This guide is a walkthrough of Chapter IV The Arsion Incident in Astria Ascending.
Disturbance in Arsion
Arsion
Speak with the 7 people outside in Arsion then enter the large house on the eastern side to trigger a cutscene. Afterwards, take the western exit to reach the Blazing Field.
Blazing Field
Once in the Blazing Field, work your way to the Aries Temple. When you get close a cutscene will trigger leading to a fight with some Arktan Soldiers. Defeat them to continue the cutscene then proceed to the Aries Temple which is through the door to the Oasis.
Oasis
Approach the statue in the Oasis to trigger a boss fight against Argon, The Aries Astrae. This will be similar to your last fight against him. He’ll use fire-based moves and can silence the party. Whenever you reduce his health to 0, he transforms and heals. He’ll transform a second time after you get its health to 0. He can inflict Omni-blind which blinds the party. He’s also weak to physical attacks and can heal himself. After you defeat him, a cutscene will trigger. When it concludes, travel through the eastern door.
Aries Temple
Keep pressing forward until you trigger another cutscene. Work your way through the area until you find the Miglove that took Eko in the upper level of the first area. Defeat it then head to the second area to trigger a cutscene. Follow the creature. When you find him a second time, he’ll summon Hellhounds to fight with him. Defeat them all then obtain the Power of Fire for the Zodiac Ring. Keep heading forward until you find him again. This time you’ll need to inspect multiple pots. For each incorrect one that you pick, you’ll be surprise attacked and will need to fight off a group of enemies. We found him in the top central one. Follow him east then he’ll be in another set of pot under 3 wooden platforms. Follow the path west to find him in the pots in the middle of the area. After the brief scene, head through the eastern door to fight him again. Defeat him to retrieve Eko! Keep heading east to find Seryn. When the cutscene concludes, a battle will ensue. Defeat the enemies for another cutscene to trigger.
