In order to escape Alia's assassins, Lillik and co. split into three groups: Soro, Soariro, and Ssciisscoiyaa were captured; Lillik, Lera, Kidd, Saibo, and Mikk were teleported outside of the Green Chapel by Saibo and Cill (who was brought back to life-- and forced to become a Tekkar-Nantuu-- by the spontaneous energies released when the Black Chapel was destroyed, along with Mikk and a large number of irreparably-deceased people); Mikkiem, Kamko, Nennil, Garo, and Nyn were brought into the Green Chapel by Nirra.
Because Mikkiem mistakenly entered the Chapel at 12:00
Serpent time instead of Wolven time (12:00 ST would be around 6ish WT), you missed the safe entry zone and had to solve the puzzle in order to leave the Chapel. Nennil was seen as a threat by the demon and knocked out. Garo bitched and moaned the entire time, Nyn started yelling at him, and Mikkiem and Kamko were the only ones who actually did anything. In the end, Mikkiem ended up fighting Nirra, and the two of them got sucked into the DI while the other four escaped.
Meanwhile, Lillik appeared on the other side of the Chapel from the kids. Since Kidd knew where they were, he figured that Lillik would be able to meet them at the house and led Saibo and Lera back to Lillik's house. Lillik starts to freak out, and since she can only see Cill (who Lillik does not recognize), Lillik assumes that she did something with the kids and starts to beat up the Nantuu. After smacking her around for quite some time, Lillik decides to drag her down the mountain by her hair. This becomes cumbersome (I guess-- I REALLY don't know why you did this), so Lillik decides to chop her hair off. Now that she can see her face, Lillik recognizes Cill and waits for her to wake up. Cill gets pissed, turns Tekkar, and throws a giant, explosive hissy fit. Afterward, she teleports you to where the kids are and tries to kill Saibo.
After Nyn, Garo, and Nennil get out of the Chapel, you decide that the best course of action would be to hold Nennil hostage (you decide she's a traitor) and go to Falcon to rescue Soro and co. Nyn stays behind, and says that she'll contact you via crystal ball when Mikkiem gets out. There, you meet Renku, who invites you to his hideaway. Renku leaves shortly, telling Lillik the password. Lillik decides to trap Lera and co. in the hideout, splitting the party. Lillik takes her half of the party and checks them into an inn, where she meets Kamnai and Tirrin. Saibo runs off to go be a crazy person, and Lillik lets her because she's creepy.
Eager to repay you for saving Kamnai's life, the twosome inform you that they've found three things of yours while pillaging Alia's palace, but they can only bring back one. The first is the most useful, but hard to get. The second is slightly useful, but the easiest to get. The third is useless, and the hardest to get, but getting it has a chance of bringing you the other two.
Lillik chooses the third. It turns out that the three things were actually Soariro, Soro, and Ssciisscoiyaa (respectively). Since Ssciisscoiyaa is three years old and was already half-dead from when Gaiden got to her earlier, Lillik gets pissed and asks why they didn't bring her Soro or Soariro. They shrug, and say that she didn't want them. However, now that Alia no longer has Ssciisscoiyaa, Soro and Soariro no longer have any reason not to kick their asses and bust out of there.
In Lera's party, everyone's pissed that they're trapped in a ******** cave. Except Kamko, she's pretty chill. Garo starts blaming everything on everyone else, and Nennil loses her temper. Garo starts shoving her around, saying that it was all her fault in the first place for reasons he refuses to identify. Mikk gets really ******** pissed. Nennil warns him that she's a pacifist, but she'd be willing to ignore that if he kept pushing her. Being that Nennil is a good half-foot shorter than him (and much older), Garo isn't intimidated, and keeps going. Nennil takes out her spellcasting kit and casts Lightning on him repeatedly, continuing after he is unconscious.
After Garo wakes up, he discovers that he has amnesia. Lera starts manipulating the s**t out of him. Nennil figures out the password to the door, but it's raining too hard outside to leave. Nennil comments on the strange weather, saying that it shouldn't be bringing down water sprytes for another eight months. Lera's party would be able to make it to Nennil's house if she casted a Barrier spell the entire way there to fend off the sprytes, but you don't trust Nennil. At the same time, you don't want to stay in the ******** cave.
