Ever the heroes, Serenoa and his cohorts have elected not to fork over the Roselle like human leftovers to the tyranny of Hyzante. War is thus inevitable, and House Wolffort knows it in full; but an unexpected enemy will soon stand before them, drunk on Hyzante's whispered promises.

As ever, the wheels of a branching narrative are turning in Triangle Strategy. No matter what happens next, blood will be spilt upon the fertile soil of the Roselle's hidden village – armed with our guide, you can make certain it won't be yours.

Triangle Strategy Chapter 11 Part 2 Main Story 1

The party gathers to discuss the clear ramifications of their "betrayal' against Hyzante. Saint Serenoa isn't exactly going to earn any brownie points for this flagrant act of defiance. News soon comes via the ever-reliable Anna that an unknown foe marches their standard toward the Roselle.

Triangle Strategy Chapter 11 Part 2 Main Story 2

At the Rosellan Village, a ruthless mercenary named Rufus stands before Jerrom and his peers, delivering the inevitable ultimatum. If you're listening to Triangle Strategy's English dub, Jerrom stands defiant. If you're listening to the game in Japanese, Jerrom pretty much sounds like he's going to crack Rufus' skull right then and there. Just a little trivia.

Well, this was inevitable the instant House Wolffort opted to protect the Roselle. But the identity of the enemy was far from a done deal; it's Silvio's raw jealousy that's to blame here most of all.

Remember that Triangle Strategy's suggested levels per battle are always a rather tall order. You don't need to be Level 18 to win this, but you do need to be prepared. Swing by the Encampment, double-checking that you don't have anyone eligible for a promotion (and the requisite medal). If you really want to hit that high mark of 18, take part in a few mental mock battles. But the most important thing is to keep your weapons as up-to-date as possible.

If you're new to Rufus – he pops up a couple of times on opposite sides of the narrative fence – know that he's as tough to beat as he looks to be, which is to say, rather a lot. What keeps this battle from hitting five or even four stars in our difficulty analysis, then, is the fact that it's an uphill climb for the enemy, not for Serenoa's retinue. There's a limited number of avenues for Silvio's mob to reach you, and we're going to keep them all gated off as best as possible. Let's mosey.

Triangle Strategy Chapter 11 Part 2 After Battle

Oftentimes, Triangle Strategy's most dangerous scenes come to a firm close when resident assassin badass Anna swoops in for a killing blow. Silvio, however, pushes things too far for the relatively calm Serenoa Wolffort, and before you know it, House Telliore has fallen directly to House Wolffort's ruling blade. Let this be a lesson to all, from Glenbrook to Chris Rock: don't insult this man's beloved.
