===Bright Spark===

The party stumbles upon Lettina, who tells them that three of the kids from the village, Nascion, Arrin, and Erina went out to play but have yet to return. Crossette, whom is eager to save the children, runs off. Before the rest of the party leaves Lettina tells Rex that her husband Raimond went to look for the kids and hasn't come back either. When the party finds Raimond he informs them that a group of Ignas took the kids. When the party finds the ignas they realize that they are both well organized and possess blades. Crossette, wanting to act quickly rushes in. This causes the igna leader to retreat with the kids. The party manages to rout the ignas and ultimately catch up to the leader in the Lud Cloudway. Mythra tells Crossette not to rush in again, to which Crossette begrudgingly agrees. The party discusses potential methods of reaching the children and defeating the ignas, but before a consensus is reached one of the children disobeys the igna's and gets hit. This angers Crossette, causing her to rush in despite her prior promise. She manages to make an opening allowing the rest of the party to approach. Once the ignas are defeated and everybody returns home, Crossette asks Pyra if she's more like her now. Pyra teases Crossette, leading her to vouch to make Pyra see her as an equal.
