The Symphonia Ep.3 Scenario: The Imperial Capitial, Illisia

The Symphonia Episode 3 scenario was added in v28.08.63. This guide is based on USA game client (v28.50.39). Check Patch Notes for later changes (if any).


Synopsis :
Dietrich receives "Gold Wolf" alert, signifying a threat to the emperor. Bethel however receives different orders, leading to a fight between Evora and Patrician soldiers in the streets. Forcing your way through Bethel and Royal Road, you learn that someone opened a black door to move into Imperium Glory, possibly to incapacitate the emperor. In Illisia, you find a peaceful city as if nothing has happened.

The palace guard turns out to be Labid in disguise. After defeating him, Orden shows up to assign Dorr to the first floor while Leona flirts with him. Queen Hamaan makes some vague prophecy about the end of the world, while you use the power of the stars to awake the palace guard, who reveals that the Flame of Emperor, a rune spell made by Duke Mariliana Parma who founded Illier, is missing. The Patrician captain refuses to let you use the warp gate into Imperium Rex since only the archon and the imperial family are allowed to use it. You find another way by going through the culverts in Imperium Arma with the archon's insignia acquired from the rogue guild.

Fighting your way through brainwashed soldiers, you capture Joshua who manages to resist the mind control. Orden asks for the whereabouts of Princess Rubiana and instructs Violante to find her and the symbol of the titan. You endanger the local population of demons to earn Joshua's trust. Then, you seize control of the command room from Dorr the Dragon Warlord who doesn't look like a dragon. Joshua tells him to stop questioning her like Lorraine does.

Orden shows up and tells Dorr to join Kranus. Chief of Staff Mikhail says everyone must cooperate to recapture Imperium Rex and Imperium Glory. Leona takes a break while Joshua cracks the code of the rune spells. Dietrich warns you about Valeron's weapons and some mystery concerning the lost gold wolf.
