Reward(s)	Megidola Stone x3

"Four Wings, Four Heads" is a Challenge Quest in Shin Megami Tensei IV.

Overview

This quest becomes available after siding with Jonathan following the events at Tsukiji Hongwanji on New Game+.

The four demons to be slain are Morax, Chimera, Tokisada, and Gryphon. On the path to Shene Duque, Aniel appears, and explains that they are in Nakano, Ryogoku, Shiba, and Komagome, respectively. These demons have been chosen as sacrifices so that a certain angel may be summoned.

Each demon appears as a fixed encounter in their respective locations on the overworld map. Tokisada has unique dialogue, while the other three are silent.

After each demon is defeated, a Messenger Angel appears to take their head for the ritual. Morax's head acts as the head of a bull, Chimera's head acts as the head of a lion, Tokisada's head acts as the head of a man, and Gryphon's head acts as the head of an eagle.

Once all four demons have been slain, Aniel appears and begins the ritual to summon the Seraph. Four characters are drawn on the ground, and a head is placed on each one. Aniel invokes the names of the four Evangelists—Matthew, John, Mark, and Luke—causing the heads to disappear one by one in a flash of light and summoning a Seraph. Aniel then explains that the Seraphs are the highest-ranking of the angels, and with their power, the angels are prepared for the coming battle. He then states that he and the Seraph must return to the Lord's side, but if Flynn is in need of the Seraph's power, then he should gather the appropriate angels.

After this, the quest is completed, and Seraph's Special Fusion is unlocked. Tokisada also becomes available via Fusion Accident.
