The only way out is through.

Heading into a new region, Ike seeks the other half of a skill so powerful it was split in half to keep it out of undeserving hands. But it’s no easy feat to obtain a skill so powerful. Its other half has been buried, sunk at the other end of a trial that no one has cleared for hundreds of years. To obtain this skill, Ike will need more than his sword and skills. He’ll need his wits, his decorum, and all his friends to make it to the end of the grueling trial.

And yet, the deeper he gets into the trial, the more he begins to wonder: is there more to this story than merely a sundered skill? More to this trial than simply its rewards? In this region unconquered by his mortal enemy, where puppets should have never been able to reach, Ike finds himself pulling at a familiar set of strings. Only by clearing the trial will the truth come to light.

Succeed, and obtain a new skill and the answers he’s been searching for. Fail, and die. Refusing to back down, Ike charges headlong into this new trial!
