Previously, the party explored Megistris City and Castle in search of treasures. They also went to the throne room in Megistris Castle for a scene with King Purpopan, Minister Id, and Fosteil. Now, the party will go to the Big Glittering Windmill in Windmill Hill to investigate with some of Purpopan's and Id's soldiers.
Megistris (time 0:25):
The party resumes in the church in Megistris City. They go outside and Zoom to the Big Glittering Windmill Tower.
Big Glittering Windmill Tower (time 2:36):
As the party arrives at the Big Glittering Windmill Tower, a scene takes place with the soldiers that Purpopan and Id sent. The next objective is the Ritual Hall, Inside the Big Glittering Windmill.
Armed with the Thief's Key, the party now opens the area's black chests. At G-2 behind the weapon shop, a black chest contains an Amor Seco Essence (アモールの水).
In the western storeroom at B-3/B-4, a black chest contains a Purple Eye (パープルアイ).
In a storeroom on floor 1F of the tower's base, a black chest at F-4 contains a Sunny Citrine (黄色の宝石).
On floor 2F of the tower's base, Poriri at E-4 near the elevator has story info. The party visits the bazaar and picks up a few materials.
The player earns the accolade "I Love Shopping" for buying 10 or more items from the bazaar.
The party also deposits most of their remaining gold at the bank.
They take the elevator at E-4 up the windmill.
Inside the Big Glittering Windmill (time 10:28):
The party goes up to floor 2F. They take the door at D-3/E-3 to the Ritual Hall. Within, a scene takes place with the soldiers that Purpopan and Id sent. Uh oh, it looks like the trouble came with them.
After the scene, it is boss time against Magic Soldier Hypnos (魔兵ヒプノス) and Magic Soldier Thanatos (魔兵タナト). Of the two, Hypnos on the right has more irritating abilities. He can mute party members with Fizzle and put multiple party members to sleep with Kasnooze. He can also boost his guard rate. Thanatos can give himself Tension Burn, which increases his tension when he takes attacks. Thanatos can also heal himself or Hypnos with Midheal.
Due to Hypnos's debuffs, taking him out first is a good idea. Resistance to sleep is a good idea. Daston has spells and abilities available that will cure party members of sleep. This is a good time to test out any Coup de Grâce abilities you may have learned. A dispelling ability, such as Rake 'n' Break, is useful if the bosses buff themselves. Notably, be sure to dispel Thanatos's Tension Burn before his tension gets out of hand.
At the end of the battle, the bosses leave 5,000 experience points and 3,000 gold. Heorot reaches Thief Level 36 and earns 1 skill point for a total of 7. Hussar reaches Level 30. He learns the Coup de Grâce ability Three Pieces (三枚下ろし) and earns 4 skill points for a total of 4. Daston reaches Level 31 and earns 4 skill points for a total of 11.
Afterwards, another scene with Hypnos and Thanatos takes place. The next destination is the throne room in Megistris Castle.
The party regains control on floor 2F after the scene. Under Hammers, Daston spends 9 points on the ability Cancel Shot (キャンセルショット).
The party goes down to floor 1F and takes the elevator at E-4 back downstairs.
Big Glittering Windmill Tower (time 28:29):
The party arrives at floor 2F in the tower's base. Poriri at E-4 has story info.
The party goes outside and Zooms back to Megistris City.
Megistris (time 29:18):
The party visits the inn on the lower level of town to get some rest.
On the upper level, they enter Megistris Castle at D-2.
Megistris Castle (time 30:25):
The party goes up to floor 2F. Outside the door to the throne room, Pahapen at G-4 has story info.
The party takes the door at G-3/G-4 to the throne room. This triggers a scene with Minister Id and King Purpopan. Hm, old Id seems surprised by the party's return. Unfortunately, he has a strong hold on the ill king.
After the scene, the party gains control outside the throne room. Their next objective is to leave the castle.
Pahapen at G-4 on floor 2F has more story info.
The description is continued in the comments.
