Credits The Beginning --------------------- You start in Elcid. Explore the town and talk to people, then try to leave and the old guy will tell you to meet him at the dungeon to the south. Head there and enter. You have to be a total moron not to be able to do this level. Just follow the old guy's instructions and learn Reset. One thing the game doesn't mention is that if an enemy runs into you from behind, the enemy gets free hits. If an enemy is chasing you, turn around and fight them. Then head back to town and talk to Tia. Head outside and a messenger will show up and tell you that monsters have appeared in the cave to Sundletan. Leave town and fight Red Jellies to get up to level 5 (you will already have gained some levels in the Secret Skills Cave). Then buy a Rapier and Small Shield in town, and the Strong spell if you have the money. Then go to the Cave to Sundletan. Pass through the first room and take the upper-right door. Go through the door on the right for a chest, then head out of that small room. Pick up one of the pots and put it on the lower-left square, past the first switch. Then carry the second pot past the switch and use the R button to turn around and put it on the switch. Put the other pot on the switch to the left to open the door. Go through and get the Life Potion. Go back to the main room with the river. Cut the bush to reveal a switch and step on it. Cut the bushes and walk through the third row to get to the chest with an Antidote. Head into the next room on the right and cut the bushes on the left to reveal a switch. Put a pot on it and go through the door. Push two blocks out of the way on any side, then push away the block blocking the staircase. Go down and get the Power Potion, then whack the switch with your sword to turn it blue. Jump down at one of the arrows and cross the new bridge to the stairs, but don't go down. Walk into the narrow area south of the stairs and head left to another set of stairs. Go down those for a Magic Jar and Hide Armor, then go back through the wall to the original set of stairs and descend. Heal up at the symbols and continue to the boss. Just hit the Lizard Man with weapons. If you get low, use an item or, preferably, the Strong spell. You get to go first, so you shouldn't have any problems. When you beat him, you'll get the Door Key. You will then meet Iris. Head up the stairs and go back to the river room (just ignore the room to the right. It contains a chest you can't get to yet). Go through the room in the upper-left and use the Door Key to open the door. Leave the cave. Head north-east to Sundletan and an earthquake will occur. Explore the town and buy the best equipment you can afford. Don't worry about buying spells, at this point, all you really need is Strong and perhaps Poison. You'll get your first items with IP powers here. Save your IP for tough fights. Outside, get up to level 8 or 9 if you're not already there, and then enter the Lake Cave on the small island to the north. Shoot the switch with an arrow to raise the water, then pick up the bridge segments and put them in the water. Go straight up and kill the three enemies. A segment of the wall will open. Shoot the enemies with arrows in the order you killed them in and the door to the right will open. To the south is HP and MP restoration, if you need it. Go down the stairs to the right and get the Insect Crush. It's weaker than the Dagger, but use it even if you have the Dagger. It's strong against insects and has the useful Bomb Attack IP. Return to the room with the blue carpet and take the left door. Go down the steps. There is a save spot in the left of the two doors in the small lowered area. Use the southern door to get to a Power Potion, then take the upper-right door to a room with two pillars. Move the pillars away to reveal two switches. Put the pillars on the top switches to open the right door. Go through and head to the upper-right. Walk left through the wall for a Miracle. If you want, go through the door and fight through the long row of enemies. Do this only if you're healthy. Use the Insect Crush's Bomb Attack if you need it. Your reward is the useful Speedy Ring. Go back to the pillar room and put the pillars on the left switches to open the bottom door. Go through and push the lower-right block to reveal a staircase. You have to reverse the arrow of blocks. Move the bottom block to the top and put in the middle. Push the end blocks on what's now the middle row down. Go through the door for the Lake Key. This would be a good time to head back to Sundletan to heal and save. In the blue carpet room, go left and stand on the lower-left crack. You will land on a switch. Use the left door to save your game if you want, then go through the door the switch opened. Use three bridge segments to make a path to the island, then carry the fourth across. Throw the bridge segment into the water directly to the right of the switch, then throw the switch. Go down the ladder, pick up the bridge, and use it to cross. Unlock the door and head up. The Catfish will appear and attack. The Big Catfish is the first real boss (the Lizard Man is just a regular enemy from later in the game). If you have any attack spells (highly unlikely), use them. Otherwise, just hit. Don't bother with the Bomb Attack as it is just a regular attack on all enemies. His Mega Quake does big damage, so be sure to stay healed up. When you beat him (it may take several tries), head back to Sundletan. In Sundletan, you'll find about the coronation in Alunze Kingdom. A guy near the entrance will tell you that somebody went to the Lake Cave to look for you. Go back to the room with the three enemies arrow room. You will encounter a Goblin and a Skeleton, followed by another Goblin. They're not that difficult. Then Tia will join your party. Back in Sundletan, buy Tia a Whip and get her up a level or two. Head to the north-west and pass through the shrine. Then go south around the mountains and enter the lone tree. Inside, you'll get your first Capsule Monster, Jelze the Foomy. From now on, instead of selling your old equipment, feed it to a capsule monster. You won't get as much money, but it's the best way to get your capsule monsters up. Then head north to Alunze and enter the town.
