The Barred Gate is the 20th campaign chapter on The World Map, hosting 60 individual stages. It serves as a portal to the world of the Hypogeans, sealed off by Dura after the first Hypogean War but recently re-opened. The only mortal known to have been inside and survived is Ancelot. The Barred Gate is available upon completion of Sanctum
As such a climactic site, it is the end of the first portion of the game, and the last chapter before advancing to the Southern Continent.
Completing this chapter unlocks access to battle speed x4, effect speed x6, and The Contorted Realm. In addition, players will be rewarded with Isabella and 20 Faction Scrolls.
Background[]
The Barred Gate got its name after it was sealed by Dura many millennia ago after the great invasion. It is the source of all greed, jealousy and loathing that exists within the world. It is from here that Annih's children, the Hypogeans broke the seal and poured forth from it into the mortal realm. Its evil is immense and radiates outward, corrupting anyone and anything without the willpower to resist its calling.
