Holy crap, everything from the fight with Wald on was pretty incredible. So much good stuff here, and Chapter 4 looks to be upping the stakes even more. Did we just get a lot of NPC deaths?! I know Ilya doesn't die because of Cold Steel (although she must be pretty seriously injured because even by CS4, she's not back with Arc en Ciel yet), but the rest I'm not sure of just yet. Trails doesn't kill off many named characters, so we'll see.
