Prologue A Dream of Snow

The Scarlet Tyrant Details and Unlock Condition

Chapter Master of Power - Chapter 1
Location Frostlands Region, Emberglow
Rec. Level 6

Unlocked by Talking to the Bartender in Emberglow

The Scarlet Tyrant is unlocked by traveling to Emberglow, located southeast of Wishvale, and talking to the bartender inside the town's pub. You'll need to pass through North Theatropolis Plains and Emberglow Wilds to reach this area. You'll find the pub on the east side of the first town map.

The Scarlet Tyrant Walkthrough

Quest Objectives

1
Talk to the Scarlet Wing
Talk to the Scarlet Wing named Velnorte on the left side of the room.
2
Follow Velnorte east
Exit the pub and move one screen to the east to follow Velnorte. Upon entering the next area, a battle will immediately start against the Abnormal Ruffian.
3
This miniboss is weak to Swords and Knives. It also hits hard, especially if you went straight to this main quest without doing other side quests or any EXP grinding.

Have the protagonist focus on breaking the Abnormal Ruffian's shield points while Stia heals either of you each turn.
4
Go to Velnorte's house
Head east and enter the second house along the street.
5
Before proceeding, we strongly recommend making a detour first and completing An Encounter with Macy before proceeding as this adds another healer to your team. You can find Macy inside the Inn near the entrance of Emberglow.
6
Follow Velnorte
Go back outside and move another screen to the east to reach Emberglow Laboratory: Entrance. Follow the path until you reach the top of the first staircase.
7
Turn left then go up where the path splits. To your right is an Elite Enemy that you can take on if you're up for a challenge. Follow the path further to the left to find the entrance to Emberglow Laboratory.
8
Follow the corridor to the left and enter through the first door after the turn to find another staircase that will take you to the upper floor.
9
Turn right and go through the doorway with the torches, then go up another staircase to reach a floor with a Save Point.
10
Exiting to the left leads you to the floor where Velnorte went. Follow the objective marker to the right side of the floor to trigger a cutscene.
11
Search for the servant Al
Go back downstairs and you'll find Al just past the Save Point. Approach him when you're ready to fight the main boss of this chapter: Al the Servant.
12
This boss fight almost requires two healers and an attacker as Al's attacks will hurt a lot even at Lv.10. Velnorte will also provide support in this battle by giving you various buffs and healing.
13
Observe Velnorte
You'll end up at the inn after the fight and a couple of cutscenes with Velnorte and Rinyuu, who will give you the Bell Amulet quest item. Exit the inn and return to Velnorte's house to complete the quest.

Al the Servant can deal up to 600 damage to random targets in a single turn with Wild Ebony Claw. It is possible for all three hits to land on a single party member, so it's important to keep everyone at full health and have some Olive of Life ready just in case an ally falls.
