 HIRO
 ����
  Hiro is an adventurous youth who is greatly influenced by his grandfather's
  love of archaeology. Legends of the Four Dragons, Dragonmater, ancient
  battles, and the Goddess Althena fascinate him. He hopes that by unlocking
  the secrets of the past, he will be able to understand the future. Although
  he's not supposed to explore the ancient ruins near his home without his
  grandfather Gwyn, Hiro and Ruby frequently break this rule. Fortunately,
  he's pretty handy with a boomerang.

 LUCIA
 �����
  Lucia is quite a mysterious young lady. She is haunted by nightmares about
  the future of LUNAR. She also seems troubled by a terrible secret she cannot
  share. Despite her strong magic skills, she seems to be a little naive when
  it comes to dealing with other people. She has trouble containing her
  emotions and looks to Hiro for guidance and protection. She is only concerned
  with Althena, and begs Hiro to help her find the Goddess. Will her mission
  cause the ruination of this world? [NOTE: Lucia cannot be controlled by the
  player ever in the game, and selects her attacks on a situational basis! The
  abilities she uses changes throughout the game; for example, she doesn't use
  Heal Litany until after Pentagulia events.]

 RONFAR
 ������
  Ronfar is rumored to have been a priest for the Goddess Althena. He possesses
  impressive healing powers. When he was unable to save his true love from an
  evil spell, he swore he would never use magic again. Now he spends most of
  his time in bars winning people's money. He also tends to make decisions on
  a throw of the dice. His dice, like his charm, seem to be magic, because they
  never let him down. He's a womanizer who's always conerned about the fairer
  ex, and they're usually all too happy to return his affections!

 JEAN
 ����
  Jean is a fan dancer at the Carnival and highly valued for her talents. She
  is a tomboy with a big-sister complex, who can be overbearing at times. She
  tends not to develop strong relationships with people. However, Jean is an
  extremely talented fighter. Those in the Carnival say she was trained as a
  child. Unfortunately, her past is going to catch up with her, and it may not
  be a pretty sight!

 LEMINA
 ������
  Lemina is the Junior Premier of the Magic Guild of Vane. Unlike her mother
  Miria, she doesn't seem to understand the legacy of the great magicians that
  inhabited this ancient city, and doesn't seem to possess any of their noble
  qualities. Instead, she seems to be a very selfish and arrogant girl who's
  only concerned with money. Yet, at times, she does let people see a softer
  side. Despite her greedy demeanor, her magic skills are extremely powerful.
  Can Hiro afford to have her in his party?

CRESTS & ELEMENTS     [CRLM]
____________________________
����������������������������
 Crests are accessories that can be equipped (2 max) on each player, giving
 them new abilities, magic, or even unique in-battle traits like reducing MP
 consumption.

 |����������������������|  Combining elemental crests will either produce a
 |        Earth         |  specialized combo of both elements or fail and make
 |                      |  a non-attribute attack. 
 |                      |
 | Fire           Water |  To figure out which elements go well with which,
 |                      |  just look at the chart. Pick any element and the
 |                      |  two farthest away will combine successfully. For
 |                      |  instance, take Fire; the two farthest away are Wind
 | Earth         Wind   |  and Water, both of which make great partners in
 |______________________|  combining. See the Crest Guide for more analysis.

STATUS ABNORMALITIES  [STTS]
____________________________
����������������������������

 In battle, a character free of disease and hurt is 'good'; a status change
 will act as a detriment to his/her battle actions, and will be displayed
 under their name in yellow lettering. Ending battle will alleviate all of
 the following symptoms, INCLUDING faint (revive with 1 HP).
  ___________ ____________________________________________ __________________
 | STATUS    | EFFECT...                                  | ITEM CURE        |

 For the other conditions that don't have a specific item tied to them, using
 a Vitality Vial or Holy Water is the only solution (besides ending battle or
 letting the status run out).

TIPS & TRICKS         [TPTR]
____________________________
����������������������������
 Here is a few tips and tricks I've picked up in my travels. Got any good ones
 of your own? Send 'em in and I may put 'em here with yer name in lights! :P

 � Abuse the Tactics screen -- it's there for a reason. The rule of thumb is
   to always spread out the 5-person party to avoid zone attacks, putting the
   strongest DEF characters towards the front (Leo & Hiro). Not only is it
   just good battle sense to do this, but it makes boss AI more manageable as
   most single-target attacks will go towards the nearest enemy repeatedly
   (usually NW-corner person).

 � Cash isn't always easy to come by, especially for those not inclined to
   level-grinding. Fess up: it's boring and a chore. For those like me, the
   best ways to make money are selling old equipment (but not accessories &
   crests) that's become obsolete, and Life Jewels in particular. Why them?
   They sell for 3000 silver and are pretty useless in the long run, healing
   only 200 to everyone. Whereas Silver Lights are superlative and worth
   pocketing, those jewels are better off being sold ASAP for some equipment.

 � Horde Silver Lights. These items which sell for 5000 silver are infinitely
   useful, especially against the storyline's final boss. Silver Lights are
   alright, but these are actually worth keeping around. A normal stockpiler
   will get about 15 if none are used, but keeping 8+ is always a good idea.

 � White Dragon Protect is a boss-breaker. It protects all allies from one
   attack of any kind, and once the attack pattern's signs are known, it's
   almost invaluable. The 50 MP tag can be taken care of in a couple ways.
   One, put the thing on Lemina who has the best MP growth of anyone; Two, buy
   lots of Star Lights and spam them. A player will probably end up doing a
   combination, honestly, but keep all options open.

 � Pay attention to the way the enemy is highlighted before an attack. If it's
   red, the attack will suck; if it's green, it's super effective. Yellow just
   means the attack is neutral and does normal damage. This should be obvious
   in terms of damage-dealing, but remember that if an enemy is 'red' against
   a status-inflicting attack, it probably isn't susceptible so don't waste
   your time.

 � Steal from enemies! Lemina's Thieves' Staff is not only useful on principle
   but also a way to get free items for safe keeping and, in the case of some
   duplicate Shiro/Chiro crests, quick cash. It's in the top floor of Vane's
   Trial Cave, so don't forget to swipe it after Lemina gives permission! I
   should also mention that in the final dungeon leaving is impossible, and
   her stealing can be a good way to collect resources (Star Lights!)

 � Erpy writes: "Some dungeons (Destiny at Dalton, Taben's Peak, Azado Tower,
   Serak Palace and Red Dragon Cave) allow you to use a statue without the
   monsters respawning. You can abuse that fact by using your most powerful
   attacks to wipe out everything and then restore your mp at the statue."

 � Erpy writes: "Certain enemies use MP for their specials (like the crystals
   in Zophar's Keep, the Crazy Crabs in Zophar's Keep, the Magicians in the
   Black Dragon Cave). If you see such an enemy preparing to use their special
   skill (like the crazy crab's hit-all skill), have Lemina hit them with magic
   stealer. She'll replenish her mp while effectively muting the enemy and also
   causing them to waste their turn trying to use a skill they have no mp for."

 � Erpy writes: "The Dark Eye enemies in Lionhead can be easily killed by
   Hiro's Concussion Sword. It's about the only thing that's effective on them,
   but it makes a decent alternative to seeking out Chiro Mongrels if you
   dislike the random appearances of the latter."

 � Erpy writes: "Althena's Sword becomes an even more kick-ass weapon when Hiro
   also has the Goddess Crest equipped. This combination gives Hiro one
   additional attack AND emulates the effect of a Healing Ring (just like in
   Lunar 1)."

 � Erpy writes: "You mentioned it's always good battle sense to spread out
   your party to avoid zone-attacks, but if the enemies in an area don't have
   zone attacks, there's actually a benefit to crowding your party together.
   Especially if the critters are faster than your party, bunching up your
   party means the enemies bunch up too. If they're fast, you can simply aim
   a Sybillium Sword or Battalion Sword at any monster and watch the attack
   hit every critter on the screen."

   Although as the game progresses more monsters have attack types other than
   single-target, this isn't such a bad idea. Crowding together helps Lemina's
   Magic Shield work on more people, and lets enemies crowd around Jean for 
   her Blue Dragon Wave attack. Both of said attacks are "special"-ranged in
   the caster's proximity, and aren't as effective on their targets unless
   friends/foes are swarming.

 � Bakkerkid writes: "I will agree that in normal battle situations the Fiend
   Ring is very, very bad and should not be equipped. However, it is a boss
   killer. It doesn't matter the boss, just put the ring on and first thing
   heal. Chances are very good that you will heal first (items usually go
   first, particularly on Jean), or you may have to actually use Chiro crests
   (combined or with Goddess Crest) to get it.  Either way, if you heal, you
   now have full HP, resistance to ALL attacks, and room for one more item to
   equip!

   In the final battle against the Star Dragon, equip the Fiend Ring and a
   Healing Ring.  Use an item first turn.  Then just sit back and do NOTHING
   the entire battle.  At lvl 63, the Dragon could not physically get Hiro's
   health to less than full - the ring even resists the non-elemental attack!"

 A note about the enemies here. Killing the Mummy that appears with Bandage
 Boys will automatically defeat all remaining enemies (this tactic will appear
 later in the game with palette-swapping also), so that's the strategy to go
 for immediately. Also, spread Gwyn and Hiro out to the back to perhaps stall
 the enemy slightly.

 Upon reaching the anterior, Gwyn will put the dragon gem in the door. Move
 Hiro to the other side and slide his loot from the ruins to the socket, which
 will open the way forward.

 This is a huge two-part dungeon, composed of a labyrinthine lower section and
 the Blue Spire the second, more straightforward stretch. There are only two
 rooms to the lower areas, but they take a little work to get through. Four
 buttons (marked "B" on map) must be pressed down to get to the exit, where
 an [Angel's Tear] is lying by an abyss. On the 2F, there are 4 antechambers
 where buttons must be pressed to power up the warp at the end. A [Star Light]
 is near there. Through the room marked 'BOSS' -- which isn't used until the
 trip back -- enter the Blue Spire Garden that contains an Althena statue and
 the start of the real ascent.

  _______________________   Collect the [Angel's Tear] at the ground-floor room
 | NEW? �����������������|  and pick either access door to the floor directly
 |      � Bomb Angel     |  above. From ever floor above, excluding the last,
 |      � Crystal Knight |  the exits are on the opposite side of the room
 |      � Magic Masque   |  (horizontally) from where Hiro starts. Along the
 |_______________________|  way are a few treasures: [Herb], [Healing Nut],
  �����������������������   [72S] and a [Star Light]. Running from the enemies
 isn't a bad strategy, as all treasures can be collected on the way down -- it
 will be 10x easier, guaranteed. Also, the "A" marks on the Blue Spire rooms
 is a stairway that couldn't be drawn correctly on the map. Oops!

 At the penultimate (7F) area when Gwyn splits up momentarily, inspect the
 northern warp tile to meet Lucia. She'll join the party but cannot have her
 actions chosen by the player. It doesn't matter, since she's so overpowered
 that any enemies will be OHKO'd if they dare stand in her way. Return back
 down.

 In the Blue Spire Garden, heal up and head into the room with the Guardian
 statue. This time, it won't sit by and watch; it breaks free and the game's
 first boss fight begins!

  This boss can wreck the Hiro and Gwyn's pretty easily, so make sure the two
  are far apart, which will avoid the zone-area attack it has. Gwyn should use
  Fractured Shield a few times to counteract the stat-buffing the boss does,
  while Hiro spams Poe Sword for better effect. Hiro will definitely be faster
  than the boss, but Gwyn undoubtedly won't; use our speedy ally to cure the
  old man when the time calls for it. Lucia will hang around the battlefield,
  but won't participate, and the boss usually leaves her alone anyway -- do
  not waste any Angel's Tears on her. Make sure that the (usual) target of
  the zone attack guards that turn to avoid souped-up damage! Otherwise, it's
  just debuffing and using Poe Sword. Even if someone is KO'd, they'll get the
  experience afterwards, remember. [Gwyn's Shattered Sword ability works great
  here as well, but he usually only gets to Lv11 unless the player spends more
  time leveling.]

 After defeating it, heal at Althena's statue and exit out of the labyrinth
 below the tower to see some scenes with Leo. Beat a trail back to Gwyn's
 pad and keep talking to Lucia until gramps suggests visiting the priest in
 Larpa called Ronfar. He'll put the boat out on the world map, so board and
 take it west to the other dock (only place to disembark). The town's just
 down the line.

 Larpa is a tiny town carved out of a mountain pass. Before locating the guy
 named Ronfar, looting the place for treasure has to happen -- RPG rule!

 |       |  _______   ________    | |    house, then talking to the man in
 |       | |       | |  |STORE|   | |    front of the mid-level eastern house
 |       | |       | |  |_   _|   | |    afterwards.
 |       |_|       |_|  |         | |
 |                      |_|�������  |  � Within the mayor's kitchen is a red
 |                     ENTER        |    [Saucepan Lid] chest. It's like a
 |__________________________________|    shield, so give it to Hiro.

 Now, to mandatory business. Talk with the sanctuary priest near the Althena
 statue to learn that Ronfar hangs out at the tavern. In the local bar, speak
 with the man by the barrels a couple times to see a cutscene...he's Ronfar!
 Agree to "roll the bones" with him, then quit and talk to Ronfar again; he'll
 invite everyone back to his house in the NW corner of town.

 Keep talking with Ronfar before and after "LM" arrives and splits, opening a
 secret passage behind the bureau (it's so obvious). He joins the part at
 Lv12 -- or maybe Hiro's current level -- with a Bandanna & Peasant Clothes,
 plus the healing magic Gwyn knew + Anger Dice & Clean Litany. Nice!

 The tiny cliff dwelling passage is monster-infested, but there should be no
 real danger with Ronfar around. Make sure to equip him with the Daggers so he
 can get a 2nd attack in! Getting through "Larpa Pass" shouldn't be much of a
 challenge. There's a [500S] chest within, right in plain sight, too.

 Jump down to the sanctuary grounds and avoid Leo's lodgings to get into the
 main statue's area for some existential detox. Rest at Ronfar's place, only
 to find Lucia gone the next morning! Collect [Lucia's Bromide 1] at this time
 and enter the man's house and speak with his wife, then the mayor. The errant
 beauty will now be found near the lower docks, and then...leaves the party.
 Oh well...

 ---

 Equip Ronfar and Hiro with some upgraded merchandise [SH01] and make for the
 nearby town of Dalton. There's a small 'dungeon' -- West Desert Pass -- in
 between, but like the East Desert Pass, it's incredibly small and straight-
 -forward. Just a [300s] chest in there. =/

 Upon entering and seeing Lucia accosted, it's time to do some burgling. The
 Althena statue at the town entrance has been vandalized and become worthless,
 so healing can only be done at the temple for a free (100s). Dang! However,
 save that cash for the free healing that is coming up in a short moment. The
 shop here is, expectedly, better than the previous ones. [SH02]

 When reaching the lowest deck and overhearing Lucia's interrogation, go over
 and rescue her. Lock the person who comes to check on her in the cell when
 he's not looking, too. After that, leaving the Destiny and town completely,
 heading north! There won't be a shop for quite awhile, so dawdle and get some
 cash for Hiro's Long Sword, too!

[Althena S]    darkened trees.

 Over at Jean's location, look for a well-hidden [Passion Fruit] chest south
 of where the star dancer's standing. When it's time to ask her questions,
 expend all 3 options and morning will come. Before going to the hot spring
 as Jean suggests -- and it is mandatory -- check the shopguy in the last car
 of the caravan [SH03] for some pick-me-up items. Nothing fancy, just medicine
 and such.

 Enter the batthouse and see some hilarity, then re-enter the boys' side and
 claim the [Iron Clogs] which lowers range to raise DEF. Back at the caravan
 an accident occurs and a huge fissure opens up in the ground. Talk with Jean
 to get the [Rope Ladder], then put it in the largest hole -- she'll join up!
 Make sure to organize the party layout on the Tactics screen and spread them
 out! After a single enemy screen, it's boss mulch-makin' time! [NOTE: If the
 player needs to level-up this can still be done in the Illusion Woods.]

 Hiro should use Poe Sword (Boomerang is practically useless here!!!) while
 Jean spams Sleep Step. She's also the fastest, meaning in a bind, she should
 be the one to give up her turn to throw some Herbs around. Ronfar should put
 Saint Litany on all controllable characters, and heal when necessary. At the
 start, it only uses its flytrap poisoning attack. The character it chooses
 to target (usually nearest) will continuously be targeted then on, meaning
 s/he can guard and get by with little agony. I recommend putting Lucia near
 it so that Saint Litany can be spread around a lot easier on the characters
 who are more useful.

 After enough damage, its midriff shell blows open and gives access to the
 attack-all technique (~40dmg) -- anticipate it with a Calm Litany. Luckily,
 its DEF is slightly reduced in this second formation, and it will alternate
 its two attacks until the 3rd form appears: a topless flower woman! This'll
 unlock a powerful single-target attack for 70+ damage. It'll alternate from
 the 1st and 3rd attacks and do a seed-spitting attack-all every 6th turn
 about. The main target from all these is the PERSON CLOSEST TO PLANTELLA,
 so as long as healing is anticipated on that person, Saint Litany will just
 heal the rest naturally. I got by with a Lv 15-16 party and only used one
 Angel's Tear, but that was after most people died -- cuttin' it pretty close,
 I should say!

 ---

 Once everyone's safe and sound, talk with Jean -- she'll join the party for
 the rest of the game! Heal up at the Althena statue and talk to the female
 near the top exit of the caravan for [Jean's Bromide 2]! On the world map,
 the path to the nearest town is accessible.

 The manor ends up being a one-screen place filled with semi-annoying foes,
 some of which have a physical-attack defense. None are that hard (except the
 Knuckle Duster who needs a Poe Sword to kill it quickly), but Suzie Deaths
 can drop 'Cute Ribbon' headgear for females, which is better than what is
 currently offered. Try to get one! [NOTE: Using Escape Litany in the manor
 brings one back to the Takkar town outskirt!] Going through once for items,
 then another time 'for real' might actually be a good idea, here.

 Before entering the red ornate-carpeted room, make sure everyone is spread
 out via the 'Tactics' menu. I recommend: Hiro in NW corner, Lucia in SW,
 and the other two in whichever vacant corner remains. Proceed...

 This boss has three forms, as its HP is whittled away. The first is the easy
 part. It alternates between a drumbeat attack on a single-target, and a
 low-damage sleep-inducing attack -- the person it targets will receive the
 attacks until s/he is defeated. For this reason, it's recommended Lucia is
 put in its path as a "meat shield" for these stupid attacks, letting Ronfar
 put Saint Litany on everyone while Jean uses her lowest-MP attack (should be
 Sleep Step) while Hiro uses Boomerang. Yes, Boomerang -- it does identical
 damage for half as much MP! With Lucia being baited into her Napalm Shot
 counterattack, the first round may go a tad bit easier. Jean'll have to use
 her turns for urgent healing, however.

 After enough damage, its arms will break off, initiating the second stretch
 of the fight. It loses its drumbeat attack but retains its sleep bubble one,
 sadly. The rocket-boost attack does about the same damage as the drumbeat.
 As before, its fixation on a single target for all its attacks can easily be
 its undoing if it's Lucia; Ronfar should anticipate healing at this point to
 let Jean deal damage. I should also note it seems a bit SLOWER, so Ronfar may
 actually go before him if he didn't in the first form.

 The third form takes place after its shoes are destroyed. Its repertoire'll
 consist of its line-attack (for about 60dmg at best) and sleep bubbles. Jean
 should give Ronfar a Star Light if needed, but it's quite possible a level
 19-20 party can get through with the strategic placement outlined here w/o
 using ANY!

 After the 'test' is completed, the hooded girl reveals herself as Lemina Ausa
 from Vane's Magic Guild, joining the party (at party average level). Exit out
 the backdoor, see some magic carpet skills, and heal up at the Althena statue
 below. Need items? Enter Takkar's north side and a merchant will be locked
 out as well, selling stuff. It's the same stuff as before, so if y'stocked up
 it's useless. Westward....

 bet cannot be done -- Ruby prevents it!). 

 In the Carnival's second screen, visit the better of the two shops [SH08]
 for all of Nota's inventory re-offered. An [Angel's Tear] is in the final

 The above letter streams (ex: AAAAA) represent the paths of the movable

 maze, on either side of the room, inside the antechambers. Exit's in the
 south. From there, the next room has two [Star Light]s in the antechambers,
 with a [Flame Staff] in plain sight within the maze. Pretty simple for a 2-

 door to get onto the world map again.

 Now that Leo's off the trail, Nota is accessible. Revisit!

 A few notes before continuing. There is no Althena statue on this mountain,
 but there will be automatic healing before the final boss -- that should be
 at least a little load off one's mind (I know it was to me!). As for the
 monsters, all are weak to fire magic, which means Burning Rain will be a boon
 to spam. Of course, running away like a ninny works when the MP diminishes...
 This is especially useful against Razor Wolf enemies' spinning attack-all
 technique, which'll take off about 40dmg to everyone. Either Albino Baboon
 or Razor Wolf enemies drop a Fur Robe, but since they're near inseperable,
 I haven't found out which is which. Food for thought!

 Zulan Mountain is composed of three areas. It seems simple, but there's so
 much sections blocked off and backtracking required that the player'll end
 up slightly annoyed at its unnecessary length. But, hey, that's RPGs for ya!
 The first area -- Zulan Mountain 3's SW corner -- is easy, as there are no
 treasures and the way to the "A" entrance is straightforward. Ruby will melt
 the ice-capped doorway, and will repeat this as time goes on. Beware: foes
 may lurk behind false entrances! [NOTE: These are not marked on the map.]

 Inside, grab the [2000s] and [Healing Nut], making way outside again. Ignore
 the nearest ice-over entrance and make for the other where "C" is marked on
 map. There will be a [Power Crest] en route to the blizzarding outdoors, and
 a [Water Staff] sitting in a snowbank once there. Ignore the nearest icy
 door and continue west and north to the stairway, where the "E" entrance is
 located. Thre's a short final cavern with a [Barrier Ring], and a half-hidden
 [Phoenix Ring] along the southern wall, before braving the winds and getting
 to the "END"-marked path on the map. Save at this time and mosey inside.

 After some scenes, Ruby and Hiro must gather the unconscious party members.
 Lucia will be back, also, and heals everyone completely. DO NOT SAVE HERE!
 There are no regular enemies to fight, and the boss'll have y'cornered, as
 he's just up the hill. Positioning tactics are recommended as such:

 Hiro   - NW corner
 Jean   - NE corner
 Lucia  - Middle
 Lemina - SE corner
 Ronfar - SW corner

 Jean and Lemina can be toggled around whichever back-row corner, naturally,
 but that's my setup. I suppose Lucia and Ronfar could switch as well (to bait
 boss into a Napalm Shot counterattack), but Lucia will now use healing and
 supportive magic on her friends now, not just herself! Oh what a soul search
 will do... Anyway, fatty's up the summit.

 ________________________ ___________ ____________ ______________
| BOSS: Missing Link     | HP: ~3000 | EXP: 2600  | SILVER: ---- |
|������������������������ ����������� ������������|�������������� ������������|
| � Physical damage (One)                         | Beating chest with arms   |
| � Water damage (All)                            | Ears pointed, mouth agape |
| � Nullifies all damage with tornado (Self)      | Sucking in snowy air      |
|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 This boss should be a piece of cake once his pattern is learned. If the above
 recommendation was situated as so, the single-target physical attack will be
 on Hiro's NW position about 99% of the time. Since he'll have the most HP at
 any given time, that's for the best...not to mention the others will regain
 HP with Saint Litany! The tornado attack it uses nullifies all damage for one
 round, so use that one for healing, boosting ATK, and replenishing MP with
 items -- it uses it instantaneously when the turn occurs, so not even Jean's
 fleet-footedness can do anything about it. It happens every five turns about,
 plus two more where it's protected, so there's ample time for recuperation.

 Lucia will use Napalm Shot every turn if her healing services aren't needed,
 which is finally some good AI going her way. Jean's lightning speed should
 be used to supply quick healing; otherwise, use her lowest-MP move which'll
 do about 60-70dmg if upgraded. Lemina should stick with Flame Shot _EVERY_
 turn, unless you can't resist using Power Flame on Hiro. Speaking of which,
 he should be using Poe Sword every (applicable) turn. Ronfar should sling
 Saint Litany on everyone, while using Calm Litany when the avalanche attack
 is upcoming. He'll be slower than the boss at Lv22 but faster at Lv23, for
 reference -- pre-empt if needed.

 ---

 Once Missing Link has been purposely lost, inspect Maria and return to Zulan
 as the blizzard-bashin' heroes. Try to leave the mayor's house for some nice
 heartwarming scenes about Maria and her child...and her amnesia. Leaving the
 town via the SW exit is now possible. The port city of Meribia will be in
 plain view south of the pass.

 Ramus' shop after getting Lemina's other bromide. This is missable too!

 � [Jessica's Bromide] can be obtained from some philosopher at the local bar;
   he's near the upper-left counter.

 Now, for the real stuff. Master Lunn runs the town and the dojo, and Jean's
 tagged along with the party because of him. Go there to see some scenes and
 he'll task everyone with getting rid of Taben's Peak's pesky bandits. There
 is an [Earth Crest] in the trainees' quarters and a useless [Dagger] in the
 first-floor armory.

 Taben's Peak is just up the road, that weird twisted mountain to the NE. Get
 properly equipped in Meribia [SH10], and sell off that junky Life Jewel for
 extra cash if needed. Also notable is that this is the first town that sells
 Star Lights. Kinda expensive now, but they won't be needed now anyway -- no
 boss fight lurks in the distant dungeon.

 Tormentors are weak to fire, and their most powerful attack comes from their
 head-shooter tech -- it occurs when their wheels aren't blazing. Dream Leech
 girls are weak to fire and can drain lots of MP from their target; watch out
 for Lemina! Octo Plants are also weak to ice and are very slow, so they're
 not much to worry about in the long run.

                   |_____|         to the SW. Flip the "A" switch and continue
                                   north to the [Steel Shield] chest -- the B
 switch is also found there, and allows further passage north. The place gets
 a bit maze-like from now on, but should be traversable with the ASCII map.

 A [Dew Ring] is in a dead-end room, while a [Quake Staff] is in the lengthy
 passage of similar uselessness west of there. The [Soul Bandanna] chest is
 near the "C" switch, which allows Hiro to take a small shortcut later on. It
 is the "D" switch that allows access to the [Silver Light] chest, though --
 make sure to get that sucker!

 A [Steel Helm] is found near there, as well as the "E" chest which allows one
 to get the [Silk Dress] on an isolated part of the corridor later. Before
 that, though, is a [Healing Nut] near the waterside. Follow north to the two
 last treasures, two [Star Light]s! At this point, flip the "F" switch -- it
 lowers a bridge near the 1st item, for quick healing back in Meribia. Don't
 worry, the dungeon's bridges don't reset (but the enemies will).

 Down the stairway marked 'Exit', it's a mid-boss battle: 4 Assassins. Ronfar
 should anticipate healing, while Hiro spams Poe Sword and Jean attacks. Dear
 Lemina should use the most powerful ice-element magic. The battle can be hard,
 so killing one at a time is wise. Chances are they'll be faster than Jean at
 Lv25, so try to poison them for better effect (+55 damage!). [1280exp, 600s]
 An Angel's Tear may be dropped also.

 ---

 Afterwards, a [Mask] is collected and the Meribia events are finished. Return
 to Taben's Peak and speak with Nall, who'll give the [White Dragon Wings] as
 a present. This is basically an infinite 'Dragonfly Wing' item, allowing one
 to escape to the beginning of the dungeon. It doesn't work in all places, but
 should serve the party well 'nough. Lucia joins the party on the balcony, and
 then it's off to Vane -- the barricade has been removed.

|  TO SHRINE          |  The port town of Azado will be a larger section, for
|          |          |  reasons that will be evident in a few tics. But, like
|  _ _____|�|_____ _  |  always, robbing townsfolk blind comes first.

| |                 | |  That's all for a moment. The shops nearby have [SH11]
| | |�����| |�����| | |  better inventory than Vane, too. Precedence should be
| | |__1__| |__ __| | |  given to Hiro and Ronfar, since they'll see more use

|  �������|_|�������  |  Nuts for good measure, too -- sell the Life Jewel if
|_____________________|  needed.

 As Ronfar said when he entered town, his acquaintance can hook 'em up with a
 boat. Visit the weird shrine on the north part of town and talk with Jamil, 
 then visit the red-roofed house where Balse lives. This time, it'll be open.
 When ready, accept his invitation to pass the time 'til nightfall. A ship is
 berthed at west harbor, so get on it for some scenes. White Knight Leo will
 temporarily join the party, which will now consist of him, Hiro, and Ronfar.
 He joins at Lv35 always with Dyne's Sword and Platinum Shield/Helm/Armor.

 ---

 There will be Inferno Ghouls around the streets now, but Leo will be able to
 completely massacre them with Grizzle Blade. The allies -- probably in the
 mid-20s -- won't fare as well, and may die. Backtrack to the Althena statue
 if needed. Lots of free EXP here with Leo, so soak it up. Near Balse's house
 there is another scene; after, make way through the barbecue to the temple.
 The shops are still open somehow if y'need to stockpile. Forcefully enter the
 northern shrine, and the Goddess Image (upper floors) will be available for
 explorations. Note there isn't healing at the top, but the base floor has an
 Althena statue...for 100s. =/

 |__________________|  Enemies are usually easy to run away from, and I've no
                       idea why this is. Either way, conserve MP on the ascent!

 Once up to the 9F, collect the [Star Light] chest and take the "I" stairway
 back down to the 3F, where a [Healing Crest] and [Healing Ring] are. The ring
 is GREAT and gives extra HP each turn, and will STACK with Saint Litany! Very
 nice. Back on the 9F, take the "O" stairway to the 11F where the final item,
 a [Silver Light] is. Exit onto the statue's outer hands, heal up and save,
 and approach the flame for a boss fight. Make sure everyone is spaced out as
 per the Tactics menu.

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 This boss fight might be the easiest so far...if Hiro and Ronfar had their
 equipment properly updated, as directed. The tactics are quite easy, though:
 Hiro and Leo use Poe sword and Flash Blade (respectively), while Ronfar uses
 healing magic based on the boss' tactics. At Lv27, our gamblin' priest was
 still slower than the boss, so healing should be anticipated. The physical
 wing projectile attack it uses goes off first no matter the speed, and can
 do about 150+ damage. If Hiro is nearest to the boss (NW corner of Tactics
 screen as per usual), he'll be the main person attacked. If this happens,
 he should have the Healing Ring for extra help. It may be a little slower
 going, but I recommend having Hiro defend every time the physical attack is
 around; Leo should never let up with Flash Blades, since he won't be attacked
 by anything other than the raining fire attack. Speaking of which, the fiery
 rain and zone-attack animations that tip the player off to what attack will
 be used are practically identical. Know that the raining fire attack ALWAYS
 follows the physical attack.

 ---

 Afterwards, use Escape Litany and return to the docked Dragonship. Talk with
 Lucia on the upper deck (y'should know the layout by now) and that's all!

 Disembark and talk with the party members -- Ronfar, Jean, and Lemina will go
 to the see the respective Masters and leave the party for awhile. Hiro's duty
 is to escort Lucia to Althena. There are no shops in town whatsoever, and
 the layout is beyond simplistic -- just head to the northernmost building.
 For some fun, though, head to either of the four towers (except NE) to have
 some eavesdropping fun on the other allies' conversations.

 Anywho, Leo will be on the shrine's 2F and leads the trio to see Althena. A
 few dialogues later and Hiro will be up against a boss by himself, although
 he cannot win so there's no strategy 'cept to fail! He'll then be in the top
 of the White Tower in the NE part of Pentagulia. Leo will join the party as
 'Mystere'. When an enemy is faced, use Poe Sword/Flash Blade -- Grizzle Blade
 probably won't OHKO anyone. Oh, and spread the two fighters out in the back
 row for good measure (NE, SE corners).

|��������������������|  The descent from the White Tower results in another
| 01: Healing Ring   |  [Healing Ring], and a [Platinum Sword] / [Life Jewel]
| 02: Platinum Sword |  combo. At the very bottom is Pentagulia's underground,
| 03: Life Jewel     |  a corridor that connects to the other three towers. It
| 04: Hellfire Staff |  would be in the player's best interest to assault the
| 05: Silver Light   |  Red Tower, since that's where our healer's being kept
| 06: Jewel Gauntlet |  under lock and key. A [Hellfire Staff]-[Silver Light]
| 07: Ritual Hairpin |  duo is there.
| 08: Jewel Gauntlet |
| 09: Ritual Hairpin |  After that, rescue Jean and Lemina in whatever order.
|____________________|  Each path results in a [Jewel Gauntlet] and [Ritual
                        Hairpin]. Make sure to equip them on the femmes! When
 the party is reunited fully, Mystere leaves the party to pursue some other
 stuff...and then joins as Leo! What a goofball...

 The downside to going up the towers in secret is that Escape Litany doesn't
 work, so one has to trek back downwards. All those enemies y'might have run
 away from are going to be keeping an eye out. Saving at every floor helps a
 bit. Anyway, the secret passage is behind the underground corridor's Althena
 statue. Inspect it from the front to open, watch some scenes, and continue
 down to Lucia's spot via the door in Althena's room. Leo leaves the party...
 again. Follow the blue-haired lass up to the 2F balcony where a secret tower
 will be uncovered. Follow her into the lake, watch some scenes.

 ---

 ...and everyone ends up at Taben's Peak! Talk with Nall then everyone else;
 the Dragonship will be in the vicinity of Vane all of a sudden. Since Leo's
 carrying the White Dragon Aura, he'll need to cough it up. Visit the ship
 and Leo will have a mano-e-mano fight with Hiro. It's not very hard to win --
 just spam Poe Sword, have a Healing Ring equipped, and some Healing Nuts on-
 -hand. He will fully heal himself once, too, but it shouldn't affect much.
 [5000 EXP awarded]. For winning, the [White Dragon Aura] is received.

 Drive the Destiny to Meribia and enter the water, then head in a westernly
 direction to the ice-capped land of permafrost. The White Dragon Cave will be
 up a meandering path there. Make sure to stock up on items before entering!

 |________________________________________________|__________________________|

 This dungeon can be a bit of an annoyance, although it is great for stealing
 Shiro/Chiro Crests from the respective mongrels. That combination will affix
 a user's range at 200 which is helpful for low-range attackers like Ronfar.
 However, the best would be two Chiro Chests which allow the user attack
 initiative, i.e. they go first no matter their SPD! Getting them is slightly
 annoying though, as Chiro Mongrels flee battle on 1-2 turns in battle and,
 even if the allies flee battle, it disappears from that monster formation!
 Kinda annoying, which is why it's best to steal from the one on the first
 floor repeatedly, leave the cave, repeat. If everyone has 2 Chiro Crests,
 they'll always go before the enemy; there's no priority besides actual SPD
 within the ally ranks. ^___^

 BTW, the part about Nall directing the party to find "four chests" is a
 leftover objective from a previous Lunar EB game; this time, there's no
 such thing to worry about.

 The first screen is one of the biggest. Continue along the path until getting
 to a two-tier area with ladders. Stick with the upper rim and continue south
 to a dead-end [Star Light] chest. Enter the lower 'ice rink' via the ladder,
 then find the next ladder, weaving along the to the west. A [Snake Ring] that
 increases evasion likelihood is in a chest there. From there, continue south
 along the upper ridge, moving east to the "A" stairway. This leads to the B2
 floor, which is much simpler -- an [Endurance Ring] is in the NW area, while
 the "B" stairway exit is found in the southern dead-end. Easy-peasy.

 The B3 area blocks Hiro in initially with ice crystals, but the enemies here
 will throw projectiles when they don't have access to their prey -- this will
 shatter the obstruction. This same tactic must be taken to get the chests in
 the SW 'crystal' fence, but the [Chiro Crest] and [Wind Crest] are worth it.
 "C" exit is to the north. The next area (B4) is similar in that there is one
 easy place with a bunch of enemies near the [Angel Ring] chest, also behind
 a crystalline cage. And again, this same tactic is used on B5 where an [Ice
 Staff] can be liberated.

 On the lowest floor, collect the [Vitality Vial] and heal up with Healing
 Nuts and, if necessary, Star Lights. Find the weird creature blocking the
 entryway and...

 To start, this is the first battle where a boss will change the field to suit
 itself. After the first attack, there will be a teardrop symbol in the south-
 -east corner, denoting water moves will be powered up more than normal. This
 effect will stay forever unless Lemina uses Erase Magic to neutralize it; she
 learns that skill at Lv32. As an example, its first attack should do around
 70-80 damage to everyone, but with the field effect used, it does about forty
 extra damage -- not good! It's possible to get through the battle without
 neutralizing the effect, but Ronfar'll have to work extra hard while Jean
 keeps his MP brimming.

 Hiro should use Poe Sword every turn, since that's the most damaging attack
 one currently has. Jean should attack (her skills suck in these cases) while
 the player uses her speed to item heal when needed. Ronfar should anticipate
 healing if he's Lv29 or below since he'll be slower than the boss (at least
 without aid of crests). Saint Litany will help also, but should only be cast
 when the boss self-buffs or uses its single-target attack. Lemina should spam
 Flame Shot normally, and use Dispel Magic & Erase Magic to get rid of White
 Fiend's power-ups. Lucia will go at her own pace, equal parts attacker and
 nurse. If the usual "spread out to the corners" tactic is taken, make sure
 Lucia is in the middle to draw its single-target attack to her.

 The boss' pattern is usually as follows: non-elem field-changer, stat-buff,
 water-damage on all, water-damage on one, water-damage on all, repeat. This
 means the pattern ends with two attack-alls in a row! It may be wise to have
 some people defend, while others item heal or anticipate such. This twofer
 can really ruin a good strategy, so preparation...or at least give Ronfar's
 SPD a boost with a crest setup and have him use Recovery Coin (learn: Lv30).
 Also, its sleep-inducing attack will always act first, unless the double
 Chiro crest setup is on a character.

 ---

 Afterwards, talk with Nall and get the [White Dragon Crest]. This will give
 every member of the party protection from one magic attack and, surprise
 surprise, it will be infinitely useful on coming bosses. From now on, having
 a nice supply of Star Lights to suit the huge 50 MP cost should be nice to
 have. DO NOT WASTE SILVER LIGHTS IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO, since those should all
 be saved for much later. Give Jean the White Dragon Crest since her speed'll
 act as its own type of protection.

 Nall will melt the icebergs nearby and after getting back to the Dragonship,
 access to the town of Horam in the SW will be possible!

                        First, she will gain the Blue Dragon Palm and Dopple
 Dance abilities, and use claws (like a monk); this means she cannot equip any
 fans. Her other equipment besides the [Iron Claw] will be a [Hawk Armlet],
 [Gold Hairpin], and [Hawk Wrap]! Jean is now a force to be reckoned with on
 the battlefield. Oh, and she gains an extra attack in battle. The dojo master
 will bestow an [Invitation] that gives access to the Zen Dojo in the south.
 Some [Rubber Boots] can be found in a dojo storage room, also.

 Now, for the upcoming tournament, only Jean, Ronfar, and Hiro will fight, so
 those three should have priority when it comes to updating equipment. Our
 martial artist will already have optimum equipment, however. Find the Zen
 Dojo by taking the Destiny south...quite simple and obvious, really. 

 ZEN DOJO
 ��������
 The tournament will begin here by talking with the proctor near the ring. A
 man here has his own item shop [SH13] -- if y'don't have any Healing Nuts,
 get some. There isn't a real boss fight until after winning, so I'll give a
 short overview of the build-up matches. Note that the player can leave the
 area whenever s/he wishes without suffering any penalties whatsoever.

 ROUND 1: There are three 'Wolf Guard' enemies to defeat. No strategy needed,
          really, since they do double-digit damage and one Poe Sword + Blue
          Dragon Palm should be able to fell 'em. Kinda boring. [819 EXP]

 ROUND 2: This time, three 'Flash Ninja' to defeat. Their attack can inflict
          poison and they attack twice each, as well as having about twice as
          much HP as the Wolf Guard enemies. Gang up on one and anticipate
          healing with Ronfar, if possible -- he IS the weakest link and may
          be KO'd as an easy target. [1017 EXP].

 ROUND 3: Final round: 3 Shadow Assassins. They have about 1000 HP each,
          attack three times, and can be pretty hard. Gang up on them one at
          a time (try to get multiple ones with Battalion Sword, etc.) while
          Ronfar anticipates healing. If y'get lucky, Ronfar may not die; if
          he does, things can get hectic. Their attacks usually do (apx.) 100
          per assault, even with their charging technique. [1689 EXP].

 With the tournament victory grasped, talk with Lunn near his lame acolytes
 and a boss battle will begin once Jean agrees to the terms of battle.

 ________________________ ___________ ____________ ______________
| BOSS: Master Lunn      | HP: ~3000 | EXP: 8800  | SILVER: ---- |
|������������������������ ����������� ������������|�������������� ������������|
| � Physical damage (One) - about 60-70 damage    | Crouching, leg extended   |
| � Physical damage (One) - About 100 damage      | Standing, palms extended  |
| � Heals self for about 375 HP + DEF Up          | Standing, arms at side    |
| � Physical damage, 2-hit (One) - about 75 total | Standing, arms folded     |
|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 Jean will fight this battle alone, so she should have a Healing Ring and a
 DEF-increasing/Angel Ring accessory for good measure. Healing Nuts should be
 tucked away in the inventory, too, since that's the only way Jean will get
 anything done, really.

 The battle is quite simple. Lunn's attacks are all easily stomached, his
 pattern is easy to learn, and Jean will probably be faster than him. If she
 isn't, equip 2 Chiro Crests or level up a smidge. His healing and DEF-up tech
 is a bit annoying, but overall, it isn't a huge obstacle. Having at least one
 Star Light in the inventory will help, since that's all Jean'll probably need
 when she spams Blue Dragon Palm the entire battle. Of course, it's plausible
 that she doesn't need to heal her MP whatsoever (at Lv33 at least). [Erpy has
 written and informed me that Lunn's most powerful attack can be completely
 avoided by defending and moving up/down out of range, since it's a line-type
 attack!]

 ---

 The [Blue Dragon Aura] is obtained from the humbled Lunn, and it's now time
 to take the Blue Dragon Cave for all its worth. It can be found upriver, a
 little to the east. Make sure to equip all the other allies properly before
 committing!

 This place has more levels, but some are very brief, so overall, it's about
 the same proceeding as the White Dragon Cave. Water Elementals can inflict
 Mute with their regular attacks, while Doom Riggers summon Scurvy Slugs and
 then immediately leave. Don't bother attacking them (Riggers) unless Lemina
 has the 2 Chiro Crests, since it will probably flee before then. For one
 battle with a Doom Rigger: 3511 EXP + 1050s + Holy Water. Not bad! Aqua
 Assassins' best trait is that their attacks are all 'Line' type.

 Upon entering the 2nd screen, use the stepping stone blocks to get near the
 [Hurricane Staff] chest and the "B" stairway. A [Holy Water] will be near an
 Aqua Assassin immediately within sight. The 4th screen's [Anti-Magic Ring] is
 easy to find as well. In the fifth screen, go south until a glimmer of red by
 the wall reveals a [Revenge Crest]. The description is a little crappy, but
 know that it makes someone hit by physical attacks counter more than naught.
 Through the "E" stairway, another [Angel Ring] is nearby, while the [Plasma
 Ring] near the "F" stairway reduces water damage. A [Gold Hairpin] is en
 route to the "G" stairway.

 Collect the [Star Light] and make sure everyone is spread out in the Tactics
 menu. That Plasma Ring collected a moment ago should go on the person with
 the worst MDF, probably Jean, as it makes all attacks to someone do laughable
 double-digit damage.

 Like the previous fake dragon boss, this one will also change the field to a
 water-supportive one. If Lemina gets 2 Chiro Crests, she can be way better at
 dealing with its annoyances. Its muting ability can be lured to the ally at
 the NW corner (Hiro for me), so make sure s/he has the mute-proof accessory.
 All its other attacks are run of the mill, although the massive healing tech
 may delay its demise awhile. Its pattern: attack all + field change, mute
 zone attack, whirlpool attack-all, mute zone attack, healing ability, repeat.

 There are two things that make this battle easy. The first is Lemina having
 2 Chiro Crests (always acts first) and letting her stat buff or destroy any
 field effects. The second is Ronfar's Tranquil Litany ability which should
 smooth over any damage during the round -- he learns it at Lv34.

 Tactics-wise, Hiro should use Poe Sword every round. Jean's geared to spam
 Blue Dragon Palm or item-heal if required. Lemina should use Flame Shot and
 Erase Magic; the latter should be anticipated if she doesn't have 2 Chiro
 Crests. Ronfar should try to get Saint Litany on everyone while Tranquil
 Litany-ing after attack-all abilities.

 ---

 After deep-sixing the sea dragon, head into the crystal room and shatter the
 thing. The [Blue Dragon Crest] is received and will fully heal everyone...uh,
 that's not that good, I guess, given the MP requirement. Still, hold onto it.
 The abyss near the cave will have cleared up and passage downriver to where
 the Black Dragon lies is possible.

 Before continuing, it's possible to level-up a bit on Doom Riggers if Lemina
 gets 2 Chiro Crests. This is the first GREAT spot to do so, and it will help
 a bit later on. Anyway, downriver Neo-Vane will make the Dragonship spaz out,
 and it can't be used for awhile. Enter the nearby mines...

 There are a bunch of Boomba types (like goomba?) that mainly use fire-element
 suicide attacks and regular physical attacks. Shouldn't be too time-wasting,
 especially since the smaller ones dash forward in a straight line and evasion
 can be done by side-stepping. They're all weak to ice-elemental attacks, of
 course.

 A relatively small place to be sure, but still full of good items. There's a
 [Silver Light] and [Passion Fruit] on the first screen, leading up to the "A"
 stairway.  Once there, the [Fresh Ring] and [Angel's Tear] items are all near
 the "B" stairway in the eastern section. The 3rd screen is remarkably easy,
 with a [Rusty Dagger] and [Star Light] to get, the latter in an isolated
 crossroad section. Finally, [92s] and an [Earth Ring] on the last floor. The
 Black Dragon Cave entrance is found here in the NE, but cannot be opened. Go
 south into town.

 ---

 Zaback itself is rather small, just a few shops [SH14] and houses. A couple
 chests -- [Peasant Clothes], [Passion Fruit], [Life Jewel] -- can be found in
 and around town. To reach Neo-Vane, take the westernmost house which contains
 a teleportation grid.

 Upon entering, Ronfar and Jean disappear into a pit because they can't use
 magic. Don't worry about it, though. Neo-Vane is illustrious, and has lots of
 (snooty) people to talk to. A [Luck Ring] is in the SE apartment, a [Life
 Jewel] in the armory's back room, and an [Herb] in the item shop's sideroom.
 Speaking of such, the shops here [SH16] have inventories geared towards Hiro
 and Lemina, whereas the Zaback ones were slanted toward the others.

 Now, onto the dungeon part. The main guild entrance is locked (urgh!) so the
 detour into the Neo-Vane Trial Cave must be taken. It's located behind the
 guild building.

 The [Healing Ring] should be the first item collected on the entrance screen,
 with only a few Rock Biters to fight with. The 2nd area is enemy-free and
 has Ronfar and Jean to be rescued from their back-breaking mine work. 

 With them in tow, consider returning to Neo-Vane and outfitting them. Mosey
 into the rather straightforward 3rd screen for a [Clear Ring]! This stops a
 bunch of status effects and should be on Hiro for obvious reasons. Exit's in
 the NE area. The 4th screen's items are all situated toward the SW exit, and
 are an [Earth Staff] and [Star Light]. In the last screen, go SE to the fifth
 and last chest, a [Silver Light]. It may help in the very near future. There
 is a long way to the exit, a magician's door that they all enter. Heal up at
 the Althena statue and confront Borgan in his hall. [NOTE: Leaving becomes
 impossible once Borgan is approached, so _don't_ save!] Oh, and get th
 [Silver Light] near the entrance beforehand if needed.

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 Borgan opens the battle by stealing MP from everyone, so have Jean use the
 White Dragon Crest to protect against it. She should be faster than him by
 Lv36. In fact, everyone should be. His most damaging attack is the damage-all
 magic one, but the most annoying is his barrier that protects him from any
 kind of damage! It seems to take 5-6 hits of any kind to shatter it.

 Hiro should use Poe Sword every turn, Jean should spam Blue Dragon Palm and
 White Dragon Protect when needed. If Lemina got 2 Chiro Crests, she should
 be the ATK-buffer and item-healer, especially giving Star Lights to Jean as
 she won't have enough MP for 3 WDPs for awhile. Ronfar, of course, should be
 using Tranquil Litany (or White Dragon Protect) when the pattern requires it.
 All in all, tactical WDPs will really make this battle simple. From what I've
 heard, Borgan's power was actually nerfed in comparison to his Sega Saturn
 days.

 ---

 Borgan, the fatty that he is, gets the [Black Dragon Aura] stolen from him.
 On the 2F, get the [Red Pajamas] chest by the bed, and on the 3F, eventually
 a [Cave Key]. This allows passage into the Black Dragon Cave within Zaback
 Mines.

 If you don't know where the entrance to the cave is within the Zaback Mines,
 simply enter from town and make way to the NE corner on that same screen. It
 ain't that hard, but if y'need, view the mines' map in the appropriate area.

 A note about the Zombies: they're weak to physical attacks. That means if
 Hiro and Jean have enough SPD, they can take out all five without receiving
 any repercussions. Those enemies can do about 100 damage each, so this isn't
 a poor alternative to fleeing (which fails a lot here).

 Also cool: Star Lights can be stolen/dropped from Chaos Fiends.

 Before continuing, I should note that if you thought the White Dragon Protect
 strategy was lame or cheap, it's going to be VERY useful in the coming boss
 fight. I actually bought about 15 Star Lights the first time I played to get
 prepared, but only used six -- I recommend at least that many. Just sell some
 old crap or steal Chiro Crests and pawn 'em (1000s/per). Anyway...

 First screen has a [Healing Nut] and [Lightning Staff] in some tiny dead-end
 alleys en route to the eastern exit. The [Angel Ring] and [Force Ring] are
 in-between some enemies right off the main path. The semi-useful [Star Dagger]
 can be found nearby, too. In the 3rd area, is [312g] and a [Stardust Ring].
 Two notes about this floor: poison swamp areas will take off 1 HP each time
 the screen flashes, on everyone; second, the Stardust Ring is semi-hidden, so
 use the map wisely! Said ring will recover MP in battle, so don't miss it.

 The fifth screen has an [Angel's Tear], leading back to the fourth screen's
 main area. Contained herein are a [Hunter Crest] and [Passion Fruit], both
 pretty awesome. On the floor where the boss is located, a [Star Light] can be
 claimed. When ready to undertake the most annoying of the fiends, jump right
 in...
 ________________________ ___________ ____________ ______________
| BOSS: Black Fiend      | HP: ~4000 | EXP: 24200 | SILVER: ---- |
|������������������������ ����������� ������������|�������������� ������������|
| � Lowers MP (All)                               | Standing there, bobbing   |
| � Thunder-element damage (Zone, Large)          | Wings standing upright    |
| � Physical damage (All) + %Paralysis            | Head waving, wings alight |
| � Non-elemental damage (One) + %Sleep           | Wings erect, head coiled  |
|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 So why is the Black Fiend so annoying? Simple: physical attacks completely
 suck against it. That means that Lemina is going to be the main attacker in
 this one -- all the reason more to have 2 Chiro Crests. Its MP-reducing
 attack is annoying, but not nearly as much as its paralysis-inflicting one
 only a short ways down the attack pattern. THAT is the one that should be
 WDP'd as it'll screw up just about any strategy. Its single-target attack
 can usually be drawn to Lucia if she's placed in the middle of the Tactics
 screen. [NOTE: MP-lowering tech goes first regardless of SPD, except where
 2 Chiro Crests are concerned; also, defending does not reduce effect]

 Hiro should use Cross-Boomerang (which oddly the boss is only neutral to),
 and it's good if he has the Snake & Revenge Crests on, since his ATK will
 raise on its own every turn. Lemina should spam Ice Arrows every single turn.
 Jean should be the White Dragon Protect-or, Ronfar the Saint/Tranquil Litany
 guy. This is definitely an uphill battle which is why I suggested toting some
 Star Lights into battle. Also equip any Healing Rings to take the burden off
 Ronfar's MP. Also, equipping elemental crests and having the boys do some of
 the magic attacking can work out too, especially for Hiro.

 ---

 After unlocking the encaged ancient, the [Black Dragon Crest] is received.
 Neo-Vane's power over the Dragonship will have vanished now, so backtrack
 through the Zaback Mines to get to it. There won't be any upgraded armories
 for awhile, so whatever's in Neo-Vane and Zaback constitutes the par.

 The next location downriver and east into the East Katarina Zone. There's a
 small town near there, as well as quick passage into the river near Dalton
 and Azado.

 Serak Palace is only three floors but it can be very confusing just the same.
 The first floor has no enemies, and a cleansing candidate will block the door
 to Mauri. Take the "A" path to the 2F and get the [Holy Hairpin] and [Psycho
 Gauntlet] items, then make for the "C" stairway. On the 3F, collect both the
 [Master Helm] and [Miracle Clothes] before going on the "E" warp, arriving by
 a [Tiger Wrap] container. Go downstairs via the "F" stairway and find just 1
 [Life Jewel]. Downstairs even further, a [Star Light]!

 Now, backtrack in your preferred fashion (Escape Litany?) and take the "B"
 stairway on the 2F. After descending the "H" staircase, collect the [Life
 Jewel] and [Silver Light]. From there, continue along the "I" and "J" warps
 to find the door leading to [Althena's Aura]. Use Escape Litany and Mauri's
 chamber will be unbarred. If you're a money-grubber like me and don't want to
 pay 666s for healing, return to Raculi and do so. Bring a bunch of Healing
 Nuts -- you'll see why in a sec.

 Talk with Mauri and it's MURDERFACE TIME AHAHA!

 _______________________ ____________ ____________ ______________
| BOSS: Mauri's Id [6]  | HP: ~10000 | EXP: 29430 | SILVER: ---- |

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 Ronfar will not be participating in this battle, and instead has a storyline
 purpose inside of Mauri's subconsciousness. When he talks to one of the fake
 Mauris and disagrees with it, it makes one of the Hydra's heads in battle go
 aflame -- this means it's vulnerable to damage and should be quickly cut off!
 Each head has approximately 2000 HP, which should be about two rounds worth
 of damage since Leo is assisting in battle. Since it's fire-elemental, using
 any fire-reduction accessories will be very wise.

 Each head uses fire-elemental attacks, so Lemina should spam Ice Arrows, Jean
 use Blue Dragon Palm, Hiro spam Poe Sword and Leo chop things up with Flash
 Blade. White Dragon Protect is more useful in the early going, of course, but
 shouldn't be all that necessary unless there's little healing (Lucia won't be
 that reliable here). When it does come time for WDP, use it as a shield to
 heal a bit. When four heads have been slain, an ugly stomach-mouth thing will
 come out; that should be the main target. Since its attack-all can capitalize
 on the party's weakened condition, this may be one of the very few times when
 a Life Jewel is better off used than sold.

 As an aside, when I played, Leo didn't get hit once with any attack. This may
 be luck, but since his sister is effectively fighting against him, maybe that
 symbolizes her hesitancy somehow...? Something to think about.

 ---

 After finishing the boss, talk with Mauri on the hilltop in ye olde Raculi.
 The [Red Dragon Aura] is received. The mouth of the cave is actually in that
 very room. Yay! Leo will have left the team, of course.

 In the lower floors there will be fiery geysers that emerge from the floor,
 and these'll hurt the party. Look for black holes where these may appear and
 avoid them. Also notable is that, for those of us who enjoy fleeing battle to
 maintain a harder difficulty, it often backfires and the enemies will maul
 the party. Everything can do about 70-100, so it's no laughing matter. Be
 careful and take lots of Healing Nuts!

 In the first screen, collect the [Holy Hairpin] and  | 13: Angel's Tear     |
 [Healing Nut] before finding the 'clearing' with a   | 14: Star Light       |
 [Life Jewel] ripe for the taking. The "A" stairway   | 15: Red Dragon Crest |
 will lead to a smaller looping screen with just one   ����������������������
 item: [Dyne's Armor]. Stick it on Hiro immediately! In the third screen, the
 enemy saturation will become abundantly clear, so the flee-and-save tactic'll
 help conserve MP. The three treasures -- [Tiger Armlet], [Passion Fruit], and
 [Ogre Crest] -- are in the dead-end section of the map where most of the foes
 congregate, whereas the "C" stairway is all around the other way practically.

 In the fourth screen, it's a bit smaller-scale. A [Holy Water], [Water Ring],
 and [Angel's Tear] can be scooped up. Put the Water Ring on someone because
 it's the second fire-reducing item so far. The "D" stairway will lead to the
 final enemy-infested region with the most number of items to collect. The
 [Shield Ring] is great, another [Angel Ring] and [Angel's Tear] are nearby
 as well. The [Star Light] is laying near the final fiend, so heal up and get
 ready for a heavyweight matchup...

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 This boss concentrates on raw attack strength rather than defense, so it will
 be in the party's best interest for the weakest MDF/HP allies to have the
 Water & Wind Rings equipped. By Lv40 everyone should be faster than the dude,
 but 2 Chiro Crests on Lemina still helps. The pattern is usually something
 like: firefield-maker, line damage, raises own attack, physical attack, line
 attack, repeat.

 Hiro should use Poe Sword, Jean gets Blue Dragon Palm, Ronfar tries to use
 Saint Litany and Tranquil Litany. Lemina should spam Ice Arrows and remove
 the fire-field effect from its lead-off attack. Unlike the White Fiend boss
 which was possible to beat without removing the elemental field effect, this
 one will barbecue the party in an instant. A good turn for Hiro/Jean/Lemina
 should produce 1000+ damage.

 Tactics-wise, I suggest putting the two people who have fire-reducing items
 on in the NW and NE corners, which is where it uses its line-type attack; it
 will do paltry double-digit in this way. The person in the NW corner will be
 able to draw all its other attacks there, which is why Hiro's high HP is the
 best candidate for the slot. This also means that, barring any interruption,
 only one WDP needs to be used every 5 or so turns and it will protect the 3-4
 other allies!

 ---

 Afterwards, enter the main chamber and watch the scenes with Ruby, who will
 give the [Red Dragon Crest] over. Now that all four dragons have been freed,
 it's time to tackle...The Goddess Tower in Pentagulia! I should note that,
 in battle, Ruby will now do more damage than the 8-10 she's been doing all
 game. It doesn't help much, but more useful comparitively.

 NOTE: After entering the Goddess Tower, there won't be anymore shops for a
 looooooong time, so get everyone properly equipped, and take care of
 inventories also.

 Luckily, all paths in this joint are straightforward. The first screen has a
 [Vitality Vial], the second a [Healing Nut]. The third screen has a [Holy
 Water] and a weapon for Ronfar, the [Holy Mace]. Nothing in the fourth area,
 but the fifth has a [Crushing Fist] for Jean. Continue along to the room
 marked 'Globe' to see a scene about Lunar's history.

 From now on, a new enemy type will appear with the other baddies, and it has
 a long range for following, sadly. A [Master Shield] can be found in the 1st
 screen they appear in, and a [Holy Bracelet] in the one after. The 8th screen
 has an [Aura Bandanna] to swipe, and the last treasure is a [Aura Robe] for
 Lemina. There won't be any more regular battles after that screen, so heal
 up at the Althena statue and level-up a bit if required. The boss will be in
 the Goddess Tower itself.

| � Raises DEF a small amount (Self)              | Staff raised w/ 2 hands   |

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 The boss' DEF leaves much to be desired -- taking off 1000-plus damage per
 round is very possible -- but it has a few attacks that can really wreak some
 havoc. The first is its physical damage attack on everyone, where she throws
 her staff. It's used on the 2nd turn and every 5 turns thereafter (about). It
 is thus wise to use White Dragon Protect when she raises her DEF to counter
 this. The second powerful attack is the one where snakes emerge from her
 shoulderpads; this does massive damage in a line...like, OHKO amounts (300+).

 Hiro should use Poe Sword (or Triple Sword if he's Lv50+ already), Jean gets
 to use Blue Dragon Palm. Lemina should strike with Ice Arrows. Since these
 guys should be doing this every turn, it's thus best to give the White Dragon
 Protect duties to Ronfar, who shouldn't need to cure as much. Putting Hiro in
 the NW corner (via Tactics screen) will lure the poison and other one-target
 attack there! Obviously he should have a poison-proof accessory, but it's
 not too hard to beat this battle without the boss getting to use its attack
 pattern 2 full times. :D

 |�������������������|  No map for the Goddess Tower, I'm afraid -- it's 
 | � Life Jewel      |  structurally similar to the Blue Spire, so there's
 | � Passion Fruit   |  no "huh!?" factor involved. The best items to walk
 | � Silver Light    |  away with are the [Silver Light], [Spirit Talisman]
 | � Angel's Tear    |  which halves all elemental damage, and the [Goddess
 | � Spirit Talisman |  Crest] which powers up any crest it's paired with.
 | � Goddess Crest   |  The [Tri-Ring] protects any status changes -- put it
 | � Star Light      |  on Hiro.

 the party in the Magic Library, the highest floor of the Vane Trial Cave, and

 in a fight with...

 This is actually two separate battles back-to-back but I'll combine 'em here.
 The first is basically just attacking with everyone except Lemina, who should
 be healing with items. It's not that hard even with no magic abilities; just
 make sure to use Healing Nuts since damage usually ends up being about 200.
 Hiro's the main target all throughout this, so keep him alive and things'll
 be swell. Ghaleon alternates his attacks, and the electric shock one is OHKO
 basically -- hopefully your inventory has some Angel's Tears, or at least a
 few Angel Rings for the party. One way to get through is having Hiro defend
 a lot since his attacks won't do much besides criticals, whereas Leo should
 be able to do 120-ish each attack turn.

 The second battle has everyone with their magical powers back. Use Divine
 Litany and White Dragon Protect with Ronfar, Hiro gets Poe Sword, Leo Flash
 Blade, Jean Blue Dragon Palm, and Lemina should ATK-boost/Magic Shield since
 Ghaleon's elemental defense is high. The non-elemental meteor attack is the
 most damaging, so that's the one to guard against. The other attacks from
 before still get used, although their power is nerfed a bit. Hiro will once
 again be the most-targeted ally (if in the NW corner), so give him special
 attention!

 Afterwards, [Ghaleon's Sword] is obtained. Leaving town is only possible by
 telling Ghaleon that, so before going, if the Thieves' Staff from the Vane
 Trial Cave HASN'T been obtained, get it immediately. This way, if anything
 bad happens in the next dungeon, Healing Nuts and Star Lights can be stolen!

 will be the only means of instant healing in the |      � Fiend Gate        |
 entire dungeon, however, so in a bind, warping   |__________________________|
 out is the only way to go!

 Speaking of which, the final boss is H-A-R-D. I tried to beat it when Hiro
 was under Lv50 and couldn't do it; it was a war of attrition with my items
 since the boss heals a huge amount every so often. Thus, I don't recommend
 attempting to fight him until Hiro is Lv50, at which time he learns the great
 Triple Sword technique -- basically 3 Poe Sword attacks in one turn. This'll
 make proceeding a whole lot easier. The good news is that the party is Lv45+
 already most likely, so level-grinding shouldn't be too difficult.

 The last note is that gaining items can be hard in this last place, but with
 the Thieves' Staff, it's not impossible. Fiend Gates on the topmost floors
 carry Star Lights, whereas Mace Mashers have Healing Nuts. Hades monsters on
 the 2F carry/drop Angel's Tears, for reference.

   ######################

 This place is a gigantic undertaking with hard monsters, most of which are
 resistant to some common form of attack. Thus, even while it's easy to get
 through with a map, I recommend going through and getting the items, leaving,
 and then ascending without having to worry about sidetracking. A flee-n'-save
 strategy can work, but it will probably involve a lot of resetting also.

 ---

 On labyrinthine first floor, a [Silver Light] is in the north chamber from
 the exit. Turn west when possible, then south at the first chance, then west
 once more when the corridor opens. From here, just take the curvy path 'round
 the western rim of the 'honeycomb' until the exit presents itself. The 2F is
 similar, although proceeding is barred by red laser grids. The areas leading
 up to the 3F switches (enemyless) are marked on the map. Only when all four
 are deactivated does the way go forward. The [Fiend Ring], [Silver Light],
 and 2 [Life Jewel]s found here should be picked up naturally, although the
 Fiend Ring has a nasty side-effect: it makes the user start battle w/ 1 HP!
 However, it'll make that person resistant to all magic (even non-elem)! Just
 make sure there's always a situation where that person can be immediately
 cured, such as with a pair of Chiro crests.

 Floor #3 has no treasures, so meandering is useless -- go south, east when
 possible, then south to the exit. Floor #4 is enemy-filled with new types,
 but there's only one treasure -- a [Life Jewel] -- near the entrance, so
 don't bother exploring. After going north a bit, the way west opens up, and
 from there, north again to the looped exit. Sound like bad directions? That's
 what a map is for!

 Floor #5 is much easier, and only has a [Silver Light] in a dead-end platform
 to the east. This is also the only place Fiend Gates will appear on, so try
 and steal (or drop) Star Lights from them if possible. The stairway up will
 lead to the game's hardest boss. Here is my tactics setup:

|����������������|  Leo   : Blue Dragon/Power Crests + Water Ring, Fresh Ring
| Hiro      Jean |  Hiro  : Revenge/Snake Crests + Healing Ring, Tri-Ring
|                |  Jean  : Chiro/Chiro Crests + Spirit Talisman/Healing Ring
|    Ronfar      |  Lemina: White Dragon/Chiro Crests + Stardust/Wind Ring 
|                |  Ronfar: Chiro/Goddess Crests + Healing/Clear Rings
| Leo     Lemina |
|________________|  Recommended equipment is basically the best they have!
                    Note that if you have only one Chiro Crest, pairing it w/
 the Goddess Crest will produce the same "always attacks first" effect. There
 is no doubt in my mind that a player may NOT have multiple Chiro Crests -- I
 didn't when I first played -- but I figure at least someone scratching their
 head over equipment could derive their own special type.

 Hiro should use Triple Sword, Leo gets Soul Blade, Jean uses Blue Dragon
 Palm. Ronfar should put Divine Litany on everyone, then (pre-empt?) cure when
 the pattern requires it. Lemina learns Power Drive at Lv48 and should slap it
 on Hiro immediately -- this will stretch that 30 MP cost a bit -- as well as
 using White Dragon Protect. She has the most MP (348 at Lv50!) and can get
 the most use out of the high casting price, although she'll definitely have
 to pre-emptively cast it. For as slow as she is, with the crest setup shown
 above, she didn't really need to pre-empt anything, though. Her Magic Shield
 will also be useful at times, just like Ice Arrows will be. Really, if Hiro
 is the main damage-dealer, Lemina deserves spotlight for versatility.

 Speaking of which, this first form only has a few attacks. The muting strike
 will target the middlemost ally, which the player should have equipped some
 mute-proof armor on (it was Ronfar for me). The zone attack also targets the
 middlemost person. The pattern is usually: mute attack, raining fire, zone
 attack, crappy single-target laser, zone attack. The "tell" for the raining
 fire and laser strike are the same, though, so the player may be thrown for a
 loop. Either way, if done right, a single WDP can be stretched very far! Try
 not to use too many items (the reason WDP is on Lemina) because those will be
 needed in a few moments. If you saved up Silver Lights like I did -- I had 15
 from throughout the game -- then sparing one to get this form over quickly is
 A-OK.

 The middle and hardest stretch can be seen as two separate forms, although I
 group them together as one, myself. First things first: when the battle
 starts, put Divine Litany on everyone, cast White Dragon Protect, and simply
 guard/stall for 6 turns while Lucia gives her little soliloquy. Zophar's
 multi-armed attacks will be pretty paltry, like he's playing with the allies
 knowing he can't lose. Make sure that during this time everyone spaces them-
 -selves out; this helps when Zophar tightens the proverbial noose. [Erpy
 suggests doing as much damage to the hands as possible before Lucia heals the
 party, to help make them easier to kill in the next portion.]

 Onto the real battle, which occurs after Lucia breaks loose of Zophar's hold.
 She will fully heal everyone, which includes any MP that was reduced before.
 Focus only on killing the head of the beast!!! Hiro should spam Triple Sword,
 Leo uses Soul Blade, Jean uses Blue Dragon Palm. Ronfar should use Divine
 Litany (yes, it must be recast for part 2) and his bag of tricks should any
 HP redline or ally be KO'd. Lemina should be the White Dragon Protect-or, and
 use Power Drive & Ice Arrows in her spare time. It's possible to kill the
 hands (HP: ~6500) although it's not really needed.

 White Dragon Protect is great like always, but with five enemies casting a
 semi-random attack, it gets perforated a lot easier than normal. It should be
 recast EVERY turn 50 MP is available; or, have Ronfar heal while everyone
 defends in extreme cases. This is the reason why I said to save Silver Lights
 and buy/steal Star Lights up til now. It __CAN__ heal itself, but it might

 As for the boss itself, many of its attacks are single-target non-elemental
 attacks. Some don't target the back-row, which is why Magic Shield (used w/
 WDP) can really help those it does target, namely front- and middle-row
 attackers. One more thing of note: if someone dies in one round, they won't
 be targeted by the boss AI in the next. This helps a lot if Ronfar (or who-
 -ever is the healer) has attack initiative and can be put under WDP after a
 bit of the enemy's attacks. Final note: its elemental attacks target those
 by field placement, it seems. Ice attacks hit front, fire/wind middle, and
 fire/thunder back row. Just an observation.

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 After so much toiling, just one more form...and it's a piece of crap! Well,
 it can still kill Hiro, but the tactics can be tempered with a bit of self-
 -preservation. Lucia will be the only other ally but may not heal, so Hiro's
 gotta do that himself. Use Triple Sword, heal if needed, and repeat. Hiro
 still has the same HP/MP as the previous battle, which is the only downside.

 Afterwards, everyone reappears in Vane. Talk to Nall in front of the guild,
 Lucia on the roof, then with Ruby again. Some scenes'll take place and it's

 To start the Epilogue, after defeating the game's scenes, a prompt will ask
 if a save wants to be made. Do so, go to the title screen, and load that to
 start the new adventure!

 ---

 Hiro will be all alone again in the world, and for the last mission -- going
 to the Blue Star -- he'll have to round up the old gang again who's scattered
 around the globe. There's plenty of new stuff to get and do, so I'll list it
 in an encyclopedic manner:

 GENERAL
 �������
 � All Althena statues that demanded a donation will now be free
 � [Lucia's Pendant] obtained in the final scenes is a teleportation device,
   and once a place has been REVISITED, it is added to the menu. It can only
   be used in the same places where the Blue Star can be viewed, so nothing
   underground for instance.

 ALLY LOCATIONS
 ��������������
 � Leo is on top of the Mystic Ruins
 � Jean is at the Madoria Carnival
 � Ronfar is at Raculi
 � Lemina is in Vane

 OPTIONAL DUNGEONS
 �����������������
 � Lionhead [on river island near Neo-Vane area]
 � Brave Labyrinth [in broken hillside near Horam]
 � Dragon's Nest [carved in mountain near former Pentagulia location]
 � Dragon Ruins [near Gwyn's House]
 � Lost Labyrinth [inside Illusion Woods' bathhouse/hot spring]
 � Water Ruins [in Sluice Forest's artificial dam]
 � Star Dragon Tower [in Starlight Forest]

   The Water Ruins, Dragon Ruins, and Star Dragon Tower must be completed to
   clear the epilogue, whereas everything else is just extra items and such.

 EAST/WEST LOTA
 ��������������
 � A small event here about marriage. Talk with Julia in the small building
   leading to the bridge from East Nota, and she'll ask a favor. Agree; there
   will be a message to deliver to Kyle in West Nota. You can find him in the
   bar getting hammered. Tell him "You're not giving up, are you?" and a few
   scenes later, they'll be reunited. A [Rememberizer] is given over as a
   thank you! Whenever the party visits a location where an FMV took place,
   the Rememberizer will shine and the player can watch the scene at leisure.
   To see which ones are currently viewable, scroll down the list with the
   d-pad -- it looks like nothing's happening, but that's only because the
   ones not yet obtained are towards the top. Select whichever one, change the
   disc at the prompt, and voila!

 MYSTIC RUINS
 ������������
 � [Lucia's Bromide 3] is given from a fairy in the garden area
 � In the room where Ghaleon first appeared, [Ghaleon's Bromide] is found.
 � Leo will be standing on the very top part, near the Magic Arrow's wreckage

 TAKKAR

    |�����|     This is the dungeon nearest Horam, found in the broken hill

    |_   _|     which is why it should be done first.

     _| |_      all are deactivated, it's northward.
    |  _  |
    | |_| |     The 2nd screen has more locked doors, and 2 statues on either
    |_   _|     side. One will unlock the door, the other 3 will force a fight
     _| |_      with a Lady Charme and her cohorts. To proceed without any of

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 The Hero's Talisman is the main target, whereas the Sword Arm/Fist Arms it
 creates are not. Use Triple Sword, Blue Dragon Palm, and Soul Blade on the
 main target, while Ronfar uses Divine/Tranquil Litany. Lemina should use WDP
 and ATK-buff Hiro and Jean if possible. The boss has no attacks other than
 making its (repeatably-summoned) cohorts ATK raise through the roof, so it's
 not a bad idea to have someone attack everyone at once: Grizzle Blade and/or
 Catastrophe can work here. This also helps because, after the boss has died,
 its minions remain. The sword arm is weak to ice, the other weak to fire. I
 would guess the lesser parts have about 5000-5500 HP.

 [Erpy writes: "If you want to fight a bit more defensive in the battle against
 the Hero's Talisman, have Lemina use Erase Magic to void the Talisman's attack
 buffs on its cronies. Sure, your own buffs will disappear too, but since the
 Talisman is weak against physicals, your sword techs should still do plenty
 of damage against it."]

 ---

 Afterwards, claim the [Hero's Talisman], which gives an ally the 'Burning
 Rage' ability, which increases all allies' ATK for 1 MP! Yeah, what a marvel.
 Give it to someone with lots of MP and doesn't attack a lot, like Ronfar or
 Lemina.

 |����������������������|  All of the enemies here will be super-tough, doing
 | 01: Goddess Hairpin  |  about 180-200+ per attack to a Lv50+ party. It can
 | 02: Goddess Bracelet |  be hard to get through, but note there's no boss to
 | 03: Nameless Sword   |  save any MP for. Just use the tried and true method
 | 04: Dragon Shield    |  of fleeing-and-saving in order to make it through.
 | 05: Sage Staff       |  Did I mention that all enemies are very fast and
 | 06: Life Jewel       |  follow a long distance? I didn't? They do, and it
 | 07: Silver Light     |  can be very annoying. One note on Dopplegangers:
 | 08: Chaos Armor      |  they're near-invincible until they turn into Death
 | 09: Gale Crest       |  Dolls on Turn 2. They also give 1800 EXP each, and
 |______________________|  may appear in fives on B9. Fleeing from them is not
                           too difficult because the first turn's a crapshoot!

 Item-wise, each floor has exactly one item. [Goddess Hairpin] can only be
 equipped on Jean, the [Goddess Bracelet] goes to Ronfar, and the [Nameless
 Sword] is Leo's very own. Hiro gets a [Dragon Shield] and Lemina gets a
 mute-inflicting [Sage Staff]. A [Life Jewel] and [Silver Light] are the two
 weaker items, although a [Chaos Armor] towards the bottom can be put onto
 Ronfar. It randomizes his DEF, so use with a lots of discretion. The 9th item
 is a [Gale Crest] which gives an extra physical attack, or two if combined w/
 the Goddess Crest.

 Since the last screen is outdoors (like B6), simply teleport out, yo!

 There are no items on the first four floors, so no exploration needed. In the
 first screen, veer east at the first fork and do the same at the next to find
 the "A" stairway. On 2F, hang east at every chance to find the southeastern
 "B" stairway. From there on 3F, simply follow the straightforward path right
 to the "C" stairway. Finally, go the southern way on 4F and eventually find
 the "D" stairway nestled in the SW corner.

 The 5F area is filled with spikes and a single pathway to a room. Each of
 the side-rooms will have a switch to turn on, changing the pathway outside
 to the next room. This will have to be repeated until the "E" stairway gets
 hooked up. Along the way, a [Fantasy Ribbon] for Lemina, [Miracle Bandanna]
 for Ronfar, [Lunn's Armlet] for Jean, and [Holy Shield] for Leo are able to
 be found.

 On Lionhead's outer carving, get [Hiro's Bromide] above the nose. There's a
 single door leading into a treasure area, guarded by...

 _______________________ ____________ ____________ ______________
| BOSS: Devil Eye       | HP: ~12000 | EXP: 55000 | SILVER:      |
|����������������������� ������������ ������������|�������������� ������������|
| � Physical damage (One)                         | Eye flashes blue & green  |

| � Non-elem damage (One)                         | Raising/lowering claws    |
|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 Devil Eye is strong against almost all attack types, making this battle quite
 crappy fundamentally. Hiro should use Cross-Boomerang, Ronfar Divine/Tranquil
 Litany and (maybe) Anger Dice, Jean Blue Dragon Fist, and Lemina Ice Arrows.
 Leo should use Rock Cobra as necessary. It's possible to do 1000+ per round
 if everyone's kept alive. Slam Dance and White Dragon Proect will be great to
 have, but Lemina will be the main damage-dealer so don't stick WDP on her.

 Its physical toss-up attack can be lured to the NW corner character, so make
 it Hiro/Leo since it does about 300+. In fact, this will lure all of its
 single-target attacks there! Since Cross-Boomerang only does about 200, it
 isn't that dumb to just have Hiro guard while everyone else hammers away and
 puts an occasional White Dragon Protect up for the pyramid attack. It helps
 if Ronfar has attack initiative (2 Chiro Crests or Chiro/Goddess Crest) so he
 can be much more effective. Not having to cure MP once is a real possibility.

 [Erpy writes: "Instead of using weaker high-level magic (like Cross-Boomerang
 and Rock Cobra) against the Devil Eye, use Thunderbolt against it (gained by
 equipping 2 thunder crests). Thunderbolt is most likely the strongest magical
 attack in the game, except for Catastrophe. Lemina's spell did over 1000
 damage a round in my game (I was at a fairly high level) and the rest did
 between 700 and 800 a shot.]

 ---

 After the boss is a red stain, collect the treasure trio: [Healing Ring],
 [Silver Light], [Fierce Fist]. The switch in the boss' room will make the
 path in the spikes room go to the only antechamber yet unentered, which has
 the button to get back to the normal dungeon. This is all unnecessary though,
 so just warp out and put Lionhead behind y'forever!

 This labyrinth was right in front of everyone's faces, located in Illusion
 Woods' hot spring bathhouse. The mini-waterfall in the main room will have
 dried up in the epilogue, giving passage beyond. After entering the second
 screen, the main maze part occurs. The rooms are all linked, looping, and
 designed to confuse and befuddle! There are many ways to proceed, but here's
 the way I suggest (per-room basis):

 FLOOR 2: East, East, South
 FLOOR 3: West, South, South, West
 FLOOR 4: West, South, West, South, West
 FLOOR 5: West, West
 FLOOR 6: South, South

 If you're confused about which floor you're on, go to the save screen and it
 will display the current location.

| � Physical damage (Zone)                        | Knight: upside-down sword |
|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 The Angel Knight is weak to physical attacks, the Knight to magical attacks.
 Mage Knight is neutral to all attacks, but will heal his comrades, so make
 sure to target that one first. The Angel should be next, since Triple Sword
 will eviscerate it for about 3600+ damage. Knight should be last.

 Hiro should use Triple Sword, Jean use Blue Dragon Palm, Leo use Soul Blade.
 Like usual, Ronfar should use Divine Litany first turn and stick with healing
 thereafter. Lemina is best with White Dragon Protect; if someone else has it,
 give her the Hero's Talisman from Brave Dungeon to boost all allies' ATK.
 Once the Mage is dead, the others can follow a lot easier. Note that the
 Knight will attack the nearest NW person, so as long as s/he's alive, there
 should be little problem.

 The prize for winning is [Alex's Ocarina], which will play the game's music

| 5: Archer Crest     |  Two floors later, the final chest, a [Silver Light]

|_________________________________________________|___________________________|

 Like usual, use Triple Sword, Soul Blade, Blue Dragon Palm, and Divine
 Litany on the first turn. It will use its suction attack to draw everyone in
 closer for its physical zone attack, so use WDP to bypass perhaps. It will
 repeatedly use that attack if the player directs the characters to defend
 (which makes them go to their normal spots), so this might be useful in
 stalling somewhat. Luckily, the boss is neutral to all types of attacks, so
 no one's left out.

 Basically, its attacks are powerful, but by using WDP and Burning Rage (from
 Hero's Talisman in Brave Labyrinth), everyone can get their physical attacks
 souped-up to about 3500+ damage per turn. It helps if Ronfar is using the
 ATK-booster since he won't be doing anything; Lemina should be using WDP for
 her MP'd duration. She really is the ideal person to use it since she should
 be faster at Lv53 without much SPD-upping. In fact, it's easy enough that
 the battle could be over in about six or seven turns with no useful items
 wasted.

 Go past the hunkajunk sentry and down to the dragon sculpture, where the
 [Right Opal Jewel] is. The Rememberizer will remember a scene here as well.
 Don't have it? You'll have to backtrack all the way to get it now. Tch!

 This boss isn't that hard in comparison to the rest. Hiro gets Triple Sword,
 Leo gets Soul Blade, Jean uses Blue Dragon Palm, Ronfar uses Divine Litany
 and Burning Rage. Lemina should use White Dragon Protect and fire-elemental
 attacks, as the boss is weak to them. With its crappy defense, there's no
 reason this battle can't be won in 6-7 turns of pure offense. For hilarity,
 put Hiro in the NW corner and give him a water-reducing accessory. The most
 annoying tack is definitely the bubble one, which traps an ally inside and
 doesn't let them have their turn.

 into the game's last (for real this time!) dungeon.

 There's nothing that can be done about the non-elemental attack, however, but
 by equipping a Spirit Talisman (all elemental attacks reduced) and a Healing
 Ring, most of the dragon's attacks will do chump damage. The ring will help
 smooth over the damage. Hiro should use Triple Sword repeatedly, defending
 during the non-elemental attack, and healing once during the boss' elemental
 attack pattern. Pretty simple. [NOTE: The thunder attack always follows its
 non-elem attack, although the 'tell' seems to be the same. Email if you find
 it out.] The good news is that Hiro will definitely be faster than the boss,
 so barring any inventory mishaps, he should make it out alright.

 Afterwards, head upstairs and watch the true ending. After the credits, make
 sure to watch the hilarious outtakes! They're a sweet icing on the cake.

BROMIDES                                                                 [BRMD]

 Bromides (pictures) of the characters have been scattered throughout the game
 and can be fun souvenirs of the journey. Some can be missed, some can only be
 found in the epilogue -- here's how to get 'em in their general order of
 appearance.

NORMAL PLAY
�����������
 � Lucia's Bromide 1 (Staring at the Sky)

   After first staying the night at Ronfar's place, Lucia will be missing the
   next morning. In the east part of town is a man standing in front of a
   house that Lucia visited earlier; talk with him to get the item.

 � Jean's Bromide 2 (Dancing Queen)

   After events in Illusion Woods, Jean will join the party and the northern
   exit to the world map will be open. Talk with the girl who guarded the
   vines and she'll give the poster over.

 � Lemina's Bromide 3 (Midnight Appraisal)

   When first arriving in Meribia, visit Ramus' shop and repeatedly speak
   with his grandfather. After a few conversations, he'll give the bromide
   over. This is missable, so get it before going to Taben's Peak for the 1st
   time.

 � Lemina's Bromide 2 (Seaside Stroll)

   After obtaining the 'Midnight Appraisal' bromide from Ramus' grandfather,
   inspect the barrels in the northwest corner of the store to find this one.
   It can't be obtained without Ramus grandfather's first one, though!!!

 � Jessica's Bromide (Land Ho!)

   When first arriving in Meribia, talk with the poet/bard at the local tavern
   and he'll fork it over.

 � Mia's Bromide

   At the Spring of Transmission near Vane, one of the two guys walking around
   will notice Hiro's a collector and donate this to his cause.

 � Lemina's Bromide 1 (Sunset Breeze)

   In Vane's Magic Library, one of the easternmost shelves has a funny book of
   poetry that Lemina contributed to. This bromide will fall out of it.

EPILOGUE-ONLY
�������������

 � Lucia's Bromide 3 (Blue Starlight)

   In the Mystic Ruins, one of the fairies gives this as a present.

 � Ghaleon's Bromide (Secret Garden Moment)

   In the Mystic Ruins, backtrack to the area where Ghaleon first appeared to
   the party (where his memory was kept). A new chest will carry this.

 � Mystere's Bromide (Shining Justice)

   Over in Takkar, the person who used to guard the northern gate will ask if
   anyone had seen the masked hoodlum who razed the town in a clumsy fashion.
   The poster of Mystere is given over.

 � Jean's Bromide 3 (Long Hard Night)

   In the Madoria Carnival's north screen, a guy loitering around will sell a
   bromide of Jean for 3000 silver. Snap that up!

 � Jean's Bromide 4 (Martial Awe)

   In the Madoria Carnival's north screen, a new red chest will have appeared
   by a balloon planter near the caravan's tail.

 � Lemina's Bromide 4 (Steamy Scene)

   This chest will have appeared in the now-monsterless Meribia Sewers, near
   the entrance that lead down to where a past Assassin battle. It's in plain
   sight, really, on one of the isolated walkways.

 � Lucia's Bromide 4 (Splendor in the Grass)

   At Taben's Peak, a new chest with this inside has appeared in the jail.

 � Lucia's Bromide 2 (Another Great Day)

   At Taben's Peak, on the balcony is a baby in a carriage; he has this.

 � Nall's Bromide (Fishy Fantasies)

   At Taben's Peak, a kid in the downstairs playground area will give this
   after some conversation, saying not to show Nall or Ruby because "you know
   what prudes they can be". ^___^

 � Luna's Bromide (Dreamy Weaver)

   At Vane, the house northwest of the entrance has two grown-ups who used to
   live at Taben's Peak. Nall gave them this bromide as something to remember
   him by, and they'll give it to Hiro in turn.

 � Borgan's Bromide (Rub-a-Dub-D'ohh!)

   This perverse bromide is given by Borgan to Lemina, after she's re-joined
   the party again. Like Borgan says, don't look at it or it will lose its
   charm... >___>

 � Borgan's Bromide X (He really is a fat bastard after all)

   In the epilogue, go to the Vane guild hall and inspect the tapestry behind
   Miria and Borgan by alternating "X" and "O" buttons. A 'ding' sound should
   play and put this in the inventory. It's really an in-joke about how there
   was no Dark Scimitar in Lunar Silver Star Story, and apparently, Borgan's
   had it the entire time! Haha...

 � Jean's Bromide 1 (Gypsy Feast)

   In the northwestern dojo is a drunkard who will give this to Jean as a sign
   of the alleged night they spent together. :p

 � Mauri's Bromide 1 (Afternoon Picnic)

   After Ronfar rejoins the party, Mauri will give this token as something to
   remember her by on the journey.

 � Mauri's Bromide 2 (In Leo's Footsteps)

   Inside a chest behind Ronfar's house in Raculi.

REMEMBERIZER                                                             [RMMB]
_______________________________________________________________________________
�������������������������������������������������������������������������������
 The Rememberizer can be obtained in the epilogue in a small Nota sidequest.
 Talk with the bride-to-be (Julia) in East Nota, and agree to carry a message
 to Kyle in West Nota. He's getting smashed at the tavern there, and after
 giving him some advice -- the middle option at the prompt -- on getting her
 back, a few wedding-crashing scenes later the bride will give this as a token
 of her thanks.

 Now, this item allows the player to watch any previous FMV -- the trick is,
 Hiro has to revisit the location to 'record' it. To view past cutscenes,
 open the Rememberizer in the item enu and use the d-pad to scroll down. This
 seems self-explanitory, but since Disc 1 movies aren't displayed immediately,
 it can seem like nothing's happening. Anyway, here's where to find all of the
 cool scenes:

 Crest are equippable by all characters, and temporarily augment stats, give
 new magic, or have specific battle effects. There are many combinations that
 will help (like reducing MP consumption) to others that aren't as useful.
 Here's a list of all combinations

 NOTE: Combinations that do nothing are NOT listed
     : Bracketed numbers -- such as [05] -- represent stat decreases
     : Duplicate combinations are NOT listed. Search alphabetically to find.
     : You know a combination is made because the lettering will be yellowed!
     : The [NS] notation means 'No Staves' -- combination doesn't affect 'em
     : The [?] notation means I'm unsure what the displayed effect does
     : "Enhanced High Magic" means that, in addition to upgraded spells, a
       spell that affects the elemental field will be given.

 Here's the equipment list. One note on the "Uses?" portion -- I abbreviated
 the first names of the main players (not Gwyn) in this order: Hiro, Ronfar,
 Jean, Lemina, Leo; in other words, order of invitation. Don't get Lemina &
 Leo's names mixed up! Any special effects are listed underneath the section.
 Bracketed numbers (ex: [08] ) represent stat decreases.

[A] - Lemina gets a weapon called the Thieves' Staff, found at the highest
      floor of the Vane Trial Cave. It's in a southwest corner, and can be
      opened only after Lemina gives everyone permission to open the town's
      chests.

[Q] - Where are the Dragon Eye Jewels in the epilogue?
[A] - Cliff's notes: the Water Ruins in Sluice Forest and the Dragon Ruins by
      Gwyn's house. The jewel used for the Blue Spire events cannot be taken
      out or anything.

[Q] - How do you learn Shattered Sword and Fractured Armor?
[A] - Equip the Rusty Dagger and a Magic Eye Crest. Unfortunately, this is the
      only specialized combination I know of where abilities like these are
      learned.

[Q] - How can Hiro run faster?
[A] - Equip the Yellow Pajamas, Gorgon Doll, and Rubber Boots -- this nearly
      doubles how long he can sprint. The downside is that whoever has this
      setup starts all battles asleep!

[Q] - I heard you can access Lucia's magic somehow...?
[A] - Yes. Make sure the party is damaged and heal them with Ronfar. Lucia's
      portrait, which was previously grayed-out, can be accessed.

[Q] - Are there any missables?
[A] - There are only a few to my knowledge. The Lemina-centric bromides found
      in Meribia must be obtained before leaving for Taben's Peak. Also, the
      Hellfire Staff and Healing Ring in Pentagulia events are unique and
      finite in availability, respectively. Many unique items have an infinite
      window of opportunity to get overall, though.

[Q] - Why does Blue Dragon Wave/Magic Shield not work on everyone?
[A] - They're 'special' type attacks, in that they only affect the enemies or
      allies around their current location. In Magic Shield's case, it will
      affect any ally within range, or just Lemina if spread out (since it can
      only be cast on her). These attacks usually aren't that useful unless
      everyone is clumped together -- an ill-advised tactic overall -- but it
      can be useful against enemies that suck everyone in closer, such as the
      Phantom Sentry. When Lemina's hit, the move has to be recast though. =/

[Q] - What's the differences between the PSX and Sega CD/Saturn/JP versions?
[A] - Here's what's noted in the manual and what I know off-hand. E-mail me
      if there's anything else (and I'm sure there are, plot-/mechanic-wise).

      � New Crest system added
      � Analog function was added
      � Music slowdown eliminated
      � Random overworld battles removed
      � Hiro & Ruby's voices were re-recorded
      � Spell names and voices can be disabled
      � Textbox borders were changed to a more "ornate" type
      � "Magic Experience" used in magic level-ups/saving removed
      � When purchasing items, stat changes are shown before buying
      � Brave/Lost Labyrinth (Epilogue) dungeons invented for remake
      � Anime scenes framed in 320x224 resolution instead of 256x224
      � In the movie playback system, audio is 38Khz mono instead of 18Khz
      � Some audio was restored; the given example: Ronfar's Mauri flashback
      � Spell effectiveness is color-coded now instead of using JP "X" & "O"s
      � Thirty saves per 15-block memory card, whereas there were 3 originally

[Q] - The strategy guide said there's a bonus if one rips the cd audio...?
[A] - Yes. There's a hidden track in Zophar's voice where he says he's liked
      it when the person has cheated all throughout his/her life, and condones
      one ripping the audio to see the outtakes sooner. For a link to the vid:
