- Outside the camp, High Confessor Evelyn Lafidel was waiting for them, asking for them to surrender.
- She said that her and the party were no different, she was using the help of a demon to destroy magic, while they were using magic to destroy a demon.
- After it was clear that neither party was willing to acquiesce, Evelyn took out crystal and transformed into an Emerald Dragon.
- The party began fighting her and the Demon, who was possessing Daedrin Falstani, the Emperor's older brother.
- After a gruelling and difficult battle, the party managed to subdue and destroy Evelyn, leaving them alone with the Demon.
- During the battle, the demon had not been fighting, only for the party to realize that he simply had whatever features of the person he was possessing; Daedrin was just a normal human with no magic.
- Knowing he was beaten, the party asked the Demon what his plan was.
- He told them it was to distract them, and that this was the plan. Given that they were here, his plan had already succeeded.
- He was going to destroy everything.
- His plan was to ally with a group of Elves that desired the Titan's soul that was hidden inside Naveria castle.
- They would use the soul to travel to Terra's soul and remove it, thus destroying the Faerealm and the Darkness, and dooming the planet to death.
- So, the party used their new ability, Titan's Requiem, to send the Demon back from where he came.
- During the requiem, however, the demon's plan had completed, and they felt the destruction of the Faerealm.
- Hurrying along, they finished the ritual, and then Revana focused on the soul of Terra's power, and magically transported the party to her Soul.
- Once they arrived there, they noticed the bodies of many Sun Elves, having been slayed by someone or something.
- They also noticed the Golden Child, a version of Revana given as a gift by the Guardian Rudal, given to her during the Trial of Rudal.
- The child told them that Revana's parents, Dreamer Elden and Nya, had tricked the Sun Elves into going along with their plan, only to betray them
- Apparently, they were going to take Terra's Soul and travel to Lunos, the moon and source of all Circle of the Moon druids, and revive the Titan.
- The party then noticed that the old Titan's Soul was left here, the one that Terra had been pouring her life into for thousands of years.
- While not strong enough to revive the Faerealm, it would be strong enough to keep the planet alive for a brief time.
- They all grabbed the titan's soul and put it where Terra's soul had once been.
- When they touched the soul, all of them become far more powerful, leveling to 20 and gaining new titan powers.
