Previously, the party continued their trip through the Urayan Tunnels in the Pentelas Region. Past the Ruins of Seebu, they defeated the Gem-Crazy Spiders and concluded "A Nopon's Counsel", gaining access to Riku & Manana as a single Hero. Further on, however, they ran into Agnian soldiers using a smokescreen tactic. The party fled through the Quarry Road and Mine No. 3. They found the Cavern Waterway and rode it outside to the Aquifer Exhaust in the Great Cotte Falls. Now, the party will see if they managed to escape their pursuers.

The party resumes at the Aquifer Exhaust in the Great Cotte Falls, Pentelas Region. They set Riku & Manana as their current Hero.

As the party approaches the target marker ahead, a scene takes place. I figured they wouldn't get away so easily.

After the scene, it is boss time against the Lambda Ferronis. The Lambda Ferronis places a huge area of effect below it that depletes HP. Its sides extend to the edges of the battlefield. These conditions make it dangerous to position an Attacker to the side to break this enemy. Also, the Lambda Ferronis will occasionally deploy Avises during the battle. It is probably better to wait until a Chain Attack to knock the Ferronis down.

When the Lambda Ferronis is defeated, a longer cutscene sequence takes place. The Agnian party members unlock their Ouroboros forms. However, what follows is traumatic to the Kevesi party members.

Next, it is boss time against Consul J of Moebius. Ouroboros Orders are now available during Chain Attacks. I pull one off in this battle, and it looks quite powerful.

Another cutscene sequence takes place after the battle. Following the scene, there is a Soul Link tutorial.

Then, the party discovers the Colony Lamba Ferronis location and the Third Cataract location. Then, they head east into Colony Lambda. This triggers another scene.

The player gains control of Taion. He talks to his friends and explores the colony in search of Isurd.

Behind the medical tent in the east, he finds a Container.

On the Clearwater Shelf landmark in the northeast, Taion enters the tent. This triggers a cutscene sequence. Isurd gives Taion a little errand. The party's next waypoint is just outside the colony.

Following the scene, the party gains control. They explore Colony Lambda and chat with the NPCs.

In the northwest, they open a shed and find a Container.

In the north, there is a Container on a ledge just above the stream.

Another Container is behind Commander Isurd's tent on the Clearwater Shelf. The map shows an NPC at the Clearwater Shelf, but I can't seem to see this individual.

Before the party saves, they pick up some Soul Tree upgrades, especially for the Agnian party members. Taion's Soul Tree is a bit intricate. Interlink partners can now share certain abilities through Soul Link.

Next time, the party will go outside to continue the story. They may also begin working on Colony Lambda quests. Since they have liberated Colony Lambda, the Agnian warning level has increased.

Thanks for watching!
