Fallen Leaf: Part 39: Into the Cool Blue (+ Fighting Thorn)

After a deep trek through the underwater civilizations, you return to the surface and see why this world is called 'Dual‑Tone Tides'. The second half of the area lacks the lime‑green tones of earlier levels, and the water remains the cool blue it was meant to be. The Gold Chest treasure is an Old Sweater, but Thorn has returned to claim it for herself. She dispatches you easily, takes the sweater, and declares it the 'Sacred Armor of Evil's Bane'. She also seems to think the twins are servants of Xankulos.
