Trails in the Sky: Ruan Route Begins Lighthouse to Ruan | Gator Sharks, Bracer Emblem Stolen?!
11Trails in the Sky: Ruan Route Begins Lighthouse to Ruan | Gator Sharks, Bracer Emblem Stolen?!
Livestream schedule: https://www.levelupbrandon.com/
We’re back in Trails in the Sky (First Chapter) and it’s a whole vibe: we clear the Lighthouse maintenance quest, lunch like nobles, meet Chloe, chase Clem to the Mercia Orphanage, save Jimmy on the beach, and clap a roaming mini-boss before heading toward Ruan.
👉 Watch till the end for the big beach rescue + roaming monster fight, my quick tips on crit-steal/impede, AND our plan for the next episode.
What’s inside
Varin Lighthouse sweep with stun chains & cloak-and-dagger (hello, Joshua!)
Bento lunch at White Magnolia (yes, spoon-feeding happened; no, we’re not talking about it)
Chloe arrives… Clem pickpockets… Estelle learns about situational awareness the hard way
Mercia Orphanage tea & pie break (buff IRL)
Beach ambush: sharkgators everywhere, then a chunky roaming “Jabba-ish” mini-boss that actually swallows Joshua (rude)
Route set for Ruan + next-stream to-do list
Quick tips from this episode
Crit squares? Steal them (Comet/impede tools shine).
Earth/Wind nukes dumpster the shell/plant mobs; pre-cast Earth Guard before big AOEs.
If an NPC “accidentally” bumps you… check. your. badge.
Re-hook ➜ Around the middle we get the sweetest Chloe intro + Falcon cameo—stick around because that sets up everything in Ruan later.
Re-hook ➜ Final 15 minutes = roaming monster duel, huge loot (Skull Pendant), and our checklist for next time.
If you enjoy these Trails in the Sky dives, smash like, sub, and ring the bell so Estelle stops sprinting down ladders like it’s 1997.
Exploring the coast on our way to Ruan in Trails in the Sky (First Chapter): we wipe the Lighthouse quest, meet Chloe, visit the Mercia Orphanage, rescue Jimmy, and down a roaming monster for a juicy pendant drop. Watch to the end for combat tips (crit stealing, impede timing, Earth Guard opens), the big beach fight, the mini-boss that EATS JOSHUA, and our next-episode plan.
