Go down a bit and left (the passage is a bit hard to see, but saves you a bit of walking around). You'll get to a chest with an Iron don't bother equipping it. Go back right and now take the northern path. The way down is blocked by soldiers (and just leads back to town), so keep going left to pick up a Blueberry and a Silver, which raises defense by 1, so equip it. You'll see two chests with a Rose Hips and a Blackberry, and a branching path. Don't worry about assigning any SP to any skills yet. The only ones which might give you trouble are the bunnies use an Air Slash or two (once you learn it) to soften them up. You'll now encounter random battles along the way, but the enemies are easy as anything. There's an incapacitated carpenter at the entrance to the Drift, and a save point. Examine the statue at the top right to open a passage to the Salva Drift.

Once in Alen's mansion, go to the right room on the first floor. This means you can't use it any more (sigh.) Alen's mansion is locked, but Claude will blast his way through using the Phase Gun. The jewelry shop is closed, so if you need more Blueberries head to Arlia again. 8-) Listen to him after all, he's you.īack in Arlia, surprise, Rena's been captured! Before you leave, return to Rena's house and enter her room upstairs (the game lets you now) for another Blackberry (whoopee). Finally, exit the mansion and Claude will tell you to go back to Arlia. Go upstairs and into the top left room to pick up a Portrait B (don't bother trying to Use it). Go north one screen, then into the top right house, which is Alen's Mansion. It lowers defense against Elemental magic, but also raises Hit and Critical rate, and since no one casts magic quite yet, go ahead and equip it. You can also get a Heavy Ring in the shop. Don't bother buying anything at the jewelry store, but pick up a Leather Helm and Leather Greaves at the weapon shop.

The shops here have a bit more than in Arlia. Items: Heavy Ring, Portrait B, Blackberry (x2), Rose Hips, Blueberry (x2), Silver, Iron, Gold (x2), Spectacles, Ring of Happiness, Rena's HairpinĮnemies: Funnythief, Kobold, Vopalbunny, Lizardaxe, *Alen-Tax It doesn't matter, as they're pathetically easy anyway. If you stick to the road, you should get no battles at all.

You're now free to leave Arlia village (north of the left village screen). Go downstairs and the Mayor will give you a Long Sword equip it right away. Westa will come up and talk to you after another longish scene, you'll come to in Mayor Regis's house (no, not Philbin). Try to go downstairs (you won't be able to) then return to your room and wait. You can't go into Rena's room to the right. When you're done looking around, go back to Rena's house for another scene. All the other people react differently to Rena, as well. You can now actually shop at the store buy two or three Blueberries and a single Sandals. A scene will play out, after which Rena will temporarily join you. When you're done, go to the bottom left house, which is Rena's. The house at the top right has a chest with a Strawberry Jam. Go to the Equip screen and press Triangle to bring up the menu which lets you disable it. The Leather Armor will be automatically equipped on Claude if you know anything at all about RPGs, you shouldn't need this feature. Go right a screen and you'll see three chests in front of the general store, with a Leather Armor, 200 FOL, and a Resurrection Bottle. Herbs like Rose Hips and Aceras will be fairly plentiful throughout the game, but they're useless for actual HP recovery they're used in the Compounding Specialty. For starters, the house at the top left has a Rose Hips and a Blueberry upstairs. In the next screen, she'll introduce herself as Rena and will take you into Arlia Village. When you're done, the girl will run off to the left follow her. It's pathetically easy, just keep pressing L1 to beat it. Rush up to the monster (a Ghark) to start a battle. You'll regain control in Shingo Forest, and a girl is being attacked below you. Save at the save point if you want, then continue all the way north to see a scene. Items: Rose Hips, Blueberry, Aceras, Leather Armor, 200 FOL, Resurrection Bottle, Strawberry Jam, Long Sword, Communicatorįirst, go to the top left and examine the switch. Planet Milocinia/Shingo Forest/Arlia Village If you're interested at all in Pickpocketing (you should), see if Claude has the Dexterity talent. Here's a starting tip: As soon as you can, open the menu and go to Status, then press Triangle.
