The village chief, Slenge, greets Sorey when they arrive. The party splits up to search for clues. You can speak to them individually if you’d like to hear what each of the members thinks is suspicious or of interest. As you approach the cave entrance at the back of the village, Sorey and Rose overhear the villagers’ suspicions that the outsiders are here to take the village chief away. Slenge reassures them that as long as they keep the outsiders from entering the Pureland (whatever is beyond the cave entrance), they have nothing to worry about. He retreats into the cave, and Sorey is shocked to notice malevolence in the area.

The Turtlez is here in the village, so make sure to purchase a new Adventure Map. Then, make your way over to the blocked off entrance to gain Edna’s map action.

With the rocks cleared, enter the cave behind the village and discover what Slenge is really up to. The large cavern is a warehouse holding many cases of fake Elixir. They determine that Slenge is either Pope Masedra or a conspirator, since the fake goods are being distributed with an official church seal, and all the profits from the sales are coming to Gododdin.

MAP ACTION

Giant’s Strength: Press  when Edna is in your party to use the earth seraph’s strength. You can clear certain breakable boulders (breakable objects will display a “???” message when you stand in front of them) and open new paths. You can also start battles with an advantage against enemies with earth weaknesses if you strike one with Giant’s Strength to initiate battle.

Resistance

Furious that they’ve snuck into the warehouse, a villager corrupted by malevolence attacks! This should be easy enough to dispatch without armatization. Use elemental martial artes so that you don’t waste damage that can be resisted.

After the battle, they confront Slenge who admits to being Pope Masedra. Masedra explains that he ran away from his duties and was saved by the people of Gododdin, and that he’s supporting the village using the fake elixir sales.

Suddenly, Masedra collapses, a result of the toxic fake elixir creation process. Speak to all of the villagers surrounding their chief to progress. Masedra recovers slightly and bids Sorey to follow him back into the cave.

Continue deeper into the Pureland. Masedra is waiting at the entrance to Igraine, the Shrine of the Fire Trial. The pope recites, from memory, the contents of the inscription in the Shrinechurch. When you are prepared to face the first of the Shepherd’s trials, enter Igraine.
