Missionaries - City of Dogmas, Aoyama

Chapter 4: Missionaries -Dogma City, Aoyama- is the fourth accessible Chapter of the Main Quest, set between the Shinjuku and Shibuya Wards. It consists of six scenarios, most of which have multiple parts.

In this Chapter, the Protagonist, while visiting the Missionaries guild to discuss stabilizing their new guild, gets caught up in a fiasco involving deceit, a missing guild member, and a pop star's obsessive stalker.


Scenarios

City of Dogma (1) (Shinjuku-Shibuya)

Not long after the debacle at the Berserkers base, Unknown icon.pngLil' Salomon abruptly wakes up the Protagonist, informing them they intend to keep track of what his master does now that he's in charge of a guild. After Unknown icon.pngMononobe checks in on them and classes let out, Shiro sets up a meeting for the guild. After he fills the Protagonist and Kengo in on what he learned about guilds, he says he intends to find out about the power of the The App by contacting the Game Masters, the mysterious figures that control how the App works and formed their guild out of necessity as he didn't know any Guild Master who was willing to do it for him. However, he found out that this is impossible at present as, without having the accepted number of people in their ranks and a public area to serve as the guild's Portal, they're stuck in temporary status. While he works things out with Andvari in order to secure a Portal site, Shiro reveals he invited Ryota as their newest member. Ryota explains he's had a Chalice Sacred Artifact for a while but, as he never knew how to activate it, had to ask a friend outside the school for help on how to use it. This works out for Shiro and the others as the person in question is the acting Guild Master for a guild in Aoyama, and they all agree to head out together to get whatever information they can.

Upon arriving at the area where they were to meet Ryota's contact, Kengo immediately becomes annoyed as they're standing on the grounds of Daikanyama Academy, a fact Shiro claimed was illegal to be used as a Portal, though Shiro checked around and found out that the Academy is listed as a college, and as such, is considered acceptable as a Portal. However, they are immediately accosted by angels associated with the guild who claim that the group is 'in contempt of [their] commandments'. This causes Kengo to blow a gasket, dragging the group into a fight.

City of Dogma (2) (Shibuya)

As the battle heats up, Ryota attempts to use his Sacred Artifact to help the others. However, as he still has no idea how to use it, his ploy winds up being nothing more than a badly times bluff. Fortunately, the fighting is stopped by the leader of the angels, Zabaniyya, and the acting Guild Master of the Missionaries, Maria. Maria apologizes to the group for not informing the angels that she was expecting guests ahead of time before starting a tour of the church that adjoins the Academy grounds and smoothing over the lingering hostility between Kengo and the angels. As Ryota and Shiro as their respective questions, Kengo, despite Shiro's protestations, instigates a 'sparring match' with Zabaniyya in an attempt to see how strong he is.

City of Dogma (3) (Shibuya)

Despite the number of blows dealt by Kengo, Zabaniyya doesn't counter them or show interest in the match, claiming he only puts in the effort against people he feels deserve it. After Shiro stops Kengo from doing anything stupid, the group is approached by Azazel, a clergyman in charge of the Missionaries' charity work, who informs Maria of an incident starting to take place at a park and asks the Protagonist's group to go with her to see how their guild functions.

As the group heads to the park in question, Kengo is still visibly upset with Zabaniyya's unwillingness to fight. Azazel calms him down and explains that Zabaniyya was his world's torturer, but, despite being good at it, became disillusioned about the direction his life was going. He also mentions that the Missionaries are the largest guild in Tokyo due to their desire to help those struggling through life.

Upon arriving at the park, Maria leads them to an area where where the Missionaries distribute food to the poor. She explains that this practice was started due to the sheer number of Transients that didn't have the resources necessary to adapt to living in Tokyo. Their conversation is soon interrupted by Choji, a member of Shinjuku Academy's cooking club who works part time as the Missionaries' chef. After introductions are passed around, Choji directs the group to the source of the incident Azazel mentioned: a group of Transients fighting over how much food they'll get. Despite Maria's insistence of handling the problem herself, the Protagonist's group dives in to help her deal with it.

Path of Thorns (1) (Shibuya-Hiroo)

Once the fighting is taken care of, Maria asks the Transients why they were fighting in the first place. They tell her that an unknown party claimed that the Missionaries have been unfairly controlling how much food they got based on past indiscretions, but when they look around, the mysterious instigator had used the riot as cover for their escape. The problem is amplified when angels from the guild threaten to kick the rioters out of the guild's territory, forcing Maria to come up with a cover story to get them to back off. Azazel calls Maria out on this, but, despite Maria saying she doesn't deserve any pity from him, agrees not to mention it as he knows she did the right thing. She returns to the group in time to see Ryota complain about not getting any of Choji's food. Maria tries to ease Ryota's 'fictitious illness' by offering some pudding as they accompany her to another one of the Missionaries duties, but he's to depressed about missing a chance to eat to care. As Ryota fantasizes about what the pudding would taste like, he unconsciously has his Sacred Artifact fill up with it. As Ryota eats up, the conversation turns to how Sacred Artifacts work, with Maria, after warning the group not to reveal too much about how theirs work in order to keep them from being misused by the wrong people, gives them more insight on how powerful the Rules their artifacts possess can be and that it's up to the wielder to decide how the Rule is used.

Later, the group heads to a hospital in response to a call Maria had to take. They meet the doctor who called, Mineaki, who leads the group to a ward with injured Transients the hospital hasn't been able to properly treat. To Ryota's shock, Maria uses her Sacred Artifact's power to absorb the pain the patients are in, but winds up wiping herself out from overexertion. Mineaki advises Ryota to let her rest up on her own as he treats the group to lunch. However, when the Protagonist doubles back to get Mineaki's wallet, they find Maria being harassed by a group of ninjas, but Maria subdues several with thorns emanating from her Sacred Artifact, as the Protagonist deals with the rest.

Path of Thorns (2) (Hiroo)

Despite the attempts the ninjas make to attack her, Maria's thorns make it impossible for them to get near her, forcing them to abandon one member of their group and escape. Maria informs the Protagonist that, just as there are Transients who struggle in the public eye, there are also Transients who use deceitful means in order to survive. As Maria releases the captured ninja, Ryota, who was wondering why the Protagonist was taking so long, walking in with the others. The distraction allows several angels to come in. They inform Maria that, after the disappearance of another guild member, Arsalan, they've been shadowing the remaining guild leaders in case they were attacked. However, when Maria begins to openly question their methods after they say Zabaniyya will head the interrogation, the angels, upset about Maria's expansion of the Missionaries territory and membership and suspicious that she had something to do with Arsalan's disappearance, suddenly turn on her. Despite Ryota's attempts to get them to co-exist, the angels continue to taunt Maria, claiming she has no understanding of their feelings. Fortunately, the argument is interrupted by Gabriel, a celebrity pop star associated with the Missionaries, who diffuses the situation with her presence alone. As the angel leave in pursuit of the ninja, who escaped in the chaos, Gabriel invites the group to a concert she's holding at the hospital, though she literally has to drag Kengo into going.

As the concert hits intermission, the group are impressed by how good Gabriel's music is. Maria explains that Gabriel's Sacred Artifact has the power to calm people, though she never uses it during concerts as her star power is enough to do the job for her. However, she's become worried that members of the guild have become distrustful of anyone different from them ever since Arsalan disappeared.

Cut to Missionaries church, the angels bring the ninja who escaped to Zabaniyya. Despite the ninja's claim that he won't reveal anything to him, Zabaniyya informs him that his Sacred Artifact's power to cause unending pain will eventually force him to talk.

Cut to hospital. Mineaki is approached by several ninjas, who he chastises for going back on their word by attacking a place he was working at. The ninjas apologize and explain to Mineaki, their apparent superior, that their only intention was to expose a secret Maria has been keeping in order to destabilize the Missionaries.

Cut to concert hall. As the group continues to wait for intermission to end, the Protagonist runs into Hati, Gabriel's self appointed top fan, during a zerg rush for Gabriel's merchandise, who offers to help them get through the chaos in order to get through to the merch stand.

Path of Thorns (3) (Hiroo)

After fighting his way through the crowd and getting multiple copies of the photobook he was after, Hati thanks the Protagonist for the help and gives them a pin that symbolizes that they're part of Hati's 'Gabriel fan club'. However, he becomes visibly upset when Maria says that Gabriel wishes to speak with Ryota and the Protagonist over him. As they make their way backstage, the Protagonist inexplicably becomes separated from Ryota and Maria and has a strange encounter with Nyarlathotep, a DJ in charge of mixing Gabriel's music, who points them in the direction of Gabriel's green room before disappearing. After catching up with the others, they meet with Gabriel. After gossiping a bit with Maria, she tells Ryota and the Protagonist a bit about her friendship with Maria before asking them to help watch over Maria.

As they make their way back to the concert, Ryota tells the Protagonist that, even though he has a lot friends, he doesn't have one that he has a personal connection with like the others. Their conversation is cut short when they run into Nyarlathotep again. After they watch him work at creating new beats, he points them in the direction of the exit and they head toward the concert. However, they find chaos around them as Shiro and Kengo tell them a crazed fan kidnapped Gabriel in the middle of the concert. The group makes their way though the concert hall until they catch up to Gabriel and her kidnapper: Hati. He tells them that he was no longer content with simply watching her performances and abducted her to have her for himself. As Hati descends into a mad rage, Nyarlathotep, who apparently spurred Hati on, appears and provides the wolf with copies of himself to chase off the others.

Those Who Live Lies (1) (Hiroo)

Narration of Hati's thoughts begins, revealing that, upon arriving in Tokyo, Hati fell head over heals for Gabriel. However, the angels in the Missionaries repeatedly attacked him in an attempt to get him to stop bothering her. After each beating, Maria would patch him up and tried to help him get over his obsessive love for Gabriel. However, no matter how many times he had to restrain himself, he knew that one day he would eventually relapse. It was at that point that Nyarlathotep began 'conditioning' him into going after Gabriel more directly.

Cut to concert hall. Despite the Protagonist's attempts to get him to see reason, Hati continuously attacks him. When Nyarlathotep gets involved after Kengo gets a shot in, they realize that Nyarlathotep was the one who instigated Hati's actions. However, Nyarlathotep rapidly creates clones of himself, tying up the Protagonist and the others long enough for Hati to escape with Gabriel, though 'Nyarl' tells them to meet them at 'the place where the Aoyama Guild started' if they plan to stop him. Once Nyarlathotep escapes and everything dies down, the group meets up with Maria. As they try to figure out what to do, Shiro asks Maria why she didn't return to her seat even though she left the green room before Ryota and the Protagonist. Before she can answer, Zabaniyya's angels appear, intent on capturing Maria due to her past ties with Hati. As Maria struggles to come up with a way to defend herself, the angels reveal something worse: in his interrogation of the ninja they captured, Zabaniyya learned that Maria had been lying about who she was for some time. The real Maria had been dead for some time, and she was merely using her name and identity to survive in the guild. However, Ryota and the Protagonist, having grown sick of the angel's bullying treatment of 'Maria', step in to defend her integrity. Although Shiro wants to avoid getting harassed by the Missionaries' sheer numbers, he is eventually convinced by the Protagonist to help. As the angels begin to attack them, Ryota activates his Sacred Artifact, flooding the area with pudding and knocking several angels out of the group's way, leaving the rest to be dealt with.

Those Who Live Lies (2) (Shibuya-Aoyama)

As the group is dealing with the angels attacking them, Nyarlathotep dumps Gabriel into a jail cell at a hidden facility. As she struggles to get her bearings, she discovers that Nyarlathotep was also behind the disappearance of Arsalan, having kidnapped him beforehand. Arsalan demands that Nyarl explain what his endgame for doing this is, but all he says is that he merely wants to cause 'mind-bending fiction'.

Cut to Shibuya. The group manages to use the pudding rapids Ryota made to escape the angels and make their way to a guild safe house. She informs the group that safe houses are established as a way to connect the number of Portals within a guild. As the group rests, Kengo asks Maria what the angels were talking about when they said she wasn't 'the real Maria'. After explaining that she was held up by Nyarlathotep in order to make her look suspicious, Maria reveals that, some time after arriving in Tokyo, she befriended the real Maria and took on her identity upon her death. They then decide that, as Arsalan, the only one that has any real control over Zabaniyya and the angels, is still missing, the best course of action is to save Gabriel, but can't go to the police as they are resistant to dealing with Transient related crimes. Fortunately, the Protagonist remembers what Nyarlathotep told him, and Maria realizes he must have been referring to Aoyama Cemetery, where the original members of the Missionaries formed the guild. However, she reveals getting there is a problem as that area is in the middle of a turf war with another guild: the Tycoons, a guild in Roppongi who's sole interest is gaining wealth and status.

Cut to Nogizaka Tunnel. Despite the search for Maria and the Protagonist's group, a contingent of angels is being forced back after failing to defend Nogizaka Tunnel by forces connected to the Tycoons. The Transient in charge of the Tycoon's forces, Hakumen, is gloating about her victory when a draconian Transient, Ophion, appears and, after a brief back and forth, demands that Hakumen hand over Gabriel and Arsalan to him. However, when Hakumen claims that Ophion got to them first and is trying to point the blame at her, Ophion abruptly leaves, confused as to why he messed up.

Cut to Aoyama Cemetery. The Protagonist's group have made it to the cemetery without any sort of incident. As they begin searching for any clues as to where Nyarlathotep took Gabriel, Shiro's Sacred Artifact starts shining on its own, revealing some sort of underground cemetery. Shiro and Maria suspect that this event is a 'collision of worlds', an area where part of a world that's connected to Tokyo intersects with it. However, just as they discover evidence that Nyarlathotep brought Gabriel and Arsalan here, Zabaniyya and the rest of the angels show up. Despite knowing how close they are to finding his fellow guild members, Zabaniyya refuses to allow it to interfere with punishing Maria for what she did. Knowing they can't get through to him without Arsalan, Kengo intends to take advantage of Zabaniyya's need to do the dirty work alone to tie him up long enough for the others to find him and Gabriel.

Those Who Live Lies (3) (Underground Graveyard)

Narration of Hati's thoughts begin, explaining the loneliness he felt about never being allowed to be near Gabriel and the grief that falling in love with her felt.

As Ophion gloats about the Missionaries losing Nogizaka Tunnel, the Protagonist's group makes their way into the underground graveyard, led by Shiro's Sacred Artifact. However, the further they go in, the more the graveyard begins to affect their sanity. Luckily, the Protagonist's Sword Artifact breaks the trance they are in, causing Maria to suspect that every major guild in Tokyo must know about their existence by now, as their Rending Rule is seen as the tipping point of which guild wins the Game. Maria, having found out about the Protagonist's status as the head of a new guild, asks them what they will value their new authority around, but Nyarlathotep and Hati show up before they can think about it. Despite Maria's attempts to get through to Hati, the lovestruck wolf, with Nyarlathotep keeping Ryota and Shiro held back, is too focused with facing off with the Protagonist, threatening physical harm on Gabriel if they don't stop him.

As the fight rages on, it becomes clear to Maria and the Protagonist that Hati wants them to kill him so he can't threaten Gabriel anymore. However he still denies it, forcing Maria to use her Sacred Artifact to not only take away his and the Protagonist's wounds, but also give them her memory of when the original Maria died. It reveals that, upon the original Maria's death, Azazel was instructed to help pass her identity onto the current Maria and give her a note saying she felt genuine love for her. As her injuries take their toll, Maria reaches out to Hati, telling him to not give up on love. However, Hati is still conflicted about his own feelings, forcing the Protagonist to try and subdue him.

Escape from the Underground Cemetery (Aoyama Cemetery)

As the Protagonist subdues Hati, Maria tries to transfer his injuries to herself, but Hati stops her. He asks were why she was always there for him even though no one else cared, and she tells him that, even though people might scorn him, if he has a few people there for him, he will still be remembered, causing him to ask Maria if she will be friends with him. At that point, Ryota and Shiro, having lost track of Nyarlathotep, catch up to them, only to find Maria dying with Hati having no idea how to help her. Unable to comprehend losing her and despite Nyarlathotep's attempts to get him to forget her, Ryota's grief gives his Sacred Artifact the power necessary to heal Maria's wounds.

Though confused about the inconsistency of Nyarlathotep's actions, Hati leads the group to Gabriel and Arsalan's location. As the others work to find the cell Arsalan was in, Hati apologizes to Gabriel, promising to stay away from her in the future, but Gabriel allows him to offer her indirect support. The mood is broken, however, when Shiro and Ryota find Arsalan asleep and unaware of what happened. Once awake and properly clothed, Arsalan thanks the Protagonist for saving him, though the group is somewhat annoyed at his flippancy over being held captive. However, their conversation ends when they ask Arsalan to reign in Zabaniyya before he seriously hurts Kengo.

Story interlude, no battle

Blazing Path (1) (Aoyama Cemetery)

Narration begins, revealing the backstory of Zabanizza. It reveals that Zabaniyya trained to be of use to his world for years, eventually being given the role of torturer. Though initially enjoying his work, he eventually struggled to find any meaning in it. Eventually, he was summoned to Tokyo, and everything changed for him.

Even though he's wounded and obviously overmatched, Kengo continues to taunt Zabaniyya into fighting. Zabaniyya questions why Kengo is able to continue, to which Kengo claims is based on being sick of Zabaniyya acting like a big man with the angels backing him. This prompts Zabaniyya to leach his flames into an open wound on Kengo's arm, but leaves himself open to an attack forcing the angels to gang up on him. Fortunately, Arsalan surfaces in time to break up the fighting. He chastises them for harassing the group despite knowing others were in trouble as Ryota deals with Kengo's injuries. Humiliated, Zabaniyya demands that Arsalan punish him for his actions, but the old lion forgives him instead.

However, their conversation is interrupted by Ophion and his army of dragons. He taunts Arsalan about making it easy for him to burn him alive, causing Zabaniyya to attack the dragon. As Zabaniyya keeps Ophion distracted, Arsalan begins leading the others away from the cemetery, but Ryota, unwilling to let Zabaniyya go down, rushes in to heal him. However, Shiro and Arsalan realize too late that flames that cause pain and a Chalice that heals pain are the perfect ingredients for an Exception event, what Nyarlathotep wanted from the start. The second the healing elixir of Ryota's Sacred Artifact hits Zabaniyya, it summons the Exception known as the Fisher King, which begins raising zombies from the nearby graves.

Blazing Path (2) (Aoyama Cemetery)

Narration begins, saying that Zabaniyya has struggled with adjusting to life in Tokyo, having become unable to discern right and wrong due to the different cultures from the other worlds.

As the group fights the increasing horde of zombies, Nyarlathotep runs into Zabaniyya, who is struggling to resist the power turning him into an Exception, who proceeds to take him somewhere to give him 'what he really want[s]' while hyping up the chaos the Exception he created is causing. Meanwhile, Ophion and his army retreat to avoid direct confrontation with the Fisher King. As the group struggles to control the situation, the zombies begin attacking and infecting the living angels, allowing the Fisher King to add to its ranks. It's there the group notices that Ryota, embarrassed that his reckless compulsion to help others resulted is this mess, has run off in the confusion. As Arsalan and the remaining angels keep the main horde preoccupied, the Protagonist and the others begin searching for their missing friend.

Blazing Path (3) (Aoyama Cemetery-?)

As the group fights its way through the horde of zombies, Arsalan reveals that he's familiar with the threat Exceptions pose, having heard of a rumor that an area of the Adachi ward was destroyed in a similar event. Since none of the parties involved survived, the app was unable to properly reset itself, resulting in a cover story of a bombing being established when the destruction mysteriously appeared. Not wanting a similar incident to happen to them, the group re-doubles its efforts to find Ryota, who was located by Maria a while back but are surrounded by zombies, and the missing Zabaniyya.

Arriving just in time to save him, the group finds that Ryota is traumatized from his failure to help out. As the group tries to calm him down, they are approached by Nyarlathotep, who reveals he removed Zabaniyya from the area due to the danger he causes. Despite the others protestations, the Protagonist demands that Nyarlathotep take them to him, which he does but claims he can only use his warping power to carry two people at a time.

The Protagonist and Nyarlathotep warp to the Daikanyama Academy church, where Exception-Zabaniyya is burning down the zombies that have already made it there. However, while overflowing with power, Zabaniyya is at war with himself, causing him to lash out when the Protagonist enters the church.

New Guild (1) (Church-Aoyama)

Narration of Azazel's thoughts begins. Narration recounts him having heard of a legend involving an angel who rebelled against his duties in Heaven, sparking a war. He was cast out upon defeat, though Azazel saw that he was still defiant even at the end. However, he is stunned when he apparently hears a similar voice in Tokyo.

As Exception-Zabaniyya and the Protagonist's fight reaches the end, the Protagonist is forced to constantly dodge Exception-Zabaniyya's increasingly deadly attacks. Even after his flames catch up with them, Exception-Zabaniyya is surprised that their will to protect people they know have done wrong. This distracting gives Ryota, who managed to follow the Protagonist there, enough time to heal their wounds, giving them enough power to sever the energy flow and return Zabaniyya to normal. Zabaniyya congratulates them, revealing his last bit of sanity through the fight out of a desire to face someone willing to protect the people he was tasked to punish. As the two form a pact, Zabaniyya thanks Ryota for being the catalyst for him finding what he was looking for and asks that the Protagonist help Ryota end the Fisher King's rampage. However, the Protagonist is left confused as Zabaniyya refers to them as someone named Shaytan right as he disappears. Azazel, who was watching the fight, informs them that he sees several people residing in them, making them connected to every world in some way. However, he reassures them that this doesn't make them any less human before further warning them of how dangerous the game is and that they themselves are likely the final obstacle necessary for them to win. Remembering the story Hati said Maria told him, the Protagonist resolves to win the game and make Tokyo a place where everyone is valued regardless of where they're from.

Cut to Aoyama skyline. Having fulfilled his part in the struggle, Azazel meets up with Arsalan. After being filled in on Zabaniyya's fate, Arsalan informs Azazel that the Fisher King has escaped into the city and that they need his Sacred Artifact's ability to scan their territory to find the Exception's location as quickly as possible. Nyarlathotep, who got all the entertainment he needed from the chaos his actions caused, offers his services, and the three head out to get rid of the Exception.

New Guild (2) (Aoyama)

As the Exception continues to run rampant, Toji is caught up in a fight with a mysterious multi-masked woman. Annoyed at his perceived interference with the game, the woman, Christine taunts him with news that what little allies he had were already dealt with before effortlessly subduing him. Afterwards, Christine meets with Nyarlathotep, another member of her group, the Entertainers, and she discuss the progress the game is going toward, worrying that 'the strong' might attempt to influence it once again.

Cut between Aoyama and the church. With the threat Zabaniyya caused dealt with, the Missionaries and the Protagonist's group now prepare to deal with the Fisher King. Using his Sacred Artifact to keep track of the Exception, they plan to re-establish the hierarchy of the conflicting Rules, with the Protagonist once again acting as a proxy for the absent Zabaniyya and the others once again dumping explaining the full details of how to do it onto them. After Choji passes along meals tailored to them for 'combat support', they head back into the fighting, with the Missionaries helping clear the zombies out of the way. When Azazel finally locates the Fisher King, Nyarlothotep, after chastising Ryota for not asking for more details on his 'two seat' joke, warps Ryota and the Protagonist there while Shiro and Kengo shore up the rear.

New Guild (3) (Aoyama)

As the Fisher King continues reviving victims into its zombie army, Ryota and the Protagonist catch up with it. After calming Ryota's fears of being in the Exception's mere presence, the two head into battle with the Exception.

After subduing the Exception, Ryota asks how to fix the heirarchy, and, like the others, is stunned at what he has to do, but concedes the top spot to the Protagonist. After saying a proper goodbye to the Exception, they re-establish the hierarchy, with Ryota promising that he'll have their back properly in the future. Once everything settles back to normal, Shiro and Kengo congratulate Ryota for the effort he put in. Maria, after filling the group in that Portal fights only take place between after school and sundown, thanks them for helping out with fixing her guild's crisis. As they go their separate ways, Lil' Salomon pops up, and, after being chastised for being out of the loop, reveals that, with Ryota part of the group, they are now a recognized guild. The Protagonist, in the interest of maintaining their wish to make Tokyo for everyone, decides to name the group's now official guild the Summoners, to the unanimous support of the others.
