The following sections cover the optional content and areas that you can progress/complete at this point.

A Rose in Bloom

Warp to Ladylake and exit the town to the bridge, where you first met Rose, for a scene.

Boss: Rose / Zaveid (4)¶

Before engaging in this fight you’ll want to max your Blast Gauge with equipment and lower your Mystic Artes cost with any abilities you have unlocked. In addition, stack a skill 7 times will reduce your BG cost by 1 and you can then engage in fights around Lakehaven to fill your Blast Gauge.

This fight is difficult because Rose and Zaveid are extremely fast and can easily stunlock you if you aren’t guarding. At the start of the fight you’ll want to focus on taking out Rose by armatizing with Edna and unleashing multiple Mystic Artes.

Once you only have Zaveid to deal with you’ll find this battle significantly easier and can armatize with Mikleo to maximize your damage.

The one thing you need to watch out for is either characters Mystic Arte, since they can kill you and end the battle within seconds. To prevent this you’ll want to keep un-armatized until you have the BG to attack Zaveid, so that Sorey and the seraph will not die from the same Mystic Arte.

After the fight you’ll automatically trigger the skit Professors’ Conference and obtain Rose’s “Crown of Torment” Mystic Arte.

Alisha, the Princess

Head to the Noble’s District of Ladylake and speak with Alisha on the terrace for a scene. This will automatically trigger the skit It’ll All Be Okay and you’ll obtain the Round Glasses fashion item, but don’t miss the 30,000 gald in the chest on the terrace.

Siblings

Warp to the highest point on Rayfalke Spiritcrest and then make your way toward the summit until you trigger a cutscene with Edna. Zaveid and Edna will temporarily leave the party, so continue toward the summit and take the path to the south of the Dark Turtlez to find a gold chest with some Topaz Boots .

You can now return to the Dark Turtlez and head north to encounter Eizen, where Edna and Zaveid will return just in time for the battle.

Boss: Eizen¶

Eizen isn’t much of a threat, provided you don’t get anywhere close to him, so armatize with Mikleo and stay away from Eizen at all costs. Set your party members to attack from a distance to spare their HP and focus on exploiting the dragon category weakness with Six Falling Stars.

Make sure to guard when you see Eizen casting, since he is incredibly hard to interrupt, and try to stand far enough away that a tail spin won’t smack you in the face.

Provided you maxed your Blast Gauge on the way up the mountain and you use your Blast Gauge wisely, either for Mystic Artes or healing, this fight should go off without much of a hitch.

After the fight make sure to grab the Red Lavender and then check the Grave Atop the Mountain for the skit Eizen’s Grave . Head back down the summit to automatically trigger the skit Thanks to obtain the Pet Dragon fashion item and then warp back to Ladylake and rest at the Inn for the skit Hearts of the Seaphim .

You can now return to the grave at the summit of Rayfalke Spiritcrest for a scene to learn Edna’s “Shooting Stars” Mystic Arte.
