Phases:

1. First, focus all your attacks on the two Ktugachlings. They might seem less threatening due to lower HP, but their magic can quickly decimate your party.
2. Once the Ktugachlings are defeated, shift your attention to the main Ktugach.

Strategy:

• If you have Genis in your party, it's highly recommended to deactivate all his spells except for Aqua Edge. For Kratos, turn off his Fire Ball spell.
• Assign Kratos and Raine to be your primary healers. You and Colette should focus on dealing damage as attackers.
• Prioritize eliminating the Ktugachlings first. Their magic attacks are dangerous, and taking them out quickly will significantly reduce the pressure on your party.
• After the Ktugachlings are down, concentrate your efforts on the Ktugach. It has a strong defense, so keep up the pressure with all four characters. Eventually, you'll break through its defenses.
• After the battle, a scene will play where Colette gains wings and learns the 'Angel Feathers' tech.
• Head back to the entrance of Triet Ruins. Another scene will trigger, leading you to a Camping Spot. Talk to anyone you wish, then speak to Colette twice to end the camp.
• Your next destination is Palmacosta, but you'll need to pass through Ossa Trail first. Before heading there, return to Triet to restock at the 'Traveler's Mate'. A scene will trigger upon entry, and Raine will obtain the title 'Sisterly Love'.
• Stay at the Inn in Triet for another scene. When you exit Triet, head directly East to find the entrance to Ossa Trail.
• As you enter Ossa Trail, a scene will start. You can choose any dialogue option.
• Ossa Trail is a fairly linear path. Follow it, and be sure to grab the 'Battle Staff' from the chest.
• When you reach an area where you can see the sky (the top of the trail), take the South path at the fork to find chests containing 'Apple Gel' and 'Melange Gel'. Save your game here.
• Continue down the hill. Near the bottom, grab the 'Orange Gel' from a chest and prepare for another boss battle.
