Meant to mention this a good hour or so ago but I got distracted by holiday stuff. Wrote the next chapter of Dawn of Courage today ("The Return of the Chaos Archer"). A bit stop-and-go at times but I got it done.
Anyway, the party is heading to its next Undead Base. The base is lead by General Tearror, a pretty nasty customer even for the Undead Army troops in Gem Ridge Kingdom. Nova wants to give his new Shaman Magic Bracelet a go since he hasn't used the Chaos Archer form since he first got it before giving up his previous Shaman Magic Bracelet to Elizabetta. Soon, however, Dominic appears, threatening the party, only to be put to sleep by the roulette effect of Elizabetta's Moth Dust ability. The party makes it to the Undead Base and decides to let Nova handle it to see if he can still use the Chaos Archer form, though the rest of the party will be on standby in case things get out of hand. The party confronts General Tearror and his large Undead Army, only for Dominic to get in the way. Nova transforms into the Chaos Archer and proceeds to literally stomp out General Tearror before blasting the Undead Soldiers to atoms. Dominic, who was his usual chew toy self during the fight, tries to confront Nova, only for the Shamanized Nova to crumple him into a ball and blast him with another Chaos Arrow, seemingly destroying him, though the party harbors doubts. Nova transforms back, exhausted, as the form still drains his energy, though Van gives him an Energy Potion as a quick pick-me-up, before they raid the base and destroy it. They move on to the nearest magical campsite so Nova can rest for a bit. The next chapter, "Superior Sister Showdown", features Elizabetta confronting the source of her misery: her bully of an older sister.
