Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the 5-year time skip, you'll be able to wield two-handed swords and spears. You'll face armored shades that are resistant to normal attacks. Use Dark Execution to stun them, then press Circle to insta-kill them.
  2. 2
    After the fight, speak to the woman, then visit Popola. You'll receive a letter from Emil, enabling you to take on side quests again. Be aware that new, stronger enemies will appear in all areas. Weapon upgrades are not yet available. Some quests may be inaccessible until later.
  3. 3
    Head to the Manor and speak with the butler. After a scene, Emil will join your party. Go to the courtyard fountain and examine the shiny object.
  4. 4
    Underground Facility - B1: Enter the facility and stay close to Emil. Pick up the AA keycard in the corner. Open the gate and proceed to the end to find the KA keycard. Defeat shades that appear.
  5. 5
    Continue through the next gate, breaking crates and defeating shades. Near the SA keycard, there's a hidden room to the left leading to a gate. The two-handed sword 'Fang of Twins' can be found in a crate near this gate.
  6. 6
    Open the next gate and fight shades in the hall. Proceed through the next gate and defeat more shades. Go through the next gate to find stairs and a new document.
  7. 7
    Underground Facility - B2: Defeat shades in the first room and find the TA keycard. Open the gate.
  8. 8
    Navigate the small maze to find the NA Keycard. Defeat shades along the way.
  9. 9
    In the next room, find the gate by entering a few small rooms. No keycard is needed here.
  10. 10
    In the subsequent room with multiple small rooms, find the MA keycard in the central room. Use it to open the room south of it to get the YA key.
  11. 11
    A mini-boss will spawn outside. It can block with its arms but is weak to head attacks. Use jump attacks and magic. It's vulnerable before its shockwave attack.
  12. 12
    Use the YA key to open the last room and go down the stairs.
  13. 13
    Underground Facility - B3: Find the key in the second room towards the gate. Enter the room to its right (when facing south) and find a hidden passage on the south wall.
  14. 14
    Use the key to open the next gate. In the next room, try to open the gate, then defeat the shades. Another mini-boss will spawn; defeat it and pick up the item.
  15. 15
    Open the final gate and use the save point.
  16. 16
    Boss Fight: Number 6: This boss is weak to magic. Use Dark Blast constantly and a fully charged Dark Hand when close. Boost magic damage with words, drops, or capsules. The boss may climb walls; continue using Dark Blast. Destroy the attack gauge after its health reaches zero.
  17. 17
    Boss Fight: Tentacle Shade: This rematch is easier. Use the same strategy as before.
  18. 18
    After the scenes, see Devola at the fountain, then go to the Library and speak with Popola. Fast travel via the Canal is now available.
  19. 19
    A new quest is available. Go to the Canal (downstairs from the market bridge where you fought the boss) and speak to 'ol Red bag to use the canal for fast travel. Go to the Lost Shrine Rear Path.
  20. 20
    Return to the Lost Shrine: Enter the cave to reach the shrine's backside.
  21. 21
    Walk to the stone tower, climb the ladder, and cross the wooden walkway. Destroy boxes near the next ladder to get the 'Devil Queen' spear. Continue up until you enter a cave, reaching the shrine's first floor.
  22. 22
    You'll encounter armored enemies. Use Execution followed by Circle to kill them.
  23. 23
    The path up is the same, with some rooms featuring block puzzles instead of fights.
  24. 24
    Use the stairs to reach the 2nd floor. Go through nearby rooms to find the next set of stairs. Ignore the other stairs.
  25. 25
    Some rooms lead to dead ends and contain quest items for the 'Damaged m...' quest.
