No need to confront these guys when we can simply wait for them to pass, so it's best to hide.

It's time to go adventuring!
Luckily for the two, the rocks are big enough to completely conceal them. The pirates take a quick glance around, and shrug.
While they're at it, Noah notes that one of the pirates looks more like a chemist; they got goggles, satchels, and bottles on them.
"Welp, looks like it's nothin." The pirates leave, allowing you to continue forward.
"Phew, I hope the castle isn't in trouble. That explosion has me worried." Noah remarks.
Lyra takes a look forward to make sure the pirates were gone for good. "I'm no expert, but I don't think knights are trained to deal with pirate ship attacks..."
Noah thinks about it for a moment. Can they really hold off all those pirates? They have to! They cannot just give up. "Not to worry! We're Astral Knights, and we're trained in more than swordsmanship."
"What else do you do?"
"We can fight enemies at range using magical attacks."
"Fighting from a distance doesn't sound like something a knight would do."
Noah leans in close to Lyra with a skeptical face, and says: "This universe does not use typical knights with a strict code of honor. We're knights with only name and blade."
No response to that, probably because she didn't understand what she just heard.
Noah turns to continue his trek. "Alright, no time to lose. Lets-"
Lyra quickly grabs his arm, stopping him. "Wait, wait!" She points forward. "I'm sensing some dark energy that way! There could be something seriously evil over there!"
"Hm. Well luckily for us there's an alternate path. But there's hardly any trees or bushes that way, so we'd get spotted easily."
"Which way do we go, then?"
-C2: A shadowy figure was spotted in that direction. For all we know, he could be -extremely- evil.
-B2: It's an open field with no cover. If there are any pirates with flintlocks, they'd see us for sure.

Noah is a knight, and while he may not be well-equipped to face a few pirates chances are he could probably hold his own against something evil.

There's that shadowy figure! He's in the way, but it might be possible to sneak past him. Luckily, he seems to be preoccupied.
As soon as the two creep near the stranger, he immediately turns around and throws some sort of shadow dagger in their direction. "Wah!" It narrowly misses.
"Hmph. Didn't do that great a job of hiding." He says confidently.
Noah stands up, ready to fight. "Who are you?"
The stranger shrugs and lifts up his head; it was obvious that he was some sort of high ranking pirate based on his garments, but... when you get a good view of his face, you can see that it is very inhuman. His face and arms; and possibly his entire body, is pitch black, as if it were made of pure shadows.
His only distinguishing features were two bright yellow eyes in his head. "Even after all this time, you humans still ask the wrong questions." You could just imagine a grin growing on his emotionless face. "I am Wraith, if that matters to you." His voice was distorted.
"What... are you?"
"That's enough." A shadowy looking crossbow spawns in his right hand, and he steps forward. "This is your first move, knight. Let's see if you're as strong as they say you are."
This one looks dangerous.
Noah quickly draws his sword. "Lyra, keep your distance; he's trouble."
Wraith laughs a little. "Run all you want. I only need to see you to kill you."
(You can only control Noah's actions during combat, unless he is not in the party.)

This is a dangerous foe.
Noah raises his sword with both hands and does a vertical slash in front of him. A burst of light surrounds Wraith, exploding with holy power. "Wha-?" The intense light somehow causes his left arm to dissolve, and he staggers back. "So! You're not just a knight."
"Honestly, I don't understand why your arm disappeared, but..."
Wraith straightens himself as his arm reappears, now in some faded state. "Don't get your hopes up. Because you've got a ways to- Oof." An arrow lodges itself into Wraith's chest, but it doesn't seem to do much.
Noah looks at Lyra, holding a shortbow. She shrugs. "Should I have used something else?"
He didn't have a particularly good answer to that. "Well... I dunno."
The two didn't pay much attention as Wraith throws a shadowy looking javelin at Lyra, hitting her quickly and dissolving into shadows. "Wah!" She almost stumbles off balance, but it's not too bad.
"You underestimate me. I'm insulted."
"Sorry, but I did not to insult you, even if you are my adversary."

May as well defend, in case we've got something big coming at us. Also, I believe Noah has some ability that let's him take a hit for Lyra, right?
Agent

This is dangerous foe.
Wraith's faded arm completely regenerates, as if he had taken no damage at all. "HAHAHAHA-HAHAHAHA!" He makes a stance like he's empowered and suddenly warps in front of Noah, holding a shadow sword.
What's happening? I'm not feeling any clarity... Noah's movements start to slow, but he's already prepared to defend with his sword as the shadow starts to rapidly swing his shadow sword down on Noah.
Eight slashes, and Noah blocks seven of them. "Impossible! How are you not dead?!" He warps back to his previous position.
And now, Wraith's body looked like it was starting to wither. Particles of shadow started to seep from him and fade.
"Let's see what this can do!" Lyra focuses for a second, and a small amount of blood suddenly starts to trickle from her hand. She then holds her right hand up, with three darts made of what look like bone floating above it, and casts them towards Wraith.
They all prick him, and for a second, it doesn't seem to be doing anything. But then the small bits of blood on them create several sparks of fire before disappearing. He felt it.
Both Noah and Lyra were tired. Well, mostly Noah, but it gets worse as that pirate chemist comes running in. "Cap! I heard you yelling a lot! And who are those people?"
"Ah... excellent timing... chemist. Help me get rid of these fools while you still breathe."
"You got it!"
Noah didn't mind too much. "I suppose... it wouldn't be too fair... if you were just outnumbered. Hhh..." He drops to one knee, tired.
"You flatter yourself, human."
-Just Rest: Noah is out of Will, and does not feel like fighting at the moment.
-Flee: Oh and by the way eating that food isn't gonna work.
-Shoot: Lyra's basic attack. Increases Will on a successful hit.
-Succubus Innate: Lyra's abilities. Charming Kiss costs a high amount of Will to use.
-Defend: Something a character with low health would do.
-Rest: Increases Will and Health.

Wraith looks at his body, which is starting to become transparent. "Ghh... didn't know my wounds could become this bad... I'll have to murder you kids another day, then." He starts to use a teleportation spell, to the chagrin of Lyra.
"Hey, stop!" Lyra readies an arrow to shoot Wraith. Noah would've asked her to let him go, but he was busy resting. As she releases her fingers from the bowstring, Wraith disappears in a burst of smoke.
The arrow clatters to the ground.
"Heheh. Losers." The pirate chemist grabs a random potion from his selection and prepares to throw it. "Let's see how ya like this!"
Noah has regained a little bit of strength, so he tries to stop the potion, but he's too slow. The potion lands in front of Lyra, who falls back clumsily. "Aah." Within a few seconds, she starts coughing violently.
"Lyra! Are you..." Noah focuses on the pirate, his grip on his sword tightening.
The chemist chuckles slightly. "Wow, guess that recipe was a little stronger than I thought." He looks at his other adversary, who is now able to stand. "What, you want some too?" He holds up another potion to throw.

Noah rushes at the chemist and runs him through with his sword. "Take that!" The chemist clumsily drops his potion, but Noah catches it and swiftly crams it in one of the chemist's pockets. "Now tell me, what did you throw?!"
"P-poison..."
"What? Do you have a cure on you?"
"Sorry lad, but I ain't much use to you... uhh..." Noah loosens his grip on the sword, and the pirate chemist drops to the ground with the sword still in him.
Noah starts rummaging through the chemist's many pockets, looking for something. "Come on..." Lyra had stopped coughing, but she wasn't getting up.
There was a selection of bottled ingredients, though one couldn't easily tell what they were. Luckily, they all had labels on them, but...
-Chocolate Label: Cocoa is known for restoring health and closing wounds.
-Cherry Label: Has an unknown effect.
-Peppermint Label: Has an unknown effect.
-Strawberry Label: Has an unknown effect.

Yeah I went to the peppermint after the while. It's pretty much the perfect thing for this situation, from what I remember.

"Hope this works." He takes the bottle of peppermint potion and walks back to the unconscious Lyra. "Hey, wake up." He gives her a pat on the cheek to wake her up.
She's barely able to wake herself up. "N..." She coughs twice.
"Here, drink this. You'll feel better." Noah holds out the potion, which Lyra quietly drinks. "Come on, it's not safe out here." He starts trying to lift her up, but...
"Noah... am I... going to die?" She asks weakly. The potion is revitalizing her... But not very much.
The knight shakes his head. "No, no you won't. Just trust me, we're gonna make it. Now lean on me." He helps Lyra up and starts to trek across the wilds with her leaning on him for support.
It's several long minutes of walking, but then they saw something. An unknown person with two swords on the back of their waist was approaching. Noah was so tired... He dropped down to his knees.

"Please... help us." Noah blacks out. Mainly because blocking 7 sword attacks can be very tiring.
Some time later...
The Astral Knights were luckily able to regroup under the leadership of someone capable. Because of this, they were all able to survive. These three colleagues of Noah were...
Will, the slightly cowardly person who let the chickens in the castle.
Cadre, the kind, nature-loving kid.
And Xerces, the lone girl of the group who didn't like talking.
They were led by one person, but it wasn't Blake, as he was nowhere to be found. The current leader was dressed like a knight, mostly, but his neck adornment was a blue scarf. Additionally, his weapons were two swords sheathed on the back of his waist.
Now they marched on the tundra, looking for something. But someone was waiting for them. A masked person wearing a red cloak, with two pirates behind her. The knight grinned. "Are you seriously trying to do this again? I've already beaten you once before, and it didn't end well."
The masked person reached over her back and pulled out a heavy crossbow. "I do not understand your meaning."
"I recognize you, even with that mask on. You were that arbalest that I fought a long time ago. And you lost." The knight drew his left hand sword; gilded with marks of lightning. "So now i'll give you one last chance. Retreat while you still can, or i'll give you some serious injuries."
"I don't think so." The arbalest aimed her crossbow...
The knight chuckled. "Alright, come on boys and girls. Let's see how they like this."
