Part 110

Update 56



The next target is in the Administrative District


As expected due to power being removed because the Power Plant blew up, it is goddamn dark.

First things first: EXPOSITORY DIALOG!


"Argilla was a kind nurse, who treated me like a little sister.
And... The chief doctor was very gentle.
I loved him.

But, it was all just a dream, That was just how I saw those people in my mind."


Serph was a dick.



"A lot of talented children went mad... And died.
I remember this one really bright kid from South America or the Caribbean or something.
He was an early Shaman candidate.
Heh, I can still see that little guy's dreadlocks."

CIELO ORIGIN ESTABLISHED.
So that wraps up why Sera saw almost all of the Embryon in her made-up paradise.
Still, what about Gale?









"I believe in Serph, leader of the Embryon."




"It was hard to tell in the darkness, but it came from the direction of the corporate building."

No, it is not Superman.




"It was originally a small group of researchers, funded by the government to study God.
When the world was destroyed five years ago, Madame established the Karma Society as we now know it.
She's survived many hardships..."

HAD.




"What happened?
How could it turn out like this?"




"But, I think people still could have escaped underground.
Why would she think something like that could lead to enlightenment?"



Well, that's about it in that area




Well, back to the building.



Darkness does not improve or ruin the ambiance significantly.
Also, the place is much easier to navigate than the Lab, so there's that.



Cielo, being the dreadlocked jamaican that he is, deserves only the cheapest mantras available (well they have to be saved up for Serph and Sera, you see.)



Consume being the Hunt skill I've been using the most for the entire game, even if Cielo is unlikely to eat many foes. No, that job goes to Sera.
Or Gale.



"Full Banquet
Chakra Walk
MAX Critical"

Full Banquet ensures 100% eateries if used in an enemy when it is Full Moon. Or somesuch.
Don't really like it.












Balance is a good thing. Luck still higher than the others, like it should be.





Gale also got a level up when traversing the building and getting near the destination.




Which is right here. Where the party first met the Trihubvana.

Shortest angel so far. Because it could be POTENTIALLY very annoying. (Veoh)
As you may remember, Gabriel was the nonasshole angel in SMT2 (Viddler)
At least the characterization is more or less constant.(Youtube)

(Also: The hell, is my imagination or are my captures getting worse? I dunno, I remember them being slightly sharper. Will have to check some things later.)




Behind the door, there is an Angel that needs to be elminated.




Short introduction, but hey, whatever.
Yes, those are SMT2 references.





Gabriel is probably the most annoying of the Angels, since she specializes in Status effects.
That is bad.


She can inflict ALL the possible status effects (maybe with the exception of hungry and Bat, but those don't really count, do they?)






It is reccomended to bring a bunch of panaceas and assorted ailment-cures to the battle.



As well as having the leader with the Skull ring. (The Skull ring never leaves the leader's hand. Never)



Eventually, Gabriel falls. As they all do.




Well, that was a bit anticlimactic.

Three down (?), one to go.
Notice: None have been eaten. They just disappear.
