Chapter 1: Resurrection

Chapter 2: First Idol — Arora
Chapter 2: First Idol — Arora
Arora is an AI pop idol powered by Harmony Corp. Her arena is a neon-lit digital stage. Phase 1: Melody projectiles fire in rhythm — dodge on-beat and counterattack. Phase 2 (below 50% HP): Harmony Trap — area denial attack. Stay near arena edges to avoid it. She is vulnerable for 3 seconds after the trap ends. Defeating her reveals that Harmony Corp was tracking all former bandmates — something bigger is at play.
