These Cactus Blows have ridiculous defense and will only take 1hp of damage, no matter what attack we use. There is an interesting enemy here, though.

This is the same place we went through to get to the Sand Fortress in the Standard History, so the terrain isn't noteworthy. Now is a good time to run back to Alistel for a quick stay at the Inn, if it's needed. Rosch is removed from our party, and we head for Judgement Cliff to chase Heiss' messenger. It looked like he was heading for Judgement Cliff. Are you sure we should just let that guy go? I don't know why, but I got an odd feeling about him. Rosch rejoins the rest of the soldiers, and Stocke turns to face Raynie and Marco. I just need to wait for all of them to get here. What could they be thinking by sending in such a small number? If they're sending reinforcements, our numbers hardly qualify. It's probably been the most embattled region of the whole war. The same fortress we took back from Granorg the other day, right? Stocke, could I borrow you for a moment? It seems our destination is the Sand Fortress. Upon arrival, you are to join ranks with Viola's unit under her command. Heiss' Messenger: Your destination is the Sand Fortress. I'm to tell your unit the details concerning the next leg of the mission. Heiss' Messenger: Wait, I have one more duty to perform here. Get that message to Heiss and do it fast. Abandoning this brigade is the furthest thing from my mind right now. Then I'd like to deliver a message to Heiss.Consider the offer declined. Heiss' Messenger: That's for you to figure out. You'll suffer the same fate as that brigade.". Heiss' Messenger: I have a message from Heiss. Heiss' Messenger: What's with the dirty look? Didn't anyone tell you not to kill the messenger? I don't want any trouble. I suppose men like us have a sixth sense for our own kind. Heiss' Messenger: Ah, I thought I'd managed to blend into the army quite well. Kiel and Rosch step forward to greet the others, and a man steps out of the shadows to address Stocke. We can't do anything without the others, after all. We've only just arrived, so don't let your guard down.Still, it should be okay to take a breather. It's really nice for Marco to know these skills since he's a lot weaker than Stocke, so you don't have to waste Stocke's turn moving enemies around, and you can use him to hit the enemies once they're already in a pile. "If you find another Technique Scroll, bring it to me."Īs you can probably guess, there's also a scroll for Left Assault. The screen fades to black, and we hear sounds of combat. "In return, I'll teach you a special technique!" We now have one of Marco's Sword Scrolls, so let's head back to A New Mission and learn a new skill! We technically could have done this subquest sooner, but that would have meant rescuing him without discovering the body first, so I decided to delay it. "When Granorg invaded, I hid here, and the rain started a mudslide! I've been trapped here ever since! Let me thank you for saving my life!" Our destination is the node: The Closed Mine. Let's make a quick detour to do that now, then. We'll need to come back here sooner if we want to save his life. He was probably trapped here by the mudslides caused by the rain.) That's not a problem for us anymore! Unfortunately. There was a soldier trapped behind some rocks the last time we were here, but we didn't have the means to rescue him. There's only one interesting thing between us and our destination. This is the same place we've already trekked through too many times.


Just make sure you keep up with us, Kiel. Judgement Cliff is to the southwest! We can afford a steady pace, though. Upon entering, we're hit with some dialog. Part 11: The Valkyrie Our current mission is to meet up with an informant in Lazvil Hills.
