Once you have reached Virga Island, you will find Junah near More’s Phantom. Engage her in conversation to start the “Save the Mourning Snakes”mission. Your goal is to eliminate a monster that is disrupting the Orbwise Path. Successfully completing this quest will also enhance your Imagination stat.

The Orbwise Path is a smaller dungeon located on Virga Island, where you will confront the Kokasadors boss at the end.

Recommended party composition for the battle:

Protagonist as a Wizard
Strohl in the roles of Commander/Sniper
Junah as the Masked Dancer
Hulkenberg as a Magic Knight

The Kokasadors poses a challenge as a level 42 boss, with vulnerabilities to Physical Pierce and Fire damage. The boss employs Mamudodyne (Dark) and Blizzaton (Ice) attacks, so be cautious with party members susceptible to these elements. Activate Strohl’s Commander Marakukaja Synthesis Skill to bolster all allies’ Defense for three turns. Use Junah’s Fire Synthesis moves to inflict substantial damage, potentially reducing the boss’s health by half within several turns.

Upon vanquishing Kokasadors and concluding the quest, Junah will become a Follower, and you will unlock the Masked Dancer Archetype, gaining access to her skills and Synthesis abilities.
