Name: The Perfect Storm Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Based on what they learned in the last thread, they aim to reach the islands south of Fiore where the Pirates normally hunt, and nip the problem in the bud. As they sail south on the aerial ship however, the weather gets drastically worse, huge storms and waves high enough to reach even a ship flying above the surface. The higher they go, the more ferocious the winds and the harder to sail and though they attempt to go higher, but the storm clouds are too thick to navigate, and with a very real threat of lightning, the only option is to actually sail along the seas even if the flying ship is not built for naval travel, and struggles significantly. After much hardship, they manage to reach the first island, one of the many hotspots for piracy Others: None Enemies: The Weather Rewards:

Name: Setting Up Ship Rank: A Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Arriving in the southern islands, here they hear that pirates have been struggling with this constant bad weather for a while now, making it hard to sail and scaring away the merchant ships.

Name: Old Fiends Rank: A Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Though the vast majority of pirates sees women on board as a bad omen, this particular crew has several, including the helmswoman. The travel proves somewhat easier with a proper ship to sail on. Living with the pirate crew, Alisa and Sofia learn about what's been happening around here, rumours about a legendary Valerican Captain in these seas, an adventurer said to be one of the only few known to have sailed around the world. Far more worryingly, there's been rumours of strange, demonic creatures propping up, and some seamen who've been posessed/corrupted/contracted with them. Before the journey is over, Sofia and Alisa get to see these creatures with their own eyes, flying demons not unlike those they saw during the invasions, the kind that Alisa grew all too familiar with.

Name: Family Reunion Rank: A Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Running into a rather surprising figure in the form of Sofia's Uncle Nick, they learn that the demons are part of a full on invasion attempt on the South seas. Ever adventurous, Uncle Nick had stuck around when he heard of the turmoil, however, he knows next to nothing about demons and demon hunting, so he's been biding his time and learning more before making a move, trying to shelter and shield the locals. The big trade hub has an unusually high concentration of daemon marauders , prompting Alisa and Sofia to put their power to good use to challenge the demons who strut around like they own the place, untouchable for most humans. However, they're not too keen to talk, and even those that do seem to know awfully little, though they mention a Demon Lord and a lengthy ritual that's been going on for a while, to summon something massive. A demon god? Others:

Name: A Face from the Past Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary:One of the demons who shows up here being Liv from Alisa's last storyline, she is living the high life as yet another devilish rogue, though she still remembering the favour she owes Alisa for freeing her, and agrees to help out. With personal experience with Demon Lords and the Abyss, Liv explains how the goal isn't an invasion of abyssal demons, but rather if a portal between dimensions remains open long enough, this could enable beings from the void between dimensions to find their way through. Liv doesn't know how the portal seemed to be reopened, but knows that no demon lord has the power to do so. She speculates that a particularly powerful demon lord must have found some artifact that would enable them to open a portal, thus, if they can find and retrieve the artifact holding the portal open, it should collapse. Meanwhile, a bunch of loyalist demons attack, furious at one of their own for spilling the plan to humans. The party dispatches the demons and that way obtain the name of their enemy, Furtur, Demon Prince of storms. As the name suggests, they should find him in the eye of the storm, or, at least, the portal closest to it. Others:

Name: Wake of Destruction Rank: A Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Sailing to the portal revealed by the demons with the expert assistance of Uncle Nick, they come upon an island infested by demons, which could prove problematic. His crew, however, has seen many battles and seas as unforgiving as these, and they thin down the horde of demons to make a path for Sofia and Alisa, who move on ahead. Others:

Name: The Eye of the Storm Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Alisa and Sofia disembark on the island, following the trail of Mana until they come face to face with Furtur, Demon Prince of Storms. The demon is a smug, rude and disrespectful. Unlike the regal prince of crystal, he's aggressive and quick to anger, but also cerebral in combat. He's clearly fought many battles, instead of being cooped up in his palace. However, he's roughly as strong as Adamel, demon prince of crystal, who Alisa beat years ago. With Sofia at her side and their combined light magics, they easily push the demon back. During battle, he draws a Katana that radiates tremendous magic power, rivalling even the demon himself, helping them understand how this is the artifact used to open the portal. Others: N/A Enemies:

Name: Stormbreaker Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Continuing battle, the Katana proves a challenge to defeat, with the ability to cut anything, even what seems like the very fabric of space. Alisa and Sofia beat the demon, and Alisa claims the sword. As she grips the hilt, she feels the seething essence of a demon sealed within it, calling out to her... "Power... Give me more power...!" Taking on the remaining horde of demons, Alisa learns the name of the sword, Yamato, and ironically understands how the demon within spent his life hunting after his own kind to benefit himself, making it a Demonic sword, which was crafted to kill demons. Taking posession of the blade helps Alisa and Sofia wipe out the demons. Alisa realizes the constant whispering in her head makes it hard to focusing on her own natural magic, making its use more difficult and forcing her to rely on the sword first and foremost.

Name: Deep Dive Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary: Even after killing the demon prince, however, the storm and the number of demons around them doesn't seem any close to ebbing. Alisa realizes that, though it may have been used to open the portal, Yamato isn't keeping it open and that they'll probably need to use it to cut apart the portal. Spotting a large whirlpool near the island, circled by demons, they speculate the portal could be underwater, promoting them to use Sofia's water magic, the two Pegasi expose the portal as Alisa moves to slash it apart.

Name: Lovecraft Would Love This Rank: S Type: Good Participants:
Summary: As they get close to the end though, a massive hand pushes through the portal, forcing it wider as the entitiy climbs out. They realize they're standing in front of Dark God Malum, and their only hope is to hold back the god with whatever magic they have, push it back long enough for Alisa to finish closing the portal. In the midst of battle, Alisa and Sofia grievously wound the god, forcing it to reel back while ALisa closes the portal, cutting off the god's arm in the process.

Name: Big Damn Heroes Rank: A Type: Good Participants:
Summary: The act of closing the portal maybe makes the sea chaotic and the girls are exhausted, resulting a whirlpool that they struggle to escape. Trying with whatever they have left to escape with no avail, their low mana reserves and exhaustion after such an epic chain of battles mean both struggle, and are barely able to overcome the force dragging them down. Luckily for them, Uncle Nick and Liv arrive to rescue them, showing up with their ship and pulling them free, revealing how proud they are of both of them. Others:
