Grinding until Rosch reached level 30 and collecting the best equipment for him at this point in the game brought balance to the fight with the thaumachine. As expected, Rosch's move that launches the enemy and lowers their defense was indispensable, along with his ridiculous defense and high HP.
What happened after the fight makes it certain that there's still a healthy portion of the game left. While Stocke and co. seal the victory in Lazvill Hills, Cygnus' forces at Judgement Cliff are routed by a new weapon. It's definitely something powered by the Black Chronicle as it draws mana out of people's bodies until they're reduced to piles of sand (possibly referred to as "the power of Flux"). Earlier in the game this happened to a couple of characters, and was directly linked to the power of the Black Chronicle.
Considering who has the Chronicles, it seems almost like the prophet Noah could be the father of the two children of the Chronicles. So far, it seems like they could be an Alistellian affair since Hugo and Stocke bear them. If it comes up that Noah was a thaumatech engineer as well as a charismatic spiritual leader, then there's one mystery solved.
Right now, though the most pressing of mysteries is how Stocke will undoubtedly need to travel back in time to keep Alistel from routing Cygnus.
