"At long last, the battle reaches its climax."

Timeline
Preceeded: Into the Northern Continent

Unlocks: N/A

Objective
You will find yourself inside the Star Megalith, which is a series of small, maze-like rooms. You will need to reach the center of the Megalith where the Egg will be waiting. The paths are wide enough to bypass most of the generic enemies, however many of them have high skill ratings, making them good for learning the strongest Arts in the game prior to the final fight.

From the start, follow the path, then take the first left. Here you will face the Water Lord in a party battle. Use your best Arts to kill it quickly and try not to lose too much LP. After defeating the Water Lord, continue on and you will pass by 4 other Anima Lord (the Edelritters); Beast, Tone, Stone & Tree. You will be given the option to fight them, or pass them by.

These are optional battles, and you can only choose to defeat up to 2 of them (picking Stone & Tree makes the final battle the easiest). If you choose to fight, your reserve character(s) will face them in a Duel. Most have over 20,000 HP so will be tough opponents. Make sure your reserve characters have good equipment and Arts to imrpove your chances of winning.

Alternatively, if you stay alive for 15 turns you will automatically win the fight whether you have injured the Edelritter Lord or not. Simply cast protective spells (Guard Beast, Stone Armor, Regenerate, Reviva) and then choose "Defend" four times as your battle commands, healing when neceassry.

After passing by the 4 optional Lords you will come to the final one; a party battle against Sargon, the Flame Lord. With 41,100 HP the fight will take a while but as long you keep healed it shouldn't be too hard to overcome. Once the Flame Lord is defeated there is nothing standing between you and the final battle.

Before you step on the circular platform make sure to heal up, using any Ark Stones, Life Seeds, Soul Crystals or Anima Crystals you have left and save the game; there is no going back now!

Step on the platform to engage The Egg. The Egg has 3 normal forms, upto 6 Anima forms and a final form. Each form has varying amounts of HP and attacks, and will change every 5 rounds. If you reduce a form's HP to 0 it will be considered defeated and will not appear again; otherwise it will recover 16% HP and 4% LP, WP & SP everytime it morphs. Some forms can inflict status ailments (the Anima Lord forms, hence why you should have killed the Stone and Tree Lords in Duel battles), and all forms can inflict LP damage with 100% accuracy.

Once you defeat all the normal and Anima Lord forms the Egg will morph into it's final form. An LP break is less likely here, but the Egg now uses a percentage-damage attack which you will need your LP to heal as Life Water/Regenerate cannot heal sufficiently. After you defeat the Egg's final form (30,000+ HP) the battle will be over.

The party leaves the Megalith and reflects on recent events, bringing to an end Wil's portion of the game...
