Lilith runs through Reservoir Forest, and encounters not only hostile creatures, but Soldiers from the Imperial Order. After going through the woods, Lilith falls into a trap. However, she escapes and finds the ones who laid the trap. They are a team called the Anti-Imperial Resistance, consisting of three members: a once-billionaire named Steven Tycoon, the mechanic Sarah Grindr, and ex-military solider named Daniel Hawkins. They check her collar, and know her as Lilith. While they are talking about Lilith however, Sarah examines her, and realizes who Lilith is. Lilith is actually a creature known as an Elemental Angel. The Elemental Angels were guardians begins who could manipulate nature to protect the world from evil. However, when the Imperial Order of Dahkel invaded, they hunted the Angels to supposed extinction. They say that Lilith might be the last of the Angels alive. They also know she is the only one capable of overthrowing the Order and saving the world. To help her, they give her two things, a Leafswirl Stick, which acts as her main melee weapon, and the ability to summon trees in specific locations. This helps her get further in the Forest, where she reaches a camp by the Order. She infiltrates it and defeats it’s leader. However, after she defeats the boss, Lilith sees something upwards, looking down on a ledge. It looks like a white-furred Elemental Angel. The mysterious beings then runs away shortly after being spotted by Lilith.

Lilith begins chapter 2 in a place called the Ancient Caverns, overrun with fungi. Lilith confronts monsters covered in both mushrooms and crystals, and finds an Angel Monolith, which gives her a power known as Fungal Paw, which can create a large mushroom spring anywhere. After exploring the cavern and reaching it’s most ancient part, she encounters the mysterious white-furred canine from the last chapter’s ending. He speaks to her through telepathy, saying both of their missions are futile, and that they should leave, coward in the shadows, away from the Order’s eyes. Lilith stands her ground, and the White-furred Elemental Angel, named Blanco, confronts her in battle. Lilith is victorious in the end, which causes him to disappear, and leave behind an Angel power called Wall Claw, which can let Lilith grab onto, and climb up walls slightly.
