Word to the Wise:
[This game is more like an interactive cartoon. The chapters are like episodes. So instead of telling the story from one point of view, it'll tell the story from many character's view. There is no real lead character.. just protagonists.
You follow your goal to reach the end of the game. . completing each episode, unlocking all of the hidden unlockables and uncovering all the easter eggs. When you're finished with the episode you get one last cutscene and the credits.]
Arc 2:
Chapter 2: An unlikely friend and an unwanted enemy.

[Notes from the creator]
Rose/Shadow
==========================
Unique characters. They cause opponents to bleed to death even if they dont deal damage. Unlike poison, when they cut the enemy the bleeding never stops until the opponent dies.
Rose's Wolf Blitz boosts stats. It may take more than one Wolf Blitz to inflict the heightened status. Wolf Blitz will cause recoil damage in the higher levels.
Shadow is stronger against some elements. Fire being one.
Kel
=================================
Even holding back will mostly likely kill all her opponents in one hit. You don't need strategy using her, you can basically run through the whole level by hitting S.
Lilidya/Ophillia
=================================
Lilidya has stronger defense than Ophillia, Ophillia is overall stronger than Lilidya.
Ophillia will easily die against magic element attacks so be careful when you use her.
Ophillia can weaken/ poison opponents.
Michael/Miranda
==================================
They will help in pinch situations, Michael has a high crit rating and Miranda has the best buffs in game.
Miranda though easily defeated revives swiftly. Michael revives after a long cool down period.
You can kill michael/miranda on mistake so be careful!
Hidden secrets.
==================================
In EVERY chapter there at least five hidden unlockables. Some are easily found, others need a strategy guide to find.
Improvements
==================================
I didn't like the mapping in Chapter 1.. so I improved it.

Mid Autumn Garden
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mid Autumn Garden Chapter 1!
Rose:
Swiftest and weakest of the Rose/Shadow pair.
Rose is immune to poison/bleeding. Though he's weak, his
strength isn't set like Shadow's and can be stacked.
His melee attacks are able to cause bleeding.
Shadow:
Most effective if evolved through Wolves Berries.
He is also immune to poison/bleeding. His melee
attacks are able to cause bleeding.
Lilidya:
Weakest of the Lilidya/Ophillia pair.
Though she's weakest in strength she's strongest
against status effects. Like Rose her strength can
be stacked.
Ophillia:
Weakest against status effects/magic yet strongest in game
hands down. She's immune to weaken and dazzle.
Vadeena:
Weakest skill-wise, she has no attack skills.. yet she's able to play with
the opponents mind and use their ailments to her advantage. She is the only
character without the ability to see contracts or possess them. Yet she is
also the only character thats able to use different weapons/armors.
Unlockables:
Chapter 1.
-------------
Latisha
The weakest attack wise, strongest skill wise.. she has little to no attack strength
and is unreliable when it comes down to speed and power (when she runs out of SP). Yet
when she has SP she is one of the strongest fighters in game.
Chapter 2.
--------------
Michael
His girl-like appearance throws off his true strength. He seems to be the only human partner
that is stronger than his contract. His skills are one of the strongest self buffing skills in game.
His only drawback is that he can't equip any weapons or armor.
Miranda
One of the most powerful healers in game, she is immune to every status effect in game. She
also has the most powerful reanimation spells in game. She doesn't have to wait for allies to
fall, she can kill allies herself and revive them with godly buffs. Only problem is anything can
one hit her easily and she's so slow that it may not be worth it to use her without buffing her up yourself.
Mid Autumn Garden:
Chapter 2: Loki Prison
With Rose leaving the party Lilidya/Vadeena must become detectives to find him and his hell contract. Rose's sanity is breaking and Lilidya/Vadeena has a set deadline to find them.. all trails lead to one place "Loki Prison". Is the A.O.B. really finished with Contractor or is it just the beginning? The questions are answered in this chapter of Mid Autumn Garden..

Latisha
---------
Recommended level: 1
Recommended Items: None
The best way to beat her:
Use the Wolves Berry on Shadow that you find in the treasure chest.
Use Rose and shadow's melee attack until she begins bleeding then use
Shadow's spiral fang.
1st Boss Marathon.
------------------------
Aluxes/Malice:
Recommended Level: 3-4
Recommended Items: Potion x2 (Gained from Ghosts)
Aluxes:
Does 220 damage with normal attack
Does 400 damage with cross cut
Drops:
Tonic
Wolves Berry
The best way to beat them:
Use the Wolves Berry to strengthen Shadow even more.
Level up until you're level 3/4 with Shadow/ Rose. Rose learns Spiral Fang at level 4.. so it
should be childs play to beat them at that level. Use Rose's two spiral fangs to kill Malice first.
(If you kill Aluxes first Malice will revive Aluxes and they will kill you). Then Melee attack Aluxes to death.
Cyrus/Mace:
Recommended Level: 4-5
Recommended Items: Potion x2 (Gained from Ghosts)
The best way to beat them:
As SOON as you start the battle use Shadow's Spiral Fang on Mace. Afterwards melee Cyrus
to death. You should be able to beat the two in a few turns.
Kel:
Recommended Level: 4-5
Recommended Items: Potion x3/ Tonic/ Essence x2
The best way to beat her:
Rose and Shadow should be on heal duty. Shadow should have two power breaks left if
you played your cards right. Use those two power breaks as soon as possible after that
Shadow should stand aside and heal everyone with Rose until Lilidya/Ophillia runs out of SP.
Leave -just- enough SP for Lilidya to use a Mass heal later (you'll need it). -Only- use Essences on Ophillia, she's the only one that can do massive damage. When everyone runs out of SP use melee on Kel until she dies. The whole party should be able to do 1k damage to Kel with melee attacks alone per turn. If you play your cards right you wont need to use too many potions/essences.
Congrats you've beaten the obstacle of bosses that have made many cry time and time again! *Sigh* You shouldn't be forced to do such a hard thing so early in the game. You're rewarded by the creator for not giving up with ....

they start bleeding.. soon as you do that unleash all of your spiral fangs (from Rose and Shadow)until you're out of SP.. Use four essences on Shadow, and use one on Rose. By the time you finish unleashing your barrage of Spiral Fangs the Parasite and his hands should be finished.

Embrace the Night
Nega Status
Drops:
Seed of Strength
The best way to beat her:
Any one of her skills can one hit anyone if you aren't cautious. You -must- use Vadeena's status skills against her to win. Firstly use Womanly Caress on Ophillia (Boosts MDEF).. you also might want to use the Amplifier sold at the item shop (boosts MDEF). If you use these two Ophillia wont be as weak against magic attacks. To further weaken Latisha use Feeble and Delay on her then go to town on her. She'll occassionally use Nega Status so repeat again until she dies.

Summon
Drops:
How to beat him:
Feeble/Delay him soon as you start. He's powerful but he's slow. You'll be able to hit him four times before he can hit you once. All you have to do is out last him and he'll die soon enough.. yet, before he dies he will summon a corpse which may catch you offguard, so be sure to heal as soon as he does. You'll recieve a rainbow prism when you finish him off.. Refine items like that at the Equipment Crystal. You may want to refine the item you get from the room before the exit/entrance.. that will help you with the hidden boss in the well.

Maimel
Optional Boss Fights/Cutscenes 1:
Enlightened Latisha (Only chance to get her to join your party)
Recommended Level: 9-10
Recommended Items: (All bought at Pub in Maimel)
Eternal Essence x 5, Tonic x 5, Potent Tonic x5, Potion x 10
Does:
Dark Lullaby: (One hit KO)
Darkness:
Mass Darkness:
How to beat her:
To be honest, you'll need luck as well as a strategy for her. Her Dark Lullaby is very annoying and you cant really guard against it. Nevertheless when you begin the battle start out with Lilidya using Womanly Carress on Ophillia, and Ophillia using Sharp on Lilidya. You may want Lilidya to use womanly carress on herself as well.. she'll need it. When you're all buffed out have Lilidya use Illusion on her until she dies. Ophillia will have to go on Tank/heal duty when needed. Keep everyone buffed.. and things should go more or less smoothly. Have Lilidya use Illusion and Ophillia keep Lilidya's SP in check until she passes out. Latisha is enlightened this time around so if you want to win against her, you'll actually have to fight with determination this time around.
Remember this with your skills you do 1k per turn, with melee alone you do 500 per turn. You dont have to worry about damage control, just survival.

Martial Lands: Deep Forest
Chapter 1: Final Boss Fight
Contractor:
Recommended Level: 9-10
Recommended Items: Potion x 10, Essence x 2, Eternal Essence x 2, Tonic x 4
Recommended Party:
Lilidya, Ophillia, Latisha (if unlocked), and Vadeena
Does:
(Status Skills)
Barrier
Fire, Summon.
How to beat him:
Have Ophillia cast Sharp on Lilidya and Vadeena, have Vadeena cast delay/feeble on Contractor.
Latisha and Lilidya should be the main attackers in this fight. Ophillia should be the jack of all trades.
Have the Sharpened Lilidya bombard the Contractor with Illusions, and Latisha use Greater Darkness on him. Ophillia and Vadeena should be on the attack yet be ready to buff/debuff. If he uses Barrier Latisha should be able to debuff him (unfortunately of all buffs/debuffs) with Nega-Status level 2.
Once the Deities are summon make sure you kill them as soon as you see them. The Angel will raise anyone that has fallen, and the demon will one hit kill anyone who is an ally. The contractor will use an annoying skill called Radiate which can one hit everyone if used right which is why Ophillia and Latisha should be constantly caressed by Lilidya to keep them brave in battle.
After the battle there will be one more cutscene and whamo Chapter 1 has ended.
Whew!
I'm hoping to see if the battleplay is good to cause that the main point of these games.
