Chapter 1.3

After defeating the Sword Knight, you search out the remaining Knight. They wield a large ax, and have the same dark armour as the fallen Sword Knight. You look to the group, ordering them into a new formation, sending Linasi down the West side, Nyrtale up North, and Monie in the middle of both. 

"You need me?" Linasi asks as you order her to flank.
"I'll take this chance." Nyrtale says to himself quietly as he is ordered to do the same.
"Okay everyone!" Monie says to herself excitedly as she clutches her dragonstone and begins the march to the enemy. 

Your heroes get within striking range, bringing the assault to the Ax Knight.

Linasi starts the attack by twirling her staff, pointing the glowing crystal at its head towards the knight. A small blast of white energy flies out, dissipating after hitting the target. Dealing 7 damage. After hitting the target she nods towards Nyrtale who leaps up high into the air, flipping forwards with his staff. A burst of red energy appears on his target, dealing 7 damage. Nyrtale lands, spinning the staff back onto his back. The knight winces more as he takes 10 more damage, allowing Monie to go forwards and attack. She rises into the air, pointing downwards, aiming Reality Surge. The blast of red, blue and green light flies down, hitting the Knight. His ax falls to the ground and the group walk towards each other, high-fiving as they meet. 

"Great job everyone!" Monie congradjulates. 
"We all did a good job there! Even you Nyrtale!" Linasi says excitedly.
"It was very impressive indeed." Nyrtale replies.

Chapter 1.4

After defeating the Ax Knight, you look up towards your next foes. One of them wields a long bow with a quiver hanging by his side, and the other has a long lance. They're quite far away, and don't seem to plan on moving towards you at all. You formulate the plan of using Monie to fight the lance wielder alone, while Nyrtale and Linasi take the other one.

"Very well." Nyrtale says to himself as he picks his staff back up.
"I'll do my best!" Linasi cheers as she runs behind Nyrtale.
"...For you Ai." Monie says to herself as she walks away from both you and the rest of the group.

After a very brief moment you reach the foes.

Monie grabs her dragonstone, twirling into the air. She nervously looks towards the bow-wielder, but she calms herself as she points towards her target of the Lance Fighter. The streak of red, blue, and green flows from her fingertips, dealing 24 damage. The Lance Fighter drops to the ground, her lance cracking as she falls. From above Monie looks down towards her allies. Linasi spins around, twirling the staff in her hand before stopping and firing a blast towards the Bow Fighter. This shot streaks through the air, crackling as it hits. This shot dealt 3 damage. The Bow Fighter recoils slightly, but picks up an arrow and fires it at Linasi. Through the air, this arrow flies and hits Linasi in her leg, she staggers a little as she takes 19 damage. After the Bow Fighter attacks, Nyrtale throws his staff into the air. He leaps up towards it, and swings it towards the Bow Fighter, the red sparks emerge around him, dealing 3 damage. After Nyrtale lands, his target takes another 10 damage. Once again however, the Bow Fighter isn't phased much by the weaker attacks from the staves. He twirls an arrow, notching it into place. He raises the bow, releasing the arrow. It hits Nyrtale dead on, dealing 14 damage. With the Bow Fighter's next arrow, he places it into the bow, spins directly around, and fires it towards the airborne Monie. The arrow cuts through the air, slicing through Monie's blazer. This arrow deals a critical 24 damage to Monie. 

"Another crash?" Monie says to herself. She begins falling to the ground, her hand reaching towards the sky. Her limp body lands, flopping as it hits the grass. The electrical crackles around her fade, and her dragonstone rolls out of her hand.

Linasi clutches her staff and fires another blast. This hits, dealing another 3 damage. The Bow Fighter clutches another arrow, firing it at Linasi. It rips through her white dress, hitting her in the stomach. The shot deals 19 damage, and Linasi drops her staff.

"So this is... Goodbye?" She says. Her silver staff bounces and falls into the grass by her lifeless body's side. Her grip becomes completely loose, and her face stays planted on the cold ground.

Nyrtale grabs his staff, spinning it as he casts Pain on the last other living target. The red sparks appear, and deal 3 damage. The quiver spills out its arrows and the bow drops to the ground as the Bow Fighter is defeated.

As the last of your foes falls to the ground you begin to hear a slow cello begin to play, the area around you fades into a dark purple, and your allies, both alive and fallen fade away. You look around here, and see nothing but endless void. 

"Welcome Master, to the Depth of Abyss. This place is something special. A store for everyone's souls, a gateway between the realms of the Tempest, Home, and Castle.

Alright then. Sounds good.

[アイミ 23]

Oh, something I also forgot to mention. 
Now that you have finished the trial, you may now enter other Tempests. Tempests are split into three types. Seasonal, Story, and Supplementary.

Seasonal Tempests are swapped out every once in a while, commonly focusing on recent and upcoming units. 
These Tempests include:

Banner Maps: A set of up to six trials based off the units of a new banner. Grant Summoning Shards on the first completion of each difficulty level.
Season Trials: A set of multiple trials in a row. Grant better rewards, however cannot prepare between trials.

Story Tempests last forever, going through the main story of this game. As new units are released, more story maps will be added. However, seasonal units do not count towards new story levels being added. These, just like Banner Maps grant Summoning Shards after completion.

Supplementary Tempests are switched out after every voting session. These focus on a specific unit type, allowing you to get extra EXP for them if you complete the trial.


There are four current Tempests. 

Story: Chapter 1
Festive Harvests (2022)
Winter Break (2022)
Special Training (Bows)

Each Tempest has a few difficulty levels, changing the power, amount, and tactics of the enemy. 
The scale goes from 1-10 on Special Training maps, and on Season Trials, but only from 1-4 on the rest of the maps.

1 is the easiest, and 10/4 is the hardest.

Chapter 2:
【Main Story:】
【Tempest 1: World of Windsworn】
【Trial 1: Traveler from Rhina (1)】

After buying the two revives, the two skills, and a pack of diapers, you are transported back into the halls of your ruined castle. Both Linasi and Monie are back up and well. Monie is floating around as she reads some of the books that remain in the castle. Nyrtale is by the throne, analyzing its crumbled remains. And Linasi is sitting at one of the tables, her hand is between her legs, and her feet are constantly bouncing. But you don't pay too much attention to any of them, instead looking towards your Summoning Stones from the last battle. You think about what kinds of people you would want for this next battle, and as you do you whisper the color into the stone. 

You step up, whisper the word green into the stone, then throw it against the wall. It shatters and a very thin light emerges. Through the light is a half-asleep person. They have slightly longer ears, and long, braided, light green hair. They have a long blue shirt, and brown shorts that expose their paler skin. They clutch a large green tome in their hand. 

"I. Am Terrowin. I'll help you out at some point, for now I'll sit down and sleep." Terrowin yawns before sitting down next to Linasi and resting his head on the cold metal table.

You pick up the next stone, enchanting it with the ideas of red heroes. You throw it, and it spins, shattering as it hits the wall. A burst of bright light emerges, and as you look away it slowly fades. You turn back to see a thin and dainty figure standing there. A girl with nearly corpse-like white skin wearing a warm red outfit clutches a knife before you. Her hair is split into two long, lilac pigtails reaching down to her hips, and her eyes are a mysterious, faded purple. She has a red coat-dress, trimmed with white and gold. On her feet are two long grey boots, and the knife in her hand is slowly dripping blood. As you look closer to her thighs, neck, and arms you notice more injuries. Around her neck is fading rope-burn, and her thighs and arms have blood trickling down them. 

"Participation in this festival should be the last thing I am worthy for. However Winter Break is not optional, so while I study how to end this, I'll try and make others feel better." She says as she walks to your side.

The last stone is clutched in your hands. You grip it and whisper blue into it. As it shatters against the wall from your throw, a bright flash of gold light emerges. From the light you can see the silhouette of a tall figure. On her back is a long spear, and you see her walk out of the light. She wears thin blue silks, underneath is a pale purple bikini. Her hair is a light blue, and is tied down the back into a single braid. 

"Guardian Deity, Bringer of Rain, Creator of the Azure. Those are my names, but I, Mare-Nave am obligated to be by your side. May you wield my powers well." She says, almost instructing you to not mess up too badly. 

You look towards your entire party of heroes, each with different specialties, and all ready to help fight for you. Then you begin marching onwards to the next tempest. As you reach the gates a singular one draws to your eyes. The golden arch and the blue mist entices you into it. And as you walk through, you see yourself in the middle of a town. There are long and winding streets of cobble up towards a statue of someone. As you enter you hear the voice of someone.

"Hold it right there." The voice yells out to you.
"I have taken up the mantle of protecting the people of this town." You look up the hill to see a girl with long grey-silver hair, she is clutching a tome in her hand, and her gaze is entirely unwavering from you.
"People come and plunder from here all the time, searching for the treasure of gods. I'm here to put an end to it all." She flicks her hair back and steps forwards.
"Stand down or feel the wrath of my heaven upon you."

You look around to see what enemies there are to face here. As you do you notice four groups of people. 
- To your left is a Bow Fighter and a Thief
- To the right is a Sword Fighter, Lance Fighter, and Red Mage
- Ahead, but before the statue is a Sword Knight, Cleric, and Ax Fighter
- And behind the statue, is a Cleric, Blue Mage, and ???.
- ??? Appears to be a Green Mage of some sort.

[Unbeknownst 185]

I’ll vote for including Hira in the party and leave the remaining four to other’s choice. (Monie and Nyrtale are the ones that can learn to heal, right?)

If no one else has a preference my default party would be in order of importance:

Hira, Monie, Linasi, Mare-Nave, Nyrtale

Attack the group on left. Prioritize targeting the thief first. 

[Red31299 67]

Send in: Hira, Monie, Linasi, Mare-Nave, and Nyrtale.

Attack the left group, focus down the bow fighter first with Mare-Nave.

No particular reason to diaper anyone yet.

Linasi is the only one who can heal without sacrificing another unit. But Nyrtale can learn healing spells fron other people. Just doesn't have one initially.
