Touch the Untouchable Friend

Once Fairy has mapped the path that connects to where the rebels are, keep on going left until you see the blue ghost. Use your Infrared Camera to go on Night Mode, and touch the Untouchable Friend surrounded by the four Specters to save it.

Obtain The First Newspaper

From the blue ghost's location, simply course through the tiles until you spot a blue newspaper, or The Truth. This contains clues about the Twin Marionnettes inside the Ballet Twins. There also Gear Coins along the way, so remember to pick them up!

Defeat Four Red Ghosts

From the newspaper's location, ride along the conveyor belt, which should bring you southward. There are a bunch of wayward tiles around, but so long as you keep on treading down, you should be on the right track!

Stop until you see four Untouchable Friends, which you can defeat using the Infrared Camera. The unlit light is located just past the four ghosts!

Touch the Second Untouchable Friend

Two tiles to the right of the bulb, is another blue ghost whose corresponding Untouchable Friend is located along the path that trails upward. Fortunately, there's only a single path here , which means simply follow the path in Night Mode to touch the second Untouchable Friend!

Turn-on the Second Unlit Light

Once the path has unlocked, use the Eject Mechanism to propel you along the upward path. Eous will stop once it hits a fragile wall, which Corin will automatically break. The Unlit Light is also right by it, which you can turn-on to reveal a Gear Coin, and another Blue Newspaper.

Head to Where the Rebels Are

From the second Blue Newspaper's location, simply go down until you see an enclosed area with a key to its left, and a locked valve to its right. This area is also where the Rebels are, so prepare for a fight before interacting with the enemy tile!

Obtain Hollow Observation Data 1

After defeating the rebels, pick up the key, and get the Hollow Observation Data behind it. Then, head straight to the locked valve, and open it using the key you just looted. There are no other collectibles around, so use the upward passage to get teleported to the upper level!

Get the Third Blue Newspaper

From the warp point, pick up the first Key, and head right to gain access to the new area's circuit system. Once Fairy is done mapping the area, immediately head to the third Newspaper a couple of tiles away from a blue ghost, which you can unlock thru Night Mode.

Get the Second Key

After unlocking the blue ghost, use the Eject Mechanism beside it, and wait for it to stop propelling you to the area below. Then, get the second Key from its tile, and open the Closed Gate using 4000 Gear Coins to get a bunch of Dennies, and an Elite Supply Box!

Obtain Hollow Observation Data 2

From the Closed Gate, go to your left, then upward, until you see the elevator tile behind a locked valve. But before unlocking the valve, make sure to get the Hollow Observation Data 2 just a tile away to its left. Once you've picked up all the loot, head to the roof via the elevator tile.

Save Rain

After defeating the enemies, and getting off the elevator, immediately head towards the rebels. The path is linear, so simply keep going left, upward, then downward until you're able to touch their tile. You will fight the rebels at this point, so make sure you're prepared!

Head to the Exit Within Tower B

Once you've saved and snagged Rain from the Rebels, the hollow map will change, rendering the nearby exit unusable. After remapping a new exit within Tower B, go down and keep on going right until you hit a path southbound. There will be Ethereals along the way, but Rina and the gang will defeat them for you, thereby avoiding any fights between them!

Obtain Hollow Observation Data 3

After passing through the enemies, the third and last Hollow Observation Data is waiting for you along the way. There's also an Ether Dewdrop behind it to heal your party, which we recommend you do, as the boss fight next room is incredibly tough!

Head to the Lobby of Tower B

Once you've made sure your party is prepared, hit the switch at the end path open the final tile. There's also the last blue newspaper right in the middle which just talks about the spatial fissure in Tower B. Lastly, touch the exit to fight the Twin Marionnettes!
