Prologue, Mission 2: Dark Mercia's Resolve

Map 2 (Prologue, Mission 2) is a 4x6 small map in TinyGroove. Its S-rank can be achieved if completed in < 10 days. The mission introduces Elodie to the campaign, although she is not recruit-able in this mission.

Mission Background
The player acquires Artefact 'C', the Wellspring Whetstone in this mission by first defeating Elodie and then her informing you of its location, and having the player stand on the well to retrieve the artefact before routing the opponent. Thus, it is possible to miss this Artefact, but very unlikely for most players. Once Elodie is recruited to the player's party in the next mission, Artefact 'C' from this mission will provide the equivalent of an extra life when Dark Mercia falls in Battle, by bringing Elodie into the battle on maps with a Stronghold present.

Helpful Tips
The map contains two treasure chests, one in a cave at the top of the map, and another on a mountaintop in the bottom right corner, both of which provide additional funds if visited. Otherwise, the small map requires the player to use a limited set of resources to abate Elodie's advances, making archers more difficult to recruit. In Version 6, TinyGroove added a dialogue box and arrows to serve as a tutorial to scavenging chests and other locations on maps.

All of this information was gleaned from the in-game spoilers unlocked in the Achievement Castle by completing at least 20% of the game and destroying the red gates comprising the 'Campaign Completion Counter'.

A3: Requiem's Reverb
Conditions: Win the map by routing Elodie (destroying all enemy units and structures).
