Paradox/Collaboration Scenario "The Land of Night and the Heroes of the Seven Worlds"

This guild will cover the collab that was added in Paradox 2.30. As it has not been fully translated, this guide will be updated as new information is translated.

Requirements
In order to start the collab you need to have done a few sidequests. These are: Only after doing all these will you be allowed to start.
 * Granduer's sidequest (Saki)
 * Yamatai Village's sidequest (Four Shrines)
 * Succubus Village's sidequest (Civil War)
 * Recruit Promestein

Chapter 0
To begin, the White Rabbit has shown up in the Main Hall of the Pocket Castle. She's in a panic, and upon taking to her a few warnings pop up. If you haven't done the previously mentioned quests, it'll stop you right there, otherwise it will explain what you are getting into: Then, you're given a choice to start or not start the collab. Once you hit yes, you won't be controlling Luka quite some time, so be prepared. You might want to switch to Normal difficulty as well, for reasons that will soon be apparent.
 * There are no H-Scenes while controlling the party without Luka in it, you can change the difficulty and respawn only.
 * All items and equipment in your inventory are moved to storage. However, there is a move all option that was added that makes adding all those items back much easier.
 * Gear from the Labyrinth of Chaos other than white named gear will be unequipped and locked for the duration of the collab.
 * After finishing a chapter, you will keep any items you have obtained, but weapons and armors are moved into storage.

The White Rabbit explains that while she was going to another world in order to guide the next monster lord, she went to the wrong world address and someone came though the gate. This person began to corrode the space around them, but she was not worried about it and unleashed a powerful attack to send them back. However, they were unharmed and mocked her, saying that she can't attack a Nightmare like that, and counterattacked with pleasure. Again, she was not worried, she was immune to pleasure! However, for some reason the attack was able to pierce White Rabbit's defenses. As a result, she was captured and the person made use of her powers. After explaining that, the White Rabbit continues and names the unknown person as "The Queen of Dreams". The Queen of Dreams then used her power to open up gates to other worlds and bring over anyone who answered her call, to help her expand her "Land of Night". Among them, there would be enemies similar to The Queen of Dreams known as Nightmares. They're completely immune to all non-pleasure damage and pierce Pleasure Immunity and the like, so you need to keep that in mind. Finally, The Queen of Dreams appeared in the Lima Village Ruins, but her current location is unknown. With nothing to go off of, the party lets the various kings and queens go back to their counties and start looking. As this part ends, the White Rabbit mentions that pulling enemies from another world would have triggered an equal reaction, heroes from another world might have come as well...

Chapter 1
Suddenly, we are at Scenic Hill, a portal appears, and our first group of heroes appear: Lauratt and Rigeo. They're confused, and while looking around they're attacked by a lone Succubus A. If you're on Paradox Difficulty, it's almost a sure loss. Lauratt and Rigeo start off at level 50 and both have the Unemployed job and basic races (Human and Imp). The succubus will usually kill Lauratt in a single hit, then two hit kill Rigeo. This fight is also unavoidable. Anyway, after defeating the succubus explore around and open all chests you find. As your entire inventory is gone, you'll need all the help you can get. Make your way down the mountain, then exit and head to Lady's Village. Once you enter you'll be thrown into a fight against Executioner after a brief talk. This fight shouldn't be too hard unless you're on a higher difficulty, as its just a DPS race. Once you "win", she powers up and prepares to unleash her full power. While this is happening, Ogretooth notices a boy coming out of the bar and leaps to suck him dry, but is blow away by Magatsu! The trio then retreats, despite Executioner's protesting. Afterwards, the White Rabbit appears and explains what is happening to the group. This ends Chapter 1.

Chapter 2
A close up of an face, and then you find yourself controlling Kazuya, our next protagonist. He has woken up in a bed in a strange place, but its nothing new to him. Check the glittering spots one by one to hear his thoughts on the world. One of them is his weapon, so be sure to pick it up and equip it. After exiting the room, a female voice speaks directly into Kazuya's mind, declaring that everyone is going to be her food, but if they escape the area, they're free to go. Kazuya focuses on the "everyone" part and concludes that there are civilians in need of protecting. After walking a bit to the right, a Lampas appears. It's not the one that Kazuya knows, and it wants to eat him up. If you get caught by one, you'll go into a battle, so try to avoid them. Run past the Lampas to find another one, and another, and then escape down the stairs. You'll spot a monk running away. Follow after him, and after a few rooms, Kazuya will comment on how he's already been here before. In that room (Third room with a roaming Lampas), return the way you came to exit the loop. Beyond lies an ambush! Kazuya then uses magic to set the Lampas on fire, then quenches the flames with water. Thankful, she lets Kazuya passes... and also forces herself into the party. She recognizes Kazuya after he gives his name, and provides quite a bit of backstory.

Leave to the right and encounter a group of 4 Lampas. You can fight them, or despawn them by exiting to the left and returning. There's a real ambush once you head south, so be prepared to fight or flee. You'll encounter that monk again, so chase after him after defeating the two Lampas he left behind. You'll just barely miss him, and encounter a new enemy, Fox Demon. They're fast and use Beast skills, but are weak to pleasure as one might expect. Better be prepared because right afterwards you'll have to fight a few fights in quick succession. Beating them all up, the monk appears, and the Foxes cry out for him to run, for the demon in human skin will come after him next! Said "demon" Kazuya is not happy at this and tries to convince the monk otherwise, but he runs off. To clean up this misunderstanding, Kazuya chases after him. After another close escape, finally the monk is trapped by a wall of Foxes. Of course, you appear and beat them up, and clear up the misunderstanding. The monk, Hakunen, then joins the party. He says he isn't good at fighting, then breaks a boulder with his fists. Anyway, you'll encounter a Fox Statue, which is a barrier that disappears once you interact with it from the back. Keep going, and eventually you'll find yourself in another area that loops if you take the wrong path. The correct path is right right right up down. However, you might need to talk to the fox at the start or take the wrong path a few times before it will allow you to exit.

Remove the Fox Statue in the way, then head upwards for a cutscene. You'll find a youth named Tony, frightened. Kazuya calms him down, but then Myusca appears and in one swift move, consumes the life of Tony. Kazuya yells out to run, and you should, since no matter how strong you are, if Myusca touches you, its gameover. Keep running and running, then exit to the right. You'll enter a makeshift rest area, in which Myusca then bursts in and sucks dry 5 people after knocking the party back, then leaves as she is full for now. To the right, three Foxes will appear, talk to them and the middle one, now called Dream Fox, will join the party. Once you leave to the right, you'll spot a familiar looking book. It's a Job Change book, and after touching it, the entire party is leveled up in various areas. If you have the the advanced job change item, you can also put the party in advanced jobs. Keep exploring and you'll encounter the first shop of the collab. The Fox sells basic items, and as you'll keep them between chapters it might be best to get as many phoenix tails as you can. Soon after, there's another shop, this time for some decent weapons and armors. Get what you need, then depart. As you find some stairs, the White Rabbit appears and again tells the party what is happening. Lord of Dreams appeared, Heroes are summoned, go and save the world!

Descend the stairs, and prepare for a proper boss fight! It's Myusca, of course. As a succubus, she has lots of Pleasure and Wind based attacks, so Dream Fox will be extra squishy and likely to die quickly. So, use Hakunen's Charms to try and Stun or Silence her, the charms are 100%, but Myusca only has a 25% of being affected. Or, beat her down with Kazuya's Gun skills. As expected, defeating her does nothing, the heroes have only scratched her elbow. But suddenly, she's distracted by the Proof of Collaboration on her hand which is burning her, and the party escapes... right into two other succubi. So chapter 2 ends...

Chapter 3
[Translation in progress] Suddenly, we are in control of Lest, who is awakened by a dancer named Tarsa. Some conversation is said, and then you are free to explore the area. Upon heading to the right, a Mermaid attacks the group. Afterwards, there is only one path, which is downwards and to the left. From there, you'll head upwards and discover a cave! Inside, the White Rabbit appears and presumably explains the circumstances to Lest and Tarsa. More exploring later, you'll encounter two men, who upon being talked to will start a cutscene. Then, a sparkling area will be left behind that you can interact with to heal. Be sure to talk to the priest in order to gain jobs and races for both Lest and Tarsa. At the exit to the cave a devil fighter will be blocking it. As expected, talking to her with result in a fight. Beat them up and then leave, Tarsa will prevent you from going anywhere but rightwards over the bridge to Grand Noah. As you cross, in a beam of light Lyla and Bell who are from Lest's world, appear in front of the party. It's a boss fight! Seeing that they cannot defeat Lest and Tarsa, the two retreat, and you are free to enter Grand Noah. As Lest stands before the Grand Noah Queen, there's an uneasy atmosphere... And once again in a beam of light Musette appears behind the Queen. Than, Lyla and Bell also reappear. Seeing the three, Lest prepares to engage in combat, but Tarsa suddenly turns into a succubus and ambushes Lest, who is powerless to resist her charms... And on that, Chapter 3 ends.

Chapter 4
We begin this chapter rather differently from the previous 3, as we are treated to a conversation between Ogretooth, Executioner, and Mysteltainn as they fly over some unknown area. They're talking about which village to suck dry next when suddenly, Rovissa appears out of nowhere and blasts Ogretooth with magic, forcing her down to earth! The two others chase after her, while Orgetooth lands and attempts to fight back. Lars stands between Rovissa and Orgetooth and blocks the hit. Meanwhile, the other two begin to suck the villagers dry. As the two sides prepare to clash, we get a flashback to how Lars and Rovissa got to this point...

The two had gone into a small village west of Yamatai in search of the elder there for his request, and while doing so, met with a strange man near the bridge. Their name was Novissa, and he was looking for a person named Tarsa. Rovissa replies that they haven't seen a person by that name, and Novissa leaves after politely declining the offer to fight together. Entering the elder's home, it seemed that there was already another guest meeting, so the two of them wait and listen in. That person was a mysterious Taoist who called herself Daimyokai, who was wondering if the elder couldn't sense the "earth's pulse". Asking for a reward, and after mentioning that she wanted to go back to her world, she leaves. Of course, the two catch that, and keep that in mind as the elder calls for them next. With Daimyokai's words in mind about the "earth's pulse", Rovissa deduces it was the flow of magic and as a mage, she could track it. Doing so, she predicts the next attack location: Izumo Village, and tells the elder that she'll set up an ambush there. And so we return to the present...

As expected, it's a boss fight against Ogretooth. Same as the fight with Executioner, just beat her up with your skills and stay healthy. Again, "beating" her does nothing, she powers up and is raring to fight again! But Mysteltainn stops her, and instead just drains everyone in the village in a blink of an eye with chains. With their job finished, the three begin to depart... but of course Lars and Rovissa won't let them! However, in a turn of events, the village girls that were drained begin to stand back up, one by one... they were Nightmares now. The two carefully knock them out, but more come, than a third wave... Both Lars and Rovissa sound the retreat, but begin to get surrounded by the transformed girls. But as the girls walk over the bridge, the ground beneath them lights up! They become snared and unable to act. Daimyokai reappears! Her traps immobilize another group of succubi, and that appeared to be the rest of them. As Rovissa and Daimyokai start to fight, the White Rabbit appears! Right into a binding seal. She's fine, of course, and explains everything to the group. Finally, we learn the true name of the Queen of Dreams: Est.

Since Daimyokai wasn't able to capture the trio, she won't get the reward from the elder, and thus joins the party. The next goal is to talk to everyone in the ruined village to get some information. The person you are seeking is the messenger from Grand Noah, who proclaims that their kingdom was usurped by a white demon. Hearing that, the group decides that the other heroes would also be heading towards Grand Noah, and they should go as well. After leaving the village, head south to Yamatai Cave. Note trying to enter Yamatai Village, the mountain, or Orochi's Cave will be met with failure. The cave itself is nothing new, just charge forth while looting the various treasure chests along the way. Once you exit, head westward towards Grand Noah and enter. Once you do, the scene changes to Luka, Sonya and either Alice or Ilias having just entered Izumo Village and witnessing the horror within. As they talk about it, Mephisto interrupts with news that Fiona has been taken over by succubi, and a powerful barrier is sealing the village. As Luka and party head off to investigate, chapter 4 ends...

Chapter 5
We return to Lauratt, Rigeo, and Magatsu as they ponder where to go next. After hearing of Succubus Village, the party decides to head over there in hopes that they'll get some information about why Lauratt's runes weren't working. Entering the village, the party asks the locals about any famous people in the area, to which they reply that the mayor would be able to help. Head upwards to the mayor's home and enter, then find Succubus sitting at a table. A short talk later, Witch appears and studies Lauratt's runes, and thinks she can fix them with a few days of work. Time flies by, and Witch gets the fire rune working and starts work on the ice rune. In the meanwhile, she tells Lauratt to relax a bit and check out what Rigeo and Magatsu have been doing. Magatsu is in the pub as expected, while Rigeo is cornered by Saki, a Kunoichi Succubus, and Magical Mari-chan, each of which are offering to teach her a unique skill set. Saki will teach her Pleasure Dance, the Kunoichi will teach her Shinobi Initiative and Ninja Art:Reverberation, and Mari will teach her Love☆Meteor and Magical☆Rigeo. Don't worry about losing access to the other two you don't pick though, as after the collab the Pocket Castle Board will have sidequests for them. Or, you can redo the collab again. Anyway, afterwards return to Witch. She'll finish work on the runes, and Lauratt will max out Priest and Mage. Witch will then recommend that he form a contract with Salamander at Gold Volcano in order to get stronger, and the party will agree. Head there after changing jobs and buying new equipment, you'll need it. Once you meet Salamander, she'll explain that her physical body is not present at the moment, so they're dealing with her spiritual self. Hearing of the party's request, she wants a show of strength. As far as I can tell, the fight is the same as the main story with different stats. I find using Magatsu's Dragon-Gorged Flood Taoism skill as an excellent way to deal damage as she's weak to Water. No matter the method, after defeating her she infuses the runes with her power, then vanishes to her physical body. As the party prepares to leave, a mysterious voice calls out... It's Fulbeua Sina Lestani, a Nightmare that Lauratt and Rigeo are well acquittanced with. She explains a few things as thanks for something that Lauratt does not recall doing, among which is that her domain, the Demonic Chateau will appear soon in Grand Noah! As it is part of the dream world, once it is summoned the world will fall into unending dreams of pleasure... With that, she takes her leave, and chapter 5 ends.

Chapter 6
We return to Kazuya and party as they've just escaped from Myusca right into two other Succubi's hands. Luckily, the two don't attack right away, and instead mention that they should know the rules by now: escape the town or perish, and then take their leave. There's only one path, so follow it and enter into another cutscene of two people being attacked by someone that Kazuya knows: Mukuro. However, they only look like her, they don't recognize Kazuya. Rescue the two people, then continue onward to discover a job change book and a rest point. Soon afterwards there'll be a item shop in case you need it. A few rooms later, you'll encounter Nemea as she sucks dry a young boy. A chase sequence will begin, so run away with all your might until you make it outside. Nothing exciting happens until you find and then descend down a ladder, where Vinum awaits. However, she's busy reading, and lets the party off. Make any noise and you die, so avoid the loose paper on the ground, ignore the chest (it has a chicken inside), step on the far end of the piano, and read the note instead of going through the door (it is squeaky) and you'll finally make it out alive.

Another job change book and bed await here, so prepare yourself. In the next room, you'll encounter Kagetsumugi surrounded by Mukuro dolls. She's the one who has been making them. Kazuya is quite angry, and Kagetsumugi notices, and sends out a Mukuro doll that was different from the others. After saying her true name, Kazuya is convinced that the Mukuro in front of him is the one he knows, but Mukuro herself is unstable and attacks the party. She's much much stronger than the other Mukuro's, but otherwise she appears to have the same attacks and weaknesses. However, she does have the Time Stop skill, so if you're unlucky she could wipe out the front row with two turns in a row. Anyway, she comes back to her senses after being beaten down. While you might expect Kagetsumugi to intervene, she doesn't and instead is willing to give her to the party. As she begins to leave, Kazuya asks her a question, if she was a puppeteer or a puppet. Kagetsumugi... doesn't take being called a puppet lightly to say the least, but leaves without fighting the party.

A bit of travel later, Vinum has apparently finished her book and is prepared to chase the party around. You know the drill, run away! But this time, Nemea awaits at the exit. It's a boss fight! As another Succubus, Nemea is weak to earth and does lots of pleasure damage. At this point you should be able to defeat her without much trouble unless you're on a harder difficulty. But alas, winning does nothing. The party begins to retreat, but Vinum appears from behind, then Myusca. It seems the party is out of luck... As Nemea steps in to claim Hakunen as her prize, a club strikes her in the face! It's Magatsu! And backing her up is of course Lauratt and Rigeo. While Myusca and Nemea are raring to fight, Vinum calls them back for a retreat. While doing so, we discover why Myusca had the Proof of Collaboration: Upon being teleported, she discovered a human next to her, whom she sucked dry, and then the crest appeared on her hand. On that note, the three leave. The two parties introduce themselves to the other, then join together. Their next goal? Grand Noah! With that, chapter 6 ends...

Chapter 7
We return to Lest, who is now stuck in a small prison cell. There seems to be no escape... Of course you wouldn't be fooled by that, there are after all sparking spots to investigate. In the barrel, a small diary which belonged a person named Whitestone is discovered. The self proclaimed "jailbreak expert" notes that he has been digging with a spoon out a wall for a while, and writes about how the Grand Noah Queen has apparently gone mad. Nearly done with the wall, he comes up with a second plan just in case, and escapes that way, but notes that if someone needs to, they have his permission to use it. The pot and jail door have nothing to give, so poke around the left side and Lest will break though into the storage room and get back his stuff. Now, onwards! But carefully, Lest is sure he can take on the guards (the guards being Automata Girls.) but is worried that noise from the fight will attract more guards. Just pass though without touching them, and you'll be alright. Or not, since the next room has about six or so waiting in ambush. But suddenly, from behind them...! A greatsword begins to cut down the guards, it's Novissa! He is looking for Tarsa, and joins the party afterward the two clean up the guards.

So now, where to? Perhaps the prisoners will know more? The upper path is a dead end, but head left than up for the person that you need. From them, we learn that Tarsa was taken deeper, so downwards we will go. But the door is locked, and only the prison warden has the key. She's on the other path to the left, past the job change book and then down. The warden is a Four Tailed Samurai, and after a brief fight she surrenders and hands over the key. She explains that this was a good time to quit, since the Queen has gone mad. With key in hand, head down to the next basement...

The rightward path is a dead end with a chest, once you get it the rightmost prisoner coughs up some news on where Tarsa has been. She's been taken even deeper down, to the third basement... There's no door blocking the entrance to the third basement, so head on down once you've explored the area.

This area has quite a few paths that connect back to each other, but they all lead to the centermost room. Defeat the Succubus Monk who is guarding the way, then head inside where Tarsa awaits... in her succubus form. She's been busy, as evidenced by the surrounding bodies. To bring her back to her senses, Novissa takes up his greatsword. Boss fight time! Again. Succubus boss. No further words needed. But the real fight has yet to begin. As Tarsa recovers, the mastermind, Musette, appears! She's not an angel, but a "winged demon" but it's almost the same thing. Defeat her, and she stumbles back. However, with the power that Tarsa had already gathered, she uses it to summon the Demonic Castle Chateau des Romances. With it, the Nightmares that dwell within come forth and attack the party. There are too many, they start to close in... Suddenly, Rovissa appears, then Daimyokai and Lars. The two joins forces as the scene changes to Luka and co reaching Fiona, too late. More news reaches them, that of the Grand Noah palace becoming a black ominous castle. The group heads off as this chapter ends...

Chapter 8
And what a sight the castle is! We are treated to a picture of it as Kazuya and party approach. There's not much time left, and also no more options other than to charge inside and see what to do from there. You're greeted by Nightmare (Red)s as you enter, and you'll quickly discover whom should be on the frontlines and who will be sitting out for a while. After all, the entire castle is full of these Nightmares, and anyone without pleasure attacks will be a meat shield at best. Continue down the path and enter the main hall. The party will sense the presence of Fulbeua on the second floor. As there isn't much else to go off of, head there. But that would be too easy. There's a barrier in front of the stairs preventing access. But the device to turn it on and off is somewhere on this floor. Where? Well ask around. Eventually, in what appears to be a kitchen, you'll find a Nightmare who is willing to answer for a small fee of some energy from the three men in the party. It doesn't matter who you choose, they'll take a bit of damage but that's it. She'll tell you to go the room with the dancing Nightmare in it. Talk to the dancing Nightmare to confirm that yes, the cracked wall is where the canceling device is. Behind lies... a Nightmare who had the same idea and was about to cancel the barrier. Oh well. Defeat her and open the chest to cancel the barrier, then head upstairs.

As expected, Fulbeua is there, waiting for the heroes. As expected, she will not listen without a fight, so a fight is what she'll get. She's the first Nightmare boss you'll fight, but apart from that she's just a normal Succubus. As the norm with this fights, she comes out of it without much issue and actually plans on telling the heroes where the gate is. But Musette appears and the two begin to argue. Sensing a chance, the party escapes! In the next room over, the party catches their breath as they talk about what to do from here. As the plan to fall back and regroup is formed, a very familiar face appears. It's Myusca! And soon after the other two warp in! It's another escape game, but this one is more rail roaded than the others. You'll manage to escape to the basement once all is said and done. And as soon as you explore a bit to the left, Vinum shows up bored of the chase. Time for the fight against her! She's not a Nightmare of course, so you can use non Pleasure attacks on her. One Succubus boss fight later... She's warmed up. And with her, Myusca and Nemea show up. Again, all hope is lost as the three close in. Only to be interrupted by Alice/Ilias, Sonya and Nuruko, and Luka! On this note, chapter 8 ends.

Chapter 9
We return to Lest and party fighting off the hoards of Nightmares. It's a three wave battle, and after the dust settles you're allowed to explore the castle.
