Profile

• Music: "tartarus_0d02"

Arqa first becomes available for exploration on May 10th, after the player defeats the Arcana Priestess. However, unlike its predecessor the Thebel Block it is divided into two sections, and the second is unlocked on June 13th, after the Arcana Empress and Emperor are defeated.

In total, Arqa has 48 floors that go from 17F to 64F. The division between the two sections can be found on 40F. The preset floors are 25F, 36F, 47F and 59F.

Visually, it features a darker design than Thebel, with stone castle wall designs and chitinous materials lining the floor and an occassional face on the wall. The floors feature a repeating skull design with inverted patterns in places.

The music that plays in the Arqa Block is simillar to the one that plays in the Thebel Block, but has a louder synth percussion.
