North Cliff

Here you find out that there is a tunnel which leads to the North, but there is no way to shift the rocks that block it.<


New Granseal

In the new town, the King will ask you to find him a way to get back to Grans Island to save Elis. Bear this in mind during your travels. Go to the Tactical Base and search the eagle shield to find the Warrior Pride (promotes Warriors to Barons). There is Cheerful Bread in the top barrel in the room left of the throne room. When you leave the castle, you can raid the houses (to find: Angel Wing, Antidote, Healing Seed and Healing Drop) and then go to meet Peter the Phoenix, who will join (but you can’t control him in battle until you’ve been to see Volcanon). When you finish here, the Minister will give you 100 Gold Coins and then you should go to Ribble.

Ribble

May the Ranger will join here. There is a piece of mithril in the center square of the grey sandpit. Here you’ll find out about the ruins under the tree, and that you need the Achilles Sword to defeat the Taros. You’ll also find out about the Caravan. There is Bright Honey in the vase in the bottom-left house. From Ribble, you should go to Polca Village, to the North. In the battle from Ribble, one of the Witches has the Power Ring, if the character who defeats her has a free item slot, she will drop it and he/she will pick it up.

Eastern Parmecia

You need to go East, across the top bridge and then West. If you go over the bottom bridge, instead of the top, you’ll find a piece of mithril, in a 2-square dent in the mountains. Fight your way through the Cavern of Darkness (inside the cave is a chest that contains Silver Tank) to reach the village.

Polca Village

Not a lot happens here the first time. There is a Protect Milk in the house which is built into the earth. Mount Volcano erupts and a blind boy, called Oddler is found and taken into care. If you go to the West of the village, you’ll see a strange looking creature who has fallen over. Go to help him and he’ll talk to you about Creed (he refers to Creed as ‘HE’). Once you’ve heard all there is to hear, go to the top right to exit the village. You will then have a mountain-side battle to Bedoe, the Bird Town.

Bedoe

In Bedoe, you’ll find out more about Creed, the ex-Greater Devil. The Quick Ring is in the vase next to the bird on the 3rd floor who says “We need a lot of hot water…” After you’ve spoken to King Bedoe (on the top floor), you must go to Mount Volcano to speak with God Volcanon. The King will tell you to get a raft, and will send Luke to escort you. When you go back through Bedoe, talk to the baby bird on the ledge outside the Kings’ Level and all the birds on the 3rd floor. When you leave the town, wander around the bushes outside on the left and the baby bird should fall on you, his mother will thank you and he will join your team later in the game. If you don’t get him to fall on you at this point, he will not join. From here you should go back to Polca.


Polca Village

When you arrive Gerhalt, the Wolf Man will join you, after which there will be a battle.

Polca Village

After the battle, go to the Mayor’s House (it’s along the top, to the left) and he’ll arrange a raft for you, if you’ll take the blind boy with you. Agree to do this and leave the town. When you leave, Luke, the Bird Man will join you (make sure you go back into the village to buy him a Long Sword). Head south along the river to get back to the area around Ribble. From this area you need to go East along the river and then when you come to the mountains, get off the raft to the south and go into the Eastern area. You’ll have a battle here, after which you can go into some ruins.

Shrine below Ribble

At the end of the battle he’ll say the tunnel can’t be used and go home. Search the chest in the top to find the Wooden Panel and Power Water in the one on the left. Take the Wooden Panel to Ribble.


Ribble

Use the Wooden Panel at the tree here. You must stand in front of the tree, and not beneath it’s branches, using the A button to select ‘use’. A tunnel will open under it, inside of which you’ll find the Achilles Sword. From here you should head down the river towards Hassan.

When you get there, you can find two pieces of mithril: one in a chest outside the fence, to the left and one in the barrels south of the town. Inside the pub, search the barrels to find a Running Pimento, then go and talk to Rohde, who’ll tag along. Take him to the west to the Taros Shrine.

Taros Shrine

After the battle you’ll get the Caravan and Rohde will join as a driver. There is a Healing Water in the chest at the Shrine.


Hassan

Rick the knight joins here. A new weapon shop has opened, but other than that there’s nothing more to do here. Stock up on healing seed here though, then head west along the dried up river in the caravan to get to a small cave.


Dwarven Mine

Search the fireplace to find the Dry Stone and talk to the dwarves on the right. Then exit the cave and cross the river at the lowest possible place, opposite the lighter patch in the forest. You should be able to get into the Elven Town without the battle first that way. Otherwise, fight the battle, then go in. Either way, you must fight the battle.


Elven Town

Lots to find here. In the top left there is a chest that contains Vigor Ball, and to the bottom right one that has mithril. There is Fairy Powder in a vase in the largest house, and if you search the top left bookshelf in the top floor of the same house, you’ll find Secret Book. If you go around the outside of the houses, under the trees, clockwise, you’ll come to the mithril chest and then go along the two-square gap in the trees to reach a secret battle, in which the Bubbling Ooze is the boss, and will keep summoning new monsters until you kill it. You’ll probably be too weak to beat it at this point in the game, but it’s worth a go – in the Japanese version the Life Ring and Right of Hope can be found, not to mention that the Blue Shaman at the end carries a Healing Rain. Now head West towards Devil’s Tail (if you didn’t fight the battle before entering the town, you must fight it now, a High Priest will drop a Shining Ball).

Oddler will hear someone crying out for help on the way to Devil’s Tail, so you follow the sound to the Harpy Pool. Elric the archer is trapped in the pool, but before you can rescue him, you have to battle the Harpies. After the battle you’ll save him and he will join. You can find a Healing Drop on the right side of the pool.

Passage to Creed’s

2nd secret passageBefore you go up the stairs, you’ll find a secret passage kinda below them and to the left. If you follow this, you’ll come to 3 chests. One of these contains a Brave Apple, the others contain Medical Herb and Angel Wing. Also, there is another secret passage, completely undetectable. At the point where there is a dark area before the 3 chests, walk down at the center (see above-right). You’ll find some mithril in a chest. You can then go up the stairs. In Devil’s Tail itself, after the next battle, you can find another mithril hidden in the 3 square indentation in the mountains in the north. In the next battle, a Dark Madam will drop the Protect Ring and a Skeleton will drop a Broad Sword.

Creed’s Mansion

When you get to the mansion, you will be miniaturized and go to Desktop Kingdom.


Desktop Kingdom

Talk to King Ponpei to be allowed onto the chess board battleground. You must fight the chess board figures to be able to see Creed. It’s quite a tough battle, but once the King is dead, the battle is won.

Creed’s Mansion

After Creed has taken you to see Evil Spirit, you can wander around his Mansion. Go to the room where Desktop Kingdom was, and search the square behind the chair to find Running Ring. Go out the door into the garden to find various items amongst the plants (Antidote & medical herb). When you are going to leave, Creed will allow you to choose one of 4 characters to take with you, either: Karna the Priest, Eric the Knight, Randolf the Warrior or Tyrin the Mage. They are all on Level 24, though Karna is usually considered the best choice (esp. when a Master Monk), and you can go back later to get the others. Oddler will decide to stay here when you leave. When you’re out of his front door, walk to the left and go through the bushes to reach a chest which contains Healing Rain. From here, go back to the Dwarven Mine, with the fairy.


Dwarven Mine

The fairy will cure the sick dwarf and in return for your help, they will give you the Cannon. Take this to New Granseal.


New Granseal

Go to the castle and talk to Astral, then talk to the man by the weapon shop. He’ll give you some dynamite which you can use with the Cannon. Before you leave, Janet the archer will join, to be with Elric. Then go up to North Cliff. One of the Dark Bishops in the next battle carries a Blizzard that you can win.

After you’ve fought the battle, use the dynamite and Cannon to clear the rocks. Rohde will then use the Cannon as a weapon, and become a Brass Gunner with the Force. Astral will drive the caravan and be your advisor. Inside the cave is a tunnel, leading to the north, and a group of monsters who want to stop you (along with a chest in the top left that contains a Fairy Tear – get it when the battle ends)…
