Description:
Once again, eight more travelers will unite in order to complete their own personal journeys in Solistia, a land going through its own steam age. This time, travelers get both day and night path actions to increase their range of options, unfortunately for the residents of each town who have to put up with them. However, like before, a dark conspiracy ties all of their paths together, and they'll have to find the most broken class combinations if they want to win.

0:00 Recap
0:19 Northern Ryu Sands
1:17 Recruiting Hikari
A bunch of soldiers are oppressing the citizens, and we can choose to help Hikari defeat them. Fortunately, they're all weak in case Hikari is your second recruit.
3:56 War Against the South
Ku is at war with a southern nation, and Hikari Ku fights alongside Ritsu Mishuyo and Rai Mei. The enemy general claims Ku is a cursed clan for some reason. After that battle, General Mugen Ku calls Hikari weak for trying to spare the enemy leader. Hikari asks if Mugen can also hear a mysterious voice.
During the timeskip, Hikari, Ritsu, Rai, and Kazan go their separate ways.
19:01 Ku Castle Town
A soldier in black armor causes a scene in the bar and you have to duel him. Hikari can hold up to five NPC skills from dueling, which means there's a point to fighting people even if they aren't blocking any paths.
It looks like Hikari was put in charge of overseeing Ku because King Jigo Ku disfavored him, but this isn't actually the case. He wanted to see if Hikari was a capable leader who keep his people happy, and he wants to end the imperialistic ways of the nation. Apparently, he had a change of heart at some point, and now he wants Hikari to be the next king. Of course, Mugen won't take this lying down, so we'll have to investigate his schemes.
Hikari can bribe NPCs for information, which means he's not gated by stats and levels as hard as other travelers. The merchant claims Mugen is going to meet with an arms merchant at the Crest of Heroes, the hill with all the weapons of fallen warriors.
42:16 Southern Ku Sands
43:35 Coup
Turns out Mugen knows Jigo is planning to anoint Hikari as the next king, and he already started a military coup.
45:48 Betrayal
Turns out the information was a trap. Ritsu is the next boss, since he wants to go down in history as a conqueror working for Mugen.
48:24 Boss: Ritsu
Hikari's Latent Power taps into his family's curse to give himself a new skillset. It's just like the cursed version of Spirit Unification.
52:26 Curse
Hikari's curse tries to convince him to kill Ritsu, but Hikari resists. Ritsu runs away to fight another day.
54:09 Castle Ku
Mugen and his forces killed all the civilians.
You can grab items from the castle before reaching the event at the top. Of note is Oboro's journal. He might be involved in Mugen's coup somehow.
Mugen kills Jigo and declares his intention of starting a world war for some vague idea of national glory. This guy would be considered a "centrist" in the US empire. Mugen also states that he killed the civilians because he knew they would oppose his rule. Benkei OTK shows up and holds off Mugen's soldiers. Hikari has to flee for now, since no traveler is capable of soloing the main villain of their story without some weird cheese setup.
1:05:05 Fugitive Arc
Mugen frames Hikari for killing Jigo, which means Hikari isn't safe even outside of the castle town. For now, Hikari must recruit Kazan the strategist to help him defeat Mugen.
1:07:56 Ryu
This town is rather small and wasn't even featured much in Hikari's chapter 1. It shouldn't take as long to get most of the NPC items and lore.
1:10:36 Oresrush
There's a high level NPC that I can just bribe now, which expands the equipment shop's inventory.
