Malignant Chambers – purify the miasma

Inside these corrupted rooms, players will face Magafushu, a monstrous being spawned from potent foul ooze. As it lingers, it increasingly contaminates the surrounding area.

Objective: Your mission is to clear the room by overcoming Magafushu and dissipating the harmful mist it has released. It’s a tough battle where Magaori (Minions of Magatsu) will keep appearing until you defeat Magafushu, but clearing these areas will unlock deeper parts of the world and bring more substantial rewards.

Wanderers – duel the ronin

Spread throughout the globe are solitary figures called Wanderers. These intriguing individuals are perpetually on the lookout for a suitable opponent. If your path crosses with one, they will invite you to an honorable contest of ability.

Defeating a Nomad brings you scarce resources for potent enhancements, but it’s more than that – it signifies your prowess and is an initiation into the ranks of the powerful. Don’t overlook them; they’ve traversed this realm far longer than many others have lived.

Boss Chambers – enter the domain of Magatsu-hi

In Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree, the riskiest places to be are the Boss Chambers, these are hallowed battlefields where deities collide, and fates are shaped.

Or, more casually:
In Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree, the most dangerous spots are the Boss Chambers – these are sacred arenas where gods fight it out, and destinies get decided.

Your first major test lies in facing the First Route Boss:

Ensa’s sanctum is safeguarded by top-tier guards, battle-hardened by the power of Magatsu. To face the deity directly, you must first surmount these protectors.

Prepare for the trials ahead

No matter if you’re cleansing Sinister Rooms, sparring against ancient Samurais, or facing divine opponents in Boss Realms, one fact remains undeniable: the path before you brims with peril. Rally your Protectors. Hone your weapons. And remember that while the Holy Tree’s radiance can lead you, Magatsu’s darkness never strays far.
