Wrapping up Garcia and The Greedy Captain

Wrapping up Garcia and The Greedy Captain

Now that we are back and ready to proceed, make sure that you bring Patty with you because you are going to need as many swords as you can muster to deal with Garcia!  Before you talk to him, which will cause you to automatically reveal you know who he really is, you need to consider strategy.  You basically have two choices -- fight him in the Village, or fight him outside of it IF you can lure his men away.

If you try to fight him outside you basically need to run away as soon as the attack starts.  But as you have Patty with you, if you can keep the enemies down to no more than two inside his hut and you stay healed, you can manage eliminating him there.  Just bear in mind that you will not only be fighting Garcia and his lot, but also the Natives, because they believe that he is Commandant Corrientes, and that you by attacking him are an enemy. 

You can avoid killing the Natives by staying inside the hut and luring the Pirates in to face them there, which really is a much more defensible position anyway.   Once you have killed ALL of the Pirates the Natives stop being aggro on you, though they are now temporarily offended with you.  Even if you are forced to kill a few of them the offended status wears off.

Whichever you choose, you need to be sure that Garcia gets dead.  Once that happens, loot all the bodies -- when you loot Garcia you will unlock the Achievement "The Hand of God" (20 GP) for completing the Greedy Captain quest line!  You will loot some key items from Garcia, as well as the Titan Artifact the Thief's Bone Hand.  Well done mates!

The Battle with Garcia and Obtaining the Last Artifact

-- To the Hidden Valley --

With Garcia dead you can now pass through the Fire Barrier, so leave the Village and cross the Lake and head for the entrance to the Hidden Valley now!   When you arrive you will be able to walk through the Barrier and enter the area beyond -- drinking the Blood and passing through completes the quest The Barrier of Flames.  You will have to defeat a Ghoul in here so do that, and then head down the path to the right and back to a doorway -- use the button to open it as that and then go through the door and follow the path to the right until you rejoin Patty which allows her to join you, since she could not pass through the Barrier herself.  Now backtrack to the door and go through it again, but head straight down the decline path ahead instead of up to the Barrier.

Following the path down you will find a Level 40 chest -- loot the Torches, Thief's Potion, Pistol Barrel and gold from it, and then take continue along to have a battle with a Grave Spider, before exiting the cave and battling a pair of Firebirds.  You are now in the Hidden Valley, so first thing you should do is tag the Treasure Map quest for here.  Check the map and it shows you the location of the 'X' so head there, battle the Termites on the way and the Panther at the site, and then dig up the chest to complete the quest and obtain 700 gold coins, a Crown, Gold Plate, and Decanter.

-- The Fire Temple --

At the foot of the hill below the Temple is a pair of Gorilla you have to battle -- after you kill them but BEFORE you go up the hill, SAVE.  Be ready to hit 'Y' because there is a trap ahead -- once you get past the trap you can climb the stairs and enter the Temple, where you will find that it has already been looted and it is empty!  Outside to the right of the entrance is a Level 40 chest with x3 Oyster Shells, a Diamond, Ruby, and some gold. 

Bit of a disappointment but there you have it.  Open your map and return to the ship, then head up to Patty and open her chat options, and tell her that you got Garcia's Artifact.  You can tell her that you have all that you need -- the Titan Artifacts -- and she suggests that you talk to her father.  Make a semi-permanent save now and remember not to write over it...
