The Sky Bandit's Stronghold (空賊砦) is an ancient fortress located deep in Nebel Valley.

Trails in the Sky FC

Background

The stronghold was the home and main base of the Capua Family and their gang of sky bandits. It was originally an ancient fortress from the time of the Ancient Zemurian civilisation, and was hypothesized to have been built prior to the Great Collapse. It had also been hypothesized by Olivier Lenheim that it was built to be a shelter of sorts for people.

After the loss of their land in Erebonia, the siblings took the Bobcat and resorted to a life of piracy, eventually repurposing the old ruins as their base. During the Missing Linde Incident in S.1202, all of the crew and passengers on the Linde were transported to this fortress and kept under strict guard in one of the rooms. The hostages were rescued by Estelle, Joshua, Scherazard and Olivier during their infiltration of the hideout, while the Royal Army, led by Alan Richard of the newly founded Intelligence Division, arrested the bandits trying to escape.

Trails in the Sky SC

Background

Later that year, the ancient fortress was converted into a new Liberlian military training facility to train fledgling pilots in air combat, which Dorothy Hyatt was sent to report on. The Bobcat was also stored here until Mueller Vander arrived to return it to Erebonia.

Hello there, beautiful. May I have a moment of your time?

Please be aware spoilers for Trails in the Sky SC may be present in the following section. Hit [Show] on the right if the show must go on. Adios, amigos!

Joshua, having freed the Capua siblings from prison, temporarily allies with them to continue his plan to eliminate the Faceless. They infiltrate the stronghold in order to steal the Bobcat back, but Mueller attempts to stop them. Joshua and Josette (who ends up outclassed) face off with Mueller, but they're interrupted by the Capua brothers managing to start off the Bobcat's engine.

Joshua, who has deduced Olivier's identity from Mueller, escapes with the Bobcat and the Capua family and in the process is photographed by Dorothy. She would later take this photo to Estelle in Grancel, who decides to follow this lead and travel to Bose.

There we go, the end of spoilers. Thank you for your time!

Treasure Chests

Floor	Key	Contents	Chest Quote
B2F	1	Attack 3	Excuse me, that wasn't meant for you. Put it back!
	2	Feather Brooch	You got away with running your hands down this random chest once. Don't push your luck.
	3	EP Charge	Inside the chest is emptiness. That's all there ever is. Eternal and interminable.
	4	Teara Balm	Wow, could you at least ASK before opening me?
	5	Curia Balm	This chest's contents have already gone on to a better place: your pockets.
	6	EP Charge	You found a fine layer of dust!
B1F	7	EP Charge	You obtain the Emperor's New Clothes. Not.
	8	Teara Balm	Was returning here another...BRIGHT IDEA?
	9	Teara Balm	When you gaze long enough into the empty chest, the chest gazes back into you.
	10	EP Charge	Unable to see the bottom of this ostensibly empty chest, you drop a pebble into it. You don't hear it hit the bottom. ...Probably best to leave.
	11	Tear All Balm	Aw, man! Nothing AGAIN? Geez.
	12	EP Charge II	This chest is as empty as my well of creativity after writing all of these messages.
