Sadly, I had to separate Aran and Laura due to the Silver Army requiring another unit to assist Mordecai (a mighty fighter, but his combat runs on a timer), and since I wanted one Dawn Brigade member to fight Numida in the next chapter, I decided to bring Laura over.
Chapter 4-P - Chaos Named: Finished.
Mordecai: Acted as the frontline for the main entrance, he started off remaining in human form to draw fire from Laura as the first few foes came in, and then shifted to begin taking down the enemies once the paladins rode in. After the first wave of paladins and reinforcements were taken care of, which involved much hiding in the hedges as he tried to keep shifted long enough to fight and Laura blasted away at the paladins, he ran out into the middle of the field, munching on some Olivi Grass along the way, and drew out a large group of foes to be dealt with. Once those foes were finished, he awaited the final wave in the hedges along with Laura, and the two of them swiftly dispatched the enemies, including Yuma, who fell to Mordecai. Mordecai then ran off to lure out the two Purge bishops, who ran over to him to strike with Ellight tomes, only to get Quickclawed and immediately taken out as a response.
Laura: Provided cover for Mordecai when he was untransformed, and tried to stay out of the way for the most part, due to her fragile defenses leaving her vulnerable to concentrated attacks, especially by the highly mobile paladins. She came close to dying early on when the first wave of paladins came in, but she dodged well enough and was able to take out enough of the paladins that she had room to heal herself. She and Mordecai then headed into the hedges to hold off the remaining foes, and Mordecai soon ran off to draw out a large group of enemies, Laura healing him with a Physic as he ran off. Once those foes fell, Mordecai provoked the boss and his lackeys, and the two of them finished them off, leaving Mordecai to take out the two remaining bishops.
Naesala: Took control of the eastern entrance, he killed all enemies there, then just waited for the main units to finish the chapter.
Yuma: Fought Mordecai, the tiger got the first hit off, Yuma countered with two feeble Brave Sword slashes, and Mordecai then finished him off with his second attack.
Up Next: We join with Ike's group, as they face off against a dangerous mixture of foes in the night.
