===The fight===
*You are assisted by Arciela.
**Arciela is a very powerful tank.
**Arciela casts Paralyze frequently, although The Keeper usually resists it.
**Arciela uses the weapon skill Dynastic Gravitas.
**The battle will end in failure if Arciela is defeated.
*The battle is against:
**The Keeper (SCH/BLM) (Uses Aeolian Edge, Gust Slash and Cyclone; casts Kaustra) 
**Mistdagger (NIN)
**The Briars (Galka) (WAR) (Uses Raging Rush, Fell Cleave))
**The Briars (Elvaan)
*The Keeper is by far the most resistant to damage.
*The Keeper occasionally casts Kaustra against a single target for massive damage.
*All four enemies are immune to Stun.
*All four enemies run to a random target to perform weapon skills, regardless of hate.
*The Briars (Galka) and The Briars (Elvaan) perform skillchains together when they do this.
*Avatars using merit blood pacts with the Dashavatara Sachet are extremely effective in dispatching the three lesser NMs.
*Arciela is extremely effective in tanking The Keeper, but needs healing support.
*Even if you die, if Arciela defeats the remaining opponents by herself (very likely if there's only one left and you reduced his HP somewhat), then it still counts as a victory.
