No Collectibles!
Monoco’s Station
2180 Chroma
From the rest point, if you look to the left, you’ll see two trains side by side. Head to the far side of the two trains to spot this chroma.
Boss Fight – Monoco
If you head straight past the rest point along the platform, a cutscene will trigger, leading to a duel against Monoco. He’ll start out by using a two-strike attack against a single party member, which is a dual attack.
The Gestral will also launch a single jump attack. His unique skill is that he can turn into a Nevron and use their attack; in our case, the Nevron he turns into will get a six-strike attack.
Outside of that, this battle is pretty straightforward. Once you’ve defeated Monoco, a cutscene will trigger.
Colour of Lumina
After the Monoco fight, follow the platform to find this lumina near a train!
Boss Fight – Stalact
As you exit the station, you’ll be greeted by the Stalact, which leads to a fight. The Nevron will start by using an earthquake attack that hits three times, and you’ll need to jump each time to avoid it.
After that initial attack, the game will then give you a tutorial on how to use Gradient Attacks. Defeat the Stalact to trigger another cutscene where Monoco joins the party.
Monoco’s Station (After Recruiting Monoco)
Following the fight with the Stalact, the people of Monoco’s Station return, and you can speak with them.
Grandis the Merchant
You can find Grandis standing near the entrance to the station, across from the flag. He will have items for sale, but most of them are locked behind completing quests. He will also request that the party bring him Eternal Ice to help augment their defenses.
Grandis Fashionist
The Fashionist can be found further down the platform, just past the rest point, wearing a red beret. You’ll need to speak to him as one of the ladies in the group. During the conversation, he’ll request that we let him make new clothes for us.
Before we can do that, though, you’ll need to best him in a battle of eloquence. To do this, he’ll give you a poetic verse, and you’ll need to say something back that matches what he said. You’ll need to do this with Lune, Maelle, and Sciel to get all three outfits. Just switch to each character and talk with him.
Below are the questions we got and the answers we chose. This will unlock the Pure outfit for each one.
Lune
- Life blooms like a rose, with petals soft and frail…
- Winter winds will whisper, the ending of the tale.
- Life’s a canvas painted with the colours of our strife…
- Death the artist’s final stroke, completing every life.
- Life sings a song of joy and pain, its notes both sweet and bitter…
- Its echoes fade to illness, our secrets follow after.
Maelle
- Life is but a fleeting dream, a whisper in the night…
- While shadows fade to silence, gone beyond our sight.
- Through the veil of shadows, life’s mysteries are spun…
- Death untangles threads, revealing what’s begun
- Life dances on the edge of time, a flicker in the breeze…
- Eternity then cradles us, a promise to appease.
Sciel
- Life’s a river winding through the valleys of despair…
- It meets the sea’s embrace, where sorrow turns to air.
- Life’s a story written with the ink of dreams and fear…
- And death the final chapter, where we shed our tears.
- Life’s a blazing comment, racing through the sky…
- Its light will softly fade, where wear skies lie.
