You just finished a quest and already you’ve been tasked with another. Except this one is more urgent… Better get moving then!

As you report back after having finished that third Challenge Quest, a samurai will tell you that Navarre has gone missing in Naraku. Of course, Navarre is a prideful piece of sh– I mean snob, and would be willing to choose death over … being rescued by a Casualry, so you have to be quiet about it publicly.

Anyways, prepare for the journey (be sure to rest in the Barracks and grab some Detox Solutions!) and enter Naraku.

Begin your journey by heading to the 3rd Stratum. To get there, return to where you fought the Orthrus earlier and look to the south. There should be two westbound paths; break the wormwood off the northern of the two and go along down to the next floor.

As you arrive, you’ll notice a hooded man - one who was absent if you came before. He suddenly summons two Naga!

Cough Splutter Poison isn’t good for your health, so don’t stay in the poison for long and be sure to cure it once you reach the other side.

After the battle, head south, then read the sign. You’ll notice that there’s poison to be fared against later on, which is true. If you didn’t get the Detox Solutions as I previous recommended, go back and get them. Go through the door nearby, then attack the wormwood you can see in front of you.

Behind it is a hole near the ground. Press Down then A to go into it. Once inside, to the right is a Detox Solution .

Return outside and head east. As you pass the torches, you’ll suddenly meet Walter, who’s been injured, who reveals something important that you probably already knew about Navarre. Further to the east is a hole near the wall base, although it yields nothing.

So you’ll have to go north. Through that purple water. Crap. Just beeline north to the fork and head west. Break down the wormwood there and you’ll find a chest containing a Dies Irae ! Equip it now; the relatively low hit rate is made up for by an over 50% boost in general power.

Turn around and finish cross the poison via the other branch of the fork. On the other side, cure yourself of the poison with an item or skill, and probably heal some HP as well. From there, head east at the north/east fork, then north at the next fork.

Crawl up the ledge partway across and proceed along to the chest, which contains some HP-healing Medicine . Now beeline your way southward and go through the door.

Continue south and break down the wormwood wall on the way, although it just makes a shortcut to the start of the poison-water pit. Go back north and through the door, then west, then north at the fork. As you go along, you’ll again meet the hooded man, who decides to teach you another “lesson”.

After the battle, the hooded man is shocked at the failure of his plan to put the Casualries in their place. While Jonathan and Isabeau elaborate on why they helped Flynn, Walter walks in and Jonathan catches him up. Meanwhile, we decide to head further in, leaving the hooded man to be punished another day.

He gladly flees, leaving a trail of urine behind. The three others accompany you to Navarre. As you progress along the path, another person arrives in samurai armor. He appears rather suspicious, no? Continue along to what is indeed a funny-looking wall and enter, despite the presence within.

The Eastern Kingdom of Mikado is a peaceful land whose inhabitants are rigidly divided into two castes: the common Casualry and the elite Luxurors. Normally, it is impossible to transcend the class you were born into; that is, unless you are chosen at the age of eighteen by “the Gauntlet Rite” to become a Samurai, one of the sworn protectors of Mikado. You are chosen to become a Samurai, and learn a truth kept hidden from the general population: that beneath Mikado lies Naruku, a realm of demons which the Samurai are tasked with suppressing.
