Age of Reconstruction — Walkthrough

Age of Reconstruction — Walkthrough

The Dark Ages — humanity’s remnants cling on amid the ruins of a more prosperous time.

Overview

There is no spell of Safekeeping here. Survivors gather in the village of Littlehope with meager resources — most have given in to despair, but the young adventurer Heurich still looks ahead. This is the era the Doorway of Time first sends Elliot to.

Progression

Step-by-step dungeon progression for this Age will be detailed here. Cross-links to Faie Magic (shrines) and Weapons.

Era & Setting

The Age of Reconstruction sits between the Ages of Magic and Safekeeping. The hub town is Littlehope Village (NPCs Diona and Calotesia). Much of Faie’s early magic — Ignite and Vacuum — plus the Hammer and Dive abilities are unlocked across this era. Mount Phoenix here holds the second sage for the Standard Ending.

Dungeons & Progression

Water Ruins → Diving Manual

The Water Ruins use raise/lower water-level and red/blue orb puzzles. Beat Frauki Kapo for the Diving Manual, which unlocks Dive (underwater chests and gates). The Water Ruins are also the source of the Leytstaff Sword, central to the Standard and True endings.

Southern Caves → Heavy Hammer

The full Desert/Southern Caves are gated by Vacuum. At Southern Caves – Desert Exit you fight The Rathomobile: bomb its shield off, then attack. The reward is the Heavy Hammer.

Boss Strategy Callouts

Ulfr Frostclaw — the first tricky boss

In the snow region. He burrows into the snow — the best window to deal damage is the moment he emerges. Be patient and punish on the surface.

Heurich (endings quest)

A lengthy endurance battle — survive it rather than rushing. Clearing it opens the path to Mount Phoenix (the second sage).

Kaifried the Traitor — scripted loss

The Northern Tower fight is unwinnable by design — let yourself lose. (This is also where the Prologue Demo ends.)
