Nui Sociere Closes Out the Dragon Storyline in Trails in the Sky the 2nd

NIJISANJI — Nijisanji streamer Nui Sociere played through the climax of the ancient-dragon storyline in Trails in the Sky the 2nd on Tuesday, in the 10th installment of the playthrough. The stream, which carried a spoiler warning in its title, ended with the party destroying the device that had been controlling the creature and the dragon, once freed, speaking to them.

The session opened aboard the royal airship Arseille as the Liberl army launched its plan to capture the dragon. Patrol ships were to herd it toward a lake and bring it down with tranquilizer shells. The plan appeared to work, and the dragon dropped into the water. About an hour and seven minutes in, a crew member noticed a round bulge on its body that turned out to be a Gospel, the recurring device the series’ villains use. The dragon woke, outran the fleet and vanished into a fog-bound canyon. Chat produced 107 messages in that minute, many of them simply “It’s a Gospel.”

“Let’s stop around here for today. Next time we start with the vacation, I guess.” — Nui Sociere, closing the stream

With the airships unable to follow, the party set out on foot. Agate, whose old sword had broken earlier, carried a new one fitted with a unit sent by Professor Russell, designed to break a Gospel’s frame. Chat singled out the professor, one message saying it was no exaggeration to say Liberl would have fallen without him. Along the way Nui stopped to rework the party’s accessories against status effects before winning a tough fight on a rematch. Near the 3-hour mark, Agate’s strike with the new sword destroyed the Gospel. The dragon, which gave its name as Regnart, thanked the party, explained who had attached the device and handed over large crystals as an apology for the damage it had caused.

The story then moved ahead a week, to a grave visit where the army’s general and Agate spoke about how the army and the guild should work together. An uninvited visitor from the villains’ side arrived and mentioned a place called Hamel, a name the general would not discuss. In the next chapter, Joshua said goodbye to Josette and her family before setting out to disable an approaching ship. Chat hit 140 messages a minute during the farewell, with many viewers calling it a parting for good.

The guild then offered the party a few days of rest. Nui ended the stream there and said the next session would pick up with the vacation.
