Pick up the Sage at the entrance and then make your way to the save to watch The Spiritcrest, the Dragon’s Lair skit before you save. A few steps to the north is a Monolith and just beyond is a boss fight with a Mountain Troll, but your objective is to merely survive for a short time before a scene triggers.

Boss: Zaveid

HP Category Weakness Resistance
4,509 Person None Earth
Drops: **None**

Like the previous fight with the Mountain Troll you’re not intended to dwindle this boss’ HP to zero, but just to deal enough damage that a scene will occur.

Armatize with Mikleo and keep your distance as you lay attacks into him, but save your Blast Gauge for healing since you won’t have time to pull off an attack with it. The key thing is to not allow Zaveid to get too close since his attacks can stun you, so keep moving by backstepping or sidestepping his attacks when he gets in too close.

When Zaveid shows up, armatize with Mikleo to attack from range while avoiding or guarding his attacks.

After the fight you can choose to bury the poor man that Zaveid “saved”, but make sure you chest the side of the large boulder for a Chamomile before moving on. The path is fairly linear, without a wind seraph’s map action, so continue along the path until you encounter a Male Assassin.

This fight shouldn’t be a hassle, since the assassin is merely a human, so defeat it with a chain of artes or by armatizing with Lailah for a scene.

Bury the man that was killed and continue along the path to an easy fight.

Continue up the mountain, hugging the left wall to find a Monolith , and when you reach the the small shrine with an objective marker you’ll want to head south.

Here you’ll find an Armadillo that triggers an event with Lailah, so make sure you kill it and watch the Lailah’s Perfectly Normal Obsession skit before grabbing the Saffron . You can now head to the small shrine for a scene and then check it for the Rayfalke Shrine discover and The Small Shrine with Flowers skit.

Defeat the armadillo near the Rayfalke Shrine for a hidden skit.

Continue up the mountain for another Monolith and make sure to stop at the save point for the skit The Mysterious Seraph before you continue for a scene. You’ll be dumped into a battle with the dragon of Spiritcrest, but you have no hope of winning and should just Escape via the battle menu.

Afterwards you’ll meet Edna and can then head back down the mountain. If you buried the man that Zaveid killed then Edna will be waiting for you, if not you will bury him now and then Edna will appear.

After meeting Edna, return to the entrance to recruit your Earth seraph.

Either way, watch the scenes that follow to obtain the Divine Artifact: Earth and Edna’s Grown-up Child title and then make your way back to Falkewin Hillside, automatically getting the Sorey’s Internal Comedy Routine skit before you leave.
