Our run to rescue Donovan gets us to the Cathedral of Ilden. We are so close to the Tear, that it looks like it's just around the corner. However, we will be chasing after Armina. She's the flying monster that took the Shadeless after our fight. We also have a timer to beat. And of course, the run won't be easy. Debris falls from everywhere and some of the sections have monsters we need to defeat to keep moving. The rest of the way is shown by some glowing points where Briar uses her acrobatics to move forward to the next platform.
Once we are near Armina, we'll try to reach for Donovan, but she will kick us and prevent our rescue. We finish that section of platforming by going up a flight of stairs into the entrance of the Cathedral. We know what's up next.
No more running and teasing. We are fighting this transcended form of Armina now known as Nemesis. This boss has a variety of attacks. First, we can summon some spheres that can hurt us if we don't use our blue field. She slashes with her talons and claws. She can also summon waves of energy from the grow. The other attacks is a swooping strike while going towards us.
But that's just one phase. She can also take to the sky and we'll have to jump some platforms and avoid debris to get to her. Attacking while she's on the sky makes her go down. Then, she has a shield phase. The shield breaks with the read field. While she's protected, her attacks are the blue spheres and energy surges. Tough battle indeed.
When she's around half her health bar, she'll pass out. Now, her shadow takes control of her body. The shadow uses mirror images that we'll have to attack until we discover the real one. And this process repeats several times until we attack the body enough for Armina to take back control.
The final stage is an enraged state in which all attacks become more fierce and random. She overwhelmed us so much that two of the revives were necessary to finally put an end to this enemy. In the end, it is her shadow who ends up delivering the final blow. A fitting end for two personalities that despised each other so much!
Her crystal is left behind and we absorb it unlocking some extra memories from the rebirth of Briar and Lute as Chimeras.
