The introductory event for Cascade, and a great opportunity to earn a totem, red gift of dominion, and also many rewards from the very generous shop!
Overview
For those who do not have a PhD in Hero Wars Events, here is a brief:
The Essentials
You need to spend 790 energy on the third relic to reach the last chapter and earn the totem (confirmed). This requires 42$, or 34$ with 150k emeralds. See Paid Strategy and Teams
Free players cannot get the totem, but they should be able to get a red gift of dominion (confirmed). They cannot get six stars either. See Free Strategy
However you must first invest your spare energy in the first relic, before you invest in any other
The second relic is usually not profitable, I will provide guidance later
You are free to retry chapters as much as you want, since stall coins are regenerated everytime. You lose nothing, you gain nothing

Here are additional sources to reach 800 energy, besides the ones aformentioned, enough for chapter 7
150 from the battle pass
84 from three medium charges
30 from the quest to get vip points
Alternatively you can buy only two medium charges if you spend 120k emeralds, or a single medium charge if you spend 150k. Once again, if you manage to get some surplus, first invest in the top relic, before the bottom one.
Results:
First relic 2 (upgrade first)
Second relic 1
Third relic 25
Chapter VII beaten
Cascade five stars
18 medallions
With another medium charge:
First relic 4 (upgrade first)
Second relic 2
Third relic 25
