A Wounded Return

When the El Search Party returned to Elrianode, the priestesses found the group and noticed that Ain was unresponsive. Unable to heal him, they concluded that they must sought the aid of the El Lady. Eve, Add, Elsword, and Raven volunteered to took Ain to Elysion. With the priestesses' help, they were sent off to Elysion. The remaining group learned that the seal beneath the El had been shut tight after the previous incident and concluded that they had to use the portal in Debrian Laboratory.

In order to gain the Demon Realm's coordinates, Gaia proceeded with his plans to retrieve Calonne alongside Laby, and Ara went along to visit her homeland.

Elesis, Lu, and Ciel decide to speak with Rosso. They found the fire master training in the outskirts of Elrianode. They learned that Rosso made it to the Demon Realm through the fissures opened up in the wake of the El Explosion, however couldn't progress to their own ends.

After their return to Elrianode, Rena found herself fatigued and fell unconscious. Darkmoon and Anduran went to tend to her. Rose sought Ventus out to try and help her establish radio communication with the people in Rigomor. Ventus took her and Zero to an Elriabrunnr where he and Rose sparred in order to create El waves. Eventually they successfully managed to receive a radio transmission, though unclear, from what appeared to be an individual who had located a fragment of Aegirp's soul and had assured the safety of Rigomor.

When Rena awoke, Ventus offered to aid her and they snuck out to visit an Elriabrunnr which greatly revitalized Rena. Lincy attempted to talk Rena out of going to the Demon Realm. Ventus knew they wouldn't be able to stop her from going, instead revealing that they had briefly seen another Elf in the Demon Realm. They then returned to Elrainode where they get scolded by Anduran.

With the others having left, Aisha and Chung also decided to spend their time seeking aid for their next venture to the Demon Realm. Meeting with Denif, the Water Master showed them a compass of his' which sought out the power of the Water El, suspecting it may work with Dark El. The two agreed to use the compass, however they had break the seal which bound it solely to Denif, though a trial of resolve. Both managed to pass the seal's test, now with the ability to use the compass. Aisha suggested Chung keep the compass.

The El Search Party still in Elrianode reconvened with each other with what they had learned individually. From the message gathered by Rose and Zero, Lu suspected the message came from the Far North based on the codenames.

Reunion

Elsword, Raven, Eve, Add, and Ain arrived in Elysion where they were greeted by Hernia and Solace. Hernia took Ain to tend to his condition while Elsword followed Solace to ask him something while Raven followed. Eve and Add went to meet with Adrian.

Eve met up with Adrian who provided her with the necessary tools and facilities to conduct her repairs. While she went off to repair herself, Add confronted Adrian. Add and Adrian struck a deal: Add would provide Adrian combat data on himself in exchange for components for Add's time travel. After multiple tests against Durenda, continuing his conversation with Adrian, Add began to loath the Nasod creator's mentality and called off his offer. Soon after, Eve completed her repairs and also wished to speak with her creator. She learned of Adrian's choice to abandon Elrios and start anew, and declined his offer to stay in Elysion, wishing to become the Nasod Queen he had originally designed her to be.

Elsword asked Solace if it was possible for him to gain the power of the El Masters to become stronger. Solace told them the power must came from the individual and critiques the two, resulting in a confrontation. After their spar, Elsword managed to vent his frustrations with his own weaknesses, accepting who he was; however, Solace noted that there was much more to the boy, as one who he'd been keeping an eye on and the one who managed to restore the El though their own power. Raven came to speak with the master and noticed that Solace was also part Nasod. Solace urged Raven to not do anything he would regret in his quest for atonement, especially noting Raven's shortened lifespan.

Hernia treated Ain; she already knew he was an angel of Ishmael and knew to transfer her El energy into him. Ain began to see flashes of Hernia's memories before Hernia herself appeared in his mind, where she helped Ain confront his lingering regrets about straying from his intended purpose in the eyes of the angels and Ishmael. Facing the manifestation of his anxiety, he regained consciousness.

Preparation

The group in Elysion reunited and returned to Elrianode, where the entire party except Ara and Laby regroup; they discussed what they had each learned. Elesis came back from messaging Velder and learned of missing nobles during the Demon Invasion that were suspected to have been taken into the Demon Realm. However without much more to do, they decided they should continue to investigate the message Rose received. As their conversation closed, they noticed Gaia, Ara, Laby, and Calonne approaching the city. During this time, the Master and Priestesses were having their own conversation: the El Masters revealed to the Priestesses that Ebalon was in fact the one responsible for the El Explosion and that they'd be conducting their own investigation into Henir's Order's true motivations independently from the El Search Party.

The Brother in Elrianode

Unfamiliar Home

Noah and the Landar Camp arrived to Elrianode; Noah decides to part ways and explore the grounds on his own. Noah encountered Darkmoon and Rosso investigating the aftermath of Henir's Order's attack. Rosso noticed Noah and the ring he took from Titania, causing things escalate quickly before Ventus and Lincy defused the situation. Lincy was able to communicate with Clamor, averting suspicion. The El Masters learned that Noah alleged to be Ebalon's brother from the past, so they took him to El Tower for further questioning.

Everyone's Reason

Denif, Gaia, and Artea worked to set arrangements for the Landars when the other Masters and Noah arrived. The two parties interrogated one another. Denif affirmed they could trust Noah and they left each to their own devices. Rosso decided to tail Noah due to learning the boy went to the Rosso Manor. Rosso probed Noah for what he knew and they discussed about Henir's Order, what they've done in the past and the location of their base potentially being one of the Seven Tower, taken to the Demon Realm. Noah and Rosso got into a heated argument and Noah passed out. When he came to and leveled out, he learned of Rosso's choice to become the Fire Master as to prevent anybody else from having to shoulder the burden of the role. He then told Noah that Darkmoon had been to see him and sent the boy off.

Righted Memory

Meeting with Darkmoon, she had learned Noah had passed out again and aimed to help heal him. They talked about the first Moon Priestess, Misty, and she took Noah to the Elriabrunnr to heal him. The boy went into slumber and entered his mindscape where he was confronted by his younger self. He was able to properly converse with his younger self, processing his thoughts and learning that his memories were even further altered than what he even knew now. Coming to, he needs to find out what memories had been altered.

The One Hidden

Upon learning of Noah's appearance in Elrianode from Solace, he and Hernia traveled to Elrianode to met the boy. Darkmoon sought out the El Lady to pry deeper into Noah's memories. Hernia agreed to help and put the boy into slumber once more. Noah was taken first through Hernia's lost memories, seeing a moment before the false Ebalon erased her memory and then was taken through into his own lost memories. There he could peek into a conversation between Misty and the false Ebalon, revealed to be a leader of Henir's Order, Dantelion, as well as knowledge of some entity which had came out of the El and the Dark El. Upon awakening, Noah relayed this knowledge to everybody, and the group pondered the order's next act. Noah decided he must head to the Demon Realm next.

Pruinaum

To White-Ghost Land

The El Search Party and Calonne caught each other up on all the information they know about the current situation regarding Berthe and the White-Ghost Army. Calonne readily accepted to aid the group and managed to get the portal in operating order. He provided the El Search Party with his useful though dated knowledge of Aegirp's soul fragments. He speculated the potential location of the Aurora base the El Search Party mentioned and planned to send them by the Deep-Sea Tunnel's surface entrance. The El Search Party departed; after they left, Calonne asked if the El Masters would allow him to use the portal once more.

First Soul Fragment

Teleported into the cold tundra of Pruinaum, the group tried to find the secret Aurora Operation Site, to little success. They were tracked down and ambushed by Asella and her men; however just before things got bad, Nichel arrived and vouched for the El Search Party. Nichel caught the group up on their situation as they returned to Aurora. Once at Aurora, the El Search Party provided them with the map they had gotten from Calonne, which greatly narrowed down where was the soul fragment Aurora had already been searching for. Nichel volunteered to escort the El Search Party to found the soul.

Guiding the El Search Party through the terrain, it appeared to have changed drastically from the map Calonne had provided. As they traveled down, a disembodied voice suddenly called out to Nichel. Aegirp's soul fragment began to relay memories of her struggles to maintain the White-Ghost Army, and other El Search Party members began to hear the voices as well. Approaching it, they found the Old Village Site and the mist parted, revealing the soul's location. Arriving at the altar, they were attacked by a yeti, Meson, who had absorbed a portion of the soul's power. Defeating him, they secured the soul, which Lu lets Nichel hold onto. Nichel sent a report back to Asella as the group prepared to head off to the location of the next soul fragment.

Second Soul Fragment

The group departed to the next location Winster had given them, which they'd been informed was now under White-Ghost occupation. Approaching, they connected with Aegirp's soul again and learned of the White-Ghost King's mixed Garen and Nous heritage. Making it to the Sanctuary of the Soul, the El Search Party split up and launched a surprise attack against the White-Ghost forces. They managed to round up all the soldiers so none of them could warn Berthe, and managed to swiftly secure the soul fragment. The leader of the demon squad, Baryon, conversed with the El Search Party, willing to tell them everything he knew in exchange for their own safety from Berthe and his forces. The El Search Party gathered that Haivan was now helping Berthe and managed to find a way to search for soul fragments, and that Berthe was now preparing to launch another invasion of Elrios. The group returned to Aurora with their captives.

Upon returning to Aurora, the group received a remote message from Winster informing them to stay put and that the souls were being tracked. The El Search Party were backed into a corner since they didn't want to expose Aurora's location; they decided to took the souls they did have and make their way to the capital to confront Berthe. Baryon told them about the abandoned railway that led straight to the capital. The Aurora forces led a distraction to lure the White-Ghost forces around the train away and the El Search Party snuck into the station. They found that the train Baryon mentioned was not there, but another train was on the next station over. The group boarded the train, then it suddenly began to move one its own: it was a trap set up by Haivan. Unable to stop the train, Haivan managed to steal their soul fragments and flee while the train was diverted away from the capital. The train entered a cave in the outskirts of the capital where they ran into Winster, who'd managed to escape his imprisonment. They learned the Aurora messages was a ruse by Haivan. Winster agreed to lead to the El Search Party back to the capital to try and destroy Berthe's portal.

End of Long Standing Enmity

Returning to the capital, they were immediately spotted by Haivan. They tried to understand Haivan's reasons, but he remained vague as they had caught him at a bad time. The alarms were rung as he retreated into the capital, and all of the White-Ghost Army were alerted of the invaders' presence. They were soon to be overwhelmed by the army coming from both sides, fortunately Asella and the Aurora forces arrived due to Nichel's updates. The Aurora forces fended off the White-Ghost Army as the main cast entered the castle. Hadron intervened and faced off the El Search Party. A portal suddenly opened up and Deborah stepped out; by sheer coincidence, Deborah's reckless entry through the portal in Elrianode resulted in her popping up at the right place at the right time to took on her former subordinate.

Halted in front of the portal gates, they were suddenly rerouted into the basement of the castle where they were greeted with an entire arsenal of Iserlohn weaponry and Haivan. Once defeated, he told them his actual intention of having Berthe obtaining Aegirp's soul and had their conflicting souls clash and destroy each other. Nichel asserted that Aegirp had a dream, even before she rose to power, and that they wanted to revive her to continue reaching that dream. Haivan lets them attempt to save Aegirp.

Reaching the portal, they came face to face with Berthe for a final confrontation. The Garen was much more powerful than he was before, and put up a fight. Though his immense power started to become imbalanced, and began to consume him. As his conflict with Aegirp's soul ate away at him, Elsword demanded to know the motive for their invasion of Elrios; Berthe told them that Elrios was merely a stepping stone for their conflict with the heavens. Berthe noted Elsword's very existence as proof of their cause, before the demon went completely mad from the uncontrollable power. The new form created from Berthe and Aegirp's clash created a barrier which consumed the entire castle. Haivan realized something had gone wrong and had Nichel and Winster escort him to the El Search Party. Reaching them, Haivan speculated that the White-Ghost King's will was attempting to destroy everything in the area to keep the portal from falling into the wrong hands. Haivan hatched a plan to get close to Aegirp's soul and take it into himself, sacrificing himself but averting the crisis. Nichel rejected his plan and decided that she would take the soul in herself, not as a sacrifice but believing she could convince the White-Ghost King. The El Search Party faced Aegirp's soul.

Nichel successfully came in contact with it. As the mist settled, Aegirp emerged in Nichel's body. In the aftermath, Aegirp caught up with her subordinates. Nichel regained control and thanked the El Search Party. Haivan approached them and asked about Nero, and mentioned that the demons preparing for the invasion of Elrios were camping in the Red-Demon Territory. The El Search Party grew concerned that Ran may have something up his sleeve and decided that the Red-Demon Territory would be their next destination.

Pruinaum Outskirts

Ancient Beast Slumbering in Pruinaum

While the El Search Party remained in Aurora, expedition teams discovered ruins emitting a powerful presence equal to that of a Demon God. They learned the seal was being slowly undone, however were unable to simply reseal the beast. They then decided to undo the seal themselves to strike down the beast before it reached full strength. Traveling deeper into the underground ruins, they obtained one half of the sealed door's lock mechanism down the left path. On the right, they found a place which was under such distortion that the underground cavern appeared to had a sunset sky and the area was lush and warm despite being hidden in the tundra of Pruinaum. They obtained the other half of the lock mechanism. Using the two pieces, the ancient demon was unleashed and the El Search Party fought against it. At that time, Noah had also just arrived in the demon realm and caught up with the group in the midst of their fierce battle. The managed to defeat the beast and apply a new seal over it. Now that it was once again lying dormant within the temple, the Aurora forces kept watch over the area.
