'''A Foul Windmill Blows''' is the first [[Darkmess Tentacle]] battle on the planet [[Barrendale Mesa]] in ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]''. It is located at the Windmill, and is part of the main quest [[It's an Ill Wind that Blows]]. The heroes must defend the windmill's turning mechanisms from enemies for eight turns. At least one turning mechanism must remain to win the battle. Completion of the battle will grant the heroes a [[Purified Darkmess Energy Crystal]], along with the windmill getting fixed, which gets rid of the electrical storm on Barrendale Mesa.

==Layout==
The battlefield consists of a giant windmill, with high ground directly in the center of it, with even higher ground that can only be reached with a Team Jump. The four turning mechanisms are located at the four sides of the center, with a [[Jump Panel]] in front of all of them. There are four sections of the windmill, each symbolized by a different color. Each of these sections have a Jump Panel, along with two electrical orbs which cause the ground to be electrocuted, damaging anyone and causing the [[Shock]] Super Effect when attacked. The area that is shocked is symbolized by lightning bolt symbols on the ground.

===Yellow section===
The yellow section consists of two [[Riptide]]s in the middle, along with a [[Sea Stooge]] further back. There are two barrels containing the Shock Super Effect close to the Sea Stooge.

===Blue section===
The blue section consists of two barrels containing the [[Splash]] Super Effect further back. No enemies are present here at the start.

===Orange section===
The orange section consists of two [[Magnafowl]]s in the middle, along with a Sea Stooge further back. There are also two barrels containing the [[Burn]] Super Effect close to the Sea Stooge.

===Purple section===
The purple section has two barrels containing the [[Gust]] Super Effect further back, and no enemies are here at the start.

==Battle==
Each turning mechanism has three hit points, and enemies will prioritize destroying them rather than attacking the heroes. During the battle, indestructible [[Darkmess portal]]s will appear at the four sections.

===Turn 1===

In these sections, one portal is in the middle, while the other is in the back. Both back portals have a Spellraiser, while the middle portals have a Riptide and a Magnafowl in the yellow and blue sections respectively.

===Turn 6===
At the end of this turn, another four Darkmess portals appear, this time in the orange and purple sections, with two Darkmess portals each. Two in the back of the sections, and the other two in the middle. The back portals have a Sea Stooge and a Spellraiser in the purple and orange sections respectively, while the middle portals have a Riptide and a Magnafowl at the purple and orange sections respectively.
