Bonding/Trails of Cold Steel II

*See also Combat link*

## Description

Rean Schwarzer can earn **Link EXP** (リンク経験) with the rest of Class VII (except Crow), Toval Randonneur, Claire Rieveldt, Sharon Kreuger, Instructor Sara, President Towa and Princess Alfin by attending bonding events, choosing them as partners in Mech Battles, etc., in addition to regular link EXP obtained during battles and story events. Trial Chests will also grant link EXP to their specified characters. Keep in mind that for Mech Battles, the link EXP will go to the active partner **at the end of the battle**.

On resting days, a certain amount of bonding points will allow viewing a bonding event. One point will be consumed each time you view an event, but your bond with that character will be strengthened.

### Starting Levels

By default, every character starts at Link Level 2 (1000 Link EXP) with every other character. Some character pairings will start with a different level:

Additionally, loading Clear Data from *Trails of Cold Steel* will increase Rean's link EXP with characters whose final bonding event has been seen: 250 if the trophy/achievement was obtained and another 250 if the character was chosen in the Clear Data playthrough.

In the Reverie Corridor, every pairing's link EXP is raised to a minimum of 2500.

### Act 2 Reward

At the start of Act 2: "The Awakening Lions", if either Toval, Claire or Sharon have reached Link Level 3 (2000 Link EXP) with Rean, they will give him a unique accessory. If more than one have reached it, only the character with the highest Link EXP will give the accessory. Blade II will also become available, which earns Link EXP up to 5 times each part.

### Final Event

On the night of 12/30, Rean can spend time with a particular character if the requirements have been met, except for Toval, Claire and Sharon, earning the corresponding trophy/achievement and 1500 Link EXP. The requirements are as follows:

## List of Trial Chests

Trial chests are a type of chest that can only be opened if the required characters are in the player's party. When opened, they trigger an encounter for only those same characters, and if they win they gain 500 link EXP and the ability to go into Overdrive together.

Furthermore, if a trial chest is interacted without the required characters in the party, a chest quote is shown (similar to the ones found in the Liberl and Crossbell arcs).
Arngarmr

v **·** e

**Arngarmr** (アルンガルム), were a jaeger corps active in western Zemuria.

## Background

Arngarmr was a medium sized jaeger corps led by Vulcan. In Vuclan's own words, they took 'decent-sized jobs and did them well, pulling in solid business'. He claims they got fired up when fighting dangerous enemies and when new members joined, they took easier jobs for a while to ease newcomers in.

They met their demise when a young Rufus Albarea covertly hired them through a proxy (his father, Helmut Albarea) to assassinate Giliath Osborne as a sort of test to determine his skills. This event backfired with the Giliath being all too prepared and the corp being wiped out with only one survivor, a scarred Vulcan. He explains that they were expecting an easy job but were mercilessly gunned down by an enemy who expected them. They were given no chance to surrender and every member, newcomer, woman and child killed in cold blood. Vulcan was left alone surrounded by the corpses of his comrades.

Vulcan dedicated his life to avenging his fallen comrades and extracting vengeance on Osborne, joining the Imperial Liberation Front. During the October War, Vulcan met his end piloting an experimental Goliath unit. With his death, the corps was gone completely.
Ancient Zemurian Civilization

The **ancient Zemurian civilization** (古代ゼムリア文明) refers to the inhabitants of Zemuria prior to the Great Collapse. The civilization was destroyed during the Great Collapse, leaving behind advanced technologies, such as orbments, and ruins throughout the continent.

In practice, every remnant from before the Great Collapse is referred to as 'ancient'.

## Background

The ancient Zemurian civilization was divided into at least seven major factions, each centred around a Sept-Terrion.

* Aureole centred faction, led by Celeste D. Auslese, on the Liber Ark (Liberl).
* Demiourgos centred faction, led by the Crois Family, in what is now known as Crossbell.
* Ark Rouge centred faction, now known as the Hexen Clan, in the land of Erebos (Erebonia).
* Lost Zem centred faction, now known as the Gnomes, in the land of Erebos (Erebonia).
Breaking the Blue Crystal Ice

## Summary

Lavi's team continue their internal investigation as they tour the Empire through Raquel, Heimdallr and Roer. They arrive to Ymir which is publicly rumored as the hero's hometown, where the group find trouble in the village where all of the hot springs suddenly turn frozen. The team decides to help the village for any related information in return, leading to Lavi and Iselia to investigate the pipelines. The girls discover the cause to be a Septium-integrated monster, trapping Iseria in a crystal prison, and leaving Lavi to rescue her with only limited arsenal to do the job.

Battle evaluation

**Battle evaluation** (戦闘評価(せんとうひょうか)) refers to a set of **tactical bonuses** (タクティカルボーナス) that can be awarded after completed battles in any *Trails* series game starting with *Trails from Zero*. Each individual tactical bonus adds an additional multiplier to the base experience awarded to each character.

Some bonuses are unique and can only be earned once per battle. Others can be earned multiple times, up to 9 times each battle.

The tactical bonuses gained during battle appear on the right of the screen when they occur. All are shown in the tally at the end of battle, along with the sum of multipliers, as long as there's any experience to multiply. Losing or fleeing the battle does not give experience, and in some cases neither does meeting the victory condition.

## List of tactical bonuses

* Trails from Zero
* Trails to Azure
* Cold Steel I and II
* Cold Steel III and IV

*Trails from Zero*

*Trails to Azure*

*Cold Steel I* and *II*

1. ↑ All members have under 30% HP or over half are unable to fight.
2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 **Battle Chain**, **Overdrive**, and **Lost Art** are only present in *Trails of Cold Steel II*.

## Physical information

### Hair Color

Brown

v **·** e

**Bill Tausend** (ビル·タウゼント) is the CEO of the Verne Company in *Trails through Daybreak*.

## Profile

### Appearance

Bill Tausend is a middle-aged man with brown eyes, hair and a thin sour expression. He has a thin pencil moustache and wears his hair slicked to the side. Bill wears a navy blue pinstripe suit with gold stripes, a black waistcoat, white shirt and red neck tie. A handkerchief is visible in his pocket and he wears smart khaki shoes.

### Personality

Bill is focused entirely on looking after his profits and bottom line, and is willing to take advantages of others to bolster his position. He can get quite flustered when under pressure but can be quite conniving when it comes to thinking up ways to achieve his aims. Similarly, he gets annoyed very quickly with people who threaten his status quo.

### Background

Bill Tausend is the CEO of the Verne Company and as such, has great administrative power in the city of Basel. He is also one of the directors of the Basel Institute of Science, and seeks to shut down the astronomy department and observatory due to the lack of use it gets. Latoya Hamilton, formerly on the board of advisors at Verne, left Tausend in charge of the company when she went abroad.

### *Trails through Daybreak*

Prince Sherid Asverl hires Van Arkride and the Arkride Solutions Office to investigate peculiar goings on in the city of Basel after Tausend keeps providing vague responses and stalling for time. Bill reluctantly meets with Van upon his arrival and does the bare minimum to cooperate with their investigation, granting them the minimum access clearance and dismissing their speculation and questions. He then meets with the student group from Aramis High School. During this time, Quatre Salision acts as his assistant.

After David Callaghan goes missing, the group confront Tausend in his office, who is less than pleased to see them. Giscard calls him out on his inaction and demands he start taking responsibility. Tausend gives in and requests they don't tell anyone else what he reveals to them about Callaghan and Almata.

Tausend is later confronted by Sherid himself who is joined by Renne, representing the West Zemuria Technology Federation, Zeiss Central Factory and Epstein Foundation. The combined lecture from the two of them leaves him speechless.

### *Kuro no Kiseki II: Crimson Sin*

Following Almata's destruction, Tausend lost his position as CEO of the Verne Company due to both his inaction during the incident with David Callaghan and president Roy Gramheart believing that he wasn't fit to run the company anymore.

Alta

Alta is an inhabitant of the town of Bose.

She's usually found dining in the Anterose restaurant where she's a regular customer. She even went there with her grandfather on a regular basis when she was younger. Like many older people, Alta still remembers the Hundred Days War well, especially since her home region was the first one to be overrun by the Erebonian empire. Because of this, she has very mixed feelings of Erebonians now just visiting the Bose and is still a little uncomfortable in their presence.

Active Skills

--See also Passive Skills and Special Skills

Active skills use SP, OP or Wounds to activate an improved Action.

Note that Basic and Mastery versions of Skill (and Spell) Buffs and Debuffs stack, even in case of non-stackable Spell effects. So, for example, Insult Basic (-10% Melee Resistance) can be stacked with its Mastery version (-20% Melee Resistance) by another Character on the same target for the total of -30% Melee Resistance. This gives a reason to have multiple Buffers/Debuffers and gives Henchmen something to do with Buff/Debuff Skills.

Adjudicator Arnor

**Adjudicator Arnor** (調停者アルノール) is the founder of Erebonia and its first emperor.

## Profile

*Main article: House of Arnor*
Following the Great Collapse, the continent of Zemuria was plunged into an era defined by deterioration of all modes of life. In the land of Erebos, the people suffered from distress and poverty. They longed for a lasting and caring leader. Adjudicator Arnor, recognised by the Holy Beasts Roselia and Argres as unaffiliated with either Kinship of the Blaze and Kinship of the Earth, was elected and set up in the position as emperor. Hereditary succession guaranteed Arnor's descendants would continue to rule. Septian Church missionaries would acknowledge the legitimacy the Arnors under the reign of Adjudicator Arnor's grandson, Sion Arnor.

Adjudicator Arnor had access to the causality describing engine AZOTH, which he activated immediately after the Great Collapse and would record his empire's events for the 1206 years to come.

Brahm

Private Brahm is a soldier serving in the Royal Army.

He's stationed at the Wolf Fort checkpoint that lies on the border between Liberl and the Calvard Republic and is usually found guarding the gate on the Liberl side.

In Brahm's case, however, "guarding" usually means "sleeping on the job". Unlike the fortress that is Haken Gate in northern Liberl, Wolf Fort is a rather small checkpoint and unlike the militaristic atmosphere displayed at the Erebonian border, the border checkpoint separating Liberl and Calvard has an easy-going and laid-back vibe, centered around the chief watch officer's vision of "not making waves", though Brahm's working habits are extreme even in light of that philosophy.

Brahm used to be in a relationship with the factory worker Faye, but the two of them hit a rough spot and broke up, or rather: Faye broke up with Brahm. While on their trip to Elmo Village, Estelle, Joshua and Tita take a detour to Wolf Fort and meet Brahm, who's crying in his sleep over the breakup and even shouts her name when they talk to him. After hearing that the bracers have met his ex-girlfriend before, Brahm asks them if they have some time to help him out and tells them he wants to make up with Faye and has written a letter he wants her to read, but since he can't leave his post, he's unable to deliver it himself. Upon hearing Estelle remark that it would be a good idea to also include a gift, he gives the bracers some money and asks them to buy something to appeal to Faye's feminine side.

Estelle, Joshua and Tita return to Zeiss and deliver the letter and gift to Faye, who is moved by the gesture and eventually sends a letter back to Brahm, allowing him to rest a little easier. If the letter is delivered, Brahm will be seen again in Grancel attending the birthday celebration together with Faye (or rather, hanging out at the airport where Faye is geeking out over the Arseille). When talked to, he'll tell Estelle and Joshua that he's managed to patch things up with his girlfriend and thanks the two of them for helping him (while also noting that Estelle seems enjoying some "alone time" with her significant other as well, much to the latter's embarrassment).

Brahm mentions that he always gets sleepy whenever he's nervous, but that's either only partially to blame for his habit of sleeping on the job, or he's the world's most nervous person. While his commanding officer tolerates his lazing about since the border patrol at Wolf Fort is mostly for show anyway, Brahm is also seen asleep at the gate while the personnel at Wolf Fort is on security alert due to the attack on Zeiss Central Factory. It's suggested that his unreliable streak is what attracted Faye to him to begin with.

## Relations

Private Brahm is a collegue of  Private Henning.

In addition, he's a subordinate of  Chief Watch Officer Pace and  Watch Officer Gerwin.

He's also the former boyfriend of Faye, though they make up if Estelle and Joshua deliver Brahm's letter and gift to Faye.
Barranco

Private Barranco is a soldier serving in the Royal Army.

He's stationed at Gurune Gate separating the cities Rolent and Grancel and can be found guarding the gate on the Grancel side.

Like many of the soldiers in the Royal Army, Barranco is worried about the so-called terrorist threat and, unaware that the reported terrorists are members of the Intelligence Division, is hoping for the increasingly common special ops members near the Erbe Royal Villa to catch the Royal Guardsmen who've supposedly turned traitor. Due to the royal guardsmen being well-trained, Barranco is anxious about the idea of having to face on in battle, though he's still determined to do his duty if he were to come face to face with one.

Shortly after Estelle's and Joshua's arrival in the Grancel region, Barranco mentions having seen an odd girl with glasses on the Erbe Scenic Route. This was most likely Dorothy, but there's no further information on what she was doing there.

## Relations

Private Barranco is a collegue of  Private Ethan,  Private Selbourne,  Private Anden,  Private Logan,  Private Thomas and  Private Stoll.

He's also a subordinate of  Chief Watch Officer Robin and  Watch Officer Graves.
Beowulf

## Profile

### Introduction

S.1204

v **·** e

The **Beowulf** (ベイオウルフ号) is an airship used by the Red Constellation.

## Background

The red Constellation had long desired an airship after they mused that thier weaknesses was mobility and air support. They only considered the best, being Liberl's airships, but those do not often appear on the black market. Shirley Orlando even toyed with the idea of stealing one. Randy Orlando states that the corps had considered buying an assault ship as far back as when he was a member.

The Crois Family helped finance the purchase of the Beowulf as part of their plan. Wazy Hemisphere notes it is equiped with some of Ouroboros's technology. It is built like a tank, and can deploy air-based mines

### *Trails to Azure*

The Red Constellation first uses the Beowulf as they withdraw from the burning Crosbell City. Randy expresses that he can't beleive they got used to flying it so quickly.

Abbas notes that another flying object entered the santuary of the Azure Tree, noting it to be the Beowulf. Noel Seeker is worried that it will pursue them inside.

## *Trails of Cold Steel IV*

Randy wonders if Shirley is talking about the Beowulf when she mentions her 'ride.' Shirley invites Cedric Reise Arnor to view the Beowulf when they leave Erebonia at the end of the Great Twilight and Great War.
Achtzehn

The **Achtzehn** (アハツェン, *ahatsen*) is the main battle tank of the Imperial Army of Erebonia. It is developed and manufactured by the Reinford Company's 2nd Factory. The Achtzehn is eight arge long and equipped with a ten rege cannon. Its name, German for eighteen, refers to its 18 rege-thick armour.

One of the Achtzehn tanks was obtained by Gilbert Stein and used by him when he took over Eryn.
Bolle

Bolle is an inhabitant of the town of Ruan.

He's a sailor who regularly hangs out at the Aqua Rossa Bar in the southern part of town, like many in his line of work like to do.

After Mayor Dalmore gets arrested, many inhabitants of Ruan start discussing possible candidates they'd like to run for mayor and Bolle is among those with a pretty clear opinion. He doesn't like the idea of Ruan's most prominent merchant being elected into office and would prefer the harbormaster to get the job instead as he believes that the people of South Ruan simply wouldn't be happy working as tour guides instead of fishermen despite tourism bringing in bigger profits.

Ariel was a tall woman with rose-red hair and yellow eyes. She wore her hair loosely, with a bow tying it in the back. She wore a cream ruffled shirt with rolled up sleeves and a green ribbon tie, violet skirt with white pleated under layer and apron-like covering, matching corset and a green tasselled shawl around her waist.

### Personality

From what has been mentioned of Ariel from those who knew or knew of her, she had a cheerful personality and was very helpful to other members of her community, being described as having a 'giving it her all' attitude and a strong, kind-hearted woman. She was not a vengeful person, with inhabitants of Alster mentioning that she would not have liked others to go to war to avenge her son.

### Background

Ariel Lenheim was born a commoner in Alster, Erebonia.

Ariel helped out at the inn of Sandy's parents in Alster. During her time there, she shared many of her recipes. Her best known meal is the Lenheim Risotto, which is still served in the inn and regarded as 'legendary'.

Ariel enrolled at Thors Military Academy in the same year as Eugent Reise Arnor III. When he first met her, he was immediately attracted to her cheerfulness.

Ariel dropped out of the academy without graduating. Several years later in a remote region of Erebonia, she gave birth to their son, Olivert.

As the Crown Prince, Eugent wanted to accept her as his empress but met resistance from his father and the noble families whom repeatedly told him to change his mind about Ariel. He did introduce him to the Vander Family to get a guardian for Olivert.

To win favours of the Four Great Houses, one noble family hired jaegers to assassinate Ariel and Olivert. Thanks to Mueller Vander, first-born son of the Vander Family, Olivert managed to escape the assassination, but Ariel did not survive the raid.

## Trivia

* Olivert Reise Arnor uses his mother's surname in his commonly adopted disguise, the bard, Olivier Lenheim.
Apeiron

**Apeiron** also known as the **Holy Demon Sword Apeiron** (聖魔剣アペイロン) is an Artifact introduced in the possession of Gerard Dantes.

## Background

Apeiron is a sword artifact that channels both demonic and holy energies, although what exactly this entails is not made clear. It is a mid-grade legendary relic that has always been in the possession of the Eldarion bloodline, the former monarchy of Calvard. Only those of the Eldarion bloodline can use Apeiron, and it presents itself to the next heir.

After the fall of the Calvardian monarchy during the revolution, the Septian Church sought after it due to it being classed as a special grade artifact needing to be sealed. However, it had gone missing.

Due to its unknown properties, Apeiron can trigger an incomplete reactor weapon. It is the only known object that has this ability.

### *Trails through Daybreak*

Gerard has been using a sword as early as his unnamed appearance in the episode And the Sword Maiden Moves On. It is first named when Gerard brandishes it before Dingo Brad and uses it to detonate David Callaghan's unfinished reactor weapon. Despite the calculations for the weapon being unfinished, the special properties of the sword can mitigate the missing data and detonate it. This forms the crux of his plan in the Carnival where he threatens to detonate a second one.

Bergard Zeman recognises the sword and Gerard explains how he came to possess it and his lineage. After his death, the sword goes missing. Gerard appears to be using it in Genesis Tower, but it goes missing again afterwards.

### *Kuro no Kiseki II: Crimson Sin*

Ixs and Jolda reveal that they have Apeiron in their possession, as well as a new reactor weapon fashioned by the Thirteen Factories. They announce themselves as Gerard's children and therefore the inheritors of the Eldarion bloodline. They may use it to detonate the weapon and destroy Nemeth Island in a discarded timeline.
Action Time Battle

The **Action Time (AT) Battle** (ATバトル) is the traditional battle system in Trails games, used from *Trails in the Sky FC* until *Trails into Reverie*.

## Description

Action Time Battles take place turn-based on a grid. The units' turn order is shown by a tracker called the **AT Bar**. During the player character's turn, the player can attack, move, use items and a number of other actions introduced in subsequent refinements.

In addition to normal attacks, each character also has other methods available for action: moving without attacking, Arts, Crafts and S-Crafts, and using items. Arts are magic spells costing **Energy Points (EP)** that characters can use to attack opponents or support teammates but must take an additional turn to cast. Crafts are character-specific abilities costing **Craft Points (CP)** that can be similar to Arts but don't need an additional turn. S-Crafts are special Crafts that can be performed once a character has over 100 CP but completely depletes the CP gauge upon using it. S-Breaks are actions which allow pre-set S-Crafts to be unleashed immediately, moving the character to the top of the AT Bar.

## AT Bar and AT Bonuses

**Battle order bonuses** or **AT bonuses** are a feature of the **Action Time Battle** system of the *Trails* series. The system features a list on the left side of the screen, known as the **AT Bar** showing the order of turns that will occur next, with some turns having a bonus attached to them. The bonus comes into effect for the unit who takes the turn the bonus is attached to.

Players can take advantage of the bonuses by using the fact that arts take an additional turn to cast, by using S-Breaks at the desired time (if an S-Craft is ready), and by using the effects of various arts and crafts to delay or advance units into the desired positions.

## List of battle order bonuses

* Sky FC and SC
* Sky the 3rd
* Zero and Azure
* Cold Steel I and II
* Cold Steel III and IV
* Akatsuki

*Sky FC* and *SC*

*Sky the 3rd*

## Trivia

* Despite the name, this is technically a Conditional Turn Based battle system (CTB), not an actual Active Time battle system (ATB).
	+ An actual ATB is a system where each character has a "cooldown bar" which empties in real time after a character has acted: after it empties, said character can act again. In an ATB, a character can be attacked during their turn (when their action menu is displaying) and two characters' turns can happen one right after the other if both cooldown bars are empty.
	+ In a CTB, on the other hand, turn order does not rely on real time. The player can also see the icons of future turns, change their order and act accordingly.

Azure Tree/Domain of Penance

Domain of Penance

v **·** e

The **Domain of Penance** (戒(かい)の領域) is one of the four worlds within the Azure Tree.

## Background

The Domain of Passion is modeled after the mind of its host, Arios MacLaine. The Domain is covered in chains, representing Arios' guilt and the burdens of his choices, which resulted in the death of Guy Bannings and KeA's ascension to godhood. Gates and mechanisms lock the path forward, needing keys found in chests protected by monsters.

The Special Support Section enter the Domain of Penance after reaching the end of the Azure Tree's Third and final Sanctuary, with the elevator beyond the barrier leading to the Farthest End of the tree. The Domain needs Lloyd Bannings and the SSS to be accessed, as Arios represents the final barrier they must overcome to take KeA back.

The group finds Arios at the end of his Domain, ready to answer Lloyd's questions. He confirms Ian Grimwood was the mastermind behind the Azure-Zero Project, with his motivation being the airship crash that took his family and Lloyd and Guy's parents. Grimwood had deduced it had been the result of a covert war between the two major powers, which also caused the accident where Saya MacLaine died, and recruited Arios for the project.

Arios also confirms he was the one that switched the Rosenberg doll at the Schwarze Auction with KeA, intending to bring down Revache and awaken her. Finally, Lloyd asks for his full version of the death of Guy, who had deduced the existence of the project and the majority of their plans. Arios and Guy had fought, with neither wanting to back down, but Lloyd deduces Arios couldn't have been the killer. After defeating Arios, Lloyd deduces it was Grimwood himself who shot Guy, and Arios admits the true recollection of events before falling unconscious and opening the final barrier.

Addy

Addy is an inhabitant of the village of Elmo.

She's one of the people working at the Maple Leaf Inn where she runs the dining area and assists the chef with the cooking.

Addy and her husband used to live in Zeiss, but after the birth of their son Lucky, they moved to Elmo. Addy admits that she isn't very technically-minded and even has trouble changing a lightbulb, so she presumably isn't bothered not living in an advanced city such as Zeiss anymore.

She and her husband both work at the inn and whenever one of them is at home while the other's working, the person at home has to take care of the housework, but her husband is apparently not very good at that and it seems that work at the inn is partially a way for him to get out of some chores around his own house, meaning that between working at the inn and keeping her own household in order, Addy's life is quite busy.

After Zeiss Central Factory is attacked, the incident becomes the talk of the town, even in remote Elmo. Addy herself is a bit annoyed that the attack is all people can talk about while they seem to forget they're staying at an exceptional eastern resort.

## Relations

Addy is the wife of Cyril and the mother of Lucky.

She's also an employee of  Mrs. Mao.
Borden

Borden is an inhabitant of the town of Bose.

He's a very influential merchant who lives in the southern section of Bose together with his wife and son. His family's been in the trading business in Bose for generations and Borden's all too happy to be continuing that tradition, wishing for his son to eventually succeed him. He is, however, far from the only merchant in Bose who's trying to maximize his influence in town. Both Mirano and her father Trino are engaged in a fierce competition with him over the position of number 1 merchant in town. This rivalry was already present when he and Trino were kids as they were always fighting back then as well.

When the Capua Sky Bandits hijack the Linde and the Royal Army shuts down all air traffic, the ban puts a heavy strain on his profits and at some point he resorts to trying to take some of Trino's deals for himself while the latter is missing, only for Mirano to shame him into backing off. Despite his intense rivalry with the Trino family, he admits there's something missing without Trino around to compete with him.

Contrary to the Trinos, he likes to carefully and rationally analyze the situation before doing business instead of relying on his commercial instincts to see him through.

## Relations

Borden is the husband of Rionne and the father of Alvelle.

He's also an acquaintance and a business rival to both  Mister Trino and Mirano.
Aqua Shrine

v **·** e

The **Aqua Shrine** is one of the four main Spirit Shrines in eastern Erebonia, situated near Legram.

## *Trails of Cold Steel II*

### Background

The Aqua Shrine is first encountered by Rean's group while heading to Bareahard to search for Jusis. After defeating the Tildawn guardians at the end, Rean sees a vision from someone else's perspective during the War of the Lions.

After recruiting Professor Schmidt's help with creating a Zemurian Ore weapon for Valimar, Class VII enters the Shrine's proving grounds led by Emma and Celine. At the depths of the Shrine they find a grown cluster of Zemurian Ore protected by a Magic Knight. Once they obtain the first ore cluster, the Professor and George Nome are able to reinforce the Panzer Soldat sword Valimar had been using, but they are interrupted by news from Celdic.

## Clergy

### Clergy

Father OswaldSister Tatiana

v **·** e

**Bareahard Cathedral** (バリアハート大聖堂(たいせいどう)) is the cathedral church of Bareahard. Dedicated to Saint Veronica, it is the seat of the Archbishop of Bareahard, currently Archbishop Amon. It is considered as the center of the Septian Church in the Kreuzen Province and sometimes Erebonia as a whole.

Many cardinals now serving at the High Seat in Arteria have once served at the Bareahard Cathedral.

To compensate for the difference in social standing between children of noble and commoner families, the Bareahard Cathedral carries out charity activities multiple times per month. With this, they enforce the idea that social standings are irrelevant for the belief in Aidios.

## Background

#### Saint Veronica

The remains of Saint Veronica are stored in the Bareahard Cathedral. It is believed that her prayers saved the city from a great tragedy during the Dark Ages. She still serves as a role model for many believers to the present day.

Saint Veronica's efforts inspired Sister Tatiana to abandon her position as a noble for the sake of helping others.

#### War of the Lions

During the War of the Lions, many people found shelter in the cathedral and painted the fresco on its walls to express their gratitude.

#### Erebonian Civil War

During the Erebonian Civil War, daily masses were held at the Bareahard Cathedral to ease the people's fears. The clergy noticed a strong increase of nobles attending.

The statue of St. Veronica located in the Central Plaza began to shed black tears, which were said to be a sign of a crisis in the world. By investigating the phenomenon, Class VII found the tears were caused by a monster in the Bareahard Waterway, which had an adverse effect on the fountain's water, causing the statue to melt.
Air-Letten

v **·** e

**Air-Letten** (エア＝レッテン関所(せきしょ)) is the Royal Army's guarded checkpoint between the regions of Ruan and Zeiss in Liberl, situated 170 selge southeast of the City of Ruan.

## *Trails in the Sky FC*

### Background

The Air-Letten checkpoint is situated in a stone structure that was originally built during the Middle Ages. It was designed to let water flow from Valleria Lakeshore to the Azelia Bay through the man-made **Lhotse Waterway** (ローツェ水道(すいどう)). The present-day waterfalls are a popular attraction for tourists and fishing enthusiasts, the result of the ruins' erosion.

Estelle and Joshua can first head to Air-Letten on their way to convince Duke Dunan to stay elsewhere in order to avoid troubling the rest of travelers. Later the bracers travel through Air-Letten on their way to Zeiss, heading through the Kaldia Tunnel on foot.

### Quests

* Make Him Leave!: The bracers have to deal with a troublesome guest.

## *Trails in the Sky SC*

### Background

Estelle visits the checkpoint to interview one of the soldiers, who has witnessed a white shadow. There she meets a young girl by the name of Renne, who takes a liking to her, and her parents.

Hello there, beautiful. May I have a moment of your time?Please be aware spoilers for *Trails in the Sky SC* may be present in the following section. Hit [Show] on the right if the show must go on. Adios, amigos!

During the country-wide Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon, the orbment charging station stops functioning, and the lights illuminating Kaldia Tunnel go out, making it pitch-black inside. Despite security being increased, Estelle and the other bracers are granted a special exception that allows them to cross the checkpoint freely.
