## ---Author's Note--- ##
#########################

-Me and the FAQ-

Hi! Actually this is my first walkthrough but I really want this to look
good. The reason why I chose to make a walkthrough on Threads of Fate mainly
is that because there are no walkthroughs that are specifically written for
the North American Version as of August 7, 2000. Maybe, I also created this
because Threads of Fate is a relatively short game (about 24 hours of game
play).

I also included paragraphs in almost all or all parts of the game that
talks about the story of the game (enclosed by these - *story*). They are
SPOILERS so I suggest that you should not read them unless 1) You have
finished the game or that section already or 2) You did not understand the
story at that part.

-Others and the FAQ-

Everyone is welcome to read and keep this document. This can also be sent
or given to anyone without notice to me as long as it is NOT
1) used for commercial or profitable reasons
2) given for free in order to sell a product
3) altered or ripped off

and that be sure that the author and especially all those who contributed
in this document are credited (I really took time doing this and I deserve it
[I think {sigh!}] and the ones that contributed too!)

I am not perfect. I make mistakes somewhere here and somewhere there. I
also miss a lot of things, specially hard to get items or side-quests that 1)
requires you to go back to a dungeon you already finished or 2) requires you
to talk to a person or to several persons in order to trigger the quest.
Please correct me from my mistakes. Also, if you want to add/contribute
something that I missed or miscellaneous tips, just E-Mail me and I will
credit you. Spelling and grammar corrections will also be appreciated. I am
also poor (sometimes) in understanding the plot or story of a game so if I am
mistaken in writing about a certain story line, drop me a mail.

If there are something you want to add such as the enemies stats, or game
secrets or anything, please give it to me. I will credit anyone who
contributes to this thing.

Hey, don't forget to tell me where you read this document if you are going
to e-mail me.

You can also send me questions via E-Mail or ICQ me if I am available.

## ---Introduction --- ## - I am going to fix this, it sounds stupid
#########################

Threads of Fate is an action-RPG which is developed and released by Square.
It is like Brave Fencer Musashi or Alundra 2 in terms of gameplay.

Threads of Fate is 3D (just like Brave Fencer Musashi or Alundra 2) and has
two playable characters namely Rue and Mint. Their story, just like that of
Star Ocean 2 are somewhat alike, they aim for the same things, they have the
same goal but different intentions.

I considered Threads of Fate a fun game to play mainly because of Mint's
dialogues but also that the game is really enjoyable.


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

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

+++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Starting a Game--- +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

Just connect your Play Station on an electrical outlet, press the Eject
button, put the CD in (the Threads of Fate CD), press the power button.

You will see the Sony logo, then the Play Station logo. Then you will see
something like this 'Published by Square' or something, then you will see the
Squaresoft logo. After that you will be at the 'Press Start Screen' where in
there is the Threads of Fate logo.

At the press start screen, you can press L1 or R1 to see some kind of intro
of the two main characters of the game, other characters and enemies. There
are no FMV sequences in this game. [Why? Why Square? ... Why? ...]

If you press start, you will be asked whether to start a 'New Game' or
'Continue' your game [that you already saved (duh!)]. Press 'X' to confirm.

If you chose 'New Game', you can choose between the two playable characters
in the game, either Rue [Tale of a Mysterious Boy] or Mint [Tale of a spunky
girl]. Press the 'X' or confirm button to begin any of the two tales.

++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Controls--- +
++++++++++++++++++

You can change the controls in the game .

D-Pad - Character Movement. Up, Down, Left and Right.
L1/R1 - Rotate Camera - applicable in certain places only.
- See also Camera Movement section

The different control settings:

-Control Setting A-
Triangle - Attack 2 (Rue) / Magic (Mint)
Square - Transform (Rue) / Set Magic (Mint)
X - Attack / Confirm
Circle - Jump / Cancel

-Control Setting B-
Triangle - Transform (Rue) / Set Magic (Mint)
Square - Attack 2 (Rue) / Magic (Mint)
X - Attack / Confirm
Circle - Jump / Cancel

-Control Setting C-
Triangle - Transform (Rue) / Set Magic (Mint)
Square - Attack / Confirm
X - Attack 2 (Rue) / Magic (Mint)
Circle - Jump / Cancel

-Control Setting D-
Triangle - Attack 2 (Rue) / Magic (Mint)
Square - Attack / Confirm
X - Transform (Rue) / Set Magic (Mint)
Circle - Jump / Cancel

+++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Camera Movement--- +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

You can change the game's camera movement in the game options. Access the
game options from the menu. There are two types of camera movements, normal
and reverse. The normal and reverse concept of this game is unlike other
games and I believe that Square was mistaken in this one. Why?, because:

The normal camera movement goes like this. When you press L1, the camera
moves to the right and when you press R1, the camera moves to the left.
[Isn't this supposed to be the reverse camera movement]

The reverse camera movement goes like this. When you press L1, the camera
moves to the left and when you press R1, the camera moves to the right.
[This should have been the normal camera movement]

+++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Attacking--- +
+++++++++++++++++++

Attacking in this game gives you a 3-Hit combo then there will be a brief
stop. Attacking is also auto-aim, meaning that if you attack, even if the
enemy is behind your back, your character will automatically face the other
direction and whack the enemy. Also, if you attack, every time you hit an
enemy your MP will restore depending on how powerful the enemy is (the
stronger the enemy is the higher the restore of MP).

For Rue, he has the 3-Hit combo together with Attack 2. Attack 2 in Rue's
normal form can be best utilized when the enemies are hard to attack using
Attack 1 like the Stingers. Attack 2 does not use MP and just like Attack 1,
you can get MP if you hit an enemy with it.

There is also the jump attack. The jump attack has twice the damage of an
ordinary attack. Rue's jump attack is a spin while damaging the enemy on
both directions. Mint's jump attack is a jump kick and deals damage from
enemies that is below or in front of it. In some battles, the jump attack
proves very useful.

Eventually (at the Final Battle) Rue's Attack 2 will turn in to a defense
posture. The damage you receive (I think) is minimized and you won't fall
down or lose your ground if you receive a strong blow.

+++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Transform--- +
+++++++++++++++++++

Rue needs monster coins in order to transform. Monster coins can be
acquired by killing monsters (just like money) but it does not subtract
anything from the monster coins that you can get for money and if you sell
your monster coins, even if you can read 0 monsters for all, you can still
transform into that monster as long as you have killed it. But even if it is
like this, you can carry up to 4 monsters in your transformation inventory
(you can see that at Rue's Status) at a time.

In transforming as I said earlier, require monster coins, and only 4
monsters in the inventory. If you press the transform button, you can choose
to transform into the 4 monsters or become Rue. Rue and the monsters have
different abilities for Attack 1 and Attack 2. Sometimes attacks would use
up MP, but sometimes it does not. Aside from difference of attacks, the way
they look like (pretty obvious) and the way they move is also different.
Sometimes the monster has the power to jump twice or float on terrain, others
can run faster and jump further.

See the Transformation List for extra details.

+++++++++++++++
+ ---Magic--- +
+++++++++++++++

Mint uses MP when using Magic. Magic is divided into classes and type.
Different magic classes are (Blue, White, Red, Green, Yellow, Black and
Gold).
Also, magic, just like attacks, is auto-aim. Mint automatically aims the
magic to the enemy. Also magic attacks with different effects (like Wide,
Normal, Super, Power, Hyper, Circle and Cosmos). You can gain classes or
colors from certain events and the effects can be acquired from chests
scattered in the game.

If you press the 'Set Magic' button, you can change the color of the magic
to the one you want to use by pressing the 'Left' or 'Right' direction button
and by pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' button, you can change the effects of the
magic.

In the 'Set Magic' screen, the one in the center is the icon of the magic
you want to use and the icon of the effect. On the top, you can see the
magic's name, below it the MP and below of it, on the left is the effect of
the magic and at the right is the description of the magic (though it is a
very vague description for a magic attack but you can get ideas from it
though).

Also check out the magic list section.

+++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Game Over--- +
+++++++++++++++++++

If your HP reaches below 0, you will be in the 'Game Over' screen (except
for situations like fighting Rod or the fight together with the Trap Master).
In this screen you will be asked to choose from three things, first whether
to continue the game at that point, or to go back to town or to exit.

If you chose the first 'Continue', you will be asked what is the coin you
want to use: Bronze Coin - Full HP & 1/4 MP
Silver Coin - Full HP & 1/2 MP
Gold Coin - Full HP & MP
Platinum Coin - Full HP & MP, +1 Base Strength & Defense

If you chose to 'Go back to town', you will end up in town [where else?]
and your parameters (Maximum HP, Maximum MP, Strength & Defense) will remain
the same to the ones before you died, and NOT before your last save so it is
all right. The monsters coins you have will also be the same at the time
before you died so do not worry. The problem with this though is that the
items you picked up at that place will be gone and you have to go back
through that place again :(.

If you chose exit, you will forfeit your chance of continuing, so if I was
you, if you are planning on choosing this, reconsider and choose the 'Go back
to town' option and 'Save' your game if you want to quit.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ ---Increasing Parameters--- +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In Threads of Fate, there are no 'Level Up' features, nor do you gain
experience from fighting enemies. To increase your parameters, you need to
do the following. Check out Hobbs' Shop and Item Shop in the The Town
section.
___________________________________________________________________________
| Status of | How to increase |
|--------------|----------------------------------------------------------|
| Maximum HP | Buy from Hobb's Shop, Receive enemy damage. |
| Maximum MP | Buy from Hobb's Shop, Cast magic |
| Strength | Buy from Hobb's Shop, Buy bonuses on Tonio's Item Shop |
| Defense | Buy from Hobb's Shop, Buy bonuses on Tonio's Item Shop |
|--------------|----------------------------------------------------------|

You can also increase your parameters in the tavern after giving the
Legendary equipment to Jargen the bartender and giving him the right
ingredients.
_________________________________________________________________
| Dish | Enemies Required | Status Raised |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Minced Fire Blobs | 50 Fire Blobs | +10 Maximum HP |
| Mushroom Soup | 60 Fungies | +10 Maximum MP |
| Pollywog Souffle | 50 Pollywogs | +2 Base Strength |
| Gudon Liver Soup | 30 Gudons | +2 Base Defense |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|

Also, there is a nice tip, courtesy of KTeoh!

(1) When fighting Rod, if he hits you a lot (usually if he wins), you
will usually gain 2 hp (when your hp is not very high, i think
below 150 or so). And the cost? Only 100 G. If you add it up,buying
the +10hp from Hobbs costs 5000G, 10hp divided by 2hp is 5 (so 5
times). Battle Rod 5 times (and let him beat you up) - 500g only
compared to 5000G (you shouln't buy that anyways). So its kinda
good way especially when monsters don't quite help anymore.

(2) The max hp/mp gain formula is simple.

HP - As you lose HP, your max HP will increase. So its not a matter
of how many times you get hit, its the amount of damage dealt.
So a Pollywog may hit you 10 times and each hit gives you 1
damage - total is 10 damage. But a behemoth can hit you once
and give you 20+ damage. So to say, its better to fight
monsters that do more damage (being careful to get those blue
potions to keep healthy).
*Fighting Rod is a good way...see (1)

MP - MP gain is counted by the number of times you use magic
against enemies (better) OR just stand there with nobody
around and 'waste' MP (works in a way, but takes more times).
Since the formula doesn't care about MP cost, use magic/attack
that uses very little MP.

For Mint = White-Vulcan
For Rue = Gargoyle's Sonic, Stinger's rolling spine*, etc...

* I found this to be a good way early in the game. The king
ant at the underground ruins is weak only to fire, so any
other attack will deal only 1 damage. Since the stinger's
rolling spine uses only 1 mp, and refilling MP is soo easy,
just roll at the ant again and again, it won't die fast,
but your max MP will go up

## ---Frequently Asked Questions--- ##
######################################

Q. Where can I find the (something) and what does it do?

A. Just try finding the item using the 'Search' or 'Find' feature in your
word processor, whatever word processor you are using. Usually it is in the
something bar, look under 'Edit'. Most of the time, you just have to press
Ctrl-F for the 'Find' or 'Search' window to open up. Just type the item and
just read the text near it and maybe they will lead you to something.

*****************************************************************************
Q. Darn it, I need money, where can I get some?

A. If you kill monsters, go to a shop and use the option 'Sell Monsters'.
Note that if you sell, you will be selling all of them. Also, you can
get money by selling items like stones, coins, or the rare but sellable
equipment like the Legendary stuff and the like.

*****************************************************************************
Q. Those blinking things around towns, I found out that they were items and
you said that it appears at random, are you sure?

A. No, I am not. Verify them if you like. Thanks!

*****************************************************************************
Q. Can I ask you about other games besides Threads of Fate?

A. Go ahead, I will entertain everything that is at my e-mail (well,
except advertisements though) and I think I would love to do that.

*****************************************************************************
Q. Can I buy items that restore HP and MP in dungeons?

A. You can't. There are no such things in Threads of Fate. What you could
do is to get the potions (blue to restore HP and red to restore MP),
step on heal panels (to restore HP) or use Mint's blue magic (Blue -
Restore) to gain HP.

*****************************************************************************
Q. Why are the story parts near the end full of this (...)? (you can spoil
the story for me)

A. But some people doesn't want to and I think that you guys should find it
out for yourselves.

*****************************************************************************
Q. Do you retain all the items you have in New Game +?

A. No, not all but you will retain all coins, all stones and other things
except from other rare things that I am not really sure. For more info,
check out the So You've Finished the Game section.

*****************************************************************************
Q. I have finished one character and I am asking if I can play that
character again (before playing the other one)?

A. No, you can't but if you finished the other character, you will have the
New Game + mode and you can play both characters alternatively and that
would depend on you who to play at any given time.

*****************************************************************************
Q. I am fighting Pollywogs at Carona Forest for a long time now but I still
couldn't get a level up, what is wrong with this game?

A. Mainly, there are no 'Level ups' in Threads of Fate. You can increase
your maximum HP by taking damage, your MP by using MP consuming
abilities, your Strength and Defense by buying upgrades from Hobbs, by
buying items (bracers for strength and belts for defense) from Tonio.
You can also increase your Maximum HP, MP, Strength and Defense by
giving Jargen the 'Legendary Items' (Legendary Sword, Legendary Shield
and the Legendary Helmet) and give him the necessary ingredients. Also,
for more info, check out the You Need to Know These Stuff section
pertaining to the Increasing Parameters.

*****************************************************************************
Q. What is with this spoiler space?

A. Just a warning that the walkthroughs contains spoilers [^_^].

Now that you are controlling Rue, talk to Claire and go talk to the bench.

*Story*
Claire will serve the food and suddenly, they will hear the sound of
animals and Rue decides to check on the animals outside. Rue wonders what is
happening because the animals seems to be very disturbed but there are no
wolves or anything that might threaten them. Then a man wearing black, with
a large claw and a gem on his forhead will attack Rue. Rue fights back but
he will drop down so Claire went outside and attack the man with a hoe. Rue
desperately wants to stand up and tells Claire to run away but the man
attacks Claire with his claws [;_;]. Rue gets enraged and attacks the man
wildly. After that, the man will be gone and Rue tries to wake Claire up but
it is no use...
*Story*

**********
* 'Ship' *
**********

*Story*
Rue will be talking to himself and he will say that he hasn't found a
[Relic] yet. Then, he will overhear two hoodlums talking about a [Relic]
somewhere in the forest. Rue will decide to go there but a red thing will
bump them and Mint will fall off the ship.
*Story*

You will arrive at the docks of the Town of Carona and

*Story*
Davis, the guy who watches the docks will welcome Rue to town and tells
him to be careful with the two guys, the hoodlums who has traveled with him.

First things first so what you should do, if you like is to save. To save,
go to the 'Inn' see #5 on Map. Enter the 'Inn' go to the counter and press
confirm button at the log book (that is what it looks like for me), select
register. (See Saving in 'You need to know these stuff' section. You can
choose to go to the church. Talk to Doyle (the person in there), say that
you like to pray, then he will ask you if you like to make a donation but
since you only have 100 G so don't bother. There is nothing to do at the
Hotel. Elena's House is locked. The store doesn't sell anything yet but the
storekeeper will tell you about the antique shop. He will say that the
antique shop is in another side of town and the shop's keeper Klaus is out
together with his wife Mira to research about the [Relic] in the forest. He
also will say that the antique shop is being run by Klaus' daughter, Elena
[because Klaus is not there] but she isn't there because she has gone to the
forest to go looking for her parents. You can talk to the people there and
they will say some interesting things so try talking to them (specially to
Marco). After that, proceed to B (see Map).

Here, first check the barrel, it contains a Silver Coin. Go to the tavern
if you like and talk to Annette (the waitress) many times and she will treat
you to drink either 'Milk' or 'Root beer'. Milk restores 10% of your MP and
the Root beer restores your MP 25% (so choose the 'Root beer'). There is
also a sign beside the Tavern's door (leads you to the outside of the
Tavern). There will be a fight at Grass Fields, the fighting fee is 100 G
and the winners prize is 1000 G. Leave the tavern. Hobbs' Shop is locked so
leave the place and go next to C (see Map).

Maybe you would like to check out the docks because sometimes it contains
random coins that can be found.

Now you are back to the main town of Carona, if you like why not 'Save'
again. Leave the place (D) and now head to Carona Forest.

Walk, then jump the three stumps, then your first battle. You will be
fighting against the Pollywog, (see Fighting, and Increasing Parameters in
'You need to know these stuff' section) they are EASY, just whack them. The
game will say that when you attack an enemy, your will gain MP. Also the
enemies drop potions. The Blue Potion restores some of your HP and the Red
Potion restores some of your MP. The restoration of your HP when picking up
the blue potions or restoration of your MP by picking up red potions or
attacking enemies physically depends on how strong the enemy is [If the enemy
is pitiful, you will gain 1 or when it is strong, you will gain 2 or more].
The enemies keep coming back so after beating enough (two of them I think)
advance to the place where you need to use magic to defeat the enemies (see
Transform, 'You need to know these stuff' section). Get the Pollywog monster
coin which has the power of float and use that so that you can easily cross
the water (shallow water), take the 3x Bronze Coins in the treasure box (or
whirling pink thingie) [would you mind if I call it box or chest or
something and not whirling pink thingie]. Onto the next section.

Just walk, fight, walk, jump, walk, fight, jump or something. Just reach
the exit. Nothing special here except two new enemies, the Saber Tiger and
the Mandola. The Saber Tiger is fast and deals 3-8 damage to you. You can
kill it in about 3 hits. The Mandola attacks in long range, and can be
killed within 3 hits. Before you leave the area, make your you have at least
a 30 HP, you'll need it, trust me.

*Story*
Here you will see the antique shop's daughter, Elena, together with Blood
and Smokey. They are going to steal money from her. Rue will be hiding at
the back of the rock and he decides to help her. But he needs to tranform so
that he could go near and whack the bad guys.
*Story*

Transform yourself into a Pollywog.

*Story*
Rue, in a pollywog form, will approach the Blood and Smokey and attack
them. Blood and Smokey will get mad and decided to kill the pollywog (which
is Rue).
*Story*

Here is your first *BOSS* battle against Blood and Smokey.

*Boss Battle- Smokey & Blood*
Challenge: Easy

What you do here is run until only one is at your back [try to trap one
using obstacles]. When he is alone, just attack until he is defeated.

*Story*
Blood and Smokey will run away and Rue will turn back into his human form
and Elena will be surprised and will call Rue Polly from now on. She will
think that maybe you are a monster but for her she will tell Rue that it does
not matter. Elena will ask Polly [^_^] to help her find her parents who are
searching for the [Relic] and upon hearing this, Rue decides to help her.
After that, Rue will wonder about maybe that he is a monster.

*Story*
Rue will ask Klaus, Elena's father if he can do something to find the
[Relic]. He will tell you about the [Relics]. Since he has spent his life
searching for ruins, he found out certain things. Klaus says that 100 years
ago there was a magician that was also searching for the [Relics]. The
magician lived in an Atelier (a magician's workshop) which has a key to
somewhere that could probably lead to the [Relic] but the problem is that it
is below the steep cliff Klaus tried going down but they both broke their
ankles. Rue decides to jump down the cliff.

*Interesting stuff to check out*
Try running around the perimeter of the place and looking at your shadow.
The shadow depends on the lighting of the place. Pretty cool huh!

What you do here is to run around and after that enter the Atelier but ...
*BOSS* battle, Nightmare.

*Boss Battle - Nightmare*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Just try running around, while evading the attacks and when Nightmare
closes, jump away. Transform yourself into a Saber Tiger and use Thrust.
Thrust its sides (don't go head to head).

*Story*
Klaus, Mira and Elena will catch up here and Klaus and Rue will go inside
the Atelier while Mira and Elena will wait outside

Examine the Vault (V)

*Story*
Rue tries to open the vault by force but Klaus will examine it and he will
push a switch. Then Elena will call Rue so Rue steps outside and Elena will
tell him that Rue's friend is outside, a pollywog.
*Story*

Go back inside the Atelier.

*Story*
Klaus will tell Rue that they found something pretty important but someone
will arrive and demand that you give it to her. Rue will ask for her name
and she will say 'Princess' Mint. Rue and Klaus doesn't want to give up what
they found so Mint will try to attack them so she jumps down but she will
drop flat on the ground. She will leave and tell you that she will get it
later. Klaus will ask Rue to carry what they have just recently found back
to Klaus' house.
*Story*

You will automatically end up in town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

*Story*
Mira, Klaus wife is talking to Ms. Cartha, the innkeeper. She asks Ms.
Cartha to let Rue stay at the inn for free so now you can recover HP at the
inn. Mira tells Rue to proceed to their house (Klaus' house).
*Story*

I suggest that you go to the inn first to save. Go inside the inn, talk to
Ms. Cartha and she will ask you to Recover / Recover & Register / Go to your
room. Choose Recover & Register then save your game [sadly, the inn only
restores your HP]. After that, if you like, check out your room. Nothing
really important, just talk to the bed and sleep [it doesn't replenish your
MP either :(].

Leave the place and go check out Hobbs' place. Even though you can't buy
anything here yet, just make a trip their to find out more stuff about the
game. In Hobbs' place, you can choose to [upgrade] your base strength, base
defense, maximum HP and maximum MP. Your base strength will increase by 1
and the same goes for the base defense. Your maximum HP and maximum MP will
increase by 10. It costs 30,000 G for each one (base strength or base
defense or maximum HP or maximum MP). It is ultra-mega-hyper [ok, you
probably understand already] expensive but if you give the Rare Wine to him
later in the game, you can buy one for 5,000 G.

Now you can go to the tavern and replenish your MP (but I suggest not to).
Talk to the bartender and he will offer you Milk for 50 G (restores 10% MP),
Rootbeer 120 G (restores 25% MP) and Tropical Delight 220 G (restores 50%
MP). Leave the tavern.

Now to got to the shop. At the item shop, talk to the shopkeeper, his name
is Tonio. First sell your coins (monster coins not the Bronze or Silver
Coins). Check out what he is selling. At this point, he is selling

Item Shop
Item Description Cost
Bronze Bracer - Bonus Strength +4 - 1,000 G
Silver Bracer - Bonus Strength +8 - 3,000 G
Bronze Belt - Bonus Defense +4 - 1,000 G
Silver Belt - Bonus Defense +8 - 3,000 G

If you have 3,000 G, go buy the Silver Bracer. After that leave the shop.

Now if you have confidence in yourself, try going to the Grasslands. Here
try fighting Rod.

*Story*
Here, Rod introduces himself and his dog Johnny Wolf. He says that he is
a weapon blacksmith and a swordsman. Rod will challenge Rue because he saw
the large weapon that Rue is carrying. If you decide to fight, you have to
pay 100 G (you will win 1,000 G if you beat him). Pay the 100 G and do
battle.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Rod*
Challenge: Hard

Approach him with caution. Do not go near him when he is spiraling
either the ground or jumping one. Try leading him to the obstacle (in the
middle). He will stop spiraling so now run and attack him using a 3-hit
combo, then evade his attack by jumping back twice. After that attack again
using a 3-hit then evade his attack by jumping back again twice. Then run
around until he does again the spiraling move (either the jumping one or
ground one). Repeat the above steps again till you win.

If you win against him, you will get 1,000 G but if you lose then you
wasted your money. So after that, go back to town and go to Klaus' House.
Go to the basement and talk to Klaus.

*Story*
He will tell you that according to the diary Rue found at the Atelier
below the cliff, an Aeon [Relic] is sealed by a high order of magic, which
even the magicians cannot break. And according to the diary, the magician
will go to the Atelier of the Master Magician Elroy. Now you are instructed
to go to Elroy's Atelier and get more info about the [Relic].

After that, go talk to Marco, the kid outside town. Talk to him twice
until he tells you about a something hidden in the stump in Carona Forest.
So now, head for the Hotel and ask for a room (it costs 500 G).

______=______

First get the bed and examine the bed to sleep. You will dream about some
monkey, jumping down the hollow stump. [You might wonder that why did I let
you sleep in the hotel if you could have just slept at the inn. 1) is that
because you can get the Dream Stone here and 2) No you will not get the dream
if you slept at the inn.] After that leave the Hotel and go talk to Graham
outside town for some tips in playing the game.

You need to buy the Silver Belt so if you don't have enough money, fight
enemies at Carona Forest and while you are there, why don't you go search for
the items that I listed that you should get later, get them now, the Silver
Coin and Bronze Coin (outside the Atelier).

Here, get a Mandola coin and go to the place where you always fight Blood
and Smokey. At that room, transform into a Mandola and use Bloom. If it is
near you and jumping at you, attack it using Seed. Get its coin and
transform into Ootang and climb the tree at the northeast. You will be in a
new area.

From where you dropped (s), go talk to Mint 3 times (m).

*Story*
Mint will say to Rue that there is something blocking their way. But
after that conversation, the boulder begins to move and will most likely
flatten anything on its way.
*Story*

RUN!, NOW!, don't mind Mint getting flattened. I think the debris that are
dropping down the ceiling drops at random (I did it 6 times and I got 2
patterns.) There is a time that both ceilings will fall, jump to avoid it.
Head for the place you started add and let the boulder crash and destroy the
obstacle.

Go step on the recovery spot if you want to replenish your HP, then head
for the exit (there is only one exit here).

On the next room,

*Story*
Mint will arrive without Rue noticing and she attempts to betray rue by
kicking him and let him fall into the water. Rue will notice that his shoes
are untied and he ducks while Mints performs the jump kick. Ironically, Mint
will fall down and Rue will thought of something about hearing someone like
Mint.

jump to avoid it to another place. After that, he / it (whatever) will be
tired and he / it will be blinking and go pound him / it silly. Sometimes it

*Story*
Belle and Duke will demand from Rue to hand over the items he got from the
Atelier, but Rue doesn't want to. Because of that, Duke will want to fight
you using his new act that he learned from a book called "Shadow Night" which
is about the ninjas.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Duke*
Challenge: Medium

You can avoid his attacks by jumping aside. Just use attack 1 to dispose
of him.

*Story*
Belle will say "Good work" to Duke and she will steal the Tiara from Rue.
After that they are going to leave and Rue will go after them.
*Story*

Back to the past room, it would seem like another boss battle with Skull
Beast but now, it is invincible and it is stronger. Try whacking it once and
get the hell out. Go to the left and step on the platform with the star
icon.

Now, run like hell to the top by taking the inner belt (the one closer to
the center) and try avoiding the spiked iron balls by passing when you can
get a good clearing (it is quite alright to take a hit or two). Pollywog
works great here so make sure you have one and you can jump over the iron
balls too!

*Story*
It is a dead end, and the Skull Beast is close, Rue will take a side step
so the Skull Beast will fall below.
*Story*

You will automatically end up in town.

********************

Go to Klaus' House.

*Story*
In the basement, he will tell Rue that he now knows where the relic was
and it is inside the Lake Ruins. Also he will tell Rue that the Cube is
somewhat like a key needed to enter the ruins in the lake. Rue will say
sorry because he lost the Tiara. Klaus will say that it is ok because they
do not know what the cube is for anyway. He will then tell Rue that he knows
someone that may know how to use the Cube so maybe you should ask Mel a
magician and is living at her Atelier, but he doesn't want to go there so it
is up to you to go there because of some reason.

After doing that, go to Mel's Atelier.

will be in a ULTRA-WEIRD place [what an UGLY place]. Go step on (s) the
Star.

Go knock at the door (where else are you supposed to knock, the roof?
HELLOOOOOO!) of Mel's Atelier.

*Story*
Rue will notice that the place was very unusual. Rue also now knew why
Klaus did not want to go to this place. Rue knocks at the door and she
notices a strange sound after that, a dwarf-like creature appears and tells
him that Mel is not home and he should play the games while waiting.
*Story*

[Ok, I don't want to play, can I just stand outside and wait for an hour or
something. [No you can't, you have to play the DAMN game] ;_;].

Go save first because you *may* reset and bash your CD because of this
ultra-annoying mini-games [especially the Big Swings and Giant Balls].

Go play the easiest first, Blow Trumpet. Talk to the Poppul Purrels
outside until you find the one that asks you to play Blow Trumpet.

[Sorry no maps for the mini-games. I was so annoyed that I can't do it.]

The games here are timed, and if you hurry, you can get more time at the
bonus game. In the bonus game, if you reached or gone above the high score
which is 500 points, you can get a Silver Coin, but if not, you can get a
Bronze Coin.

Here, wait for the waves or hurry up to avoid it. The enemy here called
the cockadoo is annoying. Go blast it with anything you have, just kill the
damn thing. On the seesaw, it may seem like impossible to reach, but it is
possible. Another seesaw is like something I do not know what to call it
[anybody knows?], first jump at the left side of it, then at the right side,
then again at the left side, and again at the right side and do the following
until you are confident enough to jump to the other side. A little walk
after that and you will be at the bonus game. In the bonus game, you have to
step on the trumpets to keep the cockadoo away. If you blast many cockadoos
at a time, you can get more points. If the cockadoo lands on your head you
lose.

After this, go save and go to the Big Swings.

Here, be careful in jumping because the enemies here, called the Imp has an
attack that throws stars at you, try to be patient enough so that you don't
get hit by it. Also, careful in the swings too. It is very easy to slip by
a few centimeters and you will fall. At the bonus game, you have to get the
balls to earn points. Do not get the black balls. If you get balls of the
same color in consecutive order, you can get bonus points.

After that, save and now is the time that you go to the hardest one (for
me), the Giant Balls.

Careful in jumping again because of the Imps. In jumping from a Giant
Ball, make sure you don't jump late because you will fall off. There are
also cubes near the end where you can step on. It will fall so jump to the
next place as soon as possible. The bonus game here requires you to beat up
the fungies. Strategy, avoid fungi build up, go all out, whack 'em all.

After this, the cockadoo save point will be gone. If you try to knock
again at the door.

*Story*
Mel will arrive and Rue will be staring at her so she will ask and Rue
will say that he was just looking at the fancy stuff all around her. Rue
will ask her for help. Inside, she will discourage you to go get Valen's
[Relic] (Rue wonders why the name Valen sounds familiar) because it has the
ability to destroy the world. Rue will say that he doesn't care because he
has spent the 3 years searching for it. After that, she will agree to help
you but you should help her by finding the Poppul Purrel that she asked to go
to town the other day. Rue will agree to the deal and he will leave. Mel
will talk to herself about Rue, being a poor guy because he still doesn't
have a clue.
*Story*

Now go back to town [what a relief!].

Before going to your room at the inn and sleeping, go to the Grasslands
area and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Here, Rod will tell Rue something about his past. He will tell Rue the
reason why he is, both swordsman and weapon smith. He then tells Rue about
his father, Pleskin being the greatest swordsman in the world. Rod wanted to
challenge his father for the title but he did not have the chance to do so
because his father died already. So now, he seeks to become, just like his
father, to be written down in history and excel as being the greatest
swordsman and weapon smith.
*Story*

Now that you have done that, go back to the inn, proceed to your room
talk to Ms. Cartha and say 'Go to your room') and sleep (examine your bed).

about Claire to come back.

After that, go leave the town and go to Mel's Atelier. Enter the Atelier
and in there

*Story*
Mel and the Poppul Purrel that Rue helped will thank him and Rue will
inquire about the cube. Mel said that all you need to know is in the report
so she hands Rue Mel's Report and the Cube.

After that, Mel will ask Rue the question that she was supposed to tell
Rue. She will ask Rue that is Rue human. Rue will ask Mel why does she ask
something like that to him and Mel will say that there is something odd about
Rue's spirit, she can see Rue's spirit together with a shadowy one. After
that, she will say something that she is sorry if she has offended Rue, but
Rue will say that it is all right and he will tell a story.

Rue will say that five years ago, he woke up in some ruins and he can't
remember anything. He tries to remember what to do, who he is and where to
go. But suddenly, he fell down and Claire found him. Even though he is a
complete stranger, Claire welcomed him. When she found out that Rue had
nowhere to go and stay, she let Rue stay at her house. He will say that he
wandered so long and at that time he found a home and Claire that is like his
sister. But one night 'he' came and killed Claire, he looked like Rue, and
he has a gem on his forehead. Rue will say that he wanted to kill the guy
and so he emitted light and the guy was gone and he came to Claire and asked
her to open her eyes but she was dead. Light emits on Claire's body and
something came out and entered Rue's forehead, it was her spirit.

Now, Mel has understood why Rue is so determined to get the [Relic] but
still she asks Rue to think it over. After that somebody will knock at the
door and Rue will leave.

Outside Rue will see Mint together with Elena. Mint wanted to ask Rue
what Mel told her but Rue doesn't want to tell so Mint is going to ask Mel.
Elena will accompany Rue back to town.

Rue will then explain to Elena that he is not a Pollywog but he can
transform into one and Elena understood and apologized to Rue. But suddenly,
Elena will see a star moving and it is duke. He demands to get Mel's report
and the Cube from Rue but Rue does not want to give it.

Back in town go to Klaus house and go talk to Klaus.

*Story*
Rue will give Klaus the report and the cube. Klaus says that the Cube
can be opened so they opened it and something came out of it, something which
is not human but a mechanical doll. It was written on the report that Grand
Master Magician Elroy created the doll and the doll's name is Prima Doll and
it is the one that can break the seal to Valen's Relic. But since Prima Doll
is still incomplete, Mint can't break the seal now. Rue needs to get the
parts for Prima Doll which is kept in the Ateliers of the apprentices of
Elroy. A pair of gauntlets, a pair of sollerets are kept in the Ghost Temple
while the Earrings is at the Atelier in Gamul Forest and the final item, the
Amulet can be created from a Phantomite. Rue will say that he will go to the
Ghost Temple and get the 2 pairs of items while Mint will go to the Gamul
Forest to get the earrings.

In this second battle, it will lose the ability to charge you fast and
attack you with its sickle. It has a new attack in place of that, it can
cause bolts to fall from the sky [uhhh... roof actually]. You can avoid that
attack by running around the place or running far from its starting point.
Attack it when it is not moving or after he throws down his bolts.

Now it has the combined attacks of the last two and new attacks. Again to
avoid the fast moving charge, just jump back and aside. Also to avoid the
bolts, just run far from the bolts starting point or run around the place.
Fire Wall attack is one of its new attack. Just stay away from it (it would
encircle him and he won't move). It can also throw fire now so just jump
aside to avoid it. You can attack and run back and just attack and run back
again and again.

she hasn't been there yet. Elena will ask Rue to explore together but Rue
wants Elena to go back to town and he will accompany her because the place is
dangerous. Elena will get convinced and as you go back to where you entered,
the door will close and Elena and Rue cannot go back. Rue decided to take
her but asks her not to move unless he say so. Elena agrees and both of them
will go together. Rue will says to Elena that he will transform more often
and asks her if she would be all right. She will say that she will be ok but
asks Rue to transform into cute forms.

|you and if you are pretty far from that person, you can't proceed to the
|next room. But the good thing is that Elena doesn't trip over or something.
|
| Elena can get stuck at corners so just go near her and guide her. Also,
|you can't leave the room if she is far from you (Rue actually '_').

teleport using (t) at the room to the right of where you appeared. You will
appear at (u) and there, go back to the rooms before that using door (m) and
you will be at the room with a lever and a small hole you passed from (l) the
door above, go out using (k) the door below. You will be at the place where
monsters are banging the door, enter the right door, which is (e).

Inside that room, kill the enemies (3 Puppets) and inspect the weak wall
again. The wall will crumble and you will see Elena inside together with 3
Skeletons. [Go forth , doth haveth the powereth, killeth 'em all] (well
except for Elena ^_^).

*Story*
Elena will apologize to Rue for being a bother because of thinking that
she would be a help to him. Rue will say that it is ok as long as she is
safe. Elena will be all right now so they decided to go on.
*Story*

Go back to the room where there are floating steps (3) and the door (v).
You will notice that the (3)s are spinning and moving around. Just jump
across them using Rue and after that, Elena has to cross. Just press the
Triangle button to make Elena jump. You can also notice that one of them is
also spinning slower than the other so it might be better if you let Elena
step on that. After doing that, enter door (v).

In the next room

*Story*
Rue and Elena will see Duke battling with a Chimera. Duke will
confidently destroy the Chimera, grab the Right Gauntlet and talk to Rue. He
will say that he is going to get the other stuff from Rue and after that, he
will also beat Rue up. He will say that he has a new act from the book "Fist
of Fire" and the new move is the 'Sunrise Uppercut'. He will say that he is
a little sleepy but his fist is powerful. He will also ask Elena to stay
back before the battle.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Duke*
Challenge: Medium - Hard

Avoid his fists and uppercut by jumping back. Also when he lights up, he
will punch the ground and will either do a circular attack or a straight one
directional attack. You can attack him when he finishes doing an uppercut
and you can do that only twice because he has another uppercut which will
follow. Do not attack the obstacles because they will deal you damage. You
can also try to let him destroy the obstacles so that he will be the one to
take up damage.

*Story*
After the battle, Duke cannot but desperately tries to get up. Rue will
say to him that the battle is over but Duke is still determined to get the
stuff from you. Elena will try to help Duke but Duke will refuse her offer
because he does not need Elena's pity. But Elena will say that she wants to
help Duke so Duke will get up and say thanks. After that, the Wall will move
and there seems to be a trap mechanism and it would crush all of them. Rue
will try to open the previous door but it is locked. Duke tries to stop the
wall by pushing it and asks Rue to open the other door. Rue will try to open
the door but it is also locked and Duke will tell him to bash it, destroy it
or something because he cannot push any longer.
*Story*

Just continually use Attack 1 and it will eventually open. Or according to
KTeoh:

At the final section, where Duke holds the moving wall as hard as
he can, he will tell you to whack the door, right? Well, you can
press Attack and waste your finger's energy, OR you can...

...just stand there and hear Duke's agony... (heh heh)

Just when you think you're gonna die, Elena will say that the door
is actually a SLIDING door, the door opens and everybody gets out.
(I think thats one of those little times that Elena proves very
useful ^_^)

*Story*
Elena will go out and say something about how good the sunlight feels and
stuff. She will also ask you to go back to town. She will thank Duke but
Duke will say that he just wanted to save himself. Elena will tell Duke to
stop pretending because she knows that Duke is a good guy. Elena will tell
Duke to take care of his injuries and then she will be going back to town
with Rue. Duke will stop you and give the Right Gauntlet, Rue will thank him
but Duke will say that it is not for Rue but for Elena for worrying about
him.

*Cut Scene*
At the hotel, Belle is mad at Duke for giving Rue the Gauntlet and she
will beat Duke up. She will ask Duke to explain why he gave it after he
worked so hard just to get it. Duke couldn't explain because he will say
that he was just help by Rue and Elena and when they were outside, he just
got a strange feeling and gave it. He will say that he is stupid and
promises to beat Rue up next time and get the stuff back. He will say that
he can do that because he is psyched just like in the book.

Belle will ask what book

"'Fist of Fire', baby!!! Rue, I'm gonna like 'Fist of Fire' with you." -
Duke
"YOU MORON, (what was that all about? Maybe he really is a nut case." -
Belle

Solin will arrive and asks them to pay up 2,500 G for their stay. Belle
will tell him that she is going to pay for it sometime tomorrow. Now, Belle
asks Duke to fix up Hexagon, their secret weapon and get money FAST!.
*Cut Scene*

Rue will be back at town and he will see Claire going into the alley that
leads to the tavern and Hobbs' shop.
*Story*

********************

Follow where Claire went, the alley that leads to the tavern.

There, you will not see Claire but talk to Marco.

*Story*
Rue will ask Marco if there was a girl in a purple robe and that is about
his height. Marco will say that he did not see anybody so Rue will wonder
what he saw.
*Story*

If you check Rod out, he has a new weapon which is called the 'Golden
Gale'.

Go to Klaus' House.

*Story*
Mint will be there and tells Rue that Belle put her up to a tough fight at
the forest. After that, they will put the Pair of Gauntlets, Pair of
Sollerets and the Earrings to Prima Doll. Klaus will then ask the both of
you to get the Phantomite at the Raging Mountains and somebody there named
Wylaf is there and a collector of rare gems and minerals and he might have
some. Mint decides to go but Klaus will tell her that Wylaf is a powerful
dragon so she will back down and pass the work to Rue. Mint will also tell
Rue that she will be the one that is going to confront Belle and Duke to get
the Tiara which 'Rue lost'.

*Interesting Stuff to Check Out*
Notice that the camera view is different now and you will be facing Rue's
front side instead of his back. This is very confusing but it is quite fun
after a while because you don't see the things that are in front of Rue.

Just go back to the main entrance and you can leave through there but MAKE

There are two kinds of enemies here, the Stinger and the Mandola. The
Stinger is hard to hit so just measure the time when they are near your
attacking range, hit them. When you reach the whithered plant, blast it with
your Specter - Water. It will take a few hits and the plant will grow. Now,
step on the plant (just jump to get to it) then get on the higher elevation
part (L) and take the (&) The Last Hero. After that leave the area. You can
leave the area by going right until you reach the wall and jump towards the

there.

First go straight and fight the enemies if you like (Ootangs and Fire
Blobs) just go and jump the pits (p) and on the next place, just jump across
(you may like to step on (f) but you better hurry or you will fall with it).
At the next place, you will see it is blocked by a boulder (b) that you can't
destroy so just jump down and fight the Bubba there, kill it and get its
coin. Use Bubba - Hammer or Bubba - Final Strike to destroy the boulder at
your right. Now go back again to the top and hop the pits (p) and go destroy
the boulder (b) near the exit. Go to the exit (duh!).

destroy the boulder and in the (F area) just avoid the steam coming out of

In this area, the winds sometimes blow, so avoid jumping too much. You can

enemies that are blocking your way and prevent you from blowing away. Jump
the pits only when the wind is not blowing or else you will fall or fall back
(the Bubba is a major blockage on the way so take it out, even if you fall,
it does not matter). Just head for the exit.

*EXTRA PLACE FOR BOSS BATTLE*

Here you will see Belle and Duke.

*Story*
Belle will tell Rue that he knows what she wants so just hand them over
but Rue will say that he needs it no matter what. After saying that, Belle
will call Hexagon and tells Rue that she found it at the Sea Coral Ruins and
that it is their ultimate weapon.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Belle with Hexagon and Duke*
Challenge: Medium

Duke will do uppercuts but now they are not much of a problem but he is
still annoying so go all out against him first. Just beat up Duke using
Attack 1. After he is over, use your jump attacks at Belle with Hexagon. Do
not do that when you face to face with Hexagon and that you should only try
using jump attack after it grabs air (since you are not there) or when you
are at its back. If you drained the life bar of Belle with Hexagon, Belle
will jump down and fight you. Just avoid her fire attacks and don't go near
her when there are white spinning things around her and just keep watch
because she will throw them at you. Just attack her.

They will leave after the battle and you will automatically go to the next
area.

At the mountaintop...

*Story*
Rue will call Wylaf and Wylaf will arrive and say something about how dare
humans disturb him but he will say that Rue is not human. Rue will apologize
for the disturbance but he wants Wylaf's help. Wylaf will read Rue's mind
and say that he has a lot of Phantomite but he would not give it to Rue. It
is because that he can destroy the world in attempting to do, the reason why
he wants to get the [Relic]. Wylaf will say that Rue is a selfish runt but
Rue will say that you just want to save Claire and that he doesn't intend on
destroying the world. Wylaf will tell Rue that his words are meaningless and
that it can only be proven with a weapon.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Wylaf*
Challenge: Medium

You can avoid getting damage and deal damage to Wylaf when WHILE he is
swooping down at you, you use Attack 1 and slash the air until he gets near
you and you will eventually slash him and he will go back into the air.
Also, when he breathes a fireball, avoid the place where it will fall and
avoid the (+) effect that it has (there would be a cross (+) in which the
fireball is the intersection). Avoid also the vortex when he casts one
because it will throw you into the air. When his life is below 1/2, the
battle will be over.

NOTE THAT YOU SHOULD NOT ATTACK ONCE HE SAYS THE FIGHT IS OVER OR ELSE
PREPARE TO GET ROASTED, errr ... I mean meet the Game Over Screen. Thanks to
KTeoh for giving this to me, check the Cool Stuff section to see more about
this.

*Story*
Wylaf will say that your heart is true and splendid and he will give you
the Phantomite. Rue will thank Wylaf but Wylaf will say that there is no
need because Rue deserves it. Wylaf will say that Rue's heart is true
(again!) and that he knows that Rue will not misuse the power of the relic
and that a 1,000 year old knowledge guarantees it. Wylaf will leave, (and
maybe so for Rue too).

*Cut Scene*
You will see Belle and Duke at the tavern and blame each other because
they failed. Belle will say that they do not have enough money to buy food,
they have not yet paid the hotel and that they have to repair Hexagon. Duke
will say that if they did not stay at the nice hotel, they could have had
enough money. Belle will punch him and say that unlike Duke, she came from a
good family and she does not want to stay at a cheapo inn. After that,
Annette will ask them to leave because they are disturbing the other
customers or they should just have to quiet down. Mint will arrive and they
she is going to talk to Belle and Duke about something...
*Cut Scene*

At the town, the hoodlums will arrive and give Rue a letter of challenge.
Rue is challenged to fight Blood and Smokey at the usual place at Carona

will tell Rue that he was expecting some tough big guy but he will tell Rue
that it doesn't matter because he is going to bash Rue. Trap Master will
tell Rue that Rue is on his trap and Trap Master will take Rue at his own
battle field because he usually destroys the surroundings when he fighst
outside
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Trap Master*
Challenge: Easy

All you have to do here is to stand on the center and use Bubba - Hammer.
He will just die. Just avoid jumping too much and stepping on blinking
platforms. You can die in this battle if you want.

After that Trap Master will say that Rue was nothing and he can easily
kill her in a few seconds but he cannot kill Rue yet. The two, Blood and
Smokey will fight Rue because Trap Master will go away.

there is no need for that because she already got it from Belle and Duke.
Rue will ask Mint how she got it but Mint would not say it.

They will then put the Tiara on Prima Doll but ask what the Tiara is for.
Prima will say that the Tiara is used for decision making and certain
abilities, both mental and physical are on the Tiara which exceeds the
current intelligence which is only a mere backup. After a couple of small
talk, Mint will get mad at Prima Doll and shows him the finger. Also, after
that, Prima Doll will bug Klaus to finish the amulet as soon as possible but
he will suddenly stop. All of them will wonder what happened so they have to

to her that it must be because of Prima Doll's energy being radiated after
its long rest in the cube. She will tell Rue that there might be a way to
restore Prima Doll's energy and that you need Gorotan's power, some guy that
can control the power of lightning. She also will say that she is not sure
whether it will work but it is worth the try and tells Rue to be careful
because Gorotan does not like visitors. Mel asks Rue to just find out where
Gorotan leaves from one of her assistants.

"When going to Mel's Atelier as Rue when Prima is out of energy I found a gold
coin on the pink petalled plant with blue leaves and the purple 'crown'."

Go outside the Atelier and talk to the Poppul Purrel that you helped
earlier. I think it is the one near the back.

to play with Gorotan now, say Yes and Rue will be in a room with a flying guy
thing.

Go talk to the flying thing and it will transform into a big cat.

*Boss Battle - Gorotan*
Challenge: Medium

Avoid the star thingies that are around him and it will just go farther
away from him, leaving himself unprotected from your beating. Go near him
and attack him until he dies.

Go back to town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Rue, in a Gorotan form, will be blasting bolts to Prima Doll and Prima
Doll will be charged up. He should be ok now and he only needs to get the
Amulet in order to break the seal.
*Story*

I am not sure but iamnothing went to the tavern after this so head for the
tavern and maybe something will happen.

After going there, go leave the town and head for the Lakeside.

**************
* 'Lakeside' *
**************

In the lakeside, you will see Mint together with Elena. Go near them.

*Story*
Elena will tell Rue and Mint how she will feel after they get the [Relic].
She will say that she will be lonely because they will leave Carona. Mint
will say to her that it doesn't matter because she will conquer the world and
create a castle. Mint will also ask the two whether they want to become
ministers at her kingdom. Elena will answer first and tell Mint that she
wants to become the minister of house keeping. Mint will ignore Elena and
then ask Rue whether he wants to become a minister after getting the [Relic].

If you chose the option about Rue saying something like being a minister
would be a great idea, Mint will tell Rue that she wants Rue to become the
dog walking minister, Upon hearing this Rue will say that he will change his
mind and say that he just wants to stay home.

But if you chose the other option which is about Rue saying something about
turning down the offer, Rue will say that he will just have to stay home
after getting the [Relic] and whisper to himself "... stay home (with
Claire)."

Anyway, after that, Mint will ask about how the amulet is doing to Elena
and Elena will say that it would probably be finished after some time. Mint
will say that she can't keep THEM waiting. Rue will inquire what Mint meant
about THEM but Mint will say that she remembered something. It was obvious
that Mint is trying to hide something so Rue will wonder just what it was
about.
*Story*

Now that you are alone, go head back to town too.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Klaus will tell Rue that the Amulet is near completion and he will ask Rue
to take Prima Doll to the Lakeside.
*Story*

Go leave the house and talk to Marcum, the fat guy that buys stuff from you
and he will give you 50 G. After that, I think there is a Bronze Coin
somewhere (but since item appearance, I think is at random so maybe it is not
there).

Interesting Stuff to Check Out (thanks to PyRo MaNiA for this one)

Prima Doll is following you right, why don't you go to the Grasslands and
talk to Johnny Wolf and he will follow Prima Doll, then talk to Rod, he will
join the 'train' party. Now, Rue will be followed by Prima Doll, which is
followed by Johnny Wolf, and Rod will be behind Johnny Wolf. You gotta see
this, it looks silly.

Go talk to the gate and head for the Lakeside (again!).

**************
* 'Lakeside' *
**************

*Story*
At the Lakeside, Prima Doll will be amazed at how good it feels to be out
there. He will tell that staying at the Cube did not gave him that kind of
feeling. Also, Prima Doll will challenge Rue for a race towards the Lake.
*Story*

A good way to win the race is to block his way and run while he is at your
back. You can also lose the race.

*Story*
Doesn't matter if you win or lose, it would be just small talk. After
that, Prima Doll will say something about him, that he is just a tool that
would be used to unseal the [Relic]. Rue will comfort him by saying that
Prima Doll is not a tool because Prima Doll is alive.

"As ling as you're alive, there's always a chance ... there's always
hope." - Rue

Prima Doll will realize this and will thank Rue for the words. After
that, he will say that he wants to go back to town.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

After that, go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Here, Klaus will say that he has finished doing the Amulet. Prima Doll
will try it on and he will feel great wearing it. Now they are ready to
break the seal so Klaus gets up and tries to walk but his ankle still hurts.
Elena will say that her father still needs to rest but Klaus will say that he
can't stop now because his dream is only a few steps away. Rue will ask
Klaus to rest and that he (Rue) and Prima Doll will take a boat ride to the
ruins.

In town, go to the Grasslands and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Rue will ask Rod about his machine that can travel fast on water. Rod
will say that he has one and its name is Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega. He
will tell Rue that it is powered by five Sorcerous Drivers that can make
Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega move and travel fast on water. Rod will tell
Rue that he needs to get Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega ready and asks Rue to
call the people who are coming with him.
*Story*

Go leave the grasslands and go back to Klaus' house. Go talk to Klaus at
the basement and say to him that you will depart for the ruins.

*Story*
Rue and Prima Doll together with Rod will be going to the Ruins together.
Prima Doll asks you if you were going to ride that cool looking boat and Rod
will say to him that it is not a boat but Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega.
Prima Doll ignores it and still calls it a boat. There, you will then ride
the boat to the Lake Ruins. After you see Rue, Rod and Prima Doll leave,
Mint will arrive and say something that Rue thought that they can leave them,
Mint together with Belle and Duke.
*Story*

****************
* 'Lake Ruins' *
****************

*Story*
At the Lake Ruins, Prima Doll tells Rue that he is ready to open the seal.
While Prima Doll is reciting the words that are to be used to break the seal,
Rue then speaks the latter part of the spell and he will then say that it
came out naturally from him. Well anyway, Prima Doll begins to recite the
spell but Princess Maya will arrive, accompanied by Doll Master and Psycho
Master. Princess Maya will say that it is the East Heaven Kingdom's duty to
protect the [Relic] from being unsealed for the past many years and she will
say that Rue cannot be allowed to break it. Rue will say that he has a good
reason for breaking it so he doesn't want to stop the spell but Princess Maya
will cast a spell to Rue using the Book of Cosmos. Rue, for some reason,
although he was a brought down by the spell, was latter able to conquer and
resist the power of the Book of Cosmos, East Heaven's greatest [Relic].
After that, Doll Master will cast a spell that would seal Rue's powers, so
Rue got sealed. Doll Master will then ask Prima Doll to open the seal but
Prima Doll will petrify himself. Mint will arrive, together with Belle and
Duke. Duke will use his "Fist of Fire" on Doll Master but gets psyched out
by Psycho Master. Belle will help Rue with the help of Hexagon. After that,
all of them (Belle, Duke, Mint and Rue) will get out of the place and Rue
will promise to Prima Doll that he will save him. Princess Maya will use the
Book of Cosmos to create a tower so that they can fortify the Lake Ruins.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************
*Story*
Upon their arrival to town, Rue will ask Mint why Belle and Duke is with
her. Mint will say to Rue that Belle and Duke is waiting for her at the bar
and why don't Rue join them to talk about the stuff.
*Story*

Before you go to the bar, why don't you go talk to Rod first at the
grasslands.

*Story*
Rod will encourage Rue to keep going because it is just his trial phase.
He has survived his trial phase already and that was when he wasn't able to
create good weapons. He will say that 'his woman' kept him going. She was
the one that encourages him when he is down and tells him to stop moping and
create a new weapon. He will say that Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega was her
only keepsake to him. Rod will clarify that she, her name is Lucine and she
is not dead but he can't go see her until he marked a name in history. He
will tell then to Rue that she just have to keep on going no matter what and
do not give up because someone will be watching over Rue. Rue will ask
himself if Claire is watching him ...
*Story*

After that, go to the Tavern.

*Story*
Belle, Duke and Mint, will invite Rue in their table and they are going to
talk about something. Belle will ask Rue why he is fighting so hard and Rue
will answer her that he is fighting because of Claire. He will tell the
story but [you] won't hear about it. After that, Belle and Duke will say
that now they understood what Rue has been going through and tell you taht
Mint always tried to double-cross him. Belle will say that once Rue got the
[Relic], they are going to steal them from him. Mint will defend herself and
say that if it was not for her, Rue may have been dead by that time. They
will say that Maya is guarding the ruins and that they have to figure out a
way to get the [Relic].
*Story*

I found a Bronze Coin somewhere above the town's spring. [But since, I
think, items appear at random, you might not find it there]. Now that most
things are clarified, it is time for a good night sleep. Head for the inn
and ask Ms. Cartha to go to your room. You will automatically sleep.

Go out the inn and take note that the left (Ms. Cartha's left) door is
broken so you have to leave through the right (Ms. Cartha's right) door.

First go check out Tonio's shop. He is selling new stuff.

Mythril Bracer - 5,500 G - Bonus Strength +20
Mythril Belt - 5,500 G - Bonus Defense +20

After buying those stuff, why don't you go fight Rod, he has a new weapon
called 'Black Tornado'. If you don't like to fight him, go to the Lakeside.

**************
* 'Lakeside' *
**************

*Story*
Here, Rue will wonder how to get the [Relic] and ...

*Cut Scene*
Doll Master will say to Princess Maya that he was surprised that Prima
Doll was able to petrify his self so that Prima Doll can protect the [Relic]
from being unsealed. Doll Master will suggest to Princess Maya that they
should get the [Relic] so that they can keep it and that it would not fall
into the wrong hands. Princess Maya will say that excessive power leads to
destruction and that it is their duty to prevent the seal from being broken
and they should never get into contact with the [Relic]. Princess Maya will
leave and Doll Master will talk to Psycho Master that if Maya cannot be used
to attain their goals, then they have to use Rue.
*Cut Scene*
*Story*

You will automatically back to town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

It would be night again. As usual, at night, go to the Grasslands and talk
to Rod.

*Story*
Together with Rod, Duke is there and they will say that they fought a
while ago and Rod won. Rod will tell both Rue and Duke that he had a hard
time fighting Duke because of his star outfit because it was a very thick and
sturdy armor. Rod will also tell Duke that he wants to borrow it because he
will try to make a weapon out of it.

"Sometimes you even gotta make a fool of yourself to come up with a
weapon." - Rod

After that, Duke will change the topic and tell both Rue and Rod that how
come there is nothing happening at the tower but Rod will say that they just
need to rest and wait for the enemies move because it can be a trap.
*Story*

After that, go to the inn, talk to Ms. Cartha, go to your room.

*Story*
As Rue is sleeping, someone is calling him. He looks outside and sees
Claire and she is walking towards the alley that leads to the Tavern and
Hobbs' Shop. Rue runs out of the room and out of the inn.
*Story*

*Interesting stuff to check out*
If you go to the Grasslands take note that Rod is sleeping.

I found a Silver Coin beside the Hotel [but maybe the items are found at
random]. Follow her so go to the place where Hobbs' Shop and the Tavern is.
You would not see Claire there so go back to the main part of town. You will
see Claire go to the docks, follow her. At the docks you would not see
Claire anywhere, talk to Duke, he is somewhere below.

*Story*
Rue asks Duke if he saw a girl in a purple cloak that is about his height.
Duke says that he did not see anyone like that.
*Story*

Leave the docks.

*Story*
Rue will wonder what is going on.
*Story*

Go to the Grasslands and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Again, Rue will ask if Rod saw a girl in a purple cloak and that is about
his height. Duke will say that he did not see anyone because he was busy
calming the Johnny Wolf because it seems like Johnny Wolf seen a ghost or
something. Rue will wonder about the word 'ghost' but he believes that it
couldn't be.
*Story*

Leave the Grasslands. You will see Claire enter the church, as usual
follow her.

*Story*
Rue sees Claire walking towards Psycho Master. Psycho Master lifts Claire
using his psychic power or something so Rue demands from Psycho Master to
bring Claire down but Psycho Master challenges Rue to fight.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Psycho Master*
Challenge: Easy

Careful not to attack him at his front or side meaning attack him ONLY at
his back. Just whack his back till he withdraws. When he is hovering and
following you, just run around the place or around him and make sure that he
doesn't come into contact with you.

*Story*
After the battle, Psycho Master will teleport Claire and tells Rue that if
he wants to rescue Claire, he needs to go the Lake.

It will automatically be morning and what you do here is you leave town and
go to the Tower of Maya (which was formerly the Lakeside).

If you talk to Graham, he will tell something good.

"Damn, you're way too eager. You might end up dead if you don't take a
deep breath and calm down. Remember, the secret to longetivity is
composure." - Graham

Go to the Tower of Maya.

Just go enter the top door.

*Story*
Inside, Trap Master will be there and tell Rue that Rue is on his trap.
Trap Master will also say that Rue has nowhere to go but up.
*Story*

In the round room, just run up and...

*Story*
Trap will tell Rue that he left a surprise at the door and that Rue should
not try to escape because he is trapped.
*Story*

Now, if you talk to the door, you will receive damage. Now run up, fight
the enemies you encounter such as Wabbits, Witches and Pumpkins. All are
easy to kill but you need to use Witch - Pumpkin Cannon to get rid of the
witches that are on a platform, annoying you because you can't get them using
physical attacks.

You have to jump across the moving stuff. You can only step on the ones

and you have to kill all the pumpkins in order to get out. Kill the witch on
the floating platform (p) and go get the 2 Star Stones and step on the
Restore HP and leave the place using the top exit.

In the next place, you have to hop on the big round thing in the middle and
enemies (Pumpkins) will fall down and you just have to defeat them all until
you get to the top. At the top, from the round thing, go up the stairs and
get out of the room.

First go step on (1) but if you fall you can step on the middle (x) to get

then (2) then (3), you can wait for (3) to stop unlike (1 and 2) because at
the end of (3)s ride it will not throw you but it would wait for a few
seconds. Go get the Legendary Helmet (L) and step on the Restore HP spot.
Go exit the place.

Just enter the door and

In the next room, Claire is there.

*Story*
Claire will then turn into Mode Master. She will tell Rue that she envies
Claire because Rue is willing to sacrifice for Claire. Rue gets mad and
charges to attack Mode Master but Mode Master will change into Claire so Rue
stops. Mode Master will leave and Doll Master will arrive. Doll Master is
going to reveal that he is the one with the large claw and he killed Claire.
Rue gets furious and challenges Doll Master.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - 'He'*
Challenge: Impossible - N/A

Just die in battle, I believe you can't win. Also if you checked out the
Message Board of GameFAQs, there is an article there that says that he
replayed the game with stronger characters and he fought for a long time
against Doll Master but it seemed that Doll Master has infinite HP.

*Story*
After the battle, Doll Master will again seal Rue's power and Maya will
arrive then Doll Master will tell her that they don't need her anymore so
Psycho Master takes the book and lifts it up to the air. Doll Master will
command Rue to tear apart the Book of Cosmos. Rue will follow and he, using
his somewhat like a psychic power, tear the book apart.

********************
* 'Book of Cosmos' ***
**********************
* Boss: Atenacius *
**********************

Rue will wakeup somewhere and he is together with Princess Maya. Princess
Maya will heal Rue's injuries and tells him that they are inside the Book of
Cosmos and the Book of Cosmos is a 'Gateway to the Cosmos'. She will also
tell Rue that Rue has tremendous power because he was able to destroy the
book and that Doll Master can't do that. Princess Maya will ask Rue to go
see Atenacius, an Aeon that sealed his spirit inside the Book of Cosmos.
Princess Maya tells Rue that maybe Atenacius knows something about Rue.

Atenacius will come and he looks like a face that is merged with a book.
Atenacius will ask Princess Maya about how did the book get destroyed but
Princess Maya will tell him that it might have something to do with the stone
that is on Rue's forehead. Atenacius will get furious and says that he knows
Rue, and he is Valen's servant. Atenacius says that he gets disgusted seeing
Rue and on the stone. Atenacous will tell Rue that he (Rue) is evil and he
is going to resurrect Valen and get the Dewprism. Atenacius will say that he
must kill you so that Valen won't get resurrected because the Dewprism can
bring about disaster.

*Boss Battle - Atenacius*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

In this battle, attack the old man's beard. He will counter attack or
attack you using his beard too but if you are about my level, meaning you
bought the Mythril stuff, it doesn't matter. There are also 'Electric Beard
Slice' [I made that up {^_^}] attack which also gives pitiful damage. He
will move from one large platform to another so you have to jump using the
small platforms (note that sometimes, HP or MP up items appear there). He
also has something homing attack which you can't avoid.

*Story*
After the battle, Rue wonders what is going on. A few moments later,
Atenacius come back and say that it is his world and he just can't die. He
tells Rue how dare he tries to fight his sovereign power. Doll Master
arrives and laughs at Atenacius because of bragging about his power, he then
attack Atenacius and absorbs his power. So now, Maya's Book of Cosmos has no
power. Doll Master tells Rue and Maya a story.

Doll Master says that Rue and himself's fate was pre-determined when they
were born. It was because when the Aeons still existed, one Aeon has the
power to rival the gods, he made a [Relic] that embodies all the forces of
the universe. It is the purest form of crystal, it has life, space, time,
logic and will. It can control time and nature's creations, the ultimate
power of the universe, the Dewprism. It defines heaven, earth, time and
life, simply a microcosm of the universe, meaning having it is having the
universe. Valen wanted to be a god so other Aeons where afraid of him and
killed him. Valen's body died but his spirit, together with the Dewprism was
transported to another dimension. Later, Aeons died except for one that
sealed his spirit inside a book, which is Atenacius. So now, Doll Master
says that now the enemies are defeated, Rue and himself can now do their
purpose, to resurrect Valen. Valen cannot escape or can be set free from his
dimension.

After telling that, Atenacius arrives and say that Valen's dolls can
resurrect Valen. Doll Master attacks him again and he tells Rue that Rue
needs to serve his purpose.

Continuing the story, Doll Master was the one that woke Rue up because
they are brothers. Rue had a gem on his forehead, a fragment of the
Dewprism, a life stone. Both Rue and Doll Master are to do resurrect Valen.
Rue tells Doll Master that Doll Master is lying but Doll Master replies by
saying that he is not, Rue just lost his memory. Rue woke up only five years
ago but he was awake for a hundred years so he retained all his memory and
knows everything that he has to do. The sad part is that he was a defect,
his life stone is dead so he has no power. He can't fulfill his duty so he
needs Rue. He called Rue three years ago but Rue gets mad and asks why Doll
Master killed Claire. Doll Master replies by saying that he had no intention
of killing Claire and it was just an accident. Rue says that he hates Doll
Master and that he is not help. Doll Master tells Rue that it doesn't matter
because with Atenacius power, he can de-petrify Prima Doll and let Prima Doll
break the seal.

After that, both Rue and Princess Maya awaken at the Tower. Rue says to
her that he needs to go to the Ruins but Princess Maya tells him that she
can't help because the Book of Cosmos is gone.

*Cut Scene*
Something will be floating above the skies and forms a Fortress.

Doll Master will be talking to the other 'Masters', his subordinates. He
will tell them that he and Psycho Master will go up to Valen's Fortress. He
asks Mode Master, he will call her Kirielle, together with Trap Master to
stay and prevent anyone from going up Valen's Fortress. Kirielle will say
that she was proud to be with Doll Master. Doll Master tells Trap Master,
but he calls him Narcius, not to die for no purpose. He will call Psycho
Master, Karwyn and tells him that it is time to go. Doll Master will be
called Ruecian and they will say farewell to each other.
*Cut Scene*

Rue tells himself that he knows that his feelings may not be real but he
knows his promise is, which is to revive Claire. He will go get Dewprism,
revive Claire and kill Doll Master.
*Story* [That was the most detailed (although no descriptive elements for
the setting) story I created for this walkthrough]

If you fight Rod, he has a new weapon called the 'Dark Hurricane'.

Go to the tavern and you may like to give the Legendary Stuff to Jargen,
the bartender. He will offer you the following as dishes.
_________________________________________________________________

You can only cook 10 times and the Legendary equipment will be overused but
if that happens he will give you a Platinum Coin. I suggest that you should

Raging Mountains.

If you forgot the Raging Mountains, just consult the Raging Mountains
section of the Rue's walkthrough.

Get a Bubba coin and avoid fighting the other monsters if the Witch coin is
still present in your Coin Inventory. Just go to the area with steam coming
out of the ground, you will meet Trap Master there.

*Story*
Trap Master tells Rue that he cannot go on any further and he is going to
finish Rue now.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Trap Master*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Just stay at the center and hopefully you have the Witch coin or the Bubba
coin. Transform into any of the 2, preferably the Witch and use Pumpkin Shot
if not use Bubba - Hammer. If you don't have any of the two, it would be a
hard battle. Avoid stepping on the blinking platforms because they will
explode and deal you damage. Also, when a shadow is on top of you, move to
another platform because a spiked ball will fall on top of you (but it really
isn't necessary if you have Witch or Bubba).

*Story*
Trap Master attempts to blow himself up but he got no power left and he
promised Doll Master that he would not die in vane. He tells Rue that Mode
Master is up ahead. Rue advances to the next room and Trap Master apologizes
to Doll Master for being a failure.
*Story*

On the next area, step on the HP Restore if you received damage. Advance
to the next area and there will be another extra boss battle area.

*Story*
Rue will see Mode Master in a Claire's form. Rue gets mad and asks Mode
Master to change her form because it doesn't affect him anymore. But she
tells Rue to go to Doll Master and follow Doll Master because he is Rue's
brother. Rue says no and that he will never forgive Doll Master because he
killed Claire. After that Mode Master transforms into Rue and tells Rue to
see who is better.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Mode Master*
Challenge: Medium

She is in a Rue form and she has the same attacks as you. Just jump
attack her. When she sustained a lot of damage, she will begin transforming
herself into different monsters, even monsters that Rue can't transform into
(like the Behemoth). Again just use jump attacks.

*Story*
After the battle, Mode Master, in Rue's form, asks Rue to finish her. Rue
charges her but Mode Master will transform into Claire's form. Rue stops and
Mode Master asks why he stopped because she thought that, as Rue said
earlier, it doesn't affect Rue anymore. She runs and tells Rue that you
cannot defeat Psycho Master and if you did defeat him, you cannot defeat Doll
Master. She tells Rue that Rue couldn't stop them.
*Story*

Go to the area with the blowing wind, if you are very low on HP (below
1/4), just attack the enemies there and get the stuff that they drop. Finish
the area and you will be at the Cliff area. There will be a Restore HP there
and go to the peak.

At the peak ...

*Story*
Rue sees Wylaf and asks him for help. Wylaf read Rue's mind and tells Rue
that he needed his help in order to go to the Fortress. Wylaf gives it to
Rue and Rue will be surprised that Wylaf gave it easily. Wylaf asks Rue why
he looks troubled and Rue tells him that it is because Doll Master told him
that his purpose was to resurrect Valen and not really to revive Claire. Rue
says that Doll Master can control him. Wylaf stops Rue from underestimating
his self and tells Rue that he (Wylaf) believes in Rue. He believes that
Rue's strength comes from will and not from duty and he can overcome it, Rue
has the capacity to choose his will, to revive Claire, over his duty, to
resurrect Valen. Rue thanks Wylaf for the words.

Go to the Tavern.

*Story*
Belle and Duke is there and tells Rue that they are amazed that Rue was
able to get the Dragon Wings from Wylaf. Rue tells them that he was able to
do it because of Klaus, Belle and Duke and everyone's help. Belle tells him
that why Rue is always so humble, very much unlike the immature one that is
with her. Duke assumes and tells that Belle is talking about Mint but Belle
says that it was Duke. Duke says that he might be immature but he is
preparing a new act because Rue is his lifelong rival and that if he acts
like Rue, he can beat Rue. Belle asks Rue if he is going to go and Rue will
say that he will go for Claire. Belle and Duke will say that Rue is so
selfless, willing to risk his life. After that, in a serious manner, Belle
will wish Rue good luck and Duke bids him with happy hunting. Rue will thank
them and that he hopes to see them again.
*Story*

If you have not yet destroyed the Legendary stuff yet, go beat up Pollywogs
and Gudons [I suggest that you get Gudons because that is what I did]
(remember to get only enough since the Legendary stuff will break after 10
meals) [Don't waste time beating Fire Blobs and Fungies because +10 HP or +10
MP is not worth it] after destroying it, the bartender will give you a
Platinum Coin.

After that, if you think you have missed something, go check out the
section Side Stuff. If you have done all of them go to the inn and register.

- "If you go see Mel after getting your wings from Wylaf (Rue's Story),
there'll be another story line about Rue and his doubts. She'll ask ya
questions that u can answer any which way. Good to prolong the story."

- "With Rue, after getting your wings from Wylaf (or just some time before
you go to Valen's) stop by the Hotel. Marco should be standing in front of
the hotel. If u talk to him, he'll say something about hearing an
arguement and about to girls with red hair. Go up to the rooms and you'll see
Maya and Mint. It's a funny lil story line. Ahh, sibling rivalry!"

Now examine the town's gate and go to Valen's Fortress.

Mint will arrive at room (1) and will wonder why the 2 center I don't know
what they are called or [IDKWTAC] are lighted.
*Story*

Room 2, 4, 6 & 8 is like a curved room that has enemies (Jinns and
Hellhounds). They can be used if you want to refill your MP or get their
coins to gain the wind (Jinn - Tornado), fire and water (Hellhound - Ice Blow
and Flame) elemental abilities.

__________________________________________________Objective Sheet____________
Here is what you should do:

Your objective is to light the two [IDKWTAC] on the center.

Light these two and keep the ones beside them unlighted.

A rock will fall and you have to take them to room 1. Note that you cannot
attack / fight, even magic when you are carrying a rock.

To clarify further, you have to do the following steps (steps [a] then [b]
and so on) but you can do the rooms in any order. [Thanks to chojin66 for
this one]

__________________________________________________Objective Sheet____________

Room 1: a. Use Hellhound - Ice Blow to extinguish the two lighted [IDKWTAC]

After placing the rocks at room one, you automatically advance to the next
room.

*Story*
Rue will see Psycho Master and Psycho Master will say that he cannot allow
Rue to go on further and disturb what the Doll Master is doing. It is
because that the Doll Master is taking the Cursed Crossways wherein you will
face the fears of your past. He also cannot allow Rue to go back and Rue has
to end the battle there. Also, he will say that his destiny is to serve his
master, which is Doll Master and he will release his full power before
fighting Rue because Rue is the brother of his master.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Psycho Master*
Challenge: Medium

Do not touch the invisible barrier because it will deal you damage. Note
again that you can only attack him at his back. When he floats and chases
you, run around the room (but avoid the invisible barrier) and around him.
When he casts the blue floating things, just get hit by them, it is only
cheap damage anyway. Also he casts a circular attack that moves in all
directions, just jump to evade that attack.

*Story*
After the battle, Psycho Master charges Rue but Rue will attack him.
Psycho Master dies and Rue wonders why Psycho Master did it on purpose. Rue
proceeds to the Cursed Crossways.

Here you have to go through all the teleporters, beating the enemies at the
place you will go to. I also believe that there is some kind of order here
but sadly, I can't remember. Well anyway, the enemies here are pitiful so
you can easily defeat them. Also if you are low on HP in the degree of:
Ultra low - Fight at 1 or 3
Low - Fight at 3 or 7
Medium - Fight at 6 or 7
to regain health (by beating up enemies and getting the potions (the red or
blue stuff that they leave behind).

After beating all the rooms, the center will have a save point and (A) will
become a teleporter which has a Restore HP, save and hop onto it.

*Story*
At the next room, Doll Master tells Rue that he was amazed at his brother
for getting that far. Rue still rejects him so he doesn't want to be called
Doll Master's brother. Doll Master tries to convince Rue about accepting his
true purpose of resurrecting Valen and that Rue can't deny it forever because
he can never escape. It was fate that reunited them. Rue tells Doll Master
that he doesn't care about Valen and he only cares about reviving Claire.
Rue could have accepted Doll Master if he just did not kill Claire. Again,
Doll Master says that it was just an accident and that if they got the
Dewprism, they can just revive Claire. Rue gets mad and says to Doll Master
that he just toyed with Claire's life. Even if Doll Master bring Claire
back, he still won't forgive Doll Master. He will tell Doll Master that he
did not come for duty, and that his mind is set and there is no turning back,
he is going to get rid of Doll Master and bring Claire back. Doll Master
says that if that is what Rue thinks, then they have to settle the fight. He
also tells Rue not to worry because he is not going to use the seal spell.
He removes the Doll Master outfit and know he is the guy with the large claw.
He tells Rue that he will kill Rue the same way he killed Claire.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Doll Master *
Challenge: Medium - Hard - Impossible (Doll Master can cheat)

He has a lot of attacks such as the 'Claw Swipe' and for that, you just
have to jump back. He has a 'White Magic Loop' which would lift you up and
you will take damage and throws you aside, immediately jump because he will
use another 'Claw Swipe'. He has a 'Black Projectile' attack which you can
avoid by running far away from its casting point (let it chase you to the
other side of the screen) but it does pitiful damage so it doesn't matter.
Also, he has the 'Charge Grab' and you know if its coming because he will
stand and his body would emit stars, when you see that, run to the direction
where Doll Master is facing (meaning if he is facing right, run right, if he
is facing left, run to the left), if you get caught, you will suffer MAJOR
damage. After that attack, if you did not get hit, you can use a 3-hit combo
against him. Sometimes, you can jump kick him but it is not very advisable
because Doll Master, just like Rod, can block attacks. The cheat, sometimes,
Doll Master cheats by using the 'White Magic Loop Infinity' [Wow, what a
lousy name, I just made that up]. He uses it continually and you will just
die from it [happened to me once].

*Story*
After that, Doll Master desperately wants to get up but Rue says to him
that the battle is over. Doll Master says to himself that he still needs to
fulfill his duty and fight Rue. Rue will tell him that as long as Doll
Master is tied to the duty, Doll Master can't beat him. Rue will tell Doll
Master that he is unlike him because he fights not for duty. Doll Master
then asks what Rue is doing. Rue answers him by telling that saving Claire
is not a duty because nobody told him to do it, it was his will. Rue tells
Doll Master that he doesn't care about him being created by Valen and that he
just would not follow orders. Doll Master then mumbles to himself about him,
sacrificing everything for Valen, everything in terms of will. He will say
that he was a fool and that if only wasn't a defect, he could have never
killed Claire and that could kept Rue's will dormant. He will die, Rue will
remorse a little, and then he proceeds to the next room.

At the next room, Valen tells Rue about Rue's loyalty. Rue asks Valen if
Valen was trapped in another dimension, how come Valen is there. Valen
answers Rue by telling him that when the Fortress was summoned his spirit was
revived but still he doesn't have a physical body. Rue will ask Valen on how
can he revive Claire and Valen tells him that he can revive Claire by using
the life stone on his forehead. Since the life stone is a fragment of the
Dewprism, it has the power to control it. Rue then revives Claire but when
Claire's body appears, it is not moving. Then Valen enters Claire's body, he
(or she [^_^]) will tell Rue that resurrecting Valen was not their only
purpose, and that they should also provide a body. So now, Rue provided
Valen with a body. Rue gets furious and demands that Valen leave Claire's
body. Valen gets mad and tells Rue about his disrespectful attitude towards
his creator. He will call Rue his slave but Rue will say that he is not a
slave because he has will and then he again demands that Valen leave the body
right now or else he is going to kill Valen. Valen then tells Rue that
broken dolls are to be purified and that can be done by shattering them,
Valen will destroy Rue's body and will. Rue cry out that Valen can never
destroy his will.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Valen*
Challenge: Medium

In this battle, Valen, in Claire's body will be floating and moving
around. You can damage him (or her) if he is near you and you try to jump
attack him (or her). Also, Valen summons a big creature. This big creature
has three attacks. First it can spin around and damage that comes along its
path. Try jumping when it is near and going to slice you. Another one is
when he is jumping, the ground shakes and when you are on the ground, you
will receive damage. Jump when the big guy is about to fall on the ground to
avoid taking damage. Also, he can restore Valen's HP. He does this when he
is like doing a stupid pose. Just run towards it and attack it. It is a
good time to attack Valen if you kill this guy first (although he will summon
this guy again). You can also get restore HP or MP stuff from the big guy if
you run out of HP (I don't think you will run out of HP).


*Story*
Valen is rejected by the body so he is on a spirit form again. He tells
Rue that he couldn't possess a human's body and only can possess a doll's.
Valen then casts the bind spell on Rue and as Valen prepares to enter Rue's
body, Doll Master arrives and unseals Rue. Now, Valen knows that the two
dolls that he created is fighting against him. Doll Master will tell Rue
that Rue's will can conquer anything but Valen shoots a spirit blast on Doll
Master. But after doing that, Valen's spirit is breaking down and he begins
to fade. Valen then tells Rue and Doll Master that he will become the light
and say that he will pass through the Dewprism and Valen disappeared. Rue
goes to Doll Master and finally accepts him as a brother. Doll Master,
nearly dying, thanks Rue because that is the best thing that he heard in a
hundred years time. But suddenly, Valen arrives, as the light.

*Boss Battle - Valen*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Note that in this battle, Rue's attack 2 is already a defensive posture.
Rue's defensive posture would prevent him from falling after an attack and I
believe that he takes up less damage. Here, the only time you can damage him
when he is a bit red and that is after storming you with a rapid fire of
White star-like stuff attack. But before that, if you are low on HP, just
grab the blue potions that randomly appear at the battlefield. And, when he
is flying, he will attempt to grab you so just run away from it and just run
to some direction when it is going to blast you with the 2 barreled rainbow
colored rapid star-like stuff attack. When you are seeing an overhead view,
it is preparing for the 'suck' maneuver. Here, just run down and move left
or right so you can avoid the shots and avoid getting sucked in.

Now, when he is hovering, he will storm you with a rapid fire of white
stuff attack. When that happens, use Attack 2 so that you would receive small
damage and you won't fall back. After the storm, he will be blinking red and
use a jump attack on him. It will take 4 jump attacks to defeat the guy.

Congratulations, you have finished Rue's story. If you like to know, it
took me 11:38 hours to finish Rue's game and that I did Rue's second (I
played with Mint first). It took me a long time because I wrote maps for the
Ghost Temple and wrote on paper the story.

If you have finished Rue's story only:
- After the credits, you will see something like End of Rue's story. You
will be asked if you want to save the game which is Mint 0:00. Save your
game and you will see Rue's picture has a color now. After that, you will be
asked if you want to: - Play the Mint Episode
- Return to the Title Screen
- Return to the Save Screen
do anything you want.

But if you have finished Rue's and Mint's story, proceed to the section, So
you've finished the game.

++ -Prologue- ++
++++++++++++++++

*Story*
Mint's story begins as she runs in a hall and opens the door and enters
the dining room. Gramps will tell her that it is not yet time to eat and
that she should go back to her room, but she said that she was very hungry so
she tasted one of the foods.
*Story*

************************************************
* 'East Heaven Kingdom - Castle - Dining Room' *
************************************************

Now that you can control Mint, press the confirm button on all the foods
until you have tasted them all then press the confirm button on the chair or
throne {whichever you want to call it}.

*Story*
After tasting, she then sits on the King's chair or throne, then Gramps
will tell her not to sit there but Mint says that since she will be queen
anyway, it is ok, but her younger sister arrives, namely Maya. The Doll
Master accompanies Maya {the weird looking guy}. Maya and tells Mint that
she is not worthy to be the successor of the throne and it is already decided
by the High Council where in the King also approved that the successor
wouldn't be Mint even if she was the eldest in the family. Mint asks why
that decision was made but Maya said many reasons such as she is childish,
selfish, lazy and the list goes on. Mint gets angry, shows Maya the 'finger'
and charges her magic to attack her sister with but Maya was holding the
'Book of Cosmos' the greatest Aeon [Relic] which is a powerful magic caster
so Mint doesn't have a chance against her. Mint asks if Maya was just joking
but Maya was serious and attacks her using a pumpkin [Mint hates pumpkins].
The pumpkin chases Mint out of the room.

* 'Ship' *

{You will see Rue, just passing by the ship's deck}

*Story*
It was already been two years but still there are many things going on in
Mint's mind. About her getting the [Relic] and beat Maya up, succeed in the
throne and dominate the world. She also thinks about making Maya her slave,
let Maya clean the toilet and stuff.

There are also two hoodlums, Smokey {small fat guy} and Blood {tall guy}.
They thought about stealing your money but they didn't do it. Then the ship
bumps a red thing, you will fall down the ship and get rescued by Davis, the
one who manages the docks.
*Story*

******************
*'Carona - Docks'*
******************

Now, you go and climb the land elevation

*Story*
The two hoodlums will push you and you will fall down. Mint gets angry
and wanted to beat up those two and Mint heard that they are going to the
forest {Carona Forest} so Mint decided to go there too.
*Story*

Now go back up and you will be in town.

First things first so what you should do, if you like is to save. To save,
go to the 'Inn' see #5 on Map. Enter the 'Inn' go to the counter and press
confirm button at the log book (that is what it looks like for me), select
register. (See Saving in 'You need to know these stuff' section. You can
choose to go to the church. Talk to Doyle (the person in there), say that
you like to pray, then he will ask you if you like to make a donation but
since you only have 100 G so don't bother. There is nothing to do at the
Hotel. Elena's House is locked. The store doesn't sell anything yet but the
storekeeper will tell you about the antique shop. He will say that the
antique shop is in another side of town and the shop's keeper Klaus is out
together with his wife Mira to research about the [Relic] in the forest. He
also will say that the antique shop is being run by Klaus' daughter, Elena
[because Klaus is not there] but she isn't there because she has gone to the
forest to go looking for her parents. You can talk to the people there and
they will say some interesting things so try talking to them (specially to
Marco). After that, proceed to B (see Map).

Here, first check the barrel, it contains a Silver Coin. Go to the tavern
if you like and talk to Annette (the waitress) many times and she will treat
you to drink either 'Milk' or 'Root beer'. Milk restores 10% of your MP and
the Root beer restores your MP 25% (so choose the 'Root beer'). There is
also a sign beside the Tavern's door (leads you to the outside of the
Tavern). There will be a fight at Grass Fields, the fighting fee is 100 G
and the winners prize is 1000 G. Leave the tavern. Hobbs' Shop is locked so
leave the place and go next to C (see Map).

Here just examine the wall to get another silver coin. Leave the place.

Maybe you would like to check out the docks because sometimes it contains
random coins that can be found.

Now you are back to the main town of Carona, if you like why not 'Save'
again. Leave the place (D) and now you will head to Carona Forest.

Walk, then jump the three stumps, then your first battle. You will be
fighting against the Pollywog, (see Fighting, and Increasing Parameters in
'You need to know these stuff' section) they are EASY, just whack them. The
game will say that when you attack an enemy, your will gain MP. Also the
enemies drop potions. The Blue Potion restores some of your HP and the Red
Potion restores some of your MP. The restoration of your HP when picking up
the blue potions or restoration of your MP by picking up red potions or
attacking enemies physically depends on how strong the enemy is [If the enemy
is pitiful, you will gain 1 or when it is strong, you will gain 2 or more].
The enemies keep coming back so after beating enough (two of them I think)
advance to the place where you need to use magic to defeat the enemies (see
Magic, 'You need to know these stuff' section). One hit will kill them, now
cross the water (shallow water), take the 3x Bronze Coins in the treasure box
(or whirling pink thingie) [would you mind if I call it box or chest or
something and not whirling pink thingie]. Onto the next section

Just walk, fight, walk, jump, walk, fight, jump or something. Just reach
the exit. Nothing special here except two new enemies, the Saber Tiger and
the Mandola. The Saber Tiger is fast and deals 3-8 damage to you. You can
kill it in about 3 hits. The Mandola attacks in long range, and can be
killed within 3 hits. Before you leave the area, make your you have at least
30 HP and 50 MP, you'll need it, trust me.

*Story*
Here you will see the antique shop's daughter, Elena, together with Blood
and Smokey. They are going to steal money from her. Mint thinks of this
situation as she becoming a hero and settling the score with those two for
knocking her down at the docks so she decided to beat the two up. First,
Mint kicks Blood on the face, then again. Then Mint calls them dumb so Blood
gets mad and attacks you.
*Story*

Here is your first *BOSS* battle against Blood and Smokey.

*Boss Battle- Smokey & Blood*
Challenge: Easy

What you do here is run until only one is at your back [try to trap one
using obstacles]. When he is alone, Set Magic to White - Vulcan. Blast him
until about 18 - 25 hits and the fight is over.

*Story*
Elena thanks Mint and Mint says that it is alright. Mint asks her what
is she doing in the forest and Elena says that she is looking for her
parents. Mint asks what her parents and Elena replies by saying that her
parents are researching about the [Relic]. Elena asks Mint to accompany her
in finding her parents, Mint agrees because she knew that this is an
opportunity to find out more about the [Relic].

Here, you will talk to Elena's parents, Klaus and his wife, Mira. You will
meet Rue here for the first time.

*Story*
Klaus, Elena's father already know what Mint is about to ask because
someone has asked him earlier, it was Rue (Mint thought that Rue was some
kind of weirdo ^_^). He will tell you about the [Relics]. Since he has
spent his life searching for ruins, he found out certain things. Klaus says
that 100 years ago there was a magician that was also searching for the
[Relics]. The magician lived in an Atelier (a magician's workshop) which
has a key to somewhere that could probably lead to the [Relic] but the
problem is that it is below the steep cliff and Rue and Klaus tried going
down but they both broke their ankles. What Mint is supposed to do is to go
down the cliff and get hold of the investigations and findings that the
magician knows. Without much hesitation, Mint crazily jumped down the cliff.

you do is lure them both into a good position where you can attack them both

delay before one will again come back to life) [I haven't tried using White -

*Interesting stuff to check out*
Try running around the perimeter of the place and looking at your shadow.
The shadow depends on the lighting of the place. Pretty cool huh!

Enter the Atelier but ... *BOSS* battle, Nightmare.

*Boss Battle - Nightmare*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Just try running around, while evading the attacks and when Nightmare
closes, jump away. After getting used to his pattern, beat it up to the
finish by using White - Spread. When you are low on MP, try attacking and
evading attacks.

After finishing the battle, proceed inside Cadmon's Atelier.

*Story*
Mint tries to attack the vault and kick it but it wouldn't open. Klaus
enters the Atelier and examines the vault. He opens it using a the switch on
the vault. The vault will open and reveals a diary and a key. Klaus tries
to read the diary and it tells about the [Relic] which was created by the
Aeons. Aeons are the powerful magicians that can change the stars orbit or
move landscapes but mysteriously all of them perished. Now you should be
heading back to town.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' ******************
*************************************

*************************************

*Story*
Mira, Klaus wife is talking to Ms. Cartha, the innkeeper. She asks Ms.
Cartha to let Mint stay at the inn for free so now you can recover HP at the
inn. Mira tells Mint to proceed to their house (Klaus house).
*Story*

I suggest that you go to the inn first to save. Go inside the inn, talk to
Ms. Cartha and she will ask you to Recover / Recover & Register / Go to your
room. Choose Recover & Register then save your game [sadly, the inn only
restores your HP]. After that, if you like, check out your room. Nothing
really important, just talk to the bed and sleep [it doesn't replenish your
MP either :(].

Leave the place and go check out Hobbs' place. Even though you can't buy
anything here yet, just make a trip their to find out more stuff about the
game. In Hobbs' place, you can choose to [upgrade] your base strength, base
defense, maximum HP and maximum MP. Your base strength will increase by 1
and the same goes for the base defense. Your maximum HP and maximum MP will
increase by 10. It costs 30,000 G for each one (base strength or base
defense or maximum HP or maximum MP). It is ultra-mega-hyper [ok, you
probably understand already] expensive but if you give the Rare Wine to him
later in the game, you can buy one for 5,000 G.

Now you can go to the tavern and replenish your MP (but I suggest not to).
Talk to the bartender and he will offer you Milk for 50 G (restores 10% MP),
Rootbeer 120 G (restores 25% MP) and Tropical Delight 220 G (restores 50%
MP). Leave the tavern.

Now to got to the shop. At the item shop, talk to the shopkeeper, his name
is Tonio. First sell your coins (monster coins not the Bronze or Silver
Coins). Check out what he is selling. At this point, he is selling

Item Shop
Item Description Cost
Bronze Bracer - Bonus Strength +4 - 1,000 G
Silver Bracer - Bonus Strength +8 - 3,000 G
Bronze Belt - Bonus Defense +4 - 1,000 G
Silver Belt - Bonus Defense +8 - 3,000 G

If you have 3,000 G, go buy the Silver Bracer. After that leave the shop.

Now if you have confidence in yourself, try going to the Grasslands. Here
try fighting Rod.

*Story*
Here, Rod introduces himself and his dog Johnny Wolf. He says that he is
a weapon blacksmith and a swordsman. Mint asks if she can see the weapons
but Rod said that he only shows his weapon in battle. Mint asks Rod for
battle but Rod refuses because he turns Mint down. Mint says to Rod that she
will leave so she turns around but she kicked Rod. Rod finds out that you
are good so he decides to fight you for 100 G (you will win 1,000 G if you
beat him). Also, Mint hates being called 'baby' so she tells Rod her name.
Pay the 100 G and do battle.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Rod*
Challenge: Hard

Approach him with caution. Do not go near him when he is spiraling
either the ground or jumping one. Try leading him to the obstacle (in the
middle). He will stop spiraling so now run and attack him using a 3-hit
combo, then evade his attack by jumping back twice. After that attack again
using a 3-hit then evade his attack by jumping back again twice. Then run
around until he does again the spiraling move (either the jumping one or
ground one). Repeat the above steps again till you win.

If you win against him, you will get 1,000 G but if you lose then you
wasted your money. So after that, go back to town and go to Klaus' House.
Go to the basement and talk to Klaus.

*Story*
He will tell you that according to the diary Mint found at the Atelier
below the cliff, an Aeon [Relic] is sealed by a high order of magic, which
even the magicians cannot break. And according to the diary, the magician
will go to the Atelier of the Master Magician Elroy. Now you are instructed
to go to Elroy's Atelier and get more info about the [Relic]. He also gives
Mint something that he found at the Atelier, the Red class of Magic. (^_^)

until he tells you about a something hidden in the stump in Carona Forest.
So now, head for the Hotel and ask for a room (it costs 500 G).

First get the bed and examine the bed to sleep. You will dream about some
monkey, jumping down the hollow stump. [You might wonder that why did I let
you sleep in the hotel if you could have just slept at the inn. 1) is that
because you can get the Dream Stone here and 2) No you will not get the dream
if you slept at the inn.] After that leave the Hotel and head for Carona

There are two kinds of enemies here, the Stinger and the Mandola. The
Stinger is hard to hit so just measure the time when they are near your
attacking range, hit them. When you reach the whithered plant, blast it with
your Blue Magic - Raindrops. It will take a few hits and the plant will
grow. Now, step on the plant (just jump to get to it) then get on the higher
elevation part (L) and take the (&) The Last Hero. After that leave the
area. You can leave the area by going right until you reach the wall and
jump towards the right.

You will end up at the other open stump of the Carona Forest. Now that you
are here, time to go search for the items that I listed that you should get
later, get them now, the Silver Coin and Bronze Coin (outside the Atelier).

Go to the Grasslands area and talk to Rod. Rod will ask you if he could
have the The Last Hero. Go give it to him, he will tell you that it is abook
about the life of a dragon slayer named Highwind. He will say that he always
wanted to read this and since you gave it to him, he will reward you into
giving his 4 Strength Ups that he bought from Hobbs. Your base strength will
increase by 4 [yeah!, free stats].

If you have the money, go to the shop and buy the Silver Belt, but if you
do not have enough money, go to the forest and beat the hell out of the
enemies there until you gathered enough money to do so.

In town, you can talk to Graham and he will give you tips in playing the
game. After that, proceed to the 'Underground Ruins'.

heard that the enemies here are strong so Mint and him needs to work
together. He then jumps to the teleporter and Mint decided to hurriedly go
to Atelier so that she would get more of the stuff inside, she then follows
him . (why did Rue go ahead of Mint if they are to work together?)

Just exit at (D). The enemies here are Gudon (the red guy) and King Ant (the

on Gudon and any magic on the King Ant (I suggest you use Blue - Droplets on
him too so that you do not need to Set Magic again and again).

*Story*
Mint will wonder how did Rue get there so fast. Rue will say to Mint that
there is something blocking their way. But after that conversation, the
boulder begins to move and will most likely flatten anything on its way.
*Story*

RUN!, NOW!, don't mind Rue getting flattened. I think the debris that are
dropping down the ceiling drops at random (I did it 6 times and I got 2
patterns.) There is a time that both ceilings will fall, jump to avoid it.
Head for the place you started add and let the boulder crash and destroy the
obstacle.

Go steal from the dead (he is not actually dead but unconscious), talk to
Rue's boots (he is still wearing it) to get a Bronze Coin. Go step on the
recovery spot if you want to replenish your HP, then head for the exit (there

jump to avoid it to another place. After that, he / it (whatever) will be

Now that you are back at the triangular room, examine (W) to leave (you

After that you will see...

*Story*
Mint will see her OLD enemy Belle together with Duke. She is assuming
that you are up to no good. She is the one Mint beat up a year ago
somewhere. Mint calls her an OLD hag [:P] and she gets enraged but Duke
tells her that she was only 30, for revealing her age, she whacks Duke (he
became unconscious). After that she will attack Mint.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Belle*
Challenge: Easy

Just beat her like silly. But , if you want a flawless victory, avoid her
when there are things that are circling around her until she throws them to
you (avoid those too!).

*Story*
Mint is sure that it was a victory but it is not, she took the Tiara from
you. [After all that hard work [sniff] you [sniff] ... [sniff] ... you stole
it [sniff] ... from ... [sniff] me. [;_;]]. Mint gets mad and she demands it
back but Duke and Belle run away. Then Mint goes after them.
*Story*

Back to the past room, it would seem like another boss battle with Skull
Beast but now, it is invincible and it is stronger. Try whacking it once and
get the hell out. Go to the left and step on the platform with the star
icon.

Now, run like hell to the top by taking the inner belt (the one closer to
the center) and try avoiding the spiked iron balls by passing when you can
get a good clearing (it is quite alright to take a hit or two).

*Story*
It is a dead end, and the Skull Beast is close, Rue will kill the Skull
Beast and save the day [and your butt from being booted]. You will end up in
town.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' House.

*Story*
In the basement, he will tell you that he now knows where the relic was
and it is inside the Lake Ruins. Also he will tell you that the Cube is
somewhat like a key needed to enter the ruins in the lake. Mint immediately
says that since they have the key and know where the relic is, why don't they
go now. But sadly, Klaus says that he doesn't know how to use it so you
cannot open the ruins. He will then tell you that he knows someone that may
know how to use the Cube so maybe you should ask Mel a magician and is living
at her Atelier, but he doesn't want to go there so it is up to you to go
there because of some reason.

will be in a ULTRA-WEIRD place [what an UGLY place]. Go step on (s) the
Star.

\_______/

Go knock at the door (where else are you supposed to knock, the roof?
HELLOOOOOO!) of Mel's Atelier.

*Story*
Mint will notice that the place was very unusual. She also now knew why
Klaus did not want to go to this place. She knocks at the door and she
notices a stupid sound after that, a dwarf-like creature appears and tells
you that Mel is not home and you should play the games while waiting.
*Story*

[Ok, I don't want to play, can I just stand outside and wait for an hour or
something. [No you can't, you have to play the DAMN game] ;_;].

Go save first because you *may* reset and bash your CD because of this
ultra-annoying mini-games [especially the Big Swings and Giant Balls].

Go play the easiest first, Blow Trumpet. Talk to the Poppul Purrels
outside until you find the one that asks you to play Blow Trumpet.

[Sorry no maps for the mini-games. I was so annoyed that I can't do it.]

The games here are timed, and if you hurry, you can get more time at the
bonus game. In the bonus game, if you reached or gone above the high score
which is 500 points, you can get a Silver Coin, but if not, you can get a
Bronze Coin.

Here, wait for the waves or hurry up to avoid it. The enemy here called
the cockadoo is annoying. Go blast it with anything you have, just kill the
damn thing. On the seesaw, it may seem like impossible to reach, but it is
possible. Another seesaw is like something I do not know what to call it
[anybody knows?], first jump at the left side of it, then at the right side,
then again at the left side, and again at the right side and do the following
until you are confident enough to jump to the other side. A little walk
after that and you will be at the bonus game. In the bonus game, you have to
step on the trumpets to keep the cockadoo away. If you blast many cockadoos
at a time, you can get more points. If the cockadoo lands on your head you
lose.

After this, go save and go to the Big Swings.

Here, be careful in jumping because the enemies here, called the Imp has an
attack that throws stars at you, try to be patient enough so that you don't
get hit by it. Also, careful in the swings too. It is very easy to slip by
a few centimeters and you will fall. At the bonus game, you have to get the
balls to earn points. Do not get the black balls. If you get balls of the
same color in consecutive order, you can get bonus points.

After that, save and now is the time that you go to the hardest one (for
me), the Giant Balls.

Careful in jumping again because of the Imps. In jumping from a Giant
Ball, make sure you don't jump late because you will fall off. There are
also cubes near the end where you can step on. It will fall so jump to the
next place as soon as possible. The bonus game here requires you to beat up
the fungies. Strategy, avoid fungi build up, go all out, whack 'em all.

After this, the cockadoo save point will be gone. If you try to knock
again at the door.

*Story*
Mel arrives and Mint will notice that she looks like a frea ... looks
different, but Mel knows that Mint was trying to say that she was a freak.
Mint will be invited into the house and Mint will ask her about the Cube.
Mel will discourage Mint into getting the [relic] because it is very
dangerous and Mint is a low class magician. She says that many people tried
to get the [relic] but they died. She tells Mint that she is not just
searching for an ordinary [relic] but she is searching for Valen's [Relic],
Valen is the most powerful Aeon. But since Mint is very determined, Mel will
help you if you find the missing Poppul Purrel. There was supposed to be 4
of them but she asked one to go shop in town but it did not come home ever
since. If you help her, she will help you.
*Story*

Now go back to town [what a relief!].

focuses their attention to Mint.
*Story*

Challenge: Easy

Use Rapid Shot to kill any one of them.

*Story*
The hoodlums will run away and the Poppul Purrel will thank Mint. Mint
will say that a beautiful princess named Mint helped him and to tell that to
Mel. Mint wanted to escort the Poppul Purrel but he said that he would be
fine going alone. Now, it would be late so Mint will head back to town.

Before going to your room at the inn and sleeping, go to the Grasslands
area and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Here, Rod will tell Mint something about his past. He will tell Mint the
reason why he is, both swordsman and weapon smith. He then tells Mint about
his father, Pleskin being the greatest swordsman in the world. Rod wanted to
challenge his father for the title but he did not have the chance to do so
because his father died already. So now, he seeks to become, just like his
father, to be written down in history and excel as being the greatest
swordsman and weapon smith.

talk to Ms. Cartha and say 'Go to your room') and sleep (examine your bed).

and in there

*Story*
Mel and the Poppul Purrel that Mint helped will thank her and Mint will
inquire about the cube. Mel said that all you need to know is in the report
so she hands Mint Mel's Report and the Cube.

After handing those to Mint, Mel will tell her interesting stuff. Mel
will say that the East Heaven Kingdom [this is where Mint came from], is a
kingdom which the citizens are excellent magicians. Also, the eldest
princess ran away and rumor was nobody misses her [;_;] and that was because
she was violent, indulged in luxury and a pain in the neck. Mint understood
that Mel was saying those things to her because she knows that Mel is
pointing her out. So Mint tells her story of world conquest to Mel.
*Story*

After that, leave the Atelier and you will meet Rue and Elena outside.

*Story*
Elena wanted to tell Mint some big secret about Rue, but Rue doesn't want
to talk about it so she would not tell Mint. Elena will say that she was
just accompanying Rue to Mel's Atelier and would join you in leaving. Mint
wanted to squeeze the secret from Elena but Elena would see something moving
somewhere, it is Duke, in a star costume. Duke will tell Mint that he came
to take away the cube and Mel's report but Mint will say no so...
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Duke*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

To damage him, you have to kick him until he lies flat or let him tire by
making him jump high or after him spinning. If he is lying flat, use White -
Spread. If he is spinning, just jump out of the way. He has a final move
which he executes when you drained his life to 0, it will take out 20 damage
from you.

Also, you can lose at this battle for something funny (according to grady,
thanks grady!)

*Story*
You will see a cut scene with Doll Master talking to Psycho Master.
Psycho Master will tell Doll Master about there is someone who is searching
for the [Relic] and it is Mint. Doll will say that they must keep it a
secret from Princess Maya. Psycho Master will also say that he prepared

Back in town go to Klaus house and go talk to Klaus.

*Story*
Mint will give Klaus the report and the cube. Klaus says that the Cube
can be opened so they opened it and something came out of it, something which
is not human but a mechanical doll. It was written on the report that Grand
Master Magician Elroy created the doll and the doll's name is Prima Doll and
it is the one that can break the seal to Valen's Relic. But since Prima Doll
is still incomplete, Mint can't break the seal now. Mint needs to get the
parts for Prima Doll which is kept in the Ateliers of the apprentices of
Elroy. A pair of gauntlets, a pair of sollerets are kept in the Ghost Temple
while the Earrings is at the Atelier in Gamul Forest and the final item, the
Amulet can be created from a Phantomite. Rue will say that he will go to the
Ghost Temple and get the 2 pairs of items while Mint will go to the Gamul
Forest to get the earrings. Mint would not agree because she wanted to keep
the [Relic] just for herself but Rue will say that he only need it once and
he will leave it up to Mint and Klaus what to do about it later.
*Story*

Ginema is the magician that stays at Gamul Forest and Klaus will be doing

Rod will say that yes he has the fastest baby in the world but in order

*Story*

*Boss Battle - Rod*
Challenge: it depends

For me, I have not fought him recently so he sucks. I just whacked away
at him and he lost.

Also, according to PyRo MaNiA you can also lose at this battle and he will
demand 100 G from you in order for both of them to fight again. If you lost
again, Mira will arrive.

*Story*
(If you win)
Rod will agree to take you to Gamul Forest but tells Mint that do not ever
call his baby a boat, it is called Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega. Mint calls
his baby Pinto. Rod will get mad at Mint but he will still take you there.

(If you lost twice [according to PyRo MaNiA)
Mira will arrive and asks Rod about why he is giving Mint a hard time.
After some small talk, she will leave and Rod will say something that he
couldn't stand up to Mira about an argument or something.

(After those stuff)
Mira will give Mint and Rod their lunch and now at the boat ride, Rod will
tell something to Mint but Mint does not respond because she was eating hers
and Rod's meatballs and leaves the pumpkin behind.

After they arrive at the Gamul Forest, Mint will ask Rod to wait for her.

it (Green - Wave) on the wind device (w) until it turns fast and a lift will
come down.

way, you will get hit). The only reason they are there is that if you are
low on MP, you can attack them. Also, if you attack a Gamulian Tribe, all
the other tribes will attack you.

Use Green - Wave on the wind device (w) and ride the lift (l)(if you
stepped on it too early, jump again and it will rise up).

"Now blast those two practising Gamulians to kingdom come so more will pop out
of their house. If you go to the point I marked with" {$} "in the above plan
(perhaps a little bit on the right of it...) and use the Fire Heart, all
enemies that pop out of the hut will be automagically roasted, and you do not
have to move to collect the powerups. In fact, if you hit the right spot, you
can glue down the appropriate Magic-button and go for a little coffee or
whatever... Provided you collect enough brown goodies. Thats the crucial
point...

But now another nice effect kicks in: The 'Hyper' option seems to use
up at least 100 MP at first glance. But this is wrong. If you use it
about 20 times, it will eventually drop the limit to 80 MP. This is
what you get for six brown goodies dropped by the Gamulians (~15 MP
each), and while you are protected by the flames those six brown
powerups show up almost everytime. if not, just hit those hobos twice
to refill the missing MP's...

It's no biggie, but it is easy and fast... And it does not require
full attention... ^_^"

Here, use Green - Wave on the wind device (w) then hop onto the platform

You will be back at place 1 so go to the exit (use Green - Wave on the wind

Just run and you will meet Belle

*Story*
When Belle sees Mint, Belle will want to fight Mint. Mint does not want
to fight because there are too many Gamulians. Both of them will then escape
and ride the cart but the rail is destroyed so they will fall.

After falling, Belle was determined to finish the fight but Mint's leg was
hurt during the fall. Belle will then cast magic onto Mint and Mint was
afraid because she thought that it was an attack, but Belle cured Mint's leg.
Belle would say to her that she cured her because she doesn't want to hear
Mint crying. They will both agree to leave the place together but the Cloud
Whale arrives and devours Belle. Mint remembered something about the
earrings that are hidden inside the guardian's body who appears to be the
whale. Mint decided to get the earrings by fighting the whale.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Cloud Whale*
Challenge: Medium

To damage it, you can use White - Vulcan when its mouth opens (the blue-
green part) but in this way, it will take you in its mouth and spit you out
(but it is all right as he only regains some HP). If it creates a tidal wave,
jump to avoid the water rushing from the source, to the raft, and to where you
are standing. You can also attack the red part when it is charging for a water-
spray attack.

*Story*
Mint will get the earrings and Belle will be thrown out from the whale's
mouth but she has fainted so Mint will leave her alone and most likely
proceed to where Rod is waiting.

A cut scene, at the hotel, you will see Belle arrive and she smells. Duke
will say that he was beaten by Rue and likewise Belle was beaten by Mint.
After that, Solin knocks at the door and asks them when they are going to pay
their bill. Since they do not have any money (but they would not say it to
Solin) so they will say that they will pay it later. Now, they will talk to
each other and are now determined to get the [relic] and gain money.

In the grasslands, after arriving to town from the trip, Rod will ask Mint
to thank Mira for the food.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Exit the grasslands.

*Story*
Mint will see a red haired guy and she calls him a spike-haired weirdo.
The man, named Trap Master overhears this and wants to fight you but he can't
so he left a surprise to Mint in Klaus House, and he will leave. Mint
thought that the surprise is that something horrible happened to Klaus or his
family so she rushes to the house and was greeted by Elena. Mint will then
get the surprise because two pumpkins would fall onto her head.
*Story*

*Interesting stuff to check out*
You can push the pumpkins. Move 'em around the house.

Go down the basement.

*Story*
Mint will give the earrings to Prima Doll and you will see Rue give the
gauntlets and sollerets. So now you will have to get the Phantomite. Klaus
will say that the Phantomite is a mineral and somebody named Wylaf who lives
in the Raging Mountain is a collector of rare gems and minerals, because of
this Mint decides that she is the one who wants to go to the Raging
Mountains. Klaus will tell you to be careful because Wylaf is a powerful but
stubborn dragon. History recorded that Wylaf defeated a whole army that
attacked him led by King Dorian. Wylaf was said to have the power to summon
the flames from the ground.

First go straight and fight the enemies if you like (Ootangs and Fire
Blobs) just go and jump the pits (p) and on the next place, just jump across
(you may like to step on (f) but you better hurry or you will fall with it).
At the next place, you will see it is blocked by a boulder (b) that you can't
destroy so just jump down and fight the Bubba there and jump to get the Magic
Color [Black Magic] (X) and use the ability Black - Bomb to destroy the
boulder at your right. Now go back again to the top and hop the pits (p) and
go destroy the boulder (b) near the exit. Go to the exit (duh!).

in the (F area) just avoid the steam coming out of the ground because they
would damage you. Just go to the exit.

In this area, the winds sometimes blow, so avoid jumping too much. You can

enemies that are blocking your way and prevent you from blowing away. Jump
the pits only when the wind is not blowing or else you will fall or fall back
(the Bubba is a major blockage on the way so take it out, even if you fall,
it does not matter). Just head for the exit.

*EXTRA PLACE FOR BOSS BATTLE*

Here you will see Belle and Duke.

*Story*
The two are waiting for Mint and they demand from Mint the stuff. Mint
will annoy Belle by calling her an old bag so she will call Hexagon and you
will fight her and Duke together.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Belle with Hexagon and Duke*
Challenge: Medium

First go beat the hell out of Duke, he is so annoying, constantly doing
uppercuts to you. After he is done, concentrate on Belle and Hexagon. You
need to jump kick her. Try doing that at Hexagon's back or after Hexagon has
finished doing his grab attack (move / jump away). After beating Belle out,
she will jump down and fight you face to face. Same strategy as before, just
attack her normally but avoid her while she has the swirling white stuff
around her until she throws it. Also jump if she casts the fire attack.

They will leave after the battle and you will automatically go to the next
area.

At the mountaintop...

*Story*
Mint will call for Wylaf. The dragon Wylaf will then arrive and say
something about a human dares to disturb him. Mint will ask for a Phantomite
but he doesn't like to give it because he will read Mint's mind and knows
that you just want the relic for world conquest. He will also sense a great
spirit because Mint will say that if anyone tries to destroy the world she
will beat them up because she is going to rule it, so he might reconsider.
But he will say that spirit alone is not enough to tame the Aeon's powers so
he will test Mint if she has power.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Wylaf*
Challenge: Medium

To damage him, you can use Blue - Icicle WHILE he swoops down at you (it
will eventually hit him and would cause him to go back up). If you are low
on MP, try attacking WHILE he again swoops down. He has other attacks that
are quite easy to avoid. Like if he breathes fire to the ground, just avoid
the ground and a + radius. The fire will remain there so avoid that too. If
he rapidly swoops down at you, just try to jump to other directions to avoid.
When his HP is below half, he will withdraw from the battle.

NOTE THAT YOU SHOULD NOT ATTACK ONCE HE SAYS THE FIGHT IS OVER OR ELSE
PREPARE TO GET ROASTED, errr ... I mean meet the Game Over Screen. Thanks to
KTeoh for giving this to me, check the Cool Stuff section to see more about
this.

*Story*
He will say that he has underestimated Mint. Mint then says that Wylaf
needs to rest, he will treat it as mockery. But as he promised, he will give
Mint the Phantomite and he will trust Mint that she would not bring end to
the world. Mint will ask Wylaf if he would like to work for her when she
rules the world but Wylaf will say that he will think about it.

*Cut Scene*
You will see Rue talking with Belle and Duke. They will say something
that Rue is carrying such a heavy load from his past so they decided to help
him out just for the moral duty. Rue will say that he does not need money
and only needs to use the [Relic] once and after that Belle and Duke can keep
it. After that, they will agree to work together.
*Cut Scene*

Mint will be automatically back in town will be called by Blood, as
always, together with Smokey (or the other way around). They will challenge
Mint for a battle at the forest. They will leave a note telling you that.
*Story*

You will be automatically back to town.

********************

Why don't you go and save your game at the inn and go to Carona Forest.

*******************

***********************************
* Items: Magic Effect (Circle) *

* Blood and Smokey *
***********************************

Go to the area where you always find Blood and Smokey.

*Story*
They will say that they have a new boss, he is the one with the red hair,
he will say that his name is the 'Trap Master'. Mint will call him porcupine
head and he will get mad and say that Mint is on his trap. Mint will then be
on Trap Masters own battlefield because he usually destroys the outside place
when he fights. Both of them (Mint and Trap Master) will then engage the
battle.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Trap Master*
Challenge: Easy

All you have to do here is to stand on the center and cast White - Vulcan.
He will just die. Just avoid jumping too much and stepping on blinking
platforms. You can die in this battle if you want.

*Story*
After that Trap Master will say that Mint was nothing and he can easily
kill her in a few seconds but he cannot kill Mint yet. The two, Blood and
Smokey will fight Mint because Trap Master will go away.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Blood and Smokey*
Challenge: Easy

You can either use White - Vulcan or just attack them till they lose. It
doesn't matter.

*Story*
Again, they will be beaten and they will run away. You will feel somewhat
good about it.
*Story*

After that, head for the cliffs area.

From (&), at (6) level of ground, the one near (8), (careful, you might
fall), use Black - Graviton on it and it will reveal a treasure box. From
the (&), the one beside where you are now, try to jump to the place where (P)
is [it will require many tries for you to get it because it is so hard], you
can get Magic Effect [Circle] from it. You need this thing even if it is so
frustrating to get.

After getting that, go to the place outside Cadmon's Atelier and go back to
town using the Go Home Plant there.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Mint will give him the Phantomite and he will be amazed that Mint got it.
He will take it and will say that he will make the Amulet for Prima right
away. Mint will then tell Klaus that only the Tiara is left and you are
going to get it from Belle and Duke but Rue will arrive telling Mint and
Klaus that there is no need for that because he already got it from Belle and
Duke at the hotel. Mint could not believe that he just got the Tiara easily
so she will ask Rue how he got it but for some reason, Rue would not tell it.

They will then put the Tiara on Prima Doll but ask what the Tiara is for.
Prima will say that the Tiara is used for decision making and certain
abilities, both mental and physical are on the Tiara which exceeds the
current intelligence which is only a mere backup. After a couple of small
talk, Mint will get mad at Prima Doll and shows him the finger. Also, after
that, Prima Doll will bug Klaus to finish the amulet as soon as possible but
he will suddenly stop. All of them will wonder what happened so they have to
talk to Mel to find out.

After the talk, go check out the town and if I am not mistaken you can get
2 Silver Coins and a Bronze Coin (I am not sure because I think that items in
places appear at random).

Go to Mel's Atelier.

*******************
* 'Mel's Atelier' **********************
****************************************
* Items: Magic Color [Yellow Magic] *
* Boss: Gorotan *
****************************************

Talk to Mel.

*Story*
By the time Mint arrives, Mel will ask her if she has given up the search
for Valen's [Relic] and she will say no. It is because that Mint's father
said that she should never quit once she started something. After that, Mint
will say that there is something wrong with Prima Doll. Mel will say to her
that it must be because of Prima Doll's energy being radiated after its long
rest in the cube. She will tell Mint that there might be a way to restore
Prima Doll's energy and that you need Gorotan's power, some guy that can
control the power of lightning. She also will say that she is not sure
whether it will work but it is worth the try and tells Mint to be careful
because Gorotan does not like visitors. Mel asks Mint to just find out where
Gorotan leaves from one of her assistants.
*Story*

Go outside the Atelier and talk to the Poppul Purrel that you helped
earlier. I think it is the one near the back.

*Story*
He will say to Mint that he knows where Gorotan is and asks Mint if she
wants to play with Gorotan now, say Yes and Mint will be in a room with a
flying guy thing.
*Story*

Go talk to the flying thing and it will transform into a big cat.

*Boss Battle - Gorotan*
Challenge: Medium

Avoid the star thingies that are around him and it will just go farther
away from him, leaving himself unprotected from your beating. Go near him
and cast Red - Napalm or just attack him to conserve MP, them immediately
jump/run aside to avoid the lightning bolt.

After the battle, you will get from him [Yellow Magic]. Go back to town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Mint will be blasting bolts to Prima Doll and Prima Doll will be charged
up. He should be ok now and he only needs to get the Amulet in order to
break the seal.
*Story*

I am not sure but iamnothing went to the tavern after this so head for the
tavern and maybe something will happen.

After going there, go leave the town and head for the Lakeside.

**************
* 'Lakeside' *
**************

In the lakeside, you will see Rue together with Elena.

*Story*
Elena will say something about after both Rue and Mint gets the [Relic]
she will become lonely because they will leave town. Elena will then ask
Mint what is she going to do after getting the [Relic] and Mint will reply to
her and say that she plans to take over the world with it. Now, Mint will
ask Rue what is he going to do after the it is over, and you will guess that
it is either Rue will stay in Carona or go back to his home town. If you
choose the option to 'Go back to his homeland', Rue will say that there would
be someone waiting for him back home. Mint will inquire who that person is
but Rue will say that it was someone that is 'like' a sister to him, but
still she is not yet at home. If you say that he will 'Stay in Carona' Mint
will tease Rue. After that, Rue will ask Elena how long is it going to take
to finish the Amulet but Elena will say that it will be finished soon. Rue
will leave, together with Elena to go back to town.
*Story*

Now that you are alone, go head back to town too.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Klaus will tell Mint that the Amulet is near completion and he will ask
Mint to take Prima Doll to the Lakeside. Mint does not want to but Prima
Doll will bug her so she will take Prima Doll to the Lakeside.
*Story*

Go leave the house and talk to Marcum, the fat guy that buys stuff from you
and he will give you 50 G. After that, I think there is a Bronze Coin
somewhere (but since item appearance, I think is at random so maybe it is not
there).

Interesting Stuff to Check Out (thanks to PyRo MaNiA for this one)
Prima Doll is following you right, why don't you go to the Grasslands and
talk to Johnny Wolf and he will follow Prima Doll, then talk to Rod, he will
join the 'train' party. Now, Mint will be followed by Prima Doll, which is
followed by Johnny Wolf, and Rod will be behind Johnny Wolf. You gotta see
this, it looks silly. (though I haven't seen it yet)

Also, according to grady, at the Grasslands there is a coin (see map below)

After that, go examine the gate and head for the Lakeside (again!).

**************
* 'Lakeside' *
**************

*Story*
Prima Doll will feel something good and Mint will tell him that it is
because it is his first time to experience the sunlight [or something like
that]. He will challenge Mint for a race to the shore. Mint is confident
that she is not going to lose from a doll.
*Story*

A good way to win the race is to block his way and run while he is at your
back. You can also lose the race.

*Story*
Doesn't matter if you win or lose, it would be just small talk. After
that, Prima Doll will say something about him, that he is just a tool that
would be used to unseal the [Relic]. Mint will comfort him by saying that he
is not a tool because for one reason he is crying and that he has feelings
[^_^]. Prima Doll will realize this and will thank Mint for the words.
After that, he will say that he wants to go back to town.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

After that, go to Klaus' house.

*Story*
Here, Klaus will say that he has finished doing the Amulet. Prima Doll
will try it on and he will feel great wearing it. Now they are ready to
break the seal so Klaus gets up and tries to walk but his ankle still hurts.
Elena will say that her father still needs to rest but Klaus will say that he
can't stop now because his dream is only a few steps away. Mint will say
that he should not worry because they have to prepare a boat first in order
to get to the ruins. Mint will say in her mind that now, she can keep the
[Relic] for herself.

In town, go to the Grasslands and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Mint will ask Rod to get his Pinto ready because she needs it. Rod will
ged mad and tells you why do you always call Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega,
Pinto, and if Mint is stupid or anything and he will ask you what is the name
of his baby. Just choose Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega (though I don't know
what will happen if you choose the other options). If you chose that, he
will tell Mint that she has a brain after all but then again, Mint will call
it Pinto. So now, Rod does not want to give you a ride but Mint will hear
Rod's stomach grumble. Mint will say to him that if that is his stomach and
Rod will say yes and that is because he does not get challenges lately and he
can't even afford a meal. Mint will then say that if Rod remembers what Mira
cooked for them when they first go to the Gamul Forest and tells him that she
can ask Mira again to cook that for them. Rod will get delighted and say
that he will get Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega and you go ask Mira to cook for
him.
*Story*

Go leave the grasslands and go back to Klaus' house. No need to tell Mira
about the food so just go talk to Klaus at the basement and say to him that
you will depart for the ruins.

*Story*
Mint and Prima Doll together with Rod will be going to the Ruins together.
Prima Doll asks you if you were going to ride that cool looking boat and Rod
will say to him that it is not a boat but Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega.
Prima Doll ignores it and still calls it a boat but he will hear from Mint
calling it Pinto and begins calling it Pinto too. There, you will then ride
the boat to the Lake Ruins.

****************
* 'Lake Ruins' *
****************

*Story*
At the Lake Ruins, Prima will go and unlock the seal but Mint keeps
disturbing him. At the second try, Maya will teleport there together with
Doll Master and Psycho Master. Maya will tell you that how could you have
forgotten East Heaven's duty that is to protect Valen's [Relic] from being
unsealed at all cost. After hearing this, Doll Master will grab Prima Doll
as with Mint is attacked by pumpkins summoned by Maya. Rue then arrives but
Psycho Master would be blocking him but Rod will also arrive and he will
punch Psycho Master. Rod will then take Prima Doll to safety. Rue will say
that he will be coming back (and at this point, he knows that Mint is truly a
princess) to save Mint because Mint is pinned on the ground by the pumpkin.
Maya will then fortify the Ruins with the help of the Book of Cosmos.

Go talk to the something at your back and...

*Story*
Maya will arrive and talk to Mint that she could not let a monster like
Mint rule the world because it would bring total chaos and send the world to
oblivion. She will leave and tell Mint that dinner would be served to you,
and all the dishes are pumpkins. So now Mint desperately wants to escape and
at that time, the grate in your place will open and a porcupine will come out
and transform into Rue and he will say that he has come back to rescue Mint.
Mint will get shocked and asks what he could not explain it very well and so
he removes his hat and shows you the gem on his forehead and he will tell
Mint that he is not human and that he does not know what he is. He will tell
Mint to forget about that now because they both need to escape from there.
He will open the lock.

In the next room, Rue will say something about invisible steps but he can
see them and sadly you can't. All you have to do is to let him guide you and
follow where he is stepping. At the end Mint would get her Magic back.
Proceed to the next room.


*Story*
Here some witch would fire a pumpkin and Rue will ask Mint to duck but
Mint will catch it on her face and Mint will tell him that he should not have
evaded it because there is a lady at his back [;_;]. He will than ask you to
ride the floating thing and he will go into another floating thing because it
can only accommodate 1 person.
*Story*

Here, just avoid the witches shots by jumping. You will reach the next
room.

In the next room

*Story*
Both of them, Mint and Rue will see Trap Master and Trap Master will say
that they are both caught on a trap. Both Rue and Mint will be falling down
the terrace because pumpkins surround them on front and they will fall if
they keep going back. Rue will ask Mint to jump and they will be saved by
Belle and Hexagon and they will leave.

*Cut Scene*
Mode Master will tell Doll Master that Mint escaped the dungeon. Here a
new plot will be visible that Doll Master wants to get the relic and he will
tell it to Maya because it is better to get it now than let it fall into the
wrong hands. Maya will stand on her beliefs that the kingdom is there to
protect the [Relic] and they should NEVER lay their hands on it.
*Cut Scene*

You will be in town and Mint wanted to ask a lot of questions to Rue but
Rue will say that they should talk about that at the Tavern because Belle and
Duke is waiting for him.
*Story*

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Before you go to the bar, why don't you go talk to Rod first at the
grasslands.

*Story*
Rod will encourage Mint to keep going because it is just her trial phase.
He has survived his trial phase already and that was when he wasn't able to
create good weapons. He will say that 'his woman' kept him going. She was
the one that encourages him when he is down and tells him to stop moping and
create a new weapon. He will say that Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega was her
only keepsake to him. Upon hearing this, Mint will think that the one Rod
was talking about is dead, but Rod will clarify that she, her name is Lucine
and she is not dead but he can't go see her until he marked a name in
history. He will tell then to Mint that she just have to keep on going no
matter what and do not give up.
*Story*

After that, go to the Tavern.

*Story*
Belle, Duke and Rue, will invite Mint in their table and they are going to
talk about something. Also, Belle and Duke already know that Mint is a
princess because Rue told them even if they could not believe it. Mint will
say to them that you have been through hell for the past 2 years. After
that, Rue will then tell his story. He will say that it was 5 years ago that
when he was alone and he was lost, he could have just fallen apart if it
wasn't for Claire. He will say that she is dead now so that is why he needs
the [Relic] to revive her. Duke will say that that story always touches him
every time, and also he will tell you that he already know this because Rue
have told them this when Rue asked for the Tiara.
*Story*

Now that most things are clarified, it is time for a good night sleep.
Head for the inn and ask Ms. Cartha to go to your room. You will
automatically sleep.

Go out the inn and take note that the left (Ms. Cartha's left) door is
broken so you have to leave through the right (Ms. Cartha's right) door.

*Story*
As Mint goes out, she will be greeted by Psycho Master. He will tell you
that Maya demands to get Prima Doll and of course Mint will refuse and tells
Psycho Master that Maya can put the demands up her butt. After that, Psycho
Master will leave and Elena will arrive and tells Mint that while they were
in the forest they were attacked by dolls. So Mint decided to go check the
forest out.

There are new enemies to this place (though they are only here
temporarily), the Puppets and Specters. I think Fire deals good damage to
the Specters. Here, just run to the place where Blood and Smokey is always
at.

*Story*
Mint will see that Blood and Smokey are surrounded by puppets. She
decides whether to help or not to help Blood and Smokey.
*Story*

Choose the option that will make you help both of them because after
killing the 4 puppets ...

*Story*
Blood and Smokey will thank Mint but Mint will say that she did not help
them because the puppets were on her way. Hearing this, Blood and Smokey
will run away and Blood will drop an item for Mint. Mint will pick it up and
she can't believe that they gave her an expensive item.
*Story*

After that go to the place where you were jumped to get to the cliffs.

*Story*
Here Mint will see Mira, fighting Trap Master. Mint will arrive and say
to Trap Master that she has defeated many of his dolls and asks Trap Master
to give up. Trap Master will say that they create them like crazy and he
summons more puppets to that place, after saying that he will leave. The
puppets will corner Mint and a Specter will arrive and defeat the puppets for
you, he is actually Rue. You will automatically end up in town.
*Story*

First go check out Tonio's shop. He is selling new stuff.

Mythril Bracer - 5,500 G - Bonus Strength +20
Mythril Belt - 5,500 G - Bonus Defense +20

After buying those stuff, why don't you go fight Rod, he has a new weapon
called 'Black Tornado'. If you don't like to fight him, just go to Klaus'
house.

*Story*
Klaus will thank Mint for saving his family. Prima Doll will say that if
he gave up himself to them, it could prevent many bad things. He will say
that it is because of him that bad things happen. Mint will say to Prima
Doll that she is fighting for Prima Doll, and she is not protecting Prima
Doll just for anyone but she is fighting because she needs to get the [Relic]
to conquer the world. And because of that, Prima Doll should not dare
attempt to give his self up.

After that topic, they will talk about shutting down the doll factories.
Rue will say that he will check out the Ghost Temple and you Mint go check
out the Underground Ruins because Klaus saw some of them there too.
*Story*

After that, go to the Underground Ruins.

***********************************************

*Story*
When Mint arrives there, she will wonder why Maya wants to get the
[Relic], and that contradicts what she said earlier at the Lake Ruins. After
that, Maya and Psycho Master will arrive (and Mint will go hide) and Maya
will say that she will protect the Underground Ruins personally. Maya will
teleport into the ruins.
*Story*

Go follow Maya and inside the Underground Ruins, just go forward twice (you
don't need to go down the long way). The wall beside the entrance to the
room where Rue used to stand is now gone, and you can go down there, and you
will automatically be in the room where you need to get the platforms in
order to go to the room above. You will notice that the platforms are not
there so you have to get them all again. Also there are skeletons in this
place but they just go down and stand up again. After getting them all go
back to that room and step on the platforms, exit at the top exit and drop
down the hole and go get the heal point and go to the next room, the room
with the blinking platforms.

*Story*
Maya will be there, trying to jump from platform to platform. Mint will
ask her what is she up to and Maya will say that she has changed and maybe
she got your evil nature. She will bring up the topic that since Mint are in
the Underground Ruins and that boy Rue is at the Ghost Temple, then who is
protecting the town. After hearing this, Mint will know that the dolls were
just acting as decoys because they are really going to attack the town. Mint
will immediately back to town.

*Cut Scene*
In town, you will see Doll Master saying that he, in behalf of Princess
Maya of East Heaven Kingdom, demands to get Prima Doll. Nobody answers so he
threatens to burn the town and kill all the residents. After that he will
call Psycho Master and Doll Master will order him to destroy the inn and kill
all the occupants. But Duke will stop them and saying that he has a new act
but he will be blown away by Trap Masters trap (duh!). Belle then says that
she will take all of them on.
*Cut Scene*

Mint arrives in town and she kicks Doll Master for an entrance, but Doll
Master would evade it and he let Psycho Master take you to Church and there
you will fight. Inside the Church, Psycho Master dares you to attack him on
his front side.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Psycho Master*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

To defeat him, you have to attack his back. Never attack his front
because he will grab you and deal you damage. If he throws certain attacks
like a round thing that would move from his body to the outer surrounding
areas and stuff, you can jump that attack. If he floating and trying to move
closer to you, just run away and move in a circular motion around him.

*Story*
After the battle, he just said that he just bought enough time and now
Mint is free to go. He will then disappear.

Outside, Trap Master is fighting Belle and when he got bored, he will
engage the trap and blow away Belle too just like what happened to Duke.
After that, Klaus would be defending Prima Doll. He will say that he would
not give up a member of his family. Doll Master would be impressed by what
he said but will ask him how come he wanted to risk his life for a tool. And
as Klaus said earlier, he wouldn't give up a member of his family and so Doll
Master cannot believe this and he will shoot Klaus with energy.

Mint will get out of the church and she will see Prima Doll being taken by
Doll Master. Prima Doll asks Mint to rescue him and beat up the bad guys.
Mint will say that she will come, beat up the bad guys and save Prima Doll,
and that would be a promise. Now, all the enemies will leave together with
Prima Doll.

Rue will arrive and Mint will say to him that they took Prima Doll. Rue
will regret that he has arrived late and if only he was earlier, the enemies
could have not taken Prima Doll. Mint will say that he will rescue Prima and
Klaus will tell you that they might have taken Prima on the tower that
appeared in the lake. Now Mint has to go there.

It will automatically be morning and what you do here is you leave town and
go to the Tower of Maya (which was formerly the Lakeside).

*Story*
Mint will say that it is time to kick some major butt or something and
then ...

*Cut Scene*
Doll Master will demand from Prima Doll to open the seal but Prima Doll
does not want to do it. Doll Master will threaten Prima Doll by saying that
he will destroy the town so Prima Doll will do it. After breaking the seal
you will see something that will rise up and form a fortress.
*Cut Scene*

Rue will see it together with Mint and he will say that all their efforts
are wasted because Valen's [Relic] is there. Mint will say to Rue that it is
not yet over and if he wants to save Claire then they should not give up.

Just go enter the top door.

In the round room, just run up and fight the enemies you encounter such as
Wabbits, Witches and Pumpkins. All are easy to kill but you need to use
Yellow - Spark or Yellow - Trine to get rid of the witches that are annoying
you because you can't get them using physical attacks.

Here just go get 2 Gold Coins (1) but pumpkins will bust through the door

You have to jump across the moving stuff. You can only step on the ones
that are moving right to left or vice versa and the ones that are turning
clockwise. If you fall, the place below will be surrounded by force fields
and you have to kill all the pumpkins in order to get out. Kill the witch on
the floating platform (p) and go get the 2 Star Stones and step on the
Restore HP and leave the place using the top exit.

In the next place, you have to hop on the big round thing in the middle and
enemies (Pumpkins) will fall down and you just have to defeat them all until
you get to the top. At the top, from the round thing, go up the stairs and
get out of the room.

The room is actually round, but this is ASCII map, that is the best that it

room and move a clockwise in order to see it. After getting this, go up and
exit the place.

Again, just like the previous room, just go get the 2 Gold coins and if you

First go step on (1) but if you fall you can step on the middle (x) to get
back up. After stepping on one, beat up the Wabbits first because they are
blocking access to the other platform (2 and 3). You have to step on (1)
then (2) then (3), you can wait for (3) to stop unlike (1 and 2) because at
the end of (3)s ride it will not throw you but it would wait for a few
seconds. Go get the Legendary Helmet (L) and step on the Restore HP spot.
Go exit the place.

At the next room, you will see Trap Master

*Story*
Trap Master will say that he got the permission to kill Mint now so he
attacks her and puts her into his own battle field.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Trap Master*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Just use White - Vulcan while you are at the middle platform, he will just
die and leave you nothing to worry about. If you wish to a have a flawless
battle, if a shadow appears on top of you, get out of there because an spiked
ball will fall. After that, do not step on the blinking platforms because
they can deal you damage.

*Story*
After the battle, Trap Master will ask you to finish him off so Mint does
her magic stance but Trap Master will say that that won't do because you have
to go near him and beat him up to do it. Mint knows that this is a trap so
she does not want to go near Trap Master. He will compliment you that you
are not so dumb after all and that he will tell Mint that she'll regret it
because he will come get Mint in the future. He will just mope there for a
while so Mint will automatically advance to the next room.

In the next room, Maya is there, and Mint will demand that she release
Prima Doll. She will say that Prima Doll is not there but at the Lake Ruins.
But you would also want to fight her and she wants to fight you too. Maya
will say to Mint that there is no need to worry because she won't use the
Book of Cosmos on this battle and she will use her own powers to fight.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Maya*
Challenge: Easy

Just whack her till she dies. If she summon pumpkins, go whack them all
to gain some HP or MP. But if she turns you into a pumpkin just jump and run
around and she won't be able to get you.

*Story*
After the battle, Maya will get humiliated because she cannot defeat MInt
with her own power. Then suddenly, her body will be blinking and she will
turn back into Mode Master. Mint will ask her why did she turn herself into
Maya but she would run and Mint would chase her. She will stop inside the
dungeon and you will see 2 Maya. They would be pointing at each other that
the other one is Maya. So Mint would decide who the real Maya is and jump
kick the imposter.

Go kick the right one because it is truly Maya and it would be funny to do
so [^_^] but if you are a bit serious at this point, attack the left one.

After that, Mode Master would reveal that Doll Master used the Kingdom to
achieve his goals which is getting Valen's [Relic]. Maya will be so
humiliated hearing this because she let someone like Doll become an Imperial
Magician. Mint will say something about Doll Master's sneaky personality and
something but Mode Master will tell you that if you have heard what Doll
Master has been through, you will understand him. She was supposedly going
to tell you this but Trap Master would interrupt her, and will call her
'Kirielle' [so that's her true name]. Trap Master will give Maya back the
Book of Cosmos but Maya would ask why is he giving this but Trap Master will
say that it does not matter because it is just crap compared to the Dewprism,
which is Valen's [Relic] which the Doll Master would be getting. Mode Master
will tell Mint and Maya that Prima must have been taken to Valen's Fortress.

Maya will tell Mint that she would come back to Carona but Mint will tell
her not to go there because the townspeople may still be mad at her so Mint
decided to take her to *the* place [hehehe!], to Mel.
*Story*

You will be automatically brought to town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' ***********************************
******************************************************
* Item: Platinum Coin (now, or later in the game) *
******************************************************

You may like to go to register at the inn first then leave the inn and go
buy the best bonus status stuff in the game from Tonio's shop.

Brave Bracer - 6,500 G - Bonus Strength +24
Black Belt - 6,500 G - Bonus Defense +24

After that, you may like to give the Legendary Stuff to Jargen, the
bartender at the (duh!) Tavern. He will offer you the following as dishes.
_________________________________________________________________
| Dish | Enemies Required | Status Raised |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Minced Fire Blobs | 50 Fire Blobs | +10 Maximum HP |
| Mushroom Soup | 60 Fungies | +10 Maximum MP |
| Pollywog Souffle | 50 Pollywogs | +2 Base Strength |
| Gudon Liver Soup | 30 Gudons | +2 Base Defense |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|

You can only cook 10 times and the Legendary equipment will be overused but
if that happens he will give you a Platinum Coin. I suggest that you should
either get the Pollywog Souffle and Gudon Liver Soup because you can get a +2
Bonus for each of them.

I think this would be the last times you can fight Rod so you better beat
him up pretty bad until you don't feel like it anymore.

Go to Mel's Atelier after that.

*******************
* 'Mel's Atelier' *****
***********************
* Item: Cannon Orb *
***********************

Go to Mel's house.

*Story*
Maya will tell Mint something about Dewprism. She will say that it is a
pure essence of the trickles of forces in the universe [or something like
that]. The Dewprism was created by Valen by compressing and crystallizing
the forces and turned it into a [Relic]. It is the ultimate power of the
universe. After that, Mint will ask if the Doll Master took a big part in
her being kicked out of the kingdom and Maya will answer her question with a
yes. Maya will tell Mint that maybe the Doll Master saw Mint as a big threat
so he and the kingdom decided to kick you out.

Mel will ask Mint about how is she going to go up the fortress but Mint
will reply her with a no. Mel will give Mint a Cannon Orb and tells her that
it is up to her what to do with it. Maya will ask Mint if she is going to go
up the fortress and Mint will say that she is going.

- The screen will turn and you see the flying things pinch Mel's behind and
she is going to slap them [;_^].
*Story*

Note: If Mel didn't give you the Cannon Orb, you will have to play with a
Poppul Purrel (the one you found in the forest) in order to get it. Contributed
by MahalLynx (MahalLynx@aol.com)

Go back to town.

********************

****************************

Here, go to the Grasslands and talk to Rod.

*Story*
Rod will tell Mint that Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega has the ability to
fly but it needs to have an additional 5 Cannon Orbs. He will say something
about the Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega needs 5 Cannon Orbs in it's Sorcery
driver [or something] to function as a boat and 10 Cannon Orbs for it be able
to fly. Mint will give him one Cannon Orb, the one she got from Mel and will
tell him that she will find more of those.

Go to Klaus house and talk to Klaus

*Story*
Mint will ask Klaus if he has a thing called a Cannon Orb because she
needs it in order to go Valen's Fortress. He will say that he know something
like that and he will give it to you. Klaus will tell Mint that she is just
like Mira when Mira was young.
*Story*

Now, go to the tavern.

*Story*
In here, Mint will see Belle and Duke and she will ask them if they know
something about the Cannon Orb. Belle will tell Mint that they have one and
they are using it to power up Hexagon, but she will let Mint borrow it for a
while. But Mint needs to promise that she will help Rue once she got the
Dewprism [^_^]. Belle and Duke will leave the bar and say to Mint that they
will give it to Rod after they take it out so Mint does not have to worry
about getting it from them. Mint will wonder how she is going to help Rue.
*Story*

After that go to Hobbs' Shop.

*Story*
Mint will see the Cannon Orb and she will look for the price tag and it
will say look like it costs 100 G. Mint will tell Hobbs that she is going to
buy it but Hobbs will tell her that it is not 100 G but 100 M or 100,000,000
G. Mint does not have enough money so she will think of someone who can pay
it. First she will think of Rue but she remembers that he does not have that
much money. Second, she will think about Belle but also remembers that she
is already in debt. After that, Klaus but then she knows that Klaus does not
earn that much money. Now, there would be someone in her mind and Mint will
tell Hobbs that someone would be paying it for her but still Hobbs want some
form of down payment so he will ask you for 5,000 G.
*Story*

Go give the 5,000 G that Hobbs is asking you.

*Story*
Hobbs will hand you the Cannon Orb and go leave the shop. Mint will then
reveal that the one that would be paying for it was Maya.
*Story*

After that, head for the Grasslands and Mint will automatically [I think]
will talk to Belle.

*Story*
Belle will say that she have been waiting for Duke and Rod to arrive for
about an hour already but Rod and Duke will arrive with Rod injured. They
will tell Mint that they have challenged Wylaf because they heard that the
dragon had a Cannon Orb.

At the start Wylaf does not want to give the Cannon Orb to Rod because
Wylaf wants to test them if he is worthy to get it. Rod would be fighting
Wylaf and Duke will arrive late because he had to fix his act. They would
then fight together against Rod to test their hearts.

"Without heart, we are nothing" - Rod and Duke

They would win and they would be able to get the Cannon Orb which they
have brought now but sadly [;_;], Rod cannot pilot Pulsar Inferno Typhoon
Omega because he has suffered a lot of damage. Rod will ask Duke to act like
him and fly his 'baby' to Valen's Fortress, Duke will accept this.

Go to the peak where you fought Wylaf.

*Story*
Mint will see Rue and he will thank her because she encouraged him when he
was about to give up. Thanks to Mint, he will not give up anymore. He will
then ask Wylaf for Dragon Wings and Wylaf would give it to him and he will
turn into a dragon. Rue will say to Mint before he leaves for the fortress
that he is not going to forget Mint.

After that, Wylaf would read Mint's mind and he will know that she wants
something like that too, so he will give Mint the Magic Effect [Hyper] but he
still needs to test her if she is worthy to have it.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Wylaf*
Challenge: Medium - Hard

Same things like the previous battle to take note hear. Avoid the +
effect of his fire breath to the ground. Begin casting Blue - Icicle or
press the attack button continuously before he even drops on the ground so
that you can immediately damage him. Avoid the cyclones that he will be
summoning or else it would take you to the sky and deal you damage. Also if
he charges you, avoid it by jumping to another direction.

After the battle

*Story*
Wylaf will recognize that Mint is worthy to have it so he will give the
Magic Effect [Hyper] to her. He will say that he will be leaving the
mountain if Mint has united the world under her rule and he will be serving
her. Mint will leave the place and after that Wylaf will call someone to
come out from hiding.

Mel will come out and tells Wylaf that it has been along time and just
like the Aeons, they will be gone soon. Both of them would agree that the
world's fate is up to the younger generations now, whether they will destroy
or protect it. Mel will wonder if Mint will be ok but Wylaf will say that
they can trust her.
*Story*

You will automatically end up in town.

********************
* 'Town of Carona' *
********************

Now that you are here, I would suggest that if you have not yet destroyed
the Legendary stuff yet, go beat up Pollywogs and Gudons (remember to get
only enough since the Legendary stuff will break after 10 meals) [Don't waste
time beating Fire Blobs and Fungies because +10 HP or +10 MP is not worth it]
after destroying it, the bartender will give you a Platinum Coin.

After that, if you think you have missed something, go check out the
section Side Stuff. If you have done all of them go to the inn and register
and go talk to Belle.

*Story*
Belle will ask Mint if she wants to go to Valen's Fortress now, choose to
depart.

Rod will say that he is counting on Duke to take Pulsar Inferno Typhoon
Omega. Duke will say that he will pilot Pinto. Rod will get mad because it
is not Pinto but Pulsar Inferno Typhoon -- but he can't finish because his
injuries hurt.

On it, as Duke begins the ride, Pinto would be running slowly and Mint
will assume that

"Hey I know, Belle's big butt is weighing us down." - Mint

Duke will flip a switch but it will stop and after a while, it would be
going real fast and at that speed you will fly and arrive to Valen's
Fortress.

Mint, Duke, and Belle will arrive at the place also, Mint feels sick
because of the ride.

"Barfing is always so refreshing." - Mint

After that, Mint will see Prima Doll, which is a little low on energy,
because it has just broken the seal. Prima Doll will tell Mint that he
stayed awake to give her a good luck charm which is on his amulet. He will
give Mint [Gold Magic]. After that, Prima Doll will ask Mint to beat up the
bad guys and now that he has said that, he needs to rest and transforms
himself into a cube. Mint will ask Belle to protect the cube for her and
Belle will say that she would take care of it and Belle will ask Mint to come

*Story*
Mint will arrive at room (1) and will wonder why the 2 center I don't know
what they are called or [IDKWTAC] are lighted.
*Story*

Rooms 2, 4, 6 & 8 are like a curved rooms that has enemies (Jinns and
Hellhounds). They can be used (attack them) if you want to refill your MP.

__________________________________________________Objective Sheet____________
Here is what you should do:

Your objective is to light the two [IDKWTAC] on the center.

for example:

I I I I
\ /
|
Light these two and keep the ones beside them unlighted.

A rock will fall and you have to take them to room 1.

Note that you cannot attack / fight, even use magic when you are carrying a
rock.

For clarity reasons, you have to do the steps (steps [a] then [b] and so
on) but you can do the rooms in any order. (Thanks to chojin66 for this
one).
__________________________________________________Objective Sheet____________

Room 1: a. Use Blue - Droplets to extinguish the two lighted [IDKWTAC]
(which are 2 and 3)
b. Then use Fire - Burner on the two of them [meaning you will
extinguish them and light them again] (2 and 3).
c. A red stone will drop.
______________
| 1 2 3 4 | 1 and 4 - Unlit
| s | 2 and 3 - Lit
| s s | s. That is where the stones are to be placed
|______s_____|

Room 3: a. Use Red - Burner on the two at the center (2 and 3)
b. A rock will be floating on top of your head, take that to room
1.
_____________
| 1 2 3 4 | All [IDKWTAC] Unlit
| |
| |
|___________|

Room 5: a. Use Red - Burner on (2)
b. Then, use Green - Wave on (3). Take the rock to room 1.
_____________
| 1 2 3 4 | 1, 2 and 4 - Unlit
| | 3 - It has a low flame
| |

Room 7: a. Use Blue - Droplets on (1 and 4).
b. Take the rock to room 1.
_____________
| 1 2 3 4 | All the [IDKWTAC] are lit
| |
| |
|___________|

After placing the rocks at room one, you will automatically advance to the
next room.

*Story*
Mint will see Psycho Master and Psycho Master will say that he cannot
allow her to go on further and disturb what the Doll Master is doing. It is
because that the Doll Master is taking the Cursed Crossways wherein he will
face the fears of your past. He also cannot allow Mint to go back and Mint
has to end the battle there.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Psycho Master*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Do not touch the invisible barrier because it will deal you damage. Note
again that you can only attack him at his back. When he floats and chases
you, run around the room (but avoid the invisible barrier) and around him.
When he casts the blue floating things, just get hit by them, it is only
cheap damage anyway. Use Blue - Restore if you want to Recover HP.

*Story*
Psycho Master will say that even though you have defeated him, you cannot
go after the Doll Master because the Cursed Crossways is a difficult test.
After that Mint will kick him and she will proceed to the next room and is
confident that she can conquer the next test, the Cursed Crossways.

Here you have to go through all teleporters, beating the enemies in the
place you will appear to. I believe that there is some kind of order here
but sadly, I can't remember. The enemies here are pitiful so you can easily
defeat them. Also if you are low on HP in the degree of:
Ultra low - Fight at 1 or 3
Low - Fight at 3 or 7
Medium - Fight at 6 or 7
to regain health (by beating up enemies and getting the potions (the red or
blue stuff that they leave behind).

After beating all the rooms, the center will have a save point and (A) will
become a teleporter which has a Restore HP, save and hop onto it.

*Story*
In the next room, Mint will see Doll Master who is beating Rue up. Doll
Master is opening the final seal that would lead to the Dewprism. Doll
Master will say that he is impressed that Mint was able to get that far
because in the first place, she was just some lousy princess [or something
like that] and now it turned out that she is the one that is going to stop
him. Doll Master will ask what Mint's reason is.

"Oh? Enlighten me. If you have come here for justice, it would be the
joke of the century." - Doll Master

Mint will say that she journeyed that far not for justice but to get hold
of the Dewprism and conquer the world. She will also say that she wants to
send Doll Master to hell because she was homeless for the past 2 years
because of him. Doll Master will clarify this and will say to Mint that it
was not his fault that Mint was not going to be queen because it was the
decision of the High Council, together with the King. Now, Mint will
contradict what she said earlier that she have come for justice and the two
are going to fight..
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Doll Master*
Challenge: Easy

Just attack him or use White - Arrow. Don't even think of evading his
attacks because they are pitiful. Since his efforts are pathetic, it could
help his pride that he damaged you by a little bit or something.

*Story*
After the battle, Mint will continually attack Doll Master and Doll Master
will utter something about his goal and the relic. After saying that, he
will disappear and leave his mask. Mint will approach Rue who is still
unconscious and tries to wake him up. He would not respond so Mint decided
to go for the relic but Rue will say "Claire" so Mint decided to drag Rue and
say that ok, she will revive Claire with HER Dewprism. She will go to the
next room while dragging Rue.

In the next room, Mint will see the Dewprism and she will express her
claim but someone will arrive. Mint will ask who the guy is but he will say
that Mint is in his fortress and she doesn't know who he is. Mint will
realize that she is talking to Valen but will wonder that how come he is
still alive because all the Aeons are dead. Valen can read Mint's mind and
he will answer the question and that he is only a spirit. Mint will ask if
she can have the Dewprism because Valen cannot use it without a physical body
but Valen will take over Rue's body, wherein he will say that a doll's body
is good enough for him [so Rue is a doll]. Valen will say something about
purifying the world and he will be god but Mint will say that it is her world
and that nobody can destroy it. For that, Valen will summon some creatures
and you will be the one to experience his purification.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Valen*
Challenge: Medium

Here, you have to damage Valen which is in Rue's body. You can use Yellow
- Trine or Yellow - Final Flash when Valen is near you. Regain your HP by
using Blue - Restore, and your MP by attacking the guy that Valen will
summon. If he summons the guy, attack the guy until it is dead. If it is
moving around while in a slicing pose, just jump when it is coming your way.
If it is jumping around, just jump when it is about to land on the ground.
When it is doing something stupid [like standing and doing some pose], attack
it because it will restore Valen's health.

*Story*
After that, there would be struggle within Rue's body and Valen's spirit
will be cast out by the spirit of Claire that is residing in Rue's body.
Maya will arrive and she is going to attack Valen using the Book of Cosmos.
She will say that even though it is very much weaker than the Dewprism, it
doesn't matter because Valen cannot use the Dewprism without a physical body.
Valen will say that actually he can use it if he decides to become the Light.
He will tell something about the power of the Dewprism to turn a light into a
new and superior light. After saying those things, he will enter the
Dewprism to become the 'Light'. Maya will ask Mint for both of them to work
together and she will give Mint the power of the Book of Cosmos, which has
Magic Effect [Cosmos] in order to fight Valen.
*Story*

*Boss Battle - Valen*
Challenge: Easy - Medium

Here, the only time you can damage him when he is a bit red and that is
after storming you with a White - Vulcan like attack. If you are low on HP,
just use Blue - Restore and attack Valen six times when he is on the ground
for a full MP (you can also restore MP in the same way). When he is flying,
he will attempt to grab you so just run away from it and just run to some
direction when it is going to blast you with the 2 barreled White - Vulcan
like attack. When you are seeing an overhead view, it is preparing for the
suck maneuver. Here, just run down and move left or right so you can avoid
the shots and avoid getting sucked in. Now, when he is hovering, he will
storm you with the White - Vulcan like attack. When that happens, set your
magic to Yellow - Final Flash or Yellow - Trine and hold triangle while you
are being hit with the White - Vulcan - like attack for an immediate fire.
If you use Yellow - Final Flash, two of that would get rid of him.


The actual way to thrash Valen:

contributed by Dragoon Gohan (DragoonGohan@aol.com)

- use gold color magic and cosmos. when he is in the sky, and ready to
use a vulcan looking move, use the shield. then let go. the powered sheild
will hit valen! repeat and rinse. heh heh.

Congratulations, you have finished Mint's story. I actually played Mint
first and if you want to know my time is 19:43. [Yeah, yeah, I took a
loooooong time to finish the game, but it was really hard to do the maps and
writing while reading or playing the game and stuff so sometimes I let go of
the controller and write stuff on paper.]

If you have finished Mint's story only:
- After the credits, you will see something like End of Mint's story. You
will be asked if you want to save the game which is Rue 0:00. Save your game
and you will see Mint's picture has a color now. After that, you will be
asked if you want to: - Play the Rue Episode
- Return to the Title Screen
- Return to the Save Screen
do anything you want.

But if you have finished Rue's and Mint's story, proceed to the next
section, So you've finished the game.


#######################################
## ---So You've Finished the Game--- ##
#######################################

If you have finished the game, both Rue and Mint, after the credits you
will be able to see an epilogue about what is going to happen in their lives
next now that ... and ... is gone. The game would leave you something to
wonder about in maybe the next sequel or just for rumors or story that you
could tell other people because there is another ... for ... to ... which ...
and that ... asks ... to ...

You can also choose to save the game and start the game with either Rue and
Mint with them having the current status that you have left them with. They
also have the same items when you finished their story but there is a little
extra for Mint, she would have all the Magic colors and effects.

Also, the save occupies only 1 space and that it contains 2 characters on 1
save space. There have been rumors floating around that you can fight the
final boss together for something but none of them has really been proven.

I think that this save is just there to add some 'thought' that the game
having a replay value [just like Chrono Trigger's - New Game Plus Mode]
though it is really not necessary because there are no bonus dungeons or
quest [As for me and the others think as of now] that you can go to.

## ---The Town--- ##
####################

You will be staying at the Town of Carona the whole game so you better get
used to it. There are no other towns in the game (just like Brave Fencer
Musashi).

|_________| D |_________|

1. Church - Being run by Doyle, talk to him if you want to pray and give
donations. By giving donations, he will give you coins. [Better call it the
Coin Shop rather than a church]. Coins are used when you are knocked out (O
HP) and you want to continue the game at the same spot.
___________________________________________________________________
| Donation | Coins | Description |
|------------------------------------------------------------------
| 1,000 G | 10 Bronze Coins | Full HP & 1/4 MP |
| 5,000 G | 5 Silver Coins | Full HP & 1/2 MP |
| 10,000 G | 2 Gold Coins | Full HP & MP |
| 30,000 G | 1 Platinum Coin | Full HP & MP, +1 STR & DEF |
|----------------------------------|------------------------------|

2. Hotel - Being run by Leeson, the guy at the counter and Solin, the
bellboy or security guard, talk to Leeson and pay 500 G to get a hotel room.
Sleeping in a hotel is just like sleeping in the inn but if you sleep in a
hotel, you may get a dream that is somewhat related to the side quests (for
example after 'World Domination, Baby', if you sleep there, you will dream of
a monkey going down the stump of the tree then you need to go there and
follow what the monkey did).

Also, in the hotel room, sometimes there are items that can be
found. I already found the Dream Stone and a Bronze Coin together with
Silver Coin. I found out that these (through an experience) that these items
appear at random (except for the Dream Stone) so check the Hotel if you want
to.

3. Klaus' House - As the name states, this is Klaus' house. You need to
go back here most of the time or all of the time after completing a quest in
which you got an item which needs to be interpreted by Klaus. Many parts of
the story takes place in this house, such as talking about something that is
part of the storyline. You can also give the Mysterious Statue to Klaus for
a +10 MP [Rue Only].

4. Item Shop - Being run by Tonio, this is the place to buy the bonus
items (bonuses for strength or defense). You can sell your Monster Coins,
Stones and the rare stuff that you found in the game here (DO NOT SELL RARE
STUFF ESPECIALLY THE RARE WINE, NEVER EVER EVER SELL THE RARE WINE).
The bonuses doesn't add up (example if you buy Bronze Bracer which is +4 then
buy Silver Bracer +8, your bonus will be +8 and NOT +12).

Items that I have bought so far - to be updated as I progress
________________________________________________________
| Item | Cost | Description |
|------------------------------------------------------|
| Bronze Bracer | 1,000 G | +4 Strength Bonus |
| Silver Bracer | 3,000 G | +8 Strength Bonus |
| Gold Bracer | 3,500 G | +12 Strength Bonus |
| Platinum Bracer | 4,500 G | +16 Strength Bonus |
| Mythril Bracer | 5,500 G | +20 Strength Bonus |
| Brave Bracer | 6,500 G | +24 Strength Bonus |
|------------------------------------------------------|
| Bronze Belt | 1,000 G | +4 Defense Bonus |
| Silver Belt | 3,000 G | +8 Defense Bonus |
| Gold Belt | 3,500 G | +12 Defense Bonus |
| Platinum Belt | 4,500 G | +16 Defense Bonus |
| Mythril Bracer | 5,500 G | +20 Defense Bonus |
| Black Belt | 6,500 G | +24 Defense Bonus |
|------------------------------------------------------|

5. Inn - After the first Atelier, you can stay here for free. Here, you
can recover your HP (HP Only). You can save your game and go to your room
too.

A. Docks - Some coins just come out at the docks at random so be sure to
check them when you feel like it.

______________________
| | 6 _| | Town of Carona (B)
= |___|=| ____|
| | | 6. Tavern
| = 7 | 7. Hobbs' Shop
| |___|
| |
|____________________|

6. Tavern - Being run by the bartender together with the waitress Annette.
At the first time, if you talk to Annette many times, she will treat you with
Milk or Root beer. But after that, you have to buy them from the bartender.
Also after getting the Brooch at Gamul Forest [Mint Only], you can give it to
Annette and she will give you a discount on the drinks. The drinks here
restores MP. For me, it is not worth it because I whack enemies if I want MP
(it costs free and I get to earn money too!).
_________________________________________________________________
| Drink | Cost | Discounted Cost | Restores |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Milk | 50 G | 10 G | 10% MP |
| Root Beer | 120 G | 30 G | 25% MP |
| Tropical Delight | 220 G | 50 G | 50% MP |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|

Also, here, if you give the 3 Legendary Stuff, the Legendary
Sword, also known as the Kitchen Knife, the Legendary Shield or a Frying Pan,
and the Legendary Helmet or a pot to the bartender, he can create dishes that
will increase your parameters (just like buying from Hobbs' Shop). After
cooking a number of dishes he will say that he has overused his items and it
will break (after cooking 10 times) but he will give you a Platinum Coin.
_________________________________________________________________
| Dish | Enemies Required | Status Raised |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| Minced Fire Blobs | 50 Fire Blobs | +10 Maximum HP |
| Mushroom Soup | 60 Fungies | +10 Maximum MP |
| Pollywog Souffle | 50 Pollywogs | +2 Base Strength |
| Gudon Liver Soup | 30 Gudons | +2 Base Defense |
|---------------------------------------------------------------|

7. Hobbs' Shop - Shop owned by Hobbs, you can upgrade your base status
here. At first it is expensive (30,000 G each) but when you have the Rare
Wine (found in the Underground Ruins), you can give it to him and he will
give you a discount (now, 5,000 G). (SO DO NOT SELL THE RARE WINE FOR HOW
MANY 1000 - 5000 G BECAUSE IT IS NOT, AND DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT.)
_________________________________________________________________________
| Upgrade | Effects | Original Cost | Discounted Cost |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Strength | Base Strength +1 | 30,000 G | 5,000 G |
| Defense | Base Defense +1 | 30,000 G | 5,000 G |
| HP | Maximum HP +10 | 30,000 G | 5,000 G |
| MP | Maximum MP +10 | 30,000 G | 5,000 G |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|

______________=__
|| | | Town of Carona - Grasslands (C)
||____| |
||_PO_| | - this is where you will be fighting Rod
| | - Pulsar Inferno Typhoon Omega or Pinto (by Mint)
| |
|+++++++++++++++|
| |
|_______________|

This is the place where in you can fight Rod for 100 G and if you win he
will give you 1000 G. Also this is the place to go to during the nighttime
because if you do, you can hear many things about Rod's past [;_;] and he can
encourage you to go on with your quest (and to go to sleep [^_^]).

Note that Rod's ability, speed, and status increase every time you fight
him. He also changes his weapons once in a while.

Rods weapons: (Silver Breeze, Golden Gale, Black Tornado and Hurricane)

Also, if you fight Rod a lot ... and win, he'll give you coins (but after
that, you have to give him a break in order for him to develop a new weapon).
Thanks to William Chang (garnet_ibanez@hotmail.com) for this one.

Silver Breeze - Beat him 4 times - Gold Coin
Golden Gale - Beat him 5 times - Gold Coin
Black Tornado - Beat him 6 times - Gold Coin [please verify, I made this up]
Hurricane - Beat him 6 times - Platinum Coin

After beating Rod enough, the music will change and he will show you his
stats. He'd be very hard to beat though.

D. The Town's Gate - Most of the time, this is where you have to leave
town.

## ---Transformation List--- ##
###############################

Rue is the character that can transform, and he can transform into
monsters. You can transform by getting monster coins, in which you can only
keep 4 at a time. The different monsters have different abilities (though
sometimes a few have the same) that Rue can use if he transforms.

I believe I've gotten them all and here they are:

## ---Cool Stuff--- ##
######################

After talking
After talking to people or talking to the Johnny Wolf (most obvious way to
see this), if you walk away, your head will still be turned towards their
direction, until you have walked far enough.

Outside the Carona Forest Atelier
Try running around the perimeter of the place and looking at your shadow.
The shadow depends on the lighting of the place. Pretty cool huh! (But it
would only be available at the first time you come there.)

Push the dog
At certain times, you can push Johnny Wolf. Take him anywhere.

Taking the dog for the walk
Sometimes, if you talk to Johnny Wolf, he will follow you.

Pushing pumpkins
At the Klaus House when the 'trap', the pumpkins fall onto Mint's head,
when they are on the ground, you can push them. Put them anywhere.

Get yourself cooked
After the first battle with Wylaf (both characters), Wylaf will tell you to
withdraw your weapon. The 'withdrawal' involves nothing, just stand there,
right? But something will happen if you disobey - that is you attack him
(you're still able right after he says 'withdraw'). First attack, he will say
something, attack again and prepare to be roasted (heh heh). He will flame
you, that is the flame will be aimed towards the screen and things will go
black. Your character is dead/cooked. Either use a coin or back to town. (you
have to fight Wylaf again either way).

Shake yo body!
During the Bond with Prima (for Rue) or Together with Prima (for Mint)
Chapter, Prima Doll is following you right, why don't you go to the
Grasslands and talk to Johnny Wolf and he will follow Prima Doll, then talk
to Rod, he will join the 'train' party. Now, Rue/Mint is followed by Prima
Doll, which is followed by Johnny Wolf, and Rod is behind Johnny Wolf. You
gotta see this, it looks silly, the four of them would be running around like
crazy at the Grasslands. (though I haven't seen it yet)

More shadows
In the final battle (against Valen combined with Dewprism), you can see
your shadow and his shadow.
