Intro & Disclaimer
With help from the community, I finally have enough information to construct a guide detailing exactly how to obtain each of Evelia Lyric’s 26 costumes.Vambrace: Cold Soul Achievement Sessions. There are currently no gaming sessions for the Magical Company achievements that you can join - why not register and make a new session? Aug 28, 2018 A complete one-stop shop of everything Xbox 360. Offering up-to-date Xbox 360 news, Xbox 360 reviews, Xbox 360 achievements, Xbox 360 achievement guides, Xbox 360.
I’d like to give a big thank you to the Devespresso Team for their work bringing the Icenaire setting to life. As it relates to this guide, special appreciation is certainly due to Minho for the outstanding artwork and costume design.
This early guide is a work-in-progress, so please comment or private message if anything turns out to be inaccurate or confusing. Things may also change as the developers release new updates.
I will eventually try to attach images for each costume, but for now I just want to get the quest information out to the community at large.
Warnings
Several costumes are dependent on quest choices and are therefore mutually exclusive.Acquiring all 26 costumes is not possible in a single playthrough.
Once a costume is obtained, it is unlocked account wide for all new and existing save files.
WARNING!Most quests are chapter locked and will fail if you continue too far in the story.
New chapters typically start when you enter a new district.
**I highly recommend that you return back to town each time a new chapter begins in order to pick up quests.**
Completing the Chapter 4 boss area (after 5 Industrial District paths) is a point of no return.
Completing the Chapter 6 boss area still allows exploration after.

Once you receive Sitara’s gift, you have the option to…
- Open it privately in your room. (This will unlock the Tantini costume.)
- Bring it to Charlotte.
If you bring the Tantini to Charlotte, you can…
- Keep it for yourself.

SPOILER: Charlotte will only survive the Ch.6 quest “To the Rescue” if she has the legendary protection of the Tantini.

Endings
I will try to minimize spoilers, but read at your own risk. This information in this section is somewhat speculative, so judge for yourself and don’t take everything as pure fact.In the New Game+ chapter select screen, there are 3 statues that can be selected, each representing one of the 3 endings. Once selected, the text gives clues for how to achieve that particular ending.
The left statue for the light ending says… At the final confrontation, “I stood my ground.”
The middle statue for the dark ending says… At the final confrontation, “I felt a strange kinship.”
The right statue for the neutral ending says… At the final confrontation, “I was paralyzed by fear.”
While not the only determinant for the endings, the most substantial contributors to the endings are the dialogue options you choose when discussing your dreams.
In Chapter 3, Talindra speaks to you about your dreams.
You have a choice of 3 options.
– 1. A dream of peace : SPOILER – Talindra Peace Dialogue[imgur.com]
– 2. A dream of rebirth
– 3. A dream of death
In Chapter 6, Mithra speaks to you about your dreams.
You also have 3 options here.
– 1. I was trapped with a hostile being : SPOILER – Mithra Hostile Being Dialogue[imgur.com]
– 2. I was trapped with a familiar being : (kinship is mentioned when you choose this)
– 3. I was trapped with a frightful being
In Chapter 7, a mysterious woman asks what you want.
Again you have 3 options.
– 1. To bring justice to this realm
– 2. To start a revolution
– 3. To make my own destiny
In each conversation, option #1 is light, option #2 is dark, option #3 is neutral.
I’ve documented some of the dialogue in images above, but i’m not 100% certain yet.
More images of dialogue to come later.
I have done a playthrough where I chose 1 light, 1 dark, & 1 neutral option for a neutral ending.
Others in the community have reported that 2 light options and 1 neutral can still get a light ending.
Choosing all 3 light options can still result in a neutral ending depending on your gameplay choices. For example, the prisoner in Chapter 3, and the boss in Chapter 6.
Be good in these situtations if you want the light ending, be evil if you want the dark ending.
The Oksae and Adamant Heart choices likely do not impact how light or dark the ending is.
You can rescue everyone in Chapter 6 and still get the dark ending.
