Walkthrough/Playthrough/Let's Play

Description:

Two men of different backgrounds, Carlton and Gregg, are chosen to go on separate journeys to Alluriga and discover the land's ancient secrets. Carlton has some suspicions about the true purpose of this journey while Gregg is ecstatic to finally rise above his station in life.

=======================================================

Instead of white orbs, this chapter gives you blue orbs, which increase every stat except HP and MP.

0:00 Crimgus

The duo finds themselves in Crimgus, a town in Almorigga's realm. No one here ages, but life is pretty miserable here and there seems to be no way to escape.

The duke states that Mt. Paynowch has a means of getting through the barrier on Fort Roche. He'll give you a pickaxe for breaking weak rocks.

The historian wants us to find his monocle.

9:37 The Grind

The house near the town is a sort of obstacle course where you have to grab as much loot as you can before the time limit. You can find the monocle in the forest area and if you're lucky, one of the chests will be replaced by a blue orb.

You can give the monocle to the historian and get a key, which leads to a tough bonus boss. Unlike me, you should get all the orbs before attempting it for the sake of linear progression of difficulty.

14:24 Mt. Paynowch

17:54 Boss: By-Sep

21:04 Cannon

Be sure to follow the cannon instructions correctly so you can launch a cannonball at the fort.

23:35 Tomb of Forgotten Unremembered Thoughts and Feelings

The key unlocks a tunnel leading to a portal, and the protagonists of Shadows of Adam pop out.

25:20 Boss: Kellan, Asrael, Curtis, and Talon

You're going to want to stock up on items like the Comet book, potions, etc. Asrael is the most annoying one because of her AOE and healing spells, but she can be silenced if you get lucky.

31:00 SoA Defeated

Make sure you're stocked up for the final dungeon. The normal enemies can be wiped easily with Comet spam, but there are 3 minibosses and a 2 phase final boss.

32:30 Fort Roque

You'll have to fight 3 minibosses on the way up and they're all the bosses that the chosen leader had to fight in their route.

36:28 Boss: High Priestess

37:47 Fort Roque P2

38:56 Boss: Golem

40:24 Fort Roque P3

42:54 Boss: Lightning King

45:16 Fort Roque P4

After the point of no return, you'll get some flashback scenes showing that King Karl had his son Carlton hidden away from the conflict with Almorigga. His wife, Mara, also had to flee and remarried to another man, bearing Gregg. This makes the protagonists half-brothers.

At the top, Almera/Elmer reveals himself as Almorigga. He needs the protagonists' royal blood to break the seal that Karl placed on him.

51:35 Boss: Almorigga (T-posing)

After his defeat, he states he technically fulfilled the conditions to regain his power by making the protagonists bleed, albeit non-lethally.

55:47 Boss: Almorigga (Floating Head)

His HP is hidden, but he's still vulnerable to DOT effects, so hopefully you still have poison books. If not, there's an accessory that allows normal attacks to inflict bleed.

1:02:42 Alluriga Restored

Almorigga claims he'll return somehow.

The ending briefly describes Almorigga's damage to Alluriga being undone. Carlton and Gregg return to their homes for a bit, but eventually plan on ruling Alluriga together.
