Continue along that path to the South to find your way into the next room.
Here you need to simply follow the path in front of you. This leads to a Save Point, which is recommended to use, just before the next boss fight. Head down the slope to find the next cutscene and the next Valkines and Kurt.
Kurt
Weaknesses: Human, Strike, Poison, Burn
Focus more on dodging Kurt's attacks and getting in attacks of opportunity. He is a very powerful foe and should be handled as such. When he enters Eleth Burst, back away as quickly as possible or just prepare for a massive heal on someone. Dodging his attacks is easiest to do by Quick-Stepping away from Kurt. Whenever your party manages Eleth Burst, unleash the combos on him and not his minions.
After the fight, check Kurt for the Platinum Bladerang. Be sure to also investigate the Valkines to get the discovery, “Forbrannir” and the skit, “Just Ask Gramps”. Use the nearby Save Point amnd then use the nearby Warp to quickly return to the entrance.
