Description:
The United Kingdom of Euchronia is home to many races, but there is discrimination and castes based on both race and wealth, leading to unrest. Worse yet, Count Louis Guiabern assassinated King Hythlodaeus V, starting a competition over the next in line for the throne. The protagonist, an Elda boy, must gather allies for the Resistance and find a way to save the comatose crown prince so that peace can be restored to the realm, but this will be a difficult task due to how his race is at the bottom of the caste.

0:00 Recap
0:19 Camp Near Fort
8:32 Akademeia
This seems to be a mental world, sort of. The librarian, More, is the author of the fantasy novel and was sealed here by the late king. All Archetypes are tied to specific allies, and he's the one who is associated with the Seeker.
14:04 Next Destination
16:58 Nord Forest Trail
You get attacked by two soldiers, who can target the Seeker's fire weakness.
29:07 Nord Mines
Captain Klinger turns out to be trying to kill any survivors. He wants the new recruits dead so that Louis can present himself as a savior to the problem of the humans. It turns out that Louis and Klinger also left Strohl's hometown, Halia, to be destroyed. This enrages Strohl and causes him to unlock the Warrior Archetype.
42:08 Boss: Captain Klinger
46:51 Warrior Bond
49:59 Akademeia
You can now have characters change their Archetypes, but it costs MAG. Grius can change to either Mage or Warrior, but unlike me, you should absolutely change the protag to Mage ASAP because the dungeon has fire-using enemies and bosses. Regardless, having two mages will really help in defeating the bosses.
1:13:59 Nord Mines
Before the first boss, you'll find a Rest Stop. It doesn't actually heal you, but it does allow you to save and go to Akademeia. If you're low on MP, have the protagonist switch to Mage and kill underleveled enemies on the field. The moths are the closest to the Rest Stop and they have a chance of dropping Fairy Dust, which is your only source of AOE healing at this point.
1:35:26 Boss: Homo Fulquilo
You'll want the two mages in the backrow and the warrior in front, since the boss has a powerful attack that hits only the front. This still won't be an easy fight due to the boss's self-buff.
1:38:51 Nord Mines
The dragon boss is optional, but if you want to skip it, you have to stealth your way through. I recommend using the protag's Mage trick to top out everyone's MP so you can come at the boss at full power.
1:41:34 Boss: Fire Dragon Mauna
The boss can't self-buff like the previous one, so it should be a bit easier in some ways.
1:48:30 Nord Mines
You now get to take the dragon's treasure, which the game's economy is probably balanced around, lol.
Once you go into the next room, the dragon will attack the bridge, forcing you to run through an obstacle course.
1:52:54 Camp
1:56:47 Flashback of the Assassination
That red-haired Roussainte seems to be in this flashback too as one of the prince's guards. Grius believes the mage who cursed the prince is Louis.
1:58:53 Camp
