Trails in the Sky Sc Girl in White Dress
Pre-chapter
Next stop: Grancel
Talk to Zin to find out more about his past
Olivier finds out the hard way not to hit on Kloe
Just like the other chapters, talk to everyone to finish the airship part.
Grancel
At the Grancel Bracer Guild, the team finds out that the Bracers have decided to help out the military. But all discussions are to be handled in person, to prevent the Ouroboros from eavesdropping over the telephone system. Elnan believes the military needs the Bracers' help because there is a signing ceremony for the Mutual Non-aggression Treaty next weekend and if the Ouroboros has something planned....
Mutual Non-aggression Treaty
Estelle: Mutual non-aggression Treaty ... what's that?
Kloe: It's an agreement between Liberl, the Erebonian Empire, and the Republic of Calvard. It's goal is to not use war, but dialogue to resolve issues.
The phone rings and the team is sent off to the Erbe Royal Villa to find a missing child, but before then ...
- Check out the job board for 2 sidequests
- Exit the Bracer Guild and head north to the Sunnybell Inn to buy some food:
Hot Seafood Soup (熱海鮮湯) $1200, Imitation Handmade Pie (仿手工派) $400
(If you have the extra cash, it's also a good idea to stock up on a few more Bitter Tomato Sandwich) - Feel free to upgrade your weapon and armour at the store across the street from the Bracer Guild
- From the weapon store, head south to the popcorn stand for High Mobility Popcorn (高機動爆米花) $250
- Then head across the street again to the crepe stand for Agility Crepe (敏捷可麗餅) $350, and Mysterious Crepe (神秘可麗餅) $750
- Finally, take the Grancel south exit.
Erbe Royal Villa
With the monster out of the way, enter Erbe Royal Villa. The butler Raymond will ask you to help him find this missing child. From the entrance hall, take the left exit. You get some interesting dialogue if you search around :P
Enter the first door and Estelle gets to meet Duke Dunan, who is under house arrest for what he did in Trails in the Sky FC. Then go up to the third room to the meeting room where Raymond is and find the missing child behind the counter near the wine bottles.
Return to the Grancel Bracer Build.
Investigating the benches
Estelle: Ah, maybe she's in the bushes!
Agate: Hay hay, we're not looking for a real cat
The game is very picky where you have to stand to find Renne
Olivier getting shot down by Renne
Olivier: huhu~ here little girl, hold my hand, let Olivier escort you to the Bracer Guild
Renne: Thank you for your offer, but Renne would rather have that big sister guide the way
Olivier: Oh D:
Grancel Bracer Guild
Back in Grancel, the other teammates have gathered up as well as Commander Sid. Sid asks the Bracer Guild to help investigate something. Apparently, 9 places in Grancel has received a threatening letter regarding the Mutual Non-aggression Treaty. The team decides to split up to cover more ground.
Your team is now Estelle, Olivier, Zin, and Kloe (since each of them can enter their respective government's building). Head back into the Bracer Guild to accept a new sidequest. Leave and then take the north exit to the Grancel North Block. Here, enter the northwest house and talk to Roki upstairs for a Bamboo Rod.
Threatening Letter
Advice Get the Bamboo Pole to make completing a sidequest in the next chapter easier.
Grancel East Block
The embassies are at the East block, so take the east exit. If you enter the shopping mall in the middle, you can find Renne and Tita, as well as buy a copy of the Liberl Times #4.
The embassies are located to the north and south of the mall. Start with the embassy for the Erebonian Empire at the north. Head upstairs and talk to the ambassador. When you're done, Mueller will follow the team. DO NOT LEAVE THE EMBASSY YET. Exit the room and enter the library at the left side. Talk to the butler to get a copy of Gambler Jack #4. Exit the embassy.
Next, enter the embassy at the south (unless you already completed the sidequest, then skip this paragraph). Again, head upstairs to talk to the ambassador.
Now, go up to Grancel North Block and take the north exit to the castle. Go up the few steps in the middle stairs and enter the maid's room on the right. The maid says that Hilda is in the information room. Go upstairs, take a left, and enter the room at the end of the hall. Hilda is standing at the bookshelf at the bottom of the stairs.
Now go visit the queen. Exit the room and head right, then right again, then up the staircase at the end of the hallway. In the garden, the queen's building is at the top of the stairs, and you have to go up another flight of stairs to the queen's room.
Leave the castle and go to Grancel West Block.
Gambler Jack #4
Butler: This ... this book ... wasn't it banned from Erebonia? Who ... who put this kind of stuff in the bookshelf?
Mueller: ........ (angry)
Butler: That's right, you, take this and go!
Having tea with the queen
Grancel West Block
Head to the southwest corner of Grancel West Block, where you can find the Baral Coffee House (green building in the mini-map). Enter it and sample Curry Rice (完熟咖喱飯) $900 and Sleep Defeater (睡魔剋星) $250. Exit and then go behind the Baral Coffee House to complete a sidequest in the Grancel Sewers Western Block.
To the south of the Baral Coffee House is the Liberl News Service building. Go up to the third floor and talk to Nial to ask him about the threatening letters. Nial believes the letters seem to be a prank, but the team isn't so sure.
Oh well, in any case, return to the Grancel Bracer Guild for a scene. It ends with Estelle asking Agate about his investigation into Renne's parents.
Bracer Guild
Olivier: Estelle, you can finally appreciate adult stuff ♥
Ambushed!
Yes, this is a mandatory battle
Legion 0, Campanella, The Fool
Lots of action going on at night!
Erbe Royal Villa/Grancel
Per the conversation in the Grancel Bracer Guild, Elnan collated the results of everyone's investigation into a report for Estelle to deliver to the miliary in Erbe Royal Villa. Once that is over, head back to Grancel for yet another boring meeting. The meeting is so boring, in fact, that Renne ends up sneaking out when everyone is deep in thought (pay attention during the "..." thought bubble). And then now we have to spend 35 minutes trying to find her again wtf??
Before we start looking for Renne, return to the Bracer Guild to report any sidequest progress to Elnan and to claim another sidequest. We're heading for the sewers again, this time it's the Grancel Sewers East Block.
Tita starts us off with a lead to go to Grancel East Block. Enter the mall to see Renne leave, then go to the Museum to the north. The receptionist says Renne might still be around, so go up to the 3rd floor and then go back down to see her leave ... again!
Note: if you really want, you can go back in the mall to buy a copy of Liberl Times #5.
Since we're at Grancel East Block, this is the perfect opportunity to do the sidequest. Renne can wait a while; serves her right for making us chase her again.
Renne is bored ~~
The Museum receptionist gave us a hint to look for "colourless fish". Go to Grancel South Block and enter the building underneath the Bracer Guild (the Fishermans' HQ). The receptionist then gives another hint, the "spicy, bitter, but delicious store".
Go to Baral Coffee House at Grancel West Block. Now the hint is "a place that sells dessert that disappears". Before leaving, talk to the guy eating at the side for Gambler Jack #5. Now go all the way back to Grancel East Block again.
At the left side of Grancel East Block, in between the North/South block exits, there is a raised area. Go up and talk to the maid that runs the ice cream stand. She gives you the last piece of the puzzle. Don't forget to purchase Ultimate Ice Cream (終極冰淇淋) $1200, Royal Ice Cream (皇家冰淇淋) $350, Sunshine Ice Cream (陽光冰淇淋) $600, and Moonlight Ice Cream (月光冰淇淋) $550
Go north to the airport. On the way there, watch the cutscene. You'll soon be seeing more of that engine soon. At the airport, go up and to the right (to where the airships are) and watch another cutscene.

Olivier sending off Mueller
Mueller: Olivier, when I'm gone, try not to get into any trouble
Olivier: Hmph, have I ever done anything to let you worry, my dear?
Mueller: You've in fact done so many things that I don't want to think about it anymore
Renne finds a letter for Estelle
Not spoiling the contents! :P
Grancel Port
There are two parts to Grancel Port, but sadly, no treasure.
Right before you leave the first map, there is a building on the right side. Enter for a forced battle.

If possible, spread out the party a bit, as Gunner's attacks deal damage in a medium circle. Additionally, the Dual Claws can also use Shadow Weave (影縫) which can cause AT Delay. There's two of them too, so they should be your priority.
After the battle, one of them reveals that the "Captain" (i.e. Amalthea from Trails in the Sky FC) is behind all this. Estelle also discovers that one of the new prototoype engines have been stolen.
Exit the building ane continue to the next half of the port.
Advice The astute reader will notice that the chapter is drawing to an end, which can only mean fighting the chapter boss. Since the wolves aren't too hard, take this opportunity to farm CP for everyone.
Boss Preparation
The upcoming boss battle is going to be really long. There are three parts to it, and you don't get any break to heal up or whatnot. You don't need to fully prepare yourself, but it does make the boss easier.
- If possible, try to have at least one person be able to case La Teara. You'll soon get a temporary character who can cast it, but it's a bit safer if two people can heal (e.g. if one runs out of EP or something)
- Try to have everyone able to cast a non-Fire single-enemy attack spell. You'll need it for the second battle
- To possibly make the first and third battle, consider equipping someone with something like Sleep or Seal. If you're lucky and the minion is asleep/sealed, you have one fewer enemy to worry about
- If you have enough spare ingredients, consider making a few more Bitter Tomato Sandwich. Last thing you want is to see the Critical AT bonus and not have enough CP to use an S-Break.
Head north and after the first building, save, then go all the way to the right for a three-part boss battle. Yes, that's right, back-to-back-to-back boss battle. This is probably going to be Estelle's biggest endurance test in the whole series.

Boss Battle Part 1
Tank!!!!
Tank vs Julia's Artillery
What's that?
Utter defeat :(
Kevin has a secret trick up his sleeve
And it works!
To weave a story from the screenshots. With the power of the Septium Tank, Amalthea intends to blast through the heavy doors of Grancel Palace and force Duke Dunan (who she captured earlier in the chapter) to be king. Midway, she is stopped by Julia Schwarz, leading a small team to stop her.
Julia gives the order to fire, but Amalthea activates her Gospel device which temporarily blocks all Septium power nearby. Julia's artillery is unable to fire, but the Septium Tank is somehow unaffected and pretty much pwns Julia.
Seeing the horribadness of the situation, Kevin tries a last ditch effort and pulls out a staff (one of the sacred treasures). He runs up and hits the tank with the staff, breaking the Gospel device's effect. Julia joins up the team to defeat the boss.
Julia Schwarz
- Starting Stats:
- Level ?, HP 5239, EP 314, CP 110
- STR ?, DEF ?, ATS ?, ADF ?
- SPD ?, DEX ?, AGL ?, MOV ?, RNG ?
- Arts:
- Teara - 20 EP - Heals one ally 3000 HP
- La Teara - 55 EP - Heals everyone in a medium circle by 3000 HP
- Plasma Wave - 80 EP - Wind damage to all enemies in a line, 20% chance of Seal
- Dark Matter - 40 EP - Space damage to one enemy
- 空之領域 - 100 EP - Space damage to all enemies in a medium circle
- Blizzard - 150 EP - Water damage to all enemies, 20% chance of Freeze
- Crafts:
- Roaring Cavalry 咆哮騎兵 (25CP) (Range = RNG) - Dispel one enemy
- Mirage 海市蜃楼 (50CP) (Range: self) - Add Guard effect = nullifies next attack
- Triangle Attack 三角光擊 (S-Craft) - (Range: entire battlefield) - Damage to all enemies in a medium circle
We only get to use Julia for this battle (she becomes a playable character in Trails in the Sky: the 3rd). I really don't have much to say about her. The only purpose she serves is to pretty much give you a 4th teammate to make fighting the boss easier.

Like all bosses, this one is going to take a while. This one might take especially long since: 1. the boss has lots of life, 2. the boss dishes out LOTS OF DAMAGE, 3. the boss has quite strong DEF so physical attacks won't do much, 4. the boss has no elemental weaknesses (so there isn't a particular magic to spam).
The boss has these attacks:
- Regular gun attack - deals 650-750 damage in a medium/large circle
- Regular "run over" attack - deals 1000-1350 damage to everyone who gets run over (short line in front of the tank). Chance of Faint
- Flamethrower attack - deals 700-800 damage in a "short line" in front of the tank
- Max Power (出力全開) - STR up, SPD up
- Septium Cannon (導力加農咆) - deals ~2000-2200 damage in a straight line. There is a very short charge-up time. This is a really dangerous attack
Because most of the boss' attacks can damage lots of characters if they're standing together, it's "obvious" that the strategy is to split everyone up, right?
That might work, but I don't recommend it. I prefer to keep everyone together, especially if you have at least two characters who can cast La Teara since the healing can be done efficiently.
In my playthrough, I didn't follow much of a strategy which is why things took longer than it should. Looking back, this is probably what I would have done:
Keep everyone together for efficient healing. Keep everyone's health up because once the tank starts charging up its Septium Cannon, you most likely won't have enough time to cast a healing spell. Try to use Kevin's S-Break only when absolutely necessary (e.g. everyone is low on health and you can't heal in time).
Since Septium Cannon does so much damage, you can use it to help boost your CP gauge. Just remember to keep your health up if you want to farm Septium Cannon.
Everyone's physical attack won't do much damage (maybe 100-300 damage), so stick with magic (300-700 damage). Since the boss has no elemental weakness, feel free to cast any attack spell except Fire. And definitely choose the spells that targets the enemy and not "the ground" (e.g. some of the line-ranged and circle-ranged spells) because most likely, the boss will move out of the ground target circle.
If you have Scherazard in your team, it's more reason to keep the party members relatively close together so her Heaven's Kiss craft can give AT bonus to everyone.
Have patience, don't rush it, and use S-Breaks to steal as many Critical AT bonuses as possible.
As a bonus, if the boss is running really low on health, consider healing up HP and EP before finishing the boss off. Remember there is a third boss fight immediately afterwards.
With the tank defeated, Amalthea jumps out with a few Special Ops soldiers to have a "fair and square" final battle (how is this at all fair and square?). Without given any time to rest, Estelle is immediately thrown into the third part of the boss fight.

This battle is a bit easier than the tank (since physical attacks do more than 100 damage to Amalthea), but the 3 minions can make this start off a bit difficult (especially if you finished the tank battle in bad shape).
Start off by healing HP and EP. Focus on the Dual Claws first so you don't have to deal with their annoying Shadow Weave skill. The Gunner occasionally uses Machine Gun (機槍速射), but it's just regular damage in a small/medium circle.
At the start, Amalthea is only annoying as her attacks can cause Seal and Poison. Later on, she becomes more dangerout. Her skills include:
- Paralysis Scatter Shot (麻痺彈亂射) - does 700-850 damage to a small/medium circle, chance of Seal
- Poison Scatter Shot (毒彈亂射) - does 500-700 damage to a small/medium circle, chance of Poison
- CP Super Absorb (CP 超吸收) - steals 50 CP from one character
- 亂舞咆 - attacks one character for ~1900-2100 damage
- Mine Trap (爆雷機關)
Amalthea will lay down a few mines in random places. When it's the mine's turn, it will self-destruct and deal ~1900 damage in a medium circle.
This battle is relatively simple. Start by killing off the minions. Steal Critical AT bonuses with S-Breaks and target Amalthea, and stay away from the mines. You should be fine if you keep everyone's HP above 2200, but feel free to use Kevin's S-Break when needed to buy some time to heal.
