Objective: complete the trial of air; defeat the Thunderbird

Prize: 10000 XP, +3 magic power

Speak with the Maiden standing by the entrance (M1, 8) to begin the main mission. Your objective is completing the trial of air - winning in a predefined battle with a very small army at your disposal. Approach the Inferno units (M1, 9) to begin the fight. You have just a few Spectral Dragons and quite a lot of demon forces to defeat. Luckily Vein's attacks should be capable of dealing massing damage to the enemy by now. In case you lose some Spectral Dragons, you can return them to their undead life with necromancy.

Now explore the area and defeat the Thunderbird (M1, 10). This enemy is slightly more powerful than Dragon Eel, but he still shouldn't cause you much trouble. Your legendary units should take a few or even a dozen thousand life with each attack, so the fight shouldn't last long. Now pick up the artefact left behind by the Thunderbird and take the obtained Air Elemental Essence to the nearby elemental gate (M1, 11).
