make their way up to Solumn! With that, the player's tasked with maneuvering through the halls and past the guards to get to the other lifts, where they have to open up shutters to get to higher floors.

They progress further and further, and are eventually able to bypass the production part of the floor to get higher. They progress up and find themselves on one of the floors containing barracks, indicating they've made it to the living space of the guard floor. They've made it to the '''Upper Guard Floors'''. Demiurge says he's familiar with this... They're getting close. Solumn waited for him on a floor akin to one of these. Kensey asks what Solumn was doing with him, and the Dragon pauses. 

He asks them if they remember what Tena said, about him. Truth is, he has lived a long time. He did help construct the tower. Truth is, this future's on his shoulders as well. And when he first arrived, Solumn seemed to want him to know that he was an enemy in this time. The party gives pause, and Kensey remarks that he's been telling this lie too much... is he serious? Demiurge is silent, though it speaks volumes. Sure enough, they realize that Demiurge really means it, that he's helped construct this era. Though D'mere speaks up. She says that the world sucks as it is, but he's not behind people like Solumn. Besides, if he's messed up everything, that means it's his job to fix it, which he's working towards now. The party, though unsure at first, does seem to ultimately agree, though they certainly have a more shaken view of their friend now.
----
The player again has to progress through the various floors. They have to deal with more guards, more mechs, more security systems, and even some bee mechs. They have to get higher and higher, soon arriving at the floor Demiurge remembers. The Dragon can see the building that Solumn met him in earlier, and suggests she may be in there right now. However, Mont speaks up. She says that if she's willing to let in the destructive gasses as a mere show, she'll probably end them if the lot of them are to face her. Kensey asks what they're to do then, and D'mere says that the only recourse is to steal her control out from under her. 

Demiurge himself can't really sneak in, so players will be forced to control D'mere as she sneaks in through the insides of Solumn's building. They'll have to contend with a few security systems, before getting to certain consoles. At each console, the mantis remarks that she seems to have a remote connection to the various functions of the tower. First the party smashes the console that controls the windows, they tear out a device placed on a console for the lift, tear out a device placed on a console for the radio systems, and tear out a device on the console for the security monitors. After the last console is dealt with, D'mere says that that's it. Solumn's been isolated from all of her resources. Now, it's time to finish this.

The party meets up at the front door, and are given one last chance to make sure everyone's ready. Upon deciding all preparations are made, the group steps forwards, entering. Inside, they see Solumn's mech. Demiurge demands that the ferret shows herself, and at that the ferret comes down from the stairs. She sees the group, and is already pressing on buttons on her cuffs. She says that the lot of them have some nerve coming this far while she holds the world by the neck. Kensey says that she can forget about that, she has nothing to fall back on anymore. Solumn cocks a brow curious, and Dandy says that they made sure she couldn't hurt anyone again.

She glances at her cuff in annoyance, before crossing her arms behind her. She supposes this is happening then. With that, she begins to walk while pressing on some buttons on her cuffs, and the ladybug-like mech suddenly flares to life and walks alongside her. As the pair walks, the party's forced to step back, and the group's out on the main floor of the current floor. She asks them what they intend to do after today, after tomorrow. Aun says that they're going to live better, that they're going to make sure everyone gets a chance to live comfortably. Solumn then asks "and?"

She explains that in a different world, everyone's happiness would be achievable. But right now, the world doesn't support everyone, and they can only hope to build up and out of this. If they wasted their time with everyone's joy, they may be stuck staring at that toxic landscape for even longer. Dandy then asks if she thinks that way, why the fear, why the conflict between those of differing floors, why make things difficult? She says it's because morons like their party exist. She says that the Eminence is full of people with the wisdom of generations behind them, but they still insist on choosing wrong.

Do they not think there's a reason she was put on top? Do they not realize she's the one that knows the mission of the people and that knows how best to go through with it? D'mere says that she's been hurting everyone, that she's made life hell for the majority of people in this tower! She then snaps back, asking them if they think she hasn't been hurting. She's had to look over this hole of a world and has worked tirelessly on extending the tower. All the while she has morons breathing down her neck and acting like they know how better to run this planet, like those guys without their guards are going to be anymore respectful of each other's needs.

Demiurge says that she can't talk about them like that. She's been primarily in control and has made sure everything's worse off. Solumn then declares that she doesn't want to hear anything he has to say. He's the reason everyone's holed up in here, he's the reason construction happened in the first place, he's the reason she has to be a leader! Demiurge says he's only done what the people of the world wanted, and Solumn declares that that's precisely what she's been getting at. Demiurge's been working towards satisfying the masses, and people like her are left to fix the consequences of his actions.

Demiurge pauses for a moment, and Solumn presses on, asking him if he knows anything about leadership, or if he only ever followed what the people wanted. Did he ever think about what actions would be more beneficial in the long run, or did he only ever listen to what ignorant nobodies thought would be best for them? Demiurge still gives pause, though Kensey steps forwards, saying that she can't act all high and mighty after everything she's done. Mont says she's only been building up her world because she can't see happiness in what they have, that they can make things happy here. Dandy says that they've seen the people that mean harm, and that they can repel them for the sake of everyone. Aun says that they can each learn to cooperate with each other and each become better than they were before. Andas says that she's fought so long and hard for control, she's never considered making things right for the people at large. D'mere says that they've lived long enough under the control of an unjust ruler, and that they will usurp her, one way or another!

By now, Solumn and the party made it to the central lift, the ferret's normally stoic expression instead portraying annoyance at them. She says that she'll be more than happy to tear their ignorant little ambitions to pieces. With that, the mech flicks out a wire that strikes at the nearby console, and the lift begins to raise. The lift raises, everyone realizes now, it's just between everyone on the platform. Each party member takes up their weapon, the mech behind Solumn takes an offensive stance, and the ferret grimaces, before pressing some more buttons and making the mech lunge forwards, initiating the fight.

Players are forced to fight '''World Leader Solumn''', her commanding her mech throughout the fight. Solumn herself doesn't boast much defense, though she is fairly agile. Whenever she acts, her mech performs the attacks, either using Smash or Stab attacks for physical attacks, dousing the party with Lightning, Cosmic, Fire, or Pure magic. She can also cast certain buffs on herself that makes it so that those that deal physical attacks to her will be dealt Lightning, Cosmic, Fire, or Pure damage. Players need to rely on accuracy, on steady restoration, on high damage, and they need to be careful. Players should also be weary, for when Solumn performs the defense command (signified by the mech curling around her defensively), she's about to cast a powerful multi-target spell on the party. They deal more and more damage to her, until eventually her health is dropped. 

She grunts and falls to her knees, panting and panting. D'mere asks if she's had enough, though Solumn refuses to answer her. However, the group feels the lift begin to slow down. They pause and look up, seeing the top of the tower. The lift comes to a stop, and everyone looks out, seeing they're miles upon miles upon miles away from the surface. They're on top of an in construction platform, looking to be halfway as large as the floors below. Other than that, the atmosphere outside is actually breathable, and they can see the more natural beauty up here, even past all of the scaffolding and the racks, cranes attached to them to lift and weld metal to form the floor.

She asks them if that look entices them. Is it not so much more serene than what they've been born with? This image is a mere shadow of the world they've been denied. Solumn's read tales of what the world looked like before everyone had to go into the Eminence. She says she could never imagine what the world before looked like, and only knows it's a mere fragment of what she looks at around here. She says that people like the party act like they know what they want, like they know better for their world than she would. But she looks around, and she sees a world that could've been, and she looks beneath her, and she sees the world the people wanted. She then looks pointedly at the Dragon, and says she saw the world Demiurge decided the people of old deserved.

Demiurge takes pause, though says that he messed up. He knows that no matter what, he can't take back what he's done, but that doesn't mean he won't work to make things right. He knows the people of the world deserve better than what Solumn has offered. And he knows that the people he's worked alongside know better than the people he walked alongside in the past. Solumn says that she and she alone knows how to make the tower, she knows she can bring the people of this world to a better one! Demiurge declares that it's not worth it anymore. Instead of making everyone suffere so they can keep this mistake running, he'll allow the world they live on to become a better place! He's going to do what he should've done ages ago!

With that, Solumn realizes that her vision is still refused. So, she presses some buttons on her cuffs, and the ladybug mech sputters oddly. It clenches up, and begins shifting. Chunks of metal shift from the ladybug-like frame down the arms and down the legs. Its back furls open into a pair of draconic wings, and the frame itself unfolds, taking on a more angular frame. The party watches on as the mech transforms more and more, soon adopting a long draconic neck, an angular draconic face, a long draconic tail... Soon, the group realized they were looking at a mechanical mirror image of Demiurge!

Solumn says that it's only fitting that the one that damned their world would be the one to destroy them! She presses another button, and the chest opens up, revealing its frame is large enough to allow Solumn inside. Andas grunts and goes to attack her with his chain, though she's quick to evade it and jump into the frame, it quickly shutting around her. The group hears her voice come out of the machine, her declaring "Assuming manual control... Assuming direct control... All limiters disengage". The machine moves in an uncomfortably organic way, it flexing its claws, flaring its tails, widening its wings, and gnashing its teeth. Solumn says he doesn't care about any of their platitudes, she doesn't care for a word that comes out of the Dragon's mouth! She destroyed the memory of him once, she'll destroy his memory a thousand times if she has to!

The party holds their weapons aloft, are more determined than ever, and go to battle the '''Tool of Damnation'''. The fight is far more complicated than the one preceding it. The Tool is split up into three targets: Head, Arms, and Body. Players need to take out the Body's HP to finish the fight. However, as long as the Arms are active, whenever an attack is performed on the body, the Arms will take the damage instead. They'll even block the Body from multi-target attacks. Players will have to take out the Arms before they can damage the Body, though one should realize the Arms and Head won't stay dead. The Body has a move, Repair, that restores a moderate amount of HP to the Head and Arms, regardless of if they're down or not.

Beyond that, there's the attack themselves to worry about. The Arms, Body, and Head each have their own speed, so players won't have to worry about four actions in a row (one for Arms, one for Head, two for Body), but they each have things to worry about. The Arms can deal Slash and Stab physical damage, and can conjure Cosmic and Lightning damage. The Head can deal Slash and Stab damage, and is able to conjure Fire and Pure, it can Debuff party members, and also has a skill (Consume) that allows it to take a party member out of the conflict for a few turns, or however long it takes to destroy the Head. The Body can deal Smash and Stab damage, it has its restorative magic, it has a multi-target Smash attack, it can conjure Earth, and it can buff its various body parts. It's a long fight that requires a lot of attention and planning from the player, but with enough time and effort, they should be able to take out the Body's health, and finish the Tool of Damnation.

After beating her, a cutscene shows the machine creaking and struggling to move, Demiurge standing before it defiantly. He digs his feet into the steel beneath, and begins to take a deep breath. His body begins to ignite with pure energy, starting at the core of his being and traveling up his throat. The Tool of Damnation looks on, and tries to stand upright, it curling its wings in front of it. The Dragon rears back, Pure magic billowing in its jaws, before he lunges forwards and hurls a beam of Pure magic. The Tool blocks it with its wings, though it is being pushed back a bit by the force.

Solumn struggles to hold her ground, gritting her teeth as she works the machine overtime to keep blocking. However, the plating around the wings slowly gets stripped away. Eventually, they're blown off and she's forced to take the attack on the chest, the machine lurching backwards and using any resources available to it to keep itself upright, it getting closer to the edge. Solumn grits her teeth as her machine tries to stomach the blow, eventually forced to bellow out a scream as the beam pierces harder and harder. Then, the beam of Pure energy pierces the chest and blows out through the mech's back, flying off to space as the machine is bested.

It slumps down, and explosions begin to ring out through the various parts of the mech. Solumn is hammering at the controls to do something, though they're failing. She starts to shout, declaring that she is the people's-! However, Demiurge is already rushing the machine, delivering a powerful ram to its body to send it hurtling off of the edge of the platform and down to the planet below, Solumn completing her shout, declaring that she is the people's future. Her voice fades as she falls lower and lower, before getting cut off as the mech explodes, it shaking the tower and causing some of the cranes to lose what they were holding, and even some get knocked off of the frames they're locked to.

The party pants and pants, a few approaching and looking over the edge, as if fearing that she might still have something. Mont asks in almost bewilderment if it's over... D'mere says that they've done all they can here. And it's time for them all to move to a better future.
----
Later, the group procures Solumn's building, and proceeds to interact with the various terminals. They have access to the security monitors and to the radios. They procure it, and the party seems a little uncertain about what they're about to do. D'mere says that they've gotten through the hardest part, haven't they? That seems to assure them, and so they go through. The monitors turn on, and they introduce themselves. They tell the people of the world that their fight is over. Solumn is gone, and no one has to worry about the execution of those in the Eminence. All free men are free to live free!

With that, they fiddle with the controls, and disable the money counter and the countdown. And then, they turn off the monitors, and Kensey says that now they'll find where she's kept the money, though how are they going to make sure it goes back to the right people? Mont says that that is a pickle, though right now she's feeling a bit too fired to really answer this question. They've secured the upper floors by now, so maybe they can answer it later, as long as they can keep those guards at bay.

Either way, money aside, they've done what they can do here. Right now, they should enjoy the free world, decide on what's to be done with the money, and relax.

;Febrar 2nd

By now, the group figures they've settled on a fair enough deal with the money: Take the people existing in the tower, evenly divide the money, and spread it among the various people. D'mere's men are working on that, and by now, the people are trying to relax. As they relax, though, there's a bit of uncertainty among the guys. Aun can't help but ask what now. Dandy says that Solumn's been building up the tower all this time. They can probably maintain living protocols on the Eminence in the meantime, they can also distribute the foods and other goods directly from the guard floors to the people, but the tower won't be built anymore.

Kensey says that that's fine. The thing's big enough, isn't it? Demiurge gives pause, though admits that mortal kind certainly has made its monument... He's also been noticing he's been getting a little tired as of late, though he doesn't bring that up. However, he does ask what each of them are going to do. Kensey will keep up his business, and Dandy will help Clance set up his shop. Demiurge notices that the two are holding hands. Mont says she'll keep up her shop, and will keep in touch with the people of the floor, maybe even get to know the other floors a little more. D'mere says that now that her mission's over, she's going to reconnect with her daughter, and try to live a normal friendship with her former allies, while overseeing the transference of money and the guard-horded resources. Aun says that she'll help the people on her floor get reacquainted with their pre-Jaunus 7th attack lives, and she'll try making more friends now that there's less societal pressure. Andas, meanwhile, is quiet.

Either way, it seems everyone has their own jobs now. And right now, Demiurge is satisfied not having to do much else.

;Febrar 3rd

Right now, the people are being redistributed weaponry they lost. Shop owners are given more dangerous weaponry than common citizens, just in case. Meanwhile, money's being gifted as closely to the proposed model as they can. And meanwhile, the various party members are enjoying their livelihood. Meanwhile, Demiurge still feels tired. As he walks around, an odd song comes down from above. The people of the Eminence are confused about it, though Demiurge himself recognizes the noise. That's his guardian's song, and it sounds to be coming from way up.

So, he takes the central lift, and takes the long ride up to the top.
----
The lift raises up and up, and soon makes it to the battlefield against Solumn. And up there, waiting for him he sees Sophia, singing. She sees the Dragon, and greets him, remarking that he's made a substantial change this era. Demiurge asks her what she's doing here. She says that given the recent happenings, she wanted to check on something. She asks the Dragon if he's feeling tired. Demiurge admits that he has been. She says that this is a normal sensation for a Dragon so young. He's been through such a tense time and has done a lot, his body's begging for rest. He'll likely enter a sleep like death and awaken 500 years late.

Demiurge is stunned by this. He says he's done so much already, is he really going to have to rest? Sophia says that it is inevitable, but for what it's worth, it sounds like the future should be in some good hands for now. Sophia asks him how tired he is, and he pauses, and then looks towards himself. He says he feels like he's going to fall at any moment. At this, Sophia tells him that if he wishes, he should check out those he cares for. Maybe tell them what'll happen. Demiurge curses himself, upset that he can't avoid this, but supposes he should do that much at least.
----
At this point, players can either Rest at the top of the tower, or go around the Eminence to communicate with various characters, from party members to prominent npcs.
*Kensey - Kensey seems to be handling himself well. He says that now that he doesn't have to worry as much about food as before, he's getting the chance to get some stuff. He's thinking of getting a pair of suits, maybe some rings, maybe a lot of alcohol. Speaking of... he asks Demiurge if he's gonna be busy anytime soon. The Dragon has to admit that he, unfortunately, has to rest. He won't be awake for a long time, and the rat's spirits drop a little. He remarks that he's done this much for him and he's just gonna sleep on them? Demiurge tries to explain what Sophia said, and Kensey begrudgingly admits that Demiurge's probably earned this. He just hopes for a "good luck" from him.
*Mont - The quetzal is at her hospital area, tending to a couple of victims. She says these guys tried to rob a shop each, though they didn't make it far before they got hurt. Aside from that, she's been keeping in contact with Lon, Goe, Percy, Goona, and the rest of the party. She's actually managed to make some friends on some of the other floor, and she's hoping to do something fun with them, now that they don't have to worry about satisfying Solumn. She offers Demiurge the chance to hang with them, though the Dragon gives the bad news. She's stunned and asks if he's serious. Unfortunately, he is. She says that she's sorry she didn't get to know him too terribly much before now, but she's grateful for what he has done for them.
*D'mere - The mantis seems to've moved out of her former apartment and is now moving things in to her family's place. She tells the Dragon that after all's said and done, she personally feels that she's owed a bit of a rest. Her little girl's actually proud of her, so now maybe she can make up for some lost time. As she talks, Molly's stepped out of the house, and sees the Dragon. She's amazed and rushes up, saying that he's so cool! She says that he has to come with her to the rest of her friends, though the Dragon speaks up. He says that he can't be up long, he has to rest, kind of like D'mere has to. The mantises seem saddened, though D'mere understands. She tells him that none of this would be possible without him, and she thanks him for everything.
*Dandy - Dandy's helping distribute food stuff from the guard floors to the various residential floors' shops. The guards seemed to've all fallen into place after they defeated Solumn, their members only needing to occasionally repel an attack. Anyways, he's keeping the food shops stocked, and he's going to make sure the foods grow well. Kensey's been really warm around him lately, and the other guys enjoyed hanging with him. At this point, Demiurge is forced to explain what is going on. Dandy seems to shrink away in worry. He says that he helped him become better, he got him out of a dark place, and now he's going to vanish? Demiurge says he can't help it, but he's sure they'll be safe. Dandy gives pause, though says he'll try and make do.
*Andas - Andas is at a dilapidated apartment. He sees the Dragon, and when Demiurge tries to ask him how he's doing, he says that nothing's happening. Solumn's gone, his son's gone, all that's left is to get rid of one more problem. Demiurge says he'd like to offer his help, but he'll be resting soon. Andas says he doesn't care what the Dragon does. To be frank, he doesn't need to do anything, Andas himself can handle this. Anyways, he wishes Demiurge luck with whatever he's gonna do. In the meantime, he's going to hope he can see his son again.
*Aun - Aun seems to be now standing alongside Lon and Goe in the distribution and in repelling the guards. She says that since D'mere retired, Aun herself has integrated harder into the rebel life style. Now she feels like things are on track to create a very hopeful community for eveeryone on this tower. She just wishes her old friend could've seen it... but she's sure they'd be happy. Demiurge is certain too. Aun supposes there should probably be some sort of celebration, everyone can be invited. However, Demiurge reveals that he won't be awake for long. When he explains his situation, Aun's saddened. She says that they just got their happy ending, he can't go. Demiurge says he can't help it, and Aun gives pause. She supposes if it can't be helped, she'll keep his memory alive. Demiurge thanks her.
----
Players can go to the uppermost floor and approach the area north of the central lift. Approaching, players are prompted to rest, though players are warned that doing this will mean they won't see this era again. Upon deciding to do so, Demiurge stretches his body out, before curling around himself to lay down. He feels his eyelids get heavier. He blinks a couple times, before groaning tiredly. With that, he goes limp and rests on top of the highest point of the world.

===Free Era===
;Febrar 4th

On this day, Demiurge groans and wakes up, him stretching his limbs out and extending his wings. As he does, he feels a few things get knocked over nearby. Curious, he glances around, and finds around him various pots full of flowers, stacks of fancy pots that didn't smash, and other such offerings. Demiurge was kind of surprised and sat up, seeing a shrine of intricate things around him. Besides that, the floor he's on seems untouched, as if it was frozen in time since that fight with Solumn.

He carefully steps over the various items of tribute and near the nearby lift. He interacts with the console, it comes up, and he descends, deciding to start with the monarch floor.
----
On his way down, he gets notices of those barracks he's seen those guards hang out in. They currently have a bunch of normal looking citizens in them. Demiurge notices that they aren't wearing those bodysuits anymore, but instead have articles of clothing on. Many of them hear the lift moving and look up, and he can hear the many of them gasp at the appearance of the Dragon. They then begin to cheer, excited to see the Dragon up and about. Demiurge gives them a wave as the lift brings him down more and more.

Soon, he arrives at the Monarch Floor, and finds the gaudy and extravagant dresses instead be a mix of various apparel. The lift stops on the floor, and Demiurge steps out curious. The many citizens on the flor approaches, surprised. Some of the crowd appears to've expected the Dragon to wake soon, but they didn't expect him to appear today. Demiurge greets them, and remarks that the people of the floor don't seem as rich as he remembered. A bat man in the crowd says that after the old shop system was dismantled, every shop was able to produce their goods without needing to rely on the other floors, so they didn't have as much money disparity, nor were the shopkeepers richer.

Demiurge asks for what else has gone on. What's life been like without Solumn's guards? A bear man nearby says that after Solumn's forces were cleared, security was sort of up to the commonfolk when the resistance finished up emptying Solumn's coffers. Since then, it's been a bit easier for bad people to do bad stuff, but no one's had to worry about being cast to the air outside, nor has anyone had to worry about going into the planet to make themselves a buck. A lizard lady says that since Solumn was beaten, further construction ended, so money's only had to circulate among the people rather than any ruling forces. 

Demiurge gets more curious, and decides he wants to check elsewhere for a moment. He thanks them for answering a few of his questions, and he'll be off. With that, he approaches a lift, and goes down to the Cockroach Floor.
----
Demiurge goes down. And as he goes down, he looks out across the various floors. Structure-wise they appear identical to the way they were before. However, the people on the floor are all dressed like people on the other floors. It was strange to Demiurge: he once saw a tower that split the people up by how well off they were. But now, they just looked like normal people, unabated by any fear of higher powers. They probably just had personal problems or merely problems with each other.

The lift eventually makes it to the Cockroach Floor, and Demiurge steps out. He looks around curious, and now that he's on one of the floors, he can actually see many memorials set up. These memorials show off many members of the resistance, though he sees his allies and himself more often, in either paintings or in little statues. And as he walks, he gets more greetings and more cheers, and waves at them. He checks out the streets more and more, actually feeling kind of surprised at how normal it feels to walk here as opposed to slink around fearful of any guards nearby.

He can't help but feel a little curious about one last thing, so he decides to go back to a lift, and goes up to the floor Solumn once occupied.
----
Once up there, he looks around, and now notices the building he'd overlooked several times. This floor has people on it, and also has the ruins that once were Solumn's building. The large structure was torn to pieces, blasted apart and left in chunks on the floor. He approaches the ruins, when one of the nearby guys approach, a calico cat lady asking him if he's curious about that stuff. Demiurge answers that he is, and the lady explains: The people back in the day realized that the mechanical stuff routed into her building were used to be able to manipulate the population. The window controls were just one of those things, but the security monitors helped to scare the common person, and when the last organized rulers split up, the radios weren't necessary. So as one last act, to make sure no harm can come to the people of the Eminence as a whole, this thing was destroyed.

Now, they live with what they've got, they try to make the most they can on this tower, and they try and enjoy it. She knows she shouldn't complain, it could be a whole lot worse. But, sometimes you can't help but think that everyone here's just biding their time, living in a stalemate. No one has the resources to build more for this world, and no one has the resources to fix the world outside... She asks the Dragon if it's wrong to think that they should die? Demiurge seems startled, and is tasked with either answering "Yes" or "No". To the former, she admits that it might be morbid, but to be honest, she's sort of thought of how there might not be much for them as a species to look forwards to, other than living the same lives from now on. To the latter, she's actually surprised, she admits that she felt guilty thinking such a thing, but it's nice to be vindicated. 

Either way, she says that it's not like anyone can really do anything about that one way or another. They'll live, and maybe they'll all find out something to do while they enjoy the spoils of efforts past.

She walks off, Demiurge looking a little shaken. And as he stands there, he hears that song again. Again, it's coming from the upper floor. So, he's quick to ride up to greet Sophia. Once up there, the Pale Dragon greets him. She explains that the Draconic Gardens are near, and she thinks that he should come. The view's much better up there. Besides, it's been too long since they got to enjoy each other's company. Demiurge looks down at the tower a bit concerned, though Sophia assures he's seen just what he needs to. For now, she has an important conversation with him.

So, with a heavy heart, Demiurge spreads his wings. And then, the two flap, up and off the planet, and off into space, towards the giant structure floating in space. The '''Draconic Gardens'''.

----
The two fly up and make it onto the lip of the grand platform. And where they stand, there's a pair of stone lounge chairs made big enough for the two of them, between them a small stone stool with goblets full of wine on either side. Sophia approaches one chair and recommends that Demiurge take the other seat. The bronze Dragon looked over the Gardens, feeling... overwhelmed. He thinks to himself how long ago he's been away from this realm, and how alien it all looks despite him growing up in it. Sophia somewhat impatiently taps the other lounge chair, rocking Demiurge free from his spell and prompting him to sit where she motioned.

Demiurge took steps towards it, and as he does, he feels off. He feels like these steps should be heavier or that he should have a bigger feeling than now, but he feels some slight dissociation. He walks more and more, before sitting back on the empty chair, now looking out at the planet he was just on. And for a bit, he can just stare, unaware of the slight slurping coming from Sophia as she's taken her goblet. She notices him staring, and remarks that it's quite a sight, that for as long as one remains on their planet, especially if they're young, it gets easy to lose the big picture.

She asks him if a part of him felt among them, or if he understood he was so much greater than them the whole time. Players can answer "I felt like one of them" or "I was divine, start and end". To the former, she says that that's also common in young ones, while saying that putting yourself among the lot of them makes it harder to see the bigger picture, because you limit yourself to the common. To the latter, she says that that's often been a hard part for young people: if they always consider themselves greater than the rest, then it'd be harder to care for the lot of them, because it becomes so much harder to empathize.

She then says that he can have a drink if he wishes, his body should be able to handle it. Demiurge seems suddenly aware of the goblet beside him, and so he reaches for it, before beginning to drink. The two drink more and more, before Sophia continues. She says that he probably realizes why he's here. He's gone through so much and worked through an era that could make or break their world. So, having gone through as much as he has, and now seeing what's become of it, she needs to ask: How does he feel about the world he's made? Demiurge gives pause, and lowers the goblet, him looking down at it in consideration, an unreadable expression on his face.

Players have the choice to say "...I love it" or "...I hate it". If he says the former, he begins to say it, and a smile begins to dress his face. He says that he's seen a lot of the bad things this world can bring it, but... but he knows that world can be good, he saw it. And, even with the pain brought on, it looks like everyone's finding something to be happy about. If he says the latter, he starts to talk, and tears begin to drip down his cheeks. He says that he got rid of the worst guys, and even after fixing everything, things were still ruined. He chokes a bit, struggling to hold the goblet, and hunches over as he sobs, Sophia gently clasping his back.

After that, she says that the first times are always the roughest for the dears. It's something that usually gets better the more you do it. You usually know how to rule better, you usually know how to roll with the tragedies, and you usually know how to pull others out of it or to restart elsewhere. Demiurge asks how anyone's supposed to get over tragedies, to which Sophia explains that all mortals are finite, all suffering on the planets will be finite, while the Dragons are infinite. That's one of those cases where you have to learn to either be empathetic, or to remember your own divinity. And then, she says that she has one more question for him.

Dragons can go from planet to planet, free to start and stop life as they wish, or to let it go on without any divinity. She also warns that, given his age, she won't be terribly necessary in watching over him, so her visits to him will come less and less. So, having seen everything he has, having done all he has, having endured as much as he has, she tells him that no one would begrudge him for leaving them. So, she must ask him: Does he wish to continue on their planet? There's a pregnant pause as Demiurge contemplates, him statue still as he looks at the planet he'd been on for hundreds of years. And so, the player has two options: "I want to stay" or "I want to leave".
*At the former, he decides that after everything, no matter how he feels, he should continue to see them on. If players say they love the world, he declares that he'd love to see them work through their terrible situation. If players say the hate the world, Demiurge says that he wants to make sure they stay safe. Sophia nods in understanding. As such, she stands up and says she understands. Demiurge stands up, and Sophia tells him to be careful and keep a broad mind. Demiurge suddenly goes forwards to hug her, Sophia hugging him back. Demiurge thanks her for everything, the pale Dragon holding him tight. They then split and share a moment of nothingness, before Demiurge steps near the lip of the Draconic Gardens. He raises his wings, and then flies, going back down to the planet he's led to the modern era, boasting more knowledge and a greater understanding than he once had.
*To the latter, he decides that he can't take anymore. If players say he loves the world, he decides they'd be better without him for a while. If players say he hates the world, after everything, he says he can't look at it anymore. Sophia says that that's perfectly fine. Sophia nods in understanding. He's free to relax on the Gardens for longer, and Demiurge brings his arms up, as if wanting to embrace her, and she hugs him. He hangs his head and Sophia walks into the Gardens, prompting Demiurge to follow. And she tells him not to worry, these things happen. Besides, the planet should live on well enough now. With that, Demiurge gives the planet one more look, before following Sophia into the gardens of paradise, resting quarters for divinity.

And with that, camera still on the planet, the credits roll.
==Art==
===Beginning===
;Jusis 12th

Demiurge walks forwards, rubbing his eyes a little. He walked and walked, and found himself looking at an odd little village. The buildings are made up of wood and built up into primarily cube-forms, each at most one story tall, save for one building towards the eastern edge of town. There stood an in construction building, it being round, the frame seemed to be three times as wide as the usual buildings, and the frame seemed to show the stairs leading up to a second floor that's not yet made. Furthermore, he could see splashes of color on the various buildings, some with even coatings and some with splatters all over them like someone set off a paint bomb.

Demiurge walked forwards more and more, soon arriving at the border, where he can see a few guys around, them in some tunics that appear to be styled into dresses and special dyes. Demiurge walks past the border, when several of the people notice him. One of them rushes up, a finch guy with peach feathers wearing a green tunic, curious about the stranger. He says that Demiurge doesn't look like anyone from '''Origlo''', and asks what group he was traveling with. Demiurge asks what he means about group, to which the finch is only more curious. 

As he ponders, he the finch's eyes widen as he realizes who he's talking to. He says he didn't recognize him at first, but he looks just like one of the guys from the old intelligentsia painting. Demiurge's eyes widen, and he asks if that drawing has Gidere, Deonsys, Arrivar, Rugar, and Meila. The finch exclaims that that's it! He asks if Demiurge is, in fact, the Dragon, to which Demiurge assures he is. He greets himself as Demiurge, and the finch introduces himself as '''Bonde'''. 

Demiurge asks if he can check out the painting, to which Bonde says he can. Though, if the Dragon really is back, then Bonde says that the chief'll want to see him. He says to go towards the round building to the east. Construction isn't currently in progress, though he recommends that he stays safe when he approaches. In the meantime, he'll look for the chief. Demiurge thanks him, and goes towards the building itself. It looks like the frame and flooring's pretty solid, though there are holes in the patches.

He steps in close, and finds the first room to be some sort of lobby, it square-like like those houses outside, while boasting large doors for inside the rest, and twin sets of stairs leading upwards. He can also notice a pair of doors adjacent to this room. Meanwhile, in the middle of the lobby is some sort of display case, a pedestal with a square base and glass covering a painting. The painting itself depicts the five familiar faces Demiurge'd seen, them stylized in a stick-like fashion. Additionally, they appear to be drawn with Demiurge's own form, his wings wrapping around the group comfortingly. 

As he watched, he'd hear the door behind open. Curious, he turns to face them, expecting the chief and Bonde, but instead sees a short parrot woman with green feathers, and a blue-dyed tunic. She also has streaks of various paints across her dress, and a set of brushes at her hips. She sees the Dragon, and admits that she kind of followed. Demiurge greets her and asks what brings her here, to which she replies that she's kind of a big fan, and she's especially thankful at him arriving here. She apologizes that it hasn't been built up as much as of yet.

Demiurge asks what this is, to which the parrot explains that this building is going to be where a lot of art pieces are going to be. Arrivar was able to keep his piece up here without it being weathered or tampered, so seeing that, they figured that they each should follow suit. So, they've begun working on this building and have been working to find where to put the stuff. Other people are going to be making their pieces, so the group wanted to set this piece up for everybody. She herself actually suggested it.

She awkwardly realizes she's kind of not introduced herself. She says she's Mimzy, and Demiurge introduces himself. The parrot says that they're currently working on the building, though they need plenty more chunks of wood, and they need to get to know the talents a little more. Demiurge said that some guys, Bonde, said he should talk to the chief, to which Mimzy says that makes sense. He's a new guy, and they need to properly document him and stuff. Though they're sure to treat him well when they realize he's the Dragon. 

He'll probably expect him to do something for town, considering he's the Dragon and all. Demiurge supposes that makes sense, and says he'd like to help out. Mimzy then says that she thinks she could join along. Demiurge says he could use some help he's sure. Soon, Bonde arrives, and he tells the Dragon that he's ready to lead him to the chief. With that, Demiurge and Mimzy leave the building and follow the finch.
----
The duo approach, soon arriving at a building that looked the same size of the others, though the doorframe has paintings of peacock feathers arranged around it. The duo goes through the door, and inside find a pair of spear-wielding guards, and behind them is a woman at a desk. She's a poodle lady with a feral ferret wrapping around their neck like a boa. She sees the Dragon, and is excited to see him. She says that she's never heard tell of someone returning from the dead, and asks how he did it. Demiurge says that that's kind of a thing Dragons do. 

The poodle seems surprised, asking "Dragons? Plural?" Demiurge says that he's one of many Dragons, and one sent to help guide this planet. The poodle seems surprised at the idea of more Dragons. She says that it'd be great to learn more, before introducing herself as '''Chief Dina'''. Demiurge introduces himself, and introduces Mimzy, who sheepishly cowers behind the Dragon. Dina assures she knows Mimzy, and says it's great they've made a partnership already. Her little project could use the guidance of someone like Demiurge she's sure. 

Mimzy thanks the Dragon again, and Demiurge nods in approval. Either way, Dina says that she'll see to interviewing the Dragon from time to time. And when she herself isn't bossing the Dragon around, Mimzy will be sure to provide him some help. Mimzy is grateful, and thus the duo begins to live while the poodle starts to write up potential questions.
----
The group starts to walk out, Mimzy looking out to see that construction's resumed on the main building. She says that Demiurge should probably bunk with her for now. She begins walking through town and offers for him to follow.

As they walk through town, the duo hears powerful whinnying and clopping. The duo turns to face, and finds a duo of horses rushing towards them, them frantic and rampaging. Mimzy's shocked at the appearance, and Demiurge says that they need to stop it. He tells Mimzy to be careful, and the Dragon and parrot are thrust into a fight with the '''Rampaging Horses'''. The duo are fairly tanky, though fortunately easy to evade. Unfortunately, they seem able to resist physical strikes. However, Mimzy has skills that can make the horses instead take Normal damage from Slash, Stab, or Smash damage.

With their combined efforts, Mimzy creating gaps in the enemies' defenses and Demiurge going in for the strike, the horses are taken down, each exhausted and flopping on their sides. The two party members sigh and pocket their weaponry, when a pair of people rush in frantically. They see the ferals knocked down, and sigh in relief. They apologize, they were off having a snack, when they heard the horses go into a frenzy. They tried to rush in to assist, but it looks like the duo got it handled. Mimzy says it's alright, nobody got hurt. 

Either way, they'll bring the horses back, and they'll have to keep a closer eye on them tomorrow, just in case, y'know? With that, they walk off, and Mimzy remarks that that's unusual. She wonders what could've spooked those ferals so badly. Either way, that's probably a question they should contend with tomorrow, for now, she should show him home, and prepare tomorrow. With that, they keep on walking.
----
The duo makes it to Mimzy's home, and he can see the building with what looks like a little scene painted across the walls, depicting a group of people being led by a familiar five. Demiurge asks why all of the houses seem to have their own decorations, to which Mimzy explains that everyone makes their own art around here. They've had a few cases where they had to paint over inappropriate paintings, but the freedom of expression has been a boon around here.

The duo steps in as Demiurge asks what if someone else gets a house someone owned, to which Mimzy says that that art would probably get painted over. Though that's not always a bad thing, because people usually put stuff they don't want lost on special frames, and they hopefully manage to get it into the building they'll be making. So, hopefully they make something really cool for everyone to remember them by. Demiurge asks Mimzy what she wishes to make, to which the parrot says that the building ''is'' her art piece. One day that's going to become a grand beacon that houses all sorts of pieces of expression, and her name's going to be attached to it. Just the thought that someone will look at it and think of her makes her heart flutter, and she can only imagine Arrivar thinks the same thing. Demiurge says that he indeed did...

Either way, Mimzy says that if they're going to see that future, they need to get ready bright and early tomorrow. She wants Demiurge to meet a very proficient model, they've helped with a few guys' pieces. Demiurge says that sounds great, and with that, the duo decides that it's late enough, and it's time to rest.

;Jusis 13th

On this day, the two wake up. Mimzy says that now would be a good time to look for that model. She says that they're a close friend, and they're quite popular among the art groups. Demiurge brings up that he thought she'd been talking about multiple people, but it sounds like she's talking about one guy? Mimzy clarifies that the model kind of goes be either, depending on their feelings. One day they like to be manly, one day they like to be feminine, either way they prefer to be called "they". Demiurge says he knows a few guys back at her home that're like that, he almost didn't expect to meet a mortal like it. Mimzy says that they're really helpful, and either way, their fluidity proves quite useful depending on the artists' vision. 

She's packed up her painting supplies, and now she says they should get moving.
----
The duo begins moving, their goal being towards the south end of the village. They walk and walk, but as they do, they hear some very angry noises nearby. Mimzy wonders what that is, and the duo approach. There, they find those two stable guys from yesterday, the guys that collected the horses after they went crazy. The stable guys are dragging some dog half their size away. The dog is wearing a loud and red tunic and has a baton in one hand, said dog being of a labrador. The stable hands toss him, declaring that that's what he gets for scaring the horses!

He climbs up on his feet, and he shakes his fist at the returning stable hands, the dog declaring that his golden voice cannot be silenced! The stable hands say that if his golden voice pops up near their home again, they'll break his wind pipe! The dog sighs and goes to turn, when he notices Mimzy and Demiurge. He asks them if they saw that, the parrot assuring that they did. The dog sighs in defeat and says that he'd been trying to practice his voice, but it seems like every time he's practiced someone in a house is ready to complain. He figured he'd be safe over here, but it seems like the ferals were scared by him. 

Mimzy says that that's unfortunate, but he can't really be disturbing the peace. But the dog swears that his voice needs to be heard, that he needs everyone to remember what he sings. Demiurge and Mimzy share a peek at each other, Demiurge suggesting that they are working on preserving art. Mimzy knows, but preserving a voice? Either way, Mimzy apologizes to the dog, asking him his name. The dog introduces himself as '''Tsoa''', and he likes to sing. Mimzy thanks him for the introduction, and introduces herself. Demiurge introduces himself, and Tsoa remarks that the two of them sound pretty famous, one's developing that art storage place, and one's... he asks if he really is the Dragon that led the initial intelligentsia. Demiurge swears he is, and Mimzy says that the chief'll be talking to him later, but for now, the two of them have business. 

With that, they both walk, the dog feeling a little hurt. However, realizing he has limited singing options, he decides to walk in from a close distance, hoping to prove himself.
----
The group goes south and south more, and approaches a building. There, Mimzy knocks on the door, asking for "'''Beau'''". There's no response, and she knocks again. She asks for her name again, and again, no response. Demiurge asks whether or not they could be out already. Mimzy says that they were out late last night, they were supposed to sleep in today. Demiurge asks if they came back, and Mimzy admits that she never really checked. She was too busy with the chief and with Demiurge... She says that they should go to one of the group guilds and see whether or not they arrived. 

They arrive at one and Mimzy checks out some of the arrival times. She sees the group Beau went with, before furrowing her brow. She says that they haven't arrived. She then looks towards where they went, and says that they need to move fast. They went towards the forest. She looks down the trail that Demiurge went along. She says she doesn't know what happened, but they could be in trouble. They have to go and help them!

With that, the party rushes!
----
The duo heads along the trail towards where Demiurge'd previously woken up. As they walk, Mimzy asks the Dragon if he'd seen anyone along here when he passed through previously. However, Demiurge says that he woke up there, so he didn't really see anyone. Mimzy's confused at that suggestion, though she supposes they don't have much time to worry about that. So, they keep on moving forwards, the parrot saying that if they look for a picturesque setting, then they might be near the art group. However, as they walk, they can hear some odd noises from the brush nearby.

They both look in confusion, and begin to hear growling. Hearing that, Mimzy reaches for her brushes in concern. Then, out comes a pair of feral bears, each growling as they approach. Seeing them, Mimzy says they're in trouble, and they both take up a defensive pose. Demiurge says it looks like they have no choice, and so the duo of bears rush in threatingly, forcing them to act. The initial fight proves quite tricky. Mimzy doesn't have any options for elemental damage, and the enemies are fairly high health, which makes Mimzy's powers a bit underwhelming. 

After a couple turns, the duo are panting and panting, feeling overwhelmed. Mimzy says that this is too much, that they can't beat them. The bears approach with murderous intent, and Demiurge tells her to watch out. As the bear raises a claw, a strangely soothing sound comes out, the noise lowering the bears' aggression. Demiurge and Mimzy looks towards the source, where they find Tsoa approaching, the dog singing that calming noise. He stands beside either party member, and remarks that it looks like music soothed this beast. The bears then shake off the momentary haze, and each now seem ready to attack. Mimzy says that it didn't soothe them long enough, though the dog assures that now he's more than willing to lend a hand. 

Now, players fight with Mimzy and Tsoa. Tsoa proves to be quite useful in this particular fight. He has magic that Heals party members, that Buffs defenses, and even magic that has a chance of inflicting Charm. Not only does this make it so the party can have more longevity against the two enemies, but they can also make it so the enemies might not actually attack. With the dog's assistance, the group proves able to overwhelm the ferals, who, having been dealt a dangerous blow, each rush away from the scene, leaving the party alone.

With that, the group sheathes their weaponry. Mimzy says that she admits that her initial impression of the dog wasn't that great way back when. But truth be told, his power was quite useful in that moment. Tsoa assures that his voice is really useful, and that he should be preserved. Mimzy gives pause, though says that in all honesty, she cannot imagine how she can preserve a voice. However, she says that as long as he remains helpful, she'll be sure to find something out. Tsoa says that that sounds splendid, and that he'll do anything in his power to impress.

Either way, Mimzy says that they now have another ally, and that the forest should be more survivable now. She tells the Dragon that they need to look for Beau, and find them asap.

;Jusis 13th - Jusis 22nd

With this, the mission is decided. Go through the newly dubbed '''Ancient Forest''', search the various scenic scenes for any signs of art groups, and attempt to find them.

Through this, players have several branches to go down. Either branch they go through ends in one of several scenic scenes, which players are tasked with investigating for any signs of Beau.
*'''Fish Pond''' - Following the end of a river in the forest is a pretty scene. Down a cliff-face, the river runs down into a pond half the size of a baseball field, said field dotted with stones jutting out, as well as patches of shallow water made thanks to bundles of stone. Furthermore, throughout the clean water, one can see many pretty fish swimming around, making for a pretty scene for those looking on, especially when the sunlight hits just right. '''If players found the path'd led to the river from Sunray River, they'd find signs of something moving from the pond to elsewhere'''
*'''Gnarled Maple''' - The group finds a hill with a fancy tree on it. Said tree has a base that branches into a pair of thick branches, which then extend upwards. Said thick branches each have their own branches, each lifting up and up and even branching into thicker branches that themselves have their own branches. The twisting branches lift up to about 15 feet, and they brandish fancy maple leaves, which seem to let the sunlight shine in in fractured rays. Investigating, Mimzy says she doesn't see any signs of anyone.
*'''Flower Field''' - The party finds a patch of the forest where the canopy spreads to let a lot of light in. Down here is a patch of land almost alien to the rest of the forest, looking to have several large flowers sprouted from the soil. Many varying sizes, many varying colors, many of the buds raised to about head-high for the average adult. It looks almost as if this scene was specifically designed to be a backdrop for an art piece. Investigating, Mimzy gasps, saying that she sees recent footprints, and they look like their group! '''Finding this, the group has a new piece of evidence, and are tasked with following the footprints'''
*'''Sunray River''' - Partway up the river path, the group notices the way the sun lays on the river, a ray of light peering through the canopy and seeming to light up the water. It's almost as if the river here is blessed as it runs along the rock-bordered channel. Furthermore, as opposed to the rougher sounds usually populating the route, the way the river sounds here seems more calm and serene. '''If players found the footprints from the Flower Field, they'll find them here, and find it goes towards the river'''
*'''Largest Tree''' - Near the other end of the forest, players find a tree that's far higher than any other tree, stretching far past the canopy. Its base appears to be thicker than any building, being a few dozen feet thick in diameter. Its branches stretch above the canopy, and the shade creates an opening in said canopy. Apparently, occasionally the leaves come down in such a way to create an amazing appearance for those that pose before it. Investigating the scene, Mimzy doesn't find anything.


After finding the scene in the Fish Pond, Mimzy thinks she's found the route, and now they can probably find Beau. So now, players have an actual route to follow through the Ancient Forest.

The trail they've gathered seems fresh, as if newly made. Following this trail leads them over towards the Largest Tree. They rush there, and can see many people have climbed up the tree, while the group sees a bizarre creature at the base of the tree. Demiurge himself recognizes it, seeing the creature that'd chased the art group up the tree as a Raptor, though this one appears to be radiating with wind magic. Tosa can't help but ask what a Monster is doing on the main trail of the forest, while Mimzy looks throughout the tree. Then, she settles on one individual and points them out. 

Up among some of the low hanging branches is a jaguar, easily twice as tall as either party member. They're wearing a tunic that has its sleeves and bottom side rolled up to show off the biceps and calves a little. They also have strapped on their back what looks like a stone carving of a sword. Mimzy declares that that's Beau! They have to do something! Tsoa, however, declares that they can't just stand up against a Monster. However, Demiurge speaks up. He says he dealt with these things before, they always relied on pack tactics. This thing either's lost its group, or they're lying in wait somewhere. Mimzy says that it wouldn't make sense for the rest of its pack to just be waiting, surely they would've cornered the art pack before they got here...

Either way, they say that they have to fight! Demiurge says he's more than willing to help this group, and thus goes to fight. The trio rush in, the jaguar noticing them and seeming concerned. She warns that this thing's dangerous, and Demiurge assures that they know what they're doing. Mimzy's quick to slash, Tsoa gives a sharp jab, and Demiurge strikes with his claws. The raptor stumbles in alarm before turning and facing them. It growls and gives a few bawks of frustration, before snarling and expelling a blast of wind that repels the group. They each skid to a halt and the creature brandishes its claws threateningly. Beau, meanwhile, decides they can't just watch, and release their grip. The raptor's about to strike, but Beau slams the edge of the stone sword on its head, stunning it. They then vault off of it to join with the rest of the group, the raptor nursing its bump.

With the new party member, the raptor growls an goes on the offensive, and players are forced to battle the '''Wind Raptor'''. The Wind Raptor isn't too tricky, it being an early boss. It relies on Slashing and Wind damage, though has the ability to boost its accuracy/evasion. Meanwhile, players should be able to reduce its weakness to Wind damage so that Tsoa can deal decent damage. However, the team player here is Beau. The jaguar wields the unique ability to maintain a singular raised stat (raised Attack, raised M Attack, raised Defense, raised Evasion/Accuracy, raised Crit) depending on what Stance players have them select under their skills. For this fight they can improve their Attack/Defense, and they have access to a pretty tough Smash attack. With their combined forces, the group should be able to defeat the Wind Raptor, who collapses upon the ground.

With the creature down, the people up in the tree seem to realize that the danger's passed, and they carefully lower themselves, a few having to help others. Meanwhile, the party sighs in relief and sheathes their weaponry, before Beau turns to the party. She thanks Mimzy dearly, saying that they don't want to think about what would've happened if their group was any later. Mimzy swears that it's great, though she's shocked to see that creature's made it out so close to Origlo. Beau says that they hadn't expected this either. The painters had them pose before the Sunray river, when that Monster appeared. They were chased down the river and were originally going to rush to the village, but the creature made it to the entrance before they did, and chased them until they got to the Largest Tree. 

Mimzy remarks that that is ''really'' close... She says this'll have to be brought up with the chief asap. For now, though, the painting group should report back to the guild, make sure they're properly accommodated for. Beau agrees, and thanks them again, before focusing on the Dragon. They say that they've never seen someone like him before, to which Demiurge says he's new. Mimzy says that he's the Dragon that originally helped the old intelligentsia. Hearing that, Beau perks up. They say that Demiurge should be really popular around here. They guarantee that people'll be asking him to model for them, to which Demiurge requests that it be done away from the forest.

Either way, the group returns from the Ancient Forest, successful.

;Jusis 23rd

Since Beau and group were rescued, they've been relaxing. Beau hasn't been up for modeling gigs for a while, and Dina had been informed of the Monster business. Dina seems to've been consulting on how to deal with this, but despite this, she wishes to converse with Demiurge. So, on this day, the Dragon goes to the building he'd seen before, and enters, finding the poodle flanked by her guards within. She says that she's glad he could come when he did, she has many questions for him. 

So, he sits down in front of her, and the lady brings up a slip of paper, alongside a case full of calligraphy brushes. She dips one of the smaller brushes, and starts by asking him about what he's done since the fight with the Lord of the Land. At that, Demiurge answers that he's been asleep. Dina asks if that's it, and Demiurge assures so. Dragons apparently rest when dealt fatal blows, and he'd been dealt a fatal blow back then. Dina furrows a brow and jots down some info.

She asks him if he was born on this world, though Demiurge answers no. He was born up in the Draconic Gardens, a beauteous city that floats through the astral sea. Other Dragons live on it, and he's known quite a few that've flown from the Gardens and out into the void before creating planets that other life would flourish on. Demiurge's guardian prepared one for him, and then he flew onto it. Hearing the word "guardian", Dina perks up. She asks what he means by guardian, and if something happened to his parents. Demiurge answers that the kids' parents would often be off to another planet doing some business, so they'd often be overlooked by delegated guardians. For him, it was a pale Dragoness named '''Sophia'''. He describes her as a very warm yet, on occasion, kinda scary. 

She then hands the Dragon a separate brush and sheet of paper, and asks if he can possibly draw out the land and this guardian as he remembered. Demiurge warns that he isn't too great an artist, though Dina assures that no one starts a great artist. Demiurge supposes that makes sense, and carefully takes the brush. She asks him to try and paint a scene he remembers, something showing off the architecture and the guardian in question. With that, Demiurge closes his eyes and thinks back, him feeling a slight sense of longing as he thinks back. Then, he opens up his eyes and begins to draw. 

Dina watches on intent, focusing as she watches. Demiurge draws more and more, and after several awkward minutes of silence, Demiurge sighs and pulls away, carefully placing the brush down. The duo look down; Demiurge drew the architecture of the residential buildings at home, them resembling a half sphere with windows and doors out front. The design also shows a street that curls around to either side, and goes off to the edge of the Gardens, now brandishing more square-ish buildings, as well as the long view of space with planets around it. There were even Dragons in the scene alongside Sophia, albeit the Dragons appear a bit too angular/stick-like for normal proportions. 

Dina says that she'll have to preserve this. Demiurge says that it isn't really worth it, though the poodle assures that anything from the Dragon is worth keeping. Either way, she's gathered a nice amount of info, and about now, she feels she should take some time to consider more questions... Among... other things... Demiurge asks if she's ok, though she assures that she's just got a lot to think about now knowing about other Dragons and worlds.

With that, Demiurge is allowed back to Mimzy's.
----
Demiurge is on his way back to Mimzy's. As he walks, though, he notices Beau. They wore their shorter tunic back in the Ancient Woods, but now after resting, they're currently wearing a longer and more conservative tunic. It goes down past their calves, and the sleeves go to their shoulders.. Demiurge approaches them and asks them how they're doing. Beau greets the Dragon and says they're doing fine. They needed to sit down for a little while, but now they feel comfortable enough to walk around town.

Demiurge says he's just gotten out of Dina's place, and he's going home. Beau says that sounds nice. Mimzy's been visiting since they've been relaxing, and it sounds like she's probably gonna want to work on some pieces soon for the Dragon. So while Dina works on that Monster thing, they might be seeing new art pieces soon. Demiurge says that sounds neat and also kinda taxing. Beau shrugs and says it takes a bit more willpower than you might expect. Long as they get involved, Beau promises to help the Dragon out.

Demiurge thanks them for that, and asks that they take care. Beau says they know they're limits. Either way, the two part, Beau waving him goodbye.
===Medium===
Demiurge makes it home, where Mimzy is seen organizing various paints and brushes, her having used some water magic to cleanse said brushes. She sees the Dragon, and greets him. Demiurge says that Beau said they'll be modeling soon, to which she replies that that's true. Soon, they'll be making some history together, and she expects the future to look back at this fondly. Demiurge says he's excited to start, and the parrot says she is too. Which is why she wants them to sleep early and wake up early.

;Jusis 24th

On this day, Mimzy rouses Demiurge up. The Dragon groans and wakes up, wondering what time it is. The parrot says that it's a few hours before dawn, and now's a good chance to get some modeling done! Demiurge groans and climbs up onto his butt, saying he needs to sleep a little longer, though the parrot says they need to move. They don't have a lot of time before Beau puts herself out there for the day, so they need to make the most of it.

Either way, the parrot's pushing the Dragon, albeit a little antsy as she did. She pushed him more and more, and the two were moving, currently towards the Ancient Woods. Demiurge asks if this is ok, though Mimzy says that the guards have been patrolling the area, and haven't noticed any signs of those Monsters as of late. They probably have a decent amount of time to make some arts, and Beau seems brave enough to pose for scenes based off what they'd been through. Demiurge remarks that that sounds unusual, though Mimzy assures that Beau's a really strong person.

Either way, the duo makes it to the forest, unaware of Tsoa following behind. They make it to the entrance, when they notice the dog approaching. Mimzy says that it's better to ignore him, so they'll keep on moving for now. They press on in, and approach the tree the previous fight took place in, now seeing the raptor reduced to bones. And beside it is Beau, currently in that outfit that shows off their muscles. They see the group, and greet them. Demiurge asks if they're really ok with this, and Beau assures they are.

With that, she supposes that the skeleton should be a fine enough piece for referencing the raptor, so Mimzy asks Demiurge and Beau to stand over near it. With that, they do so, Beau bringing out that model sword she'd been holding. They stand near it, and takes an offensive stance, them holding the hilt near their chest while pointing the tip at the skeleton. Demiurge takes a bit to read their pose, before standing beside them, and trying to assume his own offensive stance. Tsoa similarly poses. Mimzy, meanwhile, sets up a canvas and positions herself just right, positioning her such that the skeleton, Demiurge, and Beau are posed dynamically.

Demiurge asks if Mimzy should be involved, to which the parrot replies that she'll get that dealt with later. As long as she gets this shot just right, she think she should be able to present the piece to someone who can then insert her into the scene. Either way, she works and works. Demiurge, meanwhile, tries to stand. However, he feels the time dragging on. It's as if every minute is slowed down. He tries to drop his pose, though Beau speaks up, saying he has to keep himself right. Demiurge perks up, though he's still struggling. Eventually, Demiurge complains that it's too long for him, and he breaks from the pose, darting off scene and trying to stretch out his stiff limbs and give them some proper motion.

Mimzy puts her supplies down and sighs, saying she was partway through the sketch. Demiurge asks what she means, to which she turns the canvas around. Instead of paint on it, there're sketches on it, depicting the tree itself, as well as very simplified versions of either part of the fight. Lines represent the body and limbs, while circles represent the joints and heads. It seemed like they were partway through the process, the raptor partially completed, as well as Demiurge and Beau missing half of their upper half. 

Demiurge asks why she drew them like that, to which she replies that it's part of the painting process. Helps to make sure she gets the "skeleton" in place before she adds the "meat", makes sure everything's properly proportioned. She asks if Demiurge is really this antsy about standing still for a few hours, and Demiurge tests his limbs a little. He says that he's not sure how much longer he can just stand like that, least of all with a dead guy in front of him instead of an enemy. At that, Mimzy furrows her brow and strokes her chin. 

She says that if Demiurge is going to be like that, then maybe he and Beau need to spend some personal time together. They might be able to teach him a bit about keeping his poise and whatnot. She also comments towards Tsoa that he did really good posing despite not being a prolific model. The dog admits that singing at a steady tone actually requires a fair bit more stillness than one might think. Too much movement and the voice ends up distorted and warped. 

Either way, the group decides to take a break from their artistry for the day. Instead, Demiurge and Beau decide to travel home together while Mimzy makes sure all of her supplies are stocked up, and she collects the raptor bones so she can try and get familiar with the proportions and poses of the creature they'd only briefly seen. 
----
Demiurge and Beau make it to the houses, and approach the jaguar's house. Their house seems to depict various depictions of said model, brandishing them in various different clothing styles and with various different weaponry. Demiurge asks if Beau did this, though they answer they're not a painter. Sometimes they have fans come by to "advertise" to them. Either way, the two of them are going to have a long day. They themselves are going to go get some food and water, and Demiurge can make himself at home. Demiurge thanks them, and the two part, Beau heading into town while Demiurge opens the door. Inside, he finds a two-floored building, the upper building seeming to be a bedroom, and the lower building trying to be a living room/dining room area, with a big table in one corner, and empty space in the other.

He enters and waits, and the jaguar eventually returns with buckets of water in one hand, and a box of foods under her free arm. She says that they'll be working on poses, they'll have lunch, then they'll keep working, and then they'll release him. Demiurge asks if they really need hours to work on posing, to which Beau replies that they know personally how much work that requires. She heads over to the table and sets the stuff down. Then, she brings him over to the corner, and they ask him to first stand at attention. Demiurge seems confused, though stands straight.

Beau looks on curious, and she clarifies. She says that sometimes modelers will be asked to keep their limbs splayed far out so that observers can get a good look at all parts of the model. So, she suggests that he spreads his legs a little, point his tail as far towards his six, wings lifted, arms spread away from his sides. Demiurge tries to follow, and seeing that, the jaguar asks that he maintain his position. If he's to learn to keep his poise, he needs to learn to keep up this position. Demiurge says that it feels a little uncomfortable, though Beau warns that it only gets worse.

For now, they keep on keeping on, Demiurge keeping the pose, his limbs not resting, though not quite at the comfortable level of tension. He's seen shaking a few times and shuddering, though Beau can be seen physically pushing his limbs in place to keep him aloft. They're seen taking a quick lunch and water break, before continuing. After a bit more of that, Beau remarks that they've probably kept him long enough. They say that, for a first timer, Demiurge didn't do too badly. Once the at rest pose is down pact, they should be able to comfortably move onto other poses. 

Demiurge groans and says that he's looking forwards to it. Beau says that he should have a more open mind: his elegance and beauty is sure to be captured for centuries to come. Demiurge supposes that's true, and says he'll be going to Mimzy. The jaguar agrees and says they'll see him tomorrow. With that, Demiurge goes to Mimzy's, and quickly collapses onto the nearest bed, not remarking on the fact that Mimzy's appeared to've been in the process of reconstructing the skeleton of the raptor they'd fought earlier. And Mimzy will work on it throughout the night rather than sleep, soon making drawings of it.

;Jusis 25th - Jusis 27th

The process repeats, Demiurge training with Beau and struggling. However, the longer he goes on, the more used to it he gets. So eventually, he's able to pose at the Largest Tree long enough for Mimzy to sketch out an outline, producing the "skeleton" of the oncoming art. This is accomplished on the 27th, and Mimzy thanks them for this. She says that this is a good start, and Demiurge remarks that he feels proud for accomplishing this.

Mimzy says that he's done really good, and that she's very thankful to've modeled a creature like him. Demiurge blushes and thanks her, though Beau brings up that it isn't quite over. Tsoa affirms that there's still the matter of the meat on the "skeleton" to worry about. Mimzy admits that there is that to worry about, so they'll still have to work on this. For now, though, she's glad to see all this work paying off. She thought she'd try and create a multi-view ref of the models. Beau's got plenty to themself, and she's been able to work a few for that raptor. And once they make more progress on this art piece, she'll be more than happy to create a ref sheet for Demiurge. 

Demiurge supposes he's dealt with one session of posing, so he's sure he can go through another. With that, the party returns from the Ancient Forest and heads towards town.
----
The group makes it past the border, and split. They begin heading towards Mimzy's house, when Demiurge notices something strange. On one of the houses, he sees someone drawing a very odd scene, one depicting not solid figures or a historical event or anything like that. Rather, it appears to be a whirlpool of colors of varying shades, swirling, painted against the side of the house while bubbles of other colors seem to be hovering around the epicenter of this vortex of paint. 

Demiurge approaches curious, and notices some odd fox boy with several buckets of paint near him, him utilizing various ropes and pulleys to lift him and a platform of his paint around so that he can get at various points. Demiurge asks Mimzy what's the deal with this art piece, to which she asks what he means. Demiurge clarifies that he doesn't see signs of any people in it, it doesn't look like anything that could happen in history, it doesn't even look like an actual structure in the world. Mimzy explains that that's something more surrealist. 

There are some people that, as opposed to depicting scenes that have happened, reach into the more fantastical and create fictitious scenarios. And then there are some that go far into the deep end, depicting fantastical scenes that stand without context or story or any of that. Instead, pieces like this act purely as expressions of the painter's deepest thoughts. There are some that don't pay attention to it, though some that view it as mesmerizing and often stare. Mimzy herself doesn't really care for it, but it is ultimately a form of expression just as any other. 

Demiurge can't help but find himself interested in it. Especially if it means less posing on his part... Either way, Mimzy's starting to walk, and Demiurge decides to follow suit. They walk, and turn in for the day.

;Jusis 28th

The group's about to go out for more posing, Beau in their muscle-accentuating outfit right now. As they're about to head out, however, a few of the guards seen at the chief's place show up. They tell the group that their assistance is needed. Mimzy asks what Dina needs them for. Surely the guards can handle whatever they could? However, the guards describe that this is another matter of Monsters, and that, seeing as their group had felled the previous ones, they might be their best bet. Tsoa remarks that songs shall be made from this fight, and the guards nod before saying that they'll offer any aid they can.

They tell them that the Monsters were spotted in the direction of the '''Wild Plains''', dangerously close to their city. With that, the party is required to follow the guards out.
----
The guards lead them east of camp, towards a flat plain that has various ferals roaming, thick patches of forestry dotting the landscape. However, what should be a calm area is instead in a bit of disarray, various ferals displaced from their usual spots and feuding with each other. The guards with the party tells them that since the Monsters appeared, they'd scattered the ferals. And unfortunately, that's made it even harder to walk around here. Mimzy remarks that this is a hotspot for many artists, and that they should deal with this fast. 

With that, the group's about to approach, though their attempt to approach is interrupted when several ferals scattered by others are sent towards the party. Seeing them, the guards rush to try and distract them, though the rest are rushing at the party. Seeing that, Tsoa declares that they need to be prepared. With that, players are forced to face the '''Feral Horde''', a large conglomerate of enemies that take attacks as a group, but each are able to deal damage themselves. And unfortunately, through repeated use of Earth magic proves to deal a fair amount of damage to them.

And after struggling with a few volleys of Earth attacks, a cutscene plays, showing the party panting and panting after all of that. Beau remarks that this is just humiliating; beating up a Monster but being defeated by a bunch of smelly and scared ferals. Then, one of the rhinos rear up on their hindlegs, conjuring painful dirt above their horn, before hurling it towards Mimzy. The parrot's eyes widen and she goes to defend... Only for an odd magic to swirl around her, having the oncoming strike instead restore her health.

She looks on curiously, the party themselves confused about what just happened, before one of the guards steps close to their group, boasting a strangely sultry voice. Said guard was a genet woman, brandishing beige fur with brown spots and a long, thick tail, said tail bearing some brown paint on it. She chimes that if they're really struggling with these guys, then she supposes they might need more of a hand than she thought they would. She then brings her hands up in an offensive stance, and declares that it's time to turn the fight around.

With that, players now have the strange new fighter, '''Maje''', fighting alongside them. Maje wields knuckles and with it the ability to deal Smash damage to foes, but she also wields strange buffing magic. Said magic allows her to temporarily allow a party member to Absorb certain types of damage, a very useful skill in this fight considering the frequent use of Earth magic. With her, the players have an easier time battling the horde, and are soon able to disperse it. The group sighs, Mimzy saying that they really should've had an easier time with that fight.

Demiurge thanks the genet, and Maje says it's the least she can do for the couple of celebrities. Tsoa seems excited at this, though Mimzy says that if they're dealing with forces like this, then they'll probably need Maje's skills to get an edge. Maje assures that if that's what's necessary, then she'll be more than happy to assist. Either way, they still have a mission to carry out.


;Jusis 28th - Iuli 8th

With this, the party is now tasked with going around the Wild Plains to try and get rid of the Monster problem. In the meantime, they have to work through various foes to try and get to the multiple destinations. They'd go into each destination, sorting through the various Monsters at each. Meanwhile, there were three patches of woods to examine, and by extension, three different Monsters to deal with.

In one patch of woods, there stands an a round and stumpy-looking Monster with thick scales and long spikes protruding from it. Seeing it, Beau remarks that this looks like a bit of a tough cookie. They also say that this thing looks like a creature of nightmares, though Demiurge suggests maybe those spikes are for defense? Beau supposes that if something like this is born with such a harsh defense, then that's only a sign of how dangerous those Monsters really are. 

Either way, they need to get rid of it! With that, players are forced to face the '''Ankylosaurus'''. The Monster is defense and Smash focused, with a hint of Earth and buffing magic. Fortunately, the player should be able to use Maje's magic to circumvent its multi attack, or Mimzy to disperse its stat buffs. Meanwhile, Tsoa is able to buff up the party to allow them to wear it down. Through careful effort, they're able to overwhelm it, forcing it to flee from the area.

In another patch of woods, the group finds a somewhat feathered Monster, it standing tall, and brandishing claws akin to swords. Maje remarks that these Monsters look more and more born to cause destruction. Demiurge says that the Monsters were raised cruelly unfortunately. Maje says that it's not an excuse for its actions. If it insists on causing trouble, it's their job to get rid of it. Demiurge agrees, and the party gears up.

The party is thus forced to battle the '''Therizinosaurus'''. The clawed creature is Slash/Wind based and has high speed. It relies on DPS, even having a Skill that increases crit chance for all members in the field. Players need to be careful and find ways to reduce damage while keeping up health. Tsoa can help with buffs while Beau themselves is the tankiest of the group, especially with their more defensive stance. Keep up the assault, and soon they should be able to overwhelm it, and force it to flee.

In the next area, players find perhaps the biggest of the Monsters, though doesn't appear to have too thick a hide. In addition, it has a pair of raptors beside it, which it seems to be restoring, seeing as they've been wounded. Tsoa looks on curious, remarking that it seems far nicer than the other Monsters. Demiurge says that any creature worth its salt will need someone to keep its spirits lifted, so surely this is one of those. Tsoa looks on a little dejected, and then says that they should deal with it anyways.

The party is thus made to battle the '''Maiasaura'''. The large creature is Water/Restoration based and is mid-speed. It relies on its fellow raptors to deal damage and tends to heal its allies in between striking the party with magic or a sort of hipcheck. Players will have to be fast about damaging the creature and find ways to lower its health faster than it can heal. And they can't just defeat the Raptors and think that's it, because the Maiasaura has low revival magic. Beau and Maje both deal good damage, especially with one of the former's stances. Maje can also subvert its magic attacks, while Mimzy can open up weakspots in its large pool of magic res. After beating it, it thusly flees.

With those three dealt with, some of the guards that accompanied them are able to advance and congratulate them. Tsoa declares that that was an amazing feeling. How many normals can take care of Monsters? Mimzy says that it is pretty remarkable what they've done. Beau says that this will make for some amazing art pieces later. And Maje says that the four of them were marvelous. And at this, Demiurge can say "We did amazing everyone!" or "Great work!" 

As they talk, more guards appeared. Once there, they tell the group that the Monsters were seen racing back from afar! And they're conglomerating! Hearing that, Mimzy says that that's really bad. Beau says that if they're reconvening, then they'll cause even more damage than before! Tsoa shivers and says that they can't handle all of them at once. Maje, however, says that if they don't, then many more will be in danger. Either way, it seems their path is clear: they need to deal with the Monsters asap. With that, the destination is in the middle of the Plains, and players are allowed a moment to choose whether or not they're ready.

The party rushes to the scene, where they see the trio they'd previously faced. The Ankylosaurus out front, the Therizinosaurus around his side, and the Maiasaura hanging behind. They're traveling as a group and scaring off the various ferals, when they see the party. They seem strangely intelligent enough to understand revenge, and begin to approach them. Seeing the trio, Demiurge says that this looks dangerous. He says that he's never seen this many Monsters together, but says they shouldn't be scared. Monsters belong in the past, while they as people will move on!

With that, the player is forced to fight the team of the '''Ankylosaurus''', the '''Therizinosaurus''', and the '''Maiasuara'''. The trio are quite dangerous together, with the Maiasaura able to heal up their allies, even revive them, and also able to assail the party with magic. The Ankylosaurus is able to buff up their team to make taking them down harder, while also taking far less damage. And the Theizinosaurus relies on damage, as well as boosting crit chance. Players should look at their previous strategies and wear down the enemies one at a time. Fortunately they each only have one act for this fight, but if one enemy remains, they'll east a skill that gives them an extra action. This can be especially bad for the Maiasaura, because it essentially means they can magic/heal or heal twice. Fortunately through careful planning, players should be able to overwhelm the Monsters.

After taking them all out, they each fell, dead. Seeing them beaten, the party actually seems stunned. Mimzy says that they felled that raptor, but this is nothing compared to that small thing. Tsoa requests that he be pinched, surely he's dreaming. Demiurge, meanwhile, steps forwards, approaching the corpses. Curious, he taps at them, and they're unresponsive. He stands up, and says this is real. The party each seems relieved, though seeing him like this, the parrot suddenly gets a flash of inspiration. She sees him stand tall, fists on his hips, looking down on the pile of Monsters. She tells Demiurge to hold that pose, and then whips out a sheet of paper.

Demiurge's eyes widen, and he realizes he may've inadvertently fell for some kind of trap. Either way, the guards agree to tell the chief about this, and Maje says that she'll keep an eye on these guys deciding to pose in the middle of wild lands. With that, Mimzy sketches, and Demiurge is required to stand still all night, forced to look like some kind of hero.
----
After that, players are free to do what they wish with what freetime they have.

;Iuli 9th

On this day, Demiurge is requested back in Dina's office. There, the guard that'd assisted the party earlier, Maje, is seen inside her office. The poodle chief sees Demiurge and asks him how things are going. He says that they're going just fine, that between the fights with Monsters things are pretty ok. Dina is very happy to hear that, and she says that she'd like to speak with him, maybe more about his home, maybe about his current thoughts. 

She says last they talked about Demiurge's guardian, Sophia, and gotten an image of the Draconic Gardens. Demiurge affirms that that is the case. And at that, she asks the Dragon what led to him living on this world. Demiurge said that his parents had gone and made and guided worlds before he knew them, so he wanted to do what they did. He didn't have their ability yet, so Sophia had stepped in to create the world and the people of it, and then it was up to him to guide them.

She remarks that that sounds like a remarkable feat. She herself is a bit of a leader, and things've been a bit uppity in the short time she's had to lead. Demiurge asks if this is about the Monsters, though she admits that there's more than that. There are those that favor their own art over others, those that develop indecent art of people they know, those that just cause violence for things people have... Things've looked pretty nice for him thus far, but the truth is, there are some that don't wish the best for others. Especially the poor models...

Demiurge apologizes about that, though Dina assures him not to feel too discouraged, it's not like he encouraged that. Anyways, she asks Demiurge if there were other Dragons he remembered. Demiurge admits that he didn't socialize much aside from with Sophia. He was kind of too focused on how to be like his parents or like other Dragons. And now, Dina starts to get a weird look in her eye. She asks if Dragons were the first creatures to exist, that life would not exist before them. Demiurge says that that's always how Sophia put it. And now, she asks the Dragon if there's a reason why the Dragons made life. The Dragon starts to open his mouth to answer, though he gives pause.

She waits for him to say something, though realizes that he isn't. She furrows her brow and asks if he needs time to remember the reason. Demiurge is still quiet, and Dina is personally worried. She asks if he wishes to take his mind off of that question, to which he answers that he would. She says that her staff has enjoyed the Dragon's drawing. However, hearing that, he asks if he may have a chance to redraw it. Dani asks why, to which he says he kind of learned more about art, and he felt he should give her a better representation. 

She says it's no trouble, though Demiurge insists. She supposes there's no harm, so she offers him a set of brushes, ink, and a few sheets of paper. So, Demiurge takes them, and begins to head out.
----
He's elsewhere, and looks at his sheet curious. He tries to think of the Dragons he's known, hoping that he could draw them from memory. Instead, he curled his neck to try and get good shots of his form, and tried making the drawings based on his own shape. However, it proves pretty tough. As he worked, however, Maje appears, asking him how he's doing. Demiuge asks how he's supposed to make a drawing when models aren't near. The genet shakes her head, saying how deeply Mimzy got her hooks in him. 

Demiurge asks what she means, to which she says that some artists don't need full realistic liberties for their pieces. Demiurge asks if she means those more surrealist pieces. Maje nods in affirmation. Demiurge says he's personally not too practiced in that field, to which Maje says that she can show him how it works. For now, though, she asks that he tell her about what she missed previously. Demiurge then tells him, and she nods in affirmation. 

She then takes a piece of paper, and begins drawing. Demiurge watches curious as she paints in large yet precise strokes. She paints more and more and more, before sighing and placing the brush aside. Demiurge looked upon the piece stunned. It didn't seem to depict a scene of city life. Instead, he saw a very stylistic form of a Dragon that loomed over a planet. The larger Dragon was pale, and seemed to hold the planet they stood on in a comforting grip. And between it and her was a much smaller Dragon with bronze scales. And behind all of that was the star-speckled sky.

Demiurge says that this is amazing. Mae says that he can get to know this piece too. She tells him where she lives, and offers to teach him if he visits. With that, she parts, leaving him with the art piece.
===Penultimate===
Demiurge returns home, looking over the drawing he'd received. He nears his bed and sees Mimzy is currently working on a picture. There, he sees that she's in the process of developing that one scene where he stood over the felled Monsters. She'd finished the "skeleton" stage way back, and now she was adding the details, apparently using one of the reference pieces worked on way back, this one depicting him in a sort of t-pose, and drawn from multiple angles. Right now, Demiurge found her in the process of outlining his backside.

He walked away, and slept...

;Iuli 10th

On this day, they wake up, and decide to head out. Maje offered her address previously, so he decides to go find it. He walks, and finds the house that fox was working on previously. He knocks the door, and Maje opens. He can see past her is the fox. She greets the Dragon, and introduces him to her kid, '''Dobe'''. The fox waves at him, and the genet remarks that he's just a doll. And he's a natural with a brush. Dobe insists that she's embarrassing him, though Maje leads Demiurge deeper in.

There, she sets up more paper and bunches of paint. She tells Demiurge that a good part of surrealist is to understand your mind and emotions. Those have some profound affects on what you express. Demiurge asks how that translates to art, to which she explains that it's sort of like learning another language. Except that language is sort of personalized. Surrealist art doesn't exactly tend to just spell itself out for everyone. For example, the piece she made for Demiurge: the comforting hold and larger size of the pale Dragon in comparison to the world could give the image of a loving mother; or the size and the way she curls around it gives the image of something scary. Demiurge looks at the drawing again, and supposes that he can see that.

She supposes that for now they should talk about color theory, that at least helps with interpreting the language of art. She asks Dobe to get his old books, and he rushes over to his room, before returning with a book appearing to be under 100 pages long. She takes it, and says that this book was garnered from studies with many individuals over responses to various colors. She says that they aren't concrete results, but they are generally accepted reactions to certain colors. She recommends he look over it and read about certain colors. Meanwhile, she'll gather other books.

With that, Demiurge opens up the book and begins looking through it. It seems hand-written and hand-drawn, depicting splotches of paint, emotions associated with them, as well as why this might be. For example, red is the color of fire and of blood, so people tend to associate it with danger, destruction, power, so on. Blue is the color of the sky and of water, so people regard it relatively warmly, though acknowledge a sense of either expanse or danger in it depending on the person. Demiurge realizes he's actually getting a look at the psychology of some of the people of this world, and is more invested in the book. 

He reads more, when eventually the genet returns with several more books. Here, she says that there'll be talk about shapes, about common set pieces, about emotions associated with various ferals... There's a lot to discuss, so she says that they've got a lot of daylight to burn before picking up the brush. With that, Demiurge finds himself reading for a long time.

;Iuli 11th - Iuli 15th

Once more, Demiurge wakes up. And once more, he goes to that genet's house to learn more. He spends mornings learning, and then has free time to do stuff in the overworld. The process repeats, and one night, Maje stops him. She says that he's retaining the information very well. She congratulates him, and says that tomorrow, it'll be time to act on what he's learned. Demiurge assures that he'll be ready.

;Iuli 16th

Now, Demiurge arrives at Maje's house again. There, she opens the door and lets Demiurge in. The fox is there again, and he greets the Dragon warmly. He says that he's gonna paint with him today, and Maje assures that that's right. She remarks that he's so expressive. Anyways, now's the time to reach into the brain and bring out whatever thoughts lies deep within. Demiurge says that he'll certainly try, and thus the genet leads the two of them in.

They come into an upper room, and there're two sheets of paper set out, though there's a single set of paints between each. Demiurge and Dobe sit next to each other, and observe the brushes between them and the paints. Maje assures the two of them that there's nothing to worry about in this setting. They can take as long as they want, and they can make whatever choices in their art they wish. And if they aren't satisfied with whatever they make, well that'll just be something to move on from. 

With that, they both begin to take their brushes, and begin making their strokes. Demiurge tries to think about what he could possibly put to paper, and glances towards Dobe. The fox is already at work. Demiurge, meanwhile, looks at his paper in deep contemplation. He furrows his brow and tries to think. Think... think...

...

Demiurge finds himself on the edge of the Draconic Gardens, and looks around confused. He looks forwards, and sees the planet he was on before. Only, it doesn't look like there're any changes to it. It just looks... untouched. He turns and sees several of the Dragons he'd occasionally pass before he came here, and he'd approach. However, he'd find that none of them would pay attention. He'd try standing in their way, and they'd just step over him without acknowledging him. He gets more and more concerned, and eventually finds Sophia near another edge. 

At this edge, he can see several of his classmates, now grown up, taking wing and flying off into space. The Dragon approaches and asks Sophia what's going on. Sophia, however, doesn't react to him. Instead, she waves for the Dragons to fly off. Demiurge soon resorts to tapping her to try and get her attention. However, a flick of her wing knocks him onto his rear, the Dragon forced to take pause. By now, the Dragons have flown off, and Sophia turns and walks away, leaving Demiurge. Demiurge soon scampers to his feet and begins racing towards her, calling to her. 

He follows and she just disregards him. Eventually he's followed her to her house, where she shuts the door without ever acknowledging him. Demiurge pauses and stands there, looking at the door longingly. 

...

Demiurge rouses from his day dream, some tears coming down his cheeks. Maje asks if he's doing ok, and says that if this is getting too taxing, they can take a break. Demiurge, however, insists that he's ok. In fact, he thinks he's got something. And then, he begins drawing...
----
By now, the sun's setting. Dobe finished his painting and Maje looked over it. His depicts a scene without any people, set pieces, or even a subject. It seems to more resemble the multi-shaded sky as the sun passes by it, except instead of the somewhat gloomy hues, it features various pastel shades. Maje says that it looks lovely, and Dobe hugs her. She then goes to check out Demiurge's piece, and takes pause.

His piece shows various circles, each surrounded by blacknenss. On each circle, there're somewhat sloppily drawn Dragons of various shades, each surrounded by small dots. And among those circles, one of those sloppily drawn Dragons is drawn with bronze colors. More telling is the lack of dots on this circle, in comparison to the others. She also notices the various circles filled with warm shades of colors, while Demiurge's filled with a dark blue. She picks herself up and says that it is quite remarkable.

After that, it's about time for Dobe to head to bed. Demiurge himself is about to head out, though Maje stops him. She congratulates him on his art, it's not everyone that can pick up the techniques as fast as he has. Demiurge says that he could've done the people better, though Maje tells him that it's not a problem, and it's actually really good that he acknowledges that. He could've not minded it and gone on, and if he feels it's something to improve on, then he's plenty able to.

Either way, Demiurge supposes he should go, though she stops him. She pauses, then asks him if he likes it on this world. There's a pregnant moment of silence, and eventually the player is given a choice. They can say either "Yes" or "No". To the former, Maje says that that's good, and that she was just being silly. To the latter, Maje is quiet, and says that she's sorry. Either way, Demiurge follows up, saying that he just sort of brought up some old feelings. He's sure he can deal with them, and assures it's nothing wrong with the planet, least of all with the people he's met. The people he's met are great. Maje says that that's a relief, though her demeanor's still not quite the way it was.

Either way, it's time to part.

;Iuli 17th

On this day, Demiurge finds Mimzy sleeping on, passed out before her canvas, the one that depicted Demiurge on that day in the Wild Plains. He shook her shoulder a little, and so she roused up. She asked what happened, to which Demiurge explained that she was asleep. She groaned and rubbed at her eye, supposing that she has been more and more sleepy as of late. She says that she needs some fresh air, and begins heading out.

Demiurge himself decides to go check out Maje's place, only to find Dobe telling him that his mom isn't here right now. Demiurge is confused, though figures he can probably pass the time right now. School's out! Instead, he finds Tsoa out at the border of town, him practicing his vocal cords. Demiurge finds him, and the dog says that he thinks he's found a nice quiet place to practice. He asks him if he wants to try singing. Demiurge says he doesn't trust his voice, and the dog says that you'll never really know if you don't try.

Demiurge says he'll try later, and lays back, opting to just listen. He listens on, and when there's a break, the Dragon asks him why he hasn't taken up painting. Tsoa says that a large part of it's stubbornness. Even if, like all of those nay-sayers claim, it's unsustainable as a future, he ultimately enjoys it too much. He can never get behind all the pose-work, and he can never really conceptualize properly for that surrealist stuff. So instead, he does this. Demiurge supposes that makes sense. He just personally wishes he wouldn't be met with as much hostility and laughter as he has.
----
Later that day, Demiurge begins heading home, when Mimzy stops him. She admits to him that she's been talking to Maje, and Demiurge says that that's good. However, she also says that she knows about his artistry, and she thinks he should stick to modeling. Demiurge seems shocked, and so does the genet as she passes by. She asks the parrot what the heck she's talking about. The kid's just expressing himself, no harm in that! Mimzy says that time and time has proven that sometimes one's thoughts should stay ''as'' one's thoughts!

Demiurge asks why his thoughts should stay his own, and at this, Mimzy seems a bit perturbed. She says that, to put it simply, his thoughts are a bit concerning to some that've looked on them. She's looked on them, Dina's looked on them, so have several guards, and it's just stirred up some upset. She says that she can make sticking to the scenery fun. She can make his art flourish. However, Maje says that that's a bunch of manure. She says expression's just as important as fact. And who cares if it scares people, the depths of the mind are scary!

In fact, she's going to guide him to a very nice part of the landscape so he can put those thoughts up. Mimzy, however, says that she'd be more than willing to give him a breathtaking view to design. His art will be one that'll bring tears to everyone's eyes, she swears it! Demiurge declares that enough's enough! The two ladies stop arguing for a moment, and at this point, he says that he'll decide on which he wants to do. The two ladies pause, and suppose that that's fair. Ultimately he's his own guy, so... it's up to him. Mimzy says he can plunge back into the darkness that disturbed the rest, while Maje counters, saying that he can bottle up his nasty feelings til they burn him alive.

Either way, tensions are high, and everyone rests.

;Iuli 18th - Iuli 29th

At this point, players have a choice to make. They can either go to a mountain that Mae offers, or to a valley that Mimzy recalls. One route leads him to continue his self expression, and one route leads him to stick to painting the facts.
====Surrealist Route====
====Poser Route====
On this route, the player chooses to keep working on the more realistic art style. For this, players have to first head towards a valley far northwards. This involves a long walk through the plains, before eventually arriving at the '''Valley of Sights'''. The trail to it is long, and approaching it reveals a fairly scenic view. There's a river running through it and unveiling a stream falling down the cliff and heading elsewhere. It also features a long drop far down, and has various fauna going about the location.

Mimzy says that it's beautiful, and Demiurge himself acknowledges that it is a very pretty sight. Tsoa leans near the edge, and sings a brief note. He takes note of how it echoes through the valley, and he says that this seems like it'd be a really good spot for some music. Beau says that many models have headed out here. There are several that tried to pose on some of the cliffs below, though they'd occasionally be chased off by the wildlife. She asks Demiurge what kind of a piece he'd like, and says that they (Beau) can probably handle the creatures out here. Demiurge says that he'll have to decide on what he'd like.

For now, the player's tasked with walking around the lip of the valley to examine for good sights. Eventually, they make it to about halfway away from the origin of the valley, when Demiurge spies down into it. There's a particular spot of the valley near the river that shows a wonderful patch of grass, and the sun seems to shine down on it just right. There are also natural ramps leading up from the patch, and said ramps also have that nice grass lining them. It looked like a spot of life in the dusty valley. Demiurge says that this is a great angle for down there.

Seeing that, Beau says that that is a wonderful spot. To make sure they have it just right, they should make sure a path to that spot of land is secure. Mimzy, however, says that first she'll draw the natural scene. She brings out a canvas and begins her work, though Tsoa's senses kick in. He looks around, and sees several feral coyotes scampering through the area. And they appear to be heading straight towards them. Tsoa is concerned, and quickly informs the group. They each turn to see the foes, and Maje tells the group to get ready, the locals are attacking! 

With that, they're forced to battle the '''Coyote Horde'''. It's a fairly simple fight, this horde fight. The enemy wields a combination of Earth, Dark, and Slash attacks, and the player still should be careful. Fortunately, through taking care of the forces, they're able to overwhelm the enemies. After taking care of them, they each wail and begin racing away, leaving the party be. The party pants, a little disheveled. The genet says that the models clearly haven't been to this part of the area. And Beau says that that's more reason to make sure the path to the focus point of the painting is secure. She says she's about to finish up the natural scene, and says they'll look for a route down pronto.

After wrapping up, they begin to head down the nearest ramp. Down the way, they encounter various creatures, from vultures with insta-kill magic, to other coyotes, to giant spiders, kit foxes, even the occasional dangerous mountain lion. They go more and more, and soon make it to the depths of the valley. They progress forwards, going across the river. As they walk, though, Tsoa admits that he's feeling a bit uncertain about what might be ahead here. With that, players are given warning, letting them know to progress only when they say yes.

They head towards the grassland. And as they progress, they soon become aware of a presence nearby. Tsoa says that he has a bad feeling, and draws his scepter and begins touching the grass carefully. The rest of the party follows him curious and tries to see what is going on. However, little do they realize that they should be paying attention to the water. Tsoa keeps on tapping and the party keeps on following, when a hissing draws the party's attention. In concern, they each turn to see what is threatening them, and see a great big feral snake that appears to be as thick as a tree trunk. The party takes up their weaponry, Mimzy asking how the heck this creature got so big. Beau says that a lot of creatures fight for resources, and this just so happens to be an area rich of them, and it looks like this snake's well trained! Maje tells everyone to get ready, and the feral lunges at them.

With that, players are forced to battle the '''Valley Serpent'''. First things first, the game treats the initial turn as if the reptile ambushed the party, which means it has a free action at the start. And when that happens, it'll cast a multi-targeting poison spell, and it has a decent chance of landing. This can give the serpent a nasty head start in the battle as the player will be forced to either stomach at least one of their party members constantly losing health, or they'll spend at least one turn to expunge the poison. The fight is very much a fight of attrition, with the serpent utilizing either multi-target slash skills, single target stab skills, single target water skills, or single target poison skills with a high chance of working. Thankfully it seems to reserve its previous group cast of poison for only the opening of the fight, so there's that. Players should relegate one of their allies to support duty so as to make sure the serpent doesn't overpower them, and find openings to raise the party's defensive/attack power. With enough tactical work, players should be able to beat the snake.

It's alarmed by the fight it's gone through, and starts inching away. It's then forced to turn and slither down the river, away from the scene the party wished to claim for their art. Mimzy groans and remarks that there's a reason that they call it pain-ting. Maje groans and says that it's time to get to work on this stupid painting. She says that it's time to decide on who'll be at this scene, and what exactly they'll be painting them doing. Demiurge says that Beau is, of course, going to be here. And while here... he says that he'd like them to stay here, prop over their shoulder while they look fondly towards the waterfall. Beau says that that's perfect, and then they go to the grassland and begin to take pose. Mimzy, meanwhile, says that it's time to prepare the artwork.

The canvas is set, the river is in frame, and Beau is in the center. Mimzy tells Demiurge that he set up the scene, maybe he should make the work. So, Demiurge is stood in front of the canvas, and Mimzy says that she'll guide him for as long as it takes. She's brought plenty of paint, they've got plenty of paper, it'll be fine. So, Demiurge takes a deep breath, and begins the process of sketching, closely guided by Mimzy. The process goes on...

...

Eventually, it's the middle of the night, moonlight bathing the area in a nice blue hue. Demiurge groans and brushes his brow, before looking on his piece. It's not totally ironed out, nor is the paint even. However, it still manages to capture the general image, and manages to make Beau's presence almost divine. Mimzy says that he did amazing, and Demiurge thanks her. She says that she'll do everything in her power to keep this safe. If he ever wishes to spruce it up he can use this picture as a reference. Demiurge thanks her, and with that, their mission is clear, and they go home...
====Conclusion: Surrealist====
;Iuli 30th
====Conclusion: Poser====
;Iuli 30th

On this day, the group's back in the under construction museum. Specifically, they're in a sector that's heavily constructed and bares many art pieces, a lot of them being sealed up in tight glass bindings. Among which includes various paint works, and even what looked to be musical sheets. Mimzy nears one of the glass bindings and opens it up. She then offers the Dragon to do the honors. The Dragon thus approaches and takes up the art piece, before setting it in place. It shows off the finished work piece with Beau posing in the bottom of that valley on top of the grass.

Mimzy assures that this will be an amazing image for future generations. With that, the group begins to head out, though Demiurge and Maje stay back. As they're left alone, Maje asks Demiurge if he's feeling ok. Demiurge says that it did feel pretty good to get something that looked good in here. He also says that he's sorry about the drama that his previous art brought on. Maje says that he shouldn't have to apologize for that. He was just expressing himself, that's the very nature of their world right now. Demiurge asks if Maje was disturbed by his art, and she gives pause.

Maje says that if you peel apart a person's mind enough times, you'll see something scary in anyone. Even if it's just the base animalistic instincts in any person left there since man first lived as feral creatures, there's something to fear. Surrealist art is meant to dip into that psyche, so it shouldn't be a surprise if something scary comes up. She supposed that the people hadn't expected such a thing to exist in Demiurge himself, but she also supposes they forget that he's a person like anyone else.

Either way, she hopes that this doesn't dissuade him from his future expression. And if he feels the need to, then he's free to come to her privately for his work. Demiurge is quiet, though eventually the two leave. 
===Finale===
With this, Demiurge's back in the square of town, hanging with Beau and Tsoa. The trio are having some herb, one of which puts those that chew it into a bit of a lull. Tsoa says that this is to Demiurge, for his bookmark in artistry. Beau also congratulates him, saying that his will surely be a famous piece. Demiurge thanks the two of them as he chews a bit more. As they chew, Beau can't help but ask what'll be his next piece. Demiurge asks if he has to come up with one so soon, and Tsoa says that of course, they can't be sloppy after all. He himself had to work constantly with Mimzy to first come up with the music note stuff, and he's repeatedly had to help her record his notes.

Demiurge furrows his brow, and supposes he isn't sure just yet. Either way, the three of them should probably relax a little bit. Demiurge himself can work on his posing and maybe study more on his color theory. Beau supposes that that makes sense. Tsoa says that he can't wait to see what else he's got in store. As they talk, however, they begin to see a few of the villagers gather around and focus on them. Tsoa wonders if they're getting a little popular. Beau supposes that this is probably a good time to go home. With that, they get up, and sluggishly begin moving. Demiurge also thanks the two of them for hanging out, and Tsoa and Beau tell him any time. 

;Iuli 31st - Augua 6

Following that, players have a fair amount of free time, free to do as they wish. This includes sidequests, social links, grinding, and more. Throughout it, players are free to interact with various characters, who each seem enamored by Demiurge's work. 
*If players went the poser route, they'll ask where they made their art
*If players went the surrealist route, they'll ask what what he made means

On the night of Augua 6th, before Demiurge heads home, Maje comes and stops him. She says that Dina wishes to talk to him tomorrow. Demiurge supposes that it makes sense for there to be more to talk about between the two of them. He says that he'll be there tomorrow. Maje nods, and then the two part, and Demiurge goes to rest.

;Augua 7th

On this, Demiurge returns to Dina's home. He steps in and sits before Dina, the latter of which greets him. He sits before her, and she begins to talk. She says that Mimzy says that him and his friends've worked something out. Demiurge explains that he has, that he made an art piece, and he felt that that really helped him. She's glad to hear that, and as such, would like to ask him about the progress.
*If you did the Surrealist Route:
*If you did the Poser Route: She says that the new piece in the museum looks really nice. Demiurge thanks her, and says that it really helped to have a good image for the piece. She agrees and says that she's known plenty of artists that've agreed. Many have hit a painful art block, and many of those found that a change of scenery was what they needed. And, she also hopes that this made Demiurge feel more confident about the planet he's on. At that, players can choose to have him say "It did" or "I didn't hate the planet". Either way, Dina says that she's glad they could've worked through Demiurge's little spell, though the Dragon's unsure whether or not they really solved anything, though he doesn't vocalize this concern.

After that stuff, she then says that construction of the museum is looking strong. She anticipates it'll become a popular attraction within a few years. On top of that... She says that several of the people have been feeling cooped up in this area. So, they've been wanting to expand as of late. She's thus starting to work on selecting good representatives, and then they'll work on creating more villages. As such, she wonders if Demiurge might wish to join them.

Demiurge is surprised at the news. However, before he can talk, a distinguished-looking raccoon man rushes in, him joined by a pair of guards. He gasps and says that the Lord of the Land's been spotted! The many people in there are surprised and Dina gasps, asking him if he's serious. He assures he is, that he was scouting the landscape there, and they noticed the signs of destruction. Some of the guards investigated, and found the Monster there. Hearing that, Dina is disturbed. 

She turns to Demiurge and apologizes, but swears that she needs him to do something of great importance. Demiurge says that if the Lord of the Land is involved, then he'd be more than happy to deal with them. Dina thanks him, and asks the raccoon where it was spotted. He says that they found it deep in a cave near the village sight, and they were lucky to get out. Dina says that from the sounds of things, attempting a direct assault would be suicide. She thus suggests that if they're going to go after this creature, they need to wait for it to come out of its home advantage. 

With that, she dismisses Demiurge, and tells him to prepare to be called to battle.
----
Later that day, Demiurge has met up with his many party members, and has explained to them the situation. They're each quite alarmed. Beau asks if he's serious about them being sent to take care of the strongest of the Monsters, to which Demiurge assures that that is the case. The many party members are worried, and Mimzy speaks up, saying that a Lord of the Land had beaten Demiurge in the Stone Ages. Demiurge says that's true, but he's come to see that this group is not the same as those of way back when. 

He looks at each of them, and sees in each of them something greater than what the old intelligentsia had. He looks at Mimzy and says he sees a powerful mind. He looks at Tsoa and says he sees a strong conviction. He looks at Beau and says he sees great endurance. And he looks at Maje, and says he sees great ingenuity. Each of them have something that, together, helps him grow more confident in the era.

He says that they each are great, and that he's confident when he stands should to shoulder with them. The party seems stunned, though they begin to get riled up. Mimzy says that if he's confident in them, then they should be more confident in themselves. Tsoa says that they've put up with him, no way he can back out now. Beau says that after all the work he's put in, it'd be a crime to put it to waste now. Mae says that if he's gonna put himself out like this, then it's up to guys like them to keep him safe. Either way, it seems that the party has finally agreed that they need to go through with this.

For now, it seems like the group's ready to get to work on felling this Lord of the Land.

;Augua 8th - Augua 17th

During this period of time, players are allowed free time. Clear up whatever remaining social links they have, grind up however much they feel necessary, perform any sidequests they feel necessary, and gather whatever material they deem necessary. They work more and more, until eventually, Augua 18th comes.

;Augua 18th

On this, the party wakes up. And when they do, guards have made it to the each of them. They say that the Monster has revealed itself. Hearing that, they each decide to head out in the direction of the foe. This takes them far, far northwest...
----
They head north, and need to make their way across the mountain range northwest of the village. They go across it, and head out to a series of hills with numerous Monster bones strewn about. This land is known as '''T'rere'''. They head deeper in, and as they do, they can hear heavy stomps. Mimzy tells the group that if anything happens, she's very grateful towards everything they've done. They progress more and more, and soon make it up the hills, and uncover the source of those stomps. 

There stands a creature identical to what Demiurge fought way back when. A mighty T-rex that looked like it could singlehandedly dismantle the civilization everyone had been working towards. If it wasn't dealt with here, it and its Monsters could cause all sorts of destruction. Seeing it, Demiurge tells everyone that this is it. Each party member draws their weapon, and draws the attention of the creature. It turns and spies them, and then puts on a more threatening disposition. He tells them to get ready, and the Monster charges them.

With that, players are forced to battle the '''Lord of the Land'''. It serves as a fairly tough fight. The T-Rex wields high attack and high endurance, sometimes uses Earth/Fire damage to strike the party, and sometimes will try to use a group Smash attack that has a chance of knocking them over. Players should be able to lower its resistances to make him vulnerable to certain characters, and can rely on Maje for some healing if they time their skills just right. Tsoa can help keep up defenses. And Beau probably has the highest physical damage among the group. Utilize their combined power to overpower the creature, and soon, its health will drop.

The following cutscene shows it fall to its knees, panting and panting. The Monster gives a pained gasp, and falls onto its stomach, positively overwhelmed. The party sighs and lowers their guard. Mimzy says that she was actually scared. She didn't expect to see something like this, and yet, here they are. She says that this is a perfect picture opportunity. She begin to approach to set up a canvas, and as she does, Demiurge notices the Monster's eye pop open. Demiurge is shocked, and realizes that Mimzy hasn't noticed. 

He raced towards the parrot in terror. He shouts for her, and she glances back in confusion, as the Lord of the Land opens its jaws up. The rest of the party is terrified and starts to go forwards, and Mimzy has a moment to glance towards the Monster. And then, Demiurge is able to shove her to the side and out of the creature's way, only for it to bring its jaws down on the Dragon's neck. He finds his head in the foe's maw, and feels its teeth piercing his neck. Worse still, the force of the creature's jaw feels to've paralyzed his lower body.

He then feels the jaws tighten around him, and he begs the rest of his party to finish this creep off. And then, he feels a splitting pain at the base of his neck, and everything goes dark...

----
*If players have finished the Surrealist Route, they'll then go to the [[#Surrealistic Era|Surrealistic Era]]
*If players have finished the Poser Route, they'll then go to the [[#Realistic Era|Realistic Era]]
==Surrealistic Era==
==Realistic Era==
Demiurge feels this terrible coldness, a terrible lack of himself. He can't feel anything below his neck, and he's scared. However, he can feel his old self begin to fill out. Eventually, he feels something crunching beneath him. He's finally able to wake up, and groans. He starts to stand and blinks to try and get a read on wherever he is. He finds himself in, of all places, a glass display case. He's confused and looks around, and he can see what looks like the bones of several Monsters in similar conditions to his own.

He grows especially confused and searches the case containing him. He goes to push it, though he suddenly sees, entering, a certain pale Dragon. She approaches and waves at Demiurge. She reaches under the class containing him, and, with only a finger, lifts up the stuff containing him, and she beckons him forwards. He steps out, and she carefully places it back down. She asks him if he's handling the world well enough. Demiurge says that he is, though he's not sure how he got here, or even where "here" is. Sophia, however, says that he'll have to find that out himself.

Either way, she warns that it's late, and there are a few people that aren't keen on visitors this late. However, she's sure if he stays here and explains himself that they'll let him off the hook. Demiurge asks who "they" is, though Sophia begins walking. She says that his growth is appreciated, and that he should remain keen. There is more work to be done. Demiurge realizes he hasn't checked himself out, and sure enough, he's grown a little bit. His horns are developing, his wings are larger, and he's taller. He then turns to the display case, and finds a sign to describe what's inside. 

The sign has a drawing that seems to depict his draconic skeleton, though it shows only above the waistline area. The text describes that Demiurge and allies were fighting the Lord of the Land, when Demiurge himself was slain. His head ending up in the Monster's belly, and when the Monster itself was slain, its skeleton was partially broken while the Dragon's appeared to be forming more, despite only his head being reported. The skeleton was brought to the Mimzy Museum while the Lord of the Land's was put under restoration. 

Demiurge strokes his chin curious, when he hears someone saying "You aren't supposed to be here." Demiurge turns, and finds a well dressed cat man. However, upon seeing him, his eyes widen as he spies the creature's general frame.
===Beginning===
Demiurge finds himself being led out by the cat, and as he walks, he finds the museum very different from what it once was. He's in a section labeled "Art Era", and as the cat leads him out more, he's soon led into a lobby that looks to be as big as a house, complete with long staircases and ramps leading up to one of three different floors. He looks back, and sees the hall he came out of marked "History/Reference Material". Looking around, he can see more halls, one extra on this floor, and halls on upper floors. Others seem to lead to more historic sections, and others seemed to label certain art pieces, several under the names of artists. Meanwhile, in the center of the lobby, he can see a statue made in memory of Mimzy, though this Mimzy appeared significantly older. 

Demiurge asked where they were heading, to which the cat says he's not sure if he should bring him to the chief or to the coroner. Either way, this is unprecedented. They're led out of the museum, and Demiurge finds the former village of Origlo now standing as a very prominent town. Instead of a dusty plain with very plain buildings, there was clean blocks of stone around making up the field, and the buildings were similarly made up of houses, them far less colorful than those in the past era. And he also saw a few guys walking around in fancier dresses now. 

Demiurge asked where he was. The cat answered that he's in the capital of artistry, '''Origlo'''. Here the top colleges stand to try and help people be as talented as anyone can be. Demiurge ponders what he means by college, and he asks what rock he's been living under. Demiurge answers a Monster's belly, apparently. The cat is uncertain what he means, though he answers. He says that colleges are where people go to get more info on fields of interest. And their colleges happen to be among the most thorough. Demiurge takes note of "their", and asks if there are other cities like this. He answers that of course there are.

Anyways, they're heading towards one corner of the city, a residential district. And here, Demiurge noticed that the buildings that were directly outside of the almost castle-like museum were giant buildings, though they were not as big as the museum, and seemed to have a more complex shape than a cube, possessing curved rooves and spires. Here in the residential district, however, he'd see houses two floors high on average, each with far more simpler shapes than what he saw over in the other place. He'd also see less well dressed, though still well dressed, people around the streets. He walked more and more, and soon, they made it to a graveyard that appeared to be stuffed into the corner of the city.

They approached, and find a gravekeeper. He's a strangely gruff wolf guy with black fur, and he's wearing a black cloak that tapers off into a triangular-tail. He's named '''Sonil'''. He looks at the cat guard curious, wondering what he's doing so far from the museum. Then he sees the Dragon and is surprised. The cat guard says that he wasn't sure who he should approach about this. He's pretty sure that this Dragon is legally dead, so he figured that he should reach out to him? Sonil's not sure what he intends to show, but he supposes he can examine the Dragon's grave. So, they go through the graveyard, and eventually make it to the Dragon's tombstone, it surrounded by Mimzy, Beau, Tsoa, and Maje. Demiurge looks on with regret, and Sonil digs the Dragon's grave. Demiurge leans over curious, and finds a coffin there. Sonil pries open the coffin, and uncovers a headless Dragon skeleton.

Demiurge can't help but feel a little sick looking at it, and Sonil remarks that it looks the same as any report's said previously. No tampering, no movement, nothing of consequence. The guard asks what it means, though the wolf says he's not sure. Maybe this Dragon isn't legally dead anymore? The guard says that that's obvious, though Sonil points out that he came to him. Anyways, Sonil asks the Dragon if he's ok. Demiurge says that he's not sure how he feels. It's so weird looking at his old body like this, and Sonil remarks that that sounds like something that'd exist only in a nightmare. He apologizes for him, and begins reburying it.

Either way, Sonil supposes that the guard should return to his quarters, and Demiurge himself should probably check out the town's leader. Demiurge says that he doesn't know where they are, to which the wolf says that he'll help him over. He hasn't seen anyone try anything to this bone yard. Besides, there's something strangely poetic about him guiding the dead. Demiurge blanches at that, though Sonil says he's teasing. The more you can laugh at something, the less power it has. Either way, he begins walking out of the graveyard and through the streets.
----
They progress through the streets, and eventually make it to a building similar to the colleges that one guard talked about, though this one's far more narrow than the others. Sonil approaches the door and knocks on it, prompting a guard within to ask them if they know what time it is. They see the Dragon, and their eyes bug out in shock. They then scramble for the door and open it up, offering for the two to head in. Demiurge thanks them, and so the two progress in.

Demiurge finds himself looking upon an inside with marble tiling and plaster, giving the inside of the building an almost temple-like look. Demiurge progresses carefully, and notices several guards throughout. They give him a salute as he passes, and he waves at each. They head more and more in, and are eventually led up the stairs and to a room brandishing an emblem akin to a Dragon. He opens the door, and inside finds a quetzal lady in a silvery dress, the back of it flaring in a lily pad-like shape with fur adorning it. She sees the two, and greets them cordially. 

She remarks that she would normally ponder if she were dreaming, seeing the Dragon right now, though that wolf's stench assures her she's quite awake. Sonil apologizes and says he headed straight here after the Dragon popped up in his presence. Demiurge assures that this isn't a dream. She then introduces herself as '''Chief Dawn''', ruler of Origlo. Demiurge says it's great to meet her, and introduces himself, though the quetzal assures she's heard of him. Legends speak of how he stood for every virtue of the past and helped spearhead its movement in the field of arts, and how he was tragically slain by the Monster that'd soon be struck down themselves. 

And then, spirits were raised when the head within the Monster's belly began to heal. And now, here Demiurge himself stands. The Dragon awkwardly agrees, saying here he is. She repeats that he is here, and that he'll be of great help. Demiurge is sure he will, but he wonders what help he is to provide. She answers to keep making strides in the world of art, of course. Demiurge says he's sure to aid, though remarks that the people of the past taught him what he knew. However, Dawn says that they require more than just teaching.

Demiurge is a symbol of change, and of direction. Without his guidance, the people of the old world would've been confined to this realm, and would not've reached out farther and farther for art pieces. And even now, they reshape the landscape to try and make something impactful for their pieces. But what they need is more direction. That is why she wishes for Demiurge to go around and share his story, and help the students realize a path for each of them to move towards.

She says that she can offer him housing in her estate. And tomorrow, she'll grant him his first task. Demiurge is still not sure what he's doing, but he says that he'll perform to the best of his abilities. She also turns to Sonil and tells him he's dismissed. The wolf nods, and then heads out. The guards, meanwhile, lead the Dragon out of this room, and into a room adjacent from Dawn's. He's led in, and there, he sees that the room's a little small for him. It has a bed maybe half a foot too small for him, a dresser, a desk with sheets of paper and several art supplies upon it, and a window out over the city.

The guard says that the room will be changed to accommodate him later, and Demiurge thanks him. The guard leaves, and Demiurge closes the door. He then goes to lay in the bed, and gets ready for the first day of his new era.

;Augua 8th

Here, Demiurge wakes up again. He climbs out of bed and rubs at his neck, remarking that he needs a bigger bed. When he steps out, a guard nearby is quick to inform him of one of the classes he'll be helping out. He'll be heading over to the '''Beau-Honored College''', and assist anthropologist '''Galebo''' in their demonstrations to their class. Demiurge says he'll be happy to help, and asks where this college is and where in it he'll find Galebo. The guard says he can assist, and so begins leading Demiurge out. 

They head through the town, go towards the college districts, and eventually towards one of those fancily designed buildings. It is, indeed, marked as the Beau-Honored College. The guard says that they'll explain Demiurge's situation here, and then the staff should lead him to the anthropologist. The Dragon nods, and so they go ahead, entering into a fairly big lobby room. It features a far more modest look than Dawn's room, featuring wood flooring with rugs connecting from door to door. The lobby features paintings of, presumably, people from across history. And at one end of the room is a desk with a ferret man at it talking to the guard. 

The guard parts from the ferret, and said ferret reaches into his desk before pulling out, with both items in one hand, a map and a small necklace. He tells Demiurge to return the necklace when he exits, and the Dragon swears he will. He then opens up the map and looks through it, finding the layout of the school, as well as one of the rooms, which the ferret appeared to've circled before handing it over. Demiurge then progresses through the halls, this room being on ground floor, and there are more drawings of historic people, some less modest than others. Eventually, he makes it to the room in question, this one being over at the far end of the college. He adjusts his necklace, and then opens the door.

And when he opens it, he sees a fairly large room that's built such that the door side is at its highest point, while stairs stationed around the local area lead lower and lower to various levels of desks, until it eventually leads to the lowest point, where a larger desk stands in front of a chalkboard with a lady addressing the class. Said chalkboard depicts various shapes of body parts, equating angular to something more tough or dangerous while equating roundness to something cuter, maybe to youth even. And the lady addressing the class is a komodo dragon woman, standing relatively tall and wearing a brown dress with a white shirt.

She appears to be taking attendance, and at this point, Demiurge notices a few other students in the classroom. While she takes attendance, Demiurge carefully raises his hand and asks "Galebo?" At that, the komodo dragon looks up from her sheet to get a good look at whoever just addressed her, when her eyes widen and her jaw drops. The camera then switches to her perspective as she spies the Dragon, a pink backdrop behind him as fairy-like sparkles twinkle around him, the Dragon appearing more sharp and muscular to the teacher. It then cuts away from her perspective to show that she's just staring. Demiurge nervously glances among the students, who're each alternating between looking at him and the teacher, before the Dragon repeats himself.

The komodo dragon shakes her head and apologizes, she was lost in thought for a moment. Either way, she clears her throat, and introduces herself to the Dragon as Galebo, though reminds the class that she is Galebo to the assistant. To the rest of the class, she is still Ms. Dobnier. The class responds simultaneously that they understand. She then asks Demiurge to come to the front of the class, and he obliges, heading down one of the stairs to get beside the teacher's desks. And when there, he asks her what she wishes of him, to which she says that she wishes to go over a few theories in biological design and would like Demiurge to help with some of them. 

Here begins one of her lectures where she tells the class about the body and about phycological reactions to said body parts. Here, she talks about how shapes actually tend to have lead to part of that. This day, they're going to talk about shapes. Here, she turns to the Dragon and says that he faced some Monsters in the past, yes? Demiurge affirms that he did. There, she asks him if he can show to the class what they resembled. Demiurge thinks to himself how he'll portray it, before turning to the chalkboard. He looks at her curious, before she motions towards a bar of chalk. Demiurge then picks it up, before holding it like a pencil. He presses it to the board, and notices that it leaves behind a mark. His brow raises in understanding, and then he begins drawing.

There, he draws one of the velociraptors they faced. And here, Galebo nods in approval, before asking the class to take notice of the general shape of it. Lots of angles, the triangular head, pointy claws... She asks Demiurge how he feels looking at it. Demiurge can say "It's powerful" or "It's terrifying". She then asks the students how this image makes them feel, and there's a mixture of "powerful" or "scary" in the crowd. She says that the appearance of it gives off an intimidating image towards most, doesn't it? She says that once upon a time, people were feral, and they'd often operated on base instincts that fostered through experience of others. Among the earliest and most prominent predators were creatures like this, brandishing sharp claws, sharp teeth, and a very angular body type. Whether they developed this shape as an evolutionary trait or not, they don't know, but the point is that a long time ago, animals were terrified of these creatures, and many would know to stay far away from things like this. 

She likens it to the oft under-explored color theory in that people associated various feelings with colors. Just like people associated red with danger, others would learn to associate triangular things with cutting or stabbing. Similarly, the fairly triangular/angular figure of the old Monsters could be associated with hunters or predators, especially as tools seemed to keep on employing that. Meanwhile, there are various ferals that take on rounder shapes, and even some babes maintaining these shapes, so there's a general innocence and friendliness found in items like these.

One of the students raise a hand. Galebo addresses her, and the sheep student speaks up, saying that she's had to drawl triangles and squares, but she hasn't felt scared of them. At that, Galebo says that that's a good question. She says that there's a difference between the shape itself and the imagery. The shapes themselves are mere building blocks for larger figures, so you don't exactly get the same feel from looking at the individual pieces. However, seeing them in a more complex shape, that's a different story. To demonstrate, she draws a square on one side, and a triangle on the other. She says that apart, they just look like basic shape. Then she draws several triangles on one side of the square, and at that she points out that now it resembles spikes, doesn't it?

Either way, the class progresses with her talking more about how the shapes of individuals might impact their view of them, and how this may translate into drawings, with her pointing out how some of their kinder historic figures are often portrayed in a soft, rounded fashion than historically accurate documents would suggest, and vice versa. 
----
Class soon wraps up. And at this point, the class heads out. Meanwhile, Galebo and Demiurge are left alone together. And at this point, she chooses to ask the Dragon where he's been all her life. Demiurge simply responds that he's kinda been dead until yesterday. Galebo looked on confused, though she cleared her throat and moved on. Anyways, she thanks him for his assistance earlier. She felt that that really got her point across to those guys. 

Demiurge admits that it's an interesting thing to learn about. He admits that if that applies to real life people, to which she replies that sometimes there're initial bad impressions with certain people, especially reptilians. A few students were even scared of her. However, the more they got to now her, the more they enjoyed her presence. Demiurge, meanwhile... he has some reptilian features, but as a Dragon, he has a different impact on others' psychology. 

Either way, it's getting late, so she'll head to her place, and Demiurge himself should go somewhere else. And so, they both head out. They walk past the streets, sharing the same route for a while. However, as they move, they hear some claws scraping along the concrete. They turn, and they can see a squad of feral dogs, each looking quite dangerous, racing towards them. Galebo seems shocked and tells Demiurge to look out. The Dragon turns and spies the group of savage ferals. He says that they're pretty fast, he doesn't think they can outrun them.

Galebo then reaches to her satchel, and pulls out a tome. She tells Demiurge to get ready, and so, players are forced to battle the '''Kidnappers'''. During this fight, players learn a fair bit about Galebo herself. She wields a surprisingly wide range of magical abilities, able to cover more weaknesses than most party members. In addition, she has access to Charm magic, which has a chance of forcing enemies to act in a matter beneficial to the party. And with her abilities, the group is able to defeat the ferals. 

And after that, the ferals are down and panting. Looking over them, Galebo notices that they're collared. Demiurge asks what that means, and she says that someone owns these. And then, a stoat lady in a big dress runs in, screaming for several names. And when she spies the four, she wails and rushes for them, asking the duo what they've done! Demiurge says that the dogs attacked them, they had to defend themselves. The lady insists that they're precious angels, how dare they lay a finger on them! Galebo asks if she's serious. And as the conversation looks as if it's about to turn sour, those in the area notice a smell, and grimace.

Demiurge turns towards the source, and spies the grave keeper from before, Sonil. He remarks that his ears were ringing from all the barking he heard, and he thought he'd come to investigate. And here, he finds his friend and some dangerous-looking lady getting harassed by dogs. Galebo looks towards the other lady victoriously, and she seems left without words. She declares that she doesn't care for the opinion of someone that watches the dead. The dogs seem to've recovered by now, and they each seem to react to the smell, and run off. She claims that she's not forgiving them for hurting her babies, but she won't bother with their presence anymore.

She walks off, and Galebo sighs. She thanks Sonil for his aid, and asks why he came to help out like that. He says that he figured he should keep an eye on the dead, and well, a friend of the dead is a friend of his. Galebo asks if he's referring to the Dragon, and Demiurge nods. Sonil says that he's still interested in the guy and he'd hate for anything to happen to him too soon. Galebo now seems weirded out, though still thanks him. He nods, and says that he can accompany them. She says that it shouldn't be necessary, her dorm's just next square now. He nods and waves her off, and so she parts. She says that she can't wait to speak with Demiurge some more.

With that, Sonil asks Demiurge if she's really the guy they paired him with. Demiurge asks what's wrong, and he answers that nothing's officially wrong. There're just a lot of guys that claim to have weird vibes around her. Some swear that she just stares for long periods of time at people, and there are some that even claim that they swear some of her sketches uses them as references. Demiurge is weirded out by that news, and says that that is odd. Still, maybe it's just her theory about shapes influencing psychology having an effect. Sonil shrugs and says that they're just rumors.

Anyways, he'll help him back to his old place, and Demiurge supposes he doesn't know the layout too well. And so, they walk, and soon arrive back at the old place.


;Augua 9th

Once again, Demiurge is meeting with the komodo dragon. He has to be walked through town again, and once there, he's able to actually run into her at the lobby. She greets the Dragon, and says that Dawn sent her a message. Demiurge asks what she asked, to which she replied that the lord feels several of their professors should be able to go to one of the nearby cities. She apparently felt that her academics have been quite influential, and she feels that she should bring their word to other students.

She also said that she was sure the Dragon would be able to give them safe passage. Demiurge says that he's sure he can help, though asks what they could face. Galebo says that the trail tends to have ferals and bandits about it, the latter of which will exceptionally have a soft spot for important people like them. Demiurge asks why she reached out to her, and she says that her relation to the Dragon determined that she should help.

Either way, she supposes the boss has given their orders. The two of them are to clear up the trail between Origlo and '''Ahan''' to the southeast. She's informed her assistant, and they should be able to dole out her notes. This means that they have some alone time, she suggests with a wink. Either way, they should begin their work.
----
With this, the duo heads out to the southeast exit of town, and there, there is a worn trail from many people that've walked before them, as well as what appears to be trimmed grass around the edges, suspecting someone tried to keep this orderly. On either side of the trail are long expanses, boasting plains with ferals walking around, as well as clumps of trees here and there. The trail seems to stretch on a long distance, and this trail is regarded as the '''Origlo-Ahan Trail'''.

Galebo says that there's no time like the present. With that, they move out. Here, players are required to move along the trail as Galebo says that there are a few problem areas Dawn noted. She said that if they clear up those areas, the professors should be able to make it to Ahan. With that, they progress forwards, the trail pretty empty at first. As they walk, however, they soon pass a patch of woods adjacent to the trail, Galebo saying that this part's noted as a problem area.

They begin to enter, while a figure comes in from behind. The duo steps in, and Galebo says that if it weren't for the danger, this spot would be kinda romantic. Demiurge says that the scenery is kinda nice, all while looking around for any foe. As they walk, however, figures begin to move in from the brush. The duo turns to face the encroachers, only to realize they're starting to get surrounded. Galebo draws her tome while Demiurge takes up a defensive pose as they see a bunch of guys in rags close in on them.

A cat-like bandit remarks that these look like some of those bigwigs up in Origlo. A dirty raven guy affirms: those clothes are just like one of the guys that turn their noses at them. Galebo remarks that these sound like a bunch of degenerates that blame their problems on the successful. One of the bandits snaps, declaring that they did cause their problems! They were born in a world where everyone around them had a better chance of making a name for themselves! Galebo says she doesn't care what excuses they have, and decides that she'll just get rid of them now.

With that, players are forced to battle the '''Bandit Squad''', but the process proves difficult. Especially at the start, which is treated as an ambush on the enemies' part. This gives them the chance to use Sneak Attack to try and knock someone down, or inflict one of different status ailments. The fight goes on, but it proves pretty tricky, even with Galebo's wide range of coverage and charm. Eventually, they're panting and panting as the armed warriors close in. Galebo says that there're too many. Demiurge says he knows, and says that they have to keep trying. However, he smells something, and grimaces.

The bandits close in more and more, when claws of black magic reach up from the ground and grasp at a few of them. The bandits look confuse and clutch at their chests, before starting to collapse. Galebo's confused, when that wolf from the city appears. Sonil says he thought he'd keep an eye on the group, and then he runs in to join them, holding his shovel like one would hold a spear. And with that, the battle continues with the new ally. Sonil himself seems geared towards strength and luck, and he also seems geared towards status ailments. Among which includes his access to Bendigedig and Damnedig, two multi-target skills that have a chance of instantly defeating foes. And with their combined forces, players are able to overwhelm the massive amount of bandits.

With the lot of them down, the party members sigh and stand up, each turning to each other. Galebo asked what he was doing so close to the lot of them, to which the wolf explains that he has a vested interest in Demiurge's livelihood, and seeing that stranger that rose from the dead wander out the city, he felt he should keep an eye on him. Demiurge feels kinda weirded out, though he says he appreciates his help. Sonil nods while saluting, and asks what they're doing out here anyways. Galebo answers that Ruler Dawn requested that they clear up the trail so that the professors could safely travel to Ahan.

Sonil says that that sounds pretty tricky. Especially if the two of them are going at it like this. With that, Sonil joins the party, much to Galebo's chagrin.

;Augua 9th - Augua 17th

With this, players have their mission. Go along the Origlo-Ahan trail, approach one of four locations near the trail, and take care of the clump of enemies there. A simple mission, though players should be careful considering their pretty low party count.

Players progress, having to go along the trail in a southeast direction. The trail itself is fairly straight with a few curves here and there. Throughout, they may encounter ferals and bandits, each with various levels of difficulty though not too difficult. Players are also able to encounter other foes out on the plains beyond the trail, though they should be weary, because there are higher-level enemies past the trail. Beyond that, players also have particular destinations to go to to get rid of enemies. There're three to clear, and players will run into them in order as long as they stick to the trail. 

The first destination is another patch of woods. And near said patch is a '''Wolf Horde''', which players will have to contend with fast. These guys are exceptionally dangerous at the start, as the larger their hp represents how many enemies are in the horde. Players will want to do a lot of damage fast, which becomes exceptionally helpful with both Sonil and Galebo, especially since the former's insta-kill translates to damage dealt to the horde. Thankfully, they're dealt with soon enough, and Galebo says that that's one more down, and says they've got a few more to deal with.

After that, further down the trail they'll find another patch of woods. And hiding inside is a '''Mother Bear''' and a '''Father Bear'''. The two are a hard hitting duo that rely on physicality, the player needing to worry about their defense. Worse, because of their status, Sonil's insta-kill doesn't work. Thankfully, he has other ailments, so he can hamper their abilities. Players will have to worry about their self-buffs and their smash/slash attacks. Fortunately, through smart planning players should be able to beat them. And with two parts of the trail cleared, Galebo says that there's one left. 

The third location is another patch of woods near the trail, and here, players encounter more bandits. This fight is fairly similar to the fight that introduced Sonil, a large amount of bandits that players have to work through in order to complete the encounter. Work and work they do, dealing with a wide variety of techniques from the enemy. And after enough work, the bandit group is also dealt with. And with that, Galebo says that that should've been the last location. She congratulates the group, and tells Sonil that he helped out a lot better than she'd expected. Sonil assures that it's all in a day's work, and supposes they should just return home. 

However, as they begin to head back, a stranger in the patch of woods appears to be watching them...
----
That night, Galebo's told Dawn the news. However, the next day, Dawn's given another message to the group. Now she's saying that the gate of '''Ahan''' is being targeted by some foul enemy! Reports from the city says that those that try and enter or exit are being assailed by gunfire! Demiurge remarks that that's awful! Galebo says that they'll have to work fast and investigate. This time, it's to the end of the trail!
----
With this, players can go through the trail again, this time their destination being over towards the ocean-bordered city of Ahan, its entrance guarded by a thick wall and gate. They approach the gate, and Galebo pipes up, saying that this is where those reports of the assaulter are being made. She tells Demiurge they should only proceed if ready. And, at the player's behest, they go forwards.

They start to progress, the party members scanning around carefully. From a nearby set of woods, Sonil notices a glint. His eyes widen and he races forwards, bringing his shovel up to block a sniper shot with the head. The other two are surprised, though they're quick to race in the direction of the gunshot. They run out to the woods, and soon see a snake man in lightweight rags and hoisting a sniper rifle. He's slithering deeper in, and his goons block the way to him. Galebo orders him to stop, saying that he's hereby a wanted criminal. The snake, however, declares that it's not his time to retire, that he needs to keep sending those higher ups a message.

Demiurge asks what he could possibly mean to message any of them. The snake says that he intends to tear down their rotten little society. They constantly tell them to reach for the heights of arts, that that is the sign of success. However, they're all ensnared by people that've either already reached the heights of arts, or had lots of money to give them a head start. Meanwhile, guys like him were forced into poverty and obscurity, just because guys before him could perform better than he could hope to, and had more money than he'll ever see, money that got them a step up on the artistic process. 

Galebo declares that he's just blaming everyone else for his own problems. He should've made his own money, he should've improved his own skill, and he shouldn't expect to turn to banditry just because he doesn't have fans. Sonil becomes noticeably uncomfortable. The snake aims at her, offended that she'd make light of his situation. It's not about fans, it's about him not being recognized enough to even make rent, him not being recognized enough to feed himself. He says that for all their talk about how unnecessary fame is, they neglect how much is necessary to actually live! Galebo rolls her eyes and says that they can't reason with this guy.

With that, players are forced into battle with '''Darius the Sniper'''. Darius himself isn't terribly damaging, though he's known for applying debuffs. More worrying for this fight are the bandits in front of him. Darius has a passive that makes it so he can't be targeted unless he's the only target. AOE magics can hit, but there's usually a nice mix of resistances that makes it so AOE isn't optimal for damage. Players should try and focus on wearing down his forces as fast as possible so they can create an opening to attack him, or maybe even get a Knock Down so they can boost an AOE attack. Players should be weary, for Darius has a skill that allows him to summon allies to battle. With enough work, though, players should be able to dispatch of Darius's goons, as well as the snake himself.

The snake's collapsed and is panting. He's huffing and puffing, and Galebo and Sonil step forwards. Galebo says that he will hereby be imprisoned and face trials for his charges. She thus asks Demiurge to take him away. Demiurge nods, albeit a little uncomfortable, and thus takes the snake by the shoulder and begins leading him up the trail. Darius, meanwhile, tries to struggle, though he can't fight off any of their grips...
----
That night, Darius is brought to one of Origlo's jails. The group's parted, except for Demiurge and Sonil. There, Sonil asks Demiurge how he felt after that. Demiurge can thus answer "Good" or "Uncertain". Either way, Sonil says that there's an unfortunate truth to what that guy said. Sonil himself was born here, but when his parents couldn't make ends meet, they dropped him off. He's since tried to do some artwork, only to be really sloppy. He's tried to get help in it, but the classes he'd needed were too expensive. He's lucky to've gotten the stinky old gravekeeper job, there are others who don't even get that.

Top that off with people constantly telling him it's his fault... He admits, it gets a bit tough to try and seem nice. Who knows what the less fortunate must be going through. Demiurge starts to get silent. And at that, Sonil says he probably shouldn't have put that much information on you. He supposes he should go back and try and mull over that info on his own time, he'll continue his own job. 

;Augua 18th

On this day, Demiurge and Galebo meet up with Dawn. And there, she thanks them. They'd made a quick search of the trail, and everything's safe. Galebo says she's done only what she needed. Dawn then turns to Demiurge, and tells him that she'd like him over the city and meeting with some of the more bigwigs of the city. The professors will be communicating with Ahan's professors, though their focus is in the field of Dance, Song, and Performance.

Demiurge remarks that that sounds interesting. Galebo then says that he should be careful. Lots of talented performers means lots of degenerates to go after them. She also warns that he should keep whatever he has to show those performers behind closed doors. Demiurge seems unsure of just what she's talking about, though Dawn clears her throat to get his attention. The quetzal says that everyone's planning on heading out on the 21st. So, she offers them to pack up. She expects a three day stay.

With that, the meeting breaks, and they head back.
----
Shortly after, Demiurge meets up with Sonil. He says that they're planning on heading out to Ahan. He wonders if he'd like to tag along, though Sonil says that he can't really afford to head out. He's still gotta tend to the boneyard. Demiurge apologizes, though Sonil tells him not to. They can still hang out while he's in Origlo. Plus, he's only staying for three days, right? Demiurge affirms that.

So, Sonil nods in affirmation, and tells him "good luck" with packing.
===Midway===
;Augua 18th - 20th

Following his meeting with Sonil, players are able to spend the next few days doing whatever they wish. Sidequests, hanging out with party members, supplying, so on. It's a simple matter of preparing for the trip and getting ready for whatever might happen in Ahan. And then, come the night of the 20th, the guards in Dawn's setting remind him to be ready tomorrow, and Demiurge nods. He then goes and rests.

;Augua 21st

On this day, the Dragon wakes, and he walks over to the gate towards Ahan. There, he sees many professors, and he can hear several of them bemoan the long walk. One of them says that someone should make a really big carriage. Demiurge searches around the crowd, and eventually finds Galebo, who waves him over. He gets next to her, when they're joined by a lithe blue jay in a beige suit. He sees Galebo and asks if she's been hanging out with the Dragon. The komodo dragon says that she was chosen to guide the handsome shaper of history.

The blue jay remarks that that's quite interesting. He'd only gotten passing glances of the divine being, and being up close to him, he can practically feel that incredible aura. He turns to the Dragon and introduces himself as '''Doga'''. Demiurge shakes his hand and introduces himself as Demiurge. Doga asks him how he feels about the environment itself, to which players can answer "It's very pretty" or "It's... something..." Either way, Doga answers that he's always been quite invested in the natural beauty of the world, and has actually been studying into the applications of personally affecting the environment to make it more aesthetically pleasing. Galebo says that they're kind of busy, to which Doga nods and apologizes, saying he kind of got too excited. He blushes and backs into the crowd. 

Either way, several of the guards approach. They tell the group that they'll be heading out now. The guards have planned on housing for each of them, and that they recommend they stick near them if they feel threatened. They also recommend to stay in the market, only parts of the performance district, and only parts of the residential district. With that, the guards turn, and tell the group to move out. And with that, the crowd makes the long march across the Origlo-Ahan trail.
----
They walk and walk, and thankfully, they don't have to worry about issues. They make it to the gates of Ahan, the ocean-bordering city. The gates open for them, and they press forwards, at which Demiurge's eyes widen. The gate opens into what appears to be the market district, the initial opener being a long strip from the opening towards the end of town, with several people having set up stands around the main road, and with many performers around, from people playing instruments to people painted gray and posing as statues, to people performing magic tricks. 

Noticeably, the street lamps here are electric-based instead of gas-based like in Origlo, and the lightbulbs are shades of pink, bathing the streets in a fancy hue. The buildings around also featured less curves and angles than in Origlo, and they were more like straight-edged buildings. The buildings themselves also feature signs displaying various services, and branching towards the left and right of the main road are more buildings for services. The main road ends at the other end of town, at the other end of which there's a fairly large building with more curved/pointed architecture than the rest of the buildings. This building's remarked as the entrance of the '''Neptunian Stage'''.

The guards tell the group that with how late it is, they'll be taking their rooms before they meet anybody. They have some free time before they have to check in, so in the meantime, they're free to examine the markets and performers. With that, the crowd spreads, and Demiurge is free to check out the sights. In the process, players will get to witness a few street performances and check out items they can get here that they can't get back in Origlo. Professors checking out the performers will remark about how pedestrian the performers are.

Besides that, there are a few key areas players are prompted to check out before moving the plot along:
*Neptunian Stage Entrance: Demiurge looks over at the entrance there. And there, a lemur boy ticket master notices him. He asks the Dragon if he's interested in the performances, to which Demiurge nods. The lemur says that performances will be on the 23rd. Demiurge asks who's performing, to which the lemur asks if he's new in town. The Supreme Sirens, vixens of scales with voices as pretty as the wind as it whistles through valleys. He says it'll be a miracle to witness.
*Tourist Tide: Demiurge finds his shoulders brushing against the ceiling as he steps forwards. He finds various pictures of various performers, various photos of the sky shining a hue similar to the purple lights of presumably the Neptunian Stage, and pictures from above of the stage itself, which seems to depict several platforms hanging in or above the water, creating a fountain-like effect as it pours into the ocean while performers are on risen parts of said platform that don't touch the water. Doga is seen hanging in here and checking out the various pictures, and even spying a few more casual shirts with risque phrases on them, mugs with similar phrases, and what appear to be plushies of, judging by the photos, performers.

After checking out the areas, Demiurge remarks that it's late, and he should probably go to that hotel they talked about. He says he'll look for Galebo. Talking to her prompts the story to move along, and so the guards and professors walk through the streets, heading over into the residential district. They progress, and as they do, they notice the buildings around were decorated in a more magenta pattern with reflective stones in the concrete. It seemed like the hotels around here were meant to be decorated different from the rest of the buildings. They progressed northwards more and more, before eventually arriving at a hotel.

They step in, and the lobby has a fresco depicting Demiurge himself alongside Mimzy, Tsoa, Beau, and Maje. The rest of the lobby has some fancy-looking couches, a check in desk, a hall to lead to rooms and a staircase, and, Demiurge needed it explained to him, a "gambling hall". Galebo says that that should be fun to check out later, just be careful who you talk to. Following that, they head up the stairs, and each check into their rooms. And inside, Demiurge realizes how tired all that walking made him, and collapses on his bed.

;Augua 22nd

This day, the various professors wake up, and are in the process of making sure they're alert for the day. Among which includes Demiurge and Galebo, who are already down to the lounge. Galebo says that the professors are intended to meet up with other instructors in the afternoon, and Demiurge himself will be expected there with the lot of them. In the meantime, he can do some stuff he wishes. Demiurge says that he is pretty interested in this area, and that he's excited to check it out.

With that, players are allowed to do some things in the new town.
*Gambling - Players can visit the gambling hall in the hotel in order to gamble. They can participate in slots, roulette, and blackjack, relatively quick games. The hall itself is in a low lighting and is designed in a more aesthetically pleasing fashion than real life casinos: the tables and slots are arranged such that participants can more easily maneuver around the location, smooth carpeting, and ornaments boasting the symbol of the dragon hang from the ceiling. A few people in the hall can be overheard praying for the Dragon to give them luck.
*Shopping - Players can check out the various shops around the market place. The shops available here are fairly similar to those from the other night, except stat-enhancing items aren't available. Other than that, there's a raccoon man named '''Jesh''' in this shop selling weapons and armor with funky effects to them at the expense of their stats. Other than that, not terribly much to look at.
*Strange Person - In the residential districts near the hotel, players will notice someone maneuvering through, them wrapped up in a lot of clothing. Seeing them, Galebo warns Demiurge that there's still weirdos out on the prowl, so he should be mindful if he's thinking of exploring. Investigating the strange person will lead to the plot continuing, though players are prompted to choose whether or not to pursue them.

Having looked into them, the stranger is seen going through the passages, peering around in concern as they progress. They eventually make it to a shady-looking corner, where some rough-looking guys are hanging. One's a scorpion guy, one's a skunk woman, one's a rat lady. The scorpion ask the guy if anyone saw them. The stranger shakes their head. He then turns to the skunk, who brings out a bag and holds it in front of the stranger, who begins to search their pockets.

They pull out a pouch of money, and hand it over. The rat takes the pouch and begins quickly counting it, before answering that he's light. The guy in the cloak says that that has to be enough. He double checked before coming over. The skunk asks if he checked the updated price. They should've sent it over this morning. The stranger says that they were already out at that time! How's he supposed to respond to the price change in such short notice?! The scorpion man then says that it doesn't matter, that right now he has to get them a good million.

He says that he can't possibly get that much. The skunk lady starts to pull away, though the stranger reaches out pleadingly. The scorpion then tells him that if he's that concerned, then he can always put it on his debt... again. And if they're so concerned, then surely they can work something out. After all, He's sure a man of his... stature... can get a few guys interested. Surely they can work something out. At this point, Demiurge and Galebo are curious, and begin to press forwards. 

They see the duo, and ask them what they're doing. Demiurge speaks up and says that it sounds like they set this guy up on a raw deal. The stranger tries to wave them off, and insists that this is private business. Demiurge, however, insists that he's going to take care of this. The skunk tells him if he insists on this narc operation, she'll be more than happy to destroy him. Demiurge carefully pulls the stranger behind him and Galebo and tells him to step back. Hearing that, the stranger is stunned for a moment and looks on while the strange trio approaches. 

He then takes the clothing all around him, before tugging them off. He's now revealed to be a snake guy with blue scales, lower half a tail upper half a torso, and pink highlights through his form and vibrant, shining clothing clinging tightly to him. Demiurge's surprised by the appearance and asks just who he is. Galebo recognizes him and asks if he's... Demiurge realizes it himself, and realizes that this guy's one of the performers, '''Halla'''. The snake says that he's not going to let the two threaten themselves on his behalf!

With that, players are forced to fight the '''Filthy Trio'''. The enemies prove relatively tricky, each having a skill to poison party members. Fortunately, Halla has the means of helping. He has summon magic so that party members can repeatedly have Hadfer or Cymorth Cyntaf, healing them and undoing ailments. Additionally, though Halla officially wields a ribbon, that translates to him dancing elegantly to overwhelm foes. He's very agile and a good support, and with his combination of attack prowess of healing, players are able to overwhelm the baddies. 

With them down, Halla sighs and says that they shouldn't be bothering anyone for a while. He thanks the two for their assistance, and asks them if he can do anything for them. Demiurge assures that it's fine, though Halla insists that he needs to do something for them. At this point, he recognizes them, saying that they're here to converse with the instructors. He says that he'll arrange something for them. Demiurge offers, though Galebo is uncertain. Halla thanks him, and runs off after dawning his disguise garb. 

With that, Galebo said she hadn't expected to've interacted with any of the performers. Demiurge wondered whether or not they were people that their group were supposed to interact with. Galebo answers that they were supposed to, but not until this night. She wonders what he could possibly have planned for them, and what Halla was dealing with... Curious, she examines the bag, and finds a lot of drugs. They'll have to have these disposed of properly before some other degenerate gets their hands on them.
----
Shortly after, the duo makes it back to the hotel. And here, players are thusly required to go into conversation with the instructors. It's a fairly lengthy process, and Demiurge has to admit he's starting to doze off. He keeps on trying to listen though. Eventually, the many instructors in the area feel satisfied in what many of the others had told them, with several others conversing with classrooms. Eventually, the instructors stop, and the guards approach Demiurge and Galebo.

They say that they've been chosen to meet with the performers. Demiurge perks up at this, and says he's quite interested. Galebo says that their art's very spontaneous in comparison to the drawn work. They'll be fortunate to have professionals around to capture their performance. Demiurge says she should probably lighten up on them. Either way, the guards decide to escort them. 

They're led to the Neptunian Stage the inside brandishing pearly architecture with frescos depicting what appeared to be multiple performers. They appeared to be of many different species, though were very skinny and athletic. They're led in more, alongside Doga. The trio's led in more and more and brought up a few stairs, before eventually being led to a door with a star emblem over it. Demiurge asks what the star's meant to signify, to which Galebo explains that stars are looked up at, so those that're deemed pinnacles of mortal-kind are denoted as "stars". Professors like them are above such pedestrian terminology though.

They make it to the room, and inside, they see a fairly big room with some cushy furniture around, though there's also several desks set up with mirrors and makeup, and there are separate rooms from this: Vocals, and Dance. Seated at the cushy furniture are the performers Demiurge's seen hints of several times. One is the snake from before, Halla. Another is a dragon slug man with a slender frame but long frills extending from its limbs, them a haunting blue color, this one named '''Bnent'''. Another is a seaweed dragon lady with similar frills, though having a more grassy look to her, this one named '''Haun'''. The other is an oarfish man, taller than any in the room and boasting a navy blue body with red fins and a mohawk-like mess of frills, this one named '''Megie'''. And the last is an ethereal creature with a translucent body, lights shining in her and wing-like arms, her being a bit more heavy-set than the others, this one known as the leader '''Dana'''.

The quintet sees the group, and Halla waves excitedly. Dana sees the Dragon, and says it's quite an honor, having the Dragon join them. Demiurge says that he's more than happy to be before them. Haun declares that the pleasure is all theirs. Hearing the Dragon would be able to grace them, they felt it more than appropriate that they may grace him with the fruits of their labor. Bnent says that they pray their physicality and their voices may serenade the dear Dragon. Galebo wonders if they really brought him here to seduce him to their arts, to which Dana explains that that is not all at all. They wish to legitimize their art, and what better way than with the Dragon appraising them? 

Demiurge looks towards Galebo curious, and the komodo dragon furrows her brow, saying she's not certain. Megie swears that it'll be fun if nothing else. They may not have pens or brushes, but their art will chisel themselves into his brain and his heart. Demiurge says that this is part of the reason they were here, he supposes he may as well. With that, Halla says that it's time for his treat: the VIP room! The professor seems surprised, though she's happy to take some vip. 

Dana says that the request was fairly irregular, but they were able to arrange a room for either of them. And so, they decide to have their guards lead them to their rooms. With that, two pairs of guards go on either side of Galebo and Demiurge, and walk them out. Galebo's set in one, and Demiurge is set in the other, both rooms being in the stage itself. Demiurge steps in, and finds a very lavish room. It's significantly three times as large as his room at Origlo's, and boasts a giant bed. There's also a set of tables with many cakes, donut holes, well-done meats, and fruit platters.

Demiurge gorges himself, before going to bed, sleeping nicer than he has beforehand.

;Augua 23rd

This morning, Demiurge wakes up and climbs out of the giant bed, inwardly remarking that it feels like he's crawling through quicksand. However, through much struggle, he's able to climb out of the bed and makes it to the door. And there, he's greeted by guards. They offer to lead him to his seat, prime viewing for the performance. Demiurge thanks him, and he's thus led, soon joined by Galebo.

They're lead through the halls, and soon make it to a door that leads to a balcony attached to one of the highest points in the stadium. There they sit on plush seats, and they look down at several hundred people looking on the performance, though a few in rags are seen being escorted out by brawny guys. The stadium is set such that long rows of chairs are curled around in several layers to look down at several platforms hovering over the ocean, said platforms having water pouring from them and having raised sections of floor that're dry.

The platforms lower below the lowest set of seats, and there is palpable silence among the onlookers. And then, the platforms raise back to their normal positions, though right now, Dana is on the highest platform and has with her a microphone-like device that seems to amplify her voice. She also has in her hands a violin. One platform lower is Halla himself, joined by Megie, the two of them wielding ribbons that contrast each other. And a platform below that is Bnent and Haun, either wielding trumpets.

Dana talks into the device, explaining that this performance is very special. She points in the vague direction of the vip section, and tells them that this is for them. With that, she begins singing while playing a tune that starts slow, Halla and Megie making sure they're prepared. And then, the two below start playing, turning the mood more pumped up and cheerful while Dana plays faster. And in tune, Halla and Megie flick their ribbons out to make sure they're completely unfurled, before they each swirl around each other. 

The ribbons race around in a vortex-like fashion, creating a mutli-color maelstrom on that platform. Dana keeps signing as she keeps up her tune, the serpentine-like dancers expanding their arc to make sure more of themselves were visible. They throw in moves of their own, from flicking their tails under the other with the other jumping over, to corkscrewing past each other while they arrange themselves in a ring-like fashion to make it more daring, even utilizing each other's bodies to glide around more easily. 

The song starts to climax, and as it does the duo split and begin racing down the fountains created by the platforms, jumping down to one of two lower platforms each. Throughout the performance, their ribbons made sure no one could lose sight of them. They danced more and more and raced down the waterfalls before doing solo dances on those platforms, gliding along the slick surfaces. Eventually, the high pace slows down, and they race down to the bottom platform, the one with the trumpeteers on them. And when down, Bnent and Haun put in their final notes as the two serpentine creatures race along the water-soaked exterior of that platform, before locking arms to halt their momentum and pose for the crowd, their ribbons whipping out to full length far to either side of the platform.

And at that, Dana slows down her own playing, and gives her final notes. With that, the performers bow, and the many stands are filled with the loud applause of the many onlookers. Demiurge himself is amazed, now at the point where he's standing up and leaning forwards to get a good view of the performance. By now, the platforms begin to lower, and that's everyone que to begin leaving. The guards are there to help guide the duo out of the vip section.
----
After that, the group meets up with the performers, who've made it back to the hall outside their rooms. They ask the group what they thought, to which Demiurge says that that was absolutely phenomenal. All the spirals and the swiftness and- Demiurge swears he felt like he was witnessing a dream. He'd never imagined seeing anything quite like that. Galebo says that it served for a very unforgettable moment. She'll probably memorize those notes for a long time. Dana thanks them for their work, and Halla, while knowing that they'll be leaving today, hopes that he can see them again. 

Demiurge thanks them for having them, and so they begin to be led out. They soon find themselves out on the market district, and they can see the other professors conglomerating. They begin heading out, and Demiurge and Galebo are hanging together. As they do, Demiurge says that that was a really nice performance. Galebo remarks that it was, thought it's a shame it'll fade away. The Dragon asks what she means. 

She says that it's not like the written word or the inked page. You can't preserve performance, you can't even capture the atmosphere of it and enchant another unless they saw it. They'll remember it, sure, but it'll either leave the memory, or those with the memory disappear. Demiurge says that that's insane. They've got merchandise, they've developed an intricate stage, that's their tourist attraction. Galebo says that it is a vehicle for just one more set of stars. And, unfortunately, stars fade. Demiurge says that a performance like that won't just fade.

The komodo then asks the Dragon how many people he remembered from his time in the past. Demiurge thinks, and answers he can remember many different faces and many different people he helped. Galebo then asks how many of those names popped up in the modern era. And at that, the Dragon gives pause, and finds himself unable to bring up a proper answer. Galebo says that that's her point: these stars are a drop in the bucket. They're a passing trend that quickly gets filled in by someone new. People went gaga over the first group, then the second, then the third. And just like those before, they faded. They'll have merchandise, but that will be replaced by others. They have the stadium, but that will house a new one.

Demiurge asks why she said what she did to the quintet, to which she explains that few can accept the truth.
----
That night, Demiurge returns home and, feeling too tired to really do anything else, he rests. He supposes he should chat with Sonil tomorrow to maybe clear his head a little. And as he lays down, he inwardly remarks that this is nothing like the other bed...


;Augua 24th

On this day, Demiurge wakes again, and after that previous trip, the many professors were out and about in Origlo and enjoying their free time. The Dragon himself felt the need to enjoy his own free time, and so stepped out. And at this point, the Dragon thought to himself that he may want to chat with Sonil, it's been a little while. With that, players are prompted to go to the graveyard. And there, they find the wolf at the shack outside the graveyard, some people visiting. 

Sonil sees Demiurge, and asks him what's up. With that, Demiurge explains what went on over in Ahan, and he specifically talks about how fancy the city was, the hotels, about Halla, and especially about that amazing performance. Sonil remarks that it's hard to imagine that all happening. Finding out a famous performer's dirty little secret, and seeing a mind-bending show, that's a wild couple of days. Demiurge says that it's a bit more than wild, though the wolf shrugs. 

He says that he'd hung out near those less fortunate in the city, thought he'd get a read on others' opinions after that one sniper they ended up fighting. He says that it sounds like there's a lot of resentment around the general populace. Demiurge asks if it's the same anger, to which the wolf says it sounds pretty similar. Lots of guys got opportunities they couldn't get, got to make stuff before they could, and got recognition before they could have it. There are even a few that say they got their work stolen and were left on the street.

Demiurge says that that sounds awful. Sonil says that there's not much they can do about it either way. He saw how Galebo reacted, there's no way Dawn will change, not unless the majority's affected by this issue. Demiurge ponders to himself, remarking that he might be able to do something... Though first, he personally thinks that he should check out the rumors for himself. Sonil also suggests that if the opportunity comes up, he should check out Halla's issue too. Well off people usually don't owe druggies stuff.

With that, players are thus prompted to go around town to converse with various characters to learn about their issues with the system.
==Military==
===Early===
;Jusis 12th

Demiurge progresses more and more. And when he steps out, he sees an odd community, very different from what the old intelligentsia ran. It seemed to be a small community with stone walls and brick houses within. He'd also see chimneys on a few of them and see smoke pouring from their insides. Among the buildings, at the far end of the city is what looks to be one stone building, larger than the others with metal frames around it. Demiurge grows curious at the sight, and approaches. 

Demiurge crosses the gate, and there, he sees people around in tunics, some boasting sheets of metal strategically placed around their body and those same somebodies with metal weapons. Those in the city see the Dragon, and look on with surprise. Demiurge himself looks across the many people, trying to mentally accept that these guys came from the neanderthals way back. He walks more and more, when a few of the guys with metal over them approach him. They say that the Dragon's been causing curiosity around here, so his presence is requested by the king. 

Demiurge isn't sure what they mean by that phrase, but he chooses to follow suit. So, he allows the guards to lead him through the streets, and towards that building with the metal frames...
----
He finds himself led into the building, it itself set up with numerous hallways and rooms, the walls being really thick, and there being slots through the wall that some archers can be seen standing at. The guards lead him through the halls, them assuring that the king will make sure he knows where everything's at. They progress through the halls, needing to take a few turns before eventually taking some stairs up to the upper floor. Then they progress through more halls, before eventually arriving at a room even bigger than the campsite in the Stone Age. And at the far end of the room was a big chair with a young jackal seated on it, and a stallion right next to him.

The jackal boasts shadow-black fur, a red velvet cape from his shoulders, and an actual suit of metal as opposed to the limited amount of covering other guards have. The jackal also has on his head a crown of bronze, it designed in such a way that it almost looks like he's wearing draconic horns. He also has, on the side opposite from the stallion, a hand on the shaft of an axe. The stallion beside him stands at 1.25 times Demiurge's height, seems really muscular, and also wears the limited amount of plating. he also has hanging from his back a two-handed sword. 

The jackal looks a little uncertain, though he still tries to smile invitingly. He gets out of the throne he sat on and approached, looking like the armor on him weighed a ton, though whether that was because of nerves or because the suit was actually weighty was uncertain. He extends a hand and greets the Dragon, saying that he was surprised to hear of someone like him appearing. He says that a creature like him has only been told of once in history. Demiurge asks if he's referring to the Stone Age, because that was him. 

The jackal is very much uncertain about that story, though the Dragon swears it's true. He's spoken with each of the intelligentsia, he helped guide them in the procession of mortal kind, he helped stave off the monsters. The jackal furrows his brow, before returning to his throne. He says that he certainly knows things others shouldn't. Demiurge asks what he means. The king explains that while the royal family knows of matches Demiurge's account, though the public believes that Rugar and the Dragon, and those two alone, had led the people. And in the process, Demiurge had ended up sacrificing himself for the mink's sake. 

Demiurge asks if he really means that, that the others aren't mentioned. The jackal says that it was deemed necessary a long time ago. The people started with people leading them to greatness, it needs people to continue leading them to greatness. Shortly after they attempted a group rule, but there were many conflicts and a lot of their work ending up stalling. So since then, they'd work towards burying the other rulers to try and limit rule to that of one family. And, well, since then they've gotten to where they are now.

Demiurge thinks back, and hearing that, he supposes he has a point. It was very rare back where he's from for multiple Dragons to rule one planet. The jackal raises a brow at that, though Demiurge says that that's a long story. Right now, they should contend with this era. He wishes to keep leading the world. The jackal nods and thanks him. He extends a shaky hand and introduces himself as '''King Maris'''. Demiurge shakes his hand and introduces himself. The jackal also introduces the stallion as '''Captain Gonal'''. Demiurge greets the stallion, and with that the jackal admits that, well, he could use a lot of help.

He's the latest in a line, and has only started ruling for a month. His parents, meanwhile, have went out elsewhere to try and set up another city for their growing population. Now, well, he's kind of been struggling. At this, Demiurge notices that the jackal seems shaky. If Demiurge really is who he says he is... he needs his help. The Dragon seems a little uncomfortable at that proclamation, and asks what's been going on before he got here. The jackal says he's been relying on those under him to make decisions, but he swears he feels them judging him, and he's certain that his rule is being questioned. 

Demiurge tells him to calm down, calm down. He's here, he'll definitely help. Maris thanks him, though Demiurge inwardly asks how he's going to do this, he's just as clueless!
----
Right now, Demiurge and the duo head out to one of the doors on the upper floor, ending up on a portion outside the upper floor that looked over the grassy field outside of the city. Also out here, the Dragon sees a few dummies set up: a set of potato sacks with buttons sown on them strapped to wooden beams. Demiurge asks what these are, to which Gonal says that here is where some of the warriors train. Guys step out here to make sure they're in good form in combat. This form of training is limited on account of the target not fighting back, though they're researching into potentially fixing that.

Maris speaks up and says that they'd like to see Demiurge work his magic. The Dragon says he can, but if he's going to, he thinks they should act as well. Maris says that that's fair, and Gonal assures also. With that, the trio lines up, and a fight starts with the '''Training Dummies'''. During this, each warrior is prompted to perform how they wish, and during it, players find that Maris is an intense warrior that focuses on self buffs to improve attack and defense, and Gonal is a fairly defensive warrior that deals with buffing up allies, and he even has some very minor healing power. 

After a bit of beating the dummy, Maris sighs and sheathes his axe, Gonal doing similar with his sword. The jackal tells Demiurge that that was an admirable workout. Demiurge says that they're not bad themselves. The Dragon's sort of just woken up, so he's surprised he did well. Maris seems surprised at that news. The jackal says that they're going to have to document just what is up with these Dragons, especially if he mentioned that there's more. Demiurge says that he's happy to explain, and right now, Maris says it's starting to get late, so they should probably turn in. In the meantime, he'd like to ask a few questions.

Gonal says that he'll keep eyes on the guards in the meantime, and Maris thanks him. With that, the groups part...
----
Eventually, they make it to another portion of the castle, a room with several books on rows of shelves. Maris says that here contains many stories depicting the tales of travelers from the old world to their current city, '''Hosha'''. There also sit a few tales produced by dreams and hallucinations, tales that hadn't happened. There also stand tales depicting the physiology of various people of various different body structures, and here, in the castle's study, he intends to depict the tale of the once disappeared Dragon. 

They approach a desk carved from mahogany, and Maris sits at one end while Demiurge sits at the other. He then pulls out slips of paper and a quill, while the Dragon feels slightly uncomfortable. He admits that it feels kind of awkward, he hasn't really been asked to talk much about himself. Maris assures that it's alright. They'll take all the time they need, and Demiurge can take however much time he needs to answer their questions. And if a question becomes too tough, they can skip it. 

With that, he first asks what's led him here, aiding the people of this world. Demiurge explains that growing up, several Dragons around him flew out to other planets to lead them. And, hearing about various tales of prosperity and of cool things mortals did, he personally wanted to experience it. So, he asked his caretaker, '''Sophia''', for something like this. Dragons his age didn't have the power to make worlds, so Sophia made a planet with life on it, and then sent him down to lead them. Maris nods along and writes down the information Demiurge talked about. 

He asks where he was before he was here, and at that, Demiurge describes the Draconic Gardens, a city floating through the void between worlds that housed many Dragons. It was awesome, a realm of pretty houses, outstanding architecture, grand fountains of Elder Dragons, and it was lively. Maris remarks that he can't imagine a city that sounds as great as this, though Demiurge says they've just started, they'll get there eventually. Anyways, on here he remembered frequently going to various open parts of the world to be taught about Dragons by Sophia. 

Maris also feels that they should talk about other Dragons. He mentioned older Dragons, and even Elder Dragons. What's up there. Demiurge says that Dragons are immortal, though Sophia's warned that a world ending event would end them. Fortunately, few mortals have ever gotten that powerful. Anyways, as for the Elder Dragons, they're Dragons that've existed ever since the creation of the universe, and that they'd helped to train the Dragons into the society they currently live in. Sophia herself is actually an Elder Dragon, and she's one of the most powerful beings ever. 

Maris asks how powerful they can get, to which Demiurge whistles and ponders where he should start. He himself is pretty tough, though there are plenty others that are super strong. He's heard about some that've moved cities, some that've fought meteors, some that've had to withstand a geyser from a sun... He starts to giggle, and the jackal asks what's so funny. Demiurge just says he remembers a few tales about Dragons needing to be really careful. He's ended up hearing a few stories about how some Dragons ended up breaking wind and destroying anywhere from 1/6 to 7/8 of a mountain. Maris grimaces at that imagery, though tentatively jots down notes on his paper. 

After that, he asks for information on the Elder Dragons' power. Demiurge says that it's really been a while since anyone's seen them act, though they know they're powerful. He asks if Maris has ever experienced any magical aura, an ethereal manifestation of one's magical reserves. Maris nods, and Demiurge says that those that get within several feet of one of them can feel that powerful aura. He wishes he could explain about their power, and talking right now, he wishes he could've actually seen Sophia act. Maris asks if she's been involved in the ruling of this planet, and Demiurge explains that she's been unusually hands off in comparison to before. She's left ruling in his hands, though occasionally steps in to point him in the right direction. 

Maris furrows his brow. He asks if this is usual, though the Dragon says that his whole situation's kind of different. Normally Dragons have to wait until adulthood and normally they create the worlds and the people on their own, and at that point they're usually apart from other Dragons and ruling independently. It actually tends to be a moment of celebration in the Gardens when someone comes up and shares tales. Maris jots down more notes. He says that this has been some interesting deliberation, but he'll have to come up with more questions later.

He says that he'll lead him to his old room, and that tomorrow, they'll go over some of the politics of Hosha. He hopes for their friendship to be prosperous. Demiurge thanks him, and shakes his hand. With that, the duo walks through the halls and makes it to a room a fair distance from the throne room. He says that this room was his parent's and that adjacent from it is the room he used to sleep in. Demiurge thanks him, and with that the two go into their rooms. 

Demiurge sees Maris's room, and finds it to be fairly small, boasting a bed that looks ever so slightly to small for him with a red velvet bed. He also sees basic sketches around the room of the mink and the Dragon from the Stone Age, and notices that he himself is depicted as significantly larger than he actually was, standing a couple feet taller than Rugar. Around the room are also short cabinets and a night stand with a candle on it, though it's currently out. He approaches the bed and lays on it, before going to sleep.

;Jusis 13th

This day, Demiurge wakes up, and the guards are quick to escort him from the king's old bedroom to the stairs that led him up to here. And once there, he'd see Maris and Gonal waiting for him. They greet the Dragon, and Demiurge says that they're supposed to look into the politics, right? Maris explains that that's the deal, yes. His parents had established laws, and had worked in a system meant to grant the government money thanks to the efforts of the people while paying them back. They call them taxes. Basically they're meant to pay a percentage of their earnings to stay in their houses, though as of late, it sounds like people have gotten in trouble trying to keep up their payments. 

In the time his parents left he thought at first it was just guys not keeping up with their payment, but it's gotten worse and worse. Demiurge asks if he's spoken with those that've lost their homes, to which he says that he's had guards talk with them, and he's gotten conflicting reports. Guards are saying that villagers have been squandering their money, and others swear that they're being forced to pay more and more. Demiurge furrows his brow, and players are offered some options: "We should compare payments" or "Let's ask them how much they pay". Maris says that that sounds like a good idea. 

With that, their mission is clear: go around the city, look into the slums where the homeless hang out, and ask them about their time in their houses. Throughout it, they gather more and more info, able to collect various prices various citizens have paid, as well as their work and their wages. With this, Maris wields the gathered info, and says that they should compare these payments to that of what was paid in the records. He also figures he should consult with the treasurer to make sure the payments match the appropriate percentage of their wages. It may take a while to make sure all of the numbers are up to snuff, but in the meantime, they should be free to pass the time while his subordinates run the town.

;Jusis 13th - Jusis 17th

With that, players have free time. Fortunately for the player, they have sidequests to complete, and land around the city to explore. Players are free to gather sidequests and build up social links and do whatever.

On the night of Jusis 17th, Demiurge and Maris are in the castle, and approached by a small cat guy, him named '''Droba'''. This cat is the apparent treasurer, and he says that he's completed his calculations. Maris thanks him for his work, and takes the documents from them. He looks over them and furrows his brow. He asks that these payments are the percentages paid by individuals, and these papers are the numbers collected, correct? Droba answers. Maris turns the paper towards Demiurge, and he notes that the numbers they collected have been growing in percentage. The Dragon asks what that means, and the jackal says that workers are being made to pay more and more, at least as far as their accounts suggest. The other documents, meanwhile, appear to be around the amount these individuals are supposed to pay.

Maris furrows his brow more as he looks between the numbers, and he says that this still isn't quite conclusive. He's had to trust his workers since his parents left, and yet this many people giving wrong yet specific numbers doesn't sound like a coincidence... He says that he should sleep on it, and that they'll have to contemplate their next movements. With that, the day wraps up.

;Jusis 18th

On this day, the trio meets up. Once there, Maris says that he contemplated at the news he gathered, and he understands that some of these numbers don't add up. He asks what that means, to which Gonal explains that if so many of the victims have been subjected to these increased payments, it probably means someone in staff is lying. Maris seems sullen, and says that that can't be, he's been putting his trust in these people. Gonal says that he understands it probably hurts, but if this kind of a transgression is going on, then they can't just sit back and let it happen. 

Maris furrows his brow and starts to pace. And then he turns to the Dragon. He asks the Dragon what he should do. At this, Demiurge says "Interrogate the collectors" or "Someone else will support you". Either way, the jackal takes a deep breath, and sighs. He thanks him, before stepping away so he can address them both. He says that if they're to move forwards, then they'll have to bring this information to the collectors. They need to weed out bad seeds for the sake of their people. 
----
Time passes, and it's now noon. Maris has sent out requests to gather up collectors in the castle. He says he's not sure what'll happen, so he asks them to be on the guard. Demiurge asks if they'll really attack them, to which the jackal answers that he doesn't know. He's never had this situation before. Either way, the group enters one of the rooms, and there they see around 10 people in robes and armor. One's a short lemur, one's a mid-height raccoon, one's a tall wolf, one's a tall fox, one's a great big horse, one's a short stoat, one's a medium robin, one's a medium sheep, one's a great big ox, and one's a big toad. 

Maris nervously wrings his hands, though Gonal steps up, taking up his documents. He turns to the collectors, and says that as of late, there've been issues brought up about the way the city is run. And among them is taxation. The wolf asks if they're really gonna listen to those whiners, to which Gonal says they have listened. Their reports show that their payments have been anti-proportional to the way things are meant to be, and have not lined up with certain collector reports. The toad says that of course they'll lie about their payment, and at this, Maris nervously speaks up. 

He says he actually asked their treasurer for some of the payments, and he was able to find payments that actually meet up with many of the impoverished. These reports run contrary to a certain few collectors: the wolf ('''Brank'''), the toad ('''Cathy'''), and the lemur ('''Mawnk'''). The other collectors look towards them, alarmed. The three glower, uncertain about what to do with the gathered info. The jackal approaches, and he tells the trio that he's not trying to attack them. He wishes for an explanation behind these discrepancies. The trio are, of course, quiet at first. Cathy suggests that that treasurer must be conspiring against them.

Maris starts to step back, though Gonal steps forwards. He says that many victims reported numbers accurate to the reports, and that they were people of various different backgrounds. He asks if they really expect them to believe that these strangers had conspired against members of the castle. The trio are silent again. Mawnk says that the boy seems to've gotten a bad idea in Gonal's head. He really needs to cool down, and in the mean time, the three of them will be happy to clear up the issues once they gather their documents. Maris seems ready to speak up, though Brank shoots him a look. With that, the jackal silences. 

There's a clearly uncomfortable air in the room, and Maris tells them that the issue will have to be paused for now. The other collectors can go. With that, those in the room leave, leaving behind Demiurge, Gonal, and Maris. Demiurge asks him why he let them go, and Maris says he can't help it. He's had this responsibility thrust on him, and he says that he can feel the judgement of everyone older than him. He can feel any judgement on his end being contested, and he doesn't want to threaten those under him. Gonal says he understands the sentiment, but they have clear evidence of tampering, and if they don't snuff out the problem here, then those other collectors might think that they can get away with it.

Maris sighs, and apologizes. he then says that they should probably try and relax. With that, players can do what they wish during evening that day, though Maris himself is unavailable.

;Jusis 19th

The next day, Demiurge and Gonal wake up. The horse tells the Dragon that the king's been sleeping in, he's recently checked on him though the jackal wished to continue sleeping. Demiurge asks if this is about yesterday, and Gonal says that it's very likely the case. Demiurge asks if that'll be a problem, though the guard says that the staff's tended to run by their own judgement for a while. Unfortunately, that won't bode well for the future. His parents ruled by their own judgement, and they'd expected Maris to follow suit. 

Whatever the case, Maris has to learn his lesson soon. Demiurge asks why he wasn't more firm in waking him then, to which he replies that he didn't want to bother him too much after the clear stress he's gathered. Anyways, the rest of the castle's starting to wake up, and he's going to go check the staff. He asks Demiurge to maybe see if he can coax the jackal out of bed, and the Dragon nods. With that, the two separate.

Demiurge makes it to the king's room and finds the king still resting. He pushes him a little, and the king mutters. He says he doesn't want to get up, though Demiurge says that Sophia always says you should be up by 9 at least. Maris turns away from the Dragon. The latter then decides to hoist him over his shoulder and walk out with him. They go through the halls some more, when Gonal bumps into them. He tells the duo that those three collectors haven't reported yet. Maris jolts and leaps off of the Dragon. He asks him what he means, to which Gonal says they're uncharacteristically tardy.

The group decides they should check out the rooms. The doors are locked, and they're eventually forced to break them open, and in each room, they find the collectors that were accused are missing. Maris declares that they need to perform an investigation, fast! Gonal asks what he thinks happened, clearly trying to prompt him to use critical thinking. The jackal gives pause, though answers that them all disappearing can't be a coincidence. Maybe... they're running cause they're scared of getting caught. Regardless, he'd like to organize some search party.
----
With that, players are able to do whatever they wish with the morning of this day. That night, the knights that Maris sent out return to him. They tell him that they were able to track the missing folks to the nearby forest. Maris says that there are reports of dangerous enemies in that area... He says that whatever is going on with them, they really should collect those collectors. Gonal says he can round up some guards, though the jackal tells him not to. He thinks that after his lenience, he should round those guys up.

Gonal seems happy with the news, and with that, the mission is at hand.

;Jusis 20th - Jusis 28th

With that, players are required to go westwards, to the forest regarded as the '''Ancient Forest'''. It's a fairly simple area, a set of woods that have ferals about, maybe a few turncoats from Hosha, and the woods themselves seem to've been worn down by travel and several patches of trees were stripped. The group presses forwards, and Maris says that this is where those collectors are supposed to be. He warns Demiurge that there are dangerous animals out there, plus it sounds like the collectors asked some underlings for assistance to aid them. He says they should be careful. 

With that, they progress through the forest. Their path proves fairly simple for most players. And as they progress, they eventually uncover a group of turncoat guards, among them being some chicken lady in less armored wear and boasting a rapier at her side. She sees Maris, and shudders. She asks if they're really going up against the king himself, to which the guards explain that that boy is no king. Either way, the guards try to attack him, though the players should be able to take care of them. Interestingly, the chicken herself doesn't act. 

With them beaten, the party investigates the chicken. She says she was trying to go protect her brother. If it meant hurting the king... she feels so uncomfortable. Maris says that he's thankful that she's willing to change. He still needs to take care of the detractors to make sure this transgression is taken care of. Meanwhile, as long as she fights alongside them, they can make sure her brother is safe. She thanks them, and thus swears that she'll keep them safe. She introduces herself as '''Flawnk''', battle mage. Maris thanks her for joining, and swears that they'll take care of the enemies non-lethally.
----
With a new ally in tow, the group progresses forwards, needing to work through more and more enemies. It's again a simple trail, and players should be able to handle the enemies, especially alongside Flawnk. She brandishes multiple low level magics, though thankfully has access to some healing herself, and a buff skill for magic/mentality. They work together, and are soon able to make it to the far end of the Ancient Forest, where a big tree sits. 

There, they see the toad, the lemur, and the wolf. Flawnk turns to the wolf and asks him what's going on. When he told her he'd need help, she never imagined she'd have to go against the young king! Brank sneers and says that this child is no king, he's left the duties of ruling on everyone under his thumb. He and his coworkers are more kings than Maris. Maris says that he's working his way into his rule, that he's going to show he can be what Hosha needs. He laughs at that, and says people like him know the people more than Maris himself does. So what if they made some more money? Don't they deserve it after carrying the boy on their backs this month?

Maris gives pause, though Demiurge steps forwards. He tells them that they can't be so judgmental over someone just starting. And even if they did, they can't act like they're being all noble when they're robbing the people! Flawnk agrees. Maris is a growing boy that needs to understand his stance. And no right man should steal money from the people they claim to know so well. He should understand that they're suffering because of them! Cathy huffs and says that this interrogation is getting out of hand. With that, they start to draw their weapons, though as they do, some rustling can be heard. Demiurge says he's getting a weird feeling, though Gonal says that they have to act, fast.

With that, players are forced to fight '''Brank, Cathy, and Mawnk'''. The first three turns seem almost like taking care of normal enemies, Brank with high agility and attack power, Mawnk with magic power, and Cathy using ailments and debuffs. However, each turn Demiurge swears he gets a weird feeling. They keep on acting, and eventually the third turn comes around, and if that happens, or if the trio are beaten early, the group can hear the sounds of claws scraping through the ground. The turn, and Demiurge's eyes widen as he spies a familiar foe. 

Suddenly from the brush behind the tree, a raptor appears, an aqueous aura around them as they lunge into the crowd. And when that happens, the trio are shocked, as are the party. Brank sneers, before suddenly getting an idea. He reaches into his pocket, drawing some chunks of meat he'd intended for their stay in these woods, before tossing it at the party. And at that, the raptor turns towards them and starts to stalk towards them. The trio steps up and Brank says that they can turn the tide now! 

With that, players continue fighting the trio and the '''Water Raptor'''. The raptor proves quite fast, wields water magic, though seems frail, thankfully. Still, players should be weary about the amount of damage it can cause. Especially while dealing with the rest of the trio. As they beat it, however, it grows desperate. At low health, it'll suddenly use a skill called Devour, finishing off one of the collector trio and claiming their hp for itself. Players will have to either completely remove its allies, or deal enough damage to it that it doesn't have a chance to use Devour.

After the tough fight, the raptor lets out a groan of defeat and falls down, while the rest of the trio has been overwhelmed from the fight, each lying wounded and too tired to fight. With that, Gonal steps forwards and says they're under arrest, Flawnk, meanwhile, checking to make sure the wolf is ok. He assures he's fine, though he's very much bleeding. The stallion begins to lead the trio back, while Demiurge and Maris looks over the raptor. He says that he didn't expect Monsters to be out here. He wonders if his parents' movement might've displaced them over here? Demiurge says whatever the case, they've got to be careful with these guys.


Either way, their mission is done here. Maris knows he'll have to make a decision with those three soon. He'll try and settle on a punishment, and in the meantime, they're free to do what they wish.

;Jusis 29th

On this day, Demiurge goes through the halls, seeing Maris leaning against the door by his bedroom. The jackal explains that he decided that those collectors would be imprisoned. He's settled on five years a stay, and he's lowering the sentence for those that can return the excess money they took. Demiurge says that that sounds like a good idea, to which Maris says he's glad he thinks so. Those collectors seem quite angry with him, and Brank seems adamant about keeping silent. 

Either way, Gonal himself seems ok with Maris's actions. He's finally giving guys like these what they deserve, and now people are going to understand that they should take him seriously. Maris supposes that he might have a point, but still he feels uneasy. Especially with Flawnk. She wanted him safe and though she was disappointed he'd be in prison, she seems to understand. Demiurge supposes he'll be safe locked up. Maris sighs and says he's not sure.

Either way, the taxation efforts seem cleared up on that end. That'll reduce some homelessness, but there were still people suffering even without guys motivated like those three. So, he's not sure whether or not there are more bad collectors, or if there's an issue with the taxation system itself. Either way, he feels he needs to unwind, and he thanks Demiurge for his help.
===Midway===
Demiurge's allowed to spend the morning doing whatever he wishes. After the time passes and evening comes, and Maris asks him to speak so they can discuss more about Dragons.

With that, they return to Maris's study, either sitting in their respective seats. He sets out the quill and takes a quill, and says that after recent events, he does have to ask something. He asks Demiurge about punishment. The latter asks what he means, to which the jackal says that Dragons sound like leaders of worlds, how do they handle punishment? To that, Demiurge furrows his brow and goes into deep thought.

He explains that he's known a few young Dragons that'd get a sharp talking to by Sophia when they got uppity. To many, the shout of a caretaker would leave a scar that'll never leave. Maris asks what about normal people? Non Dragons? Demiurge admits that he hasn't heard much about that. He's heard of Dragons that've nurtured their worlds into becoming wholly obedient and only ever follow the Dragons' word to the letter, while those that exercise free will among the people typically leave it to people to choose the punishment, while occasionally reeling them in if they feel they go too far. Maris asks why that is, to which Demiurge explains that Sophia always said that if you create a world where people aren't allowed to think for themselves or behave as they wish, then you haven't made a world of people: you made a world of dolls. She says that it's like that for children too. 

Maris pauses at that, and then asks in that case, is there a reason for kings? Demiurge pauses at that, though eventually settles that leaders've been necessary since the start of intelligent life. Maris supposes he has a point there, and jots down some information. He gives a pause, and then asks what'd they do to reel in violent people. Demiurge says he's heard them too giving harsh reprimands, and sometimes... sometimes he'd heard about them laying siege to violent folks. Maris says that he couldn't imagine power like that being turned against people like those collectors, to which Demiurge assures that that's not stuff that typically calls for the things he's heard.

Maris wipes his brow and says that he shudders to think about his next question... Has an entire world asked for such reprimanding. Demiurge tenses up as he thinks. He says none of his superiors told him outright, but he's heard gossip from young ones. He's heard of some Dragons deciding their world too much, deciding that they'd failed their people and they needed to start clean. So, they'd wipe out life on the world and move onto another, if not abandon their people entirely. Maris asks how they could do that to the people they grew, and at that, Demiurge admits that he thought them tall tales, cause he could never imagine someone like Sophia doing something like that.

Maris furrows his muzzle, and jots down the information. He admits that he thinks he should end the questions there, he has a lot to think about. Demiurge understands. With that, he decides to sleep, and so they all head to their beds. 

;Jusis 30th

The party wakes up, and here, Gonal says that Maris has made steps towards ruling in his own way, though these are only starter steps. He still has a long way to go. Maris answers that he knows that, he's just dealing with a lot at the moment. He can't even be sure that he can trust his own staff anymore. The two other party members share an awkward glance, before turning to the jackal. The stallion apologizes for getting confrontational with him. Maris says it's alright, though his spirits do not appear aided. 

Gonal suggests maybe they speak with the people some more. Maybe speak with Fawnk and others, the common people should offer him some insight into what to strive for in ruling. Maris supposes that's a good idea, getting a proper interview with the various people of this kingdom. So, he says that that'll be their mission for today.
----
With that, players are thusly requested to look into various important persons in the city and figure out what they request in their day to day lives.
*'''Fawnk''' - Fawnk is a scholar and tutor. She works at a library, and works towards collecting information and organizing it into parchments based on subjects. She's also been hired on several tutoring jobs, and through this, she's came to feel like the access to information for many kids seems limited. As such, she personally feels like there should be more opportunity for learning.
*'''Burk''' - A food seller in market, this bull works on tilling the fields and on collecting meat. He's paying his taxes, though he personally feels the tax line tends to be hard to reach, which means guys like him have to raise prices, which subsequently makes it harder for guys to buy. As such, he feels like taxes should be lower.
*'''Gola''' - A master of forging, this rhino lady's working on various metals to try and create gear requested of patrons and of guards. However, she personally finds metals harder and harder to come by. She's thinking that they've tapped out the veins around here, and so she thinks they should either expand outwards or dig deep into the earth.
*'''Voka''' - A raccoon guy that's working on toys, he's been working on designs for fun and entertainment. He personally feels like the atmosphere should be raised around here, and personally feels toys and games like what he's making could help raise spirit. So, he'd personally like to delve into others' psychology to try and figure what guys like him should try and appeal to.

The four have spoken, and taking the suggestions into account, Gonal says that these sound like good things to work on. So, he asks Maris what he thinks they should do. Maris pauses and furrows his brow. Eventually, he decides that he should go into the castle and consult on his options towards fixing these issues. He needs to figure out how to achieve either goal and what either achievement will mean for their kingdom.
----
That night, Maris is at his table and writing, furrowing his brow as he contemplates on answers to his conundrum. Demiurge asks how things are, to which he replies that he's struggling to really understand what he should do. Lowering taxes would mean less money for the government from everyone, which'd mean less pay for castle workers and less pay for services into the city. That also means their search for more metal will struggle. He's not sure how much money he'll be able to get from those that open more learning opportunities or those that look into psychology, but that also means figuring out a good screening process for that.

Gonal says it is a conundrum. Maris furrow his brow, before exhaling. He thinks that he'll have to swallow his pride. He'll have to reach out to his parents. The stallion asks if he's certain about this, but Maris says that he's in over his head. He decides that he should bring up the offered concerns with them. Gonal ass how they'll do that, the king and queen have gone far away. Maris knows that, which is why tomorrow they'll make the march. He'll even spring for one of their allies to help out the trail. Gonal still seems uncertain, though decides to let him go through with this.

With that, he asks them to meet at the front gate tomorrow while he gets an aid. Gonal asks if that should be left to him, though the jackal says he can handle it. With that, the party rests.

;Iuli 1st

Here, Demiurge, Gonal, and Fawnk wait out by the gates. Demiurge asks Gonal if he might know just who the king's getting. The stallion says he's not sure, there's many guards he could pick from. Fawn says that there're many well trained swordsmen, it could be anyone. Eventually, the Dragon looks ahead, and his jaw drops. Gonal and Fawnk look as well, and they too seem surprised. Maris is walking through town, holding a feral lion, boasting a majestic mane, by the leash. Said lion's also bearing drapery over its back bearing that Draconic symbol that's been popping up.

Fawnk gawks and asks if he's serious. Gonal says that '''Frederick''' cannot just be walking around. Maris assures that it's fine. The creature's been trained to be loyal to the royal family. He won't even bring out his claws without their command. Either way, if they're going to brave the road, they should have a real king of ferals on their side. Demiurge looks at the creature curious, and it seems to look back at him just as curious.

Either way, Maris says they haven't time to waste. They should knock this out in one day's trip. With that, Frederick joins the party, players can purchase item and equipment from the shops/kingdom, and then head out to the trail to the new kingdom.
----
Players step out on a trail paved by previous travelers. Said trail's known as the '''Expansion Trail'''. Fortunately, this isnn't a mission where players have to work on a deadline. However, players will be required to go along the trail in one go, which means going in with nothing but the clothes on your back and whatever you find. Players begin heading out, and as they leave the plains surrounding the city, northwards, Maris will warn that they're approaching less traveled territory, and to stay alert. 

They continue onwards, and begin leaving the "borders" of Hasha. And once out, here they enter the '''Land Beyond''', plains that bear many ferals and patches of woods and hills around. The only thing unnatural about it is the trail leading through it. They press forwards, though as they do, a pack of wolves notices the group. The party presses forwards, when suddenly, the wolves descend on them, hungry. Maris warns the group, before signaling for Fredrick to get ready. The lion nods, before bearing its fangs and claws and steps out, ready for a scrap.

With that, players are forced to face '''Wolf Pack''', and with it learn Fredrick's abilities. Fredrick is a dangerous fighter, wielding claws and dealing Slash damage, and boasting a lot of attack power, and prioritizing on lessening enemies' abilities with his debuffs. He also bears a minor amount of Earth magic. With his combination of abilities, players should be able to weaken the wolf pack and leave them exposed for further attack. Before long, the wolves are forced to flee, and the party sheathes their weapons. Maris says that that's why they needed Fredrick! Gonal supposes the extra support is nice, and Gawnk says that it is remarkable how well behave the lion was. It even seemed to take to Demiurge's commands well! Maris wonders if that's some other Draconic power, at which Demiurge shrugs, saying he's never really had it addressed by Sophia.

With that, they press onwards. Players are prompted to reach the end of the trail, and as such they can either follow the trail, or brave the plains. Either way, they'll have to contend with enemies of varying power levels, but soon they'll make it to the other end, at which they'll begin crossing over to the oncoming kingdom...
----
The team makes it to the far end of the trail. And upon reaching there, they'd see a settlement set up with lots of tents, including a big one decorated with images of the Dragon over it. And adjacent to the patch of tents is what appears to be a patch of land that several people are in the process of digging up parts of the land where long string forms a border, clearly meant to be a construction site. The group has found their way to the new kingdom, '''Decka - In Construction'''.

Gonal says that Maris's parents are already at work constructing their new home. He supposes that's just like them. Demiurge asks Maris what his parents are like, to which he replies that they're very much geared towards achieving their goals of expanding kingdom influence. They like to make sure jobs are done, and they tend to seldom give themselves moments of reprieve. He's wished he could put in as much dedication as they have. Gonal assures he doesn't have to worry that much, much of the groundwork was laid out for him already. Either way, they're here to talk to them, so it's time to seek out their tent.

So, the team goes through. Talking with the occasional wanderer has them remark that practically everybody has to put in some work from time to time. They eventually make it to the tent with the Draconic imagery about it, and there there stand some tough looking guards. Seeing just who's approaching, they'd stop blocking the tent's entrance, and the group can step in. And inside, they'd see a table set up with what looks like the blueprints of a future castle and castletown. And behind that table are a pair, a muscular jackal woman, and a smaller ferret guy. They're both wearing robes somewhat similar to Maris's current wear, and both wearing those Draconic Horn crowns. Demiurge says that Rugar was a mink, to which Fawnk replies that there've been many animals between then and now.

Maris steps forwards and greets them, '''Hoka''' for the king, '''Berakie''' for the queen. They greet Maris as seriously as they could. Berakie says that they hadn't expected him so soon, they'd thought he'd be busy. Maris assures he has been, he's been working his way into his role. However, he's been struggling to really understand what he should do. He's had to deal with treachery among his staff, and he's currently dealing with quandaries among those that wish for better lives in the kingdom. And as such, he wished to ask them their advice. 

Hoka and Berakie furrowed their brows at this conversation. Hoka asks for more clarification. He says that he'd wish to know more about the circumstances Maris is facing. Meanwile, Berakie can't help but take notice of the Dragon. With that, Maris proceeds to explain what's happened thus far, a fade to black sparing the viewer from that. Both rulers stroke their chin curious about the words presented to them. Berakie says that these are, unfortunately, issues they themselves have had to face, though haven't ironed out. Maris asks what they mean, to which she points out that if they could fix every issue, Maris wouldn't have inherited a kingdom that still needed work. 

Truth is that the kingdom climate is in fluctuation. It's not as simple as reaching a conclusion and just staying on that, he'll have to monitor various aspects of the kingdom in order to properly match with the current issues. Maris feels uncomfortable at that, and Demiurge himself feels a little uncertain with the info. Maris asks if he can still ask for pointers, to which Berakie supposes there shouldn't be an issue. Maris says he's got a few statistics back home, and he was wondering if they may help with his directions, to which Hoka says they should be plenty useful. At this, Gonal says that the following conversation might not be of much interest to Demiurge or Fawnk, so they're free to step out for a bit, maybe keep an eye on Fredrick too.

With that, the duo nodded, and they'd step out with their lion.
----
Demiurge, Gonal, Fawnk, and Fredrick are outside, the lion laying and grumbling, bored. Fawnk and Gonal are notably at a fair distance from him while Demiurge is between them. He asks the two of them if what the king and queen said was right, that ruling is a fluctuation, not a solution? Fawnk says that she's lived here a long time, and she's definitely witnessed how their alterations in policies have changed things for better and for worse for various people. She always wondered why she had to struggle often, but she supposes that their words gave her some good insight. 

Demiurge takes a deep thought about his own situation, before sighing. Gonal asks if something's eating him, to which Demiurge says that it's nothing. He just supposes it's frustrating that there isn't a concrete way to keep everyone happy. The stallion supposes that they're sort of still working on the kingdom structure, so maybe, just maybe, they'll reach that goal eventually. Fawnk says that it can't come too soon. They wait some more, and Maris eventually steps out. He says that he gathered some information, so he thinks that they're ready to go back and work on changes. 

With that, they make their way back, taking the trail back home. It proves to be a long journey, the evening sun shining down on them as they walk. Even the lion's looking a bit tuckered. They walk and walk, when Demiurge swears that he hears something. He looks around in concern as they keep on walking. Eventually, as they walk, Demiurge would spy a jaguar on the land stalking towards their group. It began rushing the tired party, and Demiurge speaks up, getting their attention. The party turns and goes for their defensive poses, though they're a bit tough to move. Demiurge realizes they're going to be in real trouble if nothing happens.

Demiurge then rushes in to try and protect them, though still has a bit of trouble to fight it. He tries to block it and tries to shove it back, though the jaguar is quick to clamp down on his arm, Demiurge yelping in alarm. And then, having distracted the feral long enough, Fawnk was able to summon up a beam of fire to blast it away, knocking it back and causing it to flee. Demiurge groans and nurses his arm, and the party approaches him, asking if he's ok. Demiurge says that he's had worse, though it still hurts. The group looks at his arm, and take pause. His arm has a large gash in it, rainbow-tinted ichor dripping from his wound.

Maris asks what that is, to which Demiurge answers that it's Dragon blood. Fawnk asks why it's so... colorful. Demiurge replies that Sophia explained that Dragons have an abundance of magic flowing through them, to the point that it alters various parts inside the body. He says that according to his caretaker, this here is a cesspool of Pure magic, though it's not harmful to touch. Maris looks at the gunk curious, and pokes at some of the blood that dripped away from the wound, and looks at it. Gonal, however, realizes he needs to heal. So, he goes about healing, and the wound sutures up.

Demiurge sighs and flexes his arm a little. He says that they should really look into protecting this road, and Maris supposes that they should. Either way, they make their way back, and everyone's too tired to really do anything else that night, so sleep soon comes, though Maris has stored the blood he collected in a vial.

;Iuli 2nd - Iuli 4th

For this day, Demiurge and party are free to do normal stuff. Hang out with party members, do side quests, grind up, so on and so forth. Simple free time. During it, some staff can be spotted relevant to issues discovered previously. It seems like entertainers and teachers are being brought forth more and more and taxes are decreasing, though the metal work is falling behind.

On the night of the fourth, after Demiurge rests, a scene shows Maris and Gonal leading a feral stallion out into the fields. Gonal asks if he's sure he'd like to try this, and Maris says that Demiurge explained it plainly, there's some magic in his blood. If this can work out, then maybe... He draws a dagger and searches the feral stallion, looking for a vein. He then slits it open, the horse wailing though Maris calms it down. While he does, he takes a swab of the sparkling blood, and presses it deep into the wound. He then asks Gonal to heal it, to which he does so. And with that, he does so.

With that, he asks Gonal to stand before the horse and threaten it. Maris says he's still not certain, but he'll be able to stop himself. He thus rears back, before going to swing at the horse. And then, the stallion tenses up, before conjuring a ball of colorless magic n front of it. Gonal's eyes widen, and he quickly redirects his attack to hurl himself to the ground, a beam of Pure magic flying over him and outwards. Maris's jaw drops at that sight. Gonal says that this is a breakthrough. If they can cultivate this... Maris then asks how the heck they're supposed to ask Demiurge to give blood so that they may weaponize people. Gonal does admit that that's a hard sell...

Either way, they must be smart. Maybe they can convince Demiurge that they deserve to utilize his magic if they can make the kingdom look more presentable. So, solve the issues befalling the kingdom, maybe utilize the Monsters out there as a point of defense, and ask. Maris supposes that that sounds like a plan... He supposes the one issue they still have is the lack of metals. Then, with a flash of inspiration across his face, he supposes that means they should be punctual.

;Iuli 5th

On this day, the party wakes again. And there, Maris organizes the group into a room in order to talk. There, Maris says that he's been working on changes around the kingdom, and so far it's looking good. However, they don't have the resources available to collect more metals requested. At least, they can't send people to collect. In that case, Demiurge asks how they shall. Maris says that before they organized their resources to the current system, they investigated for potential mining spots. 

They spotted a volcano towards the east, and that could be a source of plenty of useful metals. It could be dangerous, but the lot of them are strong warriors. Gonal remarks that they should be diligent in this endeavor. The volcano is for the most part unexplored, so there's no telling what they'll encounter. So, he recommends that they prepare themselves. Demiurge says that if this'll help the kingdom, then he'll be happy to work with them.

Maris is thankful for his service. With that, the party starts to leave the room, though Maris stays behind with Demiurge. He admits to the Dragon that he's not sure he could've gone this far without his help. And he knows that, regardless of whether the people of the city say it or not, they think the same thing. Demiurge thanks him for his assurance, and he swears that he'll do this for their sake. All their sakes.

With that, Demiurge leaves, and Maris takes a deep breath, repeating "All their sakes" to himself. With that, he follows.

;Iuli 5th - Iuli 16th

The mission is now to go to the volcano to the east, and explore it for material. First, they have to travel the eastern trail, '''Metal Range''', which itself is a bit of a march. They have to carefully go along a very slight trail while either engaging or evading various ferals on the trail. Either way, they press on and on, before soon making it to the base of a volcano, stretching high into the air. They've arrived at the '''Volcano'''.

Gonal warns that this is where things get tough. Fawnk remarks that that walk over was already pretty tough. Maris says that he's aware, but that they shouldn't worry. They will achieve. They merely need to search for some impressive metals and transfer them to the forge back home. The party nods, and then they press forwards. Maris looks onto Demiurge, remarking to himself how the Dragon's been unquestioningly following his orders in the name of helping the kingdom... even in the face of an environment like this. He wonders if... He decides he'll deal with that experiment later.

With that, they enter the caves of the volcano, in which Gonal says that they should stay away from the core of the mountain. Stick to the caves, and search for plenty of veins to bring them home. With that, players are tasked to navigate the cavernous innards of the volcano, having to deal with various creatures inside while having to navigate. As they do, however, Fawnk notes that there are some weird marks around the general area, as if something's been digging through the caves. They keep on, and players are required to claim five different veins. 

Upon claiming either vein, players will find that the caves have strangely shifted, now blocking certain passages and making maneuvering around the area tougher. The party is, of course, weirded out by this, but they still have their mission. Claim the last vein, and make their way home. Eventually, players are able to get the last vein, Gonal grunting as he holds the bunch of gathered metals. He says that this should be enough to make a good enough buffer for the military. Maris says that they've done well, though before he can complete his sentence, more movement happens within the volcano.

Maris says that this is getting more and more out of hand, they've got to move. They begin rushing, though find that the entrance they'd gone through is covered up. Fawnk's eyes go wide, and she says that this is really bad. Gonal says that this is right, it seems like this volcano's starting to hit the dumps. He says that something inside must be causing this, and that they should investigate. It could mean trouble for land near Hosha. So, the group investigates the tunnels, and soon makes their way to the core of the volcano. And there, they see a truly shocking sight. 

Partially buried in the bubbling magma is a large creature with a beak-like snout, a large spin protruding from its back, and Earth and Fire magic emanating around it. Maris asks if this thing's causing the volcano to react weirdly. and Gonal suggests that this may be their best bet. Still, a creature like that being able to move the mountain... this thing must bear powerful magic. Fawnk says that if they leave it unchecked, it could cause all sorts of chaos in the future, especially with all that magma around it. Demiurge says that a Monster like this should be stopped, asap. Maris knows they're right. He takes up his axe, and says that they're going to return this volcano to its dormant state.

The Monster spots them, and buries itself partially in the magma. It then "swims" forwards, its large spine almost making it look like a shark as it approaches. It rears up, bellows out a roar, and players are thus forced to battle the '''Magma Spinosaurus'''. This can be a bit of a tricky fight. The boss is immune to Fire damage, and resists Earath damage. In addition to that, it can deal hefty damage with bites (including a Stab skill that has a chance of critting), conjure low level fire and earth magic, cause the terrain under one party member to be magma-like and thus damage them for multiple turns, and can inflict Smell on a party member, almost guaranteeing that they'll be unavailable for the fight for a few turns. It's a tough fight, but with enough effort from the player, it bellows out a painful wail. Its magical energy starts to fade, its arms fall limp, and it falls back, sinking into the magma it'd swum in with ease.

With it beaten, the magma starts to calm, its glow lowers, and it almost feels like the volcano itself breathes a sigh of relief. Fawnk is wide-eyed, asking if that actually happened, if they actually beat a creature like that. Demiurge assures tha they have. Fawnk cheers, and says that she's gonna drink her heart out tonight! With that, she excitedly rushes down the caves while Maris, Gonal, Fredrick, and Demiurge stay back. Demiurge asks how something like that happens even. Gonal brings up that plenty of ferals have gotten magical energy in their systems, but for something to've gotten that powerful... they'd have to absorb a lot of magics. Maris ponders why a creature that powerful remained here, to which Gonal hypothesizes maybe that the magical energies made it feel the most at home here. It gave off such a nasty aura, he personally couldn't imagine harboring something like that and going anywhere that wouldn't accommodate.

Demiurge supposes that there's not much that can be done about it. It was doing all sorts of weird things with the volcano. Maris and Gonal agree, saying that they made the right choise. With that, Demiurge and the other three go back through the tunnels. Maris and Gonal hang back. Maris brings up that creature they'd face, with all its energies and messing with the environment... Is it possible that whatever could be made from Demiurge's blood could get that bad? Gonal ponders and supposes it may be possible. But that's why they'll have to be careful. The horse they'd taken had worked the blood out of its system, thank goodness, but it still made a mess of the stable. That's why further experimentation might be needed. 

Maris supposes that's true, though he's clearly uneasy.
----
With that, players return home, and the next few days will be free days.

;Iuli 17th

This morning, the party wakes. Demiurge decides to check out Fawnk, who's apparently been enjoying many drinks since they'd beaten that Monster. She offers the Dragon a few, he's also part of the hero force. Demiurge supposes he should try, and so accepts her offer. The two drink a bit, and Demiurge remarks that he hasn't seen her like this. She says that it's rare for her to find moments of celebration, and taking down a creature like that is certainly cause for celebration. Demiurge supposes that's true, and drinks. 

The two drink some more, Fawnk saying that she didn't expect the kid king to actually pull through, but things honestly feel a bit nicer than they were before. Well, for the most part. Tutors like her and the new hires are kind of underpaid and rarely get good houses. But, if he's made a change already, then she's sure that they'll be able to pull through eventually. She just hopes that Gonal's right about them eventually able to not have to work in flux. Demiurge agrees, and continues drinking.

With that, Fawnk finally belches and sets down the drink. She says that it's a good thing it's the weekend, she can't see straight right now. Demiurge says he still has to talk with Maris and Gonal, and Fawnk refers to that as a bummer. She wishes him luck, and the Dragon thanks her, before the two part from the inn.
----
Later that day, Demiurge arrives at the castle. There, he greets his allies, Maris and Gonal. The king says that the forge was ecstatic at the material they gathered, and that they should be able to develop great tools from it! He thanks Demiurge for his work, and the Dragon says he's happy to help. Plus, he's glad Maris decided to perform this task on his own. He's really starting to grow as a king. Maris blushes and thanks him for that. Either way, he'll have to look over some more numbers and see if there's anything they'll have to attend to one mission or another. With that, Maris dismisses Demiurge, and the Dragon leaves.

Now alone, Maris asks Gonal if he thinks he's ready for... that. Gonal says that the answer is uncertain, but the longer they sit on the question, the less likely it'll be answered positively. Maris answers that he knows, but... He just can't think of a way to properly breach the subject. The stallion says it'll come to him. For now, it may be time to relax. Maris supposes he's right.
===Penultimate===
With that, players are allowed to do whatever they wish for the evening.

;Iuli 18th

Demiurge wakes again. He climbs out of his bed, and he starts to head out. And when out, he finds Maris is still working in his study room. He greets the Dragon, and tells him that there's not really anything to worry about right now. He's still trying to gather information on anything that could use information. In the meantime, he welcomes Demiurge to simply hang out with friends and talk about what's been happening. 

With that, players are encouraged to hang out with various people in town, including characters around town, or and/or party members. Players can hit the bed to skip the day.
*Gonal - Approaching the guard, the stallion greets the Dragon. He says that ruling seems to be doing fine now. The military's had to take a bit of hit from the tax cuts, but he thinks that they'll be able to manage. They just have to be weary of potential attacks in the future. Demiurge supposes that is true. He then asks if they have any enemies to worry about, to which the stallion answers that those Monsters are certainly scary. They've come up in their missions twice now, and he believes that their base is currently away from the few gangs of them. But, still, they'll struggle if there happens to be an attack...
*Fawnk - Finding the chicken, she greets Demiurge. She apologizes for her previous drinking binge, she realizes that she looked a bit less than charming during that. Demiurge assures that it's fine, it's nice seeing her celebrate. Fawnk thanks him. She says that it's sort of a rarity to be overly happy. She appreciates her business, but the kids she usually tutors only show off their prowess outside of her sight, so she gets good news in the past tense. She supposes that it's nice being there in the action. She asks Demiurge what he thinks is better: taking a safe position and knowing good things happen away from you, or taking a dangerous position and being there in the fray? Players are thus prompted to answer either question, and Fawnk thanks him for his input. Either way, she says that she still enjoys her job, so it's not like she's going anywhere anytime soon.
*Fredrick - Finding the feral lion, Demiurge finds it resting in one of the training grounds. Demiurge greets it, and the lion lets out a grumble of annoyance as it's woken up, and gets up and stretches. Demiurge asks Fredrick if it's lame that he's talking to an animal that can't quite talk back, though the lion gives an unenthusiastic stare. Demiurge supposes it's a silly question. Either way, he's heard a few Dragons that've talked to plants, and he supposes that that's fine, helps to actually talk to someone. He says that he admits it's been a little strange: he sort of sees himself in the jackal kid; inexperienced, wanting to rule, so on. It seemed like Maris saw him as more than he was, and, despite everything, he's managing to come into his own in the short time he's been here. Maybe he really is more qualified for this than he thinks he is? Fredrick grumbles and starts to rest. Demiurge supposes he's right, and thanks him for lending an ear.

With that, Demiurge goes to sleep. 

;Iuli 19th - Iuli 21st

More free time for the group, more time to do whatever.

On the night of Iuli 21st, after Demiurge sleeps, Gonal and Maris can be seen on the roof of the castle, the former looking out with a set of spyglasses. He tells Maris he's seeing some really small Monsters camping in the north, he's seeing some speedy ones east... looks like there are Monsters getting closer. Maris takes in a deep breath, and exhales. He asks how the guards' weapons are looking with that new metal they got. Gonal says that smelting is still in process, and that it may be a while before they're able to outfit a significant portion of the guard. Maris grimaces and kicks at the ground beneath him.

Gonal asks if he's going to go through with... that. Maris says at this rate, he's not sure if he has any other choice. 

;Iuli 22nd

This day, Demiurge wakes again. He climbs up on his feet, though when he is, he finds Maris stepping into his room. He greets the Dragon, and Demiurge greets back. He asks what he's doing in his room, to which he explains that he has concerns over something, and he wanted to personally talk to him about. The Dragon is weirded out, though wants to listen to him. Maris says that he and Maris have gone on lookout for the past couple of days, and during it, they've been noticing sightings of Monsters around the area. Quite a few.

Demiurge says that that sounds bad. He starts to get up and says that they should probably suit up, and Maris says that that's what he wanted to talk about. He asks if he remembers that day that feral chewed his arm open. Demiurge grimaces and rubs at his arm, saying that he does. Maris says that after his explanation of the magic running through his blood, he grew curious. He'd put it in one of their ferals' system, and they were suddenly able to conjure Pure magic. Demiurge's eyes widen as he explains, him remarking that he feels really disturbed about that.

Maris understands that it's disturbing, but this is a really powerful tool on their hand. Those Monsters are powerful, Demiurge must remember how hard it took for them to take down one, and there's more than one located within several dozen miles. If they do nothing, it's possible that normal people could wind up in the cross fire. Even his parents might struggle. He swears that he's been seeking other options, but the metal they've collected is still in the smelting process, and the low taxes are already limiting the movement of their guards. 

Demiurge understands that this is a tough situation, but he's still asking him to give up '''his blood'''. How much does he even need?! Maris looks even more sheepish, though he swears that he'll be well tended to make sure the process is as painless as possible, and to make sure that Demiurge is far from dying ever. Demiurge says that it's still weird, though Maris says that the two of them should know that rulers will have to sacrifice plenty in the path of others' happiness. After all, his death is the reason why intelligent life exists today.

Demiurge furrows his brow and takes in a deep breath. He says he'll consider, and on that note, Maris says that he knows he doesn't deserve to ask another favor, but he asks that Demiurge not spread the news about their conversation, not about the Monsters nor about the blood draw. There's a pregnant pause, and Maris wearily steps out, leaving Demiurge on his own.
----
For the remaining day, Demiurge decides to chat with Fawnk again. The two are hanging at the inn they drank at before, and there the chicken notes that he's looking a bit down. She asks if he wanted to get some of the drinks here, though he waves off the offer. He says that he's just kind of dealing with something right now. Fawnk says everyone has one of those big plates to contend with every now and again, and says she's happy to lend an ear. 

He says that he's basically been asked to deal with a big problem, but doing so will mean a lot of pain for himself. Fawnk asks how much pain, to which he explains he doesn't know, but it feels like it'll be a lot, and that it'll be really invasive. Fawnk takes pause at that, taking a moment to shudder. She admits that what little he can say does sound uncomfortable, to which he says that if he doesn't, then people could get hurt. So, he asks what he should do. At that, Fawnk takes a drink herself, before setting the drink down. 

She says that she understands how tough it must feel to have to make a choice as important and hard as he seems to be making it out to be. It feels like you should put aside your safety for goodness, right? She can think of a few cases where she's had to sacrifice like that, and it has hurt. She's seen great things come from her sacrifice, and there are times where she would not regret her choices. At the same time, he should be able to recognize that his safety is as important as anyone else's. After all, if he gets too hurt, how can he hope to help anyone?

Demiurge takes the advice, and thanks her. He tells her that he'll have to think on it for a while. With that, he rests at his room.

;Iuli 23rd

On this day, Maris has rounded up the party. He says that his guards have been looking over the local wildlife, and have accounted for what they think to be each of the problem areas. There are Monsters in the area. A few are between this city and the next, and few are in the forestland nearby. He says that the guards say they're dangerously close to town, and if they aren't disposed of in a quick fashion, it could spell disaster for the people of Hosha, maybe even of the next kingdom.

The party there is uncomfortable. Dealing with a multitude of Monsters? Can they really do that? Gonal says that at this rate, it's not a matter of can or cannot. It's a matter of live or die. They would not have this duty thrust on them if they didn't feel it necessary, but it is, and they apologize. Either way, they have their mission. 

The party starts to exit, though Maris and Demiurge are the last to leave. He tells the Dragon that the offer still stands. If he ever wishes to aid, then he needs visit the king room.

;Iuli 23rd - Iuli 30th

With this, the mission is decided. Players are tasked with getting rid of the Monsters located nearby. There's also an optional objective to visit the king room, however therein lies a split. Either players can try their hardest to take care of the Monsters with their base skills, or they can make the mission easier and visit the room. 
====Visit King Room====
Demiurge decides that he needs to go through with Maris's offer. So, he enters his bed room and, after the jackal makes sure Demiurge wishes to go through with this, the king thanks him for his sacrifice. The day is thusly spent, and Demiurge is escorted into a room in the castle, Maris and Gonal joining him. They walk and walk, before stepping through a door. And in there, Demiurge looks upon a strangely clean room with a table with a bag on it on one side, and a chair set at the back wall, said chair having shackles for the arms and legs. 

Maris says he apologizes for the chair, but he's not sure if Demiurge will sit still for the duration. Demiurge says he's committed, so... He thus sits in the chair, and Gonal carefully locks the shackles in place. Demiurge gives a few tugs, and sure enough, they stay. Maris apologizes again, but he wouldn't do this if he didn't think it necessary. He goes to the table with the bag, and unfurls it, revealing a large collection of knives of varying sizes, of varying lengths, varying amounts of teeth, as well as flasks with rags and swabs. Gonal is on stand by, looking uncomfortable. Maris draws a knife, and approaches the Dragon, looking very uncomfortable. 

The camera fades to black as pained wails from the Dragon come out.

;One Day Later

A day's passed, and now Demiurge begins to wake. He groans and climbs, finding he's now in his bed. He briefly wonders if he's had some sort of nightmare. He holds his wrists in front of him and looks down on them, spying scars, and notices more lining his abdomen and legs. Physically he's well, but he still struggles to get on his feet. He takes careful steps as if the floor beneath him is wobbling.

Outside, he finds Maris. He seems uncomfortable, though he says that they've got plenty resources for taking on the Monster problem. It'll be a day before they get results, but, once this is over, Demiurge will be regarded handsomely for his efforts here. Demiurge seems to want to say something, though can't quite bring himself to really talk. He struggles to even really look at the jackal, the latter of which looking hurt though certainly understands. He apologizes to Demiurge again, before rushing off.

With that, players have the day to either do the mission or do whatever else is available.

;One Day Later

This morning, Demiurge wakes. And there, Gonal finds him, and tells the Dragon that they're seeing results from the experiments. There's actually one that should prove most remarkable. He leads Demiurge through the halls, and to Fredrick's sleeping quarters. And there, he finds, standing unusually upright and at alert, the lion. However, said lion is quite different. His mane flows behind him like wisps of flame, he can see multi-colored blood flowing through the creature's veins, the feral's eyes are wide, and even being near it brandishes a warm aura. 

Gonal says that Fredrick responded quite remarkably. The blood's remained in his system for a long time, and he's far more powerful than before. He's even able to brandish Pure magic like Demiurge is. He's sure to be a great ally in the Monster fight. Demiurge, however, is speechless. He looks over the feral with a cornucopia of mixed feelings, and eventually finds himself only able to walk out of the room, Gonal looking on in concern. With that, Fredrick is now replaced with '''Purified Fredrick'''.

Following that, and brief scenes of other ferals brandishing similar magical auras, there aren't further events, and players are prompted to take care of the Monster situation.

;Mission

Either way, there's a mission to deal with. Normally players have five problem areas to tend to. However, following Demiurge's sacrifice, there instead stands three. Exiting the castle, the party can hear blasts of magic far off in the plains around Hosha, and can even see some smoke trails in the sky. Maris comments quietly that the purified ferals are working! Gonal says that plenty of Monsters are having to contend with their newly discovered weapons, so they should be able to sweep up the remainders. He says that they should get moving to the sounds of conflict.

With that, players are tasked with going to the Metal Range, the Land Beyond, and around the plains directly outside Hosha. There are specific locations for Monster fights, and going there will lead to boss fights with one of several groups.
*In the Metal Range, players can spy a few feral horses with guards sitting on them, said horses firing beams of Pure magic at several enemies trying to approach. These include a Dirt Ankylosaurus (a creature with bumpy plating across its hide and a tail akin to a mace), and a duo of Stegosauruses (big creatures with rows of spines across its back). There are felled stegosauruses behind them, though these are still standing. The party is prompted to take them on. The Ankylosaurus boasts defense boosting buffs, as well as earth magic and smashing attacks. The two stegosauruses are normally tanky and wielding low attack power, though they lean towards multi-target Smash attacks. Players are recommended to tend to the Stegosauruses first to make sure they don't wear down the party's HP too fast.
*In the Land Beyond, players will find a few feral horses with guards sitting on them, said horses firing beams of Pure magic at several enemies. Said enemies appear to be a Storm Pterodactyl and a Lightning Archaeopteryx. The duo has a few mirror creatures (sans magical aura) behind them, clearly mowed down by the beam strikes. The winged creatures are struggling against the flurry of blasts, thought he party has to come in to take care of them. The two stand dangerous, either wielding Agility buffing and debuffing magic, and one wielding Wind magic and the other wielding Lightning magic. Additionally, the two have ailment magic for confusion and stun respectively. The latter is especially worrying because stunned targets take more damage from physical attacks. It's a race to the finish, and players need to take care of them fast and are encouraged to take care of ailments before they become a problem.
*In the plains outside Hosha, players will find a few feral horses with guards sitting on them, said horses firing beams of Pure magic at several enemies. There, they find a pack of raptors, either bearing an element (Fire, Water, Dark, Light). Several other raptors are seen felled by the horses' magic. They're dealing with the horse's Pure attack, and the party comes in, ready to deal with them. They're regarded as speedy attackers, intent on assailing the party with dangerous slashes and powerful, single-target magic. They fortunately lack buffs/debuffs/ailments, so they can't defend against debuffs. Players should wear down their attack/magic/defenses in order to weaken their attack ability, and make them more vulnerable to attack.

After enough work, players will have cleared the Monsters. Fawnk pants and pants, saying that she can't believe they actually managed all of that. Several Monsters down... Gonal supposes it wouldn't have been possible without the recent weapon development. Fawnk remarks that she was curious about that... She asks if they're... there in the head and everything. She's never seen Fredrick this... unusual before. And even the horses seem to be taken aback. She asks them what they did to the creatures. Maris answers that they've uncovered a powerful well of magic and were able to inject it into their creatures, and afterwards, they were able to demonstrate powerful magic. They've yet to be conclusive about what exactly it does to their mental state, that shall be tested. 

Demiurge can't help but feel a little uncomfortable, though he doesn't show it save for a grimace. He looked on Fredrick, who's still so alien in comparison to when Demiurge saw him before. Not to mention the way he moved during combat... As he contemplates, guards riding feral horses ride in and approach the group. The guards upon them tell the party that their warriors have spotted another group of Monsters! Maris asks how they could've missed it, and Gonal hypothesizes that it was probably responding to the death knell of its allies. Either way, the outside won't be safe unless they take down that Monster, ASAP!

With that, players have one boss to take care of.

The boss is in the middle of the Land Beyond, and upon rushing, players will find a hairy creature with long, sword-like claws, hair over its hide, and standing bigger than Demiurge. Horses around it are shooting beams of Pure magic at it, and it's forced to bob and weave, the large creature moving frighteningly fast. Seeing it, Maris says that this looks like the last of their recent problem. They get rid of this, they can all sit back and relax. He tells everyone to get ready, and they thus brandish their weaponry. 

They race forwards, and are thusly required to face the '''Therizinosaurus'''. The creature proves to be a physical powerhouse. Though it has a scant few Wind and Earth magics, it primarily focuses on wide Slash attacks, often using multi-target strikes. It also features the ability to buff its attack power, thus further increasing the amount of damage it does, as well as being able to buff its evasion/accuracy. But perhaps among its scariest abilities is its ability to Charge, thus allowing its next physical attack to do over twice normal damage. This coupled with an attack buff can be deadly. Players should focus on defense and/or lowering his offense. At the very least if you do the latter, you often have the creature wasting turns improving its offense. After enough work, the Monster's HP hits zero.

The next cutscene shows the creature skidding through the dirt, panting and panting. However, it climbs up and tries to charge the party. Demiurge and group bring up their weapons expectantly, only to be interrupted as Fredrick shoots forwards. He leaps up and slashes, locking with the Monster's claws and causing it to halt. The feral leaps off before racing under it and delivering harsh slashes across its abdomen, before belching out a beam of Pure magic and sending it flying back. It skidded, though would come to a halt before racing at the lion.

The party looks on stunned, Maris especially being surprised by the lion's movements. He shared a look with Gonal, the latter seeming to share a thought with the king. They continued staring as the two clawed creatures traed blows, before the lion delivered a harsh swing at one of its legs, causing it to keel over. And then, the feral would leap up, conjure up a ball of Pure energy, before hurling it down at the Monster. It could only look up before it was struck by the massive blast, getting vaporized by the blow. The energy soon faded, and the party found themselves looking upon a crater. 

Maris and Gonal rush the feral lion as he came down, petting him emphatically for that display. Demiurge and Fawnk, meanwhile, are both still stunned. Fawnk says she's never seen anything outside of Monsters move like that lion. Demiurge says that Fredrick definitely wouldn't have pulled any of that off before. Fawnk asks if he knows what they put in him, to which he replies he doesn't. However, Demiurge can't help but glance down at his scarred body. Meanwhile, the two of the castle keep on petting...
====Take on Monsters====
====Conclusion====
After clearing the Monsters, players are allowed free time to do whatever they wish until the deadline.

;Iuli 31st

On this day, the town is relaxing. The Monster threat has been eliminated, and they're enjoying the fruits of Maris and allies' labor. Meanwhile, the jackal's asked to see Demiurge in his study again. Demiurge goes through the halls and meets Maris there, and both parties can notice the generally less friendly atmosphere. There's a pause between the two, before Maris loudly exhales. He apologizes for recent behaviors, and Demiurge admits he's not sure if he'll ever be able to look at him the same way again. Maris swears that it was for the good of his people, though Demiurge doesn't seem too keen on his explanation. 

Maris takes up quill and paper, and begins to write. The questioning section will be different based on which route was taken.
*Donated Blood - Maris supposes it's kind of a dumb question, given the screaming, but the question's been eating away at him for a while. Demiurge's got those scales and is clearly built differently from most mortals. In fact, he probably stood up to more than the average person would've been able to stomach without passing out. So, he asks how badly it hurt. Demiurge describes it as worse than any pain he felt. Pain is sewn into the majority of his body, and even if the healing magic took it away, he still remembers that searing pain whenever he looks at his wounds. Maris scrunches up his face in discomfort, and starts to write.<br>He says it hurt him too. He didn't want to hurt him like that, but he felt he had no choice. Demiurge is silent, though Maris takes a deep breath and continues. He says that it worked out, hasn't it? The many ferals are performing well, and Fredrick did great. Surely that makes it worth it, right? Demiurge says that he doesn't know. Maybe they could've done it without the blood, maybe they couldn't, he's just not sure if he can really decide. Maris asks if the idea that a lot of people could get hurt or killed might change his mind, and Demiurge gives pause yet again.<br>He says that that's not to say his pain isn't valid. He hates that he had to do that to him. But his subjects and his parents... Surely Demiurge knows what it means to have to sacrifice, right? Demiurge says that he does, and points out that he's the only one who had to. The young king shrinks at that assertion, and bows his head. Demiurge takes a deep breath and apologizes for blowing up at him. He's got a lot of feelings going through his head, and right now, he has to clear up his thoughts. Maris understands.

At the end, he asks one more question: Does he hate him? At this, Demiurge has a few options to pick: "Yes", "No", "It's complicated". Either way, the answer doesn't seem totally satisfying, but either party silently agrees that this is as good an answer as any. So, Demiurge is dismissed. Maris writes on the paper, though starts to sniffle. After fighting off the feeling, he buries his head into his desk and sobs
===Finale===
Demiurge doesn't personally feel like doing anything this night, so he opts to go to sleep. 

;Augua 1st

Demiurge wakes up. And right now, it seems like there's plenty of free time, and players can look into the town for stuff to check out. On this day, they're prompted to check around town to see what the current events are, and to see how the party is doing.
*Maris - Maris can be seen at his room, writing. Seeing Demiurge, he's very nervous, but nervously greets him. He says that things are quiet right now, he's just checking out statistics. Either way, he says that he'll talk to him when there's something else to deal with.
*Gonal - Gonal is seen overlooking a few guards in the castle, arms crossed behind him. He sees the Dragon, and greets him. Demiurge asks how he's doing, to which the stallion says every day's training, even if things are quiet right now. He thanks Demiurge for his work in the recent mission. Really for his work in general. If players donated blood, Demiurge remarks that it hurt a lot, but he guesses it's good that everything worked out. Gonal nods, and says that he will be compensated properly, and they'll forever be grateful to him.
*Fawnk - Fawnk is seen speaking with a few children, giving them lessons about the past, and about the Monsters they're seeing, and about how their numbers are lessening. She sees the Dragon, and greets him, telling the group of students that this is the guy that made their world as nice as it was. Demiurge greets them, and the group shares a quick study session before the students leave. She says that she's very thankful for what the Dragon's done, and though not everyone's lauding their praises, she's sure a lot of people in this city thank him too. Demiurge thanks her, saying that that means a lot.
*Fredrick - If blood was donated, Fredrick still stands upright. Demiurge looks over the creature, inwardly remarking that it doesn't look like he's slept for days. However, as he looks over him, he does notice that the lion's formerly glowing veins appears to have dimmed a little. He asks if Fredrick's ok, and the lion lazily nods. Demiurge says he's sorry that this ended up happening to him. He wishes he could've left him an ordinary animal... He pets his mane, though the feral instinctively leaps back, hoisting his rear up while digging his claws into the ground. Demiurge sighs and walks, leaving the lion.

Players can also converse with various minor characters, many of which have offered questlines in the past. Other than that, there's not much else to do today, so players will be able to go to sleep later.

;Augua 2nd - Augua 5th

And then, there's more free time. With this, players are able to work on whatever they wish, be it social links, side quests, or grinding. And at nights.
*If players donated blood, at nights, Maris and Gonal can be seen observing the ferals given the blood. The two seem concerned.<br>On the night of the fifth, Gonal talks to Maris. He tells him that he had this fear and thought to monitor the ferals affected by the blood. He says that their bpm has been gradually lowering. Maris asks what that means, and the stallion explains that it seems like, as the blood is leaving their system, their bodies are unable to support their lesser forms. He says that there's a gradual rate, and that he worries bpm will be at lethal levels in over a month. Maris asks if normal blood would suffice, though Gonal says that if it did, they wouldn't be in this situation. Maris's head lowers in shame.

;Augua 6th

This morning, the party wakes once more. Each member's stepping out, and trying to take in the morning air. However, something interrupts Maris as they try and rest.
*If blood has been donated, a messenger from Decka rides in on a feral horse. They rush the castle, Gonal coming in curious. He finds the panicked Decka guard, him saying that watchers from his city have detected a terrible creature! A Monster the size of a mountain and with teeth akin to blades has risen from the valley northwards and is moving! Gonal is alarmed by the news, and says he shall warn every able-bodied man.

Either way, the party realizes their situation. The Lord of the Lands has risen from the depths, and onlookers report that it's heading in the direction of both Decka and Hosha. Demiurge seems visibly tense as they describe the situation. Maris turns to the Dragon, and remarks that he'd challenged the beast once upon a time. Maybe not this particular beast, but a beast of similar build and power. He asks if he has insight into it. Demiurge says that he and his friends fought as hard as they could, but they were forced to retreat, while he himself was slain by the Monster. Still, it's been a while... and he thinks that if that Monster is anything like they were before, then this team has a good chance against it.

Fawnk asks how he can be so sure. They've stricken down a few Monsters, but they've still struggled each time. Demiurge assures that that's why. Despite how scary the Monsters thus far have been, they've always fought to the end. They've withstood the Monsters' onslaught, and they've won out each time. That's why they will be the ones to finish this, and end the Lord of the Lands. Maris still seems concerned, though seems to perk up at Demiurge's optimism. Gonal says that Demiurge may be right about them having a chance.

He says it'll be a short while until it gets close enough to be dangerous. In the meantime, they each need to make sure they're prepared to fell that creature. With that, he says everyone needs to prepare. This fight could mean the world for everyone right now. It's time to do or die.

;Augua 6th - Augua 12th

With this, players are allowed one last bit of free time. Side quests, forge bonds, gear up, grind up, otherwise prepare for the final battle of the era.

*If players donated blood
;Augua 13th

On this day, it's reported that the Monster is making its way to Decka. By now, Gonal has rounded up the party. He tells them that the hour of trial is upon them. The Lord of the Lands is nearing citizens, and if they don't move now, it's over for a lot of innocents. Maris sighs and takes up his axe. He says that it's time to do it, and it's time to save their world from terrible Monsters.

And with that, parties are thusly ushered out, and quickly travel to the Land Beyond. On their way there, they'd find the many ferals of the land had disappeared, scampered off to corners unknown. They race more and more, and soon make it north of Decka. And as they stand there, they'd spy the hulking silhouette in the distance. Gonal tells everyone to be ready. Fawnk says that this is for everyone that fears these creatures. And Maris says that everyone's counting on them, and now it's time to prove their their worth!

The giant creature lumbers forwards, and sure enough, it's the spitting image of what Demiurge had seen before. A ginormous creature with large, muscly limbs and a set of teeth that's sure to tear most men apart. This is the same species that'd killed him one era prior, only now Demiurge feels prepared to face it. Players can say "Let's end this!" or "For everyone!" With that, everyone draws their weapons, and the Monster rears in close.

It belows out a mighty roar, and players are forced into battle against the '''Lord of the Land'''. The creature indeed earns its title, as it stands as one of the most dangerous Monsters. It bears powerful strength and magic, as well as multi-target physical and magic strikes, and even the Charge and Earth skills. Players will have to utilize great strategy. Lower the Monster's attack, buff up, and keep everyone prepared for anything it can throw. They fight and fight, and eventually, players will be able to drain the Monster's HP. 

After taking care of its health, a cutscene plays showing the creature stumbling. It struggles to stand on one leg, and pants. The many characters are striking. Demiurge rams into it shoulder-first, Fredrick blasts a beam of Pure magic at it, Maris hurls a powerful wave of fire at its hide, Gonal delivers a harsh swing up through it, and Fawnk delivers multiple blasts of elemental magic at it. Their combined efforts nail the creature, and it lashes with powerful stomps and tail swipes. The party members take some dangerous swipes, though they deal more and more damage.

And as they fight, Maris occasionally glances towards Fredrick. The lion's looking paler than before, and he can see the color in its veins has gotten exceptionally lower. He then looks towards Demiurge, who's evading the creature's slowly weakening strikes. Maris conjures another fireball and aims towards the Monster... before having it suddenly veer towards Demiurge's black, causing him to stumble. Demiurge is shocked and given only a moment to glance back at who hit him, the latter having stunned him just in time for the Monster to land a deadly blow, and just in time to see remorse in his killer's face.

The monster slams one of its giant feet down on the Dragon, and he can feel his wings, one arm, and one leg bend in weird directions as the sound of cracking fills his head. He can hear the horrific creature snarl, and feel it lift its legs. It then mashes down again, faster than the rest of the party can react. It smashes over and over, physical and magical strikes landing though it resists them. And with each stamp, Demiurge can feel more and more of his body crush and split apart. It feels like every cell of his body is lit up with pain, until it becomes too much for him to bear...
----
If players have donated blood, they'll go onto the [[#Weapons Era|Weapons Era]].
==Weapons Era==
===Early===
Demiurge rests. He shudders and wriggles, trying to move. However, he can't move a single part of his splattered body. He can feel himself get moved around, though only barely. He eventually felt like his body was getting bound, and would feel himself get cut. The cuts came with relative frequency, though after a while, they stopped. Instead, there were slower cuts, and humming. Eventually, though, he could feel himself able to move. He groaned and began to blink his eyes. He found he himself had grown a little, standing two feet taller than before and with a wider shoulder span and gate, his horns having grown a few inches while his tail and wings are bigger and thicker. However, despite that, that wasn't the strangest thing about his current circumstances. 

He was inside the chamber of some marble-like castle, with a front door and a set of stairs leading up to a large door, and lots of dirt and dust around the area. Demiurge, meanwhile, was suspended in the air, his arms and legs held against the ceiling by the hands of bat statues. The statues were built into the ceiling, and almost seemed constructed as if they were cradling the Dragon like a babe. He began to twist his body a little, confused. As he struggles, unknown to him, five bandits walked in through the front door, a couple holding torches.

Demiurge's struggles manages to snap his arm free and send a statue hand down, clattering to the floor. The bandits paused and looked up, spying the Dragon wriggling against the statue that bound him. He wriggled more and more, and was able to free his legs. Then, with another tug, he freed his last arm and fell to the ground, though he'd extend his wings to slow his descent, though he still slams on the ground and causes it to crack. He groans and stands up and rubs at his wrists and ankles while also spying the scars around his trunk. However, his attention is captured by the bandits, who're looking on in surprise.

They carefully raise their weapons, and the Dragon steps back. One of them asks if that really is him, though the other says that it isn't possible. This has to be one of those freakish experiments. Demiurge asks what he means, though they each hold their weapons threateningly. One of them says that they knew one of those monsters were skulking around here, and berates them for not listening to him! The rest, however, tell him to shut up and take care of this freak of nature! Demiurge realizes he can't talk them down, so he raises his fists in preparation. However, from seemingly nowhere, balls of darkness swing down and strike their torches, casting the room in darkness. 

The Dragon and bandits are equally alarmed, now sweeping around for the source of the attack. However, a feminine voice fills the room, asking who is bold enough to raise arms against the beloved Dragon. One of the bandits demands they show themselves and each swing around, unknowingly wandering away from each other. Demiurge, meanwhile, can see a winged figure sweep across the ceiling before clinging to it, hovering over one. Then, they leap down, and Demiruge can make out a flowing dress. They touch down just behind one of the bandits, before swinging up a scythe and wrapping the blade in front of the bandit's neck, them now aware of the flash of metal in front of them. And at this, the figure explains that they are "a freak".

Then, with a quick movement, the bandit is only able to choke out a scream and falls down. The other bandits turn and realize the shadowy figure is attacking. They then rush her, and she flips up her scythe. She swings, clashes of metal whipping up sparks and showing more detail of the attacker. Demiurge can spy that she appears to be an exceptionally tall bat with white skin, leathery wings, and a maw with more teeth than someone like her should normally have. Demiurge might actually compare that maw against a draconian one. 

She continues clashing with the bandits' blades, and would soon be able to hook them with her scythe before tossing them away, and impaling them on the blade. She'd be quick to flash the weapon out of their body and into another, It seems like the moment she's able to strike their bodies she kills them, each bandit flopping. With swift swings and shrugging off nasty cuts to her, she's able to fell each bandit. And with each down, she's quick to descend on their bodies, and Demiurge can hear slurping noises from his savior. 

He seems unable to decide whether he should run or whether he should approach her, and so just stands there in confusion. Eventually, she rears her head back, and he can notice her tongue, having extending a couple feet past her lips, retreating back in her maw. She then stands and turns to him, and now that the fight's over, Demiurge can take in the sight of her dress. She wears a ball gown that stretches down to her ankles, he can see her clawed feet beneath the dress, and she wears black with white highlights. He can also notice a gap on the sides of her dress that allows the wings attached to her arms to stretch out.

She then walks towards Demiurge, and the Dragon takes a few steps back in concern as she approaches. She then stretches out her scythe, before releasing it and letting it clatter to the ground. She walks closer to the Dragon, before hiking up her dress and kneeling before him. He looks on with a cocked brow, and the bat tells him how grateful she is that he may visit them, before addressing him as "father".
----
Demiurge had to sit down after the short amount of things he'd just witnessed. In the meantime, though, the bat took his hand and would lead him into the establishment, bringing him up the big stairs and past the door and now down a hall with various paintings about, them brandishing the Dragon's body portrayed alongside several individuals fawning over him. As they walk, the bat says that she apologizes the others couldn't be here, but she herself made sure to keep close and tend to his body. And now, she can only hope that she earns his favor, again addressing him as "father".

Demiurge says that he doesn't know who she is, he can't possibly be her father. She says that her and her kind were descended from him. Demiurge asks what her kind is, and what he has to do with them. She says that 500 years ago, Demiurge was felled in the battle with the Lord of the Land, though he and allies were able to damage it enough so that they could finish it off. Maris was able to scrape up the remains of the Dragon and the blood, and was able to restore those already tempered with blood. On top of that, there was leftovers, so they stored them.

A later king heard of the blood's effects on ferals, and grew curious about the effects on sapient creatures. So, they gathered a few families and would transfer the blood into them. Those that had been injected would face some of the same issues of the ferals before, but when they bred they produced offspring that had the blood naturally in their system. However, even in offspring the blood seemed to run out later into their life cycle. It was found that they could supplement the lowering supply of blood by feeding them ferals. Some creatures would go after other sapient beings and draining them of blood.

Their family had discovered the Dragon's body reforming, and thusly decided to take him into their house. They'd lash at him while he rested, and drank from him, and that fed them better than any worthless creature. The others wanted to keep him a drain him, even if it meant he'd just be living on the ceiling as a comatose creature. But she... she saw him for a living being. He had blood she wanted, sure, but he would certainly hate to remain up there, correct? She turns and asks if he'd prefer to walk around here rather than be hung in the chamber, and the Dragon says that of course he does. Then, before he can ask any follow ups, she says she had to fight off family members, and they were forced to flee. And since the building was left derelict, bandits would occasionally invade and she'd fight them off and feed off of them while he recovered. And now, here he is.

She turns, and says she is so happy he can be with them. Demiurge is stunned by the news. He looks at his vein, saying with worry that there are more creatures with his blood... He asks if others are hungry for this blood, to which she replies if they're alive, they're probably feeding too. It is unfortunate, but she now has the father to herself. Demiurge says he's not really comfortable being called that, and says he'd prefer names. His name's Demiurge. The bat lady answers that her name is '''Valvia'''. But he's free to call her whatever he wishes. Demiurge shudders at that, though they keep walking through the halls.
----
Eventually, she leads him up more halls, before soon arriving at a pair of doors embroidered with gold colored vines and the Dragon's image about. Vivalia opens up the door, and reveals them to be for a master bedroom. Unlike a lot of the house, this room is dusted cleaned and nicely organized. It features various dark wardrobes and desks, and in the middle of the room was a large, circular bed with a dark cover and a dark purple veil hanging from the ceiling and covering it. Vivalia answers that this used to be the parents' room, though since they've passed, she's been tending to it in hopes that Demiurge may use it.

Demiurge is liking the room he's seeing as he walks in and looks around. However, looking up, he can see a mosaic on the ceiling resembling the statues that'd held him, except it seemed to portray the bats as angels that'd tended to Demiurge in the blue sky. Demiurge asks if there's another room, to which Vivalia explains that any room lesser would sooner be torched than disgrace his presence. Demiurge inwardly remarks that he supposes she's already prepared it for him. He thanks her for the room, and says he's already feeling sleepy. She motions him towards the bed, and so he spread the veil and settles into it.

He spies Vivalia's silhouette through the veil, and says that he can't really sleep with her staring at him. However, she assures that she seeks only his safety. Bandits had threatened him before, so she'll get rid of any more that threaten him. Demiurge is starting to realize he can't argue with her, and so tries to sleep, confused about what all was happening.

;Augua 14th

Demiurge wakes up yet again, finding himself looking up at that weird mosaic yet again. He climbed out of bed, and then saw Vivalia looking over him through the veil. He slides it open and steps out, the bat curtseying to greet him this morning. Demiurge stretches his limbs a little and begins stepping out. He says that it was a fine bed, but he needs to check out the world at large. Vivalia's expression tenses up at that, and she asks him why he wishes that.

Demiurge says that he's supposed to be leading the world, that he can't just leave them like this. But the bat says that the rest of the world is undeserving of him. It stole him away, and she alone has been tending to him these last few years. He can't leave her! Demiurge says that he just can't abandon them, and begins storming past her and down the halls. She says that he's been her only salvation these few times. If he leaves her, she'll have to feed on vermin or mortals. And she'll have to feed more frequently!

That gives Demiurge pause. She thinks back to what she did to those bandits, and realizes that she'll do that to more. He says that if she's that concerned, she can come with him. Vivalia's eyes widened and she looked up at him expectantly, asking if he truly wishes to have her. He says that she can come with, they can find private areas for her to draw his blood from, and he can see whatever is going on with the modern world. Vivalia seems to perk up and then hugs the Dragon, again addressing him as "father" as she says she'd love to join him. Demiurge thanks her, and says it's time to go.

And so, they begin heading out to the front door, where they open up the door, looking out at the shining light outside. And then, they step out, and Demiurge can find himself looking over a field, and a few miles away from a new kingdom.
----
The duo begins walking through the '''Decka Fields''', having to march from the ornate house and out in the direction of the larger settlement. They walk and walk, when the sound of some feral gets their attention. They turn, and see an oncoming group of feral buffalos. Demiurge is surprised at the appearance of the group, and Vivalia brandishes her scythe. She swears that she shall tear down those that threaten "father". Demiurge stutters and says that he can fight for himself as well, and so he takes up a fighting stance himself. 

The group approaches, and Demiurge and Vivalia are forced to fight the '''Buffalo Group'''. The group are very strength oriented, though not much else. Vivalia, meanwhile, is able to brandish her strengths. She has the strange Passive that allows her to expand HP for damage-dealing Skills, the trade off dealing more damage than the SP variant. She wields Dark Magic, Pure Magic, powerful Slash skills, and the Pure Skill "Drain" in order to steal HP from a target. With he immense power, they are able to defeat the group.

The buffalo run off after the fight, and Vivalia coos satisfactorily as she sheathes her scythe. She says that fighting alongside "father" is truly exhilarating. Demiurge again assures her that she can call her by name. Anyways, they've still got that kingdom to investigate, and so he presses on, the bat following.
----
The two eventually make it to the gateway of the kingdom, Demiurge looking down the streets in deep contemplation. He'd turn to the bat and ask her what she knows about this place. Vivalia explains that she's been cooped up in that house for a long while, she hasn't exactly kept up to date with this realm. Demiurge takes a deep breath, and then steps forwards, crossing the gate. And there, they enter '''Decka'''.

The kingdom is bigger than Hosha, and with bigger buildings. It features a thick stone wall surrounding the settlement with guards patrolling it, them wielding large bows. The guards are wearing far more armor than before, some armor even bearing interesting colors, and a few helms seem to have flairs on them akin to draconic horns. He can also spy a few guards on ground, some more muscular guards wielding a large shield and equally large weapons (big sword, big axe/hammer, big spear, etc), while some lithe ones wield lighter equipment. 

The buildings, meanwhile, are now taller and made of stones, and some have signs strapped to them to brandish what services they might brandish. The streets, rather than being a worn path of dirt, are paved in smooth stone, which seems to support the new addition of carriages. The various people on the streets spy the two and look on curious, much attention drawn to the Dragon especially. And noticing the attention, Vivalia can't help but feel a little worried for him. She glances suspiciously at each member of the crowd, and her aura seems to push a few onlookers back. 

They press forwards, and as they go through the street, Vivalia asks the Dragon what his plan is. Demiurge says that they're looking for information on the modern world, and they're going to see to it that they go about guiding yet again. Vivalia remarks that it is quite admirable, him wishing to aid the world so soon after waking. But isn't he pushing himself too soon after rousing up? Demiurge, deep down, wanted to get out of that creepy house, but there's no way he'll tell her that. He says that he's been asleep 500 years already, he's got to get involved.

They walk deeper into town, where Demiurge can spy a castle that looks twice as big as the one back in Hosha, and instead of being cube-like, it seems to bear branching towers and spires and a circular base. Said castle also has various walkways positioned about with several guards maneuvering around it, the majority of them wielding powerful-looking bows. Demiurge and Vivalia share a curious glance, before the former takes a few steps forwards. As he walks, a section of guards can be seen propping up their bows and demanding he halt. Sensing hostility, Vivalia would begin to reach for her scythe, though the Dragon would motion for her to steady her hand. 

The Dragon says that he's merely here to get to know the modern climate. He's been kind of... dead for a while, and he wishes to know what's been going on so that he may lend a hand. The guards look over him, noting the horns, scales, and wings... They then realize just who this is, and they each put down their bows. They apologize and say that an escort will be down shortly. He thanks them, and thusly guards head in. With that, the two wait, the Dragon watching the bat weary. He asks if she's hungry, though she says she's fed shortly before he woke up. Demiurge supposes that makes sense, before pausing. He asks if she's referring to his waking after 500 years, or his waking this morning? Vivalia seems like she's ready to answer, though some guards come in through the castle gate.

They say that they're here to escort them, and Demiurge thanks them. WIth that, the duo start to be led to the castle, though at this point the Dragon can't help but be a bit worried. As they walk, he tries looking over his body for signs of damage as they're led into the '''Decka Castle'''.
----
The duo is led through the halls and deeper into the castle. Demiurge takes note of the architecture, and especially spies a few paintings. Said paintings depict various rulers, including Maris's parents. Other paintings also seem to depict various scenes of what looks like battle. Looking at them, he can see various weapons of various builds, from weapons utilizing more metals and gunpowder, to weapons that seem to utilize magical manipulation to function. It seemed to Demiurge a lot has happened since he went away. 

They're led through the halls, before soon ending up a few floors up and being led into a large dining area, it featuring ornate tables with benches set at them, though an area further back in the room has extra armored guards standing before a set of stairs, and there's a smaller yet more ornate-looking table at the top. And seated at the table is a plump lioness lady, and a plump stallion, either in fancy dresses and wearing a crown bearing similarities to the Dragon's horns. The guards lead the Dragon up, though they block off Vivalia before she can go up. She snarls and asks if they dare separate her from Father. Demiurge is quick to tell her he'll be back soon. 

He goes up, and sits at the small table, the two bowing as he approaches. The lioness says that she's very happy to see the Dragon before them, the stallion saying that this is great news! Demiurge thanks them for greeting him, and says that he hasn't gotten much of a chance to learn about what's gone on while he was out. He's since only had the bat, Vivalia, to help him out here. The king and queen say that they're very happy to explain everything to him. Though, they suppose first they'll have to get a read on where to start...

First of, they decide that they need to introduce themselves. They are King and Queen of Decka, '''King Apothose''', and '''Queen Meras'''. They are the recent leaders of the kingdom of Decka, and, truth be told, they are fearing the worst. For a long time the dream of expansion has filled every member of the race, and things seemed content to remain that way with Maris and his parents. However, as they expanded, soon they'd try expanding into each other. And when that'd happen, people felt a drive to take others' land for themselves. After all, they were the ones given the mission, anyone else is just in the way unless they give up.

What followed has been a long period of kingdoms developing. The Kingdom of Hosha had a head start on the development thanks to some mysterious magic under their control, though others would try and catch up. What followed would be several powerful weapons and the application of magical stones to weapons to create bizarre gear, while Hosha would construct people and ferals of surprising strength. However, they didn't seem to be a tightly knit operation, for some secrets ended up in the hands of other Kingdoms, and now super creatures are popping up around the area.

Decka is, fortunately, in a safe spot. They've managed to work out some form of treaty with Hosha. They provide weaponry and assistance to Hosha, and Hosha will provide them some super soldiers. At that, Demiurge mentally notes how Vivalia's house was very close to Decka. They also note that there lies a valley to their west, and a pretty high mountain towards their east, so enemy attacks would be greatly hampered in either terrain. Thus, enemies are forced to either come in from the south, and in the direction of Hosha, or from the north. However, there are still super soldiers out there, and there's no telling what weapons are being made.

At that, the Dragon seems worried. He says that this was never supposed to happen. Why're the many kingdoms against each other? They all originated from a single group! The two rulers sigh, and the queen says that it may've been ignorant to think everyone could get along all the time. Deep down, competition serves as a motivator, and everyone had the motivation to expand. Maybe they feel a strong pride from being "the one" to expand as much as possible. Maybe they feel that they've branched far enough to be considered independent and thus feel they shouldn't share achievements with others. Who knows?

Whatever the case, the people of the world all want to be the one in control of the world at large, even if it means stamping out anyone in front of them. For now, though, they suppose that they should show Hosha more good faith to make sure their relations are strong. So, they ask Demiurge if he'll be able to march south to the Kingdom. Demiurge supposes if it'll keep Decka safe he'll check them out. Still, he asks if it can wait for tomorrow, and the queen assures that that is very possible. He and the bat can hang out around town, and they can give him money for an inn. Tomorrow, they wish for him to meet at the southern gate in the morning. They also intend to provide an ally to keep him and his daughter safe. 

Demiurge stutters and swears she isn't actually his daughter. Anyways, he'll be thankful to hang out in town, and for the housing. He'll be sure to meet up tomorrow. The royals thank him and dismiss him, and so he heads down, soon meeting up with Vivalia. The bat can be seen sulking as she's waiting, before perking up as the Dragon appears. Demiurge explains the situation to her, and she says that they shall keep those nasty other kingdoms at bay if it's what Father wants. Demiurge says that he just wants everyone to be safe and happy. For now, they have the town to have fun in, and tomorrow, it'll be out on the road again.
----
With that, players are free to explore Decka. This consists of buying stuff, speaking to various npcs, and even obtaining a couple sidequests. Players can also hang out with Vivalia this day to expand her Social Link.

Either way, night will come, and Demiurge sleeps in a somewhat dirty-looking inn. It smells of booze, Vivalia is exceptionally protective, and they soon make it to the bedroom, where the Dragon sleeps.

;Augua 15th

Once again, Demiurge awakes. This time, he steps out of his room, though stops for a moment to note Vivalia watching over his bed, and then proceeds out. The duo make it to the street, and head to the meeting spot the king and queen talked about. They make it to the gate at the south, and spy a small squad of soldiers awaiting them. One particular soldier, a rat in lightweight armor, one with gleaming metal and rainbow-ish highlights as well as flairs from the helm resembling Dragon horns, and even extensions past the shoulder that look a little like Dragon wings, except significantly smaller. She has a lance with springs positioned strategically on it, approaches. She salutes the soldier, saying that their squadron is here to aid the Dragon in his march. 

Demiurge thanks her, and asks who she is. She says she is '''Alst''', Dragon Knight. Demiurge and Vivalia share a curious look, and he asks what that means. She answers that she's been trained in the art of aerial combat, and is able to take to the skies as easily as any creature with wings. Demiurge looks towards his own wings, and remarks to himself he'd never tried them out before now... Vivalia asks if they should, to which Alst recommends otherwise. If Hosha sees them approach from the skies, they might perceive it as a show of threat.

With that, the party decides to go on march, heading south out of Decka, and along the '''Decka-Hosha Trail'''.
----
Passing through this trail, Demiurge looks around and he can see some minor villages have been built up around the trail. It seems like there are relatively fewer ferals out here, especially thanks to a few guards positioned at some of these settlements. He also notices certain croppings of trees and greenery are gone in place of some homes. They keep on walking and walking. Though as they walk, some bandits can be seen looming nearby.

The party continues walking, though some bright flashes suddenly strike the squad, much of the travelers blinded though Demiurge, Vivalia, and Alst are unaffected. They look around confused, when the bandits suddenly charge in. They pose threateningly and demand the party hands the Dragon over, and no one gets hurt. Vivalia bares her fangs and asks what they could possibly want with Father. The bandits says that that doesn't matter, all that matters is that the Dragon goes with them, or they all go down. At that, Alst steps forwards while brandishing her Gravity Spear. She steps between the Dragon and the bandits, and declares that foes like them shall be ended. They are here to protect their group, and to that end, they shall destroy them.

With that, players are thrust into a fight with the '''Bandits''', a fight that helps players learn about Alst. She's a fairly balanced character that does Stab damage with her weapon. Additionally, she has ailment-restoring magic, Wind magic, and a unique ability that allows her to vanish from the battlefield before returning to it by slamming on a target for a lot of damage. She proves to be a helpful party member, and is able to defeat the bandits. With them beat, a few guards from the now recovered squad pick them up, and Alst says that they shall be put to the dungeon prompto. The guards nod, and thus they go away.

The rat turns to Demiurge, and she asks why they might wish for him. Demiurge says he doesn't know, he woke up only a couple of days ago. Vivalia then speaks up, suggesting that they might be after the Dragon's blood. Both turn to her confused. Vivalia says that there is some fancy magic inside this Dragon, and some may try and draw it out of him. Whatever the case, it seems some bad guys are interested in Father. Alst supposes that means they need to be more careful. With that, she says they should proceed. With that, they continue along the trail.
----
The group progresses, and there are occasional enemies on the trail that the trio will have to contend with. After much walking, they eventually make it south, and as they go through the area, Demiurge finds himself looking on Hosha, and it is ''very'' different. What was a fairly humble settlement with a small castle now stood with high walls and a castle more akin to Decka's. However, beyond that, he could see some soldiers in thicker armor around the location, only their armor seems to be designed similarly to the Dragon himself. They appeared thick and muscular and tall, and Demiurge felt almost like he was looking into some dream version of him as he looked on the armor.

The guards stand on guard and looked proud as they looked upon the bronze-scaled creature, before parting. Demiurge was confused, and Alst supposes they'd hoped that he'd appear. The group thus marches in, though Alst recommends the squad that joined them to stay out. Haivng too many foreign soldiers might look threatening to them. The soldiers salute and wait outside. With that, the trio steps in, and Demiurge looks out around the city. It looked kind of similar to Decka, except some of the facilities here appear more geared towards medical stuff than market. Furthermore, there appeared to be far less civilians around the general area than usual.

Demiurge asks what's up with the streets, to which Alst answers that this kingdom's delved into anatomy for a long time, and had become a capital of medical practice. They're also regarded well as one of the most religious groups as they celebrate the Dragon. There's also reports of there being several people in the kingdom's military, to the point that soldiers outnumber civilians. Some even grew tempted to join when the super soldiers started to become more public. Demiurge asks why they'd want that, to which Alst says that the Hoshian material can actually cure many ailments. Recently they announced they're experimenting into applying the material in fashions that'd allow for safe ingestion of the product.

Either way, they need to show Demiurge to the rulers, and establish a stronger bond between their kingdoms. With that, they'd press forwards, and soon made it to the fairly large castle, the guards freely leading the Dragon and duo in. As they go in, Demiurge can't help but feel uncomfortable. After all, this is the place where his blood was extracted... However, he notes to himself that the two ladies around him seem prepared to keep him safe. He took a deep breath, and headed deeper into the Hosha Castle.
----
The group is led into the castle's lobby, looking out around the interior. The architecture seems similar to Decka's, though it features paintings showing off what can best be interpreted as a Draconian spirit blessing soldiers with power. Demiurge can even notice a bat lady getting infused with power. The guards, meanwhile, tell the group that the royals shall be down to address them soon. Alst thanks them for being so inviting, and so a portion of the guards heads into the castle. 

With that, players are given a moment to talk with the other party members.
*Vivalia - She says that she can see her ancestor getting blessed. She asks "Father" if he'd known them, to which Demiurge replies that he's only ever seen the ferals injected with his blood. Vivalia asks what they were like, to which Demiurge replies that it was like looking at a different creature between the two. They definitely radiated with a different power, and they had a wholly different demeanor. Vivalia asks if they fed like her, to which Demiurge replies he hadn't even noticed that they were struggling like that. Vivalia remarks that if he had known about their issue, surely he would've blessed them with his blood. At that, Demiurge can say "Yes" or "No". To the former, the bat nods appreciatively. To the latter, she gives pause, and there's an awkward air between the two.
*Alst - The knight salutes the Dragon, and says that it's an honor to fight alongside him. Demiurge thanks her for the praise, She says he should expect it, being the shaper of history and all. She asks if those he worked with before praised him to which he replies they had. But still, it feels weird to get praised like that. He's not sure if he's quite sorting out all the issues the world's dealing with. Alst said if everyone were to be upset over what they could do better, few people would be happy. She says that the betterment of the world is a group effort, and she looks forwards to whatever he has in store.

Either way, speaking with the guard at the front of the stairs will pass the time, and eventually the royals proper will enter. From the door at the upper end of the stairs comes a trio. One's a lithe fennec fox man standing tall in a dress somewhat similar to a scientist gown. One's a muscular jaguar lady in a black and white gown. And between them is a smaller fennec fox boy in a dress similar to the elder's. The guards beside them introduce the trio, '''King Ferrox''', '''Queen Lazili''', and '''Prince Fontaine'''. Seeing the Dragon, the trio would bow/curtsey, and Demiurge would, surprised by the movement, give a bow while Vivalia curtseys and Alst salutes. The royals stand upright, and Lazili tells them all "at ease".

They all stand up, and seeing the Dragon, Ferrox says that he is quite happy to see this. Seeing the Dragon reawaken is sure to raise spirits throughout the realm. Fontaine especially is wide eyed, saying that he's never imagined seeing this sight before him. He's always heard tale of the Dragon, but never had the chance to see him. Lazili says there's not a soul alive that've seen them. Demiurge says that they were here to strengthen relations, and he wished to ask how they could. Lazili says that merely the presence of the Dragon is sure to make it harder to overpower them. Other than that, there are matters of national security on their end...

Alst asks what the issue is, to which Ferrox says that a powerful chemical agent has been passed through their lineage and refined to ensure powerful soldiers. However, as of late, they'd uncovered that some of those chemicals have gone missing, and now there's talks of empowered soldiers appearing here and there around the realm. Alst asks if they wish for them to track down the distributor of this chemical, to which the King and Queen nod. Demiurge looks towards Vivalia, and thinks back to that terrifying display she put on back in her family house. He could only imagine what more of those, and unregulated at that, would do at large. He says that he'd be glad to cull that super soldier problem.

They thank them for their readiness to perform this task. Fontaine asks if he can go with them, to which Lazili says that these three will be getting involved in dangerous fights. Alst affirms and says that he should remain in the safety of his guards. Fontaine seems downtrodden, though doesn't argue the point further. Either way, the duo says that it's getting late. They recommend the trio rest at an inn, and in the meantime, they'll gather word of the general locations of these rogue soldiers and give them to them. Alst thanks them for their hospitality, and with that, the trio would head out and to an inn. 

And there, they'd rest, letting the night pass.

;Augua 16th

The next morning, they wake up, and a messenger guard would find the trio at the inn. The messenger gave a messenger, and answers that the royals wished for this. Alst thanks them, and the messenger leaves. Demiurge asks what they should do now, to which she says that they should seek out the problem areas to try and cull these super soldiers. She'll have some guards investigate certain areas, as well as send a messenger to Decka so that they may take care of one of these locations. Vivalia says she'll be happy to take care of one of those that betray Father's blessing, and brandishes her scythe. 

Alst looks over the message, and says that the lot of them should gather what material they wish for here. In the meantime, she'll go to the guards outside and prepare movements. Demiurge thanks her, and says they'll make preparations. With that, she leaves, and now players are allowed to shop a bit. Additionally, players can fast travel to Decka in order to gather more material on them. Either way, eventually players will go to the guard group outside Decka, where Alst says that she's sent a messenger, and she's organized her men. 

She says that they're left to investigate the kingdom near the oceans to the north, '''Loyst'''. That kingdom is a fishing capital, and makes a lot of money distributing the fish. Those there are lightly guarded, though their position at the far edge of the mainland makes it so it's harder for them to get bumped into by conquestors. Though that only raises questions of why super soldiers would end up there. Either way, she says they should get there asap.

With that, players are prompted to go across the grand field to get to the kingdom of Loyst.
----
The field is very broad and features several different terrain with various enemies across it to buffet progress. It proves to be a little tricky to go from one side of the world to the other. After a bit of travel, they make it to the midsection of the world, and maybe would've seen a kingdom on their way though the party wouldn't be allowed to go in it. As they walk, Demiurge says that his muscles are aching. Alst admits that she may've misjudged their target. As they walk, Vivalia focuses on a patch of woodland, specifically on a sign before it with the image of a tent on it. Alst says that that's perfect: a place to rest at.

Alst tells Demiurge that they'll probably be out on the field on a few occasions out here, so if he feels they're tired and they're far from proper cities, she recommends seeking out one of these campsites so that they may rest. It'll cost them a day and mean that they'll have to go out in the field first thing in the morning, but it's better than dying of exhaustion. And right now, they could probably use it. With that, players head into the camping area, and rest. 

;Augua 17th

With this, players continue, and, given the previous rest, are more than able to make it to Loyst. The kingdom is another walled city on the sea-side border. Funny enough, this area seems to be developing some docking, though there don't seem to be any boats that'd make it far from shore. No, instead the boats seem geared to head out into the water and fish a bit before returning. The city itself, meanwhile, seems to feature many buildings that are stretched high with a market street, and the city appears to have a sewage system. Additionally, the stones appear evenly tiled and colored, almost giving the roads the look of a dull locker room's.

Alst says that they've made it to the kingdom of Loyst. This here is the fishing capital, owners of boat craftsmanship and wielding well-bodied soldiers to make deliveries. She says that rumor of the super soldiers are in this general area, though she can't imagine what unleashing such a terrifying enemy in this realm. Demiurge asks what they can do to track this thing down, to which Alst says that they should leave it to her. They've put in plenty of legwork already, so she feels they should rest on their laurels until she gets to the bottom of this.

Demiurge thanks her for that, and Vivalia says that it feels like she hasn't had a chance to sit down and relax in a while. She then turns to the Dragon and swears that she's not upset or anything. She's glad to give herself to Father's cause. Demiurge says that he'd hate to push her to where she's uncomfortable. Anyways, he admits that he's not sure he's gone this far in the world back in the day, he'd personally like to take in the sights. Maybe he can actually check out the oceanline. But first, they're all pretty tired.

With that, players will have to rest for the night.

;Augua 18th - Augua 22nd

With this, players are given a decent amount of free time. They're free to hang out with party members to boost bonds, and perform a bit of sidequesting or grinding outside. Plus, now that players reached the location, they can fast travel around the broader map to get to other locations to purchase stuff other than what Loyst provides. This section of time is simply a break from the story.

;Augua 23rd

On this day, the group wakes, though find Alst is missing. Demiurge is quick to move and Vivalia follows behind, though he bumps into the dragoon knight upon exiting the inn they're staying at. Alst apologizes, they went out early to follow up on a lead. Vivalia asks what they learned, to which she replies that during their time in the kingdom, she's searched for some of the seedier parts, and happened upon a guild of information brokers who'd gathered gossip. Those guys didn't use the specific term "super soldier", but it sounded like a being of immense power was intercepted on its way through the sewers and out onto the beach. 

As far as she seems to tell, the soldier they're looking for may very well still be in the network of sewer tunnels. The guards are standing around the entrance near the beach to try and keep the incident covered up, though they made sure to discretely send information to Hosha. Demiurge supposes that that means they'll be able to track this guy down, but then what? Alst says that if they find them, then they should be sure to chase them off deeper in to hopefully uncover where they may've come from.

Either way, the sewer probably has some bad guys in it, maybe even some bad ferals. Especially once they come into contact with this super soldier, they should be prepared for any sort of trouble ahead. The trio agrees, and with that, their mission is now set.

;Augua 23rd - Augua 29th

With this, players are tasked with infiltrating the sewer system. Players will find the entrance near the beach has tons of guards around it. Attempting to talk to them leads to them saying that the area is off limits, there's been a terrible incident. Demiurge assures that they're here to help with the situation. Realizing who they're talking to, the guards are surprised to see the Dragon himself before them. Realizing that they're here on business, they step away to let him through. However, coming to the entrance, the group sees a shocking scene: the area before the pipe leading under the city is charred with magical scars. Strips of sand appear turned to glass, the waves of sand scooping around the entrance like a frozen tidal wave, flurries of blood staining the glass while some chunks of the glass are shattered. It is otherworldly to the party as they look on, terrified. This is a brief glimpse of what the group could face, but ultimately, they must take care of it, now.

With that, players maneuver through the pipes beneath the kingdom. They carefully go through the ridges lining the flowing water, and as they progress, they'll encounter various feral foes that tend to inflict various ailments on the party. There are also bandits hidden inside that'll try and buffet the party with combinations of physical or magical blows. The pipes are very maze-like, making it a bit tough to find the appropriate direction. However, their maneuvering does get cut off partway through.

They make it about halfway through, and there Demiurge ponders why they've designed these pipes in such a convoluted way. Alst shrugs and they keep on walking. However, as they walk, they uncover a strange guy setting up a form of shop in the annals of the kingdom. He sees them and waves them hello. The party approaches curious, observing this guy to be a skinny stag man wearing armor that looked nice once upon a time, though are all dirty now. He greets them, saying that he's been trying to find a friendly soul around here, and he asks whether or not the three of them are bandits. Vivalia says that they've been dealing with those heathens throughout their stay down here. 

He's thankful that they seem to be reasonable people. Alst asks who he is, and what he's doing down here. He says that he's here on... private business. He asks which way they came from, he'd so wish to come out. Vivalia, however, threateningly aims her scythe towards his throat while Alst looks over his armor. She notes that this looks like '''Hertsi''' armor. That kingdom's southwest of here a fair distance, and she wishes to know what he's doing out in the labyrinth beneath Loyst. Demiurge ponders whether or not he may be involved with the "you know what". Alst considers that that may be possible. Alst asks if he's aware of the recent invasion on here.

The stag shudders, and says that he didn't realize what his squad had planned until they got here. He says that his squad came here on belie of an illegal weapon being developed here. However, when they came, he noticed a portion of the squad split off to one side of Loyst and into the sewer system. He thought it weird and followed, when they released a warrior with veins glowing a rainbow color. They began to lead it, but he'd managed to get the guards' attention and they were able to intercept the ball of madness before it could break out into the beach. In the chaos, many soldiers fled, while he himself was forced into a corner of the sewers and he'd completely lost his direction. 

Alst supposes that means that Hertsi was preparing to sabotage Loyst. Vivalia says that they shall take care of it, though Alst stops her. She asks the stag if this creature had left. However, he says he can hear its noises reverberating along the walls occasionally. Alst says it sounds like they still have a problem, and says that they should take care of it. At this, the stag says that he'd like to help. He didn't realize they were going to release something so dangerous into the city, and he feels he should help take care of it. Alst warns that it's dangerous, though the stag assures that that's fine, he's not the guy usually on the front lines. He's a cleric.

Either way, the party supposes he's safe enough to join along. And so, the party acquires a brand new party member: '''Hoisea'''. Either way, Alst says they have plenty of important information, it's time to go on deeper.
----
The group progresses, and as they do, players learn about Hoisea's gimmick. He's a mace-wielding, smash-dealing cleric that practices Light magic and bears restorative magic meant to heal and undo debuffs/ailments on party members. With the new support, the party progresses deeper in, and as they do, they frequently hear the noises inside, inhuman noises. The stag warns that that's the sound he's been hearing, and warns that they need to be careful. They go closer and closer, towards the heart of those strange noises. And once there, Hoisea warns that they're dealing with a real monster of a man up ahead, and says that they should only press on if they feel ready.

Upon deciding they're ready, the party goes into the depths of the sewer, either already reaching for their respective weapons and looking around weary. Alst asks Hoisea if he remembered anything about the weapon they sent in here, to which he replied that it was powerful, big, had jaws that could break metal... However, his thought process is interrupted as they hear the sound of clattering weaponry and pained noises. The group heads deeper, and once inside, they spy men in armor similar to Hoisea's being sent flying, some breaking their backs on the walls while others are twisted oddly. They even see one soldier get hit with a fire beam that causes them to collapse, their armor partially melted. The party spies the source of the beam, and it is terrifying. 

They look upon an alligator man a head taller than Demiurge, wearing hefty armor and with a set of claws that seem as long as daggers. His teeth seem equally enlarged, and as Hoisea described, his veins can be seen glowing with pure magic. Demiurge asks Vivalia what's going on with this thing, to which the bat explains that this thing must've been fed the blood recently. This certainly isn't one of the descendant experiments. The gator turns towards the party, and in a husky voice, asks if they're going to hurt him too. Demiurge's eyes widen, and he asks what he's talking about. The gator says that it hurts, it all hurts. They keep shocking him, they keep spurring him on... He asks if they're going to hurt him too. Alst points her spear towards him, and declares that he won't be hurt, but he will have to face the dungeon for his crimes. 

He clutches his head and stamps the ground, saying he knew they'd hurt him too. He's not going to be hurt. He's not going to submit to them! He's not going to anymore dungeon! He rears back, before sending a wave of fire at the group, forcing them to defend against it though they're blown back. Demiurge asks what it's talking about, to which Alst says she has no idea. It sounds like whatever he'd gone through, it really hurt him. Vivalia notes that his aura is radiating, flaring. She says that he's getting into a rage, and they have to get ready!

With that, players are forced into battle with the '''Dragon Experiment: Alligator'''. The creature is a hard hitting foe. It features high level Fire magic and some pretty dangerous physical blows, and even Enrages himself to perform harder attacks seemingly on random targets. Players will have to find ways to lower the amount of damage it causes, else get punished. Especially towards the lower 20% of its health, where it starts using Pure Magic, Quake, to deal a lot of un-resistable damage to multiple party members. However, with enough work, they'll be able to take him down.

The experiment falls back with a loud groan, collapsing onto his back. He grunts and shudders, saying that it all hurts. The party, meanwhile, comes near it, looking over the pained creature. Alst says that they should find a means of imprisoning this creature, pronto. In the meantime, Horsea will have to tell them plenty about this creature. Including the apparent pain it's endured. With that, the party begins to head out, though Demiurge glances at the collapsed foe, the latter is left repeating for some invisible force to stop as he can only lay there. Demiurge furrows his bros, though ultimately heads out, the guards of the city finding a means to ensnare the foe.

With that, players are allowed freetime after they defeat this enemy.

;Augua 30th

At this day, Alst and group approaches the castle set near the beach. They're near an area towards the back, a set of docks that goes over the beach while lingering near the iron dungeon door, a pair of guards before it. When there, the guards and party greet each other. The guards wish to thank them again for their service. If they hadn't shown up when they did, that gator would've caused much more damage. Demiurge says it's no trouble, and says that they actually came to ask about that. He asks them what's gone on with the prisoner. 

At that, the guards start to get uncomfortable. They glance towards each other, one of them asking him if nobody's informed them. Alst asks what he means, to which they explain. Apparently when the creature was brought to the sewers, it was losing its life already. And while it lingered in the dungeon, it was getting weaker and weaker. They'd tried to keep its health up, but that didn't seem to help it in the long run. This morning, it'd perished. The party is stunned by that, Vivalia in particular glancing towards her veins. 

Alst asks if they've really lost him, to which they reply that there's no question. The individual was pale and already cold by the time they examined his cell. Demiurge can't help but feel uncomfortable at the situation. He speaks up that he was so scared when they last saw him. Hoisea himself also seems uncomfortable with this situation, and he asks what the cause is. Demiurge decides to speak up, saying that it had to be because of the experiments on him. He had to've been injected with the... he's quick to say "solution" instead of "dragon blood", and he points out that that's not good for people unless they get more. It's as if they're starving. 

Vivalia wonders under her breath why they'd go with such an outdated model. Hoisea says that if Hertsi is doing this to people and threatening to unleash that on innocents, then this cannot stand. He hereby secedes from his kingdom, and kneels before Demiurge, swearing allegiance to him. Before Demiurge can say he doesn't need to kneel, Alst says that he can start by explaining everything he knows. If they're going to avenge that guy, they need to get to Hertsi and find out what it's doing.
===Midway===
The party's made it back to their inn, where they decide to talk. Hoisea is already on the path of talking about his kingdom. He explains that he knows very little if anything about Hertsi's experiments. At least, hardly anything official. There's rumors about people mysteriously disappearing and some say that an unidentified traveler was escorted through the castle's dungeons. He's not sure whether the two are correlated or not, but that's about as much as he knows that may be going on behind the scenes. 

Alst asks how weaponry and such is handled in Hertsi anyways, to which he replies that the kingdom is fighting hard to develop grand weaponry. They've tried desperately to mix stones bound with magic with intense gear, and have been able to make a few strange magics. He's seen a few with swords whose blades are made of magical energies. Demiurge remarks that it sounds like they're really trying to make tough weaponry. Alst answers that it does, and that none of the kingdoms have gone public with such techniques and results as of yet. She says that it sounds like the strange visitor might be behind the super soldier, and thus says that it sounds like they'll have to infiltrate to try and figure out what is happening with this conspiracy. 

Vivalia says that it sounds nice enough to visit. She'll love to give those heretics what they deserve. Demiurge, however, motions for her to quiet down. He says that they should probably update a few people first off. They should inform their allies about the super soldier and potentially about Hertsi's involvement. Alst says that they should provide updates on taking down the super soldier. However, she says that if they say anything about the kingdom itself, they'll probably rock the boat. Either way, they'll have to end up at Hertsi sometime soon. 

Hoisea asks if he may accompany them. He can't stand that they've been doing such terrible things to their own people. Demiurge says that his aid will be quite helpful, Alst says any other aid will be useful in this mission, and Vivalia says whatever Father decides is her decision too. And with that, Alst says they should be ready for movement tomorrow. Tonight, however, they should spend the time relaxing. With that, players are allowed a day of free time, before being tasked with getting to the kingdom of Hertsi.

;Augua 31st - Septmi 6th

And with this, players are tasked with reaching the kingdom of Hertsi. Hertsi is southwest of Loyst, but in addition to that, players can inform the kingdoms Decka and Hosha of the recent happenings, though they leave Hoisea out of their description. Giving this description to them nets players some weaponry and gold, and it's purely optional.
----
The group heads forwards more and more, approaching the kingdom itself. The kingdom is positioned near a mountain range, though it's been fairly heavily torn up by people from the kingdom. Said kingdom also features more metal in its architecture than those the party met beforehand. However, their path forwards gets cut off when they spy a fight going on a fair distance away from the gates. They see a jaguar with black fur evading a few bandits, said jaguar near a toppled carriage. The jaguar keeps trying to evade, and occasionally uses a large mirror mounted on his wrist to block a strike. 

The party draws their weapons, and Demiurge declares that they need to help him. With that, the party races forwards, the jaguar soon noticing them. When he sees Demiurge, he is stunned. A quick fight goes on, players needing to take care of the bandits that threatened the jaguar. Shortly after dashing them, a cutscene plays, showing the various party members dealing with the enemies. And throughout it, the jaguar is stunned. He watches Demiurge fight, the scene portraying it in a romanticized style that seems to portray Demiurge as a stunning warrior as he parries and counters foes.

Eventually, the fight wraps up, and each fighter sheathes their weapons. Demiurge turns to the jaguar and asks if he's ok. However, the jaguar kneels to the Dragon, saying he needs to join him. The party is quiet for a bit, and look among each other curious. Demiurge asks what he means, to which the jaguar apologizes, he should explain. He calls himself '''Faust''', and says that he's a big fan of the Draconian teachings. Demiurge asks what he means, to which he explains that Hertsi's been looking into observations made from the Dragon, and relating it to the world around it, and it is fascinating. He says that the people of Hertsi have concluded that it'd taken a draconian magic to form the world around them, from the lively environment to the magical stones to the creation of life. Demiurge tries and says that he hasn't done all of that, but Faust concludes that he surely knows people who have.

Demiurge can't deny, and at that Faust declares that he must tag along. Any word they've gotten of draconian magic have all been hearsay and based on the observations of Maris and allies. But this way, he can get to know the Dragons better than anyone on this world! Vivalia glowers at him and her hand hovers over her scythe. Demiurge motions for her to be at ease. Alst says that their group is going through dangerous situations, and that to go with them would be akin to facing death itself. Faust, however, says that he wishes to learn from the Dragon either way.

He shows off his mirror, proclaiming it a symbol of his performance thus far. Said mirror seems to ripple, and individual shards lift off of it before hovering back in place. He says that this mirror is able to interact with the elements and affect its wielder with that effect. It's also able to influence the elemental affiliation of those he wishes. If he practices more he can make it so much more capable, though that requires more time. For that, he wishes for them to give him the opportunity. Demiurge mulls over the choice. Alst remarks that he has some knowledge on the teachings of Hertsi, and appears capable of some enchantments. Demiurge supposes it shouldn't hurt, and agrees.

Faust thanks them, and races into the group. With that, a brand new party member joins. However, their time is interrupted as one of the bandits gets up. They proceed to attack, and Faust is forced to act. With that, the party is thrust into another fight with the bandits, Faust now aiding them. He has the strange passive that allows him to alter his elemental relations based on a certain accessory slot, and he can target party members to have them able to resist certain elements to make it harder for enemies to beat them. Soon the bandits are beaten again, and the party stands victorious.

Hoisea says that he's never seen magic like that, and that that will surely help them. Alst admits that it is impressive. Demiurge thanks them for their assistance, and Faust joins along. Now the party is a little bigger.
----
Following that, it should simply be a straight shot to Hertsi. The group makes it through the gates, and there they find themselves in a city built partially into the mountain range. The wall is wrapped in such a way that it goes over part of the range, thusly leaving part of it in the city. And there, the party can see scaffolding around the range that let people go around it to get to certain spots to mine. Other than that, there appears to be many smithies set about as well as empty fields that appear to be meant for weapon/magic testing, and there are more than a few alchemical shops. And towards the rear wall of the kingdom is a large castle with metal positioned strategically around the large structure, and boasting cannons through slots in the openings. 

When here, Alst says that they've made it here. Alst says that they should be able to more easily traverse around and make it to this kingdom. Hoisea asks what they should do, to which Alst says that they need to find some way of figuring out how the formula got from Hosha to Hertsi. She supposes that this might involve finding out about the missing people, finding out what might've gone in the dungeon, and perhaps find out how much of the court is involved. It seems like at least some members of the military aren't knowledgeable on the experiments. She says that they should try and ask around about what's gone on.

With that, players are now allowed free time, and are also able to learn about Hertsi itself. Players learn that Hertsi utilizes slave labor, relying on either persecutor criminals or people deep in debt. Those that work make sure to gather metal, and their continued labor has helped to produce unique advances out here. In addition to that, players can also find that Hertsi sells weapons that deal element damage instead of physical. 

Either way, players have a bit of time between arrival and the plot moving on.

;Septmi 7th

On this morning, the group is together in Hertsi, meeting near the gate. There, Demiurge asks if Alst's managed anything, to which she answers she's only thus far managed to get a list of names. She's tried to get some form of meeting with the royals, though they've since denied her audience. Demiurge asks Faust if he knows anything, to which he says he's kept his ear to the workbench and supply lines. He's been trying to find some good material to work with the experiment more, but he's never heard anything of the tier they're describing. 

Demiurge furrows his brow and asks how they're supposed to go forwards with this. As he ponders, some dirtied citizens approach the party. They're a skinny dalmatian teen boy, a pudgy pigeon teen girl, a red fox guy of average build, and a seal lady of similar average build. The rat gets Alst's attention, the rat turning towards her. The dragoon knight remarks that these are some of the guys she asked about the missing people from, and she them what brings them here. The seal says that she noticed her talking to a few guys about the missing peoples, and she thought to gather a few of them up to speak with the party personally. Demiurge asks what's going on, to which she says that she knows some guys that supposedly "know things". 

Vivalia asks what they mean, to which the dalmatian says that there're people around town that are considered weird. They claim to know of conspiracies in the kingdom. Apparently they noticed that the missing persons are the slaves, and they didn't totally connect the dots. However, after Alst asked around, they came to realize that there might be truth in that fear. The seal confirms that the missing people they know about have each been a slave. Hoisea asks if they know of any alligator, to which they affirm, before giving a description matching the previous boss. Sure enough, he was one of the slaves.

The seal says that he was a friend to them. He'd tried to spoil his boyfriend rotten, and ended up getting dumped and left only with debt. Then one day he disappeared, and, it sounds like the worst has come to him. She says that she'd like to see justice come to him, and if that means seeking out the oddest people to accomplish that, then she'd be fine with that. The party feels uncomfortable at the situation, but hearing that they want justice for their friend, they seem only spurred on even moreso. Demiurge says that he wants to help them, and that he'd love to interact with some of these guys.

They thusly become become acquaintances with the quad: '''Herso''' the dalmatian, '''Mron''' the pigeon, '''Hosa''' the fox, and '''Serba''' the seal. The four of them have some people they think should be able to help them learn about the conspiracies floating around the kingdom.
----
The day is thus spent going about the town and searching various alleys, led on by the citizens. 
*Herso and Mron are in one corner, where there's a big toad guy. Said toad says that he saw guards dragging miners to the dungeons. Vivalia asks that they're prisoners, are they not meant to be in the dungeon? The toad says that these miners were picked up by special guards, and whenever those guards grabbed someone, they'd never come back.
*Hosa is in another, and he shows off some balding peacock guy. Said guy says that he's kept an ear to the walls. He says he's heard screams inside there. He says if he leans in close he can hear the screams and drilling sounds. Faust grimaces at the description. The jaguar says that he can imagine a few situations where a drill would be used, though if it's involving screaming subjects...
*Serba is in another, showing off a terrier woman leaning back. Apparently she's honed in her senses, and she says that she thinks she knows the way in and out of the dungeon. She's found cracks in the walls and thinks someone can slip in, and she's seen some fancy-looking guards through those cracks. Hoisea remarks that the infrastructure could use some updating, though notes that she'd see things even he hasn't seen.

With the information gathered, Alst supposes that they've gathered the information they need. It sounds like something terrible is going on in these walls, and that they should take the time to investigate. Once they expose the instrument of their experiments, they should be able to rub the royals' noses in it and force them to answer questions necessary to finding out what's spread Hosha's solution around. Hoisea warns that this could be dangerous, there are some tough warriors within those walls. However, Alst says that this kingdom's doing terrible things, and they need to put a stop on it.

Faust says that no pursuit of knowledge is worth this mayhem. They need to get this issue sorted. Vivalia says that if it makes Father happy, she'll be more than happy to destroy those guys. Demiurge says that he looks forwards to ending this chaos. They have to act, fast.

With that, one more mission is decided: Infiltrate Hertsi's dungeons, and uncover these fabled experiments. 

;Septmi 7th - 16th

Now, players are ready to press on. The terrier they talked to leads them to a corner of the city, showing off a small hole from the dirt just under the dungeon walls. The dog says that whether the city knows it or not, the lot of them are doing a huge favor. She wishes them the best. With that, players go through the hole, and make it into the '''Hertsi Dungeon'''. There, the insides are very confined and claustrophobic, brandishing concrete walls and narrow halls. Demiurge says that it feels more cramped than anything he's seen. Alst says these are meant for containing prisoners as opposed to comfort. Then there's those rumors they keep hearing about...

They press into the dark halls, having to deal with occasional guards and guard animals. They have to go through it, and occasionally have to find keys to be able to unlock other passages into the dungeon. As they progress, however, they soon make it to the prison wing, finding many people behind bars. The prisoners look to be in various stages of dirty and disheveled. Plenty look on the guys going through the halls distastefully, while others just seem huddled in a corner and saddened. Demiurge looks over them, and as he does, Alst speaks up. She says that the dungeon is supposed to contain prisoners, why is there a wing dedicated to storing them as opposed to utilizing the dungeon itself? Faust says he's not sure. What's more, it seems like they've explored all of their current options.

Faust, however, starts sniffing the air. He remarks that he thinks he smells something. The party looks at him confused, though Vivalia sniffs herself. She says that she also smells something weird. She says that it smells like Father, though further away. Demiurge thinks on the nature of the experiment fluid, and thinks that their noses might be onto something. He says that they should go and look for it. Though as they start to leave, one of the prisoners gets their attention. It's a skunk man. He remarks that they're not any of Hertsi's guards. Alst confirms so, and asks what he's reaching out to them for. He says that guys've been disappearing out here and the halls've been filled with screams. 

He says that they must have the power to take down this castle, right? And they've got the Dragon with them. Surely they can tear this whole castle down! Alst says that they're here to investigate things, and if their findings prove true, they'll certainly bend the court's arm. The skunk, however, says that their investigation is worthless! He declares that things've gone bad even before the screams went on. The city's actively pushing for their people to go into the caves and extract metals. Normal jobs run out too fast, the passage to castle jobs is too long for any of them, and the services around them are too much for most commoners to keep up! Hard labor is practically required! Alst, however, says that she has no need to listen to a criminal's plight. With that, she tells the party they have business to wrap up, though Demiurge can't help but feel concern over that skunk's words, and Alst's non-reaction to any of it.
----
They follow Faust's lead, the alchemist smelling and smelling. Soon, they make it to a part of wall in a hall a short distance away from the prison wing. He says that he smells it through here. The group looks over it curious, pondering what the smell could mean. Alst asks what it smells like, to which Faust answers that it's chemical, magical, Pure. He's dabbled with a few chemicals, and he's grown accustomed to some of their scents. And this definitely smells like one of those scents. Hoisea says that that's probably the solution they're looking for, and says they need to find a way through this wall.

Players can investigate the portion of the wall, uncovering a tiny hole in it. Faust supposes there might be some sort of key in there. If players hadn't uncovered a Thin Key by now, players will be required to search for it through the dungeon. When/if they do have it, the party will insert it into the slot, and will promptly open it, the panel of the wall spreading open to reveal another hallway. By now the rest of the party recoils, Hoisea remarking that this place reeks of chemicals. Vivalia, however, appears to be lauding in the scent, saying that they must investigate. Alst says that, regardless of how threatening it appears, they should press on. With that, they enter the deeper parts of the dungeon.

They press onwards, and the smell gets thicker and thicker. Eventually, they make it through the halls and into a chamber, which shows various flasks with various chemicals in them, brandishing colors reminiscent of various magics. Some colors also appear mixed together to try and form some combination of the magics, including red and brown forming Magma, like the one creature Demiurge and party faced in the volcano way back. Alst asks what this is, to which Faust says it looks like they're trying to combine various elements to try and form something more potent. He looks at a fire and water combination while saying they've tried constructing steam. He looks at red and pink and says they've tried making solar. Then he looks at a goblet with a large quantity of mixed elements, to which he says this combination would be a complete failure, whoever made this clearly tried mixing together as many elements as possible without consideration of the quantity or consistency of the elements together.

Alst asks what they probably intended with a combination like this, to which Faust says it's pretty much purely hypothetical. They probably saw how the other elements combined together to create other, powerful elements, and probably assumed they could do the same with each of them. Demiurge, meanwhile, couldn't help but look down at his arm, when he was given a painful bite by some feral a long time ago. He quietly wonders if they might be trying to recreate his blood. Either way, Alst says that they're getting closer to their destination. Now's the time to investigate further.

They thus head deeper in, and will end up encountering guards that can utilize various elements formed through the alchemical lab they'd encountered. They prove to be tricky and players will have to be careful as they head in. They press on and on, and as they head in, they uncover a room full of cages with some unconscious people in others. And among the cages at the edges of the room, there are what look to be operating tables in the middle, alongside some colored solutions positioned upon cabinets. And in there stands some jackal man in a white coat who's looking over the various cages. And as they look around, Demiurge spies a vial of rainbow-ish solution in his pocket, this one being partially empty. Demiurge speaks up and says that that's what they're looking for.

Alst thusly points her gravity spear towards the foe, and demands he surrender. The jackal turns, spying the intruders. He asks what they're doing here, and Demiurge says that his kingdom's taken something important, and they're here to stop him. Hoisea speaks up and says they're also here to stop him from experiment on the kingdom's people. The jackal, however, says that they're here to continue the mission of mankind. These people here have forfeited their responsibility of decency already, and they're now being made into something more useful. Alst, however, says that regardless of the way they treat prisoners, he can't expect to get away with stealing material and sending weaponized people on other kingdoms. They've just come from Loyst, so they know this is their goal.

The scientist, however, says that he's merely doing divine work. Demiurge, however, speaks up and declares that he's divine, saying that this isn't what he wants! The scientist looks on confused, seeming to go limp in uncertainty. He says that this can't be right. To expand, to take the world, that's been the mission. Demiurge says that he never wanted them to hurt each other to get that goal! The scientist, however, tenses up and declares that this is some fraud! He declares that Decka must've brainwashed him! With that, he loudly slams one of the cages, prompting those inside to rouse awake. As they do, he says that whoever kills the intruders will be released!

With that, players are forced to take their stance, and do battle with '''Doctor Lithel'''. The boss, in addition to trying to inflict an ailment on a party member, will bring forth an ally who, while begging all the pain to stop, will fight alongside the doctor. The allies have varying different skills and stats, so players will have to be on their toes as they contend with the foes and with Lithel. Lithel himself is more of an annoyance than a threat as he leaves the damage to those he summons, though players should be mindful of their ailments. Things get worse as Lithel gets down to 20% health, where he looks over his vial, saying he can't lose, not now. Alst says that they need that solution if they're going to confront the royals! With that, it's a race against time before Lithel unleashes an insta-kill, Pure-based attack on the party. But with enough work, they should be able to defeat him. 

Doctor Lithel collapses, panting and panting. He glares at the approaching party. He then takes the vial of Pure magic and lifts it overhead, threateningly. He says that they've all done things they regretted, but this can end now. If they come too close, he'll smash this, and if they try to take him down from a range, he'll just drop it anyways! He begins making demands, only for Vivalia to whip towards him at blinding speeds and slice the hand holding the vial off, the jackal crying in pain. With it gone, the bat grabbed it, and held it triumphantly. She then sauntered towards Demiurge before looking up at the Dragon pleased.

Demiurge takes up the vial. With that, he says that the rest of them should be free to do what they wish to Lithel, and whatever they wish to do to the rest of these captured people. Alst says that they're dead anyways, the experiments doomed the other guy. As for Lithel... He'll definitely spin some tale to the royals if they let him live. She raises her weapon, though Demiurge asks won't getting rid of him also make issues. She points out that when they confront them about the solution, they'll be able to claim the high ground if problems arise from this body. With that, she raises the spear, and finishes the doctor off, the camera cutting away.
----
With this, the group exits, Demiurge admittedly not feeling great. They took the super soldiers offline seemingly, and they have the material. However, he's not sure how he feels about those guys' general attitude around what's gone on here. At the very least, they'll merely have to deal with this gunk at a later date. So, from here on out, players have free time until the deadline.

;Septmi 17th

The deadline eventually comes, and by now, the Alst approaches the party. She explains that a message has been sent to them. She'd sent a message earlier, revealing they personally held one of their precious items, and they wished to discuss about it person to person. Demiurge asks if this is a safe plan, to which she says that if they try anything, then surely the people of Decka and Hosha will be upset. Especially considering that they currently have what was taken from them. Trying to strike them down would be akin to suicide right now. Vivalia says she's excited to make some heads roll, though Demiurge says they won't be going that far.

Faust says that he wish he'd grown up in Hosha. They seem content with keeping their experiments confined, and they're probably more open about their chemicals. Demiurge momentarily thinks back to what led to his current predicament, and can't help but glance towards Vivalia. Either way, Faust says that he wonders what that kingdom could've done if they controlled this mountain. Demiurge, however, says that they shouldn't think like that. They have to keep the people of the world safe, not push for conflict among each other. However, Hoisea says that it's unfortunately not that simple. No matter how idle you are, people around you will want what you have, and will build to strike back. if it wasn't for their interference, Loyst might've fallen for Hertsi's strike.

Alst says it would be fantastic if everyone could live nice and happy, but there are people out here that will fight for what the other has. Hosha's had to get their own hands dirty to keep Decka safe, just the same of their own party. At that, Demiurge asks what the end is, if they're supposed to just keep fighting to try and either take things or to protect? There's an uncomfortable silence in the group, to which Vivalia supposes the only acceptable solution is for one nation to fulfill the goal of everyone. Demiurge can't help but feel uncomfortable, though he sits down.

Either way, Alst says it's time to head out about now. They'll go and speak with Hertsi, and they'll try and find out who's responsible for stealing and distributing the solution.
----
The party progresses to the castle, the guards spreading so that they can pass, though they cling behind them, very weary. The party progresses forwards and Demiurge can't help but glance around, feeling their glares upon them like daggers against their flesh. They progress into the castle, its inside ornately decorated with stone, as opposed to a lot of the steel on the outside. Many guards inside have thick armor, and they can even see a few in armor similar to Hoisea's. They're led and led, before soon making it to a banquet hall, with a large table and a large painting depicting the royal duo sitting at the table. 

One's a tall, lean bull in a fancy suit, and the other is a tall, lean robin lady in a sparkly dress. The guards tell the party they're in the presence of '''King Estua''' and '''Queen Meridi'''. The dragon greets the king and queen, and the two of them greet back, albeit a little coldly. The party approaches, and sits at their own end of the table, the many guards looking on and the air filled with tension. The queen supposes that they can't keep off topic for long right now. Surely the party is aware why they're here. Alst answers they're here to discuss about the material they found in their possession. With that, she placed the vial of dragon blood on the table.

The king asks how they received it, to which Alst answers honestly that they'd heard of Hosha's material being used illegally, and far from their own territory. Their investigation has led them here, where they heard that the guards had been in contact with the potential perpetrator. The king asks if they'd invaded their halls, to which Alst says they were retrieving material that shouldn't be here to begin with. The rat also points out that they offered a more diplomatic channel so they can gather this material, though they'd refused, and thus forced their hand. The king and queen look at each other, weary, before turning towards the party.

The king asks what they intend to do with this information, to which Alst explains they expect cooperation now. They return to their kingdoms, they'll confirm that Hertsi possessed this material illegally, and they'll be in trouble with several well trained super soldiers. Faust speaks up, clarifying that if they disappear, the other kingdoms will likely see this as a declaration of war. The king and queen grimace in annoyance. They briefly whisper towards each other, before facing the group. The king says that they've decided they will comply. They shall send a description of the person they got the material from. Alst also says that their lab shall be put on lockdown for now, seeing as they attempted what sounds like quite a few invasions with these super soldiers.

The king and queen try to stand in opposition, though a pair of guards beside them pull them down to their seat, clearly feeling this an ill advised course of action. They sigh. Estua supposes that they shall keep their lab out of commission. Alst nods in affirmation, and she says she looks forwards to their cooperation. With that, the party is led out.
----
They stand outside of the inn, Hoisea letting out a deep breath he didn't realize he was holding. He said that he was sure that was going to go worse! He actually managed to get through without them addressing him! Vivalia says that the nasty villains have been beaten and they'll be properly punished for their crimes in Father's glorious land. Demiurge can't help but wonder why they struggled to a diplomatic channel. It seems like in the end, they only made things harder for themselves. Alst supposes that's just the way things are for those with power, isn't it?

They fought so hard to keep such a terrible power all to themselves, they didn't consider what'd happen if it was taken away from them. Odds are that once the lab is out of their control, it'll be seized of all of its precious material. They won't be able to claim the mountain, but this should set back their experiments for a while. All because they wanted to tilt the power in their favor. At that, Faust speaks up, saying that if guys so malicious weren't behind the robbery, then who the heck could? Alst says that there aren't a whole lot of other kingdoms left to investigate, though once the thief's identity is provided, they'll be more than able to narrow it down.

For now, though, they have time to relax. With that, the party spreads out, though Demiurge stays back with Alst and Faust. Demiurge looks over the vial they'd gathered, feeling a slight sickness as he looks over it. Faust asks if he can hold it, though Demiurge makes sure that he can feel the vial itself. Faust remarks that it feels warm, to which Alst says that that's the magical aura emanating from it. There's nary a stronger source of magic out there. Hosha hasn't said how much they have or even the source, but she hypothesizes that there's not a lot left, considering the urgency of the request. Faust asks if that could just be about the super soldiers, to which the rat supposes that's possible. Demiurge, however, can't help but focus on that hypothesis. Alst takes the vial and pockets it, saying that she'll get this sent with a message to Hosha explaining the situation. In the meantime, they are to pass the time how they wish.
===Penultimate===
Players are allowed a moment to hang out for the night. They can't go out into the field this day, but for now, they can simply do whatever else they want. Night comes, and players sleep.

;Septmi 18th - Septmi 20th

These few days serve as free time for the party, free to simply do sidequests available, grind up, raise social links, and otherwise do as they wish. On the night of the 20th day, a messenger approaches the party and provides them a letter. Alst opens it, and she says that it seems the foe has been discovered. She says that they shall move out at the break of dawn. Vivalia says that she can't wait to give that nothing what they deserve for defying Father. Faust says that the misuse of such great magic cannot go unpunished. Hoisea says that this foe caused a terrible ruckus, and they shall be terminated for it.

And now, Demiurge is given the chance to add in his own phrase. "For those lost" or "For the future". Either way, the party cheers excitedly, and fans out, ready to slumber in preparation for tomorrow.

;Septmi 21st - 25th

With this, Alst explains that their next goal is clear. The foe originates over in the kingdom of '''Isalma''', a far younger kingdom in comparison to most. It's to the western edge of the mainland. So, players are thus tasked with going far west within the timeframe. They must go to the very edge of the mainland, across the plains and through various foes. Fortunately, it shouldn't be too tough a fight for them, and players should be more than able to reach the new location.
----
Eventually, the party makes it to the kingdom of Isalma, where they see the area is significantly smaller than the kingdoms they'd visited previously. It boasts a shorter wall, though scaffolding indicates some work will be done on it. It also features a castle built more akin to a pyramid, featuring a large base with segments stacked upon it. Some segments match the shape of the one below, while others are shaped to form spires or to form pillars to keep up a base that's larger than the one beneath it. It also features the similar separate districts and similar houses, boasting wood in a lot of their construction.

The group crosses, and Faust wonders out loud how a kingdom like this was able to cause that much panic. Alst says that they'd do better than to underestimate them. Vivalia declares that if they try anything, this whole kingdom shall surely face Father's wrath. Demiurge diverts the topic and asks Alst who they're looking for. She says that Hertsi reported to've come into contact with one of the kingdom's top captains themselves, '''Osol'''. A letter should've arrived here, and she says that the kingdom will be expected to produce the offending party so that they may properly interrogate them. Vivalia flashes her scythe expectantly while Hoisea asks if they can really expect them to cooperate. Alst brings up that Isalma's defenses are considerably weaker than most others. To defy a request such as this would be akin to dooming their entire population. 

Demiurge asks if she's really serious, to which she replies she speaks not for herself, but for Decka and Hosha. This is a very serious crime, and they've yet to establish a proper motive behind it even. Demiurge remarks that the people and guards here don't even look well equipped for an attack of that magnitude, to which she replies that'll be blood on the court's hands. Besides, with players like Hertsi around, odds are some other kingdom would've absorbed it. Maybe they'll beg for protection, maybe not. Point is, they will have to face some form of consequence.

With that, players are allowed more time to relax up until '''Septmi 26th'''.

;Septmi 26th

The party wakes again, and upon speaking with Alst, she explains that the deadline is not yet upon them. The kingdom will produce Osol eventually, but for now, they should remain prepared. Demiurge nods and begins to head out while the rat and the stag remain at the inn. As Demiurge heads out, Vivalia accompanies him, joined shortly by Faust as well. Demiurge asks Faust what he's doing following him, to which the cougar replied that he wanted to hang out with the Dragon more, now that things seem less life threatening. Vivalia comments that she can change that, though Demiurge sheathes her scythe for her and says he can tag along.

They head into the town, and some of the guards look at the trio a little curious. Demiurge glances at them, and Vivalia grimaces as she again reaches for her weapon, though Demiurge pushes her hand away. They walk and walk, before soon uncovering a group of beggars. They approach and offer some coin, and the beggars start to rush off. However, a young adult cat man stays behind, eyeing the Dragon curiously. Demiurge asks if he can help him, to which the cat says that they need to speak. He asks him to follow, and Demiurge does so, albeit in concern. Demiurge looks back. Faust seems equally concerned, though Vivalia offers an arguably more concerning reassuring grin as she glances at the blade of her scythe.

Demiurge and trio follow, the cat leading him towards a hotel-like building over in the market district, a wooden building standing five stories tall. The cat leads them in, and they're led up to the third floor. The cat knocks on a door, and it opens up. They approach curious, finding a room with old memorabilia in it. Faust and Vivalia look on curious, but Demiurge recognizes them: a lot of books and paintings from Hosha, way back in the day. The room itself is a single room with an adjacent bathroom, featuring a single bed at the far end. And sitting on the bed is a relatively old panther lady. She sees the group, and welcomes them. Faust asks if they know her, to which she replies that she'd actually hoped to speak with the Dragon himself.

Demiurge asks what she could wish of him, to which she asks him if he's heard of a Fawnk. Demiurge's eyes widen, and he says he has. The panther lady introduces herself as a descendent of her, '''Osol'''. Hearing the name, Faust and Vivalia draw their weaponry and point threateningly at her, though Demiurge motions for them to remain still, and the cat cowers behind her. Demiurge asks what she's doing in some random building, to which she replies that the court recommended she lay low after her mission. Speaking of, she knows they're here about that. At that, Faust asks if she chose to hide, why even stay in the town, to which Osol replies that she wished to talk directly to Demiurge. 

Faust asks if they should trust her, to which Demiurge replies that this doesn't seem like the set up for an attack. He steps forwards, and asks what she wished to talk about. She says that Fawnk had kept a piece of history running through the family: the origin of the material Hosha uses. Fawnk had noticed what'd happened to the ferals in Hosha during the wars on the monsters, but she didn't realize that Demiurge's disappearance had something to do with it, until a while later. When the Dragon was crushed by the Monster and it was subsequently killed, the gore was collected, and on top of the revitalization of the creatures afflicted with Purity, more came. She also remembered how she swore one of Maris's strikes had left Demiurge open for the killing blow, and though she couldn't be certain, the fact that Demiurge had vanished way back had convinced her that it was no accident. She wished to speak up against the king, though the public was under his thumb. After all, who could defy the one that'd slain the monsters that assailed their realm?

As the Pure creatures came, Fawnk broke her brother out of the dungeon and fled, bringing with her a small sector of detractors. They'd since tried to hide among settlements, making sure Hosha's secret remains with them. Eventually that group's descendants ended up here, and constructed their kingdom while Hosha, Decka, and Hertsi continued their experiments, and other kingdoms tried to exist. The group had seen the terrible power originated from Hosha, and had watched other kingdoms fall before being absorbed into Hosha or Decka, and had similarly seen Hertsi's growth into a super power. They realized that this material was not a blessing, but a virus intent on granting power to those that do not deserve it.

So, now they've been looking into plans to rebalance the powers. They couldn't simply dispose of the material, legend states the Dragon was immortal, so they could just take more from him. And it's not like they had the power to destroy the soldiers. So, instead... Faust completes the thought, saying they hoped to pit super power against super power. Osol nods, though Demiurge says that isn't right. Many people got hurt, and the material ended up with people that'd only abuse it. Osol explains that if they hadn't stepped in when they did, then Hosha or Decka would've made more, and been able to cause far more destruction. Now Hertsi's experimentation has been put down, a significant portion of the material has been used, and now they need to get rid of the rest of it... and to get Demiurge far away from them.

Vivalia asks if they should really expect that Osol truly has Demiurge's best interest in mind? Demiurge takes pause, though brings up that thus far the experiments seemed to be the most dangerous thing he's seen in this world. Faust says that it's true, plenty of trouble has arisen from the chemicals. Vivalia gives pause, though pulls her scythe back. She asks if the removal of the chemicals will really mean there won't be more pain. Something else would surely take its place, right? Osol supposes that theory makes sense, though for now they have the chemicals themselves to worry about. Either way, they needn't decide right away.

An important date is coming soon, and Demiurge will have to make that decision by then. Either Osol is taken in, Hosha takes the material they wish and develop more powerful soldiers, maybe threaten even more settlements, or Demiurge works with Isalma to make sure that future doesn't come. Faust and Vivalia look between each other, very uncertain about the conundrum. Demiurge thanks her for talking to them, and says that they'll consider. With that, he leaves, bringing Faust and Vivalia with.
----
After that, the night belongs to the player, free to do as they wish, though this time they can't leave the kingdom they're currently in.

;Septmi 27th

Next day comes, and Alst says that they're still waiting. She says that she understands how annoying it can be being cooped up in one place for a while can be, but they can't afford to stray too far from Isalma in case the kingdom meets their terms. Hoisea admits that, after all of this moving around, he kind of likes getting to settle in one place for a little bit. He's actually started hanging out with some guys at the pub, and it felt like they were really enjoying themselves. Demiurge asks if he has anyone back home, to which the stag replies not really. Back in Hertsi the royals wanted people working as much as possible, so he didn't really have a lot of time to socialize until he was taken in by the party.

Alst moves on, saying that they shall continue to wait. By Octuar 3rd, they'll get their answer. Demiurge asks what'll happen depending on the answer. If they submit the foe, said foe will be punished accordingly. If they don't submit the foe, then the kingdom itself will be considered compliant. Demiurge looks uncomfortable, though the rat explains that they caused some serious damage, they should be dealt with. Either way, they should try and find ways to relax until then. Right now, Demiurge supposes he'd like to hang out with Hoisea a little, and Alst says she'll keep watch of the inn.
----
The four head out, Hoisea seeming visibly more chipper. Faust asks what these guys are like, to which the stag replies that they're tough guys that actually helped him on his way over. Apparently there are some guys that don't like seeing those from Hertsi, so some guys tried to attack him, though those other guys were able to scare them off. Vivalia asks him if he asked them along for that reason. Hoisea rubs his arm and admits that that's the case, to which Demiurge says that he didn't need to be secretive about that. They'd be more than willing to help.

They walk and walk, though as they do, Demiurge hears some shifting nearby. He turns and spies a group of ratty-looking citizens coming from a nearby alley, several with weapons barely concealed. Demiurge gets the party's attention and they turn, spying the foes. The party begins to draw their weapons, and the citizens near, a wolf-looking one approaching. He says that this is no place for the Dragon-touched, or the magic-defilers. Faust says that they're just walking, and they don't want any trouble. The wolf says that they don't have to worry, there'll be no trouble as long as they don't start any. Hoisea asks what he means, to which the wolf explains that prominent members of the other kingdoms' military striking down random citizens surely wouldn't look good to any of the other kingdoms. Vivalia points out that the damage they sustain would surely prove it was self defense, though the wolf points out that soldiers feeling threatened by mere citizens wouldn't fly. 

The party feels a little uncertain at this explanation, and start to inch away as the citizens get closer. The wolf says that there doesn't need to be trouble. They and that dragoon knight need to get outta town. However, as they do, a powerful bulb of water strikes down, causing a divide between the party and the oncoming, threatening crowd. Then, from behind the party comes someone in a dark cloak. The wolf asks what they're doing, to which the one in the cloak replies that she was actually about to ask the same thing. These are guests, after all. Demiurge recognizes the voice. However, the lady draws a rapier and points it towards the opposing crowd, declaring that it is they that needs to stay down.

With that, players are suddenly thrust into a battle with the '''Threatening Crowd''', while also joined alongside the mysterious, rapier-wielding figure. On top of wielding water magic, she wields summon magic, allowing other party members to be able to cast a spell in addition to whatever act they perform. The mysterious figure, in addition to her water magic, hosts two summon spells for elemental magic, and one summon spell for healing, allowing a party member to be healed at the end of each turn. With her joined along, players are able to subdue the enemies.

The crowd is left panting and panting, and the wolf turns up and glares at them. He declares that they'll suffer for this, though the cloaked figure declares it's just the opposite otherwise. She lowers her hood, revealing herself to be Osol. Hoisea's brow raises in alarm, and the crowd is jaw-dropped. Osol declares that if this incident is to go public, then she'll simply explain the situation. She is in the position of a key witness, after all. If anyone finds out about this incident, then his crowd will be declared the perpetrators. In fact, if they don't scamper off now, she'll see to it that they get imprisoned for assault. The threatening crowd then turns and rushes away.

Faust asks what she's doing here, to which Osol declares that she wanted to keep an eye on the road after she heard talk of an incident the other day, sounds like their stag got involved. Hoisea asks if she knows who they are, to which she explains she knows they're here to make her pay. However, she hopes that they can respect her good deed by letting her go until the upcoming deadline. Hoisea rubs his head nervously and supposes it'd be rude to take her now. Osol says that she'll be sure to keep an eye on the streets here to make sure the lot of them are safe going around the area. And she intends to meet them come the appropriate date.

With that, she starts to walk away, though makes sure she's close enough to Demiurge to whisper to him that he's free to hang out with her a little more if he'd like. With that, she walks off, and the party watches as she leaves, clearly surprised at her action. Hoisea, meanwhile, thinks that they should go on to the pub and act like they should just move on from all of that. 


;Septmi 28th - Octuar 2nd

And with this, players are offered a choice to change history. Either they hang with Osol and raise her social rank to 3, or they don't and let the deadline come. That means that players either hang with Osol enough, or they let the eventual capture of Osol go through. Raising Osol's stats will lead to players siding with Isalma, and not doing it will lead to players siding with Hosha.
====Side with Isalma====
;Octuar 3rd
====Side with Hosha====
;Octuar 3rd

Eventually, Demiurge decides that he'd be better off hanging with Hosha. That, or he can't commit himself to Isalma. Either way, the deadline eventually comes, and Alst is mobilizing the party. She begins moving the party towards the meeting spot, but before they go there, however, a group of guards appears outside of the Isalma gates, and they thusly meet them. They see the many guards step out, including Fontaine. Demiurge asks what he's doing here, to which he explains that he figured he should mobilize his troops once he heard that the deadline was today. He wanted to make sure nothing goes down. Alst, however, explains that she appreciates it, but she doubts there'll be much need. Either way, she's grateful to him for coming to assist. For now, she asks that they stay out here and only come in once they hear conflict. The fennec fox nods, and so they stand by. 

The party heads into town and towards the the square, where the meeting is to be held. They go forwards, and plenty of guards are filling the area, ready for whatever may happen. The party gets in close, and there's a stare down of everyone involved. A few guards step forwards bearing spears and jingling chainlinks. Alst says that they were here to receive the perpetrator of the crime that'd faced Hosha and other kingdoms. One of the guards say that they know. However, they've thusly refused. Alst glowers, and Vivalia reaches for her scythe, saying it sounded like the terms were clear. Someone gets punished, or everyone gets punished.

One of the guards say that they understand, but they needed to decided that it's too important to stop now. They had a mission: ending the life of the weapons that threaten all on this world. Hoisea declares that the lot of them are the ones threatening this world, Faust declaring that they need to fess up for what they've done! With that, many of the guards step forwards, forming a wall of metal in an attempt to cut of the party. They find themselves needing to fight, so they take up weapons, and battle.

After the first volley of guards, the party can hear the marching of guards from behind. They turn, and see Fontaine leading the Hoshan guards into the city, intent on having them push back the enemy. Some guards break off as Fontaine stands beside the party members, at which he declares he heard the clashing, and decided to lend his aid! Demiurge thanks him, and so they turn to the foes as more guards make their way in. With that, they're forced into another battle, now joined by Fontaine, who draws a massive hammer in preparation for the battle.

With him, he wields Earth magic, proves to be fairly tanky, and also wields self-buffs to not only improve his sustainability, but also allow him to deal more damage. With Fontaine, players prove able to scare off the guards. Hosha's soldiers are keeping the line still, though one of the guards has warned the party that the citizens are taking up arms. Alst says that if they just focus on the armed men, those enemies will flank them. Fontaine asks if she intends them to strike down the citizens, to which she explains if anyone points a weapon at them, they'll have to take care of them.

Demiurge looks uncomfortable, and Hoisea asks what they're to do aside from that. Alst says that the kingdom's committed a crime and has declared itself complicit. So, they need to face punishment for it. She says that they need to drag the royals out for judgement. Those hurt, the distribution of that weapon... they're going to resolve all of that.

;Octuar 3rd - Octuar 11th

With this, Isalma's usual business isn't available for the duration of the dungeon crawl.

Upon reaching the front gates of Isalma, Hoshan soldiers will tell the party that citizens are taking up weaponry and are attempting a count towards their front line. Alst asks if they should really be worried about them, to which the guard says that it seems the government provided some dangerous weaponry. They've witnessed some explosives coming from a few houses. Hoisea ponders out loud that Osol must've exchanged some tech from Hertsi in exchange for giving them that solution. Fontaine thinks that they should subjugate those enemies before they storm the castle, to which Demiurge can't help but feel uncomfortable with the suggestion. 

Unfortunately, the rest of the party seems ready to go. The party is tasked with going around the street to try and find clusters of more dangerous citizens, the clusters of them sending bombs of elemental magic upon the road to the castle. Players find themselves forced to beat down enemies and eventually to destroy the hordes of citizens that are protecting the castle and pounding the soldiers. The party beats them into submission, and makes the road to the castle far easier to go through. With that, the party is tasked with heading there, though find that the ramp up to the front gates is given toughly blocked and locked tight. The soldiers say that while the citizens kept them at bay, they've been fortifying the prime entrance into the castle. 

The party approaches, and unfortunately, there are mages and rangers focusing fire on the ramp to the gate. Fontaine says that if they try and approach, they'll be assailed by enemy projectiles. Even moreso as they try and open that gate. Vivalia says that even trying to fly could prove deadly for them unless they provide enough of a distraction. And even then only two of them can fly, though Demiurge admits he hasn't actually flown yet. However, as he looks over the scene, he admits he has an idea. He hasn't totally wanted to try it, because it could be dangerous. But it might be their only option. Alst says that if he thinks it'll help, then he should. Demiurge sighs and supposes he'll try.

He stands towards the ramp and looks up to the fortified gate. He shouts that anyone in front of the gate should steer clear. That merely seems to keep the many soldiers in the castle on guard and they focus their weapons. Demiurge, meanwhile, thinks back to a few sights he'd seen on the Gardens. He takes in a deep breath, and Pure magic looks to glow within his chest. It starts to flow up and through his throat, until reaching his maw. He rears back, before unleashing a stream of Pure magic forwards, shooting up the ramp and into the gate, instantaneously shattering it and causing some of the stone around the gate to shatter. The beam continues through the insides, and the castle itself seems to quake as the beam rattles its insides. it pierces the other side and flows into the sky, dragging partially vaporized stone with it and out. The beam continues through the sky, causing a cloud to fade as the beam fades out.

The party is stunned at the display, and many of the soldiers within the castle are either toppled over, or left stunned at the sight. There's a pregnant pause throughout all of Isalma as those present take the display of sheer power put before them. Eventually, though, Vivalia speaks up and says that that is Father's power! Her declaration spurred those present back to the fighting spirit. Fontaine says the castle is open! It's time to engage the royals and bring upon them justice for their crimes! With that, players are tasked with storming the Isalma castle.
----
The party storms it, and the soldiers within are in a panic. There's currently a hole burned through the interior and towards the upper end of the castle. The damage has made it so there isn't a sufficient foothold if anyone was thinking of traversing it, and even if they did some tough-looking guards were grouping up at the upper edge. Alst says that it's time to reach the royals. Through the halls, and keep up the pressure! With that, players are tasked with going through the halls to try and traverse the castle, though there're notable wounds within it following Demiurge's previous strike. 

This involves going through the halls and maneuvering around toppled/splintered furniture, carefully crossing gashes in the infrastructure, and dealing with guards that're still dealing with the aftermath of the beam attack. They progress through the enemies and take care of enemy after enemy. They may have to gather keys from enemies to make their way deeper, throughout will encounter enemies that'll really force them to work as they resist, and even block, some physical attacks. And eventually, they make it to the throne room of the castle. 

They stand before it, and there, Alst and Fontaine warn that those royals will probably put up a hard fight. If they aren't careful, this could be deadly for them. They say to go in only if Demiurge is ready. Upon choosing to, the player opens up the door and heads in, finding that the throne room has cracks flowing through it, though there are only guards in there. Among them being Osol herself. She sees the party, and says that they're too late. The royals had the chance to escape, they've wasted their time. Vivalia raises her weapon and says that they're more than happy to take care of one despot. 

Osol steps forwards, and explains that it's not over. She still has the power to save the world. Fontaine asks what she's talking about, to which she replies she knows that the formula is on a limited life span. Those that are infected by it are losing life, and can only stay alive by feeding on unfortunates. They'll soon be either starved or slain as the monstrosities they are. And Hosha probably doesn't have the material to recreate it. Or, at least, they didn't until the Dragon unveiled himself. The party members, sans Vivalia and Fontaine, glance towards Demiurge curious. Osol asks Demiurge if he thinks he's safe standing side by side with them. They've taken his life once, what's to stop them from taking it again?

Demiurge can't help but pause at her words. He looks towards Fontaine, the latter looking up at him sympathetically. Demiurge turns back to Osol, and says that he can't just ignore the pain she's caused. Those lost in her attempt at destabilizing their kingdoms... they'll have to be paid for. At that, the panther sighs. She says that this can still be salvaged. She just has to keep their material away from them, and then deal with Hertsi. With that, she draws her rapier, and points it towards the party, guards standing beside her. At this, the party raises their weaponry. Osol says that the Draconian reign ends here!

With that, players are forced to fight '''Osol'''. The captain is accompanied by a pair of guards that resist all physical damage, making them stay long in the fight unless players are liberal with their magic usage. Making matters worse is the fact that Osol will use her summoning magic to allow any actions on their parts to also deal damage to a party member, or even to get healed each turn. Players will have to be mindful of the defensive ability of them while tending to Osol herself. If she goes down the fight is finished, but her guards will be able to interrupt attacks directed towards her under certain circumstance. Players can try to use ailments to stop them to prevent summon attacks and to prevent defense. With careful work, players will be able to overwhelm Osol.

She's forced to take a knee, panting and panting as she's too weak to mount a defense. And as she kneels there, Vivalia brings her weapon down and wrap the blade near her neck. The bat says that Father's bee running all around the world because of her. Fontaine, however, speaks up. He says that he's going to give her one last chance. Either she comes quietly and goes to the dungeon, or Alst will see to it that she's executed here. He seems ready to keep on talking, though the panther growls, interrupting him. She says that she'll sooner fall here than see the world fall to their machinations. The bat seems ready to rear back to finish her, only for the captain to take the blade in her own hands before tugging it deep into her throat.

The party's stunned as she suddenly administers the execution herself. There's a pregnant pause among the onlookers as she draws it deeper into her, before falling limp and crumbling onto the ground. The many onlookers are stunned and look upon her. Faust decides to speak up, asking if they should worry about what she says, the world falling, he means. Hoisea says that she's gotta be lying or something. Though, to take your life over a lie... Alst says that their business here is done. They'll round up the remaining soldiers and see if any of them know where the royals would've disappeared to. They've still ultimately sided with Osol's actions, and still need to face judgement. Fontaine speaks up and assures that once they do, they can put this nasty little chapter behind them.

With this finished, players have free time until the deadline.

;Octuar 12th

On this day, the Hoshan soldiers declare ownership of Isalma. Many citizens harmed in the attack are currently being tended to, while Alst is tending to those that served under the crown. Either they formally renounce their fealty to the previous rulers, or they are to be sent to the dungeon. Meanwhile, the rest of the party has gone back to Hosha, where Demiurge and Fontaine are on one of the walls of the castle. The fennec fox says that he's sorry that he had to awake to the world in this state. With so much chaos running around the realm. Demiurge says that it's fine, it's not his fault. 

Fontaine says that he's very thankful that Demiurge had gathered the people he had. Alst has far more conviction than he himself capable of, Vivalia shocking power, Hoisea great healing, and Faust a very interesting mind. The lot of them together are akin to a minor army. And Demiurge with that magical blast... The Dragon says that he doubts he'll use that more than once. A single blast like that is capable of so much damage... Fontaine says he understands. Either way, his parents are informed of the situation, and the people of Isalma are being questioned as to their royals' location. They've yet to gather their location, though once they do, they'll mobilize pronto.

For now, though, it may be a good time to relax. Demiurge, however, does have a question for the prince. He asks him if what Osol said there, about them running low on the solution, potentially needing more material to suffice them. Is there any truth to that? Fontaine says that the king and queen are the ones that know what goes on in the labs, though they've told him that their concerns lay in the illegal creation of super soldiers. Osol was merely trying to psyche him out, he's sure. Demiurge is mentally uncertain about his assurance, though he tells him that he's thankful for his words. With that, the Dragon and fennec fox separate, Demiurge exiting the castle while Fontaine stays behind.
===Finale: Hosha Route===
With this, players are allowed whatever free time they wish for night on Octuar 12th. Whatever they do, the night soon passes.

;Octuar 13th - Octuar 16th

Players are allowed free time, trying to relax while information is being extracted. During this period, Hertsi itself is doing... ok. A lot of the citizens are still shaken up, especially now that Hosha's in control of them. But players can still buy stuff and pal around on its streets. Eventually time passes, and the days run out.

;Octuar 17th

On this day, Fontaine comes forwards to speak with Demiurge. He says that it took a lot of questioning, but they got what they were after. They've now exposed that the royals have fled to the kingdom towards the middle western border, the kingdom of '''Echel'''. Alst says that that kingdom's normally friendly to each, it exports great medicine. She only hopes that they won't put up a fight. With that, Vivalia says that the perpetrators are within their sight, it's time to end this. With that, the party has a brand new destination.

;Octuar 17th - Octuar 19th

Thus, players are tasked with going through the field and to the appropriate location. It should be a fairly simple trek by now, with how powerful the party has gotten. They go to the very edge of the mainland, and towards the western edge of it.
----
They arrive. And there, they see the kingdom itself. Features architecture fairly similar to Isalma, though some structures look to be built out of stone, apparent exports from other kingdoms. In addition to this, there are lots of greenery, especially tall trees and bushes stretching from the streets. They arrive there, and there, Fontaine says that they'll contact the royals of this kingdom. They'll see whether or not they have who they're looking for, and, hopefully, they'll submit them. In the meantime, there's time to relax.

;Octuar 20th

On this day, the party's trying to keep themselves calm before what they figure may be a dangerous battle. Demiurge is allowed some time to speak with the party members, sans Fontaine, to see how they're feeling.
*Vivalia - She says that this kingdom sounds like it's a good kingdom. She remarks that it'd be a shame if they had to destroy it. Demiurge says that he doubts they'll have to do strike down this kingdom or anything. But for now, they should just make sure they're ready.
*Alst - Alst says that the fight in Isalma was already harrowing. But to take down the capital of medicine? That could be disastrous, not just for those Isalma royals, but for the world at large. She just hopes the people involved see reason.
*Hoisea - Hoisea says that he's been trying to relax, but he keeps getting worried. Luckily, it seems like this kingdom's developed some kind of relaxing drugs. Chew a couple of these, smoke some of this, he's actually feeling a little mellow. He offers Demiurge some.
*Faust - The cougar says that when he joined Demiurge, he never imagined getting wrapped up in large scale fights like these. Demiurge apologizes for getting him involved, to which he claims it's ok. He agreed to it... he just should've realized what he'd get involved in.

With that, or when players speak with Fontaine outside the castle, they're free to advance the plot.

And upon interacting with Fontaine, he reveals that they have good news, and they have bad news, and they're sort of one in the same. It turns out the royals aren't here. Demiurge asks where they could be, to which Fontaine inquired about that too. Apparently the royals had approached them in hopes of shelter, but they'd waved them away, not wanting to be involved in the conflict. They say last they saw, the royals were heading to the beach to the west of the kingdom. That place is supposed to be nothing but sand and some positively nasty creatures. Alst says that anyone would be lucky to go in there alive, though Vivalia says they can't leave anything to chance.

With that, Fontaine says that it pains him to say this, but they have one last journey to complete. Infiltrate the shore, and make sure that the foes that evade judgement are given justice. It won't be easy, but this is the last step needed to close this chapter of history!

With that, the destination is clear: infiltrate the beach, and seek out the Isalma royals.

;Octuar 20th - Octuar 30th

With this, players are tasked with going along the '''Western Strip''', the strip of beach separating the mainland from the sea on the western edge. Here, players are back to battling many ferals, from crabs to octopi to shark to turtles, and even some fairly big scorpions. Fortunately, they didn't have too terribly much to worry about. There's a noticeable lack of structures in their way. It's moreso a straight shot to a section of the beach as they take care of creatures, and stumble upon the corpses of some ferals. The party can only imagine a few people that'd be behind this, but despite this sight, they press on. And as they do, Fontaine speaks up, saying he sees a pair of figures up ahead. He's sure these are who the they're looking for, and says they should only approach if they feel ready. They took down some pretty powerful creatures apparently.

The group chooses to go into battle, and they approach. There, they see the king and queen of Isalma. One's a muscular brown wolf guy in a regal outfit, though they're tattered and stained with dirt and sand. The other's a snake woman with teal scales and a dress adorning her slender body. Both of them are seen with a greatsword strapped to their back. This is '''King Ardent''' and '''Queen Hoffle'''. Ardent says that they have nothing. They've been cast from their kingdoms and refused aid. Do they really have anything to gain from pursuing them? Alst says that they let themselves be complicit with criminal actions, and that they can't just avoid judgement as they hole up in the middle of nowhere. 

Hoffle says that they had the time to live their own life. Were they to keep them alone, they would've just withered away. But instead, they brought the source of evil here, and now they have the chance to end this. Demiurge asks if he's referring to him. Hoffle says that his very blood has brought forth monstrosities. If he continues in this path, more monsters will come. If their world is to survive, he must dispose of those that usher in the monsters, and offer his body to this desolate land so none may take it back. Demiurge says he's so sick of being seen as bad here. He's tried his hardest to appeal to these people, but then they all had to decide to turn a simple dream into a competition! And now they're calling him the source of evil?! Vivalia says that Father won't listen anymore, clearly. Hoisea says they made their bed, and it's time to lie in it. Faust tells them that they've gone too long acting like they have nothing to answer for. Demiurge declares that it's time to end this.

With that, players are forced to fight '''King Ardent''' and '''Queen Hoffle'''. The duo both wield a greatsword, and with it are able to deal hefty damage, do aoe slash attacks, and even deal smash attacks with the flat edge of the sword. Ardent wields Earth, buff, and debuff magic, while Hoffle wields Water, poison, and multi-hit. Hoffle also seems to lean towards agility while Ardent leans towards strength, with Ardent preferring to improve the queen's offense/agility, or even luck so her ailments land more often. Players will have to plan to take care of the two of them, though be weary: taking down one will revitalize the health of the other. 

When one goes down, the living one laments the loss of the other, though will declare that they will avenge them, and unmake the terrible future. They take the dropped greatsword, and bear both powerful blades while glaring down the party. If Ardent is left standing, he acquires multi-hit and water magic. If Hoffle is left standing, she acquires buff and debuff magic. Either way, the remaining boss will acquire a dangerous power boost, and players will have to be careful with the new moveset. Though, with enough work, players should be able to overtake the enemy, and finally put this chapter to rest.

The fight wraps up, and the two royals lay dead, the golden sand now stained crimson as the two lay in a heap. The party pants and pants, and sheathes their weapons. Faust asks if there're anymore loose ends, to which Alst says that that should be everything. They tracked down the criminals, the kingdom supported those criminals, and they've since administered judgement on those that perpetrated, and that supported them. Now, things should be fine. Vivalia admits that after so long dealing with these guys, she's surprised that things are really going to go back to normal. Hoisea then points out, albeit a little uncomfortable, that it won't quite be normal, thinking back to a few of the kingdoms they've gone through.

Fontaine then speaks up, saying that everyone's done great. They'll have to prepare a feast for the lot of them after everything's done!

After that, players have free time up until the deadline.

;Octuar 31st

After a lot of work, the party's been welcomed into Hosha's castle. The crew headed over, and decided to dress up nice. The various party members get to put down their weapons and adopt some fancier clothes, and are led into the ballroom, where the room is set up with many fancy dishes and noblemen, as well as a few super soldiers standing guard. Vivalia wears a nice dress, Alst wears a tux, Hoisea and Faust wear suits, and King Ferrox, Queen Lazili, and Prince Fontaine are dressed like usual. Demiurge dresses similarly, and can see the various party members enjoying their time together. 

For this moment, players are allowed to interact with the various party goers, among which includes several npcs players might've come into contact with either in or out of sidequests, as well as other party members. Interacting with the king and queen will lead to the scene moving onto the next.
*Vivalia - Vivalia remarks that the people have been awfully kind to her. Demiurge asks how it feels, to which she explains that she has no opinion on the thoughts of others. She was content with living as a terror of the night. It does feel warm right now, but right now she asks Demiurge how he feels about them treating her. The Dragon asks if it really matters, to which she replies that he is Father, and his grace is her life. Demiurge shakes his head and tells her to be good to the people.
*Alst - The dragoon knight greets Demiurge, saying that she's grateful he's been able to lend a hand. Demiurge says that her direction has helped them for a long time now. Alst says that the spirit of the Dragon has helped them achieve their victory. His presence has been a guiding light among all of them, and she is eternally grateful to his help. And now, she hopes that he will continue to guide them. Demiurge is sure that he'll help out their people still.
*Hoisea - The stag admits that he feels like a real fish out of water. Hertsi and Hosha have always been bad bedfellows, but everyone seems a-ok with him here. Still, he can't help but feel like he's still being judged. Demiurge says that he's been wholly helpful in all of their efforts. He's one of the reasons this whole conflict is done for. The stag thanks the Dragon, and tells him that none of this would be possible without him.
*Faust - Faust says that after all that walking, he's not sure if he can realistically settle down anywhere. He's gotten to learn a lot about magic and materials on his trip, and so he'd still like to go around the area. Demiurge says that he's sure a few of the guys would be willing to go with him, but he himself will still have to hang back and monitor for those moments when mortal-kind needs his aid. Faust says he understands. He wishes him luck, and thanks him for everything he's done for him.
*Fontaine - The prince says that he's surprised this's pulled off so well. He's always relied on captains and his parents to lead, but now he feels more confident about what it takes to lead. Demiurge says that the first step's usually the hardest. Fontaine asks him if it's usually this hard for him, to which the Dragon replies that he thinks he's starting to get the hang of it. Fontaine nods, and assures he will be sure that he's ready.

Upon meeting Ferrox and Lazili, the fennec fox man and the jaguar lady seem excited to see him. Ferrox says that he's so thankful Demiurge has stuck with them throughout this entire journey. Demiurge says there's no way he could let those guys get away with abusing that solution. Lazili says that she's grateful he could. And, she'd hate to ask so soon after they'd completed their journey, but she fears something else has come up, and his help will be needed. Demiurge perks up at that, and Ferrox says that Osol's done a fair amount of damage, and he'll be needed to help repair it. Demiurge asks what he should do, to which they reply that they'll have to discuss the full details outside of view of the public. They ask he comes in tomorrow, and the guards will lead him. Demiurge nods in affirmation.

With that, orchestra begins playing slower songs. At that, Ferrox cheers, and says that they cannot miss out on this. With that, he and the jaguar head out to the field. Demiurge begins to head down, and as he does, he notices the several party members looking upon him. And at this, he suddenly realizes that they may wish to dance with him. With this, players are able to choose to dance with any of them, or neither. The scene that follows isn't too different depending on who you choose. It's just a simple warm scene between Demiurge and whoever players choose.

Either way, the dance soon wraps up, and the Dragon goes to sleep, the various party members going to their own quarters to relax.

;Novi 1st

The next day, Demiurge wakes up. And as he does, he notices that a lot of the people in the inn have gone elsewhere. He does, however, find Vivalia. She says that the various people thought to cool down after their time at the dance. Alst said she was returning home, Faust said he'd go with Hoisea, and Fontaine went back to the castle. Demiurge asks if she's going anywhere, to which she replies that her place is still beside Father. Demiurge says he needs to be somewhere, so she can join along if she wishes. She gratefully accepts the offer, and with that they head to the castle. And once there, the guards lead him through the halls.

He's lead through, though the guards decide to keep Vivalia back, them still not sure that she's safe to keep around. Demiurge is lead towards the ballroom from before, where the king and queen are waiting for him. Demiurge asks where Fontaine is, to which they say that he's currently being instructed about the current circumstances in Isalma and Hertsi. For now, the three of them have business. Demiurge says that this is about Osol's damage, and asks what they wish of him. To that, Lazili answers that the little rebel had put a large dent in their limited supply of the solution. And, unfortunately, many of their staff need it to survive. However, this incident has revealed to them that just scraping up the gore is hardly a sufficient solution.

Demiurge's eyes narrow in worry at that, and he asks what they mean. At that, Ferrox says that the Dragon's come back from so much, been able to keep alive despite being rendered a pile of muck. So, they'd pondered... what about the heart? Demiurge straightens out in worry, but before he can do anything, a knight wielding a mace strikes him over the head with enough force to knock him out. 

...

Time passes, and Demiurge slowly wakes up. He blinks, his vision fuzzy. He sees the tiles of some sort of lab overhead. He tries to talk, though finds he's silenced. He tries to raise an arm, though finds he's restrained. He looks around, and finds he's on some metal table, straps keeping his limbs, tail, and wings down, with a separate one locking his mouth up tight. He's also suddenly aware of a scratching at his chest. He looks down, and can see some weasel man testing various tools out, blades of varying strengths and sizes against his chest. At that, the Dragon shifts, and he hears the voice of Lazili spur the weasel to work harder.

Demiurge tries to lift up, only to feel the blade the weasel holds pierce him. He let out a muffled wail, prompting the king and queen to glance towards him, realizing he's awake. The king tells the weasel to hurry up, there's no telling how long they can hold him! The weasel thus grunts and tries to draw downwards, pain coursing through the Dragon. With enough pulling and tugging, they manage to pull down to Demiurge's abdomen. With that, the weasel reaches for the divide he's made, and begins pulling in either direction. Demiurge wails and tries to pull and wriggle, but he can't move. Eventually, with a disgusting "snap", he's opened up to them. And for a moment, those in front of him stood in awe. 

Ferrox remarks that for one so divine, they look so... mortal inside. Demiurge, meanwhile, is still trying to tug himself free, misery coursing through the whole of his form. Lazili, meanwhile, steps forwards. She reaches towards the cavity, and Demiurge can feel his heartbeat banging away in his ears as she shuffles through. Then, in a shower of pure blood, she pulls something out, the sight obscured by the blood, and his veins pulling up with it. That beating is getting faster, and Ferrox tells the weasel to finish this in one swing. The king grasps the many veins in one bundle, and the weasel rears the blade back, before delivering a swift chop through the veins, separating him from what he could only assume was his heart.

Demiurge can feel darkness creeping through him, and can only watch as Lazili cradles the heart as if it were a babe. Then, his vision fades...

Following this, players will move onto the [[#Conqueror Era|Conqueror Era]].
==Conqueror Era==
Demiurge groans and shuffles. He splays his digits, and can feel a surface beneath him. He starts to get up, and realizes he's on a roof somewhere. In a worry, he suddenly clutches at his chest, and feels his heartbeat. He sighs, and slowly takes in more of his surroundings. He notices he's on top of some well decorated, red building with a feudal aesthetic. There are many trees below the ceiling line, covering much of the landscape below, though he does see lamplight. He looks around, and notices... water surrounding the landscape? He asks where the rest of the land is to no one in particular, though a familiar voice answers that this is an island, land surrounded by water on all sides. 

Demiurge turns, and sees Sophia of all people there. Elated, he rushes and hugs her, her hugging back. They pull away, and Sophia asks "Oh, dear Demi... what have you done?" He's confused at the assertion, and asks what's happened while he slept. She says she cannot answer to him herself the state of the world, but something terrible has happened. As the Dragon chosen to the world, he has to learn the danger that lingers on it. However, one who should aid him will arrive soon, so she recommends he waits here. Demiurge assures that he will, though asks if she can hold him a little more. She assures that she can, and they keep hugging.
===Early===
Eventually, Sophia pulls away from Demiurge. She says that the one to help him will arrive soon. She also says that before he goes, she will let him know of one more power. No matter how bountiful a creature's love, everyone needs to learn when it's time to cut their losses and put down a life that's too far gone. So, within each Dragon comes the power to end all life on a planet. Demiurge recoils, saying he doesn't want anything like that. However, she places a hand on his chest, and Pure magic flows into him, and he feels something unlock in him. At that, the player's informed that Demiurge unlocked the Skill "Armageddon". She says that knowing this is not to be feared, but to know he merely has the option. If he ever decides that the world's too much, then this is always at his disposal. She wishes him luck with his journey. And thus, she extends her wings, before suddenly darting to the sky, leaving behind a mighty gust. The bronze Dragon watches as she flies away, before he hears some noises from an opening nearby. Demiurge turns, and sees a set of stairs that leads up to the roof. And from it comes a fox-like lady boasting nine tails. What's weird, though, is that she was naked (though none of her nudes are seen).

Demiurge's eyes widen and he brings up a wing to cover up his view of her. The fox comes up more and sees the strange figure, asking calmly who's there. Demiurge says he didn't mean to wake up while she's indecent. The fox questions what he means by "wake up", before taking in some of his details. She comes closer, remarking on the bronze scales, the divine wings... She peers around his wing, taking note of his face. The Dragon blushes and pulls away, and she asks if he's indeed ''the'' Dragon. He answers that he is "the Dragon". She smiles and remarks that she'd been looking forwards to this day, she just didn't expect it to come so suddenly. She welcomes him to the world, and to the '''Land of Joy'''.

Demiurge says he'd like to talk more, though he'd prefer to talk to her when she's dressed up. She says that she doesn't exactly see the issue, but if he's so concerned, she can. She offers to explain while she changes. She knows there's a lot to go over, and she'd hate to just spend a lot of time sitting down to explain it all to him. Demiurge supposes he can do that.
----
They've headed in, heading into a room with rice-paper walls and wooden tiles, flowing water running through the inside and under the tiles to create an ambient room with the sounds of the outside. Inside, there're several vases, several clothes just scattered around, and a large pile of pillows presumably for sleeping on. Said pile has an incense candle ready to be lit. Nearby, there's a changing curtain with the symbol of a star soaring through the cosmos. The nine tailed fox that greeted Demiurge had taken a few clothes behind there, and as she changes, she says that Demiurge might wanna sit down, it's a long story. She offers the pillows if he so wishes.

Demiurge looks around curious, though sits down on the floor. She then says that this all started way back with Hosha, right? Well, once upon a time, the Dragon, that's him, went missing. His daughter, some bat lady, grew worried for him when he didn't return from the castle. The guards had apparently told her that he was offering to be a powerful soldier for them, but she didn't buy that. She'd rounded up his old companions and used them to search the castle. Through many fights, they'd managed to uncover the kingdom's labs, where they found poor him. His clean coat of scales shredded nearly bald, his teeth, horns, and claws harvested, and his chest torn open and raided as if a bandit had found it.

The group had reasoned that there was only one group of people that could do that, and they each defected. Even Fontaine chose to betray his parents. However, they held the authority over the army, and the army couldn't exactly argue with the possibility of their kingdom getting stupidly powerful. So, they thought to cut their losses and bring the Dragon far, far away. However, that bat and the mirror guy decided they wanted to do some damage. Alst, Hoisea, and Fontaine raced out of Hosha, though supposedly looked back to see and hear a massacre from within. They decided not to listen for much longer, and thusly continued to flee with the Dragon's body in tow. 

They made it to Loyst, where they'd realize they'd have limited time to get out before what remained of Hosha, and their allies in other kingdoms, came down on them. What's worse was that they still had whatever they harvested off of Demiurge (him). The three had warned Loyst of the threat, and said that they'd need to flee, off the mainland if they have to. So they took up a boat and went off into the distance, where they eventually came upon this decently large piece of land in the middle of the sea. And with it claimed, Hoisea, Alst, and Fontaine realized that as long as the docks stood, there's a chance Hosha and allies would make it here, so they, along with members of Loyst's kingdom, would decide to head out to prevent that from happening.

Ever since, the Land of Joy grew. Demiurge looked over them, and slowly grew back that which was stolen from him. Even his heart. They kept him up as a national treasure to look over the land as it developed, and she herself stands as '''Chief Exulta'''. And having heard all of that, Demiurge is stunned. He has a lot of questions going through his head, but for now, he asks what's gone on in the mainland. Exulta answers "Don't know, don't care." As far as anyone knows, the mainland still wants Demiurge's body, literally, and so they stayed here, just waiting for the world to end. Demiurge asks what that means, to which she explains that it doesn't really matter. He's spent so long looking down, it's about time for him to come out and enjoy the Land of Joy!

With that, Exulta steps out. She bears some form-fitting pants and shirt, them seeming to accentuate her figure. Said clothing is also pink around the thighs and torso, and purple towards the legs and arms. She also has a flowing pink wrap that hovers behind her, said wrap hovering over her shoulders and behind her head. Demiurge says that he'd really like to know what she means about the world ending, to which she says she's in her walking clothes, so it's too late to talk her out of it. She thus starts walking, and offers that he should follow her if he doesn't want to be alone with her stuffy guards. Demiurge realizes that he can't talk her out of this, and thus starts following.
----
The duo heads down more and more, and steps out through the front door, a door with a shrine gate positioned in front of it. They step out, and Demiurge is greeted to a strangely homely site. The ground has been stripped of its grass and given simple stones to mark paths. The large building Demiurge stepped out of appeared to be at the north end of the island, and immediately past it is a brass fountain depicting Demiurge himself, the facsimile seeming to roar out a rain-like stream. It's late in the day, so there aren't a lot of guys walking around it except for a couple guys lounging on benches near it. And past the fountain is a market area that features a restaurant, massage parlor, clothing shop, pharmacy, cosmetics, bath house, so on. And past that is a residential district that's about as big as your typical neighborhood. Sprinkled along the trail are red lampposts with paper lanterns, lighting the night.

Exulta continues to walk, and Demiurge follows. She welcomes him to the lap of luxury. Hers is the only military for miles, no taxes people don't have to work, some of the businesses are finding ways to work around the money disparity, and the law is positively lax around here. The Dragon asks what she means, though he's cut off when, as they pass by a couple (a fox and a cat), he notices that the two of them are naked. The camera doesn't show anything untoward, but Demiurge clearly saw. He goes to point that out, though notices a few other nude guys, intermixed with some clothed. Demiurge asks Exulta what's going on.

She says that she explained earlier, the world is ending. Some crazy things are going down on the mainland, and the lot of them in here are just trying to have fun around here. So, some decided they're perfectly fine going around naked, though she personally prefers the suit that lets her show off. Demiurge says that this can't be great for the people here, though she says that if he doesn't like that, he oughta stay indoors during Frises, before suggestively whistling. She then says that that's the spirit of the Land of Joy: Do your thing. If someone does something that pisses a dude off, then it's up to those guys to sort it out. Demiurge asks why she doesn't do anything, to which she remarks that the world's ending, she doesn't gotta worry about lifting a finger. 

Anyways, she's going to get a drink, and she asks Demiurge if he wants anything. Demiurge says he's ok, and she shrugs. With that, she visits one of the buildings, and comes out with a bunch of drinks. One in either hand, and a pair tucked under either arm. She says that it's her treat. He's spent all this time sleeping, surely he can let go. Demiurge supposes he can try a sip or two. With that, she saunters back to the building they'd started at, Demiurge following suit.
----
They make it back to her original home, where she lays back on a bunch of pillows, and drinks. Demiurge is holding one bottle and looks down at it curiously. Exulta drinks, before belching. She asks Demiurge if anything happened while he slept. Demiurge said he was just sorta in a limbo, sometimes able to feel himself grow if he focused. She then remarks "500 years of nothing? Damn!" Though she drinks more, and Demiurge is still looking over his bottle. Demiurge asks what she does as a chief. She says that she just sorta enjoys the sights, farts about, and sometimes sleeps the day away. She then asks, in an unrelated note, if Demiurge smells popcorn. Curious, Demiurge sniffs, though winces and covers his nose. Exulta snickers and drinks some more.

Demiurge then asks if that's really all she does. What about law enforcement, and maintaining supplies, and teaching stuff? She says, first off, the world's ending, so they don't have to worry about that. Second, the Land of Joy's been peaceful for a long, long time so far. The people don't really need to do crime, so they, well, don't. So, things get to be quiet for the most part, especially while the mainland's crap ''stays'' on the mainland. Those jokers are probably worrying about the cataclysm while her and her friends are simply lounging. Demiurge then speaks up, saying that she keeps saying that the world is ending. He asks her what exactly this end of the world is.

She drinks some more, before burping and sighing. She says that she looked into the future, and saw a bronze wave sweeping the land. Demiurge asks if she talks about him, to which she replies of course not, he's a bit of a softie, a lightweight. However, she tells him to remember: not ''all'' of him left Hosha. Those guys 500 years ago apparently did a fair amount of damage, but not enough if her future vision is to be accepted. A bronze wave will come, and destroy the world, and those that try to stand in its way will be consumed. Demiurge asks if it can be stopped, to which she says that maybe it can be, there are bits and pieces of it that do go down. But buy and large, that wave will destroy everything.

There's a bit of a pregnant pause, and she groans. She says that he's really bumming the mood. Demiurge says that he should get to the mainland, prompto. However, as he stands up, he feels a bit weak and sits back down. She remarks that he's gotten a bit tired. She says that the bronze wave will consume that which faces it, so he'd be better off hanging here and getting to feel the Joy. However, she supposes he can sleep on it. She herself is feeling a little too tired to argue. Demiurge wants to argue, but he sighs. He says a nap sounds nice, to which she nods. She scoots aside and offers him a spot on the pillowscape. 

Demiurge has to admit that it looks nice, and lays down on it. It feels pretty soft. She huddles up to Demiurge and loudly yawns. And then, the two of them sleep, Demiurge stays up a little more to think about what he's understood. He's had a lot to learn about, and has just dealt with this really weird Land of Joy. He tries to think about what he could possibly see on the mainland, and eventually forces himself to sleep.

;Novi 2nd

Today, Demiurge wakes up, and Exulta wakes up as well, her yawning loudly. Demiurge, meanwhile, stands up, thinks back on the stuff he's learned, and lets out a deep breath. He turns to the kitsune, and asks her which way the mainland is. Exulta's ears perk up in surprise and she faces him. She asks what he wants to know that for, to which he says he needs to face the bronze wave. He has a duty to this world, and if that duty involves stopping whatever of him is left out there, he will. Exulta, furrows her brow, and sighs.

She says that she's always a bit of a joker, but she's not joking about her vision. She sees death, destruction, and one of insane power. If he is to challenge the wave, death is sure to claim him. Despite this, Demiurge says he wants to find out what's going on. The kitsune sighs, and says that if he ever regrets his choice, he can come back here. She then leads Demiurge up to the roof, and points southwards, telling him that if he flies in that direction, he'll reach it. She tells him to go that way, and look out for the bronze wave. Demiurge nods, flairs his wings, and thanks her for overlooking him. With that, he flies off, Evulta watching.
----
Demiurge watches his wings, almost surprised at how easily he's taken to this. He's soaring through the air for the first time in his life. He wishes to himself he could actually enjoy it, though. He keeps flying and flying, and soon makes it to the mainland, where he can see the old kingdom of Loyst looks to be more fortified than what he once saw. He'd notice a few guys on the street would glance up curious. Demiurge flew more and more, and decided that his first destination would be Decka and Hosha, where he thinks he'll get a read on whatever is going on.

He flies towards where he last remembered the location, and as he approached, his flight would slow down as he sees what was Decka. The castle stands extremely tall and fortified with metals and cannons. The wall that protected it once stands larger, and features many angular buildings within, and from on high Demiurge could see clusters of heavily armored guards. The Dragon descends cautiously, and as he does, the guards notice him and... welcome him. Demiurge comes closer and closer, and the many guards take a knee to him. The Dragon furrows a brow as he looks over them, and asks what's going on here. The guards say that "her divinity" has been expecting him, and seeks to converse.

Demiurge asks what they wish of him, to which they say her divinity wishes an audience with the progenitor. Demiurge thinks back to his current powerset, and thinks he might be able to handle himself. So, he says that he'll go along. So, the guards lead him on, bringing him to the ramp and through the front gate. And inside, Demiurge couldn't help but notice a sort of coldness to this castle unique from any other. There was usually decorations or the such to lighten up the mood, but here there weren't paintings or rugs. Instead, there stood murals on the halls, each showing the silhouette of a dragon looming over prostrating people, while those that didn't kneel were turned to bones.

The guards led him through, wandering through a labyrinth-like network of halls, until he's eventually lead up to a room halfway to the top. Demiurge is let in through a pair of sliding, metal doors. And inside, he sees that the room he's in is akin to a giant prison. There were several blocks around with prison bars in place, many guards positioned around the area, some of them wielding rifles, and the cells... They looked worryingly cramped, and bore all manner of prisoners, from children to middle aged. Though some of the prisoners looked saddened and scared, many, many others seemed to be in a trance, almost blind to the world around them. Demiurge looks around curious, and asks what this room is for. The guards say that her divinity will explain. Demiurge is led through more and more, when some guards in gleaming, golden armor with mighty tower shields step forwards, prompting the other guards to stop. One of the guards says that her divinity is here, having heard the news.

The many guards spread, unveiling an odd pair. One is a gecko woman in a decorated, bronze-colored suit and with what looks like an in development guns trapped to her back. Beside her, however, was a figure that truly fit the image of "divinity". She towered over the many guards, with Demiurge being the only being to be taller than her in the room. She was a shredded force, looking about as thick as a building. She wore similarly thick armor, it made of bronze, and covered the majority of her body. Said armor also boasted a pair of wing-like extensions around the shoulders, a blade thicker than the average arm strapped to her back, and a helm with the shape of a Dragon's head. and through its hole, Demiurge could see the scarred face of a bear.

She sees the Dragon, and greets him in a powerful voice. She says that she's waited for this day, to greet the Dragon that breathed life into this world. Demiurge asks who she is, to which she explains that she is '''Aunqiller''', the one born to pick up the world Demiurge left behind. She's been laying the seeds for the world he's sought so hard to see realized. It's not ready yet, but soon, all land will be claimed under one. Demiurge asks what this room is or, to which she says that they too have been chosen for the cause. And at that, Demiurge asks what she means.

The world he's wished for cannot be built by one and one alone. So, they've been brought here to be sculpted into one that can create that world. The Dragon says that she's enslaving them, to which she says she's bringing about the world needed. Demiurge remarks that she keeps saying that, that this is the world he's asked for. He says that he never wanted this to be a competition, that he never wanted the people here to kill each other just to "own" land. Aunqiller says that no matter what he says, this is the will. They're here to claim the world, and claim it they will. That's the Dragon's will. Demiurge points out that ''he'' is the Dragon, and that ''he's'' saying this isn't his will! There's a pregnant pause, and the bear remarks that he's not impressed.

Demiurge asks what he's supposed to be impressed by. She points out that she's building up into the most powerful force on the land, and her kingdom is currently among the most knowledgeable in the art of combat and training. If none else, hers deserves to be the one in control. She asks Demiurge if he disagrees with that. The Dragon says that she shouldn't be worrying about combat and conquering at all! She says that the world's raised to necessitate her need. To necessitate someone like her. She then says that if he cares for the world, he will grant Decka its blessing and fight with them. Demiurge declares that he will never fight alongside her.

She sighs. She then says that if not as an ally, he'll do well as a resource. She then reaches back, and pulls forth a giant sword, said sword suddenly lighting up with electric magic. She rears it back and sends a beam of electricity at the Dragon, who's forced to dodge to the side. He goes to punch at her, though she brings the sword up to block. She swings it to the side to parry the blow, and then swings at him, dealing a decent blow to his side. She then shoulder-rammed him, driving him back a few feet. And with him disoriented, she'd send another electric beam, and manage to strike him with a painful bolt. The two continue fighting, and Demiurge manages a few decent hits, though Aunqiller presses her advantage.

Eventually, Demiurge finds himself forced to break away and race upwards. Guards try to fire on him, and he is forced to weave away from the blows. He turns to one part of the castle, and belches out a beam of Pure energy similar to back when they challenge Isalma. However, he'd notice the walls of this castle seemed to absorb the energy moreso than those of the castle back then. Demiurge is forced to take more blows, and can only look in horror as the wall resisted the blow. A hole is formed, and he's able to go through it. He ends up in a hallway several feet away, and darts through it, making his way to a large window. He flies straight through it and to the fresh air outside.

He flies and flies, looking back to see several guards at the window, only able to watch as he fled. He flew and flew more and more, going off in some random direction. He flew and flew, hoping to get far away from Aunqiller.
----
Demiurge flaps and flaps, huffing and puffing as he flees from the scene of the fight. He groans and starts to descend, soon touching down on grassland and crashing, weakened from his endless flapping. He lays there on the ground for a bit, trying to catch his breath. As he heaves and heaves, he soon sees lights in the distance, spying another kingdom. It boasts a wall that obscures the inside of it. The Dragon doesn't have much else to go on, so he presses towards it, crawling through the soil to get to the road. He crawls and crawls and soon gets before it. He looks up to it, seeing a gate between him and the inside, and no guards out front.

He groans in defeat, and collapses, passing out. And starts to fall unconscious. Though as he does, he can hear the gate start to open up. He sees some figures approach, but he's grown too weak to see who they are.

;Novi 3rd

Demiurge blinks awake, confused. He starts to get a read on his surroundings. He's in some lavish room with a persian flair to it, white walls and a bed he rests on whose curtain is done up in the style of a funnel, making Demiurge sort of feel like he was in a vase. He spreads the curtain and steps out, finding himself in a marble room with nice bright, white architecture around the setting, and a channel of water running under the boards. He steps forwards and scans around, before noticing that he smells like soap. 

He steps forwards and soon finds a door. He opens it up, and is surprised by some well dressed raccoon man suddenly opening it. The raccoon asks how he's feeling, to which Demiurge replies that he's just woken up, and he feels a little sore. He asks what's happened, to which the raccoon says he was found outside and looking pretty worse for wear, so they brought him in. He asks Demiurge what happened, to which he answers he got in a fight with this Aunqiller lady. The raccoon gasps, surprised that he's actually gotten out alive. 

Either way, he knows he's just woken up, but the king and queen wish to speak with him. In the meantime, he's free to bathe at least until noon. With that, the raccoon bows, and leaves Demiurge alone with his room. And, looking over it, the Dragon realizes he does have some things to learn about with this new setting.
*In a room adjacent from the current room is a nice, tiled room with marble steps leading up to a basin. Manipulating levers around it causes water to run in, and when water runs in, the tiles within the basin heat up, causing the water to heat as well. Demiurge takes a brief dip in it, swabbing himself with the nearby soap, and steps out feeling far more clean than he'd felt in a while.
*Looking at a dresser nearby, Demiurge can notice a framed painting only slightly larger than the average palm. Said painting shows a ferret lady in a regal purple dress, a falcon man in a regal black uniform, and a ferret girl in a pink dress.
*Looking into the nearby closet, Demiurge can spy several suits. They appear to be akin to what the falcon in that painting wore. Of course, they're quite too small for the Dragon.

Interacting with the door allows players to leave the room.
----
Demiurge is led through the insides, where he gets to witness the smooth, marble architecture. Looking around, he sees carpet laid out and paintings, showing off the trio featured in the painting in the room. The paintings seem to depict the falcon being a king, the older ferret being a queen, and the ferret girl being a princess. Some paintings show them establishing a a healthy society protected by walls. Some paintings show soldiers driving back lines of forces tampered by Demiurge's blood. And some... are missing the king...

Demiurge is led deeper and deeper into the castle, soon led to a big room with several guards armed with armored plating over vital parts with chainlinks connecting them together. This room is a throne room, bluish marble in the floor interspersed with stone, and a series of fancy-looking thrones of a similar color out front, behind it being a mural showing the Dragon, wings spread to wrap up the world. Two of the thrones are filled by those seen in the paintings, a ferret woman, and a ferret girl.

Demiurge steps before the two of them, and they nod, greeting him. The older ferret greets him, saying that they're grateful to see he's awake. Demiurge thanks them for pulling him in, and he asks where he is. The older ferret explains that he's in the kingdom of '''Egea'''. She is the queen of the land, '''Aslia'''. Her daughter here is '''Princess Moota'''. Moota bows in affirmation. Aslia says that the servants explained he was injured in an encounter with Aunqiller. She was wondering if he could talk to her a little about what goes on in the land of Decka.

Demiurge says that it's awful. The kingdom is built like an army instead of as a home for the people within. Its ruler has a terrifying aura and even more horrible strength. And she's brought prisoners in to do things he didn't even figure out she'd do. And she wanted him to join her as an ally. Aslia remarks that it sounds like she's just as terrible as many fear. Her kingdom's had a few refugees from them, but they'd stopped coming in a few weeks ago. The refugees had told them a little about what'd gone on in Decka, but it seemed she kept a lot of them in the dark on what went on in the castle itself.

Demiurge asks what they're going to do about her, to which Aslia asks what he means. Demiurge says that she's causing terror and mayhem and slowly exhausting the will of her people. She should be stopped. Moota speaks up, saying that they can't just stop them. They have among the mightiest firepower in the world. Her forces have invaded in the past, and it took practically all of their forces to stop them. And there's no way a direct assault could defeat her. At that, Demiurge asks what they should do, to which Aslia says that right now, they don't have much choice. The various kingdoms are too scared to try and oppose her, so attempts at alignment don't work out. And even if they did, there's no telling how much power she has in her walls. 

Asalia supposes their best bet is to try and wait for some opening in their defenses. In the meantime, she hopes that he can enjoy their city. With that, Demiurge is allowed a moment to step into the castle town and hopefully relax and maybe ignore the billowing terror close by.
----
Demiurge steps out of the castle, and first finds himself on a flight of stairs that goes on for several stories, stretching from the front gates of the castle down to the courtyard, the castle resting upon a tall wall, a waterfall coming from the space between the top of the wall and the bottom of the castle. The staircase also had a pair of thick guard rails on either side of it, fortunately making it safer to go down. Demiurge went down more and  more, soon making it to the courtyard. Said courtyard features a lot of the coloration of the castle itself, but also boasts a fountain out front, a sprawling garden that stretches throughout the square space inside and under the staircase, and stone passages for people to take. 

Demiurge follows the path, and gets towards an iron barred gate with guards stationed around either side of it. The guards open the gate up for him, and Demiurge steps through. He ends up in an area with clean white buildings within the walls of the kingdom. A lot of the buildings have some graffiti on them, and many more appear to've been recently cleaned/painted over. It seems similarly divided into districts like others, while also featuring running channels of water through the area. And from his current location, Demiurge can notice that on the wall surrounding the city, there's some shielded barriers sprinkled periodically along the wall with big bells in them.

During this time, Demiurge is tasked with going around the area. He can find the usual shops, groups of citizens, to talk to, and can generally see how people live in this place.
*Street People - Players will find some animals in rags and lingering on the streets. They say that Egea treats the upper class real well. Those that aren't in the upper class, however, typically have to struggle to make ends meet. Either they're left struggling with housing that demands a lot of payment, or their breadwinners end up drafted into the military. After the recent attack the army took a significant blow, so the Queen's been trying to gather necessary money, manpower, and gear to be ready in case another attack comes in. In the meantime, they're left to the mercy of the businesses.
*Shopkeepers - Apparently, the shopkeepers are having to limit a lot of stocks now that Egea's getting more and more scared of the kingdom to the east. Weapons and medicine are being sold sparingly to common people, and if someone can prove they're a part of the guard, they have more leniency with that. Making things harder is that a lot of other kingdoms are trying not to make enemies out of Decka, so they tend to take a more neutral position. As such, they haven't received imports in a long time. And worse still, they can't afford to export many items, so they have trouble making relations at the moment.
*Upper Class - Those in the bigger and more well off buildings explain that they wish they could live more easily. The draft applies to plenty of people, as have the price changes. A lot of them more owe their lot in life to being well off before the attack of the Supers. And right now, they're hoping that there's no need for more drafting. Other than that, they're trying to indulge in what's going on within their walls and hopefully to cool down while everyone else takes care of the opposing forces.
*Anti-Dragon - There's a significant portion of the society that appears outright hostile towards Demiurge. They declare that the Dragon's the reason this all happened in the first place. Ages ago he's worked alongside Hosha and Decka while tearing down the rest of the kingdoms. Isalma and Hertsi fell to them, and now the mountain near the middle of the landmass has been practically shaved down into plains once they got their hands on it. And now because of them, Decka is going to take over the world and rule over everyone with an iron fist!

Players get the above information by extrapolating info from various npcs. Players can also turn in early by returning to the castle itself. Returning, the guards out front say that Demiurge's room is set up. He's free to turn in whenever he wishes.
----
Night comes, and Demiurge is brought to the room he was in before. He steps in, though the princess comes in. Moota asks if he's happy with the kingdom, to which players can answer "Yes" or "No". Either way, she says that things aren't great right now. They're still in a recovery period, and still very afraid. She's sorry about the people that don't like him. At that, Demiurge asks if the court thinks the same way of him. The ferret says that she believes that a lot of people had a hand in the modern world. She's not sure what exactly went down between him and them, but she's sure she can lay more blame on Decka and Hosha. 

And who knows? Maybe a Dragon will be what's needed to stop them. She asks if he is indeed going against her, to which Demiurge replies that he very well can't let her keep doing this. At that, Moota declares that that's enough reason for her to like him. She wishes him a good night, and Demiurge wishes her one too. With that, Demiurge is left to sleep in the room.

;Novi 4th

On this day, Demiurge wakes up, and is brought to the throne room yet again. There, the queen sees Demiurge, and tells him that they hear a section of their guards are being cooped up by powerful animals a fair distance away. She can't send her guards, she needs to keep them here in case there's an assault. Demiurge says that if she so wishes, he can go find them. The princess then speaks up, saying that she wants to help him too. Aslia says that she can't risk losing her too. The younger ferret, however, says that she's strong enough to take care of a few ferals. And if any soldiers try to take her down, Demiurge can fly her away.

Aslia says that if she doesn't return... The older ferret sighs, and asks Demiurge to keep a close eye on her. Demiurge nods, and is then led to the gate he'd fallen asleep at way back. He sits there and waits, when Moota speaks up, saying she's ready. Demiurge looks towards her, now dressed in armor instead of her dress. Said armor has plating around the limbs and vitals, while chainlink covers up the majority of it and a pink cloak around her back and shoulders. She's also seen sheathed and strapped to her back a sword that looks as big as she is. Demiurge says he's looking forwards to her ability, and the duo steps out through the gate.
----
The duo steps out, and Moota explains that the missing guards were towards the East. She says that they should only go as far as the border, else risk incurring Decka's smiting. The duo goes forwards, following along the trail. Eventually, they make it to a part of the trail where they can hear the growling of ferals. The duo follows the noise, where they see a pair of big, feral bears near the mouth of a cave. And looking past them, they can see guards aligned with Egea. Moota says that this is them, they have to hurry! She thusly draws her massive sword and aims it forwards, and swiftly rushes the enemies. Demiurge follows, and thus, players are forced into battle against the duo of feral bears.

During this, players learn about Moota's general playstyle. She can be described as a paladin: a bit of a tank with some lesser healing magic. Hers is lower level in comparison to most at this level, but is still helpful. She also has access to defense buffs, Light magic, and Piercing Light, a Light magic attack that scales with Strength instead of Magic. With her, players should be able to overwhelm the enemies, swiftly able to take them down with her great sword swings. The ferals are forced to flee, and Moota sighs as she sheathes her giant sword. 

The guards come out and Moota approaches, asking if they're alright. Several of the guards remark that it's one thing seeing her train, but actually taking a blade to opposing enemies! She thanks them for the praise, though asks how they ended up here scared off by a bunch of bears? They say that they'd come from Decka, where they were sent on reconnaissance. They got what they felt would be important information, and thusly fled in a hurry, where they got the bears' attention and got cornered. Moota asks if they really do have important information, to which they reply that they do. Moota declares that they have to race back to the castle walls and keep this information safe!

With that, Demiurge and crew rush back to Egea.
----
The group makes it back to the castle with the various guards. As they do, Demiurge asks Moota why the guards get so close to the villainous kingdom despite being so scared of it. Moota answers that as terrifying as they are, they cannot break their defense. They've thus taken it on themselves to block Decka in case she tries anything. Demiurge supposes that makes sense. Either way, they make it to the castle gates, and they get in. They walk and walk, and soon make it to the throne room, the guards kneeling while the princess breaks from the group to reach the thrones. 

Moota tells Aslia that these guards come with important information. The queen thus asks them what they've learned, to which the guards answered that they've watched them from afar. They were able to see them developing new gear. One in which appears to be some sort of heavily armored mobile cannon. Aslia asks what they mean, to which they describe something akin to a mobile vault moving around and aiming a cannon-shaped hose before blasting out attacks. They've also seen it able to launch magical bolts, presumably from someone inside. Aslia says that's not good. 

They've struggled against normal forces, but an actual weapon of that description... She says that if Aunqiller creates that weapon, she'll likely pierce their defense. However, an outright offense will not be useful on their part. She says that she'll have to mull over their current options. She thanks the guards for their assistance, and dismisses them. With that, the guards spread away, while Demiurge, Moota, and Aslia are left there to consider this new info. Moota asks what they should do, to which Aslia says that their guards will likely be torn up if that thing approaches them. The walls should prevent an upfront magic attack, but she'd much rather not gamble their last line of defense preventing that.

If they're to prevent a potential attack, she feels that they should first and foremost prepare more walls. Though to do that, they'll need more hands, more than their own kingdom can provide. Moota says that other kingdoms aren't willing to stand up to her, to which she replies she knows. She just doesn't know how they're going to defeat a weapon of that description. For now, though, they don't have much to go on, unfortunately. So, she says that she'll send out messages to see if someone is willing to lend some hand. In the meantime, she suggests they try and calm down.

;Novi 5th - Novi 7th

During this period, players are allowed free time. Players are allowed to explore the area around Egea, and are dissuaded from getting anywhere near Decka. This involves sidequests and grinding and hanging out with Moota.

;Novi 8th

This next day, Aslia calls Demiurge and Moota to her quarters. There, she says that she's sent out requests to a nearby kingdom, '''Phonton'''. They may not be willing to oppose her directly, but they recognize that an assault upon them could be disastrous for other kingdoms, so they're willing to set up barriers. Demiurge says that that's great! Aslia says that first they need to bring them here, to which Moota says that Demiurge might be able to help there. He seems big enough to have a bunch of people on his back and fly. Demiurge looks at himself, and supposes that he might be able to.

Aslia says that the sooner they can get those barriers up, the better. First, fly over to Phonton to get the staff they've been allotted, then bring them here, then follow their instructions. Demiurge nods, and says that he's willing to help out in Egea's defense. Aslia nods, and wishes them luck in their journey.

;Novi 8th - Novi 15th

With this, players are tasked with preparing the barricades between Egea and Decka. Here, players are prompted to first go northwards towards the kingdom of Phonton. Players can either go on foot over there, or they can take flight and go across. The destination is over towards the mountain range that once stood tall, and the base of Hertsi's power. However, arriving there today shows the mountain range shaven down several hundred feet while the kingdom itself appears stripped of its metals and a whole lot more decrepit than before. This is the kingdom of '''Phonton'''.

Demiurge and Moota stop in front of the gate and approach. There, guards find them, and wave them onwards. They're lead through, and find much of the commons is in a very depressed state as the majority of people are in ratty houses or on the street. They soon reach the castle, which seems very familiar to how Demiurge saw it 500 years ago. Inside the front, they find several under-armored men with various tool kits. They see the duo, and greet him. One of the men approach, and say that they're the labor force, here to respond to Egea's request. Moota seems ready to thank them and move on, though Demiurge asks what's going on with this kingdom. 

The labor man is confused at first, though comes to realize what Demiurge is referring to. He says that after Vivalia and her gang busted up Hosha, Decka went into overtime to try and make up for lost resources. So, they robbed Hertsi dry of its resources, else face destruction. With their claim to fame taken down, business ran dry. The loan and slavery business came crashing down, and the royals themselves were deposed in the process of claiming the material. Many preferred to leave and settle down in Decka and Decka-aligned kingdoms. Another section, however, moved in to take the ghost kingdom for themselves, and now they stand, trying to fix up the cracks and holes that Decka left behind. 

Demiurge is quiet at that, and the labor man asks if he's ok. Demiurge can then say "I never liked Hertsi, but still..." or "Poor Hertsi..." Either way, the labor man says the past is the past. For now, Egea needs help, yes? With that, Demiurge will be used to fly the various members of the force from Phonton to Egea.
----
Soon, the crew is brought to the trail between Egea and Decka. There, one of the labor men nears the duo and says that they've analyzed the terrain. It looks like the only logical path for the weapon they describe is the main trail. Otherwise there's rough terrain and hills for it to contend with. So, they'll have to develop their barricades along the trail. Moota asks him them if they have the material they think should slow it down. The labor man says that they have plenty of material, but they need time to create this trail. 

They'll work on their barricades. In the meantime, they hope that they'll be able to keep any potential damaging forces from them. Moota says that Aslia wishes to conserve her soldiers' ability, so their powerset will be limited to this small group. At that, the labor man says that if that's the case, they'll be willing to provide one of their forces to help out. So, he turns to the crowd and calls for a '''Toni'''. With that, a slender bobcat man comes forwards, wearing a gray tunic and wielding a mallet. He greets them and says that a lot of his friends are out here, and he hopes that they'll keep them safe. Demiurge assures that they will. The bobcat thus joins their party. 

With the new guy, the party is tasked with going out to the field, where Moota says that they should look for groups of enemies nearby and clear them out. If they're within a certain distance of the trail, they run the risk of interfering with construction. So, the player must reach certain parts of the map to deal with groups of enemies. In the process, they'll learn about Toni's general playstyle. He has access to Earth magic, though is primarily a buffer. He applies buffs to the various stats in battle. A very simple character, but good for support. 

There are clusters of enemies to contend with, with two big feral creature groups in one end, and a few Decka soldiers that've overstepped on their territory. And as they fight, the players get to learn a bit about the party members.
*After clearing the first group, Moota sheathes her giant sword, saying that they're doing alright so far. She tells Toni she's sorry he had to get involved, he doesn't seem like much of a fighter. Toni, however, says that a part of him's kind of wanted to actually lend a hand in a fight. She asks why that is, to which he says that Decka's already done a lot of damage, and Aunqiller sounds like she'll make things even worse. He understands that he himself isn't too well built for a fight, but he doesn't exactly want to sit around and wait for her to win. So, he's perfectly fine with building the rest of them up. Moota says that it's nice to see someone willing to fight for the good.
*After clearing the second group, they sheathe their weapons, and Toni says that it's not usually that royals go out into the field. So, he asks what's got her out and about. She answers that Egea's worked differently for a while, including with her mother and father. When they had to defend against the super soldiers, those two went out to help. However, after he was... felled... her mom hasn't taken up the sword in a while. She's felt more and more scared within these walls, just waiting, and she supposes it's nice to go out and... vent. Toni says he's sorry about her dad, to which she says she's had time to push back it anyways.
*And taking care of the third group, they sheathe their weaponry, and Demiurge seems ready to head off. However, Moota and Toni speak up, trying to get his attention. Toni says that they've talked a fair amount during this trip, but they haven't really heard much from Demiurge himself. Demiurge asks what they'd like him to talk about, to which the bobcat supposes he'd like to hear about how he's feeling about all of this or why he's fighting. At that, Demiurge says that truth is, he's not terribly happy with the world right now. When he last slept, his heart was stolen, and since then his killers had grown more powerful. Moota then asks if he's facing them because he's mad? If he is, there's no problem, anger can be as much a motivator as anything else. At this, players can answer "I'm fighting for me" or "I'm fighting for the world". Either way, Moota says that Aunqiller's threat shall be quelled.

Following the defeat of each of them, Moota says that the big players seem to've been cleared from the field. She thanks Toni for his assistance, and the bobcat assures that it's nothing. They're here to stop that queen's attack, there's no way they should ignore the chance. However, as they talk, Demiurge hears something and turns towards the Decka trail, where he can see some powerful-looking soldier going along it. Demiurge points it out, and the princess and labor man turn. They see the soldier, and Toni asks what she's sending one of the supers out for! Moota says they probably attracted some attention when they were fighting off the enemies. Moota says that if they leave that soldier alone, it could come upon the barricade! They have to take care of it, now!
----
The party approaches the road, where they can see a muscular, green snake man slithering forwards, veins bulging. He's also wearing Decka armor and has a glaive strapped to his back. The party steps before him to cut him off, preventing his approach. The snake looks upon them, and starts saying that he's here on business, and they're in his way. However, he notices two of the people that stand before him: the Dragon and the princess. He asks what the two of them are doing out on the field, to which Moota says that they're here to stop Aunqiller and her plans. 

The snake shrugs and draws his glaive. He says that he was to take care of some soldiers supposedly reported in the area, but if he's dragging back figures as important as this, he's sure her divinity will be happy. With that, the party draws their weapons, and go into battle with '''Seige Soldier: 102'''. The snake proves to be pretty troublesome. He starts with a multi-target poison strike that, unless rng is in your favor, will likely poison each party member. He tends to keep up his personal evasive ability, using multi-targeting slash skills, and can use a multi-hitting slash skill to really wail into a foe. It's a battle of attrition as, be it through attack or through poison, he's constantly ebbing away at the party's health. Fortunately, players can use this to their advantage and use items to get rid of poison in order to force him to use a turn to reapply poison. Through careful work, players should be able to defeat him. 

The snake stumbles back, falling onto his back and his glaive clattering to the side. He pants and pants and glares towards the party. He says that he can't go back empty handed, he can't go back a loser. At that, Moota brings up her sword and points it towards his chest, declaring that she can arrange that. The Seige Solder grits his teeth... before an electrical rod from his wrist. He declares that he will destroy them, and then swings the rod towards him, actually managing to pierce his chest. His teeth grit as a buzz of electricity courses through him, his eyes bugging. He draws the rod out and it withdraws. He huffs and puffs, and the blood is surging through him. His muscles pump up and his eyes seem to bulge out unnaturally, him standing upright. Toni asks what's going on, to which Moota says she doesn't know. Demiurge says that he's making his heart beat faster and putting that blood through him faster and faster. But that should just mean that he'll empty his reserves faster! The Siege Soldier declares that he'll die either way, so he'll tear them down with him!

With that, players are thrust into a battle with the '''Pure Seige Soldier: 102'''. And here, he nixes his poison skill. Instead, he wields a single-target Pure magic skill, it doing a hefty amount of damage, especially considering that players can't block/resist/absorb it. In addition to that, he utilizes multi-target slashing, smash skills, and will buff up his attack instead of his evasion. Players will need to work towards limiting the amount of damage he can do while wearing down his health. After bringing him down to 20% health, the foe will deploy Quake, a Pure magic skill that deals hefty damage to multiple targets. Once players power through that, they should be able to take care of the enemy.

The snake is blown back, crumbled into a heap. He groans and tries to crawl after them, hissing as he tries to crawl at them. He pants and pants, and says he has to kill them. He gets weaker and weaker as he crawls, trying to reach towards the party, each pulling back while bringing their weapons up defensively. They keep their distance, and as he reaches towards them desperately, a pop is heard, Pure blood explodes out of the crack his electrical rod left, and the color drains from his face. He collapses, dead. The party pants and pants, putting their weapons away.

Toni asks what happened, to which Moota says that Decka's experimented in applying the Dragon's blood to soldiers, hence the supers. The blood's had its drawbacks and benefits, but this effect is new. Toni remarks that using someone's blood like that... He asks Demiurge if he's alright. The Dragon is quiet, and at that, Toni supposes that that was already obvious. Moota says they should bring this up with the rest of the military. In the meantime, the construction should be safe for now. She says they've done well.
----
With that, Moota breaking off that night to spread her news. Following that, players have free time for the rest of the period until the deadline.

;Novi 16th

On this day, the party meets back up in the royal chambers, where the queen stands alongside a lemur woman in less armor, but with metals over her chest. Asalia says that this is the general of their army, '''Misferri'''. She's helped with the organization of their troops, and she's told her about the information the three of them have come across. The lemur says that it's quite the shock, the news provided. She says that such information would run counter to the nature of supers, in that increasing the blood flow would likely shorten their lifespan. 

She asks what could've led to this, to which Toni says that the soldier said he'd take them down with him, at which Misferri concludes it's seemingly a last ditch effort. She says that if more of the supers were to pull off an attack like that, then they'd likely see much bloodshed in oncoming battles. Asalia then ponders what could've led to Aunqiller coming to this conclusion. Moota says she isn't sure, but that she knows what she saw, and that that snake went through the motions with a clear plan in mind. It clearly wasn't something thought up in the heat of the moment. 

Misferri stroked her chin curious. She says that Aunqiller's likely developed many different plans after the previous war. She thinks their best bet right now, while the barricades are being developed, is to find out any information about these supers that could possibly be available. Decka's well guarded, so, coming soon, they shall investigate the ruins of Hosha. 
===Midway===
;Novi 17th

On this day, the party wakes up and head to the front gate. There, they see Misferri again. The lemur says that she wishes to join them on their quest. Toni asks if they'll be ok heading off to Hosha, to which she replies that the ruins have been abandoned for 500 years, raided a long time ago. By now, there should only be mere raiders there. Realistically, they can only hope they're lucky enough to find something useful out there. She thusly takes up a rifle and places it on a sheathe on her back. She says that they should be careful anyways.
----
Players are thusly made to fly out of Egea and go to the usual location of Hosha. Flying down there, players uncover one sight: What used to be the initial grounds of the kingdom system, what's grown into a powerful structure in its ages, what's killed Demiurge twice now, its many buildings and walls are torn apart. It looks as if a bomb had ravaged the streets as webs of cracks cover the majority of it and its tallest buildings have crumbled down to a few stories tall. Demiurge himself finds himself only able to look upon it from a distance. 

She says that they'll have to touch down. Demiurge thusly goes down and lands outside the ruins. They thusly make their way into the rubble, taking care to walk around the cracks. They step further in, soon reaching the center. And there, they can see the skeleton of a certain bat, said skeleton riddled with what looks like hundred of arrows, crossbow bolts, arrows, and spears. Demiurge actually looks sort of like he's going to throw up, though Moota tries to cool her down by rubbing his back a little. The party presses on and towards the castle, where Misferri says that this'll be their best bet for finding out any information on the supers. 

They make their way in. However, as they ead in, they can hear some noises in. They try to sneak around and head deeper in, where they uncover the sight of a few bat bandits skulking the painting-less, ornament-less halls for something to pawn off. The party looks on, only to be surprised by a shout from behind. Turning, they see another bandit, who says that this is their loot! No kingdom grunts are gonna take it! Misferri thusly says that they have to defend themselves. With that, they bring up their weapons, ready to fight.

They hold their weapons, and in this, players learn about Misferri herself. She wields a rifle, with which she deals stab damage when she attacks someone. In addition to that, she wields Electrical magic to deal the appropriate damage, and also wields various debuffs and stabbing skills that have a chance of dealing debuffs. With these, she'll be able to buffet enemies and leave them open to attacks from the party. With enough work, they should be able to defeat the bandits. And with them down, Misferri warns that there might be more to deal with in here, and warns the party to be careul as they progress. They're looking for information on the super soldiers.
----
They make their way through much of the halls, facing more bandits and whatnot. During it, players will notice the structure is different from way back when. As they progress more and more, they soon make it to the throne room. At this point, Toni says that he swears they've searched every inch of this castle and haven't found anything that hasn't been plucked clean. Moota says that they can't have gone to this with nothing to show. They have to keep looking. However, at this point, Toni glances towards the two thrones. He approaches it, and says that the thrones in this era are typically set higher from the ground than usual.

He investigates around it and fiddles with the back, where he notices some weird panels. He fiddles with them, and the throne lifts a little. He tries lifting it more, the party joining in to help him out. They pull the throne out and set it aside, uncovering a trap door under it. Moota remarks that it looks dusty around here, probably not tampered with in a little while. Misferri says they've exhausted everything else, so they should deal with this. With that, the party crawls in. 

The party makes it down into the dank halls of something hidden in the castle. They progress deeper in, Toni commenting on the architecture. He says that it looks like this part of the castle had to've been hollowed out several decades after the destruction of the landscape.. They progress, and after going through some stairs, and end up down a hall with several doors lining it and an almost chemically clean smell. Progressing in, they uncover an office with what looks like some tape-playing device on it. Demiurge looks over it curiously and asks what it is, though Moota says that some kingdoms have developed technology to record and play audio. This one must've been a secret project before the technology became more public. They search the office, and uncover one tape, which they put in the device.

Misferri suggests they walk and listen. They exit the office, and as they do, the tape plays, giving a date indicating that this happened 480 years ago. The voice on the tape introduces themselves as '''Doctor Hashiba'''. They explain that ever since Vivalia went on her destructive rampage, their scientists have decided to hold off on any projects until there are no signs of the rebellious sorts. And to make things more certain, Decka decided that they're better off either immobilizing or killing the supers. Once they took care of each of them, they've been tasked with heading out here and establishing their test sight, just in case experiments in Decka prove harmful. She then states that the heart and several documents on Pure soldiers have been recovered, though right now they're developing a means to restore the heart. They sign off, and the party makes it down another set of stairs. 

Down there, they see another set of office doors to the side, as well as some bar doors along the hall. They investigate the office, find another tape, and start playing. Here, another voice comes on introducing themselves as '''Doctor Ixa''', giving a date indicating that this happened 426 years ago. The doctor explains that they've had many healers on standby for the heart, and after much experimentation, they've got it into such a position that it's now producing blood. Plenty more time's been spent finding an appropriate canister for containing it safely. But now, they have it in an environment that they can keep it sustaining long enough, and the magical solution to restore it. They've thusly began drawing from it to create more Pure soldiers. They will be trained and fashioned into proper children of Decka. The tape ends, and the party goes down more stairs. 

And down here, they see more office doors and more bar doors. They find another tape, and play it. It gives another name, introducing themselves as '''Doctor Hosian'''. The date the doctor gives indicates this happened 390 years ago. The doctor says that project '''The Dragon Hearted''' has begun its work. The Pure soldiers of old have been fascinating works, but their longevity has always been a sorespot. So, they're now looking into ways to increase that, and they've thusly settled on providing the heart directly to a worthy candidate. This's involved creating an artifical vein network, and finding someone to surgically insert the veins into. They've thusly gathered chosen ones from the city and brought them here. Results have been... unfortunate. The doctor then asks "Have you ever somebody pop? I have."

Down, they find another floor that's the same. And uncovering the next tape, the doctor introduces themselves as '''Doctor Boust''', dating it 300 years ago, and explains that they're trying to make progress in The Dragon Hearted, and have thus far come to a few conclusions. One, they need to be more sparing of their progress in this. Attempts at applying the heart to a subject has required it be healed, which's harmed healers. They need to find a good material to protect the heart and the artifical veins. Second, they need subjects big enough to contain the heart, and to control how much blood it provides. Thus, they're working on means to establish a more concrete vein system, and to establish a regimen to get subects prepared.

Down another floor, they come upon another of the same. The tape is portrayed by '''Doctor Isali''', dating it 234 years ago. They explain that they've finally been able to establish the proper body size for the heart. And now, a proper armor for the heart is established. Problem is making sure that they control the blood flow more properly, and that those that have it can take it. Bodies thus far are suffering either too much blood, too little blood, or outright being burned from the inside out. They've thusly decided they need to breed the Dragon Hearted. They make it to the next floor, even further uncomfortable with the various things they've learned.

They make it to the deepest floor, whereupon they find a floor reeking of its chemical cleanliness, and also find multiple operating tables on them with various diagrams, showing individuals of varying sizes were brought in, and the aftermath. Among which includes multiple accounts of people from children to middle aged being reduced to bloody pulps from the experiments. There isn't gore here, though the blueprints around tell plenty of a picture. They walk more and more, when Moota speaks up, attracting the party towards one of the tables. And there, they see a blueprint brandishing a certain bear, born in the lab, worked into the most muscular body possible, and in the end, bearing the armor of her divinity herself. There's another tape by it. And playing it, the tape is read by '''Doctor Kresha''', dated 60 years ago. This voice simply explains that the project is finished. Decades have been made to hone the perfect weapon, and they've succeeded. Only thing is, the weapon's decided it wants to be in charge. No one could stop them.

And with that, the party present are stunned into silence, only looking on in discomfort as they look over what the wielders of the Dragon's heart has brought on. Demiurge tells the group to get what they need, they're not coming back.
----
The party leaves, Toni, Misferri, and Moota stepping out with plenty of documents. Moota asks where Demiurge is, before the three turn and see the Dragon hovering above. The Dragon rears his head back, magic flowing up his throat, and he fires down, striking the castle and causing it to collapse further, leaving no sign of its former self. No lab, no halls, nothing. Hosha is now a pile of stones.

;Novi 18th

The next day comes, and Moota finds Demiurge himself very awake. The ferret asks him if he's struggling to sleep. Demiurge nods weakly. She comes to his side and sits by it. She says that she knows there're a lot of people that'll blame him, but she's always felt it more appropriate to blame the wielder over the weapon. A bunch of guys did bad things with his heart while his body was far, far away. Demiurge says that he knows that, but if he hadn't gone with Hosha... if he hadn't been here in the first place, his blood would've never ended up in anyone's hands. 

Moota grimaced at that, and gave pause. She supposes that if he weren't here, there'd be a lot of things different. She probably wouldn't live in a castle. His daughter probably wouldn't have existed. Maris probably wouldn't have had the kingdom he had... Heck, Rugar probably would've been left alone with the Monsters way back when. There's a lot of what ifs, and there's a lot of what if nots. She herself probably wouldn't be as great a fighter as she is if it weren't for what happened to her father. Though she misses him, she does think she's over all more equipped for repelling that queen. 

She says that a lot of them owe him a lot, to be honest. And she's sorry that the world's rewarded him this way. Demiurge takes in a deep breath and says that he's glad someone said so. He apologizes if he sounds selfish, but she assures that with what he's probably been through, a bit of self indulgence is warranted. She says that they'll fix this, that Aunqiller will be knocked down and they will be allowed to prosper. Demiurge thanks her.
----
;Novi 18th - Novi 21st

Misferri says that her and her team is going over the documents they've acquired and are trying to discern whatever they have to learn about the blood and about what their soldiers are capable of. In the meantime, the party should stay prepared. That means it's time for freetime. Grinding, sidequests, boosting social links, it's free gain for these four days.

;Novi 22nd

The day comes up. And as it comes up, guards approach the party. They explain that more refugees have been spotted escaping Decka, and are heading this way. Moota remarks that it's been a long time since more have appeared. She says that if this is the case, they need to get them fast. The guards declare that they will move out to them pronto. With that, they head out, and Toni remarks that he heard Aunqiller's been increasing the border security as of late. Misferri says that that's true. She thinks that they should question them about openings in the kingdom. 

Moota says that this'll be the break they need. They'll uncover an opening, abuse that, and use the information they've garnered to take them down. Demiurge says that it will be really tough, the castle's material is resistant towards his draconian magic. Moota understands that, though says that once they get in, they can devestate Aunqiller's army and leave her possibly vulnerable to other attacks. And while they're at it, they can bring out more under that bear's thumb. Demiurge then says, excitedly, that they need to go get those reugees. 
----
Time comes, and the guards returning, bringing with them several poor, unfortunate guys covered in dirt and soot and wearing rags. The party approaches them, looking over the many saddened people. Many middle aged, many children among them, and they see the royal and approach. A fox lady says that Aunqiller's gotten worse since she'd clashed with Egea before. She asks why they hadn't just let her through. Moota grimaces at that, though says that she wasn't involved in the decision. For now, they are on the path to defeating her. 

The fox turns away and is led into Egea. Demiurge asks Moota if she's alright, to which she explains that Aunqiller's willing to hurt anything she can. And, frankly, if the way she's probably raised is any indication, she's not sure she can blame her. Demiurge looks over the many unfortuante refugees as they're led in. Toni asks if they're really ok with them being so rude after being saved, to which Misferri says that they too were victims, and directly within her walls to. They'll have to find them housing and have to assure them that they can trust them. 

Moota says that that's right. Their kingdom will be one to welcome them, and will wipe away the darkness brought on by Aunqiller.

;Novi 22nd - 24th

With that, players are treated to brief snippets of the party members organizing housing and giving the various refugees aid. The various members are placed in various buildings in the housing district.

After that, the party is back in the castle, each looking haggered and sweaty. Demiurge says that that took a lot, but he thinks that everyone's housed and given new clothes. Moota then asks Misferri how all of the new guys are handling, to which Misferri explains that the guards have gathered information on them. She says that they went through a sewer system and in their direction. She'd also learn that the vast majority of them lacked a lot of basic education. Moota asks what she means by that, to which she explains they lack reading and writing skills, as well as some mathematics. 

Moota supposes this is similar to some of the other refugees. She says that they should be let through the usual channels asap. Misferri nods and says that she'll organize it. She thus leaves the group, and Moota regards the info they got: through the sewer system. She says that that almost sounds too easy. In fact, she swears that a few sharpeyed guards examined that and saw guards around it. Were they perhaps familiar with the guards' routine and used it to get out? Demiurge says he's not sure. Moota says whatever the case, they have to take care of these people. 

With that, the party goes to rest. Though as they do, the gecko from Aunqiller's side can be seen near the wall, her motioning a pair of lithe guards beside her. She points towards the wall around Egea, and the various guards nod, before approaching, flashing dangerous-looking daggers as they look over the Egean guards on top of the wall.

;Novi 25th - Novi 27th

Players are given some free time during this period.

;Novi 28th

The next day comes, and it seems unassuming enough, though on this, Moota can be seen corroborating with Misferri about some of the education going on. The lemur explains that many of the refugees seem to be taking to the new teaching well, though there are just as many that're sort of faltering. She suspects it'll take at most a month before the adults are in average condition. Demiurge asks how things are, to which Moota says she's just reviewing the situation with the refugees. Demiurge says that that's unfortunate, but he hopes to see them well soon. And as they talk, the guards on the walls are seen looming over, undetected.

...

Then night comes, the various characters doing their things. Meanwhile, the guards are near the edge of the wall at their respective points. Said guards can be seen with devices similar to the tape players the player used, except they feature a larger speaker. They hold them close to the walls, pointing inside the kingdom, and then sign a signal at each other, ready to synchronize the attack. With that, they press the play button. Then, the kingdom is filled with a tune; one long low note, one long high note. It repeats in a steady fashion. And at that, scenes cut to show the various refugees that'd just arrived freezing up, an odd look in their eyes.

Meanwhile, the party, plus Aslia, steps out confused. Aslia asks what that noise is, to which Misferri says she has no idea, there's nothing about this in their information. Toni looks out, and spies a couple sitting on a bench in the main street of the kingdom. One of the refugees can be seen approaching them. Then, the refugee suddenly brandishes a knife, and lunges at the couple, them wailing as they're tackled down and stabbed out of the blue. Toni gasps in alarm and points, prompting Moota to rush forwards with her sword. Suddenly, players are forced into a brief battle with the '''Manic Refugee''', an uncomfortably simple fight. 

The party looks over the dead refugee. Moota asks where the hell that came from, to which Misferri wonders whether this was just a random act of violence here, or if this refugee had it out for them. However, Toni's ears perk up. He says he hears more fights. The party's confused, and the player's prompted to approach one of the noises of the sounds. They approach an alley branching off of the main road, where they're horrified to find a bunch of refugees had dragged someone off the street in there, and mercilessly beat on them, despite them looking dead now. 

Moota looks about ready to throw up, and they pull away. Toni says that he hears more of those noises. Misferri says that she'll organize the guards, pronto.

...

Later, the guards report back to the party. They say that they've dispatched their forces to round up the refugees. Though they say that they've attempted to strike their men down, and have actually slain a small few of them. They actually hear that they're struggling to contain some of the manics. Moota says that this doesn't make sense. Were these refugees organizing an attack? Toni looks up, and says that the noise probably has something to do with it. Misferri ponders if this is supposed to be some sort of hypnotic trigger. 

Demiurge asks when those noisemakers were even installed. Asalia says it doesn't matter right now. She'll try to organize the chaos down here before more lives are taken. The lot of them need to go up there and dispose of the noisemakers! If that is indeed the trigger, this should prevent the attack! With that, Demiurge says he'll fly them up to the wall when everybody's ready.
----
The party flies up and makes it to the ridge, sitting upon there. Up there, they look down, and can hear the sounds of combat below, manic, animalistic shouts and screams of horror fill the kingdom. Misferri looks down through her sights, and can see the violence, from random citizens being haphazardly beaten/killed, to a few guards being killed, to a few guards striking the manic refugees down. She says that the situation is looking really bad, and says that they need to act fast! Toni looks around, and comments that a lot of the guards he sees up here are in Decka armor. Moota asks how they got here, to which Misferri says that they must've been behind this attack! She says they need to act fast and destroy these machines! 

With that, players are required to go around the wall, from location to location. This requires them to go around the various locations, having to contend with various guards stationed up here. At the locations with the music players, there will be large groups of guards to contend with, which means that players will have to go through ha brief fight with them, before smashing the respective device. There are six devices to destroy, and once they're all destroyed, the tone playing in the kingdom is silent, and the violence in the street gets quiet. 

The party gets down, and Aslia is seen waiting for them on the stairs up to the castle. She says that the fighting seemed to stop after that music shut off. Toni says that that's great news. He then asks how everything's looking, to which Asalia gets quiet. She says that a lot of the violence failed to be contained. She says many mentors were found reduced to bloody pulps, and random citizens were killed off. Some of the guards made their choice to strike down the refugees. She says sighs and says that it's going to take a long time to scrub out the scars this night left. 

The party looks out past the gates. Demiurge says that the town smells terrible tonight, and the group can see guards covered in blood approach solemnly. 

;Novi 29th

The next morning comes, and the party is in the throneroom, a heavy air in it. There, Misferri apologizes formally to Asalia, saying that this horror should've never come to pass and that they should've been more diligent. Moota, however, says that it was a royal decree that'd invite any and every refugee, and so she should be apologizing. Asalia, however, dismisses their apologies, saying that this was none of their faults. Between the guards' arrival on the walls and the sudden appearance of the refugees, it seems clear that this was a malicious plan against them. She doesn't doubt that those in Decka purposefully let those refugees leave so they could be picked up here.

That being said, she called this meeting because she fears that this isn't the extent of the plan. Toni asks what she means, to which she explains that how elaborate this plan was combined with the outcome doesn't match. They obviously wouldn't have accepted any entry unless the refugees were sent, so they sent out those afflicted with the hypnotic trigger. Then, the guards snuck in while they were distracted and set up the attack. So, that leaves a few questions: why send actual villagers instead of trained guards in disguise? No doubt about it, they fought geniune commoners last night. Second, why not send actual soldiers in to attack instead of setting up the hypnotic plan? Sure plenty were killed, but their military would be more than a match for that lot. 

Misferri says that these are very odd decisions. She can only imagine it being an assault on their morale. Truth is that many soldiers in the barrack felt disgusted in the previous actions. Asalia then says that if they intend to weaken them with an attack like that, then it probably means they aren't confidant in their own forces. The queen ferret stands up, and declares that for those that were downed in the previous fight, they need to tear down their forces, asap. Moota declares that she'll be more than happy to, Toni saying that they are going to pay! Misferri, meanwhile, strokes her chin curious, wondering if that was the purile reason for this course of attack. 

Either way, Asalia declares that they are going to organize an attack. They are going to approach the front lines and strike down their foes. They've reviewed their documents, and now she feels that they have the knowledge to more carefully approach the supers. Demiurge says after everything, they're finally going to take down Aunqiller. Asalia assures that they will be accompanied by soldiers. She says it'll take a few days to organize an assault, and she wishes they be prepared for that.

;Novi 29th - Demi 1st

Players have freetime during this. Players will be able to interact with characters and shops and the outside, and will get to see the still gore-soaked streets of the city, much to the Dragon's dismay. 

;Demi 2nd

On this day, the party can see several soldiers on their way out, marching. The party is heading down the stairs, though Asalia herself approaches, asking Moota if she really wishes to go out there. Moota says her father died to this, she merely wishes to pick up where she left off. Asalia says that if she ever feels she's in grave danger, to find some way out of the battlefield and back here. Moota says that she'll be ok. She then looks towards Demiurge, saying that this time they have an advantage anyways.

The party continues walking out, Moota looking determined, Toni trying to be stonefaced, Misferri looking a little pensive, while Demiurge looks towards Decka, saying to himsel that he's going to ix a lot of his mistakes.

;Demi 2nd - Demi 8th

On this, players are tasked with going past the barricades they'd previously set up. They head outwards, towards the battlefield. And out there, they can see a war going on. Soldiers of Egea are battling soldiers of Decka, and it looks like there's a long distance between them and the walls of Decka. Misferri looks over the field, and says that it looks like they're currently even. She says it looks like their supers aren't at the frontlines. Toni wonders why that is, to which she replies she doesn't know. Moota says that they won't be able to get close while the war effort is going on. So, she says that they need to damage the enemy frontlines to approach. 

With that, players have their current goal. That requires them to approach certain locations of the frontlines, where they're required to damage soldiers there and push them back. In the meantime, players may encounter foes within the Egea lines. Ultimately, the goal is to push back the lines so that they can approach Decka. The more they fight, the further back they push, soon bringing them closer and closer to the '''Decka Fields'''. 

Misferri warns that they're approaching enemy territory. Things will get harder from here on out. With that, players are tasked with more of the same, damaging the enemy's frontline and getting closer. In the process, there will be some super soldiers sprinkled among the enemy ranks, though thankfully not as dangerous as the boss of the previous chapter. Eventually, the party is close to the gates of Decka. And as they near, Toni says that he has the feeling that things are going to be tougher from here on out. He says that they should make sure they're ready before tackling them.

With that, the party approaches the front lines, nearing the gates. However, as they do, a strange blast of light shines from the distance, cutting them off. They look towards the source, and spy a peacock in armor similar to the style Alst wore. He rears back before leaping up, and slamming down. This is followed up by several explosive arrows striking near where they stood, the firer revealed to be a finch lady in light armor. And this is then followed by a mist covering the field, limiting their sight. And when it clears, they see a pheasant man with a set of needles in his clutches.

Demiurge takes up his stance and says that it looks like Decka's brining out the big guns. Moota, however, says that these aren't Decka. That knight armor migrated to '''Marsha''', the kingdom near the valley. Toni shouts out to them, saying they're here to stop Decka! The peacock, however, explains that they're here to prevent that. Toni asks what he means, to which he explains that Decka's citizens were provided to the nearest kingdom, Egea, and her guards reported that the vast majority of them were slain. And now, a few days before killing Decka's people, they come to attack them directly. The party is confused.

Moota asks if Aunqiller told them that the refugees were offered to them, instead of them escaping her confines. The peacock says that Aunqiller told them that they've spent so long making sure their people were safe from an attack from Egea, they ended up weakening their resources. They were thus forced to send some of their citizens out to be helped, only for them to get killed. She'd reported that they'd suffered a war with this kingdom before and attempted to send out people as some form of extending an olive branch. And seeing all of this happen, the lot of them decide that they can't let this continue!

Moota swears that it isn't what it looks like, but the opposing knights clearly don't believe them. Misferri says that this must be what Aunqiller planned all along, turning them into villains in the eyes of other kingdoms. If they're forced to contend with this group... Misferri declares that they must retreat to their kingdom, stat! But first, the trio before them attempt an assault.

With that, players are forced to battle the trio of '''Moxi''' the peacock, '''Deara''' the finch, and '''Steau''' the pheasant. One thig players should note is that the trio of them primarily wield Stab physical moves as opposed to other. Besides that, the three of them prove to be pretty tough if you aren't careful. Moxi is balanced with a lean towards attack, Deara is the damage dealer, and Steau deals out debuffs and ailments. Steau primarily works towards lowering attack and inflicting blind, while Moxi has the distinction of being able to avoid attacks by triggering his own Jump move. Other than that, players have to contend with potentially the deal of Burn from Deara's fiery arrows or blindness from Moxi's Light magic. There's plenty of ailments to contend with here, but with enough work, players should be able to press through them and defeat the nightly trio.

The trio's down, panting. Toni and Moota declare that they've beaten the enemies, now it's time to make headway into the kingdom! Misferri, however, says that if they're dealing with opponents out here, odds are the kingdom itself is facing problems! She says that they need to go back and make sure it's safe! Moota looks towards the gates and back towards her kingdom, before gritting her teeth. She says that they'll make sure things are ok. And so, they race back. And as they race back, they can see several non-Decka forces attacking their soldiers too, seeming to try and close in on Egea itself. The party is horrified, and Misferri grits her teeth. She declares that there's no way they can maintain their attack on Decka like this! She says she'll pull back her troops so they can keep back the enemies.

Moota and crew are not happy, but they recognize that there's no other option. So like that, they're forced to halt the attack.
----
After this, there's free time, but the fields outside of Decka are threatening. Players should be careful.

;Demi 9th

On this day, the soldiers of Egea can be seen trying to keep the foreign soldiers back, though the latter are pressing towards them, getting closer to the kingdom itself. Marsha troops are joined by Decka, and they combine to perform a hellish assault right upon their kingdom. The party's thusly met up at the throne room with the queen, Asalia with an uncertain look on her face. She says that Aunqiller's unfortunately played them for fools, and now they face what could be a losing war. Toni says that it can't end like this, and Moota says if they fall, Decka will be able to press on! 

Asalia shuts her eyes, and sighs. She says that whatever happens, she fears their own fight is finished. She says that the lot of them have shown brilliant strength. Her own kingdom and her troops don't measure up, she feels. If the kingdom is lost, then the truth is that their party needs to survive. Moota says that they can't lose their home too, but Asalia says that nothing can be helped about it right now. She's already tried to explain the situation to them, but they determine it her merely lying. The best they can do is maintain a defense, but even that is ebbing away. 

She says that she'll try to gather supplies, and soon, they'll have to race out. Misferri, however, says that she's not sure about where they could go. They're very remarkable people and will be left without an army. If Marsha won't strike them down, then surely Decka will follow after them and destroy them. Demiurge, however, speaks up. He says that he knows somewhere that they can go to to make sure the armies won't follow them. He warns that it's weird, but it'll probably help them to hide away and form a plan. 
----
Night approaches, and the soldiers are getting worn down more and more. The many soldiers are pressing in and Egea's losing its edge. Meanwhile, over in the main street, Demiurge can be seen with many people climbing onto his back, the party especially. Demiurge remarks that it's getting heavier and heavier. Eventually, he manages to get many on him, though several others are still trying to climb up. Demiurge apologizes deeply, he says that he can't fit anymore. Asalia speaks up and says that disaster is coming to their kingdom. And should the soldiers fail their defensive, then they are all to do whatever they wish to survive. Even if it means to submit.

Demiurge thus spreads his wings, and lifts into the air, the many people of Egea screaming for him to stay down. Moota and Asalia look down in deep worry, only able to look on as they leave the kingdom. Meanwhile, the many soldiers are soon able to pour past the walls itself as Demiurge and crew are able to escape. Meanwhile, back at Decka, Aunqiller looks on as the war goes on, her gecko nearby. The gecko says that by morning, they'll have claimed Egea. With that, the bear says that they will devestate Marsha's forces. She thusly orders them to prepare an offensive on them, before marching to the valley itself. 

The gecko asks if they wre to move the war machine out, to which Aunqiller explains that they shall wait until Marsha's stamped out of Egea. Once they are, it's time to bring out the weapon. The gecko says that she looks forwards to piloting it.
===Penultimate===
Demiurge flies and flies, rushing over the water as night shines over them. He rushes and rushes, and the various people on his back lookover the sea, almost fearing that they're going nowhere. However, eventually an island amiliar to Demiurge comes into view. He comes in closer and closer, soon lowering down and stepping down on the shore of the island, where one can see the remnants of a long broken dock. Demiurge lowers his wings and lets everyone off, where he says there's a pretty lax civilization up ahead. He says that everyone should cover their kids' eyes before going in. 

Moota asks what he's talking about, and Demiurge is about to say something, however, someone farther up clears their throat. They look ahead, and see a lithe skunk man in a tight body suit, a purple scarf flowing behind him. He says that he was sort of standing there for a while, hoped one of them would notice him. Demiurge asks who he is, to which he explains that he himself is one of the few in the Land of Joy that keeps up his fighting spirit. He calls himself '''Donner'''. 

Asalia greets the skunk, and says that they've been driven away from their own kingdom. Demiurge brought them here to keep them safe. Donner says that Chief Exulta had foreseen the Dragon's re-arrival, and says that she's more than willing to accept newbies as long as they don't mean harm. He says that he'll lead them in, though remarks that it's not exactly like they'd lose their track without him. It's pretty much a straight shot. Either way, the refugees follows behind the skunk, and are lead into the Land of Joy proper. 

They make it in, where a few of the people spy several naked citizens, unnerved. Asalia and Moota both seem concerned at the sights around them, and Donner says that he doesn't currently know the housing situation, but he's sure once Exulta gets in the spirit, she'll be able to help them out. For now, they'll probably have to sit around on the streets. Asalia says that whatever the situation, they can't stay here permanently. Donner asks if they're really considering going back to the Bronze Wave. He says that Exulta warns the end of the world is on them right now, and this island is their only means of riding out the Wave. 

Moota says that that's precisely why they need to go back. There's no way they can let that maniac ruler win. Donner says that he himself isn't the guy to talk to about politics and whatnot, he's just saying what Exulta says. Either way, they'll have to relax on the street right now, and he'll go look for Exulta herself. 

And thus, the group is left to relax on the street, Misferri drawing up a general map of the landscape around Egea while the party looks over it curious. They don't appear to be making a lot of good progress in the planning, and eventually the skunk returns. He answers that Exulta has fallen into an alcohol-induced slumber, so they'll unfortunately have to wait for the morning to converse with her. Those present groan in annoyance, but realize they'll have to sleep on the side of the street.

;Demi 10th

The group wakes up again. Moota says that they're supposed to talk with this Exulta, and Asalia says that she'll hang back and try to organize the information they've gathered so far and prepare an offensive. Thus, the party proper heads in, going to the big temple. There, a few tough guys are seen before it, and let them forwards. They're led in, and Toni says that Demiurge seems to've met this Exulta before. He asks how she is. Demiurge grimaces and says that she's... different. Either way, they're led deeper in, up the stairs, and eventually to that big bedroom they saw previously. 

Resting on the big pile of pillows is the kitsune herself, though currently dressed in a purple night gown. She greets the party, and says that she hasn't really had the time to whip up her more regal clothes. Either way, she welcomes them to the Land of Joy, and is sure they had a splendid time so far. Moota asks her how she knew about what's going on in the mainland. Exulta explains that she can see the future, and had foreseen the oncoming destruction. The party, sans Demiurge, is alarmed. Toni says that that kind of power would've been more than able to stop Aunqiller's move, to which Exulta supposes it could've, but says that she's seen many futures, and many of them lead to her rise. Even if this attack was stopped, she probably would've eventually plowed through them.

Misferri remarks that if she can see multiple futures, then surely she must see ones where Aunqiller is beaten. She admits she has, though they are very few and very far in between, those futures where the bronze wave is stopped in its tracks. Misferri says that either way, they should work for those better futures, yes? Exulta shrugs and says that if they want those other futures, that requires '''a lot''' of pieces to work together ''just'' right, far more than any one person to control, and with far too much chance for chaos. Right now, the best thing to do is to shrink in the corner rather than thrust herself on the enemy's blade.

Either way, she says there's plenty to do here, and plenty of people to do here. She remarks that she's meant this handsome young man, Donner- Demiurge, however, cuts her off. He says that they can't just hide. There's a monster out there bred to destroy, and robbed of her empathy. She might not have people out there she cares about, but he knows a lot of people, his friends know a lot of people, that will suffer. He says that if they hide, then everyone will keep on hurting, and nothing will change for the better.

Exulta takes pause at that, and sighs. She says that that's another thing, "better". For as long as history's stood, "better" was defined by the dominant. It was "better" to create those super soldiers. It was "better" to subjugate the enemies of Hosha. It was "better" to use the Dragon's powers to destroy and bully. Everyone on this planet has their own definition of "better", but every definition she's seen has led to pain and misery for those deemed "not better". Aunqiller might be the "not better" person here, but when she's gone, what then? There'll probably be another person claiming they're things are "better", claiming someone else is "not better", and things just repeat. 

Even if the Dragon's powers are wiped away, the world is going to find something else to use. If they hadn't, the old Hosha wouldn't have been able to turn metal into killing thingies before Demiurge arrived. Like it or not, the world is a bunch of animals clawing for the top, trying to be "better" than everyone else. Stopping the Bronze Wave will merely delay it, and someone else is just goiong to end up seeing the end of the world. So, now that she sees it's so close, she says that it's time to just let nature take its course and strangle itself on the noose its tied itself.

The party is each stunned by her words. Exulta sighs and says that now they've put her in a drinking mood again. She says that after a few sakes, she's going to organize their housing. Her previous offer still stands, even the Donner thing. And then, she shoos them off, and the party is led out of her temple.
----
The group is outside, each unsettled by the stuff Exulta said. Moota, a little uncertain, says that they can't just listen to that fox. She says that they still can't let Aunqiller win. Toni then asks "then what?" The group is quiet still, and Demiurge is uncomfortable about their state. He tries to say they can't just listen to her. Exulta's all sorts of weird. Moota, however, says that she's just going to sleep on this.

;Demi 11th

The next day comes, and Asalia tries to talk with the party about their plans, but the party, sans Demiurge, don't seem to have the strength to listen. The queen says that she's struggling to find a proper way of breaking past the enemy. She says that if they're to do something, they need everyone to work together if they're going to defeat her. Demiurge knows, but he says that everyone's in dower spirits since their talk with the kitsune. Asalia wonders what she talked about, to which Demiurge explains via cutaway. 

Asalia mulls over that information, and furrows her brow. She says that that's a lot for her to just lay on them. Demiurge asks how he can go through it, to which Asalia asks what he means. He says that he needs to disprove it, but how'll he disprove future sight. Asalia says that truth is, she's probably right about a lot of the stuff she said. Demiurge's spirit drops, but the queen speaks up. She says that it's true there may be more peril in the future, but that doesn't mean it should end. Death is certain in every being, but everyone finds some way to continue living. Demiurge asks her what keeps her moving, to which she answers that she sincerely believes that Decka's brought out the worst in people, and she wants to get rid of its head so everyone can mellow out.

The brief talk with Asalia seems to perk Demiuge up, and he realizes what he's going to say. For now, though, he's tasked with communicating with the party to try and raise their spirits.
*Moota - Moota says that she knows she should, that she knows she should fight them off. But now she's just wondering what they're going to do if they even beat her. Demiurge says that looking too far ahead will make it harder to live in the moment. Moota asks how he can say that: he's divinity, he should be looking well in advance, shouldn't he? Demiurge says he really should be more mindnful of the future. That's why he's going to fight here, because the only way to a better future is if he takes out the Dragon heart. There will be more who'll try to hurt in the future, but that just means that they're going to be wiser for them. History will have to look back at this and realize what needs to not happen. Hearing that, Moota seems a little happier.
*Toni - Toni says that he's never had ambition. And now... He's not even sure why he got wrapped up in this war, to which Demiurge said he wanted to stop this mayhem too, yeah? He then says that his struggles here aren't going to be worth it later, to which Demiurge says that there'll be centuries ahead of now that'll be grateful because people like him wanted to make things better. Toni seems to perk up a little, and asks if he really thinks that. Demiurge answers that he knows it, that his efforts will be felt ages from now.
*Misferri - She says that she's supposed to be better than this, but right now she's not really sure. She's not sure if she's even going to beat Aunqiller, or even if it's going to lead to a better ending for their world. Demiurge answers that they won't know the answer to either if they don't try. Misferri says that Exulta knows, to which Demiurge says she's just a strange lady who gave up on everything because she has nothing to lose out there. People like them, however, do have things to lose, including a whole world that's crying for aid. Misferri pauses, though nods determined, saying that she understands.

With them perked up, Moota says that she's ready to continue with the plan. Demiurge says that that's great, and then says there's one more person he needs to talk to. Toni asks who, and the Dragon looks towards the temple itself.
----
Donner has led Demiurge back to Exulta's bedroom, her preparing a drink for herself. She asks how the squad is, and Demiurge brushes past the question, saying that he needs to talk to her specifically. The kitsune says she's got only a few drinks and a few drug pieces left, to which Demiurge says that he wanted to talk to her about her whole "giving up" thing. The leader is curious, and asks him what he means. Demiurge says that he'd spoken with a few guys, and he knows that they don't have to be as defeatist as she thinks everyone should be. 

Exulta chuckles at this and leans back on the pillow pile. She says that she'd love to see what he could possibly mean. Demiurge explains thatlife isn't all about the end, that it's about what happens between. An ending is certain, but it's their actions that decide what happens and what's worthwhile throughout it. If he'd adopted her thinking, then this world wouldn't have existed. At that, Exulta asks if he's really happy with this world, to which Demiurge says "I have a lot of regrets" or "I will fix it". Either way, Exulta scoffs and says that his actions will just lead to another conqueror. This world's life cycle will be flushed with peril and danger because there'll be more people that want it. 

Demiurge realizes that he's not going to be able to tackle this orginaryily. So, he decides to go about it at a different angle. He explains that he comes from a place where there are more people like him, going out into space to develop more worlds like this one, with multiple different lifestyles and different histories. He says that this has gone on for all of Dragon history, for thousands of years. He asks her if she knows why they do it. Exulta is curious, and asks her why. Demiurge explains that they do it because Dragons find life, especially mortal life, fascinating. Mortals are functionally different from Dragons, and thus have a very different way of living.

Even if worlds end, he's heard many Dragons talk about how fascinating the journey has been for lifeforms. They didn't always look at the end, because the end was always the end for everything. They always saw the greatness of individuals behaving, and so the world keeps on. Hearing all of that, Exulta is actually stunned. She looks over her drink curious, and Demiurge supposes that she must believe that too. That's why instead of disappearing herself, she's living her life as best she could. Demiurge says that right now, he and his friends want to make sure the rest of the world can live like that too. And right now, Aunqiller is stopping that.

Exulta furrows her brow at the drink, and sighs and sets it down. She stands upright, and says that she'll gather her battle gear. Demiurge is surprised at that, and asks if she's serious. Exulta says that he's talked her into it, and now he has to deal with her. She says he better hope she doesn't get on his nerves. Speaking of, she's going to get her bedfellow ready for combat too. Donner is stunned at that, and begins following her away.
----
Night's beginning to dawn down and Demiurge is back with the group, telling them that Exulta's changed her mind. Toni asks how he did that, to which he explains that he did some soul diving. Now, they're going to have a future seer to help them beat Aunqiller. Moota says that he did something truly amazing, and thanks him for his work. She's sure this'll be helpful in the upcoming fight.

More time passes, and eventually Exulta herself steps out, dressed in her tight purple dress with her wrap hovering behind her shoulders. She tells the group that she's now their funny new roommate. Alongside her is the skunk guy from before, and she says that they're joined by mister silent but deadly himself, Donner. The skunk asks that she not refer to him as such, but still, says that he's here to help them out. Moota says that she's thankful for any effort they can all provide. She says that she wants to know what Aunqiller is doing, to which the kitsune says that she'll have to do a ritual to see something that specific. She suggests that the group rest up, they may have to wait for the morning.

Demiurge thanks her for her work, to which she says it's nothing. So, the party rests up.

;Demi 12th

The next day comes, and the group arrives before Asalia, Exulta herself coming close. Exulta says that she's divined a view of the land away, and says that things are going as well as a hangover. The Bronze Wave brought a weapon on wheels out of the kingdom that'd held them back, and is forcing its way to the valley north of it. Misferri says that that must be the war machine accounted for, and it sounds like they're targeting Marsha. Asalia says that if they take too long, one more kingdom will be felled and claimed by Aunqiller. 

Moota then asks what they should do, to which Demiurge says they have to stop it. They need to reach that war machine and make sure it never hurts anyone again, first and foremost. Toni brings up that the people around probably don't distrust them anymore now that Aunqiller is on the attack, so they should probably win back their support once they fell it. The Dragon asks Exulta if that's possible, to which she replies she's seen it possible to defeat the machine, though warns that it will be exceedingly difficult. 

Either way, Moota says that they've got their mission. Asalia says that she and the people of Egea will wait here, and they will offer them whatever weaponry, armory, or whatever else if they need it. Exulta says that her stuf is also available, and that she and Donner are dressed to kick butt. Either way, the party now has a mission.

;Demi 12th - Demi 18th

The party flies off the island, makes their way near Egea. When they get close, they can see it is flying the flag of Decka, and Moota, though reluctantly, says they'll have to ignore it. Their destination is towards the valley. They go there, and can see several soldiers on the field, some of Marsha some of Decka. And from afar, they can see a steely monster working its way through the army, sending bolts of amplified magic out to wear down on their forces. Misferri says that an aerial appraoch could prove fatal for them with its firepower, they'll have to approach it on foot. 

Exulta says that they're gonna have to be careful if they wanna get back in time to party. Lots of enemies they'll have to tear through, and lots of forces that can tear through them. Toni looks around and asks where the other guy is. Then, a puff of smoke blinds them, revealing Donner. He says that he was able to get a reading of the general layout and enemies. He thinks he's ascertained as safe a route as possible through the enemies and to the war machine. Exulta says that he'll be getting a real good reward later, before saying that Demiurge is on point, she supposes.

With that, players are tasked with progressing forwards, through the enemies. And in the process, players can learn about Exulta and Donner as party members. Exulta is primarily a magic damage dealer, using Cosmic magic to deal the respective damage, complete with a Summon spell that can deal cosmic damage multiple times, and an ability that can nullify an oncoming attack, and she uses her wrap to deal Slash damage. Donner is an agile character with access to Wind magic, the Smell ailment, and utilizes martial arts to deal Smash damage. THey prove to be quite helpful as players make their way through the fields and towards the edge of the valley, having to contend with many dangerous Decka soldiers.

The process proves quite dangerous, especially given the fact that some midbosses in this area even Block physical attacks. However, as long as players utilize their magic well, they'll be able to overwhelm the foes. They work and work, and eventually they make their way close to the edge of the valley, the kingdom of Marsha poised up there such that the rear was unapproachable while all of the defenses could be poured into the front. However, the War Machine is there to wear down on their forces, and the party realizes they need to act fast. Moota asks Exulta how dangerous it is, to which the kitsune says that they're going to get their asses kicked. However, she thinks she sees flaws in the machine, and if they follow her instructions, they can beat it.
----
Once the party's ready, they progress, approaching the machine. From afar, Moota sends a blast of light, Toni hurls chunks of earth at it, and Missferi fires a bolt of electricity at it. The machine reacted to the damage and turned, spying the party. Then, a voice within speaks, saying that the lot of them are supposed to be dead. Donner says that the Dragon was quite determined to stop this. The voice within the War Machine speaks again, saying that it matters not, ont while they have this weapon in hand. Even the Dragon cannot withstand its amplified magic blasts! 

However, Demiurge's eyes widen, and hee says that that voice sounds familiar. Toni remarks that he's right. It sounds like one of those voices on the audio players in Hosha. The voice inside the machine remarks that she wondered who'd torn those down. Moota then addresses her as '''Doctor Kresha''', saying that she's part of what made Aunqiller. The gecko within laughs and remarks that she stood upon giants, and now sees the way to greatness. The mightiest weapon the world has seen is on her side. Misferri asks if she seriously thinks that she's in control, to which the voice within says that Aunqiller is merely sweeping up the less desirable so that they can rule all. 

Demiurge remarks that she's part of the problem. That she's helped hurt the world like this. Kresha declares that the world wouldn't be like this if everyone didn't fight back. Now they'll witness the overwhelming strength of the First Kingdom! The War Machine's weaponry turns towards the party, and Toni asks Exulta what they're going to do. Exulta answers that that thing's insides take in magical energy, utilize a sequence of stones to reflect the magic, before belching it out in greater frequency. Long story short, they'll likely handle at most one, maybe two, blasts. Moota asks then what they're to do, to which she says that she sees the parts of the machinery aren't reinforced against all the elements. If they can fire the right magics at the right parts at the right time, they can interrupt its charge and wail on it. 

With that, players are prompted to battle the '''War Machine'''. The weapon bears powerful defenses, making it hard to do much damage to it, while its agility is low, practically guarenteeing it'll act last. In addition, it fires dangerous minor magics at it, the likes of which don't need to be charged. Eventually it'll use the skill '''Genocide Bomb''', at which it'll charge up an attack for two turns. When it initiates, Exulta warns that one of those dangerous attacks are coming, and at this point, multiple parts of the tank will be targetable, and players will be prompted to attack certain parts with certain elements. If players don't react fast enough, it'll fire off a Pure blast that'll deal Sever damage to everyone. If players do it accordingly, they'll cause it to freeze up, lowering its defesnes and leaving it a sitting duck for a fair few attacks.

After its health gets lower, Kresha bellows out that her machine should be inpenetrable! She declares then bellows to the soldiers, saying if the War Machine falls here, Aunqiller will deal unto them a fate worse than death! At this, Decka soldiers will frequently appear to assist it, some even having a skill that lets them block an attack for the War Machine. At this point, players are encouraged to either Knock Down the soldiers so they can actually strike the tank when it's charging, or to use ailments to either disoreint them, or to use Donner's Smell to scare them away. After enough work, the War Machine's health drops.

The machine creeks to a halt, the treads of it snapping while the main cannon falls apart. Kresha can be heard fiddling with the controls as she demands the machine works. Moota declares that she's lost and that all she can do is come out and face imprisonment! Kresha tells her to shut up, and that once her beautiful machine is running again, she'll destroy them! Moota glances towards Demiurge, who says that they can't let this machine stand. So, he goes up to the out of commission creation, and begins pushing it, it dragging through the soil. Kresha asks what he's doing.

Demiurge pushes the machine closer and closer to the edge of the valley, though the gecko isn't aware. She keeps fiddling with the controls, and eventually he brings it to the edge. Then, with one final huff, he bumps it off the edge, and sends it hurtling into the valley. Kresha can be heard screaming as the deadly machine enters freefall, going... going... going... A loud crash echoes out from below, solidiying its defeat. The many Decka soldiers realize the defeat of their deadliest weapon, and are suddenly less confident. With that, the Marshan troops are able to push back the soldiers and force them back to Decka! The day is saved, and Decka's dangerous weapon is no more!
----
After clearing the army, the people of Marsha are thankful for their aid. The peacock they'd previously fought in particular is there to greet them, saying that he's sorry for their attack. He's willing to offer them housing in this trying time, as well as equipment. Moota says she's grateful for that, but says that they'll be sure to utilize their equipment however they can. For now, though, they need to prepare for an assault on Decka while their machinery is weakened. The peacock says that he'll try and organize people to help in the fight.

The party starts to leave, and Exulta remarks that she's hearing a lot of names get tossed around that she doesn't really know. Moota says that she'll be sure to review it later. For now, however, they need to make sure they're ready for the final fight. First, they'll need to recover Egea and save the people within. Then, they'll need to tackle Decka itself. Exulta says that she's sure Donner would can get a read of the situation. The skunk supposes he can, though it may take him a little. Exulta tells him to take all the time he needs. For now, she has her cushy island to go back to.

Moota supposes that they've done about all they can for now. In the meantime, they should make sure that they and their armies are prepared for whatever comes.
----
After this, players have freetime to do whatever they wish.

;Demi 19th

The party wakes up on their island yet again, stepping out. Asalia is grateful about the recent news. Moota says she's just happy they got through this alive. Though, she understands they still have a lot of work to do. She says that Marsha's organizing communication and the others should be preparing an attack sometime soon. For now, though, they're going to make sure they take back their home. She tells Demiurge that once they push the enemy back, they are going to end this nightmare.
===Finale===
The day is up, and with it, Asalia says that she's preparing her forces to reclaim the kingdom. For now, they should each get ready for the assault. Which means, free time.

;Demi 19th - Demi 22nd

With this, players are able to do as they wish, hanging out with party members, gathering supplies, rinding levels, and so on and so forth. 

The night of Demi 22nd comes, and Missferi tells the group that the soldiers are preparing for an offensive tomorrow. She says that Donner's done them a good surface examining the many soldiers. Doner says that he did an ok job. Toni remarks that after everything, they're finally going to get an edge in this fight. Soon, they'll be able to destroy Aunqiller. Moota says that their nightmare is nearing its end. She turns to Demiurge, and says they couldn't have done this without him. The Dragon says that it's the least that they could do.

Either way, tomorrow it's time to go out.

;Demi 23rd

The day comes, and Demiurge, the party, and several soldiers are near the shore. The soldiers say that they're ready to battle, and Moota says that they'll have to be careful, they can't afford to lose too many people anymore. The soldiers nod, and everyone groups onto Demiurge. Exulta turns to Donner, as if expecting him to say something, though he shies away. She tells everyone to mind Donner's findings when they approach, those'll be the best chance to catch the enemies off guard while the capable crew swings in to finish them off.

With that, Demiurge spreads his wings, and flies upwards, heading off the island.
----
The players approach the field of Egea, looking on as the castle remains filled by the forces of evil. Misferri says that she'll direct her soldiers accordingly, and meet up with the group at the rendezvous point. Donner says he'll be providing support from the shadows. Lotta, Toni, and Exulta say that they'll go on the offensive. With that, Demiurge touches down, and the group splits up. Demiurge and the other three stand alone, looking on the kingdom. Exulta looks over it, and shrugs, saying it doesn't really seem like a party place. Moota, meanwhile, can only imagine what her people are feeling, to which Toni says they're probably hadling themselves well thanks to Asalia's words. Moota tells him she hopes so.

Either way, now's the time to go in, and face the enemies head on. With that, they approached the front gates, spying new cannons positioned on top of it. The group remains careful as they approach, intent on avoiding the sight of the cannonades.

...

The party enters, and as soon as they do, several Decka troops are crowding forward, rushing into the square to confront them. Thankfully, there are no villagers out in front. Seeing the group come in, Moota tells the party that they'll need to hold out long enough for their allies to give the enemies the Bullhorn attack. With that, players are thrust into a battle. Players find themselves needing to last several turns against enemies, or defeat enough enemies. Decka soldiers fill in empty spots the turn after enemies are felled, the four of them wearing down each foe. 

After defeating several foes, the many soldiers take pause as they hear another part of the kingdom. Looking towards it, they can see that they've been blitzed by several Egea soldiers. High ranking soldiers orders the cannonades to fire on them. However, there's a pause. They turn, and see several soldiers that would've aimed the cannons lay knocked out. They're confused, and in a puff of smoke, a familiar skunk appears by the party, saying that he took out the enemies' dangerous weapons. Exulta tells him he did splendid! 

Now, Misferri herself is able to meet up with the group, them able to break away from the main conflict to reconvene. Misferri says that their soldiers are able to keep the enemies at a standstill right now, and says that if they act fast, they can take the fight! With that, players are prompted to go to various parts of the city, intent on battling enemies so that the Egea soldiers can claim more ground. Eventually, however, the super soldiers are unveiled, these ones bearing a feature similar to the previous boss in that they revive themselves with electricity. These supers prove to be tough, but with enough planning, the heroes should be able to defeat them. 

It takes a lot of work, but soon the Decka soldiers are forced to flee Egea and go in the direction of the conqueror's castle. With Egea back under their control, the party pants and pants, before breathing a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, the many people of Egea come out from the buildings and alleys, as if confused about the enemy forces disappearing. And when they realize they're gone, there are cheers in the kingdom. The party is there to accept the praise, and sit down, breathing a sigh of relief. Exulta looks up, and remarks that the sun is starting to rise again. Indeed, it seemed that this fight for Egea had taken them all night.

;Demi 24th

Moota says that it wouldn't be proper, but she could really go for a sleeping spell. Those except for Exulta, Misferri, Moota, and Demiurge begin to head over to the castle. Meanwhile, Demiurge tells Moota that he can deal with the crowd. The ferret tells him that she'd hate to put more work on him, but the Dragon says that he's had to get more responsible for a long time now. Misferri is willing to bring the princess back. Exulta tells Demiurge that everyone's pretty tired, but she herself is a bit of a nightowl. She's sure she can talk to them, to which Demiurge says that she might be a bit too much an animal for these guys. She shrugs and heads off to the castle herself.
----
The crowd gathers around Demiurge, looking up at him curious. The Dragon looks over them, as if suddenly realizing what he just agreed to. He takes a few deep breaths, and greets the many people, saying that plenty has happened as of late. The royals have been away, but now they're getting the strength to actually push back these guys, as they probably saw. And now, well, Egea is gotten. One of the crowd asks if the Decka are going to come back. Demiurge says there's no doubt they'll try and attack again, but they'll have a much harder time with it. They won't be able to pull the trick from before, and they lack their deadliest weapon. 

He says that the lot of them are preparing to defeat Aunqiller once and for all. Marsha's mobilizing and getting ready to attack alongside others. He assures that they're safe, and the crowd's spirits seem raised. Demiurge himself feels tired, and he decides to make his way to the palace too while these guys are enjoying the return of their rulers. Demiurge, meanwhile, collapses on one of the castle's furnitures.

;Demi 25th

After a day of resting, the dragon's flown off to the Land of Joy. Many of those that came here in the first place want to go back, though a few (some npcs that offered sidequests in the past) prefer to stay. Demiurge flies back, and has Asalia brought to Egea. Asalia has been brought up to speed on the situation, and she says that she's grateful to the party for everything they've done. Donner says it's the least they could do, Toni saying he's just glad they knocked that maniac down a peg. Moota says that they've yet to be told to mobilize, to which she says their best bet is to make sure everyone's prepared for the oncoming fight.

She tells them all to rest now, and to stay alert for the oncoming fight.

;Demi 26th - Demi 28th

And thus, more free time is allowed in the now snowier landscape.

;Demi 29th

On this day, the many soldiers have decided to head out. The party is included in this, and are mobilizing. As they do, each party member is feeling a sort of elation. This fight is going to be the beginning of the end, and this is what's going to make sure they can work towards fixing everything that's happene so far. Exulta, meanwhile, is moreso excited to see whatever celebration this fight is going to net them. The party heads out and towards Decka.

Down there, they see several soldiers at work already. They're fighting and fighting, pressing back the Decka forces and intent on getting near the castle. Egea forces are dealing with the super soldiers while the party themselves are just arriving. They're ready to head in to attack, though pause as a loud gong echoes out through the battlefield. Everyone looks up to the source, spying a long platform extending from the castle, upon it the hulking figure of Aunqiller herself. She walks across the platform, and gets to a device at the end that amplifies the speaker's voice. 

She addresses them, saying that they are bold to raise arms like this, though there's a fine line between bravery and stupidity. She says that in challenging her directly, they only face a losing battle. Thus, she warns them that if they return to the kingdoms they came from, they merely have to worry about a fight for the future. If they pesist in their fight, they will die. At that, the Decka soldiers pull away, clearly uncertain about what she's talking about. The other soldiers, however, press on, not minding her threat. At that, Aunqiller focuses her magic, and a bright glow emanates form her chestplate.

Demiurge recognizes the light, and is concerned. The light in her chest rose up to her throat. She glares down towards a patch of soldiers, renched her jaws wide open, and bellows out a beam of Pure magic, it slamming the ground with enough force to produce a decently powerful earthquake, toppling the many soldiers and causing a few nearby hills to fall apart. Those at the point of impact, meanwhile, where instantly vaporized. And then, the beam started to sweep across, the soldiers in its path afforded only a split second to watch the magic come straight towards them. 

Few were able to get up and flee away while the rest were atomized, left with not a trace except for the blackened soil that used to be the ground they fought upon. The beam sweeped away more and more, until all of the soldiers that were upon the battlefield were either dead or fled. Then, the beam petered out, leaving behind a battlefield painted in the blackness of destruction. The Decka soldiers, meanwhile, were stunned at the display of power. All of the soldiers present were shocked for that matter. Everyone looked up at the mighty conqueror.

She leans into the amplifier device, and says that all of their days are numbered. With that, she stepped away and back into her castle, everyone mortified at just what this foe is capable of.
----
That night, all of the armies had retreated from the battlefield, and people in Egea are scared. Several of the soldiers remark that she's singlehandedly stronger than multiple armies. How are they to stop her?! Misferri is uncertain as well, though eventually says that they need to do this in a way to avoid her knowledge. Though for that, they'll have to get around the enemy soldiers without engaging them. At that, Exulta says that Donner would probably have to find a way through, to which the skunk nervously answers that he probably can. 

To that, Moota says that there's still the interior to worry about. They probably won't have to worry about her blasting her own kingdom with that kind of magic. But even then, if they are to approach her herself, they'll probably have to prepare for that. TO that, Toni says that they probably have the documents for her armor somewhere. Those documents earlier mentioned that being used to hold the heart, which is probably the source of that attack. Misferri says that they'll have to look through her archives with a fine-toothed comb. 

Demiurge says that a normal assault isn't going to do them any favors here. They're going to be smart about this, and they'll have to do anything they can to weaken her defenses and allow the others to come in to defeat her. Moota says that this'll be their toughest fight yet.

With that, night comes, the party rests, and Donner heads out, stealthing through the field to try and ascertain anything he can out of the field. 

;Demi 30th - Jaunus 10th

The next morning comes, and Donner tells the party he's gathered an entry route. They'll have to be swift however, there are some tough guards out there. Misferri says that that's fine, and that they'll be swift as they deal with them.

With that, the group makes their way out, carefully maneuvering around the field to get to the kingdom itself, needing to get around to its eastern edge, looking for a sewer pipe with an artifical river leading to the ocean. And of course, there stands guards. Tough-looking guards. Seeing them, Donner says that he wasn't able to get past these guys, but he's sure the group will be able to take them down. With that, players are given the chance to fight the '''Sewer Guards''', who prove not to be too terribly tough compared to what players have encountered thus far.

With them down, Misferri warns that they're going into uncharted territory now. She tells the party to be careful as they progress.
----
The pary is thus required to make their way through the annals of the kingdom. Due to Demiurge's size, they'll have to find an opening big enough to go through. Meanwhile, there are many soldiers within here that are keeping watch. The various party members have to be careful as they progress. And eventually, after enough maneuvering, the group finds a slope upwards, sunlight shining down from it. Toni says that, based on the overall structure and their maneuvering, this way will lead them into the main city. He says that they'll probably have to deal with worse numbers up there.

The group make it up, and out in a section of the kingdom filled with garbage. There also stands a wall of iron bars with a locked door, cutting them off from the rest of the city. However, the party is free to either defeat the guards by the door for their key, or to fly over it. They look out, and Demiurge takes a moment to look over the strange realm. He remembered it looking fairly humble before, but now its many buildings stretch as high as mountains, and each buildings bears Draconic Imagery on them. Misferri prompts him that they should observe later. 

The group heads out and makes it away from the dump. They find that the many roads around the buildings are quite thin, creating a sort of maze-like effect to this setting. Made worse by the guards around, making it so much harder to go around. Demiurge finds he can't fly because of how thin the walls are. The party is forced to go towards the main road, where they find several citizens there trying to make money of their own, though they can be seen being forced to give a significant portion of their earnings to guards nearby, who're constantly monitoring the market. Worse still, in the center of the main road, the party is horrified to see a statue of Aunqiller herself, it decorated in the hands of dozens upon dozens citizens. The statue boasts the plaque "Monument of Thieves".

The party is weary about getting anywhere near, there being a bunch of guards in the center. There are, however, citizens around the alley, sat down and wearing clothing akin to potato sacks. Moota says they've been able to get a fair few details about the city. From the little bits they got, they learned that the many people here were expected to be totally subservient and reverant of Aunqiller. Those that feared were apparently struck by a guards' whip. The citizens near say that things have only gotten worse since the Dragon appeared. 

Since he flew over and rejected her, there were a few members of the city that chose to praise him as the proper ruler, the proper divinity, not Aunqiller. And seeing that, the bear thought them all ungrateful. All that supported them would be executed, and now, those that failed payment for a week would be deemed thieves and stripped of their thieving hands. The party is disgusted at these words, and the citizen says that death could come from anywhere. She makes sure that they know they are all mere slabs of meat to her. Especially with those that practice Demiurge-ism. They are... special victims. Demiurge asks what they mean, to which the citizen says that they pray he doesn't learn. 

Either way, the goal is the castle. Though Misferri looks towards the walls containing the city, and spies something alarming. Up above, there are those audio devices that were placed in Egea a while ago. Misferri wonders if that could possibly mean... Moota decides that if there's even the chance that something like ''that'' could happen, then they need to stop those things asap. Toni points out that if they just fly up to the walls, then they'll likely alert all of the guards and get them to play that horrible noise. Moota says that in that case, they'll need to make their way onto the walls from the castle.

With that, the party heads towards the edge of the kingdom, approaching the tall castle. Though as they come closer, they see that the courtyard before it boasts the plaque '''Garden of Heresy'''. And there in the garden... They see, behind the hedges, only slightly obscured by the foliage, numerous crucifixes. And on them are various citizens. Donner gulps nervously, and asks if this is what those citizens from before meant about what happened to thsoe that practiced Demiurge-ism. Demiurge looks on, feeling disgusted. Had she really done this because they believed in him? Moota says that she will be made to pay for everyone harmed under her rule.

With that, the party is prompted to get past the gate and make their way into the castle proper, using Demiurge's wings to go over it and race to the entrance. 
----
They make it to the castle, and thusly are prompted to race up its halls. This involves battling even more soldiers within. Among said soldiers also include soldiers empowered by the Draconic blood. Eventually, they make it up to a level equal to the walls, and before moving further, Moota tells them that now's their chance to get rid of those noise devices. With that, players are thus prompted to go about the process they'd gone through before with Egea, going around the upper walls to get to the various nonise devices, needing to take care of clusters of enemies along the way. Along the way, Misferri notes the weapons lining the wall, and says they should take out their cannons and ballista. With those out of the way, they'll be able to make it in the air unobstructed.

The process proves long, but eventually they're able to overwhelm the various soldiers, get at each sound player, and destroy them. Toni remarks that the city will probably be a little safer now, and Misferri says that they can now press on. She then looks up to the balcony extending from Aunqiller's throne, and says they can probably head up there right now. Demiurge, however, says that they can't go just yet. There were people contained here, they were going to be made into soldiers. He looks over the castle, and spies some metal hastily plastered over a hole in the castle. He says that those people were up there. With that, the party's now tasked with going into the castle and heading up to the prison level.
----
The party races in and makes their way through the innards and up to the level specified. This means more and more soldiers, until eventually they make it to the hall with the damaged wall. And investigating further, they uncover the room with the many prison cells and people within. And unfortunately, there are more enemies within, from soldiers to scientists. Demiurge says that after they release these guys, they're going to make sure Aunqiller can't do this to anyone else. With that, players are thrust into a battle with the '''Prison Horde'''. It's not a hard fight, and soon enough, players will be able to fell each of them. 

With this horde of enemies down, the party goes about the process of dismantling each lock, allowing each prisoner free. And at this, Moota says that it'll be a little hard to have these guys back in Egea. She's sure many of her subjects will be antsy about allowing more refugees after the last incident, and they probably won't be very welcome in Decka. Exulta, however, raises a hand, and says her place should be just right. With that, Demiurge says they should use this time to bring everyone out and over there. And this will cost players a day.

The night the prisoners are brought back, the many prisoners are brought to the Land of Joy. Toni remarks that those guys were really out of it on their way over. Demiurge remarks that there are plenty of abnormals on this island. Donner says that the many prisoners will have to spend some time getting used to this Land's flavor, but he's sure with enough time, they'll acclimate. Demiurge sighs and says that he's feeling a little tired now. Moota remarks that they had gogne through a fair bit right now. She says that their victory is within reach, and if they're going to win, then they must be at their strongest. So, she warns the group to be as ready as possible for the final battle.
----
The next day comes, and now, with as much done to Decka as possible, the group has one last objective: to confront Aunqiller. Demiurge is able to fly up to the balcony The party thus heads on over, and stands before the doors to the throneroom. Moota warns that when they go through here, there is no turning back. They're going to battle a monster empowered by a divine heart. She warns that they should only go in if he's absolutely certain that they can win this fight. Eventually, the player decides to go in, and thus enters.

The party enters the throneroom, said room brandishing a rug done up in a style similar to what Pure magic looks like. There also stands a brilliant throne with a mural behind it, showing various mortals growing out of what looks to be the remains of a Dragon. And sitting on the throne was the divinity herself, Aunqiller. The bear glares down on the party, remarking that they stand in the presence of destruction. Moota says that after everything she's done, it's time for her to pay for her crimes. Toni says that all of her pain and misery will be answered for.

Aunqiller says that she more than anyone knows about pain and misery. She was grown in it, fostered, until she became what she is today. She says that she was bred to claim the world, so why do they stand before them? Misferri says that it's true, no one should go through what she ended up going through. However, that doesn't mean that the people of this world deserve to suffer for her! Exulta tells her that she's been a real bummer, and that she just wants to go back to drinking and sleeping around. Hell, a lot of people just want to do that, but they can't because people like her are making things even more miserable. Donner tells her that as scary as she is, he trusts everyone here to stand up to her.

The bear grimaces and stands, taking up her weapon and stepping forwards. She turns to Demiurge, saying that he's raised this world, that he fostered this future. And now he stands in opposition to it. Demiurge says he never wanted something this awful to happen, though she says that it did, and now they've had to live with it. But now she stands ready to accomplish the goal set centuries ago. She and she alone will accomplish that vision, and anyone else will just try and create something as powerful as her. Demiurge declares that he'll make sure nothing like her happens again. 

With that, she draws her massive sword, and players are forced into a battle with '''Aunqiller'''. This fight proves to be quite tricky. Aunqiller wields the power to lower everyone's stats, and highly powerful moves, from the ability to use Summoning magic, to powerful Pure magic, to exceptionally dangerous Slash skills. She uses Pure magic later in the battle, and also later in the fight, she starts using reflection magic to essentially force players to damage themselves in order to attack her, or to use a different attack type. After enough damage, however, she's taken down.

She gasps in pain and starts to fall to her knees, using her sword to prop herself up. The party themselves, meanwhile, look pretty tired themselves, however they each seem happy, albeit weary, with Aunqiller's state. The bear punches the ground in frustration, shouting that she can't lose. She's the most powerful creature on this planet, she's the one that's supposed to control this world. Demiurge says that it's over. She is a relic of an old mistake of his, and now it's time for it to all end. Aunqiller demands he shut up, that she refuses to let her life be thrown away just because of some holier than tho weakling. She climbs up to her feet, and tells them all that they are going to die.

With that, she taps a few buttons on her wrist, and her armor hisses. The chestplate opens up, and everyone's disgustd to see the pumping, Draconian heart, tubes hooked up from it and running through the interior of the armor. Aunqiller flashes a cruel smile and electricity builds in her palm. Demiurge reaches forwards and tells her to stop, only for her to deathgrip the heart planted in the armor. With that, it drums extremely loudly, the sound reverberating around the walls as tubes around the heart suddenly light up even brighter. And at that, Aunqiller pants and pants, her body writhing as the organ pumps at unnatural speeds. 

The blood from it runs through her at intense speeds and she hunches over. The party can only watch as her body pumps up. Her muscles grow, her eyes bulge out, and her veins are popping. She pumps up to the point that plates of her armor pop off of her, her growing a good three feet. She bears a wide, pained grin as she glares at each of them. Moota looks on in horror, and says that she's even stronger than before! Exulta assures that she will indeed kick their butts. Misferri tells them all it's too late to back out now, it's do or die! Demiurge stands upright, and tells Aunqiller that he's going to silence that accursed heart!

With that, players are forced into one last fight, battling '''Pure Aunqiller'''. She wields far greater stats now, and can even drain Electricity. Worse still, she utilizes more Pure magic than before, thus forcing allies to use either buffs or debuffs instead of relying on elemental affinities. Worse still is that she even has access to Charge and Concentrate, meaning that she can make her next attack deal obscene damage. It's as tough as tough can get, but smart players should be able to keep up healing and lower the overall damage. With enough work, Pure Aunqiller is finally beaten.

The next scene plays, showing the throneroom torn up in their fight. Numerous cracks are around the interior, and the room seems to be wriggling precariously. The party keeps on fighting, though notice that the room is going to collapse. Seeing this, Demiurge tells the party that he's going to finish this, and asks them to give him an opening. With that, the party follows suit. Misferri rushes forwards and shoots at the foe's heart, causing her to wince. Moota leaps up and swings her sword down on an arm to keep it disoriented. Exulta uses her wrap to ensnare the other and pull it back, Toni and Donner joining her to hold the wrap back. And as her arms are spread, Demiurge rushes in, and reaches into the cavity in the chestplate. There, he manages to wrap his claw around the Draconic heart, and pulls back, tugging the tubes. 

Aunqiller shouts in pain at the pull, but the Dragon pulls harder and harder. Then, with a sharp pull, the tubes snap and the heart is severed from the armor. Then, he leaps off of her, and magic can be seen going from his core up his throat. Seeing the attack, the party races away while Aunqiller's feeling the lifeblood she's relied on start to run out. Demiurge, however, fires a powerful Pure beam upon her, hitting her with enough force to cause the ground beneath her to crumble. It falls apart and she falls down, her increased mass causing the rooms beneath to fall apart beneath her. The room is shattering, and the party thus races out. The throneroom is crumbling in on itself, and the balcony outside is falling out. The party leaps on Demiurge's back, and he flaps his wings and flies away. They each look back, and watch as a majority of a castle they were just in is collapsing, and each of them now at the very bottom of the rubble is definitely Aunqiller.

After everything, each party member is sure that Aunqiller is finally fallen.
----
Following this, players have freetime. Meanwhile, Asalia lets the party knows that she'll be seeing to the refugees and finally subduing any military tension with Decka. She also tells them that she's so glad to've met every one of them, and that every one of them chose to fight for righteousness. She swears to welcome each and every one of them.


;Jaunus 11th

On this day, Moota is setting up a feast at Egea, at which the goods are being transfered to the many people. Asalia tells the party (sans Moota and Misferri, who're busy with the feast) that her kingdom has everything being set up with the feast. She tells the party that they should prepare themselves for the nicest night in a long time. Kingdoms from around the world are going to join together to look forwards to a world without Decka's influence. Toni sighs and is excited to see a less scary world. Exulta says she's just ready to kick back and relax for a night finally. It's been a couple months, and she just hates fighting. She's lucky Donner was there to massage her troubles away.

Demiurge nods and flutters his eyelids, before giving a yawn. Toni asks if he's alright, remarking that he's been getting sleepier as of recently. Demiurge swears that he is, it's not like he has to fight again. He then asks what's going on with Decka anyways. Asalia says that much of the soldiers have fled, though many of the kingdoms are keeping an eye out for them to make sure they don't try anything. Meanwhile, the civilians are being split between Egea and the Land of Joy, as well as any other kingdom willing to take them. Toni then says that his governors have been trying to get the material Decka stole, though they aren't getting much of them thanks to other kingdoms claiming them. 

Demiurge remarks that that sounds nice. He thinks he's going to just laze about for a little while until the feast comes. Asalia says that she'll be willing to give him free reign on any commodities their kingdom offers, though Demiurge says he'll be fine anyways. With that, the Dragon exits the castle and heads out into the square. Now, it seems only specks of blood remain in the streets, though much of the damage they've gotten is gone. Meanwhile, there's an overall more calm air in the environment, with many of the Egeans enjoying their time together and looking forwards to the feast. Said feast can be seen as long, lavish tables being set up in the square while braziers with flags hanging from them are being set up.

As Demiurge looks over the commodities, he senses a presence. He turns, and can see a certain light coming down a far ways away. He recognizes that light as one person and one person alone, and thus spreads his wings and flies away. He goes off to the distance, way in the middle of the field, and sees Sophia herself, standing there. He approaches, and she says that he's done well. Spirits are far greater now than when he last woke up. Demiurge is grateful, though says that he has to ask something of her real quick. He reaches into his pack, and pulls out the Draconic heart Aunqiller had acquired. He says that this thing caused a lot of danger, and he needs to make sure it can't be used again.

Sophia looks over it, and says that that is a hard task for anyone. Only the force of the destruction of a world can destroy any part of a Dragon past regeneration. Clearly Demiurge has yet to be comfortable with that power, but she herself has more than mastered that. She thus takes the desecrated heart between her hands, and Pure magic flows through her, coming from her core to her claws. The Pure magic enwraps the heart, and sparks fly as the organ seems to fight back against the magic. However, with enough work, she's able to vaporize the organ, rendering it to mere vapor. Demiurge can't help but gulp nervously as he sees it destroyed. He thanks her, and she assures that it's no problem, though he should get used to something like that in his own time. Speaking of which, there's something she needs to talk to him about.

She says that Dragons his age aren't used to dealing with this much stress at a time. Their bodies tend to quiver and ache, until they collapse. Demiurge's eyes widen, and he asks if she means what he thinks she means. She says that it's only a theory for now, but she asks him if he's been feeling tired as of late. Demiurge admits that he has, to which she says that he's hurting, and getting close to resting yet again. The bronze Dragon asks if he's going to sleep again, to which she says that he can fight it as much as he can, but eventually he'll likely fall asleep all his own. She says that if he wills it, he can enter a 500 year sleep all over again.

Demiurge says that he's gone through so much and starts to tear up, though Sophia tells him that this is just the cycle of a Dragon. In a few centuries time, he'll eventually not even need to sleep as long. But for now, he just needs to rest. He's been through a lot. Demiurge sighs and says that she's right. Sophia says that his people's feast is approaching, and that that's a good time for him to say his goodbyes to the people he cares about. And, for his sake, she'll make sure to bring him somewhere no one will take anything from his body. Demiurge thanks her for that. Thus, he turns to Egea, and flies off.
----
With this, evening has fallen, and the main street of Egea is a light with excitement. Many tables have been set about there with all sorts of fancy meals. And, of course, the many party members can be seen partaking in the festivities. And Demiurge realizes he's going to talk to each of them. 
*Moota - Moota can be found in the castle courtyard, the gates open to allow the people of the kingdom to enter and eat there as well, Misferri there to keep watch. Moota herself is at a table with Asalia beside her, and a paintaing of her father on the table. She greets Demiurge, asking if he's enjoying the event. Demiurge says that he's happier than he has been in a while, honestly. He asks how she's feeling, to which she says that she's sure her old man will look upon this day fondly. She says that she's not sure what's in the kingdom's future, but it sounds like the kingdoms are going to start pitching in more and more. Demiurge says that he can only hope, and the ferret asks him if he's going to hang around, make sure things stay safe. The Dragon says that he'd love to, but he's going to go to sleep for a long time now, and he won't exactly be able to stop it. Moota and Asalia's eyes widen in shock. Moota asks if he's serious, to which Demiurge nods. Moota says that there must be a way, to which Demiurge replies that the powers that be deem otherwise. The ferret tears up, and says that she can't imagine what she'll do without him. Demiurge assures that she's grown a lot and that she'll do plenty on her own. Moota motions for him to lean down. He does so, and the two ferrets hug him, thaning him for everything.
*Toni - Toni is out at the edge of the square. He's eating a lot of food, and leaning back in a chair. He sees the Dragon, and greets him merrily. He says that he hasn't seen this many people happy in a long time. Demiurge remarks that it is nice, and asks himwhat he's probably going to do. Toni thusly says that his gang will probably be returning to Hertsi after garnering whatever they can from Decka. Misferri assured that no material on the draconian weaponization has been burned swiftly. Demiurge remarks that Hertsi caused some problem with their material, to which Toni says that a lot of other kingdoms are acquiring some for themselves, so Hertsi will not be seeing anything close to their previous power. He says that after all of the work the Dragon did, he should come over to help raise it up. The Dragon then admits that he's not going to be around for much longer. The bobcat asks what he means, to which he explains about the slumber. Toni remarks that he can't just go away after everything, to which he says he can't fight it. The bobcat says that everyone here will work to make sure what he wishes comes to fruition.
*Misferri - Misferri is standing guard at the gates to the courtyard. She greets the Dragon, saying that everything's calm in the feast. Still, she's making sure everything's as safe as can be. The many guards and even some citizens came together to make sure the feast is as frutiful as can be. Demiurge is grateful for that, and asks her how the future military looks. She says that it sounds like much of the usual crew is splitting up, but the world will probably be more fearful of herself and Moota. Her forces are going to make sure the Land of Joy and Marsha are safe. She says that she hasn't accounted for Demiurge himself, but he's sure that his aid will be greatly appreciated. The Dragon gets uncomfortable, and tells the lemur about the slumber. She seems surprised at that. Demiurge apologizes for the inconvenience, to which she says that everyone will probably be able to keep things in control even without him. But still... she's sorry to see him go. Demiruge says he's sorry to go, and thans her for her work. She swears that she's the one that should thank him: for his assistance, for Moota, and for the world they now look forwards to.
*Donner - Donner is standing at one of the tables near Exulta, the skunk having a small meal while looking on at the kitsune. He sees Demiurge, and greets him, telling him that he's not used to so many people in one place. Demiurge asks him how the Land of Joy is looking, to which Demiurge says that Exulta's preparing to open lines between the Land of Joy and the mainland. It sounds like people are going to be visiting, and her majesty is going to open her usual shenanigans to them. However, it sounds like more people are going to need to learn to fight, just in case, so he'll be one of the people to try and teach them. However, it sounds like her grace will make sure to compensate him. However, he asks him if he could maybe help. Demiurge tells him the uncomfortable truth about the slumber. Donner seems surprised, and asks him if he's serious. Demiurge nods, and Donner says that Exulta probably won't be happy. She may not seem like the girl to wear any emotion other than "party", but truth is she really cares for him. And he himsel really cares for him. What he means to say is that the Land of Joy will be missing a valuable member.
*Exulta - Exulta is sitting at one of the tables, Donner nearby, and gobbling up food and drinks. She sees the Dragon and waves towards him excitedly, telling him to take a seat and eat as well. This feast wouldn't be a thing without him. Demiurge thus sits down, and she remarks that this may not be her usual fare, but it's certainly somoething she's down for. She remarks that she thought those Egeans were a bunch of prudes, but if this is what they can make, then the Land of Joy may very well be fine with them. She then asks Demiruge what kind of party he's been looking forwards to. Demiurge is hesitant to answer, though she tells him that after everything he went through, he deserves to take a load off. Demiurge, however, tells her that he'll have to slumber soon. And he thus goes through the process. At that, she remarks that he got him to care about this world, just to disappear? Demiurge apologizes, to which she sighs and says she knows how important a good sleep once in a while is. She tells him that if that's how he wishes to relax, then he's perfectly fine to sleep the rest of their lives away. Odds are he probably deserves it more than anyone else on this planet.

With this, players are able to exit through the front gate. And once proceeding out there, the Dragon finds Sophia standing there, ready to greet him. When he approaches, she tells him he's free to sleep, she'll carry him off somewhere safe. Demiurge tries to walk as far to the border of the mainland as he can, though eventually, his stress has ebbed at him too much. He soon collapses, though Sophia's able to easily in one arm, extending her wings and flying off to the sea.

At this, players move on to the [[#Diverse Era|Diverse Era]]
===Diverse Era===
;Jaunus 12th

Demiurge blinks awake, and finds himself in a truly odd scene. He's in a flowery meadow on the peak of a plateau. And looking around, Demiurge spies that this is yet another island. He pondered to himself how he wound up here, when he remembered Sophia offering him aid. He also spies, around the bed of flowers, a section of them a significantly different color than the other, with an arrow pointing northwards. Demiurge realizes that this must be a message left to guide him back to the mainland. He decides to check around the island first, however, and discovers that there's no sign of any other being on this island. Having ascertained that he was indeed brought somewhere far away, he takes wing, and flies off, players free to explore around the world to understand what's become of it.
----
Players can uncover Hosha. And going there, they find the area to be fixed up into something new. The kingdom bricks have been torn down, leaving only a memorial pillar where the town square was. Instead, there stands a quaint village. Touching down, Demiurge finds an elder cat man, who seems surprised at the Dragon. Demiurge asks what happened with the ruins here, to which the cat says that it started a couple hundred years ago. After Decka was taken down, Egea claimed the ruins and decided to strip it down to make sure there's no sign of the terrible experiments of old. Other settlers decided to set up their own home here while remembering those that fought to delay the rise of the Conqueror.

Demiurge can't help but feel a little saddened, seeing such a familiar sight reduced to this. But, he supposes that it may be for the best.
----
Players can uncover Egea, where they find that the kingdom's grown bigger, and now boasts more worn trails that branch off in more directions. Looking into it, they find that the poverty situation appears to have grown in disparity, with richer rich and poorer poor. However, the general architecture shows that there are more emblems of the Dragon, some depicting him wrapping his wings protectively around nondescript mortals, and some depicting him hoisting the kingdom onto his back. And stepping to the main square, he can see a giant fountain. This depicts statues of himself and the party from the Conqueror Era together, jets of water pouring from them and down into the water at the statues' feet. 

Nearby, there is a seal lady sitting on a stone bench, her looking at the fancy fountain. She sees the Dragon, and looks between him and the statue. She asks himif he's the Dragon of 500 years ago, to which Demiurge replies that he is. She remarks that it's very interesting seeing him out here, and she asks him how he's doing. He says he's just woken up, and says that he wishes to know what's happened with Egea while he slept. She says that the kingdom's gotten so much bigger since Aunqiller went down. Several kingdoms were a-ok with alinging with them after they defeated her, so they've been able to share resources and expand. Their kingdom stands as a real powerhouse, not particularly because of its military, but because it's gotten plenty of allies. They're friends with Marsha, Loyst, the Land of Joy, and the new kingdom of '''Solata'''. Basically, they have the eastern edge of the mainland on their side. 

Demiurge is surprised at that, and asks if things are peaceful. She says that things are as peaceful as can be, though Echel's looing to get a bit powerful and is slowly gathering allies around the north. Demiurge asks if they're dangerous, to which she says no one's really sure. It's been a while since there's been any major skirmish among the nations, but for now, they're safe. Though, quality for the individuals could be better.
----
Flying over to the Land of Joy, players find that much of the interior structure is unchanged. However, it bears a resort out at the shore towards Loyst, complete with small huts around, people sunbathing, and various people in stages of dress/undress. Coming down, Demiurge comes to one of the huts, this one labeled '''Tourist Center'''. Curious, the Dragon peeks in, and sees a red panda guide. He's surprised at their appearance, and the Dragon asks what this is. The red panda asks who he is, and the Dragon introduces himself.

The guide quickly reads through some pamphlets, and realizes that this legend of the Dragon is real. He asks what brings him here, to which Demiurge replies that he's looking around to get a gauge of what's going on in the world. He's wondering what's going on here. The red panda says that a while ago, someone realized just how scenic this place is, and figured they could probably make some money off it. So, people between Loyst and the Land of Joy set up a profitable business that lets tourists enjoy the island. Demiurge asks if the residents are ok with it, to which the red panda says that they make sure every visitor is educated on being courteous. Demiurge asks about Exulta, and he explains that she's passed on and let someone else keep up the tradition of chief, and they've each been sure to keep the Dragon as a faithful figure in the island's lore.

Demiurge thanks him for the words, and decides to pull away.
----
Checking out Eshel, players find that the stone kingdom has grown, a large portion of the Western Strip covered in stone walls. It boasts metal weaponry within its walls, and pretty scary looking soldiers. Demiurge comes in, and the many people within are surprised at the appearance of him. There is not a lot of architecture around that regards the Dragon, or really much of the eastern side at all. Communicating around town, players learn that they too have been scared of the threat way in the past. So they spent time building up their defenses. The easterners have been busy with their own thing, and Eshel has been free to grow and grow.

The easterners have stand together and strong, and Eshel grew more and more weary about whatever they can do. So, they've been working on their own alliances to make sure they can stay safe should there be any issue. Demiurge asks why there would be an issue, to which the villagers seem convinced that it is in the world's nature to cannibalize each other. It's animal eat animal out here. Demiurge seems uncomfrotable at that, but he feels too tired to try and argue.
----
Over in Hertsi, players find that though the mountain is still shaved down, the old kingdom seems to be built back up, though not nearly as lavish as it was during the Weapons Era. Instead of metal and superior weapons, it's covered in stone. Investigating inside, players learn that the kingdom is attempting to stay neutral. Considering what all's happened in the past, they felt it necessary to serve as some sort of guard between the east and the west. However, truth be told, they can't help but feel like if there was ever a fight, they'd end up being the first to be destroyed. They don't have a lot of weaponry, but they should have enough to do some damage.
----
After investigating the many areas, Demiurge feels a light nearby. Looking over to the source, he sees Sophia's light, shining over at the Brosis Plains. He flies over, and sees the Pale Dragon again. She greets him, and explains that the Draconic Gardens are near the world. She says that a view from up there is much better than a view the planet itself offers. Demiurge looks across over the kingdoms curious, though Sophia assures him that he's seen what he needed to. She tells him to come along, the Gardens miss him and want to hold him if only for a little.

So, with a heavy heart, Demiurge spreads his wings. And then, the two flap, up and off the planet, and off into space, towards the giant structure floating in the void. The '''Draconic Gardens'''.
----
The two fly up and make it onto the lip of the grand platform. And where they stand, there's a pair of stone lounge chairs made big enough for the two of them, between them a small stone stool with goblets full of wine on either side. Sophia approaches one chair and recommends that Demiurge take the other seat. The bronze Dragon looked over the Gardens, feeling... overwhelmed. He thinks to himself how long ago he's been away from this realm, and how alien it all looks despite him growing up in it. Sophia somewhat impatiently taps the other lounge chair, rocking Demiurge free from his spell and prompting him to sit where she motioned.

Demiurge took steps towards it, and as he does, he feels off. He feels like these steps should be heavier or that he should have a bigger feeling than now, but he feels some slight dissociation. He walks more and more, before sitting back on the empty chair, now looking out at the planet he was just on. And for a bit, he can just stare, unaware of the slight slurping coming from Sophia as she's taken her goblet. She notices him staring, and remarks that it's quite a sight, that for as long as one remains on their planet, especially if they're young, it gets easy to lose the big picture.

She asks him if a part of him felt among them, or if he understood he was so much greater than them the whole time. Players can answer "I felt like one of them" or "I was divine, start and end". To the former, she says that that's also common in young ones, while saying that putting yourself among the lot of them makes it harder to see the bigger picture, because you limit yourself to the common. To the latter, she says that that's often been a hard part for young people: if they always consider themselves greater than the rest, then it'd be harder to care for the lot of them, because it becomes so much harder to empathize.

She then says that he can have a drink if he wishes, his body should be able to handle it. Demiurge seems suddenly aware of the goblet beside him, and so he reaches for it, before beginning to drink. The two drink more and more, before Sophia continues. She says that he probably realizes why he's here. He's gone through so much and worked through an era that could make or break their world. So, having gone through as much as he has, and now seeing what's become of it, she needs to ask: How does he feel about the world he's made? Demiurge gives pause, and lowers the goblet, him looking down at it in consideration, an unreadable expression on his face.

Players have the choice to say "...I love it" or "...I hate it". If he says the former, he begins to say it, and a smile begins to dress his face. He says that he's seen a lot of the bad things this world can bring it, but... but he knows that world can be good, he saw it. And, even with the pain brought on, it looks like everyone's finding something to be happy about. If he says the latter, he starts to talk, and tears begin to drip down his cheeks. He says that he got rid of the worst guys, and even after fixing everything, everyone's still scared, everyone still thinks they'll kill each other, and his body was used like a mining vein! He chokes a bit, struggling to hold the goblet, and hunches over as he sobs, Sophia gently clasping his back.

After that, she says that the first times are always the roughest for the dears. It's something that usually gets better the more you do it. You usually know how to rule better, you usually know how to roll with the tragedies, and you usually know how to pull others out of it or to restart elsewhere. Demiurge asks how anyone's supposed to get over tragedies, to which Sophia explains that all mortals are finite, all suffering on the planets will be finite, while the Dragons are infinite. That's one of those cases where you have to learn to either be empathetic, or to remember your own divinity. And then, she says that she has one more question for him.

Dragons can go from planet to planet, free to start and stop life as they wish, or to let it go on without any divinity. She also warns that, given his age, she won't be terribly necessary in watching over him, so her visits to him will come less and less. So, having seen everything he has, having done all he has, having endured as much as he has, she tells him that no one would begrudge him for leaving them. So, she must ask him: Does he wish to continue on their planet? There's a pregnant pause as Demiurge contemplates, him statue still as he looks at the planet he'd been on for hundreds of years. And so, the player has two options: "I want to stay" or "I want to leave".
*At the former, he decides that after everything, no matter how he feels, he should continue to see them on. If players say they love the world, he declares that even in despair, they chose to better their situation, and he wants to see that more and more. If players say the hate the world, Demiurge says that after all of the work he put in, he wants to save them from themselves. Sophia nods in understanding. As such, she stands up and says she understands. Demiurge stands up, and Sophia tells him to be careful and keep a broad mind. Demiurge suddenly goes forwards to hug her, Sophia hugging him back. Demiurge thanks her for everything, the pale Dragon holding him tight. They then split and share a moment of nothingness, before Demiurge steps near the lip of the Draconic Gardens. He raises his wings, and then flies, going back down to the planet he's led to the modern era, boasting more knowledge and a greater understanding than he once had.
*To the latter, he decides that he can't take anymore. If players say he loves the world, he decides they'd be better without him for a while, seeing what his mere body did to it. If players say he hates the world, after everything, he says he can't look at it without feeling sick. Sophia says that that's perfectly fine. Sophia nods in understanding. He's free to relax on the Gardens for longer, and Demiurge brings his arms up, as if wanting to embrace her, and she hugs him. He hangs his head and Sophia walks into the Gardens, prompting Demiurge to follow. And she tells him not to worry, these things happen. Besides, the planet should live on well enough now. With that, Demiurge gives the planet one more look, before following Sophia into the gardens of paradise, resting quarters for divinity.

And with that, camera still on the planet, the credits roll.
==Ideology==
===Early===
;Jusis 12th

Demiurge steps forwards more and more, and looks upon a strange settlement. There, he sees a truly odd sight, a small village with a set of circular walls around it, banners hanging over them with the symbol of a dragon upon them. Said walls are tall and wooden, and within the confines are cabins. On top of the walls are strange devices resembling telescopes, albeit with crystal lenses as opposed to normal glass. Demiurge approaches the openings of one of the walls, and as he does, a pair of men in gowns, one a fox one a raccoon, see the Dragon approach.

They ask who he is, to which he introduces himself. And hearing that, the two guards are surprised. The fox wonders if he really could be him, and the raccoon remarks that he looks exactly as the text describes the Dragon. They ask where he came from, and answers that he awoke from the soil over "there", and came here to check out how people are doing now. They again exchange a glance, and then say that they should bring him to the Oracle. Demiurge is grateful for that, and asks what an Oracle is. However, they lead him in before thinking to answer. 

And within the walls, he gets a closer look at the wooden buildings around the general area. There are a few that seem built for housing multiple people, and a few that seem almost like libraries. There also stand a few picnic areas and gazebos. This area seems generally more relaxed than the Stone Age did. Eventually, he's led to a much larger building within the center of the town, this one brandishing the Dragon's symbol prominently. The two men tell him that he stands before the Draconian Church of '''Sinnoa'''. They say that within is the Oracle, and that she will help him however he wishes. He thanks them for the assistance, and the two of them thus returns to the gate. 

Demiurge turns to the large building and tries to imagine just what those neanderthals have been up to after he and the rest of the intelligentsia defeated the Lord of the Land. So, he opened up the door, and inside saw a very large room with several benches lined up, arranged such that those that sat on them would face the rear wall of the room. Said rear wall boasted a mural depicting the plains with the intelligentsia standing low while a Draconian image hung over, lending them a hand. And standing in front of the mural was a swan in a blue dress, the Draconian emblem sewn into it. She saw the Dragon, and smiled warmly, saying that she cannot believe he is back.
----
Demiurge and the swan are at the very back of the church, before the mural. Demiurge remarks that this village doesn't look anything like what he's seen before, and the swan curtseys, thanking him. She says that Meila's helped start the fire, and the rest of them have stoked the flame to what it stands now. Now she, '''Onah''', stands as the latest in leading this place. Demiurge then remarks that now that she brought them up, what's happened with the intelligentsia? And, what's up with this village, Sinnoa?

She says that 500 years ago, it's said that Meila led the neanderthals after being emboldened by the Dragon prior to his passing. She taught them about the importance of widening the mind. She tells them that they are, as a people, meant to achieve a goal together, and that they are too special for something as material as what the others suggested. Surviving off the land, building until you can't build any more, making an immortal art piece, claiming as much of the land as possible... Any animal can accomplish that, so surely, they must be meant for something else. So, she decided to work on a society meant for the pursuit of this mission.

They've been working on their magical work, they've built outdoorsy places for meditation, and they've developed means of shutting out the exterior for reflection. Hence, this Draconian Church was made, in the name of the Dragon. And now that he is here, he can help them find that. Demiurge seems awed by that description. He says that he'd love to help, but he isn't so sure he knows either. Onah pauses, and asks him if he's certain. He nods and says that, for some reason, he never really thought to ask the Dragons that kind of a question.

Onah rears back and holds her beak curious. She supposes that if Demiurge himself is unsure, then they'll have to work together to figure out what the purpose of a life is. She thus stands, and extends a hand to the Dragon. She asks that he help them in this journey, and Demiurge thus shakes her wing. She then says that they'll perform their work soon. Demiurge asks if she's suspecting anyone soon, to which she replies that processions are held at the end of the week. So, they'll come into the church three days from now. For now, she asks that he helps her clean up around.
----
So, the next few hours are spent making sure the church is organized. This involves putting various books in place, through which the Dragon gets to learn of how the people of old regarded him as a shining beacon, a messiah, and Meila wanted them all to keep his memory preserved. So, he himself became a symbol of their mission to achieving their goal. He puts the books away and sweeps up cobwebs, and in the process works alongside a lizard guy in a white robe. He introduces himself to Demiurge, saying he's '''Sherebi'''. He greets him as well, and asks him what he does around here, to which he explains that he's helping out his big sister here with her work. Demiurge tells him that he'd love to talk more to him later, and Sherebi answers that he'll be more than happy to.

So, they keep on their work, cleaning the place up and soon getting it nice and presentable. Onah thus leads them to a corner of the building, where, behind locked doors, there is a fair few beds set up. Onah says that they have this ready for those that become unable to keep their homes, but for now there's spaces for each of them. And so, the lot of them go to their beds and rest, Demiurge just thinking about what's happened in the time he's been away, and about how they're going to find out the purpose of this life. He personally wishes that his caretaker was around for him to simply ask her, but he supposes that she'd want him to do this himself.

;Jusis 13th

On this day the group wakes back up. Onah says that there are two days until they have procession, and as such they need to prepare their material. And as such, she asks that the two of them head out to iron out their teachings. Demiurge asks how they'll do that, to which she says that going out into the nature can help open up one's third eye. So, she hopes he'll tag along with her on this mission anyways. Besides, the residents could use some more meat. She takes up a sheathed rapier and places it upon her, and with that, players are tasked with tagging alongside Onah to outside Sinnoa.
----
The two exit the settlement and make their way to the nearby set of woods near the mountains. They progress in, Onah saying that as they walk, they should talk. She asks him about life before the world was made, if there was life. Demiurge says that the Dragons have existed before this planet. Heck, before any planet was made the Dragons were brought into existence. These Dragons are known as Elder Dragons, and he was trained under one of them. She asks who that caretaker was, to which he calls her '''Sophia''', and describes her as one of the kindest people. She's been so uplifting and has worked endlessly to keep several of the Dragons up to snuff. Most Dragons get a planet when they're older than him, but he begged a lot, and she eventually complied, giving him his own planet. At that, he motions vaguely towards the plan they stand on.

She remarks that that's quite interesting. She asks him what made ruling over a world so appealing to him, and at that, he gives pause, thinking about what got him here. However, before he can properly answer, some beast can be heard within the foliage. They turn, Onah drawing her rapier, when a bear comes forwards. Seeing it, she points the weapon towards it, and tells Demiurge they'll have to continue the conversation later. With that, players are forced into a battle.

Players battle the '''Grizzly Bear''', and in the process, learn about Onah herself. She wields Light magic, and proves to be quite agile. She's a bit of a glass cannon, relying on high damage and agility, though her defenses are low. With her swift movement and her magical attack, players are able to defeat the bear. With it down, Onah sighs and sheathes the rapier. She tells the Dragon that he did well fighting, though she should've expected as much. Demiurge thanks her for the words. She says that they'll have to keep on their work, and she'll have to learn more about how the Dragons work.
----
Players are thusly tasked with heading deeper into the forest with the goal of taking care of another enemy, and bringing their meat home. They're also tasked wtih coming to a patch of the woods to harvest some fruits/vegetables. This involves going to a certain part of the map to gather material. After gathering material, Onah will think to ask Demiurge a few questions. 
*First, she asks him how many worlds have been made, to which he answers that he doesn't really now. The Elder Dragons were far, far older than him, and even his own parents. And in that time, many worlds were made, but even attempting to count them doesn't convey that for there've been a fair few that were destroyed. Onah asks what invited the destruction of those worlds, to which Demiurge explains that he tried asking, though the Dragons he asked would say that they'd hope he'd never learn what invites that.
*Second, she asks him what worlds he knows of that exist, and if he's seen a perfect world. Demiurge answers that he's gotten very vague information. He's heard some Dragons regard them as happy or sad or anywhere in between. And as far as he can tell, there hasn't been a perfect world yet. Onah asks if they could possibly make that, to which Demiurge says that he'd more than certainly love to try.
*Lasty, she asks him if he's alone here. Demiurge, however, says that as long as Dragons are willing to listen to the people of the planet, they're never alone. They can always rely on the people of the world to help guide their decision and make things better for everyone. To that end, Onah asks him what if people decide something different from normally, to which Demiurge says that the Dragons have to weigh the options and decide on their own which is better for everyone. He's heard of a few Dragons that had to go through several changes of their own. If he gets really stuck, he's sure his caretaker can show up to help.

After all of that, the Onah says that she thinks they got everything they need for a little while at least. She thanks Demiurge for his assistance here, and the Dragon says that he's more than happy to lend the mortals a hand. She thus says that they'll make their way home, and so they begin heading back.
----
The duo makes it back to Sinnoa, hauling their material with them. Onah directs Demiurge towards a building within the settlement, said building boasting the emblem of a fork and knife. And inside is a family of individuals: a genet man, an owl lady, a genet teen daughter, and an owl teen son. They greet the group, Onah greeting them as well. She introduces them (in order as mentioned previously) '''Bob''', '''Marge''', '''Kendel''', and '''Devan'''. She says that the four of these help run the '''Food Distribution Store''' of this settlement. They store the material they gather, and help to distribute it to the people of Sinnoa. 

Bob says that he's grateful for their work here, and it seems like The Oracle was able to earn more material than usual. Onah owes it to Demiurge. The Dragon's already proving quite helpful, and Demiurge is a bit bashful. Marge says that the four of them will carry it out from here, and that the two of them can do whatever they wish. With that, the duo leaves the Food Distribution Store, and Onah remarks that it's getting a bit late. She suggests they should check and make sure that the church is clean. Demiurge asks if they really have to, saying that the last time it took them a fair while, though she says that ultimately they should make sure their home upkeep is in top shape. 

With that, the Dragon is brought back to the church, where he, the lizard, and the swan work together to make sure everything's a ok. And with enough work, they soon wrap up, and turn in for the night. They thusly sleep.

;Jusis 14th

The next day comes up, and church group wakes again. They thusly step out, at which point Demiurge finally takes note of one of the trails heading out. Demiurge decides to inquire Onah about it if food gathering and whatnot seems to be up to so few people. At that, Onah explains that a while ago, people thought that they'd be able to obtain more knowledge by finding more of the world. So, they've decided to head out. This particular trail leads towards the east. Demiurge asks how they're doing, to which the swan says that they appear to still be doing ok, they've been sending letters to and fro. 

Demiurge then asks how they'll attend church, to which she says that those over there should be learning the way of righteousness in their own way. She just hopes that they are making progress in their endeavor. Demiurge hopes so too, and asks if they should visit sometime. Onah answers that they could definitely try, though deep down she fears that if they bring the Dragon to them, they'll never let him come back here. Demiurge supposes that that is a bit of an issue. Still, he thinks that if they're using him to learn, he should probably be there to help. 

Onah says they can probably try later. For now, though, the food distributors could use a hand distributing. They are just four people after all. With that, players spend the time transferring food, bringing it around town and getting to interact with a few of the locals. And after enough work, evening's come. 
----
Night comes, and after cleaning up, Onah, Sherebi, and Demiurge are together in the main hall of the church. There, she says that they're hosting one of their processions tomorrow. Seeing as Demiurge is new here, processions are meant to help commune about the purpose they all should search for. This involves discussions of what is right, what is wrong, and debating why they are right and wrong. Onah says that these are held weekly and that they are meant to help the residents potentially reach an understanding they couldn't before, though Sherebi admits that it tends to make people confused moreso. Onah supposes that the divine themself might be able to help with that.

Demiurge rubs his shoulder nervously, saying that he'll certainly try. The swan nods in appreciation, saying that she hopes that they'll achieve this shortly. With that, players wrap up theh day, going to bed.

;Jusis 15th

On this day, the procession is about to start. And several of the villagers come to the church, coming to the doors while a pair of guards stand ready to protect them. Meanwhile, the main trio are standing at the head of the main hall in preparation for the oncoming speech. Onah tells Demiurge that those that come in are to be quiet until given an opportunity to. She says that, despite his status, Demiurge himself should follow suit. Whenever his glorious voice is needed, she'll be sure to reach out to him. Demiurge nods in understanding, before Onah declares towards the front doors that they are ready. And with that, the doors open, and the people of Sinnoa come in. 

The various people sit down at the various pews, and the lot of them looked over the Dragon, awed. Onah cleared her throat and greeted the lot of them. She says that as of a few short days ago, they've received a brand new villager, and a very important one. Among them is Demiurge, the Dragon himself, who helped create their modern society. She says that he'll work alongside them to help guide them in their future. And following that, she says it's time to go onto the debating.

She tells them last they talked, they'd proposed the idea that achieving happiness for all was the way of life. At that, she says that it's time to ponder whether or not happiness is the end goal for those that live. She says that not everyone may be in total agreement, so she asks that those that disagree speak up and say why they feel this isn't what they should seek. At that, a monkey raises a hand. He says that a happy people sounds nice, but would a happy people be able to go anywhere after that? As in, when everyone's happy, what goes on after that? Onah turns to the Dragon and says that the wise one should say what he thinks, Demiurge seems surprised and tries to think on how to respond to the critique. Players can answer "People fight to maintain happiness" or "People stay happy". To the former, Onah agrees that there are likely elements of the world that impede on their happiness, from the harsh elements to the wild and the Monsters that threaten them. To the latter, Onah agrees that the pursuit of purpose has a destination, if you are to reach where you intend to go you aren't to go beyond it after all. 

Following that, someone else decides to ask a question. That person, a red panda lady, asks them if it is indeed the end goal, what will it even look like? How will they be sure that everyone is even happy? Onah prompts Demiurge again, who tries to think of an answer. Players can answer "When no one has to struggle for happiness" or "When the world doesn't fight them for happiness". At the former, Onah says that that makes sense, that everyone should be able to feel happiness and not have to struggle for it. To the latter, she supposes that with the ever present magic in the world, maybe the world itself is challenging them to achieve this, and will give them what they seek by ceasing their struggles.

Following that, Kendel from before raises a hand. She says that they have to all do stuff to keep the happiness to everyone. She points out that the Oracle has to get stuff, the guards have to stave off creatures, and so on. So, she asks if people are intended to work to keep themselves and others alive, then how'll everyone be happy? Onah thus turns to Demiurge, who thinks of the next answer. He thusly answers "Happiness is not necessarily a lack of work" or "Happiness comes from multiple forms". And at that, the crowd is curious, with one of them asking that in that case, it becomes even harder to understand what could signify a truly happy world.

Onah agrees that that does make things difficult, but since the dawn of time they've been left with a world that they can struggle in. If struggle is what they are born in, then struggle is what they are to overcome. Their journey to their purpose is likely to be long and arduous, and they likely won't see their goal for a long time. So for this, each of them will work together to achieve what they wish to, and thusly to see what happiness is or isn't and whether they can get their purpose. And unless they can find a way to argue it, they'll accept that they as a people should keep searching for happiness.

With that, the procession goes on.
----
Later that day, the people are making their way out of the church. Onah says that she thinks that went well, and tells Demiurge he did well. The Dragon says that he feels like he hasn't really answered anything, to which the swan said that they don't always reach answers, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. Demiurge then asks if they don't always get answers, why ask then? Onah pauses, before answering that just because there isn't someone to answer, that doesn't mean they can't reach an answer of their own. For now, though, they must keep seeking an answer.

As they talk, an ibex guard comes up to Onah, bowing to her and getting her attention. She asks him what's going on, and he tells her that the deliveryman came by with mail, but found something terrible on the way over. Clawmarks as long as blades are etched into the trail between here and the village far off. Onah's eyes widen, and she says that this cannot be allowed. She turns to Demiurge, and asks him if he remembers the creatures that'd slain him and assailed his friends. The Dragon says he does, and at that the swan tells him that those Monsters still remain with them, though sparingly. They've had to keep their distance from them, but if they're showing themselves, and so close to the travel path, they must do anything in their power to stop them.

She says it's late now, but tomorrow him, her, and Sherebi must go out and keep the path clear. She tells the Dragon to rest up, and prepare for a dangerous day tomorrow.

;Jusis 16th

This next morning, Onah, Demiurge, and Sherebi have made their way to the western gate. Onah explains that this way will lead them to the other settlement, and that according to that deliveryman, Monster tracks are upon it. So, they'll have to go out and investigate it, and maybe figure out where those foes may've headed off. She also says that if they're not careful, those Monsters will tear them apart. Hence, they bring along Sherebi. The lizard says that he's practiced in the art of restorative magic, and says that if the need arises, he'll be sure to restore them.

Demiurge appreciates the help, and says that it's time to head out. And thus, they make their way west...
----
The group makes their way along the '''Sinnoa-Tula''' trail, a well-worn trail that goes straight for a while before curving northwards slightly. The group follows the trail, and after a short bit of walking, they uncover, indeed, claw marks. Looking at them, Demiurge in particular feels uncomfortable, thinking back to what those things had done back in the day. Onah says that now they have to follow the trail to see where the Monsters are. Sherebi asks if they should, pointing out that these creatures are really dangerous, though she says that if they don't, someone else will be assailed by the creature that left these. 

They thus begin following the trail, leading northwest off the trail. As they head off that way, however, they can hear some hissing nearby. They turn, and see several serpents approaching. The group brings out their weaponry, Onah saying that they need to act fast. The group is ambushed, the serpents allowed a turn to wail on the group and almost certainly poison a few of them. However at this point, players are taught about Sherebi himself. He wields several restorative options, from ailment curing to decent healing and even to reviving magic. He also has limited access to damage magic, his sole damaging spell being a Water spell. With their combined efforts, Sherebi is able to keep the group good and is able to defeat the serpents. 

The group pants and pants after all of that. Demiurge remarks that those creatures were pretty dangerous. Onah says that it was, but Sherebi more than helped them out. She says that his healing magic helped keep their venom at bay, though the lizard says that he was only doing his job. Onah assures that he should feel pride in his work. Following that, she says that they have more work to do. They still have to make sure that the Monster, or Monsters, won't be able to threaten this trail.

;Jusis 16th - Jusis 24th

With this, players are tasked with looking northwards off of the Sinnoa-Tula trail. That's the way the claw marks face, and players will have to investigate that way. And as they head northwards, they're led into the '''Wild Plains''', a wide, sprawling pains with rolling hills, small patches of woods, and patches of water that ferals hang out at. However, upon seeing the scene, Onah remarks that the plains look much more sparse than usual. Demiurge says he hasn't had the chance to check this out before, and asks what it's like. Sherebi says that sometimes people have gone here to see the many different ferals interact among each other to hopefully get a better understanding of life. Usually the amounts of ferals here is larger than a village. But right now there's less than Sinnoa's population. 

Demiurge wonders if that might be about the Monster, to which Onah says she can imagine very few alternatives. She says that that's only more reason to deal with the creature. Those Monsters are interfering with the way of life and are interfering with their passage to betterment. Sherebi says that they will eliminate the threat, Demiurge nodding in agreement. Thus, they press into the landscape, needing to investigate the clawmarks to see wherever it'd ended up in. And in the process, players have to be careful as they deal with the creatures that remain on the field. It can be a little daunting given the current team, but players shouldn't have to worry too much as they eventually make their way to nearly the far end of the Wild Plains. 

There, they see the clawmarks have led into a patch of trees, though as they do, Onah looks carefully at the mess. She says that the marks here look significantly more frantic than usual. The other group looks over it curious, and Sherebi does mention that it looks like the owner of the marks sped up their pace here. Demiurge wonders what that could be, to which Onah says she doesn't know. But odds are that the Monster they're facing is hyped up on adrenaline. She says that these creatures are already very dangerous on their own, they all have to be careful as they approach. She warns Demiurge to progress only if he feels prepared.

With that, players press into the patch of trees.
----
They press into the woods. And as they do, they hear the sounds of metal clashing. Demiurge asks what that is, and Onah answers that can only be another individual. She says that they need to speed up. Thus, they race in more and more. They make their way to the source of the noise, where they see a frightening sight. They spy, of all things, a gray-furred owl lady wearing red monk garb with the Dragon's visage sewn into it battling a dinosaur, this one boasting a bit of fur and claws as long as swords. The owl is seen swinging a katana to try and parry blows from the opponent, her struggling with each hit. Then, one hit in particular sends her flying back, the rest of the party rushing in to help her. 

Onah addresses the owl as '''Elatka''', and asks what she's doing out here. She says that her guards have reported sightings of this creature along the trail between Tula and Sinnoa, and she went out to meet it. But in the end she ended up getting chased by the creature out here. Sherebi says that that creature is focusing on them, and Onah nods in affirmation. She tells everyone to bring up arms, and prepare for a fight. 

With that, players are forced into a fight with the '''Therizinosaurus'''. The creature seems to solely rely on physical power, and occasionally uses a skill that boosts its chance to crit. In addition, it occasionally uses Wind magic for damaging multiple party members. In the meantime, players are also introduced to a new party member: Elatka. She's primarily a sword-person, using the katana to deal Slashing damage, and having skills that either boost her Strength or her Evasion. She also has access to minor healing, surprisingly enough. Thankfully, with the evasive monk and the rest of the team's work, they're able to defeat the Monster. The Therizinosaurus lets out a death groan, and collapses in defeat. 

The party sighs and sheathes their respective weaponry, Onah turning towards Elatka. She says that she was really reckless here. If they hadn't come in when they did, she probably would've died. She, however, points out that more people would've died if she hadn't lured the creature away. At this point, Demiruge can say "That was pretty dangerous" or "That was really cool". TO the former, Elatka admits it was, but she's sure it was worth it for the sake of everyone> To the latter, the owl can't help but blush, rub the back of her head, and thank him.

Then, she realizes that this is ''the'' Dragon. She asks why he hasn't come over, to which he says he was helping with the procession over in Sinnoa. Elatka asks if he really helped with that "Strive for Happiness" doctrine, to which the Dragon asks if there's a problem. The owl says that of course there's a problem. He'd now it if he came to Tula. Onah says that she doesn't understand their desire to fight them on the righteousness of Happiness, to which Elatka says that Happiness isn't a way of life; it's a goal. To profess that as the purpose of life is to say the purpose of life is merely to find an end, while she and Tula seek to find purpose in the ongoing life.

Demiurge, however, points out that now's not a good time to argue about this. He says that if she really wants, he can come over to Tula. Onah says she doesn't agree, but if this arguing is to end, then she supposes this is a necessary step. Elatka says that he can go with the swan for now, but soon she would like to see him over so that she may speak to him about her doctrine. Demiurge agrees. With that, the group makes their way back to the trail, and splits in order to go to their respective villages.
----
Following that, players have free time until they get to the deadline.

'''Jusis 25th''' 

The next day came, and the party woke yet again. They stepped out, and Onah and Sherebi would find Demiurge was currently gathering some provisions. Onah asks what he's doing, to which he says that he's going to make his way out. Onah asks if this is about Tula, to which he solemnly answers that it is. He apologizes for this, though the swan takes a deep breath and says that she should be apologizing. She supposed she was irrational earlier, trying to keep him away from there. But any ideology worth its salt would survive contact with opponents. She should've let him go a while ago so that he may learn of it himself.

He thanks her, and she says that he cannot go alone. She herself will have to remain, as Sinnoa's Oracle. She tells Sherebi to keep him safe, to which he nods and goes up to him. The lizard thus stands next to the Dragon, and he says that he'll find his way home later. Onah nods, thanking him for his service, and waits for his return. And with that, the two of them begin making their way out, Onah watching them for a short while before turning back to the church.

And thus, Demiurge and Sherebi exit the village, the Dragon preparing himself for the next leg of his journey.
===Midway===
The duo is making their way along the trail, and as they do, Demiurge asks if they'll face anything. Sherebi says that the trail is usually very clear. The local fauna tend to recognize the trail to be that of greater creatures, and thus stay away. The Dragon supposes that makes sense, and so they keep on walking. As they do, he asks Sherebi how he ended up becoming Onah's coworker, to which he says that he never got to meet his birth mother. Apparently he'd been left there, and so Onah's parents took him on alongside her. They ended up passing away, and now the two of them run the church at once. 

Demiurge supposes that sounds nice, and they keep on walking. And after walking for a long, long while, the sun starting to set, they can see the new settlement. The area boasted tall red walls with red gates topped with a straight arch. And inside were more Japanese-styled buildings. The far end of the village borders on the shoreline, so its back is to the water. This is '''Tula'''. And as they go in, the duo notice that the many people around are doing more work than they usually see people at home do. There are more farmers, more crafters, and several seem to be working out for the sake of it. 

Demiurge wonders what's going on here, to which the owl from the other day comes, greeting the Dragon. She says she's glad to see him here, and Demiurge asks why everyone's working so hard. Elatka says that this is all a part of their ideology: to exist with purpose and brandish that purpose proudly. Sherebi says that it looks like these guys are just working pointlessly, to which Elatka says that she didn't expect him to understand. Either way, if they are so doubtful, then they need merely wait for a short while. She will hold a procession in four days, upon Jusis 29th. 

Either way, she has housing for them. She apologizes to Sherebi, saying that she'd anticipated on the Dragon arriving, but not on a guest. She then offers him some gold, saying that they have an inn nearby he can rent out. This gold should last for the four days at the very least. Sherebi thanks her, and looks towards Demiurge, asking if he'll be ok alone with her. Demiurge is sure that he has nothing to worry about. With that, the two part, Demiurge following along Elatka. On the way, she asks him about himself, in particular to how he grew up and, well, where he came from. 

Demiurge thus talks about the Draconic Gardens, where he was born among Dragons, where his parents already went to another world by the time he gained sapience. By that time he was being cared for by this great Elder Dragon, Sophia, and how she and other Dragons told him about creating worlds and life. He grew very interested, and though he was younger than most that started creating worlds, Sophia arranged it so that he could get a world his own, this one. Elatka remarks that that is quite interesting. She asks him if he came to learn why they did it, to which he says that he never really found that out for himself. The owl supposes that in that case he'll be free to help them figure that out. 

They soon make it to the edge of Tula, towards the sandy beach at the very edge. There, Demiurge sees a fairly big building, somewhat similar to the church back in Sinnoa. Said building is red and has a multi-layered roof of shrinking segments. And the front door has the image of the Dragon upon it. Elatka introduces this as Tula's own church, where they debate the proper way to live life on this world. There's a room inside meant for him. The duo those goes in, and the front room is fairly similar to the church of old, except instead of a mural, it features an open space that allows people inside to look out onto the scenery outside, looking across the vast sea and allowing the sounds of the waves to gently fill the room. Demiurge also takes notice of some drapes lining the room brandishing that familiar emblem.

She leads him up a set of stairs and to the upper floor, before bringing him to a room with a new sign over it, another symbol of the Dragon. She opens up the door, and inside is a very nice-looking room designed with a better-looking bed than back at Sinnoa, and a channel built into the ground with water running through it, creating a very soft noise in the room. Elatka says that the bedrooms in this church are designed with comfort in mind, and she hopes that he can appreciate it. Demiurge says he's sure he will, and thus the owl exits the room. Demiurge approaches the bed and lays down in it, and he's beginning to wonder just what Elatka could mean about this ideology she's speaking of.

;Jusis 26th - Jusis 28th

For this time, players have free time. Sherebi and Elatka are currently usable party members, and in the meantime, players can raise social links, make preparations for the party, and work on sidequests and whatnot. And throughout it, players continue to see members of Tula working, from the eldest man to the youngest child. 

The process keeps on, until the group eventually makes it to the night of the 28th. There, Elatka reminds Demiurge and Sherebi of their procession tomorrow. There, they'll be discussing their ideology, weighing whether or not their path is right, and since one of Sinnoa is here to challenge it, they may actually be able to do battle with their words. Sherebi says that he'll be sure to listen carefully to refute her, the owl saying that he can certainly try. She turns to Demiurge and says that she especially wants him to pay attention. No offense to the lizard, but she has this gut feeling that his own opinions might carry more weight than others. Demiurge says that he'll try to be mindful, to which Elatka says that she hopes he will. 

For now, though, she says that it's time to rest, and that she'll see them tomorrow.

;Jusis 29th

The next day comes, and with it, the many citizens of Tula are starting to gather around the church. And within, Elatka is seen communicating with Demiurge, giving him instructions to what Onah gave during their procession. And there, Sherebi asks her what he's to do, to which she says he'll sit alongside the other citizens and be free to weigh in on their discussion. With that, the lizard goes to one of the pews, while the owl goes up to the main altar, Demiurge following suit. He takes a deep breath, and readies himself. And then, a skinny monkey man in monk robes opens up the door, and in comes the many citizens. 

They begin sitting around at the various pews, Elatka looking over each of them as they enter. Once everyone's settled in and the door is closed again, she greets each of them. She says that once more they have come to discuss ideology, only this time, they've got a very special guest with them. They probably saw them earlier this week, and she's happy that the Dragon that helped bring their world to fruition is among them. Demiurge waves to them, and he gets a few oos and ahs. Following that, she says that they've been vague with the current ideology, but here, Demiurge will be able to learn about it in full. 

With that, she tells the villagers that they've been arguing the point of life: to make sure that all that live live their lives with as much effort as possible, to make sure they always live with the intention of testing their limits til they can exceed them. Thus, they work and work and work. Sherebi furrows his brow and thus raises a hand, ready to debate. Elatka tells the group that this here is a resident of Sinnoa, who graciously accompanied Demiurge on his way over. Either way, she asks Sherebi what his concern is. The lizard says that they cannot expect all life to gravitate towards work! Are they meant to work all the time? Even when they are too young or old to work? The owl thus turns to Demiurge to ask for him to input, and players are thusly given another choice: "We've had to work from the dawn of time" or "We need to work to survive". 

Elatka elaborates on that, saying that the nature of life is work. If the intelligentsia of old didn't work, they wouldn't be here today. Sherebi says that if that's the way life's been, then surely that means they still need to strive towards something different, else they would've achieved their life goal by now. Elatka turns to Demiurge, who can now answer again: "Work is not a stagnant process" or "All our work has room to grow". Elatka affirms Demiurge's words, saying that they've been refining old processes for a long time now. If they've not achieved their life goal now, then they need to grow into that life goal, to eventually achieve a work that'll satisfy the divine that put them here. 

After that, Sherebi says that they cannot be certain that work is what one needs to fulfil a life purpose. He's positive that happiness is far more likely the goal. At that, Elatka asks if every person in his home can sit around and do nothing? If there are no workers. The lizard sheepishly answers no, but says they can try and work towards that. However, she turns to Demiurge for another answer: "Someone's always had to work" or "One can't just sit around and live life". Either way, Elatka affirms his choice. He says that any functioning society will require people to work to keep all the parts running. Someone needs to get food, someone needs to build the houses, someone needs to keep out the Monsters... someone '''needs''' to work.

She says that like it or not, work will always be a part of life. Happiness, meanwhile, is a reward, a state of not needing to work. Even a Happy society needs people to work, and that none of them can get away with just being happy all the time. Thus, she declares it illogical for Happiness to be the ultimate goal of all life, because the very nature of survival requires them to work. And then, the group notices that it's significantly darker. They look back and can see the sun starting to set. Elatka supposes that they've talked long enough, and tells the participants that they are all dismissed.
----
After that, Demiurge, Elatka, and Sherebi are meeting up. The sword woman tells Sherebi that it was nice to have a challenger for her ideology. He says that he appreciates the gratitude, but he's just feeling funny. The owl says that he's merely grappling with an opposing concept, and he's probably trying to denounce it outright. She's looking forwards to eventually speaking to him again to potentially discuss further, before turning to the Dragon. She says that he's had a chance to listen to both sides, and right now, she's curious as to what he thinks the proper ideology is. Thus, players are able to answer "Happiness", "Work", or "I'm not sure".

Either way, Elatka supposes there's still more debating to be had. Eventually, the monkey from before comes up to the group, and says that he's cleaned up the place, and she thanks him for all his work. She says that it's late, and they're now ready to rest. She gives Sherebi some more gold for the inn, and thus they each go to bed, albeit a little uncertain about what he should settle on, now presented with this new ideology.

;Jusis 30th

The next day, Demiurge wakes up, and he makes his way outside. And when out, he meets Sherebi. The lizard says that he's been thinking about what Elatka said, and Demiurge asks what he thinks. The lizard says that he's probably not smart enough to properly argue it. He's sure that if they can get Onah over here then she'll be able to take care of the owl's points. Demiurge supposes that that's definitely a possibility. If players decided to choose "Work" before, Sherebi asks him if he truly thinks that that owl's making the right points, that he truly thinks life should be dedicated to working. The Dragon answers that he's honestly not sure. 

Either way, Sherebi thinks that the two of them should head over to Sinnoa. With that, the duo begin moving. Though before they do, the monkey that's been seen alongside the group approaches them, asking them if they're leaving. Sherebi answers that they are, and the monkey says that Elatka's enjoyed having them over. She hopes that they can keep in contact. Sherebi says that he's sure they will, they still have to argue the point. The monkey nods and wishes to see them later, though offers to lend them a hand as they leave. The lizard says that that would be lovely, though Demiurge asks if he's allowed to. He answers that he is. Thus, '''Eluso''' joins the party.
----
The trio are making their way along the Sinnoa-Tula trail. They walk and walk, each uncomfortably quiet. Sherebi himself looks like he wants to speak up, though he can't really muster the strength to say something. Eventually, however, they hear something from nearby. The group turns, and sees some dangerous-looking warthogs rushing them. Sherebi says that they need to run, though Eluso says that they can't outrun them, and if they try they'll merely leave their backs exposed to them. The monkey reaches into his satchel, before pulling out a line of thin wire. He holds it, before brandishing it almost like a whip, and facing the enemies.

With that, players are forced into a battle with the '''Warthog Horde'''. And through this, players get to learn about Eluso's own abilities in combat. With that garrot wire, he's able to deal Slash damage on enemies. He also has access to Dark magic, some minor Restoration magic, and instant kill magic. With his unsettling arts, players will find themselves able to overwhelm the various warthogs. With them beaten, the monkey sighs and puts his weapon away. He says that the creatures of this world still seek to punish them, and so they must mete them out swiftly. He asks Sherebi if he truly thinks that one can just be Happy in a world like this, thought he lizard says that they're going to work on that! Besides, there's no way his argument will survive when it meets Onah's blade.

The monkey agrees to disagree, and thus, they continue on.

The group finally makes it back to Sinnoa. They head in, where the monkey is surprised by the general lax atmosphere. He looks around and sees several of the citizens just taking in the atmosphere. Eluso asks what's up with these guys, to which Sherebi says that they're enjoying the environment. They don't have a lot to worry about unlike the people at Tula, so they have more time to connect with the general environment. Eluso asks who made the houses, to which the lizard says that they've been built a while ago, though they have a family around to make sure they're in good condition. Eluso asks who feeds them, to which Sherebi says that Onah and himself go gather food, and then a family distributes them. Eluso says that that sounds like a lot of work for so few people to do, to which Sherebi says it is, but it's worth it to keep the rest of these people able to work on their mind stuff themselves.

At that moment, the swan comes forwards and greets the group. She says that she's missed the lot of them, and she notes the monkey, remarking that he's wearing Tula clothing. He says that he is indeed from Tula, and wished to help these lot on their journey back to their home. She says that she's grateful for that. For now, however, there is something she wishes to discuss with them. She'd been hunting recently, and in the process uncovered something truly surprising over in the woods Demiurge awoke from. Demiurge asks what it is, and she says that this may weird him out, but she swears that she saw his very own Wings deep in the woods. 

Demiurge is indeed weirded out by that, and asks if she's certain. She confirms as much. She can only assume that they were removed during the fight with the Lord of the Land way back when. Eluso remarks that such items would make for great aesthetics in either of their villages. Onah confirms as much herself. They could act as a glorious symbol in either of their care, though she turns to Demiurge and asks if he will bequeath them to them. Demiurge seems unsettled at this, but he doesn't seem to have the strength to argue them. So, he concedes and says that if they wish, they can use the Wings. 

Eluso says that Sinnoa can probably have one and Tula can have the other. However, ONah speaks up on that, saying that she couldn't get the Wings. By the time she spied them, she'd already exhausted much of her reservoirs for battle. Worse still, some Monsters appeared to've claimed them. Sherebi asks what they could want out of such a thing, to which Onah says she doesn't know, but she knows what she saw. Eluso says that if this is the kind of foe they have to deal with, then he'll be sure to buffer their defenses. He'll update Elatka on the situation, and she can join them in their hunt of the Monsters. Onah says that any help would be appreciated, offering to walk him back to Tula.

With that, she tells the group to rest, that they'll have to prepare themselves for a hike, and for the various creatures that hide in the woods. Demiurge nods in understanding, albeit a little uncomfortable at the subject of their search. With that, Onah and Eluso leave, and the remaining duo are left to clean up the Sinnoa church and sleep.

;Iuli 1st - Iuli 10th

The next morning, Demiurge and Sherebi wake. They step out, and can see the trio of Onah, Elatka, and Eluso coming into Sinnoa. They greet at the gate, and Elatka says that she's been informed on the situation. She'll be more than happy to aid them. Sherebi thanks her for doing so, and thus the various party members meet up. And now, the group has a destination for their journey: the woods to the west, the '''Ancient Woods'''.
----
The group makes their way to the Ancient Woods. They soon make it to the mouth of it, and Elatka says that they haven't been here before and asks Onah what they can see inside. Onah says there are various animals of small to large sizes, typically covered in fur and feathers. She's seen a fair few wolves, foxes, and bears, and even saw some bats deeper in. Elatka nods at the confirmation and thus keeps a hand close to her katana, the party proceeding into the Ancient Woods. The inside features a shadowed-landscape with a twisting trail with branches into other parts of the woods. Initially the party is led to one of the specific branches, where Onah says the Wings were last seen, but sees that nothing's there. Following that, players will have to search around the various branches in order to uncover the Wings. The following list shows first what happens when the Wings are discovered to be missing, and then will show the following locations and conversations.
*'''Sunray River''' - Partway up the river path, the group notices the way the sun lays on the river, a ray of light peering through the canopy and seeming to light up the water. It's almost as if the river here is blessed as it runs along the rock-bordered channel. Furthermore, as opposed to the rougher sounds usually populating the route, the way the river sounds here seems more calm and serene.<br>Here, there's no sign of the Monsters or the Wings, Onah remarking that that's not good. Sherebi asks where the Wings are, to which Onah responds that they've clearly been moved. She says that they'll probably have to search the Woods all over, only for Elatka to step forwards. She says that she's tracked down ferals before, she thinks she can narrow down wherever they went. Thus, she investigates the area, and soon uncovers claw-marks in the bank. She follows the trail, and soon says she's made out a trail, seems like it's gone down the river. She suspects they should check out where the river flows.
*'''Fish Pond''' - Following the end of a river in the forest is a pretty scene. Down a cliff-face, the river runs down into a pond half the size of a baseball field, said field dotted with stones jutting out, as well as patches of shallow water made thanks to bundles of stone. Furthermore, throughout the clean water, one can see many pretty fish swimming around, making for a pretty scene for those looking on, especially when the sunlight hits just right.<br>If players are here after investigating the Sunray River, Elatka goes towards the source, where she investigates more and more. Sherebi asks how she's learned to do this, to which the owl says that they've been crafting their various work arts for years now. She says that the vast majority of her people can do the same thing. Sherebi asks if shse's really making her people hunt, to which she says that she's made people able to get their own food. Meanwhile, Sinnoa seems to've kept itself stagnant, leaving life-saving duties to a narrow window of people who can't achieve these skills. Onah, however, decides to speak up, saying that what she's done is put burden on her people. She asks her if she makes sure the people tasked with working are able to do the things she requests of them, to which Elatka says that anyone should be able to work however they are able to. Onah seems ready to capitalize on that, only for Demiurge to speak up and say they should keep investigating. Thus, Elatka investigates the area, and finds, in addition to the claw marks, a strange slender mark in the trail.
*'''Gnarled Maple''' - The group finds a hill with a fancy tree on it. Said tree has a base that branches into a pair of thick branches, which then extend upwards. Said thick branches each have their own branches, each lifting up and up and even branching into thicker branches that themselves have their own branches. The twisting branches lift up to about 15 feet, and they brandish fancy maple leaves, which seem to let the sunlight shine in in fractured rays. There's currently nothing in this branch.
*'''Flower Field''' - The party finds a patch of the forest where the canopy spreads to let a lot of light in. Down here is a patch of land almost alien to the rest of the forest, looking to have several large flowers sprouted from the soil. Many varying sizes, many varying colors, many of the buds raised to about head-high for the average adult. There's currently nothing in this branch.
*'''Largest Tree''' - Near the other end of the forest, players find a tree that's far higher than any other tree, stretching far past the canopy. Its base appears to be thicker than any building, being a few dozen feet thick in diameter. Its branches stretch above the canopy, and the shade creates an opening in said canopy. Apparently, occasionally the leaves come down in such a way to create an amazing appearance for those that stand before it. There's currently nothing in this branch.

The group heads towards the trail, and in there, they uncover a frightening sight. There on the trail was a fairly long, blue-scaled watersnake feral who's trying to evade the bites of a deadly Velociraptor. The snake tries to weave around and manages to bite the thigh of the creature, though it kicks it away, slamming it into one of the trees. The party rushes to its side and turns towards the Monster. Sherebi asked what's happening, to which Eluso says that this snake must've been a native in the environment, and he'll bet that this Velociraptor split from the group to try and hunt it. It probably devoured much of the fish in the Pond too. Onah says that either way, this world has no need for Monsters! The watersnake recovers and gets next to the rest of the party.

Thus, players battle the '''Wind Velociraptor'''. The creature itself mainly focuses on speed and attack, dealing hefty Slashing damage and attempting to smother the party in Wind magic, while also using Agility buffs. During this fight, players have a brand new party member with them, not yet named. Said party member, the watersnake, has access to Water magic, and Poison magic. It primarily develops towards Ailment magic, and also uses its fangs to deal Stabbing damage for normal attacks. Fortunately, with a well-timed poison attack and everyone else's work, the Monster is felled.

The party pants and pants, soon sheathing their weapons while the watersnake groans and falls limp. The party turns towards it, Demiurge and Sherebi worried. They go investigate it, though Eluso tells them that the Monster grievously harmed it. She says that it'll likely die out here, to which Demiurge says that they can't just let it die out like this. It helped them and it was unfairly torn from its home! Elatka says that nature is like that sometime, that they're here to do the same to the Monsters. For now, it's better to eliminate her.

However, Onah suddenly carefully takes the serpent up. She says that they'll have to move fast and wrap up the search for the Wings later. Thus, she leaves the area, the rest of the party surprised. Still, they're each forced out.
----
They make it back to Sinnoa, where she brings it to the church. Here, she tells Sherebi to tend to it, and the lizard gives a quick investigation of her. He says that it'll take him a while to suture up her wounds, and Eluso asks why they couldn't do this in the Woods. Sherebi says that they couldn't risk being there around the ferals of the woods, and that he needs to take extra care to keep all of the wounds sterile during the healing process. Onah says that this may take a while, so she says that right now would be a good time to rest. 

Thus, realizing there's no room for argument, the Tula-duo leaves. Meanwhile, Demiurge hangs behind, asking how often this sort of thing springs up. Onah says that she's always felt a little bad about hunting down these creatures. She understands it's an animal eat animal world out there, but ultimately people like them have to tear one of these from their homes so one of their own to live. She understands that's the way it's been since before the conception of their intelligence, but still... So, she and Sherebi try to help out where they can, hoping to let those that were injured recover. Demiurge asks what happens if they encounter them again, to which she says that whatever happens in the future happens, unfortunately. 

For now, though, it's late. They should rest.
----
The next day comes and the party meets back up at the gate. And out there, Sherebi can be seen with the snake, Elatka asking where he's going to put that. The lizard says he thought he was going to bring Olki back to the Woods, but he thinks he's taken a liking to them. Eluso repeats "Olki" in a confused tone. Sherebi says he named him. He lowers the snake to the ground and walks away, only for the snake to return to him. He does it again, and again it happens. Onah says that it looks like the snake's here to stay. Elatka supposes the more help the better. And thus, the player gets a brand new party member, '''Olki'''. 

Either way, there's more Woods to explore.
----
The group returns to the Woods, particularly to the central area where they uncovered Olki. There, Elatka investigates the area, and concludes that there're no other tracks here. She suspects that one Velociraptor broke off from the group to hunt down this creature. She supposes that there's a chance the rest of the group is elsewhere, and thus says they should investigate the river from back when. And thus, the player is given a route.

Investigating the Sunray River will reveal another set of clawed footprints. And these lead the party around the forest yet again, first bringing them towards the Flower Field. And upon approaching there, the group will spot, strangely enough, an odd alteration with the flowers. If players investigated this area beforehand, Eluso will note that that patch of flowers looked different from before. The group thus investigates the new area, though before they do, Onah warns that she has a bad feeling about this, that they should make sure they're ready before they investigate that area. Once players make the choice, they make their way into the flower patch and search the area.

They part the flowers, and once they do, they find a truly odd sight: a wing. Not just any wing, though; it bears bronze scales and a familiar bronze-colored membrane. Demiurge says that that's one of his old wings! The party thusly grabs it, and Sherebi asks how it's in any sort of good condition. This wing would have to be around 500 years old! Elatka says that that indeed is nonsensical. The only thing she can assume is that those Monsters, for some reason, kept it maintained this whole time. However, as they contemplate that, they hear a hiss from Olki.

The group thusly turns, where they see another Velociraptor between them and the way back to the main trail. Elatka declares that they've been surprised and takes her katana up. The party brings up their weaponry also, Demiurge saying that they're more than able to take this foe. With that, players are forced into a mid-boss fight with the '''Light Velociraptor'''. Said foe is fairly similar to the last Velociraptor, though instead of Wind magic, this one wields Light magic, and instead of Agility buffing, it uses Reflection magic. However, with enough work and well timed attacks during the Reflection, the group should be more than able to fell the Monster.

And with it beaten, the party sheathes their weaponry, and Sherebi asks what that thing was doing, coming back here. Eluso looks over the wing and asks if it somehow came for it. Elatka asks why it would do that. There's no meat on it, it's not firm enough to be used as a tool... Onah supposes they can consider that at a later date. For now, though, they only got one Wing. She saw two. Thus, Elatka says that they'll need to investigate for the remaining Wing.
----
After that, the next location Elatka uncovers will lead them towards the Gnarled Maple. They thusly follow the tracks and head there, and if players were here previously, Eluso will notice an out of place twinkle within the roots of the Maple. Either way, the party chooses to check out the roots, and inside, they find, of all things, the remaining Wing. They take it, and Sherebi looks over it as well, noting that it's also in good condition. Eluso supposes that whatever they did to the last Wing they probably did here, but he wonders why.

Onah raises a suggestion. She wonders if, perhaps, those creatures had some sort of sentimental value over the two of them. Elatka says that that makes zero sense: they're mere creatures meant to worok to survive, why would they have some sort of sentimental value for something like that? Onah says that they as a civilization have clung onto the teachings of their past and Meila's hope, that they use that information to press on. Elatka points out that the ''two of them'' use that information to press on, while all of her people use that information. Either way, she says that those are the likings of an intelligent species, not of Monsters that tear down their people. Onah then says that maybe this is a sign that nature itself agrees in the pursuit of Happiness, only for Elatka to point out that these "Happiness seekers" are nearing their complete extermination!

However, their argument gets cut off as Olki hisses. The group turns, and sees another Velociraptor cutting them off. Eluso says that they've been surprised again, and each of them brings out their weaponry. And then, the vicious animal rushes them, and players are forced into battle with the '''Fire Velociraptor'''. This one is similar to previous ones, except it instead wields Fire magic and Damage Buffing magic. It proves to be fairly dangerous, especially when it increases its own power, but with enough work will be able to defeat it. And soon, it's down. With that, the party is left panting and panting, each sheathing their weaponry.

Elatka says that they've gotten in a fair bit of danger discussing their ideals out here. They should wait to discuss until they're out of here. Sherebi says that that sounds like a good idea. Either way, they've got the Wings, so it's time to go back to town. Onah, however, seems uncertain. She says that these Woods offer incredible aesthetics for testing their ideologies, but it's still filled with those Monsters. She thinks that they should take care of them. Elatka says that the less of those creatures there are in this world, the better. With that, the party has another goal in mind, and checking tracks will lead them towards the Largest Tree.
----
The group makes their way there, and once approaching the Largest Tree, they see a bunch of Velociraptors grouped together, a small cavity carved in the tree. They see the group, and hiss, each flaring their claws and teeth. Seeing them, Eluso remarks that they were kind enough to group up. Elatka draws her katana and tells the group that they mustn't let them go. Onah agrees, saying that they will destroy these ones finally. As they do, the various Velociraptors get a view of the Dragon Wings the group has, and they seem even angrier. 

They suddenly lunge at the party, and they're thusly forced into battle with the '''Velociraptor Group'''. This group is a group of 4 Velociraptors. These consist of the Lightning Velociraptor, Earth Velociraptor, Dark Velociraptor, and Blood Velociraptor. Lightning wields Lightning magic, as well as speed buffs. Earth wields Earth magic as well as defense buffs. Dark wields Dark magic and a few ailments. And Blood's claim to fame is extreme physical damage and a special ailment. Players should be weary about Dark first off, with that one being a constant thorn in the party's side with their ailments. Lightning and Earth should also be concerning due to their increasing of stats and whatnot. 

But perhaps the second one to worry about is the Blood Velociraptor. That one has the skill '''Ancestral Rage''', in which they inflict one of the fellow Velociraptors with an ailment that increases their strength, while also reducing them to merely Attack each turn. Players should be weary about the enemies' strategies, and especially when one of them is raging. While that does lead to a snafu in their usual gimmick, it does mean players will have to deal with decent damage. However, through enough hard work and determination, players will be able to destroy the group of Monsters.

The various creatures lie dead, the party panting and panting. They sheathe their weapons and Sherebi remarks that he can't believe they actually did that. So many Monsters have been felled in this forest! Onah says that that is indeed quite the feat. Demiurge, however, grows curious about that cavity in the tree. He approaches, and notices that the cavities are shaped just like the wings he had before. He brings them close, and indeed, they fit. Onah remarks that it's like a shelf, and Elatka says it's more like a mantle. Did the Monsters actually take pride in felling the Dragon centuries ago? Demiurge says he's not sure, but he decides he doesn't really want to think about what they're doing with them. Not any more.

With that, the group returns to their home.
----
After that, Onah is gifted one Wing, and Elatka is gifted the other. Elatka says that they should be going back home, and Onah says that she's grateful for their aid. The owl says she's more than happy to for the sake of the Dragon, and now that this forest is good, she'd like to visit it herself. The swan says she'll keep it open for her. With that, her and the monkey begin to leave, though not before Elatka tells Demiurge to think about everything he's learned here, and to think on what that means for the purpose of life. With that, she heads out.

And players are thusly given time to relax.

;Iuli 11th

This next day comes, and with it, Demiurge steps into the main room of the Sinnoa Church. There, plastered upon the mantle is one of the two Wings they'd gotten from the woods. The Bronze Dragon looks over it uncertain, nervously sweating as he just imagines those being ripped from him. As he looks over it, Onah suddenly appears and asks how he's doing. Demiurge admits that it's really weird seeing a part of him just hung up. The swan says she understands that, and apologizes. But she's sure that such a divine artifact will serve as a useful tool for future communion. At least, she'd thought it would. 

Aesthetics are supposed to help please and leave the mind open to expanding their thought. However, now that she looks at it, she can only think about how asymmetrical it appears. Demiurge asks if she really wishes for the other one, to which the swan says she isn't sure. To do so would mean to challenge the ideologies yet again. And unfortunately, as far as she can tell, they're in a stalemate. She turns to Demiurge and says that odds are they'll keep finding reasons to dismiss the other ideology, and if there is to be progress in this advance, then he might need to make the call. 

Onah asks if he's certain on which ideology is correct for the people of this world, to which players are given a moment to select one of three options: "Yours", "Elatka's", or "I don't know". However, before he vocalizes his answer, Sherebi comes into the room, telling Onah that Olki's shedding. The swan says that they'll have to continue this conversation later. For now, however, more cleaning will have to be done, and this may be their toughest foe yet. With that, the group gets to work cleaning.
===Penultimate===
The day continues on with the party cleaning the church. The night comes easily enough, though Demiurge can't help but think that he's going to have to make a decision that will impact the future yet again. He does feel Happiness is important in life, but Elatka had a point about how life itself necessitated work. So, still uncertain, he tries and rest.

;Iuli 12th - Iuli 15th

More free time is had, with players again able to do Social Links, sidequests, grind up, or what have you. Interestingly, players can still have Elatka and Eluso assist for battles during this period of time. Additionally, players can garner sidequests from Tula too.

At the night of Iuli 15th, Demiurge is about to sleep in the Sinnoa Church again, though is stopped by Sherebi. He says that he notices that he's been a bit stressed as of late. Demiurge admits he is. Onah and Elatka keep clashing over their ideals, and right now they seem to believe that he himself will choose the ideal that's right. Sherebi says that he's divinity, so wouldn't it make sense for such a responsibility to fall on him? Demiurge says that he's much younger than any Dragon that'd rule a world. The lizard gives pause, and apologizes.

With all of the stature he's been given, he's sort of forgotten that he's still a kid. While Sherebi wishes for his sister's dreams to be fulfilled, he understands he shouldn't heap all of that responsibility on him. Demiurge apologizes back, saying that truthfully, he should be taking this more seriously. He may be young, but he is still divine, and right now he's letting the two quarrel over which is right instead of setting them on the straight and narrow. The lizard asks excitedly if he's figured what that is, to which Demiurge is silent. He says he'll have to sleep on it.

Sherebi then extends an arm, Olki wrapped around it. He offers the Dragon the pet as a sort of relaxation tool. Demiurge hesitantly takes him, and he slithers up his arm and over his shoulders, softly cradling his neck. Demiurge thanks the lizard, and with that, he sleeps again.

;Iuli 16th

The party wakes yet again, only now, Sherebi and Demiurge finds Onah just staring at the alter; specifically the Wing. Sherebi seems to want to comfort her, but just can't find the words, especially as Demiurge is right here. They contemplate, only for a pair of guards to rush into the church. They say that Monsters were spotted heading straight this way! The party turns and Onah asks if he's serious. The guards swear they are: terrible Monsters were seen racing across the plains and towards them! To that, Onah says that they have to send their people out of here and form a defensive position. However, as they contemplate, the monkey from Tula arrives. 

He tells the group that Monsters are coming to Tula. Onah is surprised at that news. The Monsters storming both villages at the same time? Why? Sherebi ponders if the Wings have anything to do with it, to which Eluso, though admitting he doesn't believe it himself, suspects that that's the only plausible explanation. For now, though, they need to mount a defensive. The monkey asks how many of their men are capable of taking arms, to which Onah admits that they only have a handful of guards. Eluso says that her village will surely fall. Sherebi asks how well Tula fares, to which Eluso says that they have many men capable of defending themselves, but he's certain that there're more than enough Monsters to break their defensive line. He even apologizes for not being able to spare them some aid, for he fears even the slightest opening in their ranks will leave them open to destruction.

Onah says that she'll see her village evacuated, but she will keep Sinnoa safe, even if it kills her. Eluso suspects Elatka will say something similar. Sherebi is frightened at the news, and asks if they're going to handle this, to which Onah says that they don't have a choice. It's time for everyone to prove they're fit to live in this world. Thus, the party heads out, while Demiurge himself is still in the church. He takes the moment to contemplate the news he'd learned, and settles on that "we don't have a choice" statement. He has this feeling, deep inside, that he himself has a choice here. He suspects that he himself will have to alter the course of battle. 

Either he goes out there and defends Sinnoa, or he defends Tula. And based on Onah's and Elatka's reactions, he has this feeling that one of them will be felled here... He takes a deep breath as he considers what he should do.

;Iuli 16th - Iuli 23rd

With this, players have a choice of how to go through the next chapter. Players will have to go to either the Tula fields, or the Sinnoa fields, and battle the Monsters there. The decision will be made when the last Monster of either area is destroyed, and the village that isn't defended will be irreparably damaged. 
====Defend Sinnoa====
For this, players will be required to deal with Monsters in the fields of Sinnoa. It should be noted that the fight in this area will be harder than over in Tula, as there are significantly less people battling them. Players can still utilize Elatka and Eluso to battle the creatures. In this area, there are five different fights to partake in, and there are various creatures strewn between them. Players should mind their resources as they press on through the field. 
*There stands a giant Monster with a pair of raptors beside it, said large creature seen using Restorative magic on them. The party is quick to engage it, their home being threatened, and players are forced into battle with the '''Maiasaura'''. The large creature is Water/Restoration based and is mid-speed. It relies on its fellow raptors to deal damage and tends to heal its allies in between striking the party with magic or a sort of hipcheck. Players will have to be fast about damaging the creature and find ways to lower its health faster than it can heal. And they can't just defeat the Raptors and think that's it, because the Maiasaura has low revival magic. However, Eluso should be able to more easily wear down those raptors, meanwhile Olki should be able to keep the foe poisoned to heap on the damage.
*There stands a round and stumpy-looking Monster with thick scales and long spikes protruding from it. The party is quick to engage it, where players are made to battle the '''Ankylosaurus'''. The Monster is defense and Smash focused, with a hint of Earth and buffing magic. Elatka should be able to help the team evade attacks from the foe. Players should also have access to Onah's Beast Eye skill, which allows an ally to act twice, thus giving more opportunity for evading.
*There stands a Monster shaped like a raptor, though bearing feathers and wings. It's joined by a few other raptors. The party is quick to engage it, where players battle the '''Archaeopteryx'''. This fight is fairly similar to the last fight with such a creature, except this one wields the terrible ability to use a Drain attack on its allies when it's low on health. Fortunately, players should be able to circumvent this with a well timed Poison, and through Eluso's insta-kill magic.
*There stands a fairly large Monster, this one with thick plates extending from its spine and a fairly fat body. The party is quick to engage the '''Stegosaurus'''. Said creature's claim to fame is Earth magic and an overall tanky build. It takes a lot of damage to take it down, and it relies on AOE and Smash skills. The name of the game here is evasion, and utilizing Sherebi's restorative power to keep the team's health up.
*There stands a relatively large Monster with forming feathers along the tail and curved claws. The party is quick to engage it the '''Arkansaurus'''. The creature relies on buffing its strength and on Slashing. As such, players will likely have to rely on some of the other ailments Olki can learn to weaken it, as well as utilizing evasion buffs in order to evade the creature's blows. It's important to reduce the amount of hits the creature's able to land.

The fights prove tough, and throughout it, the party will have brief conversations to spice up the exploration. The following conversations happen after the above fights.
#Onah remarks that they did well, but they have much more to go through. Elatka wonders if this many Monsters really came around for those Wings. It almost feels like the whole of the species is coming out for them. Onah supposes that that just proves how important the pursuit of Happiness is to creatures. Elatka says that the lot of them are going to die because of that pursuit.
#Sherebi says that they're getting closer, and says that they have to keep working. The owl glances eastward and looks uncomfortable. She says that the more they're focusing on this, the more Tula is being threatened. Onah says that her men were supposed to be trained, are they not strong enough? Elatka says that they haven't all been trained for something like this, but they should be able to keep them away for a little while. She just hopes they have an opening to help them.
#Eluso says that it looks like they're half way through the crowd. Sherebi remarks that they're doing well so far! He, however, does remark that it feels almost endless. Onah, however, says that they're on the path to a better future. Soon, they'll look upon clean fields, no sing of the creatures. The owl says that it's almost over, and once this is done with, they can all just go home and keep on with their thoughts.
#The party's panting and panting, Elatka saying that her blade is starting to feel dull. Onah says that her own rapier is looking pretty scuffed. Sherebi says that he feels like he's slowly bottoming out, but Demiurge says that they can't look weak now. They're almost through this, and they can just go home and relax. The swan and the owl say that he's right, and that it's time to end this.
#With the last Monster felled, the party is especially tired, the swan raising an arm victoriously. She says that now, they stand tall and victorious. Elatka clarifies that Sinnoa stands tall, but what about Tula? Onah says that with their combined effort, maybe there's time to help them. She says that she'll be more than happy to offer aid now that these creatures are gone. For now, though, she agrees that they're each tired. And so, they begin to head back to Sinnoa.

However, as the party approaches the gates, a pair of guards approach worried. They say that a powerful-looking Monster is coming, this one looking especially large and dangerous! Demiurge asks if they're serious, and Sherebi complains that they've dealt with a ton of them already! Elatka asks him to clarify how dangerous this creature appears, to which one of the guards explains that they're sure it can simply tackle a house into rubble. The owl says that they have to rush the enemy asap, before it can come anywhere close to either of their villages.

With that, the party is prompted to take care of the boss of the area, leading them back into the Great Plains.
----
Deep into the plains the party travels. And as they approach, they see just what'd scared those guards from before. In the field stands a large lizard with a prominent spinal plate, a long muzzle, and large teeth and claws. Sherebi remarks that that thing is gigantic, Eluso affirming that they haven't seen any creature its size before. The Monster spies the party and bares its teeth. It stamps towards them, letting out a monstrous roar as it approached. Seeing it approach, Onah and Elatka draw their respective swords. The owl says that like it or not, it's do or die. The swan says that everyone's future depends on this being falling. Roused by their words, the remaining party members draw their weapons, and get ready to engage.

Thusly, players are forced into a battle with the '''Spinosaurus'''. The creature proves to be quite dangerous. It bears a heavy lean towards physical attacks, while lacking in magic. However, the party themselves have limited access to debuffs and buffs aside from evasion and accuracy. The goal is to lower how many attacks the enemy can land, or out-heal the amount of damage this creature can do. Players will need to be diligent and careful during this fight, but with enough hard work, David will have felled Goliath. The massive creature collapses, dead. 

With it down, the party is left panting and panting, each sheathing their weapons. Sherebi remarks that that felt significantly more dangerous than usual. Onah affirms, saying that that was a struggle. Elatka, meanwhile, stands up and starts heading towards the trail. Demiurge asks what she's doing, to which the owl says that they took care of the creatures on this end, but she still has Tula to look out for. Hearing that, Eluso wearily follows behind. Sherebi asks them if they'll be ok, to which Elatka says that they'll see. For now, she has a duty to keep her home as safe as possible. She tells them to enjoy their own time, and keeps on her way. 

The Sinnoa team, meanwhile, is a little uncomfortable at this minor development. Sherebi asks if they should follow, to which Onah says that she's feeling too tired. They'll have to rest for now, and look into their situation tomorrow. With that, the party is forced back into Sinnoa.
----
The next day, the party wakes and goes to check out the trail. However, there stands guards, one of them saying that the residents of Tula have said not to come. Demiurge asks what's wrong, to which the guards answer that the situation has grown dire, and that attempts at approaching will threaten the environment and those that enter. Demiurge says that they need to go in, though Onah stops him by holding his shoulder. She says that they were given a direct order, and they should keep true to the word.

She leads them away from the guards, and Demiurge asks if she's serious. Onah says that she wanted to prove her ideology for a long time now. Now she has the chance. One day one of them would have to eek out over the other, and what better a way than for the planet itself to decide? Sherebi seems uncomfortable at that,s saying that they came to help, and that they're going to just leave them to die? Onah says that divinity itself decided they should defend Sinnoa. The Dragon grows uncomfortable at that statement, and now, Onah says that they've fought alongside Elatka, they know how strong she is. And she's supposedly led a strong village herself. Truth be told, she does expect them to come out of it better.
----
With that, players are given more free time. Only during this period, they cannot visit Tula, and Eluso and Elatka are currently unavailable. The result of this decision will occur [[#Defend Sinnoa: Conclusion|here]].
====Defend Tula====
====Defend Sinnoa: Conclusion====
;Iuli 24th

It seems like a normal day right now. However, it's interrupted as several Tula citizens came upon Sinnoa. The party goes to greet them, curious. Several of them say that Tula's been lost. The Monsters are down, but the rest of the village is in no good state. Thus, Demiurge, Onah, and Sherebi decide to travel the trail to Tula. And once there, it is a frightening scene. The landscape is coated in blood and features many buildings splintered about, and Monsters laid dead around the beach. Demiurge is startled by the landscape, Onah remarking that it's a massacre out here. Demiurge notes that it doesn't look like there's a single mortal among the Monsters.

Sherebi then asks where Elatka or Eluso are. Spurred on, the group thus heads into the village. They investigate the beach, soon coming to the church. At its steps, they see the famous monkey, him looking shell shocked. He doesn't even seem to notice the party, just staring at the sand while clenching the handrail tightly. He's wounded and bloody, and the lizard says that he'll stay back and tend to his wounds. Onah nods, and thus she and the Dragon go up the stairs. They make it to the top and into the church. Said church has a great big hole towards the top, indicating something had been sent through it. 

They go through the doors, and see a truly stunning sight within the church. In there is the corpse of a winged monster, a pterodactyl, laid flat upon several of the pews and the altar. Plunged into its chest is a katana, and holding its handle is a very familiar owl. Though she has the pose of a warrior striking down an enemy in her final breath, the wounds and the deluge of blood around her indicate a horrible truth. The party approaches, Demiurge ushering out Elatka's name to try and get her attention. He manages to get close enough and gently holds her shoulder, and that slight movement causes the corpse to lose its balance, its limp fingers unwrapping from the handle and it falling into a heap upon the ground. 

The Dragon is stunned, and glances towards Onah in alarm. The swan is left staring at Elatka, her own jaw dropped. She struggles to recollect her bearings, and says that Elatka would've wanted them to press on. She turns to the altar, it propping up the pterodactyl's body ever so slightly, and carefully maneuvers under it. She plucks the remaining Wing from the altar and gets out from under the monster. She says that all of that manpower, and Tula was still lost. She says that this must be a sign, before asking Demiurge if that is indeed what this is. She can imagine no other reason for such wonton butchery. Players are thus giving the chance to answer: "It must be" or "I don't know". 

Onah furrows her brow as she clasps tightly on the Wing. Either way, she says that the old ideology has been felled, the Monsters dragging it down with them to the grave. Happiness will have to prevail for all of them. She just hopes her brother will never have to see anything like this. With that, the duo exits the church, seeing Eluso was sutured back up by healing magic, though he still has that shocked look on his face. Sherebi sees the group, and he asks what they saw. Onah says there's nothing for them left in here. She says they're going home. Sherebi seems ready to ask more about what happened, but her seriousness convinces him to stay quiet.

And with that, players press on, the story continuing [[#Finale: Sinnoa Route|here]].
===Finale: Sinnoa Route===
The group makes it back to Sinnoa, Eluso in tow. They make it there, and once there, the swan says that she'll be sure to check on the monkey. Thus she takes Eluso away, and Demiurge and the lizard are left together. Sherebi asks if Elatka is really... to which Demiurge affirms his worst fears. The healer is uncomfortable at that, asking if that was because of their previous decision. Demiurge says he's not sure. He also says that there wasn't a single mortal body among the carnage. She and Eluso must've done a lot of work to keep them safe. Sherebi says they must've been really powerful.

Demiurge then asks him what'll happen to the Tula people. Sherebi supposes that, unless Onah wants to maintain the opposing ideology, they'll be taught about the pursuit of Happiness. However, if they're anything like that owl, he has this feeling that they'll struggle to agree to it. Right now, though, he hopes that Onah can talk Eluso through this. He can't imagine what he's feeling. Demiurge agrees. Olki, meanwhile, gently nuzzles up against Sherebi and Demiurge, the two of them petting him in return. 

Sherebi thanks Olki for the assistance. He then says that they should relax right now. They'll have to contend with the new happenings later. Demiurge agrees, and remarks that it's a bit late.

With that, players rest for the night.

;Iuli 25th - Iuli 28th

For now, there's a period of free time. During this time, however, players will be unable to hang out with Eluso, though he'll join the party in missions, clearly trying to take his mind off of what'd happened back in Tula. In the meantime, players get to do sidequests and other social stuff and other grinding. In the meantime, players also get to get a read on the various Tula citizens that'd immigrated over. They're each very uncomfortable and trying to shake off the deadly sight they saw a short while ago. They also seem confused around Sinnoans, and vice versa. The Tulans that're trying to use work to keep their mind off of things are confused at how few services the city provides for people to work at, while the Sinnoans are confused about how these guys seem to work to relax.

On the night of Iuli 28th, the group meets back in the church, looking over the grand hall and the alter. Said alter is brandishing the two Wings, them poised looking complete and like a proper set. Onah looks at it contemplatively, before turning to the rest of the party. She says that tomorrow they're holding another communion. And they have new members to talk to. These guys have been lived a different life than them, and continue to practice it. She has a hard time believing that they'll just change their mind.

Sherebi asks if they really have to convince them, to which Onah says that the world showed them the way the world is supposed to be. The path of Work will be torn away from them while the path of Happiness stands. She can imagine no alternative to the grizzly scene Tula was provided. She will tell them about the right path, and after that, it's their decision. Either they go on the right path, or the wrong path. As long as they allow them to live their own lives, they will allow them to. Despite the conviction in her voice when she said that, there's an aura of uncertainty among them. Thus, they head to bed.

;Iuli 29th

On this day, the group woke up, and a crowd was forming just outside the church, Eluso among the attendees. Onah would approach the alter. She'd take a deep breath, and tell Demiurge and Sherebi this'll be just like usual. She'll talk, she may prompt Demiurge. Right now, they're just to run this like a normal communion... only, they'll be made to answer against the path of Work. Sherebi asks if she and Demiurge are sure they'll be able to do that. Onah says that whatever the case, they'll have to answer it anyways. She says that the doors will open, and everyone will take their positions. And thus, the doors open, and in come several more villagers. 

Once they all sit down, Onah greets them, saying that they have many new faces today. And with them, new perspectives. She first would wish them to know how their communion differs, though one of the Tulans offer a very similar run-through that their own communion goes through. She affirms that they use this time to contemplate on their purpose in this world and argue the point, when one of the Tulans point out that they've probably been agreeing with each other over the same exact point. All everyone around here seems to agree is that Happiness is the ultimate pursuit of those that live. Onah admits that their scope has been fairly limited as of late, but she's certain that they're on the right path after interacting alongside Elatka.

One of the Tulans say that Sinnoa thinks that Happiness is the end goal. However, Happiness is not itself a purpose, it's a side effect ''of'' purpose. Pining after Happiness is like pining after a delicious taste: it's fine from time to time, but it's the eating itself that keeps one alive. Onah turns towards Demiurge, who can respond "It's possible to ''work'' towards Happiness" or "It's possible to ''work'' towards deliciousness". Onah affirms the point. She says that the argument assumes that these states only exist as side effects, when there is plenty of evidence in place showing that reaching such conclusions is a workable goal. Demiurge has frequently helped out people around the village for little to no reward, granting Happiness just for the sake of it. 

One Tulan says that their journey to Happiness will lead to less people providing for the community. Some may get Happiness from working or doing things for others, but that'll very likely be a minority of people. And when that happens, how'll they expect any form of a functioning society? Onah turns towards Demiurge, who has another choice: "You'd be surprised how many people would work for Happiness" or "You can't expect everyone to work". To the former, Onah says that that is indeed true, that there's currently a society full of people freshly integrated into theirs that worked, and that she's sure either that there are Tulans that get Happiness from working, or that there'll be people that'll want to be like those workers, just as she herself wanted to strive to be like the intelligentsia of old. To the latter, Onah says that the alternative to that suggests a world where everyone is supposed to work hard, but the simple fact of the matter is that, unfortunately, not everyone's built for the world at large, as the recent incident has shown. 

One Tulan then speaks up. They say that Work is an endless cycle that ensures it'll live on forever, whereas Happiness is an end goal destined to end. So, they ask, if they achieve Happiness truly, what will they as a species possibly hope to achieve after that? Onah glances towards Demiurge, the Dragon again given some choices: "Not everyone will be Happy forever" or "Everyone will have their own Happiness to seek out". Onah affirms either point. Happiness is not a single entity that everyone can cling to and say it's correct, nor is it a permanent sensation. Many people will change throughout time, and they themselves are working hard to try and work past tragedy. The path of Happiness will be a dynamic path for each and every individual.

The Tulans seem still uncertain. There're murmurs of uncertainty, but eventually Onah decides that their Communion has gone on too long. She says that they should rest for now. The attendees glance around curious, before stepping up and making their way out. And once out, Onah gently exhales a breath. She replies that that felt harder than she expected. Sherebi asks her if she's ok, to which she replies so. Sherebi points out that he swears that she got more heated in talks with the owl than with those guys, to which Onah says that that's different. With her, it felt more like a proper duel, able to exchange words in a more controlled environment. However, it was pretty much just her and Demiurge against far more of her, and though they were less heated in their verbal combat, the density of people she'd have to change is... daunting. 

Demiurge supposes that she should rest as well, to which she replies that that sounds nice. With that, she gets up, and begins to head to a room. Meanwhile, Demiurge, Sherebi, and Olki are left in the hall. Demiurge asks Sherebi what he thinks about the situation, to which the lizard says he's not certain. The way the two sides talk, it almost sounds as if they're arguing the same point? The Tulans work and seem to enjoy it, while Sinnoans want to enjoy the life ethey're given. Demiurge does admit that it's confusing. He supposes that they ultimately have the same goal, but find that their approach to it is too superior to simply say that one of them is more correct.

Sherebi says that he's going to try and comfort Onah right now, and tells Demiurge that he should relax to. The Dragon thanks him, and thus they split. Demiurge is left sitting at a pew, before he looks up and says, to no one in particular, he really wishes he could speak to Sophia right now. Either way, he goes to bed himself.

;Iuli 30th - Augua 5th

More free time is available to the party. This means more time to relax, to do sidequests, to hang out with party members, and so on. However, once more Eluso is unavailable to talk to. He'll still participate in missions you wish to perform, but not much else. Either way, they don't have much going on for now.

;Augua 6th

On this day, Onah has gathered the party. She says that she'd taken some of what the Tulans said in mind, and Sherebi asks what she means. She says that they've lived with a narrow field of view for a while now. They've been couped up down here on this corner of the land for too long, and she decides that they should branch out and find more land, more places to gather necessary resources. And maybe even more places to gather enlightenment. Sherebi says that that's a great idea, and asks where they'll head. The swan says that she's been looking towards the mountain range, and the more she looks at it, the more she swears she can make out a path through it. It's almost like the land itself is asking them to explore it.

She'll begin gathering Tulans to properly mark the trail, but first, it'll be up to them to go ahead on the trail. Sherebi says that he likes the idea, and Demiurge says that it'll certainly be useful to check out more of the land. And thus, the group sets out.

;Augua 6th - Augua 13th

The players are quickly sent in the direction of the mountain range towards the northeast. The trail looks steep, and the group's feeling a little daunted. However, Onah says that they have a mission. They thusly begin heading up the naturally formed trail, having to be weary of the creatures throughout. As they go up, Onah can't help but wonder how the world will look from on high. Sherebi asks Demiurge if he's ever flown as high as possible, to which the Dragon replies that he's always had Sophia to help him out with flying, he's not personally confident about getting up in the sky. 

They continue on up, going a partial way up the trail. Sherebi asks what the city they'll build will be like, to which Onah says she imagines it'll be like another Sinnoa, them setting up a similar structure with similar houses with a similar structure. It'll be as if they never left, to which Demiurge asks if it'll be like they never left, then why move in the first place? Onah takes pause, to which she replies that a bit of change may be necessary. That is part of the reason for this journey.

They go up and up, before eventually reaching the peak of the trail. And on top of there, they look, out at the large landscape, Onah remarking that they really haven't gone that far. Demiurge says that there's a lot of room for all of them to grow out here. Sherebi is awed, and holds out Olki so he can check out the impressive sight. Onah supposes they'll have to scour the lot of it for the answer to life they're all looking for. As they look, Demiurge glances down towards the end of the trail, where he spies something terrifying: a monster, bigger than any boulder, and looking as mean as sin itself, way down at ground level and significantly more alone than when Demiurge last saw it.

Demiurge points it out, and the group looks down, way down the trail, to see, in the land of rolling hills, the '''Lord of the Lands'''. The massive T-Rex is resting, and the party members are mortified. Sherebi says that they need to get rid of it, before it has the chance to threaten their home! However, Onah stops him, saying that a single strike from them will simply rouse it awake. And when that happens, it'll be their heads. Demiurge glowers at the beast, before saying that they have to go back and regroup, they've already spent plenty of time and resources on the trail. Thus, the party is forced to retreat.
----
Now, the destination is at the very end of the mountain, in order to set upon the monster before it can try anything. However, Onah says that they are not to approach it until they are certain they are prepared for any issue. This means keeping themselves trained up, geared up, and in top shape for an assault. THe various characters have their own reactions to what's coming up, and players get to get a read on each of them before that.
*Eluso - The monkey is still very unsettled. He still seems shellshocked from what's gone on back in Tula, and Demiurge wonders how he's doing. However, the monkey says that they're going to die. They're going to die they're going to die they're going to die. Demiurge tries to comfort him, but he doesn't seem to really react to him. So, Demiurge is forced to leave him.
*Olki - The snake can be seen hanging in the bedroom, and he definitely seems to notice the stress building in the party members. Demiurge takes notice, and he tells the snake that everything will be ok. These guys are all strong. The snake looks up at him pleadingly, and Demiurge says that he'll make sure everybody comes back alive. The snake smiles and nuzzles up against the Dragon.
*Sherebi - The lizard says that Tula looked positively terrible. He can't imagine what that giant would do to this. Demiurge admits that it was terrible the last time he faced it. Sherebi asks what they did to beat it, to which Demiurge admits that he didn't. But, he wasn't as strong as he is now. Sherebi says that he hopes so to, and swears he'll do everything he can in this fight.
*Onah - The swan stands near the gate, looking onwards. She tells Demiurge that those creatures ruled the world once upon a time. The Dragons must've wished for them to remove them, to grow past them. And she can only imagine that Tula was punished for not standing above them. She then turns to Demiurge and says that they will not fall to that. That they will prove they're worthy to live.

With that, the final night comes, and everyone's getting ready to head out for tomorrow.

;Augua 13th

On this day, the group makes their way out to the mountain range, across the trail they'd traveled, where they see the massive monster lingering at the edge. Sherebi says that it looks even scarier right now. Eluso seems certain that they're going to die still. Olki, however, sensing their stress, nuzzles against Demiurge and Olki to calm them down, before moving onto Sherebi. Onah and Demiurge glance towards each other, and give each other a nod. Onah says that they've gone through too much to let these things threaten them. The rulers of old are on their way out, and the age of animals is at hand. She tells them all to step forwards and end this fight!

With that, the party races forwards, the monster sensing them and getting up on its feet. The t-rex glowers at them, before bellowing out a nasty, ground-shaking roar. With that, players are forced into a battle against the '''Lord of the Land'''. The creature indeed earns its title, as it stands as one of the most dangerous Monsters. It bears powerful strength and magic, as well as multi-target physical and magic strikes, and even the Charge and Earth skills. Players will have to utilize great strategy. Players should make sure damage is always done to it via Olki's poison, because often they may end up dedicating turns to healing themselves. Onah should also help with that, her being able to grant multiple turns to a party member. But with enough work, the creature will be beaten. 

The subsequent cutscene shows the various characters striking at the foe with their respective magical element, while Sherebi is making sure to keep health up. The Monster is growing more and more angered as it gets beaten and beaten. It starts scanning across the various party members, trying to find someone to strike down to hopefully get some sort of victory. It takes note of the lizard, detecting the Restorative magic flowing from him. It snarls, before channeling a current of magic forwards, before stamping the ground, causing sharp pillars of rock to pierce the surface, starting to head towards the lizard. Demiurge hears the noises, and turns to see Sherebi in the path of what would likely be a devastating blow. 

Demiurge then begins to race towards him, terrified of the harm that'll come to him. Sherebi is allowed only a moment to glance towards the magic attack coming towards him... when he feels himself pushed away. And then, a terrible, cracking noise fills the air, bringing a pause to the fight scene. The various party members turn, and see the Dragon's body, his flesh perforated by several stalagmites freshly grown from the ground. His legs, his wings, his chest, his neck... he's positively riddled with the stones. The many party members are alarmed at the sight of the Dragon, who can only weakly look at them each and see their horrified expressions. He tries to pull himself from the bed of spikes, but the Lord shakes to its senses, and leaps up. The party's only given a split moment to look up as the creature belly flops onto the bed of spikes, purely intent on driving Demiurge further onto the attack.

And with that, the Dragon's senses are horrifically overwhelmed. His body is alight with pain and his vision blurred with misery. His body is driven numb from the injury all around him, and he can't collect his consciousness enough to gather any of his strength. He finds himself forced into another sleep.

And with that, players have finished another era. Having completed the Sinnoa route, players will move onto the [[#Enlightenment Era|Enlightenment Era]].
==Enlightenment Era==
Demiurge feels his blood rushing through his veins again. He gives his body a few shakes, though he feels as if he's restrained. He grunts and hefts, and through much strife, is soon able to move. He's forced to pull himself free from a few feet of soil entombing him, and once up, he lauds in the fresh air. He dusts himself and is able to get a read on his new body, it being around 10 feet tall and having longer horns, a longer tail, and thicker wings.

At this point, players are allowed to choose a class for him. As he gets up, he soon looks around. He finds himself buried at the top of that mountain range, but, on top of said mountain range, he can see a village nearby. As he looks over it, he hears a familiar voice ask him if he's had a good rest. Demiurge turns, and sees the pale Dragon herself, Sophia. Demiurge asks what happened, to which she explains he "died" again. Demiurge admits that he didn't exactly want to remember that. It hurt. He then asks for clarification what exactly happened with the civilizations. Sophia tells him that as this world's Dragon, he'll have to figure that out for himself. She, however, clarifies that the Lord of the Land was quickly finished off before it could claim another victim, and that those that'd traveled with him ages ago set him up here as tribute. Since then, they'd been at work with the ideology they'd decided on. 

Demiurge asks what they'd settled on, and what they're doing about it. To that, the pale dragon explains that that is on him to figure out. She says that the world is quite different from what he remembered, and that there are people out there that won't be reasonable. As the mortals have overcome the wilds around them, their zeal grows to dangerous lengths. She tells him to be careful, to which the younger Dragon says he will. Sophia spreads her wings, but Demiurge stops her, saying that they spent a long time debating over what the goal of lifeforms is. He didn't personally know, so he went with the best guesses he could garner from what they'd gone through during their time on this planet. So, he wants to ask her what that goal is, and whether he's deviating from that or not.

Sophia takes pause, silent as she stayed in her pose. Demiurge waits for her to say something, only for her to flap her wings, and suddenly disappear before the bronze Dragon. He looks up, distraught at having a potential answer torn away from him. He sighs, before turning towards the mountain village he sees nearby.
===Early===
He heads closer and closer. The village is settled onto a more plain part of the range. The main trail has a lot of more commercial buildings perched around it while, off to the side, there's buildings for housing. The various animals around here are wearing thick coats to withstand the altitude, though it's not too terribly cold. The buildings around brandish the image of the Dragon as well. This is the village of '''Surgona'''. As he goes in, one of the villagers sees the Dragon, and are surprised. They turn back to the village and wave and shout. The other villagers start to come out, and see him, each seeming surprised to see Demiurge.  

As he looks over the lot of them, someone raises their voice, telling the others to settle down. Demiurge looks down at whoever is stepping up, and sees a short goat guy, fur forming a beard below his chin, and him wearing a red robe with a naginata pinned to his back. He tells them to settle down, that they shouldn't crowd around the visitor so quickly. He turns to the Dragon and apologizes for the intrusion. He then asks him whether his eyes are betraying him or not. If he is, in fact, seeing the Dragon of old. Demiurge confirms that he is the Dragon.

The goat is excited to see the divine being in their village! He introduces himself as '''Agovon'''. Demiurge welcomes him, and says that he's been asleep for a long time. He wants to know what's gone on while he slept. Agovon says that it's been 500 years, there's a lot of ground to cover, to which Demiurge asks for as succinct yet detailed a summary he can. The goat says that ever since the Monsters went extinct, Onah would continue the mission she'd started since it was interrupted. She understood Happiness was the purpose of life, but would understand that her perception of Happiness was limited. Thus, the villagers would begin to set out in order to uncover more of the world and get a greater understanding of this purpose.

Villages are being established all around to try and ascertain this purpose. Demiurge supposes that sounds nice enough, and he wonders if purpose is being made. Agovon, however, answers that that answer seems to be different from person to person. He himself is going to try and find that journey soon. Demiurge asks what he intends to do, to which the goat answers he's about to attend one of those pilgrimages to try and get himself an understanding. He's actually about to have himself one last dinner here. Demiurge says that he'd like to come along, get to see the villages that've sprung up while he slept. Agovon tells him that he'll be happy to have a companion like him along. 

With that, the player has joined Agovon, and a quick transition to evening occurs.
----
Night is coming, and right now, Agovon is attending a building with the sign of a ham over it. Said goat is being accompanied by an older looking goat man and a couguar woman. The cougar says that they hadn't expected to see the Dragon himself to come along to help their son. The older goat says that their son is going to become a wiser man, but he should handle himself much better while Demiurge is alongside him. The bronze Dragon assures that he'll keep him safe. Agovon says that they'll be eating now, and whenever he wishes, he can join them. They'll save a seat at their table.

Before that, players are allowed to go around the village to get a read on it. 
*Towards either edge of the village, players can find several villagers gathered around and looking over the edge. Several of them comment about how eye opening it is, looking out over the world from this height. Some towards the eastern edge will look towards the larger mountain in the distance. They'll comment that some have tried to go up there to form some sort of village, but at least right now, it's proven to be a bit too hazardous a journey. Furthermore, just looking out from here can show a fair few villages scattered around the area; some rustic, some looking more advanced. Demiurge can't get much of a read on them from here.
*There's a temple designed with imagery of the Dragon, Demiurge's large wings seen caressing the various mortals around the world. Inside, a fox lady dressed somewhat akin to Onah, greets the Dragon. Demiurge greets her as well, and assumes she's an Oracle, to which she affirms as much. She's '''Oracle Oloka''', here to help with enlightenment. Demiurge asks how Onah's teachings have changed, to which the fox explains that the path to Happiness has always been a hotly debated topic around the world, and right now they're all trying to ascertain just what that path should be. Demiurge wishes her luck with her future, and she thanks him for that.
*The settlement itself seems to have fairly few commercial buildings and focus more on living spaces. The commercial buildings that are there include the main building for feast (where Agovon and family are attending), a building that offers armor and weaponry (run by a hedgehog man), and a building that offers general goods (run by a lemur man). A few people comment about the various commercial buildings necessitating workers to keep themselves up to snuff, which allows them to earn gold that they spend back on those services. A few others note that they've gotten a fair few many people in their place, and they hope that they don't run out of space for people to live in.

Eventually, the Dragon decides to join Agovon to eat, having some hearty mutton. The parents describe the goat as a spirited young man who's very excited to expand his mind. Demiurge asks if pilgrimage is common, to which the parents explain that it's a rite offered by the many villages around the world. Everyone's encouraged to take it, but not everyone's willing to go around the world to do it. Truthfully, this is a task that not everyone can achieve, though they'd expect no less from the action which'd net the answer to life.

They eventually wrap up their meal, and Demiurge thanks them for the meal. They say that they should be thanking him, offering to help out their son. The mother then asks if he has anywhere to rest, to which the Dragon says he's sure he can find something out. However, they insist that he spend the night with them. Asomov tells him that it'll just be one night. He's sure there'll be no problem having him around. The Dragon accepts their offer, and thus, players rest, though the Dragon thinks back to Sophia's non-answer earlier that day. Perhaps that's just another test the Dragons are to achieve on their own. Maybe it's just like learning about the world, her saying that she can't just tell him that. Still, it's weird that she didn't even comment about that. He has a contemplative pause, before telling himself that he's being ridiculous. Sophia's a powerful Dragon. If anyone would know, then she would. 

With that, he rests, ready for the next day. 

;Augua 14th

The next day comes, and with it, Demiurge and Agovon begin heading towards the trail, heading North down the mountain trail. Agovon's parents can be seen accompanying the group, and wish the duo well. Agovon swears that they'll be safe, and Demiurge tells them that he'll keep them safe. With that, the duo begins to head down the mountain. Demiurge asks the goat what's north of this village, to which the goat says that this trail heads all the way to the western shore. Between here and there is a village frequently use for resting, '''Sirtoba''', and the village at the shore is a medical capital, '''Erronus'''. So, they'll make a pitstop at Sirtoba, before continuing onto the Erronus.

The duo keeps on walking down the trail, where their passage onwards starts to get interrupted by some noises nearby. The duo turns, confused at the sounds. Looking towards it, they'd see... a pair of cougars. They seem to be eyeing up the duo, and Agovon tells Demiurge to take up arms. The big cats come closer, and the goat draws his naginata, Demiurge taking up his own weapon. Demiurge asks Agovon how knowledgeable he is in combat, to which the goat says that the Oracle helped teach him a few magics and physical strikes. He just hopes that they'll pull off well, especially alongside the Dragon. 

With that, the duo is forced to battle the '''Two Cougars'''. With Agovon alongside him, players are able to learn what the goat can do. Said goat can use the Naginata to deal Slash damage. He also has access to Healing magic, and some minor Freezing magic, which should certainly stop the enemies in their tracks, while also leaving them open to a painful attack. With the duo's combined efforts, they should be able to overwhelm the cougars, and the two of them will be forced to flee. Agovon sighs and sheathes his weapon, before turning to the Dragon. He tells him that he did amazing there, and that he's sure they'll do well on the oncoming pilgrimage. Demiurge says he'll do what he can to keep him safe. 

With that, they keep on the trail.
----
Eventually, they make it down the mountain trail, and are upon the rolling hills that the Lord of the Land originally ruled over. The trail they're on weaves around the rolling hills westwards, and the duo goes on, having to be weary of any other creatures they encounter on their way. They walk and walk, before eventually making it towards a plain on the way to the edge. And in said plain is a village set up, arranged in a fashion similar to Sinnoa. And upon approaching the front gates, players are informed that this is '''Sirtoba'''.

Agovon confirms that this is where they are to rest. Demiurge supposes it'd be nice to freshen up after that long walk, to which the goat nods in affirmation. They thusly stepped in, going past the gates and into the village of Sirtoba. And inside, Demiurge can't help but mentally note how very similar it seems to Sinnoa of old. However, he does notice some architecture akin to what was in Tula. Among which includes some bath houses, a shrine, and apparently some inns. Agovon says that Surgona itself should probably look into some of these facilities, to which Demiurge supposes this trail to enlightenment is already bearing some fruit. 

The duo look up at the sky, and see that it's getting dark. Demiurge asks what the plan is for now, to which the goat says they'll have to take some time to stock up before going onwards, he thinks. He thinks he'd like at least a day to keep himself in good condition. Demiurge says that it sounds nice to be able to just settle down in a place for a little bit. With that, the duo heads over to the inn, where they find a room adjacent from the lobby reeking of alcohol and sounding of hollers within. Agovon can't help but grimace and pulls away from that doorway as he approaches the reception desk, where a tall, lilac-breasted roller woman, '''Delilah''', standing there.

Agovon greets the receptionist, and says that they're here for a room. The bird nods, saying that she'll be happy to see them to their room. She then glances towards the Dragon, raising a brow curious. The Dragon looks at her curious, and is subjected to a few curious pats from her. Delilah pulls away, surprised that it is indeed the Dragon before them. Demiurge affirms as much, a little uncomfortable, though the lilac-breasted roller pulls away, realizing she's invading his personal space. She apologizes for that, saying that he hadn't expected to see something like him before them. Demiurge says that he understands, and that he has no ill will. Either way, she leads them through the inn, soon bringing them to a room. 

The duo stepped in, Agovon offering Delilah the payment. She'd thank them and head off, while the two were allowed in their quaint little room. They'd step in, and Agovon says that they should probably hit the bath house tomorrow. Demiurge sniffs at himself before grimacing, agreeing to that. With that, they start to rest, though Demiurge notices that the goat is taking a while to go to sleep. Demiurge asks if he's ok, to which the monk replies that it just feels weird, going to sleep away from the family. The bronze Dragon takes pause, and says that he knows how that feels a little bit. The two of them are away from home so that they can grow, so grow they shall. And someday they'll come back home a greater person than before. Agovon supposes he's right, and says that it is too early to regret this pilgrimage.

With that, the duo rest.

;Augua 15th

The next day comes, and the duo is out of the room. And once out, Agovon says that it's early still, so they should have access to the bath house. Demiurge peeks out, and notes that it's still dark. Agovon says that they'll have more time for sunlight later. For now, the duo are making their way out onto the village, and towards the bath house. They're let in, and quickly pay for a room, before heading in. The two are in adjacent stalls and showering up, and as they do, Agovon speaks up, and says he'd like to talk to him about something. Demiurge points out that it tends to be weird for people to talk to each other during a bath, though the goat apologizes and says that the thought only recently came to him. 

He says that they're seeing plenty of strangeness around here, among which includes those drinks in the inn. Surgona has some, but they don't offer them to those under 23. He thinks that he saw a few younger over there, and supposes he should try some sometime. Demiurge says that his caretaker always said that drinks like those are usually the sort you drink when you don't have any plans for a few hours. The goat supposes they should try that stuff later in the day. For now, though, they should check out the rest of the village, see if there's anything too different from Surgona. 

They soon finish off the bath, and begin to head out. However, as they begin to head out, they step right in front of a white ferret woman. The duo and the lady stumble to prevent themselves from colliding, with Agovon apologizing. However, the lady is immediately snappy at him, telling him to watch where the hell he's going. Agovon apologizes sincerely and backs away, the ferret storming past the two and making her way out. And after that, Demiurge's eyes widened, and he tries to get her attention, saying she forgot her clothes. However, she seems to be far away right now. Agovon asks Demiurge if they should check her out later, thought he Dragon says that he's kind of afraid to approach her. The goat sighs and supposes that they have their own mission to work on. Look around town, try and find out various ways that make it different from Surgona, and see how that expands their knowledge on the path to Happiness.
----
Players are thusly tasked with going around town in order to ascertain what kind of things are going on in Sirtoba. This involves checking out a few key points on the map.
*Players can inquire into the bath house to find out about it. There, they learn that the house is used to allow people to clean themselves off. People of old uncovered an underwater spring, and had built there place over it. They designed a water system to capitalize on it, and utilize water crystals to wipe out whatever impurities end up in the system. Workers there comment that some people spend hours in these bath houses. Demiurge asks if it might be possible to have one of these go to a house, to which the staff replies that they haven't yet figured out how to send the warm water throughout the village.
*Players can inquire into the inns to find out about them. Delilah comments that these buildings were come up when the houses they'd built before became less and less. The living spaces here are far smaller than what houses offer, but they offer necessary services to those that visit. She says she's not sure when any new houses will be set up, but she assures these inns are temporary. Demiurge asks about the drinking area, to which she says that a lot of guests like to head there to hang out. She herself sneaks a drink or two.
*Players can inquire into the shrine in the village. It's a fairly small hut that appears to contain a statue depicting the Dragon. Some people nearby comment that people pray to the statue to gift them Enlightenment into the journey to Happiness. A lot of people take comfort in the planet's guardian. Demiurge comments that the last village he was in had a temple to accomplish a similar goal, to which the people he's talking to comment that they have one of those too, that they tend to be very, very religious.
*Players can notice a few people outside of the bath house gossiping. Listening to them reveals they're talking about the weasel woman. They comment that she hasn't been out recently at all. One comments that they could smell her from yards away, one comments that she came out naked, one comments that she ran off as fast as possible. One comments that she always stays indoors, and wonders what she could possibly be doing for fun.

After investigating the locals, players meet up with Agovon. The goat replies that there's some quite interesting details around here. Demiurge exchanges what he's learned, and the goat remarks that he's learned some interesting things. He is curious about that weasel, though. It sounds like she might be a talking point around this town. Demiurge asks him if he'd really like to seek her out, to which the goat says he's not sure right now, might come off as weird. He thinks for now they should probably wait until they bump into her again, or find out what else the people around here have to say about her. 

Anyways, he notes that it's getting dark. He thinks they should check out that strange room they saw over in the inn. Demiurge supposes similarly, and says he's ready to go. Thus, they begin heading over to the inn from last night.
----
The duo approaches the inn, and steps in. The interior is fairly rambunctious, with various attendees hollering as they beg for more brew. Agovon notes that it's quite noisy, and wretches, noting that it reeks here too. The voice of Delilah points out that the guys around here tend to have no shame the more they drink. They look, and see the bird over at a corner. She motions the two over, and thus they sit down at the table she's at. She says that she thought she'd keep a table for them, seeing as they came here asking about getting drinks. 

Demiurge asks what the deal with these drinks are, to which she says that on top of having a good taste, they can also be used to dull the senses a little in order to make one feel more at ease with whatever's going on around in their life. Demiurge remarks that that sounds kind of dangerous, to which the lilac-breasted roller affirms that they have discovered a few issues with drinking. That's why they're taking to limiting the drinks they hand out. She considered herself a bit of a connoisseur, and decided to buy a couple drinks that she thinks would be good for newbies. And thus, she presents a couple of decently sized mugs for the two of them. 

The duo looked down at the mugs, before taking them up. Agovon asks if they just drink them, to which Delilah jokes that "No, you photosyntehsize it". The duo drinks. Agovon's eyes widen at the taste of it, and he remarks that it has a strong taste. Demiurge coughs briefly, sighing and saying that he never knew what these drinks would taste like, but he never really tasted these. Delilah says that it's a bit of an acquired taste, but says that once you get into them it's hard to let it go. Agovon decides to drink some more, and Demiurge also thinks to drink a little. 

The duo drink more and more, and Delilah says that they're getting the hang of it. Agovon says that he's not sure if he really understands the appeal just yet, to which Delilah says that once he goes through a bit of work he'll understand. Agovon keeps drinking, and Demiurge also drinks a little bit. Though as he does, he almost feels... lighter. Deep down, he's been feeling stressed, and this brew feels like it's making him leak out and out. He thus takes the mug and tilts it up to let gravity send it down his throat. He can faintly hear Delilah tell him to slow down a little. However, he tilts too far back and falls onto his back, blacking out as the alcohol takes hold.

...

Deep in his mind, he stirs up on his feet, and finds himself... on the Draconic Gardens. Except, the colors all around are weird. Players are prompted to move around the field to try and get a read on what he's doing over here. Demiurge wonders if that was all a dream, that planet he'd been on. He walks and walks, and eventually approaches the edge of the Gardens. He comes close to the edge and looks down, where he sees a sight he'd seen around a thousand years ago, the planet. And as he looks down at it, he hears a very familiar voice ask him what he's doing.

He turns, and sees Sophia up on the platform with him. He asks her what's happened, to which she says that he's supposed to know that. Demiurge says that he doesn't understand, and Sophia gets closer. She says that he should know. She repeats that he should know, he should know, he should know. Demiurge steps back in some worry, though feels the edge of the Gardens behind him. He asks her what she's talking about, why he's here. Suddenly, she's right in front of him, giving him barely a foot of space. She tells him that he has a duty to fulfill, before pushing him forwards. He's shoved off the edge and finds himself hurtling back to the platform, screaming as gravity takes him back down...

...

;Augua 16th

Demiurge shoots up in a bed, screaming. He pants and pants and glances around, looking himself in a room he's unfamiliar with. It looks sort of like the inn room he'd slept in last night, but covered in personalized decorations, among which looks like jewelry adorned with a very familiar set of feathers. As he looks over them, he notices Delilah on a couch nearby, asking him if he's ok. Demiurge asks what happened, to which she replied that he passed out during their drink-fest yesterday, and she wanted to bring him somewhere safe while he was out. 

Demiurge blushes and apologizes about that, though Delilah assures that it's fine. He's a first timer. In all honesty, she'd expected him to end up pissing himself or something. Demiurge blushes deeper, and Delilah asks if he's feeling alright, that he screamed pretty loud there. Demiurge assures it's nothing, and though Delilah clearly knows something is going on, she feels that she shouldn't press him on this for now. Demiurge asks how Agovon is, to which Delilah says she asked a friend to keep an eye on him while she watched him. She says that she'll be sure to lead him to him, to which Demiurge thanks her. 
----
Demiurge gets led out of the inn, and towards a house towards the edge of the village. And there, Delilah gives the door a particular knock. The door opens slightly, and when whoever's inside sees it's the bird, the door opens up, revealing them to be the weasel from the bath house. She sees Demiurge, and she takes pause. Demiurge greets her, and apologizes about stepping in front of her when the two of them did. The weasel, however, says that it's nothing, she was just in a mood. Anyways, she points out, his friend is resting inside.

Thus they enter, and find Agovon resting on a couch. Demiurge asks how he's doing, to which the goat says that he'd alright, but says that he should be asking him how he is. Demiurge says that he was handled well. And as they're inside, Demiurge starts to note the house itself. There's trash around the place, clothes hung around seemingly at random, wine stains around the area... the place looks unkempt. Demiurge asks the weasel what's gone on around here, to which the weasel explains that she doesn't have the energy. Agovon says that even children can handle their rooms better than this, to which Delilah says that he really shouldn't speak without really knowing about her. 

The weasel, however, says that he's right. She really should get around to cleaning up... maybe later... Delilah's expression lowers, and she tells the weasel to lay down and rest somewhere, referring to her as '''Miranda'''. The weasel says that if this is all they needed her for, she's ok to disappear. And thus she walks away. Delilah glowers towards Agovon, saying that he really messed up. Agovon swears he's telling the truth, and that she'd been rather rude to them on their first meeting. Delilah says that she's got a lot going on with her right now. The goat asks what's gone on to justify this state? Delilah says that she doesn't want Miranda to know she told them this...

She got in a relationship with a woman a while ago, and they adored each other. They were apparently childhood friends, and she ended up pouring much of her adult life into making her happy. She'd even proposed to her a few weeks ago. However, before they could wed, her SO was out hunting. One tough feral got her unawares, and Miranda came to learn of her unfortunate passing. And there, she began to fall in a spiral. She lost the will to do much of anything ever since. And the less she was able to do, the more her energy plummeted. When she lost her lady, she couldn't go to work. When she couldn't go to work, she got fired. When she got fired, she felt unable to really do anything for the village. And when she felt unable to really do anything for the village, she felt unable to do anything period. And now, she spends days in this place, only occasionally stepping out to even bathe. 

The two are stunned at all of that information. Agovon says he didn't realize, and apologizes. Delilah sighs and says that she shouldn't have talked like that, it's not like he knew. Demiurge asks if anyone's helped her, to which Delilah says that no one really knows how to. Friends have tried to buy trinkets to take her mind off of it, but really, how does someone make someone move on from the loss of a loved one. As the friend group grew less and less able to figure out how to help her, they sort of drifted away. Right now, she's pretty sure she's the only one who's keeping in contact with her. The duo take pause, and there's a palpable silence. 

Agovon says that they're on a quest to find out the path to Happiness. If they find that, maybe they can bring Happiness to Miranda too. Delilah says that that sounds like a good theory, but they as a species have been looking for that answer for a while now, and she's not sure how they'll uncover that. Agovon points out that the Dragon graces this journey, so maybe they'll discover it themselves. The bird mulls over that, and supposes that he might have a point. She says that she'll try and find some sort of arrangement for work, and see whether or not she can join them in their quest. Agovon says that they could use whatever help they could, but warns that it'll be a long journey. This pilgrimage will take them around the world. Delilah says that if it'll help Miranda out of her funk, she's happy to help.

With that, the lot of them leave the house, and Delilah says she'll meet up with them later. For now, she says they should hang out around the city to find something to do.
----
And with this, players are allowed a really brief period of free time with Agovon, during which they can hang out, gather equipment, or do a sidequest or two. 

When night comes, the duo makes their way to the inn, where Delilah is waiting. She says that her boss was able to get someone to take her position for the foreseeable future. She says she'll be happy to come along and help them find the path to Happiness. Agovon is thankful for the aid. He says that they'll be free to go tomorrow, they kind of tired themselves out this morning. The roller nods, and says that she'll make sure she's bright and early. First, though, Agovon asks whether or not they can bring Miranda. Demiurge says that that sound like a good idea, and Delilah says that that'd be ideal, but given her condition, she's not sure whether she'll come along or not. 

Demiurge supposes that whatever she chooses, it'd be important to keep in contact with her. Delilah agrees, and says that she'll visit her briefly before meeting them. However, she warns that there's word of bandits surrounded the trail towards Erronus. Agovon supposes that's just their like. Delilah assures that it'll be fine, she's done some hunting before she became the inn's receptionist. She actually doubles as a bouncer for the inn. Demiurge says they'll deal with this later, but for now they should get rest and later meet up to go out.

;Augua 17th

The next morning comes, and Demiurge and Agovon head out, seeing a flamingo is already manning the front desk. They head towards the gate towards the west, and wait. Soon enough, Delilah comes. Demiurge asks how it went, to which the lilac-breasted roller says that she didn't want to go anywhere anytime soon, and that she'd rather get letters. Agovon says that that's unfortunate... He swears that they'll find the answer they're looking for, and Delilah says that she hopes so. She searches her pockets real quick, revealing a set of Knuckles. She says that she packed up a little bit to prepare for the trip out.

With that, the gang begins to head out.
----
The team is now stepping onto the trail to Erronus, and begin heading over. As they walk, they look around the general area, trying to keep an eye out for foes that could be on their way. Agovon asks Delilah if she's been out of Sirtoba recently, to which she says she's been born and raised there all her life. Agovon says that he too was born and raised in his own village, Surgona. Apparently the village was established because people back in the day believed the aesthetic leaves the mind open for enlightenment. Delilah asks if that's the case, why the need for this Pilgrimage. Agovon says that the people of old clearly only hypothesized. 

Though as they walked, an arrow impales the dirt in front of them. They each stop, and look towards the source, where they see a raccoon woman in leather wielding a bow. A couple other bandits start to come out, and they tell the group that they're trespassing. And if they want to go out alive, they need to pay up. Agovon says that this road is supposed to be free for anyone to walk around! Delilah tells the goat to forgeet it, that they can't reason with this group of enemies. She pulls out the Knuckles showed off before, and wears them as she steps forwards. She says that guys like these they have to beat reason into.

With that, players are forced into a fight with the bandits, the lot of them having a fairly straightforward fighting style. Through this, players get to learn about Delilah herself. She can be considered a tank. She has access to the Rage ailment, thus forcing enemies to focus on her. She can also use the Knuckles to deal Smash damage to targets, and she also has access to Wind magic. She can also inflict herself with an ailment that heightens her Strength but forces her to deliver normal attacks to the enemies. With her, the players should be able to overwhelm the bandits.

With them taken down, the bandits say that they're too strong, and are forced to run away. Delilah sighs and says that that's one issue out of their way, and there'll probably be more. She says they should keep moving. However, Agovon speaks up. He says that if guys like that are taking the road, then any future Pilgrimages will be in jeopardy. Delilah asks if he thinks they really should take care of the rest of these dirtbags. Agovon says that it might be the right thing to do. These guys are impeding the path to Happiness, and they shouldn't deny that path to others. Demiurge says that he has a point. Delilah sighs and says that if the majority agrees, she'll tag along. But, she says, that they can't take too long on it. They still have people to make Happy, don't they? Demiurge agrees, and says that they should take care of these bandits swiftly. 

With that, players are given a new mission: Clear away the bandits on the Sirtoba-Erronus trail so that it's safer to travel.

;Augua 17th - Augua 25th

With this, players are given a task along the Sirtoba-Erronus trail, to clear the bandits that line it. This involves going around the trail and investigating large concentrations of bandits along the way from here to the western shore. The way to it is relatively long, and the plains along the way are dotted with hills and forests. Players will have to contend with various camps along the way, from those out in the plains to those out in forests. And along the way, there are more ferals and bandits they'll have to take down. There are three camps players will have to eliminate on their way to Erronus. 
*The first camp is far off the trail, but has bandits come from it and to the trail. Said camp is south near the sea, and going there they find a select few tents. They make it there, and bandits within the tents come out and spy the party. One of them asks what they're doing here, to which Agovon says that they've been bullying the trail for too long, and they're here to drive them out. The bandits, however, say that they're not going to bow to a bunch of random travelers. They couldn't get this far without grit, they're no pushovers! Delilah says that they should've expected pushback and draws her weapons. Like that, players are forced to battle the '''Bandit Horde'''. It shouldn't be hard to beat them, especially with Delilah's Rage ailment. The party should beat them simply enough, and with them down, they're left weak. Agovon tells them to leave and live honest lives. The bandits say that they'll try, and thus leave the camp. Delilah says that that's one more down, and the road a little safer.
*The second camp is arranged in a patch of trees nearly adjacent to the trail. There's an exceptionally high concentration of bandits in the area, and players will have to brave them to get to the epicenter of the rogues. And once in there, they uncover a few tougher bandits, them aligned with a rugged wolf man with a large club. Said wolf says that rumor's spread about their trio causing trouble around these parts. Agovon points out that they're the ones causing troubles, to which the wolf says that they do this because they have nothing else. Demiurge asks what he means, to which the wolf says that housing runs out, money runs out, and they have to act. Agovon says that that's no reason to attack people on the road, to which the wolf says that they merely attack those with a better lot than them. He then says that they've talked enough, and orders an attack. With that, players are forced into battle with '''Tegra''' and a pair of associates. Tegra himself wields high attack power, and the "Charge" ability, so he's rather tough, though Delilah's tanking helps mitigate the damage. With enough work, players should be able to overwhelm them, forcing Tegra to flee and disbanding the camp. Delilah points out that one more group is down, to which Demiurge asks if that wolf was correct about them being forced into this. Delilah says that some villages have noted the birthrate is faster than the build rate of houses. Some Elatkan teachings have led some to believe that those that work would rightfully own houses, so some villages set it such that some have to meet a deadline in order to keep their houses, else it goes to someone else. She, however, points out that homes usually go to people with more money, so those that don't have access to it suffer. Demiurge says that that sounds terrible, to which she affirms that it is, but it's not like she'll be able to fix it.
*The third camp is set up in a patch of trees far from the trail and into the plains. And there players have to tend to a cloud of bandits before they make it in, where they find a squirrel woman with a spear at her back. She hears that this group of travelers have been tearing down their forces, to which Delilah says that their group deserves to be torn down. Demiurge says that he'd like to get through this without hurting them, and asks that she just throws down her weapons. However, she says that she has a score to settle with the guys that threw her out. When she was born, there wasn't a home available to her, so why shouldn't she be mad? Demiurge asks what she means, but she says she doesn't care about talking. Players are forced into battle with '''Nol'''. The latter wields impressive magic attacks, and "Concentrate". This can be dangerous, though her lower defense allows players to shred through her health with enough work. And with that, she's forced to flee. Demiurge asks Delilah what she was talking about, to which Delilah explains that housing is not perfect. Birthrates are higher than building rates, so in societies where housing isn't paid for, homes are typically held onto for years upon years. Demiurge asks how those homes are supposed to go to anyone, though Delilah says that she doesn't really get the logic, but apparently the idea is that either elders are supposed to give them to younger ones, or people are intended to go out, enlighten themselves on the rest of the world, and get new homes. Demiurge says that that sounds inconvenient, to which the bird says that it is.

Once the camps are cleared, Agovon says that the road feels a lot safer. Delilah supposes that he's right, and that it doesn't hurt to have a little less rabble on the road. Demiurge, however, is a bit uncomfortable. He says that it sounds like these guys got in a bad situation, to which Agovon says that it doesn't excuse hurting people. Delilah says that he'll be the kind of person that'll fix that, surely. He is the Dragon after all. Either way, they have Erronus to see. As they do, though, Agovon looks in the distance, and says he sees several of the bandits gathered up in the middle of the road. 

Looking where he's looking, they see indeed Tegra and Nol, though they're accompanied by a third stranger. Delilah groans and says that they're relentless! Agovon says that if they leave them alone now, all of their efforts will've been for naught! Demiurge says that they were pretty tough, and they now have an unknown element. They shall engage them only when they're ready. With that, players have the boss of the area to contend with.
----
With that, the group meets up with the trio in the middle of the road. There, the enemy team of Tegra, Nol, and the third individual, a red panda woman, looks over the lot of them. Tegra says that they've destroyed tons of organized work, that they've set back their operations by months. Delilah says that their little operations deserve to be torn down. Demiurge, however, says that he understands they're suffering. He says that he'd like to help them out, without getting anyone hurt. Nol asks if he can just magically create several houses, to which Demiurge sheepishly answers that he can't. 

The red panda says that the people at large promise to give the resources these people need, but that'll only come in years. And they don't have years. They need to do whatever it takes to get what they need. Agovon speaks up, saying that they're merely making other people unhappy. He points out that their work out here isn't making them any happier, and that they merely leave travelers scared and isolated. The red panda seems shaken at that, though she shakes her head. She simply says that she doesn't have to justify themselves to them. She says that they'll simply destroy them, here and now.

With that players are forced to battle '''Tegra''', '''Nol''', and '''Heltoba'''. Tegra and Nol are physical and magical damage respectively, while Heltoba is mainly a support force. She actually has the ability to heal either Tegra and Nol, can increase their attack power, and perhaps most dangerous is her ability to cast "Impale", which makes it so the subject of the buff ignores any Affinities on the target. This can essentially make it so that Tegra or Nol are able to bypass any Resistances on the party team. Players should be careful during this fight and mind when to defend and whatnot. But with enough work, they should be able to take down the trio of bandits. 

The three of them are down, panting and panting. Delilah looks over them, and says that they each played with fire, and they got burned. Tegra says that after all of this, they'll welcome their death. They'd prefer it to the life they'd live otherwise. Agovon, however, says that they're not here to kill them. Demiurge says that they've done a lot of bad things, but it sounds like they got dealt a bad hand too. If they can, he'd like to lend them some help. Delilah says that she knows a few open houses, and maybe she can give them a bit of a discount. Heltoba says that surely they won't be able to get everyone a home, to which she says that that'll be true. It's not much, but it's all she has.

The three look among each other, before saying that if what they offer true, then they'd appreciate it. Delilah says that she offers it in exchange for them ''stopping'' the bandit attacks. Tegra says that if this relation is kept up, he'll try and keep attacks down. However, he cannot answer for everyone's compliance. Delilah supposes that as long as a lot of their attacks are down, that'll be fine. Nol says that she's sure that this'll reduce attacks, but there are more people out there that'll have their mindset. Delilah says that they'll handle those too. And with that, the group splits.
----
With this, the team is able to go forwards through the trail, Delilah remarking that that was a fair bit of a diversion, but that should make the roads a little safer. Demiurge, however, says that it sounds like a lot of people aren't in good conditions for this world. The bird affirms that the leaders that fashioned this world clearly hadn't thought everything through, but that the people that'll lead the modern world will hopefully set that on track. For now, though, they have a pilgrimage to accomplish, don't they? Agovon affirms as much, and says that now sounds like a good time to complete their journey to Erronus.

With that, players will be able to make their way to the city on the coast.
----
The group approaches Erronus, the city boasting thick, stone walls with elaborately decorated buildings within. The beach itself has also been rearranged. Channels have been dug through it while cement has been used to pack passages together, creating decently-sized passages for the ocean to flow through. The buildings have been poached upon slabs of stone that've been dug through the sand to establish a firm foundation, each building having a fairly fancy look, with mild bits of water damage on some of them, though some animals can be seen working on them even as the group comes in.

Agovon says that this city's been touted as the medical capital of the world, making strides in the field of medicine and advancing Restoration magic. Delilah says that this place has been shipping out medicine to the major settlements. However, it sounds like they've been moving away from religious practice in their continuing pursuit. Demiurge asks what kind of medicine and restorations they've been discovering, to which Delilah says that they've practically mastered suturing wounds, and some say they're even investigating into regenerating whole limbs. They've also been able to stave off a few diseases cropping up. Demiurge says that that all sounds really good. 

Agovon says that they'll have to set up shop here sometime and inquire in them about their methods, and about the ways this stuff helps them towards Happiness. That is part of the Pilgrimage after all. The lilac-breasted roller agrees, and says that after the day they've had, they should nap. The group agrees, and takes rest at a nearby inn.

;Next Day

The next morning comes, the group meeting up in the lobby. With this, Delilah supposes the plan is to inquire about all of that medical stuff and how they feel about it. She asks how they'll investigate into that, she doubts the doctors'll just let them into their personal quarters or whatever. Demiurge supposes that that's a good question. However, as he contemplates on this, a rat man in the lobby takes notice of the trio. Specifically of the bronze dragon. He comes close, and asks if he is who he thinks he is. The Dragon looks towards him curious, and says that he'll have to be more specific. 

The rat touches the Dragon, and declares that he is indeed ''the'' Dragon! He says that they need an audience, asap! Demiurge asks what it is, and he leans in close and starts whispering. He says he's part of a very important medical facility, and they're making an insane breakthrough. They say they need the Dragon to attend. Demiurge says that he'd love to see whatever they got, and says he'll come along. However, the rat says that he can't come quite yet. They're currently organizing the details about the breakthrough, and says that it should be ready to present on Augua 26th. Demiurge says that he'll be ready, and asks if he can bring these other two along. He says that that's fine, and heads off, saying that the others will be made aware of his coming. 

Agovon says that it must be fate, though Delilah wonders what's so interesting that they beseeched the Dragon directly over it. Demiurge supposes that they'll have to wait to find out. Either way, they'll be able to answer their questions then. 
----
With that, players now have free time. They can go around either settlement or explore the trail between, and hang out and do sidequests. Eventually, the day of Augua 26th comes.

;Augua 26th

The next day comes, and the party makes their way out and to the lobby. And there, they see the rat waiting. He greets them and says that the lab's ready to see them. Delilah asks what's going on, to which he says that he can't go too public about it yet. For now, he asks them to follow. Thus, the trio follows him out of the lobby, and towards one of the buildings. After a secret knock, the group is let in, and they inside appears fairly rustic, featuring three floors and a winding staircase, along with portraits around featuring various biological structures.

The trio is greeted by a horse man, spying the Dragon and excitedly greeting him, and introducing himself as '''Bosala'''. Demiurge greets him back and introduces the rest of the trio, Delilah and Agovon. He then asks him what they've been brought here to see. The horse supposes that considering the short notice he really should be prudent. Anyways, he feels that before he explains what he wants to show them, he wants to explain a detail recent research has revealed. Demiurge asks what they've found out, to which Bosala asks them to come along.

There've been reports of people struggling to be happy, and have even struggled to do basic day to day activities. Many have tried to help many of these reported people, though they simply refused to get happy. So, they've done some investigation into those people, and have uncovered interesting details. Sometimes this disorder is inherited by previous family members, sometimes it's spurred on by irl events, but whatever the case, something happens in an individual that prevents dopamine, a chemical that helps one feel happy, to flow. Hearing that, Delilah thinks back to Miranda, asking what determines whether or not someone is suffering that disorder. Bosala explains that though the process of identifying whether or not someone is suffering this disorder is lengthy, signs of one suffering it could be a persistent, debilitating depression that lasts for at least a couple of weeks.

Anyways, he and team have thought to look into producing these dopamine chemicals into distributable quantities. He thusly brings them to a table, brandishing a bottle full of purple liquid, which Bosola introduces as Happiness. Agovon furrows a brow, and asks if he's seriously suggesting that they've made Happiness in a bottle. Bosola affirms that that is the goal, though for now the quantities are limited, and the chemical is still in its experimentation phase. Delilah looks at it with a strange gleam in her eye, before asking Bosola if it's worked. The horse explains that they've thus far tried it out on ferals. They've had to surgically stunt dopamine production in a couple and attempted to inject it, and after a bit of experimentation, they think that they're getting close to a concrete cure for the disorder in everyday people.

Delilah then asks if it'll even work on people who have non-chemical reasons for being upset. Bosola asks what she means, to which the lilac-breasted roller explains that from his description, it sounds like this disorder could be brought on by events in a person's life. If this chemical is meant to apply dopamine or whatever, then will they really feel better as there's still those reasons to deal with? Bosola says that though it might not completely make a person happy, it should at the very least make them cognitive enough to function, if not put them on the road to recovery.

The trio is stunned at the information they've learned. Agovon says that something like this could be life-changing for the modern era, Bosola affirming as much. He says that this could be the greatest advancement in modern history. Demiurge, however, says that this is too good to be true, that this must be a dream. The horse says that right now, unfortunately, it is a dream. They need supplies to produce more of this chemical, and they need to affirm that it is functional. Delilah furrows her own brow and looks deep in thought. Demiurge says that he thinks they should reconvene on this issue and that they'll come back to him later on this. Bosola says that he wants dearly for them to help him in this research, but if they need to think over this, he understands.

Thus, the party steps out with a lot to consider.
===Midway===
The trio is outside, and Delilah says that it seems too good to be true: actual Happiness, able to be administered to a subject. Agovon agrees, and almost has to wonder if this is cheating in some way, shape, or form. Demiurge holds his own chin in contemplation, and says that he himself is uncertain about this. Delilah, however, says that if it does work the way Bosola says it does, then Miranda could be helped out of her funk! Agovon wonders whether or not they should comply with it so readily, it sounds like some vital parts are being messed with in order for it to function. 

Delilah sighs and supposes he's right. This is still a very strange medicine. She just really wants her to be able to live better... There's a pause among the group, before Demiurge says that he thinks they should try. It sounds like this is a serious enough issue to warrant the research, he thinks that maybe they should look into at least helping out those with the disorder. Agovon asks if it's really a lack of dopamine or whatever, and if they don't just need some support. Delilah says that he shouldn't just assume they aren't being supported. Agovon supposes that may be right.

Still, he can't shake the feeling that this doesn't feel right. Delilah says that none of them are versed in brain stuff, maybe that's why it doesn't feel right. It might only look like cheating because they don't know how tough the fight for something like this is. Agovon supposes that it only makes sense someone else is fighting for the path to Happiness. He just always thought that uncovering that path meant taking in the world and various aesthetics as a whole. He then decides that he thinks that they should look into this condition, ascertain just how dangerous it is and if what Bosola said was right. Demiurge supposes that it couldn't hurt.

In that case, Delilah supposes that if it'll set them on the right way, they may as well check this stuff out. She says they should ask around to either get to know about people with the condition, or get to know about where resources for this condition may be. And thus, they gang has a real brief mission for the day, to investigate into this disorder.
----
With that, players are tasked with going around the city to try and ascertain information about the disorder they learned. There are, fortunately, markers directing players to the appropriate locations.
*One location is a library a short walk away from Bosola's office. There, players find Delilah reading over a few books. She reads and reads, and she says that a lot of people've written about this stuff, but they say a lot of the same things. Low dopamine count, can be genetic, sometimes a result of external factors... Demiurge asks when it was first a thing, to which she says that a lot of these books suggest that it's always been a thing, but they've advanced enough to more easily identify the disorder, though the books warn that unless someone is very carefully examined, identification isn't an exact science.
*One location, an inn, has Agovon hanging out. He's apparently been asking around to see if anyone's been in a situation like Delilah, letting their room get dirty even as they reside in it seemingly forever. Apparently there've been a couple in that situation, just "content" with being in there and playing with who knows what while ordering food to come to them. Demiurge asks if he's been able to get in contact with any of them, to which the goat says that he tried, but when he went to one of the floors one of those individuals was reported to be on, he a bunch of flowers set at the door, and felt discouraged from searching for anyone.
*One location, a gazebo on the shore, has a family there. Interacting with them, players learn that the big brother of the family lost his job, and hasn't been the same since. He hasn't left his room in a while, and they can't remember the last time he even bathed. Demiurge asks what's been done for him, to which the parents say that they've tried to talk to him, but he hasn't been receptive to them. They've tried buying him some things he used to like, but that hasn't gotten him out of his room. They say that they're at their wits end, and don't know what to do about him.
*One location, a lab near Bosola's office, has a kind of dirty-looking fox lingering around. He sees Demiurge and tries to turn away, though the Dragon asks him if he's ok. The fox shrinks away and says he's fine. He's just trying to schedule an appointment. He sort of missed the last one, and it took him a lot of will power to get in contact with them again. Demiurge asks if he can help with whatever ails him, to which the fox says he's not sure if anyone can right now. He's been trying to enjoy himself, but the usual things aren't doing anything for him. He struggles to even have fun with his friends, and he feels so guilty he couldn't have gotten this dealt with sooner.

After all of that, the party meets back up. Agovon says that he'd never imagined anything like this happening. Delilah asks what things have been like up at his village, to which he says they haven't really dealt with any science-y stuff. Demiurge furrows his brow, before saying that after all they've learned, he thinks that they should check out this research, at least for the sake of the people suffering this affliction. And Delilah says that when it's good to be distributed, Miranda needs to be helped out.

Demiurge says that it's gotten late. They'll have to check out Bosola tomorrow.

;Augua 27th

The group wakes again, and makes their way to the horse they'd previously met. The doctor sees them and asks them if they're going to go through with it, and they answer that they thought long and hard about it, and they will. Bosola is grateful for the opportunity! He says that first they need to test this chemical on someone diagnosed with the disorder, and depending on the results, collect more material for it. It's required a lot of tuning of Restorative crystals in order to fix the dopamine supplies. 

Agovon asks the bird if she knows anyone, to which she says she wants to make sure it's safe before she subjects her to it. For now, though, she asks if he has any subjects. The horse says that he's trying to establish an appointment with someone, but several of them get a little scared of all of the medical talk. So, he's asking if maybe they can talk one of them into getting the application? Seeing as they seem at least accepting of this. Demiurge says that they should be able to get someone into it. 

Bosola says that he'll make sure all of his things are prepared while he waits. And thus, the group's tasked with going back out into Erronus in order to find someone diagnosed with the disorder that'll accept treatment. 
----
For now, the team is tasked with going around town and interacting with a few of the individuals. And among them is the fox from before. Interacting with him reveals that he couldn't bring himself to make the appointment. However, Demiurge says that someone else has an opening for him. The fox asks if he's certain, to which the Dragon assures that he is, that they'd be grateful to examine him. The fox asks for the location, and Demiurge points him, allowing him to go off.

With the new guy in tow, they return to Bosola's office, the horse looking over the fox and taking a few notes, gathering some of the information the fox gave Demiurge earlier. Bosola asks about this appointment he's been trying to make, to which the fox answers that he's been trying to get into contact with a therapist he kept hearing about, who says that he's supposed to help people feel better and whatnot. Bosola says that a man like that can certainly help someone in his kind of straights, but if he's suffering what he thinks he's suffering, then something more medical may be necessary. He notices the Dragon, though asks the fox to head over to the waiting room real quick. 

Bosola says that people tend to be uncomfortable when someone they don't know becomes privy to their secrets. Demiurge apologizes, though says that he had told him about his issues a short while ago. The horse supposes that this is true. Either way, he says that all of the symptoms are there, and the length of duration sounds about right. For now, though, he needs to first go through the proper diagnosis phase, and then apply the chemicals and get back to the group on results. Demiurge asks what they should do in the meantime, to which he says that he supposes they may as well enjoy the city for a little while. And with that, he sends the Dragon off, who explains the situation to the other party members and says that for now they can just hang out. 
----
People have free time for the rest of the day. 

;Augua 28th - Augua 29th

Further free time is allowed. Though now as the group goes around, Demiurge may start to notice some strange, gray-scaled viper woman in some noble-looking clothes now in the city. Interacting with her has her look to be reading from some book, though if players angle the camera correctly they can see her following Demiurge from a "safe distance".

;Augua 30th

The next day comes. And as the day comes, the group's about to meet up, though as they do, they viper that's sometimes seen around town shows up. Demiurge sees her and greets her, saying that he saw her around town here and there. Agovon greets her as well, though Delilah looks over the woman's clothing and says that she knows this outfit, she says that that's '''Herkushol''' wear. Demiurge asks what that is, to which Agovon says that that sounds like the Holy State up north. The viper takes pause, though remarks that she should've probably assumed she couldn't hide that well. She affirms that she is indeed from Herkushol. 

Delilah asks what brings her here, to which the viper explains that word's spread along the grapevine up to the Holy State, and there's buzz all over about the Dragon, '''the''' Dragon, walks among them yet again. And, well, here he is. Demiurge says that he is indeed here, and the viper says that she thinks he should come to the Holy State. Demiurge says that he'd like to, but he's currently here on some business. The viper asks what business that may be, to which the Dragon seems ready to answer, though Delilah cuts him off, whispering to him that they should probably not reveal the project to these guys, that the Holy State is pursuing various avenues to that eternal question of Happiness, and if this gets leaked, especially before it's tested, it could lead to trouble. 

Demiurge says that he can't say exactly, but depending on conditions, a business nearby could use more of their assistance. The viper supposes that that makes sense, can't just break a promise. And then she asks what he's being requested to do for business, to which Demiurge says that it sounds like they ''might'' need some Restoration crystals in the near future, to which the Herkusholan says that that is a very rare substance. She asks if they might need help locating some, to which Demiurge says that they're not sure if she can really do anything. She says that Restorative crystals are still helpful to get a hand on, regardless of whatever the context is, so she may as well help them get it. Besides, anything to help the Dragon. 

Demiurge supposes that it couldn't hurt to go find one of these crystals. So, he accepts the help. The viper thanks him and says she'll do everything in her power to help out. She introduces herself as '''Labal''', Saint of Communication. And thus, the party grows more, and is suddenly granted a new mission: finding a substantial amount of Restorative crystals. 

;Augua 30th - Septmi 10th

With this, players are prompted to head out to the Erronus-Herkushol trail in order to start searching. Though as they head out and Labal begins leading, Demiurge can't help but be a bit curious. He thinks to ask the viper about what Herkushol is like, to which she says that it is the state that's the very heart of the world right now. It's been monitoring the villages that've sprung up, and is hereby monitoring interactions in order to make sure settlements are getting supplies necessary. Sometimes bandits get in the way, but the Saints are making great strides towards trying to fix that. They're currently trying to work with the metal capital, '''Sellogish''', to try and outfit people to battle them. Agovon says that that city is at the very end of the pilgrimage trail and then it'll be back to Surgona.

Delilah says that they could definitely use a lot more guards and whatnot. They just spent a lot of time clearing out a bunch of bandits. Labal says that she's grateful for the aid, though Delilah says that these guys went bandit because their housing situation. The viper says that the Saints are currently trying to fix the issue around housing and the many births, but for now they should just worry about those crystals. 

Either way, they keep walking and walking, though as they walk, going away from the shore and towards plains eastwards, a growling nearby gets their attention. They turn, and see a giant bison coming close. Seeing it come close, Delilah shouts that it's coming right at them! The party pulls their weapons, and Labal herself draws a weapon as well: a hasta. She says that none shall harm the Dragon. With that, players are forced into battle with the bison, and learn about Labal herself. With her hasta she deals Stabbing damage, and she has a lean towards ailment magic. She has access to Earth magic, to Smell, and to Poison, the latter of which proves useful in wearing down the enemy. And with enough effort, the bison is down.

With the foe down, the party is left panting and sheathes their weapons. Label says that it serves them right, threatening them like this. Delilah wonders why this thing was out all alone, and why it suddenly attacked them. Meanwhile, Demiurge starts to smell something. Curious, he leans in close and smells the creature's fur. Agovon recommends against that, saying that those ferals don't usually bathe. However, Demiurge says that he smells something, other than the foul fur. It smells like traces of magic... Restoration magic. The party is shocked at that, and Labal asks how he knows. Demiurge says that when learning of the magics of the universe, Dragons are taught to be very familiar with it, some teachers encouraging them to use all senses to know them.

Agovon wonders if they could potentially find wherever this thing came from, maybe they can find some of those crystals. So, Agovon offers to heal the bison up while the rest of the party gets away. He does so, and now the feral starts heading off northwards, Demiurge telling the group to follow it. 
----
The party follows the bison, and they find that the large feral had made its way towards a portion of the shore: a cavern towards the north that leads towards the mainland. Labal says that this place looks clear of any sapient influence: no signs of light sources or even guidelines. Demiurge says that he can still smell that Restorative magic on the bison within, to which Delilah says that they should carefully go through this. The group makes their way through the cavern, and finds themselves having to deal with a few more ferals within the cavern. They go deeper and deeper in, though find the way is maze-like. There are crustaceans and serpents throughout these caverns, and the party needs to be careful. As they progress through the caverns, they tend to speak with Labal from time to time. 

First, Delilah thinks to ask the viper about what those Saints are digging their heels in about this time. Labal assures that at the moment they've been balancing distribution among the settlements, though as of recent there've been noticing some shortages. So, they're going to organize some parties to go out and search for additional items. She understands that several could use additional aid, but portions of the Saints are focusing on trying to find additional stuff while others are trying to focus on the path to Happiness. 

Second, Agovon says that with how isolated his own homeland is, he can't help but be a little curious about what sort of advances he's missed out on. Labal points out that that's a rather broad subject to answer, and asks if there's anything in particular he wishes to know about. Agovon first asks if she's heard of the name "Surgona", to which she says that it sounds faintly familiar... Agovon says that a Pilgrimage is sort of rite many are encouraged to take, and wonders how encouraged it is in the Holy State. Labal says that Pilgrimage is still encouraged, though Herkushol moreso needs able-bodied people to seek out necessary resources. A scant few Saints don't see value in it, but Pilgrimage has helped shaped the modern climate to the point of establishing a lot of the major settlements around the world. Hence, Pilgrimage is still highly regarded, after all the path to Happiness is still out there. 

They traverse the cavern more and more, before eventually approaching an opening deep in the caverns. And even from here, there's a gentle, green glow deeper in. Seeing it, Labal declares that that must be an untapped Restoration gem, and a pretty big one at that. Delilah says that that bison must've interacted with it, to which she replies that she wouldn't be surprised if there's a bunch of ferals crowding around that thing. She suggests that they all make sure they're prepared before they get in there. And so, the player's prompted to prepare themselves before they bypass the threshold. 

The group makes their way into the threshold, and inside the portion of the cave, they see a boulder-sized collection of crystals, shining a dark green. Looking on them, Delilah confirms that those are Restoration crystals. The group steps near, and the goat remarks that he feels his body improving within its presence. Labal points out that people can channel their magic into these things in order to use the magic, though more refined hands can focus on points for healing. Delilah is contemplating on how they're gonna haul this chunk of rock home, to which the goat says they'll have to break it down. Thus, he takes up the naginata, and starts to swing on it. 

However, upon striking the gem, it starts to shake. The party pulls away in shock, and the sand around the ore begins to part. With a few more quakes, crab-like legs extend from the sand, and pulls the bunch of rock up and out of the sand. With that, the party finds themselves in the presence of a giant crab, utilizing the boulder of stone like some sort of shell to hide within. It lashes at the group with claws, forcing them to pull away. Agovon seems shaken, though Delilah and Labal draw their weapons. Labal says that this is what they're after, and they need to beat this thing fast. Delilah affirms as much: all they need to do is kill some dumb crustacean. Demiurge nods and tells the group to get ready; they can't just come out of here empty handed! 

With that, the party draws their weapons, and battle the '''Karkinos'''. The boss proves to be somewhat tricky. The crab itself is rather slow, though it has hefty physical blows and access to Water and Earth magic. By far its more annoying attribute is its defenses. It is exceptionally tanky, taking limited damage from even tougher skills, proving Poison to be quite useful. The crab will summon up other, smaller ferals to make the fight trickier, and arguably the worst fact about it is its access to Healing magic. The first time it uses it, players are prompted to target the rock on the back of the crab (the latter of which can't be healed). After dealing enough damage to it, Karkinos itself loses its defenses, and thus becomes much easier to damage. With enough work, the party is able to fell the crustacean.

With Karkinos down, the party is left panting, looking over the battlefield. Delilah says that that took more effort than expected, but at the very least they got the gems they needed. Agovon says that hopefully Bosola will find good use for these, and for a brief moment, Demiurge catches a glimpse of interest on Labal. However, he doesn't feel like acknowledging it, and she doesn't follow up on that strange moment. Either way, the group thus begins gathering the gems, and head back.
----
Now, the player has some free time before the deadline. They're free to hang out with the party members, gather gear in Erronus, grind up, and so on. Eventually, the day comes, and the party gets a message from Bosola, saying that he'd like to see them tomorrow.

;Septmi 11th

The next day comes, and Delilah thinks to tell Labal to make sure all of their supplies are in order before they move out, the rest of the party has their own thing to do. The viper nods and gets to work, and thus the rest of the group makes their way out. They head over to Bosola's, and once inside, they meet up with the horse that'd enticed them to this opportunity to begin with. And once there, he greets the group, and reports that he's witnessed some extraordinary changes in the subject once he set forth his treatment. 

He'd noted to begin with that fox had low energy, that he tended to keep within his own quarters at the majority of times. However, with the use of a journal, he's now seen that the individual has been out and about! It hasn't been an instantaneous change, but the subject still shows progress! Delilah says that that's great news! Bosola says that with the progress currently witnessed, he needs to make more of this stuff, he needs to help out others suffering similar conditions. But first, he needs more Restorative crystals. Agovon remarks that it's a good thing they thought ahead, and thus brandish what they've gained. The horse looks over them excited. He says that they've all done a great deed today, and that he'll do anything to repay them. Demiurge says he'll have to think on that, Agovon says that he'd just like some money, and Delilah says that she wants something... personal. 

She says she knows someone that's been suffering symptoms that're similar. She says that she'd like them to be treated, to which the horse says that once he develops more, he's sure he can book her in. But first she'll have to get out over here, he's not sure how long it'll take for this treatment to be more widespread. The roller understands, and says she'll try and arrange something. In fact, she says that she's going to write to her right away. With that, the party makes their way out while Bosola collects the many crystals. Delilah and Agovon are giddy with excitement and racing along while Demiurge walks along, feeling a sense of pride. He's shaken out of his stupor when he hears someone nearby clear their throat. He turns, and sees Labal, very close to the door they just walked out of.

She says that Saints need to be rather wise about their surroundings, and it doesn't take a genius to tell that they've been trying to keep her in the dark. She tells Demiurge that that in there... that is an amazing discovery. The Dragon asks what she plans, to which she continues that that sounds a lot like a path to Happiness. This guy sounds to've found a way to create a state of Happiness in someone. Maybe with some more research, it can be even better than he described. The Dragon tells her that that sounds very far from the intended use, to which the viper says that they can't be bound by what things "should be". Were they, they'd still be lame mortals with stone tools. 

Demiurge says that he's not sure, this sounds like something intended to help people who only really need it. Labal says that the world may very well need this, but she understands she isn't to be too tough on the divine's will. She'll try and talk to him later, once they're at Herkushol. She'll not bring it up at any point with the rest of the group, and he's free to think on his stance, and on whether or not the world must be deprived of such a medicine. She pats him on the back and says that the bags are packed back at the inn. She then slithers past, and the Dragon is left in place, thinking on what was just offered.
===Penultimate===
The group meets back at the inn, and once there, the Labal announces that their gear is together, and that they're ready to go asap. However, Delilah speaks up and says that they might've been too quick in their judgement. She thinks that they'll have to linger here for a little bit, just so she can gather the necessary equipment. Labal supposes that that should be fine, so long as they're careful with their packed equipment. She says she feels like preparing a meal for the team, and Agovon says that sounds nice, saying that he can help. 

With that, those two head out, though Delilah stays with Demiurge. She says that she wants to make sure Miranda at the very least makes it to town first. Demiurge asks if she'll even come out this way, to which she says she doesn't know, but that she'll make sure she's here one way or another. She says after tonight she's going to head out and bring her back, and she tells Demiurge to keep that Saint placated. She's going to relay the message to the goat too. Demiurge says that makes sense, though says he wants to try something tonight. The roller shrugs and asks that he not be long. With that, she leaves the Dragon, who contemplates on the stuff the viper said previously, before making his way out.
----
Back at Bosola's office, he's starting to pack up. However, he hears a knock at his door, and investigates. On the other side, he sees Demiurge, and is surprised to see him. Demiurge says that he didn't expect this either, but right now, a concern's cropped up, and he wants to see whether or not his worry is founded. The horse is happy to deal with whatever complications he has, and Demiurge says he wants to know what happens if someone ''not'' suffering the affliction is to receive this treatment. The horse raises a brow, and strokes his chin.

He says that such a thing should be avoided, at least as far as his hypotheses propose. Among symptoms include addiction, and he can't help but fear something like that with a chemical like this would be exceptionally harmful. However, Demiurge proposes something: he be a test subject. Bosola is taken aback, and asks him if he's certain. The Dragon assures him that he's divinity, he'll be ok. Bosola still seems uncertain, but sees that he's serious about this concern. He says that he can certainly try. And thus, Demiurge is led to a chair in the back, where an iv bag can be seen next to it, said bag glowing a faint green.

Bosola takes the needle at the end and observes Demiurge's wrist, feeling for a good pulse. He warns that this'll pinch, though Demiurge assures that he's had worse than a pinch. Bosola supposes if he feels that way... and thus, the needle is inserted, and the chemical flows through the tube and into his bloodstream. And seeing that, the Dragon takes some deep breaths, and begins to close his eyes...

...

For a brief moment, Demiurge can hear applauding. He stumbles in response, and begins to open his eyes. He finds himself standing at the Draconic Gardens. He's at that all too familiar ledge, the one he looked over centuries ago before descending on the world. Only now, there stood the many Dragons in the Gardens, clapping and cheering. And looking out over the crowd, he can see some of them holding up signs, several of which says "Best World Ever!" He's positively stunned at the sight before him, though gets shaken out of the trance by a gentle hand on his shoulder. 

He looked over, and could see Sophia herself standing over, looking down at him with the sort of warmth he hadn't felt before. Sophia tells her that he's done amazing, making a world in which everyone lives harmoniously. No one's ever done that before. Demiurge slowly asks if he really has, to which Sophia chuckles a little and assures him he has. She tells him about how proud she is of him, and the bronze Dragon tears up at that. However, just as suddenly as the vision came to him, he could see the very etchings of reality begin to fade away. He looks around and asks what's happening, though no one around responds to him. Sophia herself seems to be fading away, and the Dragon tries holding her to keep her close...

...

He grunts and rouses about, blinking wildly as he registers where he is. He's on the chair, in that doctor office, and he sees Bosola holding the iv, it now detached from him. The horse says that he went into a deep trance, and asks if everything went alright. Demiurge says he had this dream, this beautiful dream. The horse strokes his chin at that, and remarks that he hadn't expected a deep dream. Perhaps that's the body trying to give their brain the means to perceive the influx of happiness poured into them? He says that he needs to conduct more experiments.

Demiurge says that he needs to be somewhere, but there should be time for furthering the process later. Bosola tells him that he needs to keep everything he saw in that dream in mind for later. He'll want to probe that for later and ascertain whatever he could gather from it. Demiurge sweaers he will, and thus stumbles out of the chair. He runs out the door, Bosola looking on in slight concern.
----
The team can be seen at a diner, seated at one of the outside tables and enjoying some food. Demiurge approaches and finds them, Agovon asking him where he's been. The Dragon says that he got a little bit sidetracked, though Delilah points out that they're already on dessert. The Dragon is sheepish and takes a seat. And sitting their, Agovon notes that he's sort of just realized that they have a tendency to get to sit down and get a better feel for each other. First it was him and Demiurge, then the two of them and Delilah. And he supposes now's a good time to get to know Labal.

The viper says that she is a Saint, one of those tasked with helping to achieve the goal this world has sought out for so long. Delilah says that that much is obvious, but Agovon was more asking about her herself. Likes, dislikes, what led her to becoming a Saint, so on and so forth. She says that the passage to Sainthood is long and arduous. Former Saints had to first prove their prowess to the people to establish themselves as leaders of the world, and then they'd find people they think worthy of Sainthood, and make sure they can demonstrate the abilities that they'd demonstrated once before. She herself had to go through trials to make sure she's fit to rule. 

Delilah asks if her parents had sorta pushed her into it, to which Labal says it matters not. She's going to be one of the minds that helps steer the world in the right direction. Why wouldn't she like that? Demiurge asks her if that isn't stressful from time to time, to which she says that it does tend to weigh heavy. But she thinks of the future she could secure, and that helps her out. Demiurge thinks on those words and leans back, when some desserts are brought to the tabel. The party is thusly prompted to eat up before turning in for the night. 

;Septmi 12th

The next morning comes, and Demiurge bumps into Agovon. The goat says that Delilah made her way out to try and get Miranda. Demiurge asks if they should go and protect her, but he says that she seemed pretty tough, he thinks she'll be alright. Anyways, he said that she said she should be here tomorrow morning at the latest. So for now, they're going to keep Labal busy. Demiurge says that he can certainly try, and Agovon says that maybe they can talk her into getting a souvenir. That should keep her away from Sobola. Hearing his name, the Dragon feels a slight shiver, though despite this odd sensation he says that that sounds like a good idea.

With that, the goat prompts Demiurge to come along, though the Dragon says that he actually has some business right now. The goat seems weirded out by that, but says that he'll try his best to keep Labal busy. With that, the two split, Demiurge making his way to the office.
----
Bosola's seen dusting his shelves. He's interrupted by a knock at the door, where he checks it out. He sees the Dragon and greets him. He asks him if he's here to report the stuff he'd witnessed after being given the chemical. Demiurge says that he owes him that much, and he'd like to help out. And so, the horse asks him about what he's seen, to which the Dragon says that it was one of the nicest things he could've imagined. He saw everyone loving him and his caretaker talking about how proud she is... Bosola takes notes, and asks if those are the sorts of things he wanted deeply. Demiurge takes pause, and says he supposes he had wanted that stuff to happen. 

Bosola jots down the notes and strokes his chin. Demiurge asks if that helped, and Bosola says that a single test isn't exactly conclusive. Demiurge says that he can try again, but the horse says that that is not recommended. One proposed symptom is addiction, and he can't really trust himself if he were to inflict such a thing on the Dragon. He says that he's going to try and find someone else willing, and the Dragon looks as if he's going to insist, but he catches himself. He supposes he understands. Bosola thanks him for everything he's done, and Demiurge says it was no trouble. Bosola says that a lot of people should be helped out thanks to this research. With that, the Dragon makes his way out, though is reluctant as he leaves.
----
Demiurge spends time searching Erronus's streets for Agovon. However, his looking is proving more and more fruitless, especially as the sun is setting. He keeps looking until he gets near the shore. And there, he can see the goat and viper hanging out on the sandy bank. The Dragon comes close and sees them hanging out. Demiurge asks how their day is, to which Labal says that they checked out a lot of the sights. She admits she hasn't had the time to check out the shore-side town, and looking on it now, she regrets not seeing it. Agovon says that he's just happy they had the chance to see this during summer. 

He says that Surgona enforces the idea that looking over the natural landscape helps one expand their mind. Labal admits that such a teaching doesn't get to be enforced among the Saints as much as before. She was lucky to even come this far. As the group relaxes, Delilah approaches the shore, and a certain weasel is with her. The group turns and sees them, greeting them. The two ladies approach and sit, Delilah making sure to be close to her. The two of them look towards the sunset, and even the more reclusive Miranda has a small smile. The party is thus left on the shore, enjoying the sight of the sun setting.

...

Eventually, the team is back on the streets, the moon hanging over. Delilah tells the group that she's rented a room for Miranda, and she's going to be hanging with her for the night. She then asks the weasel for her to promise that she'll keep seeing Bosola. Miranda says that she'll try. He did seem kinda nice when they were in earlier today. The roller is glad, and assures that he'll help. Labal says that tomorrow's probably time to head out to the Holy State, to which Delilah affirms that. Agovon apologizes for the hold up, and the viper assures it's alright.

Thus, the group goes to sleep.

;Septmi 13th

The next morning comes, and the various party members has gathered their things. Demiurge, Agovon, and Labal are waiting over by the gate towards the north, when Delilah appears. She says that she was just making sure Miranda was going to be ok one more time, and the rest of the party seems ok with that. Labal says that they're to follow the trail north. They won't be able to miss the Holy State. And thus, the party makes their way along the '''Erronus-Herkushol Trail'''. 

The trail itself features ferals and bandits, though the latter is not in nearly as high a volume as on the other trail. The trail takes them northwards and eastwards. They're led towards the central mass of the mainland, the northern shore relatively close to it. And the city itself can be seen from far away with its grandness. The city stands with large stone walls and a mighty, church-shaped structure in the middle of it. It looks as if the city is divided into layers with passages leading from the various layers to the church within. The party, sans Labal, looks on in awe, and the viper says that that there is '''Herkushol, the Holy State'''. 

Labal says that there'll be housing throughout the city, and says that Delilah and Agovon will be fine there. Demiurge, meanwhile... he'll be expected to commune with the Saints. Agovon ponders how there'll be more housing, it looks like the entire city was built to shield that big church. Labal assures that there is some for them. For now, though, they need to complete their journey. Thus, the group continues along the trail, and makes it through one of the gates.
----
The group makes their way into the city of Herkushol. And stepping in, the group looks up in awe. There's several floors built into the inside of the walls, these floors looking to have various buildings on them. Said layers have passages extending from them and into the giant church in the middle of the Holy State. The current floor also brandishes buildings, though they can also spy several people in rags around the bottommost layer. Agovon asks what's with this structure, to which Labal says that as the Holy State, the Saints of old thought to build the biggest monument to the divinity they could.

Anyways, she tells Delilah and Agovon to look for an inn. The divinity must grace the Holy State's church. Delilah asks the bronze Dragon if he'll be ok, to which Demiurge says he thinks he'll be fine. So, the duo heads out into the layer, and the other duo begins heading into the church. The front doors features the emblem of the Dragon, seen cradling the world between his wings. The Dragon and the viper go through it, and begin walking through the halls. Eventually they get to a part of the halls where, just looking up, they can see the roads connecting to the city walls leading into the church's interior, where branches from them lead down directly into the church's halls. Demiurge remarks that that all must've been complicated to make, to which Labal says that anything is worth it for the divinity. 

They walk and walk, going up several flights of stairs, and it soon comes to the point where Demiurge swears they've been walking the length of a city. Labal says that they've arrived, a door with a more detailed depiction of the Dragon painted into it. Labal opens it, and they step in, revealing a room with a well crafted round table in the center of it. Positioned in the center of the table is those Draconic Wings Onah fought so hard for. Labal tells Demiurge to take a seat, she'll gather the rest of the Saints. Demiurge, albeit a little uncertain, approaches the table and takes a seat. The viper slithers out, and thus Demiurge is left waiting.

He looks over those wings, unsettled. He cautiously reaches towards them and feels them, affirming that these things are in fact in front of him. He hears the doors open up and he pulls away. He turns, and sees six people come in. There's Labal from before. There's also a raven man, a toad woman, a cat man, a lemur woman, and a wolf man. And each of them, sans Labal, are in awe of the Dragon's appearance here. They each bow, though Demiurge assures them this isn't necessary. Labal says that she found him a short while ago, helped him with some errands, and now they he's here to grace them. The raven comes close, saying that this is a momentous occasion. 

The toad says he's already met Labal, the Saint of Communication she's certain. Demiurge affirms as much, and the toad woman introduces herself as '''Oleca''', the Saint of Distribution. The raven introduces himself as '''Resti''', the Saint of Worship. The cat introduces himself as '''Worro''', Saint of Craft. The lemur introduces herself as '''Conna''', Saint of Gathering. And the wolf introduces himself as '''Locke''', Saint of the Military. Resti says that they've been working together to try and develop their Holy State to properly give the Dragon worship, and to bring the world closer and closer to the goal proposed centuries ago. Oleca says that that is on top of their work towards shepherding the world at large.

Demiurge says that he's glad to see some people taking care of this world. He asks how they feel the search for the path to Happiness is, to which Resti admits that it feels as if they haven't made progress. Labal, however, says that they actually may have. The Saints turn towards her, and Demiurge's eyes widen as he realizes what she might be talking about. She says that the Dragon himself actually discovered it. Someone in the medicine capital created a medicine capable of producing Happiness in a person. Demiurge is flustered that she comes right out with that, and Conna asks if that's true. Demiurge tries to say that it's not, but his stuttering tell a different story. Locke, however, says that they should contemplate on ''why'' Demiurge originally tried to hide this. 

Demiurge thinks on this, and tries to say that it's untested. Labal, however, says that she heard the doctor explain that the medicine was tested on someone. Demiurge admits it was, but not on those without an affliction. Oleca says that they should be able to provide people to alleviate that. Demiurge then seems even more uncomfortable. He knows that it has an effect. He himself had felt that effect, and he's sure once they get those guys there, they too will find that effect. Demiurge seems to struggle to talk about this, and even has a brief thought about whether or not he even should deny them.

Resti, however, notices that he seems to be in distress. He asks him if he'd wish to relax before discussing the matter further. Demiurge says that'd be nice, and that they spent a lot of time walking anyways. The lemur says that they'll be more than happy to provide a bed for him. The Dragon says that'd be fine, and thus the Saints agree that the current meeting must be dismissed. And so, the Dragon is led through the various halls again, this time up towards one of the upper floors of the church. And up there, he's let into one of the rooms, which boasts a nice, cushiony bed and various Dragon imagery. Labal wishes him a good rest, and softly closes the door. Demiurge, however, is not entirely at ease, even given the room, and tries to lay on the bed and rest, hoping that this is some sort of bad dream.

;Septmi 14th

Demiurge wakes up again. He finds he's in the room he saw last night, and affirms that he is indeed where he believes he is. He groans and gets up on his feet before making his way out. And once out, he bumps into a couple of guards wearing a combination of robes and armor. They say that Locke offered to guide the Dragon. Demiurge says that right now he'd like to meet up with his friends. He wants to get out of the church right now, and the guards say that they can do that, and offer to lead him back in whenever he's ready. And so, the guards lead him out.

Demiurge's led to the ground level, where he makes it back to the street. He looks for the nearest inn, where he finds that they've been completely booked as of last night, meaning that his friends couldn't have stopped in here. Demiurge finds himself needing to look around the street, which proves tougher than he imagined. The walls stretch fairly high and have many buildings around the various layers and streets, and even though he ascertains some of the inn locations, he finds that they too are booked. So, he finds himself subsequently needing to ask around to see if anyone saw a goat in a tunic and a lilac-breasted roller in casual wear. And along the way, he finds himself learning about the people outside the church.
*He asks some of the homeless people on the bottommost floor if they saw his friends, and they answer last night they saw those two go to the inn before leaving and heading for the stairs up. Demiurge wonders why they left, to which the homeless say that the inns are usually always packed. The Holy State either didn't expect there to be so many people in the walls, or it just doesn't care about the little people. A lot of the inns are managed solely by the owners, and a lot of the owners end up answering to more money, and if someone can offer more than someone pays in rent, their time in the inns are usually numbered. Demiurge remarks that that's terrible, and the homeless affirm as much.
*He's up on the second layer and he asks some of the homeless near the stairs if they saw his friend. They said that they went to the inn near the path into the church, but then they started to go around the ring. Demiurge wonders how many inns there are, to which they answer not enough. Demiurge asks about what housing looks like in general here, to which they answer that people either need to start a business and live in their buildings, or be lucky enough to get one of those inns. Demiurge remarks that the church is almost as big as a city and that there should be more than enough room for people in there, to which they say that housing in there is restricted to either the Saints' sycophants or the Saints themselves. They apparently can't leave themselves open else "sully the aesthetic built for the sake of the divine".
*On another portion of the second layer, after asking the various inns, he asks some of the shop owners nearby if they saw his friends, and they affirm that they saw them make their way up before they began to close. Demiurge asks what the shops are like around here, to which they say that there's equal parts luck and equal parts quality. The Saints require taxes for the sake of their own work, meaning they have to keep their numbers up. Same goes for the inns. They say that they've seen shops rise and fall and more people add to the numbers that're either forced to lay in the streets or go out into the dangerous roads.

Demiurge makes his way up to the third floor, where even up here he can see some of the Church Guards working on a fourth layer. And after enough looking, he can see, resting over in an alley with some homeless, Agovon and Delilah. He comes over and asks them if they're alright, to which Delilah says that that was a miserable night, but they can walk it off. Agovon says that he supposes he cannot appreciate true Happiness without seeing the depths of despair. Demiurge says that this city seems terribly designed for the amount of people it seems to hold, to which a nearby jaguar affirms as much. Demiurge turns and sees a tall jaguar man wearing filthy-looking clothes.

Demiurge greets him and asks who he is, to which Agovon says this man offered them sleep here. The jaguar affirms as much. He calls himself '''Oogarra''', and Demiurge introduces himself as well. Oogarra says he figured as much, seeing the Dragon before him and all. He says he was actually hoping to see him. Surely he's seen the way people around here live, to which Demiurge affirms as much. The jaguar says that those Saints claim to be running the world, but the fact of the matter is they care so much for the path to Happiness, they're willing to overlook the problems right outside their doorstep. Oogarra says Demiurge needs to get them to care.

Demiurge says that he absolutely cannot let this continue. Those Saints intend to speak with him soon, and he intends to give them an earful about how living down here should be. Oogarra thanks him, and prays that his encounter with them is fruitful. Agovon and Delilah wonder if he'll be able to bring them in, to which he says he can try. The jaguar wishes them luck in convincing those Saints, though deep down he fears that that won't be enough.
----
The group makes their way back in the church. The guards that'd led Demiurge before lead him back in. And eventually, he's brought before Locke, the wolf greeting the Dragon, remarking he hadn't expected to see him with usual people. The Dragon says that these two have helped him up to now. Locke says that the other Saints are currently doing their duties, but says he's ready to communicate with the divine. Demiurge says that he's looked out over the city, and found it teaming with people begging for a home. Locke says that he knows of them, but says they're acceptable losses. The trio blanches, Demiurge asking him what he means by that, to which he says many lives have gone away in the pursuit of Happiness, and many more will. Unless the Dragon is certain about the secret he and Labal found. 

Hearing that, the Dragon takes pause, and says that those people can't be Happy if they're to remain in these dire situations. Locke says that a lot of people aren't Happy, that's why they're continuing to search for Happiness. He then says that the Dragon will be able to end that. It's just a matter of using the secret they'd learned. Demiurge says that he won't tell them about it unless they start working on the housing situation, but he says that they'll keep searching. Labal herself should know, and at that, Demiurge realizes he's up the creek without a paddle. Delilah, however, decides to chime in and say that while people are without houses, they get violent. All of their sitting on their butts is just making things harder outside of these holy walls! Agovon affirms as much, saying they've had to take care of bandits on their path to pilgrimage!

Locke says that they're at work trying to wipe out threatening foes in this world, and says that he cannot expect commonfolk to understand the works of the Saints. Demiurge seems tempted to speak up about the secret, though the roller says that they should leave right now. Thus the group's led out, on the street again. Demiurge asks why she didn't let him speak, to which she says they can't let this jerk just walk over them. They clearly don't care about the people beneath them, and they need to learn that they can't do that! Agovon, however, says that they don't seem like the type to just buckle. It sounds like they'll only be able to help these guys if they give in to their demands. Demiurge knows that, but says that he needs to find some way to fix this...

As he contemplates, the jaguar from before finds them and approaches. He asks them how negotiation went, to which Delilah says that it was terrible. That Locke guy isn't willing to budge on anything that ''might'' impede the path to Happiness. Agovon says that they promise Happiness to those in the city once they ascertain that path, and says that it's close. Oogarra, however, declares that he can't just wait on them to ascertain this goal. The Saints have twiddled their thumbs for decades and nothing is better! Delilah says that she knows, and that they need to find some way to fix this if the Saints aren't willing to! Oogarra says that he knows, and declares that they are going to. And if the Dragon backs them, then surely they'll stand some chance of smiting them. Demiurge asks what he means, to which he says that he'll explain later. For now, now that the Saints have made their position clear, he needs to prepare a few things. 

Thus, the jaguar walks away, the party left staring. Demiurge wonders what he's talking about, to which Delilah remarks that she doesn't know, and she doesn't trust it. But for now, it sounds like they're not going to do anything without the Dragon's permission. So, she thinks their best bet is to wait around for Oogarra to contact them again.

;Septmi 14th - Septmi 16th

Players now have free time to relax. During the 15th, Labal will appear again, Demiurge checking on her. The viper asks Demiurge how the church has treated him, to which he says that the city is doing a terrible job treating its people. Labal says it looks bad, but it is a temporary suffering on the path to Happiness. Demiurge, however, asks how much she's looked at the people who've suffered. With that, the Saint is now given an excuse to hang out in the streets with Demiurge, and she does get a good look at the plight of the impoverished.

Eventually, the night of Septmi 16th ends, and in an alley on the third layer of Herkushol, the jaguar can be seen laying, holding a young jaguar girl. He holds the sleeping girl, swearing that things are going to be better than this.

;Septmi 17th

On this day, Demiurge and crew wake up again. And having woken up, a sparrow woman has found them and offers them a letter. It's revealed to be from Oogarra, giving the crew directions to the third layer towards a particular alley. Labal supposes that considering the circumstances, she should keep her distance, though she hopes that they can put in a good word for her. Demiurge says they can certainly try, and begins making their way.

They eventually make it up to the meeting point in question, and they find a conglomeration of homeless around said alley. They approach curious, and find towards the very end the jaguar himself, back turned towards them, and a scythe in either hand. Demiurge asks what's happening, to which Oogarra says that the church is denying the word of the divinity himself. That is proof enough that they are right to act. He says that the weather will turn colder and colder, and many are going to be lost to the elements. He says that either they force the change, or they die. He asks Demiurge and crew to stand beside him and spread word that they the people need to carve their own path forwards. 

Demiurge asks if they should really do this, to which the jaguar says they have no choice. Year after year those on the streets have died, and unless they've been murdered, the sycophants are content with just cleaning them off of the road. They have to do rise above the Saints, and Delilah says that this guy knows what's up. She says that they should spread this word, though Agovon questions whether or not they can even hope to stand up to these guys' guards. Oogarra says that they're people just like everyone else; once there's too many set upon them, they'll fall too. He says that this group is going to paint their message at a strategic point so that they can get people to their side. He says that they need to keep them safe.

With that, the group of homeless suddenly start moving, and the party find themselves needing to move with them. Some time passes, and several of the aligned with the cause are painting messages on some of the walls in the alleys. "The Saints are scammers", "The path to Happiness will kill us", "The church rejects the divine", so on and so forth. Meanwhile, the party is looking carefully upon them as they paint. Agovon asks if people will really start to fight once they read these, to which Oogarra says this will implant the flame of rebellion in the people. He also says that he'll have allies gather and provide weapons once they have the material. This city will learn the fury of a people tired of apathy.

As they speak however, a pair of guards approaches, and finds the lot of them painting. They shout at them to stop, immediately drawing spears. Seeing this, Oogarra flashes his scythes and tells the party that this is exactly what they're needed for. The party's thus forced into battle with the two '''Herkushol Guards''', and in the process learn about Oogarra's fighting style. He's primarily a physical fighter, and wields the High Counter passive, meaning he has a chance to strike back at foes if they try to physically attack him. He also has the unique Skill, '''Flagellate''', where he selects an ally and subsequently intercepts attacks directed at them. This, in tandem with his High Counter, can lead to some interesting combos. The party proves able to defeat the two guards. 

With them down, the homeless finish painting, and Oogarra prompts them to head out. He says that they'll keep on spreading the word and that they'll prepare their weaponry. With the homeless spreading out, the jaguar thanks them for their aid. He swears that things are going to change, and the Dragon will be to thank for that. Faster than the Dragon can respond, Oogarra is rushing after the group. Agovon says that this isn't what he expected when he set out on his expedition, and Delilah admits that it felt kinda nice giving those guards a little shiner. They'll just walk over these guys while they're left in the streets, but speak up when they apply a different coat of paint somewhere.

Demiurge says that dealing with a couple of guards is one thing, but if the Saints themselves get involved, he's sure there's going to be pain. Labal herself has proved fairly powerful in comparison to those guards, and he can only imagine what the rest of them are like. The goat supposes that's true, and says that he'd hate for things to come to blows. Demiurge thinks back to the conversation with Locke, how there might be change if they speed along to their path to Happiness. He says he's going to try and talk to the Saints again, to which the roller asks if he's really ok with putting up with those stuffy holier-than-thous. Demiurge says he's sure.

With that, he makes his way to the church again.
----
The Dragon is back in, and he's led back to that meeting room, where he sees the six Saints from before. Resti greets him, and asks if he's here to make a decision. Demiurge asks if they're certain that this path will lead to no suffering for the homeless. The Saints affirm that, and Conna says that Labal filled them in on a few details. The lemur says that she's preparing men to gather the amount of crystals that will be necessary, but first they'll need his blessing. Demiurge mulls over this news, wondering if they could really go and ascertain their goal and give the homeless what they need without any blood being drawn. On the other hand, this could potentially make them weaker in the Holy State were he to side with Oogarra.

He says that he thinks they should start searching. Conna is grateful, and Locke says that the people will search. Resti is elated at Demiurge's assistance, and wishes him rest. The age of Happiness will be upon them soon. So, Demiurge heads off to rest, though still he can't help but be uncomfortable about this course of events. He has a feeling, deep in his gut, that he has to choose one or the other.

;Septmi 18th - Septmi 22nd

With this, players are given a choice. They have two choices, either assist Oogarra by helping him paint various locations around Herkushol, or assist the Saints and try and find mining veins in the nearby landscape. If players don't do anything until Septmi 22nd, the choice will default to the Saints as they uncover the appropriate vein themselves. Either way, players will be thrust into one of two branches this way , the choice will default to the Saints as they uncover the appropriate vein themselves. Either way, players will be thrust into one of two branches this way.
====Help Oogarra====
====Help the Saints/Do nothing====
In this route, if players choose to do stuff, Resti will come out to accompany the Dragon. The raven says that he's here to help the divine in his duty to the world. Delilah tries to tell him they don't need his help, but the raven simply says that he'd gladly give his life for the sake of the Dragon. Looking at his back, the group spies a claymore hanging from his back whose blade looks wider than his body. Either way, Resti has joined the party. 

The group is now tasked with going around the fields around Herkushol to look for a sizable vein. And in the process, players will get to learn about the raven in question. His Claymore deals Slashing damage, he wields insta-killing magic, and he wields buffing magic. With this combination of powers, he can prove to be a powerful foe against enemies. Either way, players will advance throughout the environment, checking out key locations. And after enough work, players will uncover one particular spot, and trigger a cutscene. 

Here, the group looks into a currently uncharted cave, and upon going a fairways in, Resti remarks that this seems to warrant further investigation. He tells Demiurge that he's done plenty already today, and tells him he's free to relax until the Saints reach out to him again. Demiurge seems uncertain, but is fine with returning back home.

;Septmi 23rd

The group wakes again, and by now, a pair of guards approaches Demiurge. The duo tell the Dragon that the Saints need him. Delilah and Agovon aren't allowed entry as he's let in. He's brought before the many Saints. He asks what they need him for, he's already given them his blessing. Conna says that they've encountered a gigantic amount of Restorative Crystals in that cave. However, this amount proves too tough for their normal weaponry. Worro suggests that they cannot possibly develop a weapon in a timely manner to break it down. As such, they seek the Dragon's aid to break up the cluster enough to transport it. 

Locke says that the path into the cave should be secure, and says that they just need him to go and help break them up. Demiurge supposes if it's to further the mission he can help out. Oleca says that once the material is brought to them, it'll be a while, but they will create the medicine that will bring Happiness. Resti says that he'll be more than happy to lend a blade just in case. Demiurge wearily thanks him, and thus they head out. Demiurge is led out with a bunch of knights, the rest of the party, and several knights. Meanwhile, looking down on them from on high is a certain jaguar, snarling as he clenches the shafts of his scythes.

;Septmi 23rd - Octuar 4th

With that, players must go to the cave they'd uncovered beforehand. They approach it and make their way down the cave. The cave leads into the planet, requiring them to go around ramps and utilize some platforms. Along the way, they'll bump into some feral bats and whatnot, such as bats and moles. They go on and on, before they get stopped when they notice a guard dead on the ground. Labal wonders how a guard ended up dead, they're powerful soldiers. Delilah comes close and looks over them, before noticing the wounds. She says that this looks like a sword wound. Agovon asks if anyone else would be looking for this crystal. Resti says that looking into it reveals no signs of anyone else being in here.

The group continues down the path, and along the way, they'll notice several of the guards have retreated. Resti tries asking them what's wrong, to which several of them say their superiors to retreat. There're rogue individuals striking them. Resti asks who's causing this, to which they reply they don't recognize them. Resti grimaces, noting that someone is sabotaging the Dragon's mission. He says that they need to be punished. Light and Dark magic sparkles among his fingers, though he dismisses them. Either way, they continue on.

They make it about 3/4 of the way down, and as they do, they're surprised when a bunch of people in rags jump down, surrounding them. Resti asks who they all are, but Delilah notices them. She calls Resti a "dumbass", saying that these are a bunch of homeless in ''his'' own city! Agovon asks them what they're doing, to which they say that their future needs to change. Oogarra says that the Saints need to die, and they're here to eliminate one of them. Demiurge tells them they don't want to do this, only for Resti to hold up a hand to quiet him. He smiles and steps forwards.

He says that he'd wondered who was threatening those loyal to the divine mission, and for a moment thought there was some sort of traitor among the Saints. But it turns out there were merely a bunch of no-name goons that'd tracked down their work so far. The many homeless are stunned by how brazen he is, one of them asking if he can really be so heartless. Resti says that he's the one with the most heart here, next to the Dragon. He says that he swore his soul to the divine mission, and says that he'd be better off dead were it not for the glorious divine. Same as the rest of them. They look only at their own lives as important when the precious Dragon had set forth the means of accomplishing their purpose. He says that if they seek to kill that mission, then they seek to destroy their very purpose! He thusly draws the claymore and swears to the Dragon he'll kill them all. Demiurge tries to tell him this isn't what he wants, but the rest of the homeless decide they're fed up being looked at like less than people!

With that, the team is forced into a fight with the '''Homeless Ambushers'''. The fight starts with them ambushing the party, meaning that they have the first turn. One of them relies on buffs, one of them relies on ailments, and one of them relies on damage. The party needs to take care of each of them, though have to be weary, for warriors of similar builds will replace someone that was felled shortly after. They keep on fighting, to the point that players will've beaten 12. And once that's done, the various homeless are beaten, the party panting. 

Seeing them down, the various fighters are left in a heap, panting heavily. Demiurge looks over them and sighs. He says that they should just keep moving, these guys don't pose a threat anymore. The raven looks over them. He asks them if they're willing to repent, if they will kiss the ground the Dragon walks on. One of them shouts they never will. He starts to stand, saying that the Dragon betrayed them. Another says that they don't deserve to suffer just so the Saints can work on their fruitless cause. More and more dissent is heard from the crowd, and the party focuses on Resti. The raven sighs, and says that they don't deserve another chance. He extends a hand, it cackling with Dark magic, before claws of darkness rake across the ground at the many felled people. The claws make it to each of them, before each reaching up. Talons of the darkness stab into the many people, and that section of cave is filled with screams as the former opponents are stabbed, into their very being, by the claws of damnation. The party, Labal included, is positively stunned by this display of utter cruelty.

Each homeless member is left dead on the ground, terror on their faces. The raven sighs and turns to the party, saying that the unworthy have been beaten. He says that they're almost upon their goal, and walks on. The party just watches as he continues, before each turning to each other. Agovon asks what have they done, and Labal says she's never seen this side of him. Delilah says that they can't just beat down someone like that. She takes a heavy swallow, before saying that they need to just play along, maybe see an opening in that jerk's defenses later. With that, the party continues.
----
The group makes their way deeper in. They're in the deepest chamber, and they can see the glow of green around the corner. They turn, and they uncover a positively shocking sight. Ahead of them stands, from floor to ceiling, a pillar of crystal as thick as a castle wall, stretching several stories tall. The party looks over it, Delilah wondering how they're supposed to take care of that. Agovon supposes there's something they can do, and glances towards Demiurge leadingly. The Dragon thinks, before settling on something. 

He says that the Dragons have access to great power, and that it could be dangerous. But he thinks that it'll be able to break these Restoration Crystals down enough. Resti says that it'd be splendid to see the divine power firsthand, Labal affirming that. Delilah says that that sounds like it could be dangerous whatever it is. She suggests that they settle on it only if they feel like they're ready for whatever fallout there could be. With that, players are given the chance to heal up and whatnot before they go up to the pillar itself. 

Demiurge stands there, and tells the group to stand back. They do so, and he braces his own legs. He dives deep into himself, tapping deep into the magical reservoir within himself. His abdomen starts to glow with a Pure light, a shinier speck traveling up his stomach and up to his throat. He clenches his teeth, aims at the pillar, and then he extends his jaws and shoots out a beam of Pure magic, a mighty roar filling the chamber and shaking the floor, moreso as the beam carves straight through the pillar! It's like a knife through warm butter, tons of crystals shot out and the beam carving up through the cave walls. The party is stunned by the sight, Resti's smile wide on his face. Demiurge twists and turns his head to change the angle of his assault, before eventually closing his mouth. With that, the pillar crumbles, the many chunks of Restorative Crystal now littering the chamber 

Agovon is surprised, remarking he'd never seen anything like that. Labal says that she'd heard tales of the Dragon's power, but to see it in action... Resti spreads his wings, praising the Dragon! He praises loudly and jovially. Delilah glances around and blinks a few times, as if she's trying to see whether or not she actually saw that. She then asks the uh... um... 

I forgor 💀 the rest.

[[Category:Shaggy is one we must all fear]]
[[Category:SHAGGY DAB SHAGGY DAB]]
[[Category:No one really understood the toll Shaggy had on my body. I spent 7 months in rehab after the first time he graced me with his presence.]]
[[Category:The doctors were surprised when they found out I was alive after finishing the first scene.]]
[[Category:This wasn't even CGI, Shaggy would randomly decide to pluck peoples' souls from their bodies - we were powerless to stop him, so we had fit it into the plot.]]
[[Category:Dozens lost their lives this way.]]
[[Category:Rumors say that 18% of Shaggy's power caused the Big Bang]]
[[Category:Shaggy would often come to the set and scream at me for not acting like a real god, I really learned a lot from him.]]
[[Category:These foolish mortals actually think I use 1% power]]
[[Category:One time Shaggy snapped his fingers and Michelle (Daphne) just disappeared.]]
[[Category:She came back like 30 seconds later, but she looked really scared and kept saying something about "the dark place."]]
[[Category:I don't want to talk about the dark place ever again.]]
[[Category:Can solo enything no matter what]]
[[Category:You...you were too strong......Shaggy]]
[[Category:Making the movie was a very hard process, actually.]]
[[Category:I could only use 0.1% of Shaggy's power at a time.]]
[[Category:There was one instance where I used 0.8% and the entire set turned to ash.]]
[[Category:Solos soloing]]
[[Category:Solos Solos Emperor]]
[[Category:Like, do you want to see 0.11% of my power, Scoob?]]
[[Category:Hello there, man!]]
[[Category:General Sha'a Gi. That's impossible. I killed you!]]
[[Category:Well like, you shouldn't have messed with a Force God, dude.]]
[[Category:Like, omae wa mou shindeiru, man]]
[[Category:I thought you would give me a REAL fight.]]
[[Category:If it weren't for me, you humans would have gone extinct a millenia ago.]]
[[Category:Every good idea you've ever had was actually implanted in your head by me]]
[[Category:Shaggy once told me I was one of the victims of Thanos' decimation and that he had to use 3.6% of his power to reverse everything.]]
[[Category:I owe my life to Shaggy]]
[[Category:Like, was that meant to be a punch man?]]
[[Category:Seems you've forgotten what that "S" stands for on your suit. Do you need me to remind you?]]
[[Category:No please I haven't, it stands for Shaggy, just don't hurt me anymore, I'll do anything, don't unleash your wrath against me!]]
[[Category:Heh...finally, a worthy opponent. You might make me use 30% of my power]]
[[Category:Actually, when I played Shaggy and his spirit took over my body, I became irresistible to women.]]
[[Category:By the end of production I had 63 kids.]]
[[Category:It is pretty amusing to see that these mere mortals think that the Big Bang is comparable to my true power.]]
[[Category:Next time you try to kill off my meme, I'll do more than just a little ol' virus]]
[[Category:I was forced to use almost 2.3% of my power to completely change the timeline and not get on Meme Review to live forever]]
[[Category:The real reason Shaggy is such a coward is because he is afraid of unleashing his true power and killing everyone.]]
[[Category:Like, impressive man. You're the first person to witness my Sage Mode.]]
[[Category:I've come to challenge you, Shaggy. GIVE ME THAT SANDWICH! NEVER!]]
[[Category:Fool. The blood of the Six Paths as well as his descendants, the Uchiha and Senju clans, flows through my veins like a thundering waterfall.]]
[[Category:I will admit, however...it's been many years since an opponent forced me to use 10% of my power in battle.]]
[[Category:At 7.7% of Shaggy's power, Shaggy can see John Cena in dark night]]
[[Category:Like, sorry Scoob, but "snacks" aren't something one considers when balancing the universe]]
[[Category:At 5% power Shaggy is able to change skin colors and officially gain an N word pass]]
[[Category:Heh, man, I thought you would make me use like more than 1% of my power on you...]]
[[Category:BUT HOW MORE WRONG COULD I HAVE BEEN, MORTAL.]]
[[Category:Like, Zoinks Galactus-man, this is only 2% of my power]]
[[Category:As the battle with Woody rages on, a beacon of hope emerges from the shadows to aid Deku in his struggle]]
[[Category:Legend has it that when Shaggy reaches 100% power the walls between universes will be destroyed and Anti-Shaggy will come forth for the final battle]]
[[Category:Congrats, dude. You found some of my old kidney stones.]]
[[Category:Like, zoinks Midoriya-dude. All-Might taught you well! You're pretty strong...]]
[[Category:It's making me want to go all out!]]
[[Category:Like, silly Freddy! Not even your Scooby-Snacks can stop me at 5% of my full power!]]
[[Category:We actually couldn't film with Shaggy for more than 5 seconds at a time or our bodies would be ripped to shreds even though he was only at 1%  power]]
[[Category:The movie was a lot of work. We spent hours translating the ancient stone tablets to learn the protective spells that allowed us to stand in Shaggy's presence.]]
[[Category:Even with the spells it was hard not to burst into tears.]]
[[Category:Shaggy's powers at 3% are simply just parlor tricks compared to what he did to Kaiba at 44%.]]
[[Category:By simply shouting "Zoinks" he ended up trapping Kaiba in an infinite loop where he has to relive getting obliterated by Exodia over and over again like it was a GIF]]
[[Category:*laughs* Fred that was only me using 4.4% of my power not 44%]]
[[Category:I was actually the only person who worked on the film, I just used 3.2% of my power to be in every place at the same time. I'm even interviewing myself right now.]]
[[Category:Like, you underestimate my power, dude.]]
[[Category:You made me use 5% of my power!]]
[[Category:You made me use 10% of my power!]]
[[Category:At 3.6% of his power, Shaggy can rip through Flex Tape with two fingers]]
[[Category:By using just 0.06% of his power, Shaggy can break out of the friend zone.]]
[[Category:"This is like, not even a challenge man. Why can't you do it?"]]
[[Category:You want a lil piece of the Shagster?]]
[[Category:I was actually the only actor in the film. Everyone else was projected onto the world artificially by me as soon as I had 1% of Shaggy's power.]]
[[Category:You've had AirPods in this entire interview, how have you been hearing me properly?]]
[[Category:That's what 0.017% of my power does.]]
[[Category:What does it look like I do for a living? Destroy planets with 1% of your power]]
[[Category:Scooby actually was supposed to be a normal dog, to add some realism for the live action version.]]
[[Category:However Shaggy accidentally used 2% of his power, and the dog gained human intelligence and the ability to speak.]]
[[Category:One time when we were filming I dropped my glasses and when Shaggy gave them back to me some of his power was transferred to me and I was a god for about 12 seconds, I don't know how he does it]]
[[Category:Shooting scenes with Shaggy was quite difficult since we couldn't see him. Our mortal bodies simply couldn't perceive his being.]]
[[Category:I'll never forget the day I first laid my eyes upon Shaggy. My mind expanded just by being in his presence, I wept for weeks afterwards]]
[[Category:We all know Shaggy is a huge Mercedes fan, and I'll never forget the day when he told us he gave the team 0.006% of his powers to work on the engine in 2014.]]
[[Category:They have been dominating in the championship since.]]
[[Category:Any more power and with the immense speed it could've produced would've been able to kill any driver instantly.]]
[[Category:I have already unlocked 5% of Lord Shaggy's power. Soon I will become a conduit of His Power, leading to 100% destruction of Earth.]]
[[Category:He had this word that he'd say, "Zoinks". As soon as he said it the whole cast and crew would drop to their knees and worship him.]]
[[Category:We had no control over our bodies during this. We belonged to Shaggy.]]
[[Category:Will you ever use 100% of your power?]]
[[Category:Should the day come where I use even above 50% of my power, mankind will be extinct for eons.]]
[[Category:About 14 billion years ago Shaggy accidentally used 7.83% of his power and the whole universe vanished. Had to build that shit all over again.]]
[[Category:And then, just when they thought my meme was dying, I used a mere 2.35% of my power to make myself relevant again.]]
[[Category:Like, this is just a pinch of my full power. Not even, like, 3% of it, man!]]
[[Category:Yesterday one of the editors accidentally spoiled Avengers: Endgame for Shaggy. It took over 14 hours to clean the bits of flesh and brains off the walls]]
[[Category:When filming was complete, I was allowed to keep the Shaggy costume. I needed it in order to fulfill my destiny of unlocking his full power.]]
[[Category:I brought the costume with me to the heart of the Montana wilderness, where I remained in isolation for 42 days.]]
[[Category:It was on the morning of the final day that Shaggy's full power was unleashed.]]
[[Category:So I was like "Hey, man, you need some human souls? No problem." I harvested every single one of those things myself. And the studio, they were so grateful for my assistance.]]
[[Category:When Shaggy first shoved a 7-foot long sandwich in his mouth and didn't chew, I knew he was the god we needed.]]
[[Category:I wasn't even supposed to be in the movie. When filming started, the director realized that they had forgotten to cast anyone to play Velma.]]
[[Category:Shaggy, feeling so incredibly passionate about the project, used 4.35% of his immense power to literally will me into existence. He created me JUST to play Velma.]]
[[Category:I owe Lord Shaggy my very existence.]]
[[Category:I'm actually the second person to portray Velma in this movie. The first woman to try, she accidentally looked Shaggy in the eyes on the second day of shooting. Her flesh melted off, and her bones burned to ash.]]
[[Category:To prevent that from happening to me, they gave me these really strong glasses. I couldn't see anything, much less make eye contact with Shaggy. It made filming a little more difficult, but it was worth it to keep my corporeal form.]]
[[Category:We actually had to start using CGI every time someone touched Shaggy while filming. I'm only here because we lost the first Velma to Shaggy's power. After just touching him, her very soul was ripped from her.]]
[[Category:Her lifeless body then fell to the floor and disintegrated.]]
[[Category:After filming, I asked Shaggy how we were able to stand in his presence for so long without getting disintegrated. The Shaggy we see here is only a light projection he made of himself using .00001% of his power.]]
[[Category:Even with so little, the collateral damage he caused is unforgettable...]]
[[Category:I'm surprised I even survived filming. So many died due to the immense power of Shaggy...]]
[[Category:It was mostly extras and non-essential actors, though we had to reshoot half of the movie because the actor who had played Fred got into an argument with Shaggy and well, frankly I don't think I'll forget that day]]
[[Category:Shaggy fact number 57: Shaggy has only needed to use more than 20% of his power once before, when he killed God]]
[[Category:The reason that the Shaggy meme hasn't died yet is because he's too powerful to be forgotten]]
[[Category:Horror strikes as Shaggy passes his 1% limit, allowing him to say the N-Word therefore making him the most powerful being on Earth]]
[[Category:I remember when we were shooting the movie, Shaggy accidentally released .14% of his power and it made a sinkhole right in the middle of the set.]]
[[Category:We had to evacuate everyone within a twelve mile radius to be safe as well.]]
[[Category:The reason they added Scrappy to the movie was because I needed a sparring partner who would not evaporate at the sight of my true form]]
[[Category:Now you're stuck in here with me, the Cotton Candy Glob! I'm not stuck in here with you. You're stuck in here with me.]]
[[Category:Shaggy was kind of eccentric on-set. He would always brag about being "omnipotent."]]
[[Category:I never really believed him until the day he transported me back to the day of my birth and delivered my infant self from my mother in front of me.]]
[[Category:I wasn't allowed to use the restrooms on set because Earth's plumbing systems can't withstand the magnitude]]
[[Category:The reason I always seem so afraid of monsters on the show is that I know that if I so much as get close to the monsters, they would be wiped from having ever existed in the first place.]]
[[Category:I may be powerful, but I'm also merciful.]]
[[Category:Our Lord and Savior Shaggy kissed a baby. The baby is now known as Superman.]]
[[Category:During filming, Shaggy tripped over a light and I reached out to break his fall.]]
[[Category:Not knowing his immense power, I was immediately vaporized and sent 2000 years into the future.]]
[[Category:Holding all knowledge, Shaggy was able to bring me back to the present. I owe him my life.]]
[[Category:I remember when Pokemon Go came out...Shaggy caught all 802 from a landline phone.]]
[[Category:Scooby Snacks are power inhibitors to prevent Shaggy from destroying the Earth by simply breathing]]
[[Category:Whenever we get too comfortable around Shaggy he would break someone's bones with his mind and chant in tongues.]]
[[Category:I still hear the chanting. I'm terrified that one day I'll know what it means.]]
[[Category:There were several fight scenes that had to be cut from the original script after Shaggy ended up almost killing the Stunt Doubles in his Base Form.]]
[[Category:Actually, contrary to popular belief, we did use a real dog. Shaggy just passed 0.04% of his power onto the dog we hired, which morphed him into this form and granted him eternal life.]]
[[Category:In the scene where I kissed Shaggy it literally tore me out of the physical realm. But Shaggy used 15% of his power to bring me back.]]
[[Category:The ritual was actually meant to help me contain Shaggy's power, but we tried to work it into the plot.]]
[[Category:In this scene we actually didn't have to use any special effects. I just let out a bit of the energy given to me by playing Shaggy.]]
[[Category:I tried releasing just 1% of Shaggy's power in this scene, but I couldn't control it. The explosion was instantaneous.]]
[[Category:So, how do you have this much power at a low percentage? One does not simply explain the true way of my power.]]
[[Category:I have, like, chosen some people to pave the way for my coming.]]
[[Category:Those people understand my words and are able to, like, explain them to mortals.]]
[[Category:Embrace their teachings or face my wrath]]
[[Category:A new band of people are starting to say you're not God but a rehash of a Chuck Norris meme. The world is about to see 32.59% of my power]]
[[Category:Shaggy? I thought we agreed no questions about Shaggy. If we acknowledge him it makes what he did real.]]
[[Category:You know, he already knows we're talking about him.]]
[[Category:What I saw on set...the pure electrical power...the rage...I can't go through that again, I'm sorry this interview is over.]]
[[Category:Shooting the movie was difficult because even at 0.06% of my power, actors could not stand within 5 feet of me without being reduced to a pile of smoldering ash.]]
[[Category:We had to film in three second increments because the actors were too afraid after the first 5 Freds got too close and had to be replaced.]]
[[Category:One day Shaggy was listening to some music on his AirPods. We thought he couldn't hear us and tried to play a trick on him.]]
[[Category:I took one step towards him to approach slowly but he turned over immediately and looked deep into my eyes with full anger.]]
[[Category:After that I was blind for one month. If he had used more than 5% of his power I would have been dead.]]
[[Category:There wasn't any CGI in the movie at all. Shaggy was so powerful that he could alter reality, making it seem like we were in a different place.]]
[[Category:During the filming of the movie, Shaggy was so powerful that when crew members looked at him their physical forms were shredded to the molecular level, leaving only their astral forms intact]]
[[Category:There was a moment during filming, in which Shaggy stayed still.]]
[[Category:We looked at each other without knowing what was happening, all the alarms inside my head were activated, I feared for my life.]]
[[Category:After a few seconds, Shaggy sneezed. We lost many men]]
[[Category:I only used .05% of my power to remain as a meme in 2020]]
[[Category:Remember the dinos? That was an excuse to use 0.01% of my power]]
[[Category:So, when we were filming I was only allowed to use 0.01% of Shaggy's power.]]
[[Category:One time, I accidentally went 0.001% over the mark and everyone within a 5-mile vicinity shat their pants and passed out!]]
[[Category:Any other incidents? Yeah there was this one time when a producer went to shake my hand and I accidentally gave him skin cancer because all his cells couldn't take the energy from being near me]]
[[Category:Oh my]]
[[Category:But I did use .01% of my power to give him a new arm]]
[[Category:Yeah, whenever we were on set, I had to repress my power down to 0.01%. Otherwise, the others started to get nosebleeds. Sarah lost more blood than she would on her cycle.]]
[[Category:You know, before I blessed this set with my existence, WB wanted me for Batman.]]
[[Category:They immediately regretted this decision when I said yes and killed my own parents to prepare for the role. Cowards.]]
[[Category:I'm not lying when I say this, I saw Shaggy eat an entire 6 pack of Popeyes biscuits without any water.]]
[[Category:Scooby Snacks? Oh boy. If we didn't have Scooby Snacks to feed the almighty Shaggy, he would let out a mighty roar and knock us down. Even at 1%.]]
[[Category:So when was the last time you used 3% of your power? Well, thinking about it, it must've been when I decided to take a snip of my hair and turn it into the mortal you humans call Chuck Norris]]
[[Category:Being Shaggy has led me down a path of death and destruction. I've killed many people in the hope of replicating 1% of Shaggy's being.]]
[[Category:By the end of filming, I hope to become 100% Shaggy. I will become one with him]]
[[Category:I am able to cure all forms of diseases with my over 9000 power level!]]
[[Category:I don't know why they keep trying to display Shaggy's power in percentages. To think one could express his power in human numerals is just foolish.]]
[[Category:At one point while shooting, Shaggy had to give my character a high-five. He actually ended up blowing my organs out of my body, but he brought me back from the realm of the dead and apologized]]
[[Category:So how powerful are you really? Saying the N-word takes about 2% of my power]]
[[Category:What does 0.0001% of your power look like? You can't take 0.0001% of infinity, but if you want an answer then I would say the Big Bang.]]
[[Category:Shaggy prepares to use .3% of his power and absolutely obliterate Woody]]
[[Category:A lot of people don't know this but years ago Lord Shaggy found himself fed up with solving mysteries and wanted to venture into the world of acting.]]
[[Category:Using only 4% of his power, he manifested his thoughts into three highly successful entities known as Chuck Norris, Tom Hanks, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.]]
[[Category:Combined, his films have made an astonishing $345,000,000,000 at the domestic box office]]
[[Category:We actually never had stunt doubles. When we would do stunts, Shaggy would just slow time and reduce gravity with only 1.4% of his power]]
[[Category:One day, Shaggy got too cold while on set. He snapped his fingers, and global warming was created. The scientists think humans did it, but it was Shaggy]]
[[Category:I remember this one time when Shaggy came in and announced that he beat Five Nights at Freddy's 4 with the sound turned off.]]
[[Category:We didn't even know what he was talking about because Five Nights at Freddy's wasn't even a thing back then]]
[[Category:I was touched by Shaggy's power only once, when I had an arm wrestle with Matthew Lillard. I was in surgery for 3 days while they reconstructed the whole right side of my body]]
[[Category:I could destroy the universe by itching my nose but that isn't how someone with supreme power like mine should act.]]
[[Category:Using only 0.001% of his power Shaggy may enter this plane of existence through any image of his likeness]]
[[Category:I'm Shaggy so I must have infinite power]]
[[Category:While some people may not like the Shaggy memes, they require a lot of creativity and are very fun to read. And they will never die because Shaggy is immortal.]]
[[Category:Shaggy formally apologizes for using 4% of his power on Hiroshima and Nagasaki]]
[[Category:"Like Zoinks, I really wish they'd surrendered when they had the chance"]]
[[Category:During the body switching scene they had to get three homeless people off the street to perform so that the main cast would not be killed by the sheer awesomeness of Shaggy's spirit at 100% power.]]
[[Category:Have you ever used 100% of your power? Once when I created myself and caused the Big Bang. As the universe grows so does my power dude.]]
[[Category:Look guys! Someone dropped their hammer.]]
[[Category:Using only 0.00006% power, Shaggy Blanco obliterated Big Chungus within a fraction of a second]]
[[Category:Shaggy was only using maybe 3-5% of his power that day when he decimated Hiroshima and Nagasaki.]]
[[Category:With 9.6% of Shaggy's power, he can travel through realms.]]
[[Category:With a whopping 37.8% of his power, Shaggy creates the universe as we know it.]]
[[Category:With 0.005% of Shaggy's power he can enter other shows]]
[[Category:I'm using only 3% of my power]]
[[Category:14 years later and the spirit of Shaggy still lingers in my bloodstream, I do not think I can ever let go of the sheer power he gave me.]]
[[Category:This is Shaggy at 5% of his power. They say he can destroy the sun just by blowing on it]]
[[Category:All your base belongs to us]]
[[Category:NO U]]
[[Category:Remember in 2012 when the world was supposed to end?]]
[[Category:Well it did, and Shaggy had to use 7.5% of his power to go back in time and reverse it. The whole world owes him their lives.]]
[[Category:I once decided to take a leak inside of the gas tank of a truck as a prank.]]
[[Category:One minute later, the truck came to life, turned into a robot, and started calling itself 'Optimus Prime'.]]
[[Category:I wasn't even supposed to use 0.1% of my power, but when I hit 1% everybody almost died. This however gave the final scene like, cool vibes.]]
[[Category:Luckily, George was filming the whole thing.]]
[[Category:9/11? Shaggy just won two games of Jenga in a row.]]
[[Category:Hiroshima/Nagasaki? The best slamdunk Shaggy ever landed!]]
[[Category:Oh and *laughs* the Holocaust? Well, we had a rodent infestation on set...]]
[[Category:People keep asking me what would happen if I went beyond 10% of my power.]]
[[Category:So I tried during the filming, and now the area doesn't exist anymore. Ever heard of Atlantis?]]
[[Category:This, like, isn't even 1% of my power.]]
[[Category:Like, at 17% power I can control the whole universe]]
[[Category:I realized as soon as I wrote Shaggy into The Clone Wars that he was way too powerful to leave in the franchise, so I had to kill him off immediately.]]
[[Category:That was the hardest decision I ever made.]]
[[Category:Shaggy was my favorite creation he was just far too powerful for the Marvel Universe and could single handedly take Thanos out with his bare hands only using 0.5% of his power]]
[[Category:The last time I tested my 100% power was when I destroyed the universe and had to make a new one.]]
[[Category:Making a new one only took 20% of my power and that's what you humans call the Big Bang.]]
[[Category:I've probably quintupled my power since then]]
[[Category:Contrary to popular belief, 1% is not an accurate representation of my power.]]
[[Category:When I'm forced to release an amount of my power weak enough to not destroy the universe the amount I must use relative to 100 is so infinitely small]]
[[Category:That you mere mortals couldn't comprehend how little it is. It's easier for me to just round up to 1%]]
[[Category:RIP AND TEAR]]

[[Category:In his ravenous hatred, he found no peace.]]
[[Category:And with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him.]]
[[Category:He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... The Doom Slayer.]]
[[Category:Tempered by the fires of Hell, his iron will remained steadfast through the passage that preys upon the weak.]]

This page is simply being copied/used on this website as proof and showcase on what the longest page on this wiki should look like.

I challenge anyone (including myself) to create an even longer page but without cheating.

No Zalgo spam. No A.I. Just pure autistic writing from the soul without it being completely ass and actually entertaining for audiences/viewers.

I DARE YOU! Until then, this page shall be the (TRUE) longest page on this wiki.<br>
