Lore

Lore Excerpt:

Airag was sitting in the same position for hours.
If strangers saw her, they probably would have thought she was dead.
While the few people around her watched her worriedly,
she'd been out of her body, flying over the devastated land in her spirit form.
She was so high up in the sky that everything on the ground looked like small dots.
Even from this high, she could sense the strongest imprint of spirit in the area.
Airag instantly flew there.
The blackened land and the darkened throne rushed up toward her.
Suddenly, a swirl of crimson energy rose, threatening her.
It violently pushed her away, forcing her back into her body. She opened her eyes.
Smiling, Airag knelt on the floor and started preparing for the Ritual.
Come, God of Destruction.

Move Set

• Water Vortex: Airag starts to engrave a blue 龜 circle in front of her to begin launching out a water cyclone forward, dealing respectable amount of damage per hit and being caught within the attack's range inflicts a  Frozen (Status).

• Pine Tree: Airag engraves a green 松 circle beneath the map's center section that suctions in players. Afterwards, a huge pine tree rises from the magic circle and knocks back anyone nearby above it, after which the pine cones fall out and cause multi-stage explosions all over the map.

• Earthly Steps: Functioning similarly to Elven Knight's  Ancient Deer, Airag engraves a violet 鹿 circle that has a purple colored Deer come out to use it's antlers to attack at close range either in front or behind in a total of three times as Airag teleports to the player's position.

• Gray Crane:She'll warp towards the center to engrave two gray colored 隺 circles from both sides and summons two large cranes that look identical to Exorcist's  Shikigami Legion that crash down to explode.

• Orb Throw: Airag throws six white orbs forward, then throws a larger black orb upwards to launch down at a player's position.

• Berserk
  • Soul Orb: As party members are pushed back, Airag teleports to the room's top center as she summons six orbs with either a 白 (White) or 黑 (Black) symbol in the center going from left to right along with a Casting a soul orb timer gauge below. While she isn't invulnerable during this pattern, there is a way to make Airag enter her groggy state. Depending on the orbs' color pattern:
  • If they are all white, hit them in the order of 1-2-3-4-6.
  • If they are all black, him them in the order of 1-3-4-5-6.

• Successfully clearing either order before the timer gauge fills will have the orbs disappear and Airag will enter a groggy state for 15 seconds with her defenses significantly lowered. Failing to clear the pattern doesn't exactly come with a huge penalty, other than the orbs exploding that'll cause damage upon contact and she'll repeat her moves all over again.
  • As long as the pattern is cleared, one of the prerequisites to enter Black Shrine's Secret Chamber has been completed.
