Boss 2: Zonplas, The Feather of Avarice
Nightmare Mode

Following Ur's advice, Adol makes his way to the peak of the Grana-Vallis Mountain range to find the sword. There, he finds a fragment of the Mirror of Zeme that was stolen from the Rehda. Upon grabbing it, a fairy calling herself Jue appears, summoning a monster with the power of the mirror fragment.

════════════════════════════
The Zonplas isn't too strenuous of a battle, but it can drag on depending on how it decides to attack. It's main attack is ramming its claw into the ground, sending up debris which causes damage for the duration that it's on the screen (quite annoying at times). When it floats out of range it will start blowing some dust (pixie dust?) that covers a big part of the screen, but isn't too hard to dodge. Later on in the fight it begins spitting out baby bees which do more damage than they normally do in the previous dungeon. The extra skill of the Livart sword makes it easy to blow them away, but as its health drops it starts shooting out enormous amounts of the babies. When it gets to that point, though, the Zonplas should be nearly dead.

With the beast defeated, Adol ends up in a different part of the mountain. Jue chastises the hero before making her escape, and Adol discovers Blirante, adding a second, fire-elemental sword to his arsenal.
