The Sun Fort (太陽(たいよう)の砦(とりで)) is an ancient fortress in the Ancient Battlefield in northeast Crossbell.

Trails from Zero

Background

Like the Moon Temple and Stargazer's Tower, the Sun Fort was built by Crossbellan alchemists before the Middle Ages (c. S.700). It served as a fortress during the countless wars between Erebonia and Calvard over the territory now known as Crossbell. The enormous bell originally located outside of the Fort was removed during an investigation in S.1185, which can now be seen at the center of Crossbell City.

The Sun Fort features a main shaft that reaches 500 arge deep into the earth. The rest of the Fort's facilities are built around the main shaft, including laboratories, jail cells and an altar in the underground lake at the deepest part of the Fort.

After authorities destroyed the D∴G cult in S.1198, Joachim Guenter, one of the only survivors, found new shelter in the Sun Fort. He found the laboratory once established by the Crossbellan alchemists and put its high-tech facilities to use, completing his work on Gnosis, and at the depths of the Fort he found KeA, still slumbering within the spherical cradle.

During the Cult Incident of S.1204, the Special Support Section, accompanied by Estelle and Joshua Bright, descend deep into the Fort to arrest Guenter. After fighting off devils summoned by Guenter and Revache mafia members demonized by Gnosis, they discovered the missing citizens and the captive mafia who were brought by the brainwashed members of the Crossbell Guardian Force and the mafia. Deeper in the Fort they fight Garcia Rossi, who is able to fight off demonization after being injected Gnosis.

Eventually they find and confront Guenter at the altar where KeA was sleeping for 500 years, who fights them using an artifact staff and powerful archaisms. After defeating him the first time, he uses Gnosis to replicate Georg Weissmann's Evil Eye, but after Lloyd points out the failures in Guenter's plan, enraging him and making him lose focus, they break free, prompting Guenter to consume a large amount of red Gnosis, turning him into a massive demon.

Despite his transformation, the SSS and the bracers are able to back him into a corner, making him begin deteriorating and going berserk, trapping them with tendrils. At that moment Renne appears with Pater-Mater and blasts Guenter, freeing them and letting them defeat Guenter. He regains control and insists that KeA will become a god before fading away.

With Guenter dealt with, Renne tries to leave even after Estelle and Joshua accept her knowing her past, but Pater-Mater, having been modified by Joerg Rosenberg, is able to move on its own free will, returning Renne to the bracers and having her accept their offer.

Treasure Chests

Level	Key	Contents	Chest Quote
First Stratum	1	EP Charge II	Rest in peace, Unsho Ishizuka. Though you may be gone, your voice lives on through Sergei Lou and many others you gave life to.
	2	Lunar Pendulum	The amount of things in this chest now equals the game's title. Thanks a lot for that.
	3	Deep Ocher	Not even the Aureole can match your obsession with empty space.
	4	Curia Balm	I CLAPPED! I CLAPPED WHEN HE USED THE EIGHT LEAVES ONE BLADE STYLE!
	5	Celestial Balm	Abandon all hope, ye who open me.
	6	Tearal Balm	Mafia, assassins, corrupt politicians, and a durg-dealing cult. Hell of a day, eh?
	7	All sepith ×200	Is that a bulge of sepith in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
	8	EP Charge II	An evil, unassuming-looking, middle-aged scholar? In MY Trails game?! ...It's more likely than you think.
	9	All sepith ×200	Music trivia: The Sun Fort's music is a joint effort. Momiyama composed it, while Sonoda and Unisuga rearranged and fine-tuned it. Codename: XS065UP.
	10	S-Tablet	Fun fact: Trails in the Sky was actually the second arc of the series. The first was Trails of Oregon for DOS.
	11	Ares Greaves	Monsters: Zan Su ×2, Prairie Bat ×4
			If you grind your teeth in an RPG, do they get stronger?
	12	Curia Balm	Every time you open a chest, Aidios sheds a tear. Think about it.
	13	Proxy Puppet	If you think about it, a chest is just a barrier between you and what's inside. Not like that's stopping you!
	14	EP Charge II	I came here from Liberl to hide from a bracer couple that kept looting my fri-- YOU TWO!
	15	Lost Campbell	Monsters: Zan Su ×2, Prairie Bat ×4
			Ever wonder why Elie uses a gun? She'd rather Elie-minate the monsters than take any chances.
Second Stratum	16	Evergreen	To the guy who invented zero: Thanks for nothing!
	17	Harmonia Boots	Monsters: Hellhound ×4
			Lloyd and friends can get over barriers, but they sure can't get over stealing from treasure chests.
	18	Curia Balm	If I were a trader, how much would my Hay be Worth? Do you think I could Renne a business off of it?
	19	Tearal Balm	Apparently, Arios has been thinking of challenging Cassius Bright to a duel. If you ask me, he should just stay in his McLaine.
	20	Defender	Monsters: Hellhound ×4
			Detective Bannings... TEAR. DOWN. THIS. BARRIER.
	21	EP Charge II	You know there's no achievement for reading all of these, right?
	22	Celestial Balm	Just how badly do you have to screw up cooking a Sincere Lunchbox for it to become a Prank Box, anyway?
Third Stratum	23	10000 mira	Inside are unholy words written in blood: 'Crossbell when?' You etch 'Crossbell win!' below it.
	24	Sigma Drive	Monsters: Sea Moon, Death Moon ×4
			Did you know? Fifty percent of the time, Randy's the greatest all the time!
	25	10000 mira	How Can Miras Be Real If Our Eyes Aren't Real
	26	All sepith ×200	Someone stored Gnosis inside me and next thing I knew, I was in this cell.
	27	Florentin	Monsters: Sea Moon, Death Moon ×4
			Chief Roberts has been pulling strings to have Crossbell rename the Geofront the 'Tiofront'. Would the dev team have to change their name, too?
	28	Tearal Balm	Drei... Zwei... Eins...! And magically appears...null.
	29	Attack 3	The chest has been stricken with the 'Curse of Kiseki'. Sadly, nothing else will come out of it for years.
	30	EP Charge II	I'm a well-known gambler among chest folk. You can call me Gambler Jack-in-the-Box.
	31	Passionate Rouge	It was the chest of times, it was the worst of times...
	32	Curia Balm	I expected nothing, and I'm still disappointed.
	33	Curia Balm	Found nothing. Can't hold any more, so left it behind.
	34	Celestial Balm	You discover all of Anton's old love letters. After reading one, you can't bring yourself to read the others.
	35	Still Blue	I did my job. Now you do yours.
	36	Water & Ice	Monsters: Sea Moon, Death Moon ×4
			My Chestelle... Your innards have grime like old gum. - Treasua
	37	Astraia	Monsters: Sea Moon, Death Moon ×4
			How can Estelle spin her staff so fast? Because it's a hurry-cane!
	38	Evade 3	The chest asks if you will take it with you. It wants to see the world, particularly Calvard. Sadly, chests don't make good pets.
	39	Aurora Dress	Monsters: Sea Moon, Death Moon ×4
			You can argue over who best boy is, but I think we can all agree that Zeit is goodest boy.
	40	All sepith ×200	This is what I get for opening myself up to others.
	41	Solar Pendulum	As you gaze at the empty chest, you convince yourself that your friends are the only treasure you'll ever need.
	42	Meghaduta	You're going to love the sequel. It's called Trails to ZX Advent.
Fourth Stratum	43	Orion Guard	Monsters: Golden Statue, Rip Throat ×4
			So this is what an existential crisis feels like...
	44	Tearal Balm	Hello, darkness, my old friend... I've come to be looted again...
	45	EP Charge II	You grimace in horror at the anatomically correct treasure chest.
	46	Tearal Balm	If you're looking for self-help books, there's one I recommend called 'Getting Over Barriers'. It's located in the special support section.
	47	Curia Balm	Just as this chest is hidden in a horrid place, so is treasure hidden in each person, no matter how horrid they seem on the outside.
	48	Celestial Balm	Give a man a ladder and he'll climb a wall. Give a man companions and he'll protect a city.
	49	Celestial Balm	You've been demanding it, so here it is. The long-awaited sequel: Trails in the Chest 2! ...What do you mean the game's almost over?
	50	Celestial Balm	If this was your first playthrough and you were expecting to get the treasure chest achievement just now...yeah. That's only possible in NG+. Sorry.

Trails to Azure

Background

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

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

At the Sanctuary of the Azure Tree, Mariabell Crois reveals that the SSS should have perished in the Sun Fort during Guenter's berserk rage before dying himself, after having entered the Fort without the bracers, as seen at the beginning of Trails from Zero, which meant Renne wouldn't have come to help them out. However, KeA changed reality so the SSS and the Brights became close, making them infiltrate the Fort together and saving their lives.

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