After a tense scene involving Augusta, Iuno, and House Sylvia Head Julia, head back up to the upper city overlooking the arena to contemplate on what just happened. You can take the elevator, but it is faster to fly back up there.
Use the Copper Mirror of Truth
Buling confirms the Rover's suspicions that there is an anomaly happening in Septimont. Make use of her Copper Mirror of Truth she gave to them, and find three locations that are ringing with bell chimes.

After lowering the enemy team's HP down to a certain point, the battle will change. Now, you will have to fight multiple Tacet Discords on your own, also involving Gladiators and a Kerasaur.
Defeat Arsinosa
After defeating the waves of Tacet Discords, you get to control Cartethyia by hersel in the fight against the Guardian Echo, Arsinosa! Defeat the Echo to finish the quest!
