Chapter 6B: Embrace the Dark

After siding your adoptive family, Felicia, your personal maid, (or if you're using a female avatar, Jakob, your butler) will arrive just in time as a reinforcement. Your objective in this map is to defeat four enemies. You should be able to control Xander and everyone else now so regroup at the bridge and start taking on the enemies there. Xander and Ryoma are isolated but you can dry the water in the river by activating the dragon vein near Elise.

You can send Elise to back up Xander while letting him engage Ryoma in battle. Ryoma has better accuracy so you'll have to heal up Xander every turn. Engage Hinoka and Takumi on the bridge and defeat them. As long as you don't enter the other Hoshidan units' attack range, you can heal up and not deal with reinforcements immediately. If you can't hurt Ryoma because of Xanders' low hit rate and Ryoma's high evasion, you'll have to defeat Yukimura and Sakura instead to end this battle.

After the battle, Lilith will take you to the Astral Plane where you have to maintain your own castle. (Note: If you have another castle from your previous route, it will still be your castle until you update new castle data)
