Editing Circle of Temper (section)

====Middle echelon====
A [[missing lynx]] is the echelon giant monster and it's prowling on a narrow pleateau close to the entrance of the Zealot's Chamber.

The middle echelon is accessed after the purple travelite is given to Psaro by [[Percival]]. The party is immediately confronted by a [[flamethrower]] named [[Fuego]] upon exiting [[Rosehill Tower]], who demands their names and accuses them of being underlings of the big hitter, [[Ash]]. When Psaro states his intent is to bump off Ash and spread his reputation Fuego states their goals are aligned: Ash has been gathering local monsters to sacrifice them in a profane ritual in the core of the mountain known as the [[Sepulchre of Flame]].

Deep in the lava hollow, Fuego explains that Ash intends to sacrifice the kidnapped monsters in a temple which was submerged in magma until very recently. Accessing this temple was why Bernie opened the Infernal Gate in the lower echelon, as it is where the [[Ifreann Eagle]]'s soul rests. Once revived, the bird becomes an immortal phoenix who would bring disaster to Nadiria under the control of Ash and his brothers.

The dragon is confronted just as he's about to perform the sacrifice, but Fuego's assault proves ineffective and the monsters are used to create a new body for the eagle. Ash slips away after he is defeated, and in gratitude Fuego joins Psaro's ranks.
