Meanwhile, Concordia's Mom, Victoria, continued to tutor her.

"Concordia, listen closely. There are three fundamental principles to Combative Aerial Techniques. The first is the Aerial Sensory Technique, the second is the Aerial Zone Control Technique and the third is the Aerial Volley Technique. Out of these three techniques, you have mastered two though you may currently be unaware of the theoretical concept behind these techniques" Victoria said.

"The two I've mastered. They are Aerial Zone Control Techniques and Aerial Volley Techniques aren't they?" Concordia asked.

"You're right. Kraken Andromeda's Ver. Dream Realm Border Wall Defense is an Aerial Volley Technique. Aerial Volley Techniques are basically Aerial Archery Barrage Techniques whose purpose is to break the offensive charge of an adversary and shatter their formation thus establishing a Defensive Line. Then we have Aerial Zone Control Techniques" Victoria said.

"They are techniques utilized to defend one's zone and the zones of allies while breaking and capturing enemy zones aren't they?" Concordia asked.

"Exactly right. When a fortification has a formidable defense, adversary infantry units usually attempt to breach it by shattering the Gates that are usually weaker than the rest of the Wall or they attempt to scale the Wall. This is why atop the Walls, the Sentries or Archery Units responsible for defending the Walls usually mount Defensive Devices in forms such as Boiling Cauldrons Of Oil. That way, they can defend the Walls by tipping these Cauldrons on enemy infantry units that attempt to scale the Wall. This is one application of Aerial Zone Control Techniques and the original application of the device we now refer to as a 'Firewall'. The temperature of the Oil tipped over the Walls deters enemy infantry units from attempting to scale the Wall. The second application is the 'Fire Volley Technique'. After tipping Blazing Cauldrons Of Oil over the enemy's infantry units, the Archers typically follow up the attack with a Volley Of Fiery Shots that set the spilt oil ablaze and alter the terrain to a fiery one. This Fiery Terrain gradually weaves a trap all around the enemy's infantry units. As their forces begin to dwindle, they may be forced to retreat. This is how Aerial Zone Control Techniques are used to capture enemy territory while protecting Ally Territory lying behind the Defensive Fortification" Victoria explained.

"Sounds pretty brutal" Concordia laughed.

"You don't have to apply it in a literal sense however you should at least understand how to apply the technique" Victoria said.

"I see...so the target of the Aerial Volley Technique is the enemy's offensive formation, however, the target of the Aerial Zone Control Technique is the terrain" Concordia realized.

"Exactly, and depending on how Aerial Zone Control Techniques are utilized, they can greatly multiply both the Offensive and Defensive Abilities of Allies while diminishing that of adversaries. That is especially true once affinities are taken into consideration. That's why the concept of the Elemental Balance is very important" Victoria explained.

"I see. What of the Aerial Sensory Technique?" Concordia asked.

"Aerial Sensory Techniques are Extra-Sensory Techniques that predominantly expand one of the five basic human senses predominantly those of sight, hearing and smell. It's one of the reasons your Dad's Dream Knight House, the Kenyah House is also predominantly referred to as 'The House Of The Hound'. It's because of their sharp senses" Victoria explained.

"I see. So Aerial Sensory Techniques are predominantly for detecting invasions, infiltrations and things of the sort" Concordia realized.

"Exactly, that's why Archers also predominantly act as Sentries" Victoria explained. "What you should know about Aerial Sensory Techniques is this, to every action, there is a preparatory action as well as a likely result. Learning to read the preparatory action to every action grants you foresight and is predominantly called 'Anticipation'. In ancient tongue, it's referred to as 'Reading The Wind' and is a very important component of Archery. This is how Archers are able to take down Mobile Targets through interception. You utilized this Technique in sync with Arlene's Christopher during the three hour Nightmare Rampage that occurred in Dream City recently. That was the technique you named 'Kraken Andromeda Ver. Coordinated Assault Mode'. Now you must master this technique as an individual. To read the Wind is why Wind Vanes were invented".
