| Beseech the Dark | |
After 40 seconds have passed or upon reaching 70% of its Max HP, returns to the center of the arena and gains a Void Ward which grants it immunity to all DMG. The Void Ward has a durability of 53 , which will reduce by 1 when hit by an Elemental attack, or 3 when hit by a Nightsoul-aligned attack. While the Void Ward is active, enters a charging state for 13 seconds where it continuously spawns spikes around the arena, each dealing 10% ATK as Physical DMG and inflicting 10 stacks of Attrition on hit. If charging successfully completes, produces a massive explosion across the arena, dealing 300% ATK as Physical DMG and inflicting 60 stacks of Attrition on hit. Destroying the Void Ward will interrupt the charging process and paralyze it for a period of time. | |

Tutorial[]
- Tenebrous Papilla
A great black monster that has come from the abyssal dark, eroding the memories of the earth. It can warp itself and transform into a formidable foe. Some of its attacks can cause stackable Attrition that, after a time, will cause your active character to lose HP. During combat, the Tenebrous Papilla will use Beseech the Dark to grant itself a Void Ward. At this time, use a certain number of elemental attacks to break the Ward, which will cause it to enter a confused state. Nightsoul-aligned elemental attacks will break the Ward more effectively.A great black monster that has come from the abyssal dark, eroding the memories of the earth.

Event Menu[]
A pitch-black monster that has descended from an alien world, it plunges its roots of corruption deep into the home of souls and memory. None knows what it gains from this, nor how it will reveal its chaotic nature and twisted self to this world.
Descriptions[]
Abyssal creatures with plant-like forms that have descended from a deep, dark, unfathomable, contorted otherworld.
These twisted monstrosities are capable of infiltrating deep down into the bowels of the earth, extracting memories to imitate and manipulate. Through this process of distorting the past's memories into more abstruse and sordid forms, they gradually draw closer to Irminsul's core, threatening to undermine its very existence.
Some say that these aberrations work constantly to corrupt the many colors of light, leaving only pitch-black information in their stead. Such a hypothesis seems to be confirmed by the branches they extend outward, as if to pierce the void itself...
