What defines this World?

• Emma fights in real time with a sword, parries, vine traversal, and assassinations.
• Successful parries earn points used to activate Koo’s command skills.
• Opening Koo’s command menu slows time for strategic choices.
• Blight transforms plains and wastelands into forests during exploration.

Before you play

• Practice parry timing because it also fuels Koo’s abilities.
• Use the slowed command menu instead of forcing every encounter through reflexes.
• Watch environmental transformation for new routes and hidden threats.
• Combine Emma’s positioning with Koo’s queued skill effects.
