Players can draw upon this power, hidden within plants, mechanisms, and even the land itself, to overcome challenges in exploration. They may also take on the form of a unique elemental lifeform, the Kuuhenki, gliding swiftly along small patches of mist and Moonlanes. In battle, Kuuvahki reveals itself in both enemies and allies, requiring Travelers to devise targeted strategies to prevail \u2013 and granting certain characters the ability to unleash special Lunar Reactions.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Three new Nod-Krai characters will be available to pull for: Lauma, Flins, and Aino.
