Some of us answered CC Corp's mail on 10/29, but the call may not have come from the company. We loaded into a distorted version of Twilight Shore, Cruel Vindictive Scars. There, Mithrun - Macha, and Barrett - Tarvos were expecting us. Their forms had been warped and they no longer knew who they were. To the best of my memory:
Tarvos - His phase form had bug-like wings and shell-like armor. He was twice our height and fought with a spear, using moves of a Lord Partizan. - Tarvos' love for Mithrun granted Macha a Well-Loved buff, and under its protection, Macha was invulnerable to all attack. - Tarvos himself was protected by a green shield that could be broken by data drain. It was essential to use the cores we were given to fight him. - Once, he struck us with a condition that made us feel hungry, fearful, and hopeless, but we were able to break out of it together. - When he grew desperate, he began to use data drain. It's extremely dangerous and inflicts critical damage and multiple debuffs. Anyone drained must receive healing immediately. - He would lose control at times and rampage blindly, missing his attacks. Tarvos seemed lost and terribly angry. I think most of all at himself.
Macha - He appeared as he once did on Twilight Shore, but soon took on his phase form and summoned a glass ball to ride on. - He couldn't be hurt by anyone while protected by the Well-Loved buff, with the exception of Tarvos. - From his hollow chest he would sing a melody that inflicted charm on us. I was struck several times, and he compelled me to bring Winter to him. I'm grateful to everyone who stopped me. - At one point, those of us controlled had halos on our heads. The halos resemble the one I saw on Admin Hien not too long ago. I fear he might already be The halos broke when our charm broke. - He could cast lightning and strike with a watery sword, but mostly relied on charm to fight. - Macha was confused about love. I think he yearned for it, but never realized that he, that Mithrun, was loved all along.
The way to defeat them is to break their shields, bring their HP down, and data drain them. It took over a dozen of us to manage it.
Be very careful and bring healing. It's likely the rest of the phases are capable of data drain and possess abilities to manipulate our feelings against us. The phases are not immune to emotions themselves. I believe their real selves were inside them all along.
Once Macha and Tarvos were defeated, Mithrun and Barrett returned to us. We have to help the others. I'm hopeful we can stop the Waves and return home together.
