    Monster Maker: Nanatsu no Hihou (translated "Monster Maker: The Seven
Sacred Treasures") is an RPG released only in Japan for the NES/Famicom. It's
an excellent, unique game that RPG fans will probably really enjoy. It has a
playing card theme to the graphics that gives it a unique look. Dungeons are
covered in playing cards. You flip over cards as you move through the dungeon
and see what's underneath.
    The game mechanics are unlike anything else I've played. The spell
system is unique, there is a monster summoning system, a lot of playable
characters, and a good challenge level. Give it a try and hopefully you'll
like it as much as I do.
    The goal of this faq is to guide you to the end of the game even if you
don't know Japanese. I uploaded maps to gamefaqs.com as separate files, and I
will be assuming that you're using these when I'm giving directions, although
I commend you if you map the game yourself.

The story of this game is as follows: The world was protected by seven gods,
who protected the eight races. The god of humans, Zool, has become corrupted
by desire for more power.

At the game start, we see Zool in his throne room, inside a volcano on the
island of Bulgandy. He tells his five greatest servants to go get the sacred
treasures held by the other six gods so that he can achieve ultimate power.
He then tells the black knight Nefelda to kill the Child of Light who is
destined to become his greatest enemy.

The scene changes to the witch, Lufia (ルフィーア), talking to her teacher,
the prophet Tarieshin (タリエシン). Tarieshin senses that Zool and his dark
army are on the move. He asks Lufia to find and protect the Child of Light,
saying to visit Bengu Castle for a clue. The Child of Light is able to
control monsters.

---World Map-------------------------------------------------------[sec2a]---
The world map consists of a series of paths and locations (depicted as
cards). You cannot deviate from the paths. If a card is face down, face it
and press "A" to flip it over, revealing the location and allowing you to
enter. After clearing the location, the card will remain face up. At that
time, you will be able to walk over the card without having to enter the
location, allowing you to pass by.

---Day and Night Conversion----------------------------------------[sec2b]---
As you walk around the world map, day will change to night and back again. At
night, the aspects of the towns will change. Townsperson dialogue will be
different and the stores will be closed. The inn where you recruit party
members will be filled with the shopkeepers and the recruitable characters
won't be there.

In some cities this is different. For example, in the goblin city, all of the
shops are only open during the nighttime.

---Towns-----------------------------------------------------------[sec2c]---
Towns are places where you can rest, buy equipment, and gather information.
Here are the shops that can be found in most towns:

Inn (Type 1) - Red sign outside. Pay to have a meal, partially restoring your
HP/MP, and then talk to other customers. You can often recruit party members
here.
    Shop menu:
    たのむ - "Request". Pay to eat, restoring some HP/MP, then get the
         following submenu:
         はなす - "Talk". Talk to customers. Also can talk to the owner
              (マスター) and the waitress (ウエイトレス).
         わかれる - "Separate". Remove members from your party.
    やめる - "Quit".

Inn (Type 2) - Blue sign outside. Fully restore your HP/MP.

Weapon Shop (ぶきや) - Yellow sword sign outside. Buy and sell weapons here.
    Shop menu options: かう ("Buy"), うる ("Sell").

Armor Shop (ぼうぐや) - Yellow shield sign outside. Buy and sell protective
equipment here.
    Shop menu options: かう ("Buy"), うる ("Sell").

Item Shop (どうぐや) - Blue medicine bottle sign outside. Buy useable items
here. You can sell anything to these shops.
    Shop menu options: かう ("Buy"), うる ("Sell").

Magic Equipment Shop (まどうきや) - Yellow magic circle sign outside. Buy and
sell weapons and armor for magicians.
    Shop menu options: かう ("Buy"), うる ("Sell").

Magic Guild (まほうギルド) - Red magic circle sign outside. Here, you can
obtain magic cards that allow you to cast a spell one time per purchase. The
cards are free, but they cost MP to purchase and you have to have a high
enough level to purchase each one. See the "Magic" section of this guide for
more details.
    The store menu commands are:
    ふうじる - "Seal". Purchase spell cards, sealing your MP inside.
    もどす - "Return". Return cards, releasing your MP.

Time Keeper (ときのみはり) - Yellow hourglass sign outside. Save your game at
this location.
    Shop menu options:
    はい ("Yes") - Save your game. You have two save slots to choose from.
    いいえ ("No") - Don't save.

Priest (じいん) - Looks like a big temple. Revive dead party members or cure
status ailments. You are automatically taken to the priest if you enter town
with any status ailments or dead allies. Afflicted party members are removed
from your party until you pay the fee for their cure.

---Weapons, Armor, and Items---------------------------------------[sec2d]---
Each character can equip a weapon, armor, a helmet, a shield, and a ring.
Magicians have special weapons, purchased at the magic equipment shop. When
they attack, a spell is cast which costs no MP. Each magician has a different
type of magic that is cast when they attack with their weapon called their
"personal magic" (じこまほう). For example, Lufia attacks with flame-based
spells.

Each weapon increases a character's attack strength and accuracy. Armor,
shields, and helmets increase defense and evasion. Rings increase a
character's magic strength.

Each character can hold up to 12 items (including equipped items) at one
time.

---Cursed Equipment------------------------------------------------[sec2e]---
Occasionally, you will find a cursed item. Cursed items have different
effects depending on which item it is. You might find the curse effect is
worth the large stat boost these items often give. In fact, since the curse
effect generally only causes damage as you walk, you could keep a cursed item
unequipped in your inventory, then equip it just before a big fight to get an
extra boost of power for that battle.

Once a cursed item is equipped, you cannot remove it like normal. To remove
cursed items, sell them at a shop.

---Magic-----------------------------------------------------------[sec2f]---
Magicians can learn a few spells over the course of the game when they level
up. You can cast those spells using MP like in any RPG. However, it is much
more common to cast spells using magic cards, purchased at the magic guild.

Magic cards are free, but you can only get one if you have a high enough
level. The level needed to get the card is shown next to it, under the
レベル ("Level") column. You then must spend MP to get the card. The MP cost
is shown under the "MP" column. Your MP is sealed into the card. You cannot
get this MP back by resting or any other means as long as you still have the
card. Each character can hold up to 12 cards at one time.

---Exploring Dungeons----------------------------------------------[sec2g]---
The dungeon maps are covered with face down cards. Face one and press "A" to
flip it and reveal anything underneath. You might find a treasure, a trap, or
several other things. When you clear a dungeon by accomplishing a specific
objective, all of the cards in the dungeon will be flipped over and you can
walk through it easier. Any locked doors will be permanently unlocked as
well. Below, I list the common objects that can be found in the dungeons.

Medicine Jar (くすりびん) - Drinking these can have positive effects, such as
HP or MP recovery, but also can be negative, such as inflicting status
ailments. I recommend avoiding drinking from these unless you're desparate.

Trap - The graphic shown is the symbols "!?" when you hit a trap. The effect
of a trap can be damage and/or inflict poison or paralysis. Traps are often
triggered by trying to open treasure chests.

Treasure Chest (たからばこ) - Although often booby trapped, treasure chests
often contain useful or even required items. Sometimes they contain a
monster-in-a-box that will attack you, and you will usually get an item after
winning those battles.

Stone Statue (せきぞう) - Search stone statues to witness various effects,
such as getting an Ancient Statue item, getting money, engaging in battle
with a Gargoyle, or having your HP halved. In general, I recommend not
interacting with these since the risk isn't worth the potential rewards.

Stone Monument (せきひ) - Searching these will often result in you learning
some info. However, bad things can happen, such as getting turned to stone or
into a goblin, or having all the cards on the current screen flipped back to
face down.

Fear Tile (きょうふ) - These squares are too scary for your party to pass
unless you are at a high enough level.

Mirror Room (かがみのま) - If you look into the mirror, you might turn into a
goblin or you might warp to a different part of the dungeon. Sometimes you
will be attacked by dopplegangers of the character who looked into the
mirror. But, when you win those battles, a secret passage will appear.

Cords (つりひも) - Pulling a cord will either spring a trap, cause a chute to
open, or open a secret passageway. Cords often appear in pairs, and pulling
the left (ひだり) cord will have a different effect than pulling the right
(みぎ) cord.

Chute (シュータ) - This causes you to fall down one floor.

Monster Tamer (まものつかい) - An old man that will sell you summon monsters
and heal or revive your summon monsters. You can also trade summon monsters
with him.

Spring (いずみ) - Springs can have various effects, such as restoring your
HP, inflicting poison or paralysis, or no effect at all. Springs do not have
a random effect, so remember where the HP restoring ones are so you can use
them when needed. You can smell the water first by selecting におい
("Scent"), but your characters' responses are little indication of the
spring's effect. Select のむ ("Drink") to drink.

Evil God Statue (じゃしんぞう) - Evil god statues can have various effects
which are often random. When you find one, you can first search it. Searching
sometimes leads to you finding money or you might be attacked by the statue.
If you find nothing, you are then asked if you want to pray to it. If you
pray, the evil god statue's eyes will open and he will ask you for a tribute
of some amount of money. Say yes and various effects will happen. You might
have your HP or MP restored or you might be warped to another part of the
dungeon or even to the world map. Statues that warp you are not random and
will always do the same thing.

Elevator (エレベータ) - Elevators move you up and down floors in a dungeon.
The options are: のぼる ("Go up"), おりる ("Go down"), and やめる ("Quit").

Locked Doors - Locked doors can be opened with keys found in the dungeon. The
name of the door and key required is always the same. For example, the Copper
Door (どうのとびら) is opened using the Copper Key (どうのかぎ). If you load
a saved game, any doors you opened in a dungeon will be locked again and
you'll have to re-find the corresponding key. If you clear a dungeon, all
doors will be permanently opened.

Beggar (ものごい) - Pay a beggar money and it will give you clues about the
current dungeon.

---Summon Monsters-------------------------------------------------[sec2h]---
Early in the game, the "Child of Light" (as your main character is called)
will gain the ability to summon monsters. Summon monsters are purchased from
the Monster Tamer, found only inside certain dungeons. Only your main
character can use the summon monsters.

Summon monsters are kept as items in your inventory. Use one as an item
during battle to summon the monster. You can only summon monsters that have
non-zero HP or have no major status ailments such as paralysis. You can
revive dead summon monsters or heal their status ailments by visiting the
Monster Tamer. He can also restore HP to them.

Summon monsters go away at the end of each battle, so you have to re-summon
them for each battle. You can summon as many monsters as you want to fill up
the six party member maximum. You can only hold five regular party members
in your party, so there is always one open slot for a summon monster.

Summon monsters use the same attacks as the wild version of that monster.
You cannot control the actions of the summon monster, it is computer
controlled. They are able to attack from the back row.

You can hold a maximum of four summon monsters in your main character's
inventory at one time.

---Summon Monster Exchange-----------------------------------------[sec2i]---
At the Monster Tamer, you can trade two of your summon monsters for one new
one. The monster you receive will depend on which two summon monsters you
chose to trade. You cannot make all of the trades at some of the Monster
Tamers. I guess this is a way to prevent you from getting too powerful summon
monsters early in the game. So, go to the Monster Tamers at later dungeons to
make more powerful trades. The Monster Tamer in the dungeon of Bulgandy
Island (ブルガンディとう) will make all of the possible trades with you. See
the "Summon Monster Exchange List" section near the end of this guide for the
list of which monsters can be traded for which.

---Battles---------------------------------------------------------[sec2j]---
Battles in this game are mostly the same as in all turn-based RPGs. However,
there are some differences that will be discussed in this section.

(1) Your characters will re-target to a different enemy if the enemy they
were about to attack dies before your character's turn to attack.

(2) You can run from battle even if all of your party members are asleep or
afflicted with any other status ailment.

(3) If you fail to escape from battle, the enemies might get a free turn to
attack, but not necessarily. It's random.

(4) When you defend during battle, you select a party member who you want to
defend. It is often good to have a character in the back row defend a
character in the front row since characters in the back row cannot be
attacked by a regular physical attack.

(5) You can talk to enemies during battle and attempt to convince them to
leave the battle. See the "Battle Menu" section for more info on the talk
commands.

(6) There is a 99 HP maximum damage per attack that both your characters and
the enemies can do. It's annoying because enemies with 100 HP will take
attacks to kill no matter how much stronger you are. But it does make it so
the enemies can't just kill your weaker characters in one hit.

---Status Ailments-------------------------------------------------[sec2k]---
There are several status ailments in this game, and you are likely to see all
of these many times:

ねむり - "Sleep". Take no action for a few turns.
めくらまし - "Blind". Take no action for a few turns.
かなしばり - "Bind". Take no action for a few turns.
こおりつき - "Frozen". Take no action for a few turns.
しびれ - "Numb". Take no action for a few turns.
いし - "Stone". Character cannot act. Does not go away after battle.
まひ - "Paralyzed". Character takes no actions and is damage as he/she walks.
    Doesn't go away after battle.
どく - "Poison". Damage as you walk. Does not go away after battle.
ゴブリン - "Goblin". All your stats are decreased. Does not go away after
    battle.
こんらん - "Confused". Character attacks random character, foe or ally.
とりこ - "Confused". Character attacks a random ally.
まふうじ - "Magic Seal". Cannot cast spells. Also cannot attack with spell-
    based weapons. Goes away at the end of battle, but persists the entire
    battle.

---Death in the Party----------------------------------------------[sec2l]---
To revive a member of your party, return to any town. You will automatically
be taken to the priest and the dead character will be kept at the church
until you pay the fee to have him/her revived. There is also a spell and an
item that will revive dead characters, but these don't appear until later in
the game.

If your entire party is wiped out, you get a game over, returning to the
title screen. You then have to continue from your last save point.

---Leveling Up-----------------------------------------------------[sec2m]---
There are no experience points in this game. To level up, you must complete
certain objectives, like defeating a boss or clearing a dungeon. This means
that you can't just level build to get stronger.

It makes the game challenging in that you are never a lot stronger than the
enemies. But it also makes it so you have to think and use strategy to defeat
your opponents. I like this leveling system since I hate level building in
RPGs.

---Recruiting Party Members----------------------------------------[sec2n]---
You can recruit party members at the inn in town with the red sign out front.
There are other party members you can get in other special locations too.
Many dungeons require you to have a specific character in your party for you
to enter them or complete a certain task. These characters are of course
explained in the walkthrough section of this guide.

Here are all the playable characters, roughly in order of when you're able to
recruit them. Character classes such as warriors and dwarfs can equip most
weapons and armor. Thieves and Shazu can equip less weapons and armor, but
they are able to detect traps. Elves are good at using bows, so they can
attack from the back row. Magicians use magic based attacks when you attack
with their normal weapons, and the type of magic that's used is listed next

You begin on the world map outside the Tower of Prophecy, which Lufia (the
witch dressed in red) has just exited on her journey to find the Child of
Light. Go East until you see a castle icon a few steps to the South. Stand on
it and press "A". The guard allows you to enter Bengu (ベング) Castle.

---Bengu Castle----------------------------------------------------[sec5a]---
The guard to Bengu Castle tells you that the castle is experiencing a crisis.

See the "Towns" section of this guide for an explanation of the shops, inns,
etc. in town. You'll also notice a sword stuck in a pedastal, called the Ur
Sword, that only the Child of Light can remove it is said.

Enter the castle and talk to the chancellor at the top of the screen. He says
the princess is missing. The king is ill, so she went to look for Green Seeds
that have healing properties. He says he'll give you 500 Dalt if you bring
her back. Say yes (はい) to agree.

A woman in town tells you that Green Seeds only grow in Danshinein Forest.
Exit town to the world map, then head all the way East and search the card to
flip it over and enter Danshinein Forest (ダンシネインのもり).

---Danshinein Forest-----------------------------------------------[sec5b]---
On this first screen of the forest, you can find four different allies to
recruit. You can only recruit two, but you can recruit none if you like. For
each ally you recruit, you will have to pay them a portion of the 500 Dalt
reward for rescuing the princess. I recommend hiring one ally: Tamuron
(タムローン), who is by far the strongest character of the four. It will
only be a temporary hire.

You need to make your way to the exit to the next screen, near the top-right
part of the screen. Along the way is a pretty difficult non-random encounter
with two enemies called Worms (ワーム), but if you have Tamuron in your
party, the battle will be pretty easy. The Worms will probably just run away
after a few turns anyway.

On the next screen, you can visit the "Monster Tamer's" house, but he is not
there at the moment. There is a healing spring that will restore your HP, a
treasure chest (probably trapped) containing a random item, and a stone
statue that has random effects if searched. There is also a Green Seed
(グリンのみ). Make your way once again to the exit to the next screen,
located at the top of this screen.

The third screen is larger than the previous two, but you can't explore the
whole area since there is a tile that is "too scary" for your party to
venture past at this time. You have to gain some levels to overcome your
fear, so you will have to return later to explore that path.

There is another Green Seed on this screen you can get, but more importantly
you will find Princess Medea (メディア). Note, you can only find the princess
if Lufia is still alive, so return to town to revive her if need be. Lufia
chastises her for coming to such a dangerous place alone. The princess says
she didn't come alone, and Lufia gasps when she realizes what she is looking
at. She asks if you are the boy. Say "yes" to confirm you are male, or "no"
to say you are female. Then you're asked to enter your name. You see the
Japanese alphabet and the command おわり ("End"). After entering a name, you
have the options: けってい ("Decide") and やりなおし ("Redo"). The Child of
Light and Princess Medea join your party.

You will meet the Monster Tamer (まものつかい) on your way out of the forest.
He gives you the Cave Bear (ケイブベア) item that can be used to summon a
Cave Bear. It is in the Child of Light's inventory (only he/she can summon
monsters). Use the Cave Bear in some battles to see how the summoning works.
You can buy more summons from the Monster Tamer. I like the Gnome (ノーム)
since it casts Vital All, which heals your whole party. See the "Menus"
section of this guide for menu commands at the Monster Tamer, and see the
"Shops" section for a list of what each Monster Tamer sells.

---Bengu Castle Revisited------------------------------------------[sec5c]---
Return to Bengu Castle after retrieving Princess Medea. Before entering the
castle, you can strip the temporary characters you hired of their items, and
you can transfer some Green Seeds from Princess Medea's inventory to Lufia's
or the Child of Light's. Then, enter the castle. You deliver Princess Medea
back to the king, so she's no longer in your party. You get the 500 Dalt
reward and your party levels up. As you exit the castle, the characters you
hired will leave your party, taking a portion of your 500 Dalt reward with
them.

I'm not sure if you can do this at this point in the game, but you can enter
the inn with the red sign out front and pay to have a meal, then talk to
customers inside. You can hire some of the customers. In this case, you will
find three of the characters that you could have hired in Danshinein Forest:
Rakuna, Golbowa, and Hattatasu. If you can't do this yet, come back later to
hire one or all of them if you like. You can kick them out of your party and
get better characters later too.

Now would be a good time to buy some equipment, such as a Sword for the Child
of Light, and some defensive items like the Leather Helm and Leather Shield.
Since Lufia has achieved her mission of finding the Child of Light, it's time
to return to the Tower of Prophecy and talk to her teacher.

Exit to the world map and head to the far West end of the road, and search
the card there to enter the Tower of Prophecy (よげんのとう).

---Tower of Prophecy-----------------------------------------------[sec5d]---
Battles are a bit hard if you have just Lufia and the Child of Light unless
you make good use of your Cave Bear summon card. Use it at the beginning of
every battle and the bear will be a great help. On the first screen, you can
find a treasure chest that contains a Copper Key (どうのかぎ). This is needed
to open the Copper Door (どうのとびら) on another floor. By the way, the
enemies here are supposedly good creatures of the tower and dummies that are
testing your abilities as you climb the tower.

There are a couple new dungeon elements that you will come across. First of
all is the chutes. They drop you down one floor, which is sometimes good for
reaching new areas, but it's also just annoying most of the time. There are
also medicine jars that you can drink which have random effects. I recommend
avoiding them since the risks are too large compared to any possible gains.
You can smell them, and your characters will tell you how they think it
smells, although this seems to be little indication of what will happen if
you drink it. If you drink it, you might turn into a goblin, there could be
no effect, you could have your HP or MP restored, or other things.

On the third floor, use the Copper Key to open and get past the Copper Door.

In the upper-right corner of the fourth floor, you find Buran (ブラン) and
Tarieshin (タリエシン), who congratulates you for making it back with the
Child of Light. Your party levels up.

Tarieshin goes on to tell you that there are seven gods/goddesses in the
world who carry sacred gems. They have protected the 8 races of this world.
There came a time when one of the gods, Zool (ゾール), out of a dark
ambition, turned into a god of darkness. The Child of Light and Lufia are
the ones who must prevent him and his dark army from obtaining the seven
sacred treasures. Also, you need to seek the female soldier named Diane
(ディアーネ) and get her to join your party. Collect the seven sacred
treasures and crush Zool's ambitions!

---Zool Temple-----------------------------------------------------[sec5e]---
Your next stop will be the Zool Temple (ゾールしんでん). It is just North of
Bengu Castle. The region you can explore is small at this time. Find the Zool
Priest on the second screen and he will tell you to return when you have six
of the sacred treasures. At that time, he will give you the seventh and final
gem. As if this wasn't the most obvious, suspicious guy ever, right? At this
point, your party will level up and you will have completed this stage.

When you exit to the world map, you will be able to pass the Zool Temple.
Further North, you can enter the city of Elsem (エルセム).

---Elsem-----------------------------------------------------------[sec5f]---
In Elsem, a kind townsperson will tell you about the gods/goddesses and the
sacred treasures that they possess. Here's the list:
Human god Zool (ゾール) - Diamond
Orc god Baran (バラン) - Ruby
Dwarf god Hefs (ヘフス) - Opal
Elf god Yurin (ユリン) - Emerald
Shazu god Setet (セテト) - Cat's Eye
Goblin god Meira (メーラ) - Black Pearl
Gnome and Kobold god Iris (イリス) - Sapphire

Finding these is your main goal. Another townsperson tells you that the
Emerald is in the Elf Forest.

In the Northeast corner of town, you can find a water gate which is currently
locked.

In the inn here, you can hire some new party members: Roliein (ロリエーン)
and Gala (ガーラ). Roliein is an elf, who you will need to have in your party
in order to enter the Elf Village (although this isn't the time to do that,
so you can hire her later). She attacks with a bow, so she can be placed in
the back row of your party and still attack. Gala is a magician who can
paralyze enemies with her regular attack and also can be placed in the back
row. I find Gala a bit more useful, but neither is great, and as I said, you
need Roliein to enter the Elf Village.

Also in the inn, you can talk to the Holy Knight Mart (せいきしマルト). He
asks you to take a baby (which you get as an item called the Infant -
おさなご) to Danshinein Forest and give it to Gandalf (ガンダウルフ). He also
gives you a pendant that is the same as the Child of Light's and some money
for your trouble.

So let's take that baby to Gandalf.

---Danshinein Forest Revisited-------------------------------------[sec5g]---
Head back to the third screen of the forest. With your levels raised, you
should be able to cross the "fear tile" now. From there, make your way to the
top of the screen to find the door to the fourth screen.

On the fourth screen, head to the Northwest corner. You will find a stone
monument there. When you search it, you will be warped to a different area of
this screen. From there, explore a little farther to find Gandalf. He
recognizes it as Mart and Sophia's child and takes it for safe keeping. Your
party levels up and this mission is complete.

---Water Gate------------------------------------------------------[sec5h]---
Return to Elsem. Enter the house to the left of the armor shop, Neius's
(ネイウス) house. He says that there was a loud sound and the house in the
Southwest corner of town sunk into the ground. He asks you to seek the cause.
Say yes and get the Water Key (みずのかぎ).

Use the key at the gate in the Northeast corner of town to enter the Water
Gate (みずのもん).

This dungeon is pretty small. Go down one floor, then make your way to the
Northern end of the dungeon. There is a Monster Tamer here, by the way, but
your goal is to find the Big Rats (おおねずみ). This is basically a boss
battle. You can use the Hell Flame (ヘルフレイム) spell to deal big damage
and make this easy. After winning, exit via the nearby stairs to the left to
get back to town.

Go back to the guy who gave you the Water Key. He'll say that the Big Rats
were the cause of the sinking house and reward you with 500 dalt for taking
care of them. Your party also levels up. He then says way that the Orc army
has invaded Keful (ケフル) Castle. He doesn't know if the royal family is ok,
but asks if you will sneak in and save them. Say yes to agree, of course.

At this point, you should be at a high enough level to cross the "fear tile"
on the second floor of the Tower of Prophecy, where you'll find the excellent
Aura Robe.

---Elf Forest------------------------------------------------------[sec5i]---
The next location to visit is the Elf Forest (エルフのもり), located North of
the Tower of Prophecy. If you plan on visiting the Elf Village here, you will
need to recruit Roliein from the Elsem inn. You have two choices: to visit
the elves and try to get the Emerald, or to pass through the Elf Forest and
continue on to Claf Cave to try and get the Sapphire from the kobolds and
gnomes.

On the first screen of the Elf Forest, you will have to battle five Kashis
(カーシー). They're annoying because they use an ability that can stun all of
your party members. If this happens, you can still run away, and then
initiate the battle again and hope for better luck. Casting Hell Flame is
pretty necessary to take them out.

If you just go through the door at the top of the screen, you won't get far
since it leads to a dead end. Instead, go to the "evil god statue" on the
first screen. Say "yes" to search it, and you will find nothing. Then say
"yes" to pray to it, and it will open its eyes and request money (250 Dalt)
for you to borrow its power. Say yes and you will be warped to a section far
into the second screen of the forest. This sequence of events to get warped
by an evil god statue is very common in this game.

From the second screen, make your way North to the next screen. On the third
screen, you can find the entrance to the Elf Village (Called Esaranbal -
エサランバル) located behind an Ogre (オーガ) encounter.

In the Elf village, there is a house in the Southeast corner of the village,
with a barred door. You can hear the voice of a dwarf calling for you to get
him out of there. Elsais (エルサイス), the elf leader in the Northeast house
says that only he can get the dwarf out, and he only will if you agree to
take the dwarf with you. You will have to have an opening in your party to do
so, so return at a later time for him.

Exit the Elf Village via the Southeast corner to enter a new part of the Elf
Forest. Make your way to a boss enounter: Forun (フォルン). He seems strong
versus magic damage, so cast Power to increase your physical attack power and
Guard to raise your party's defense. Come with lots of Vital All spell cards
to help you keep your HP up. His two arms have 500 HP each and his head has
900 HP. You have to kill all three parts to win. If you have the Sapphire
already from skipping ahead, it can help a lot since it will damage all three
of his parts and inflict frozen status on them. His head doesn't attack, but
it casts Power and Sleeper. I suggest focusing on his arms first, one at a
time. If you kill both, he can no longer attack. When you win, you get the
Emerald (エメラルド). Your party levels up as well.

The Emerald, like all the sacred treasures, is entered as a spell for the
Child of Light. It takes no MP to cast, but he can only cast it once after
each time you rest at an inn. The Emerald casts a thunder-type spell that
damages and stuns enemies.

If you killed Forun, as you make your way out of the forest you will
encounter a soldier named Zakkarif (ザッカリフ) and four Kashi. He tells you
to give him the Emerald. Say "no" obviously and you will engage in another
boss battle. Zakkarif has 160 HP and if you managed to beat Forun, then this
battle will be easy for you. Cast Hell Flame and Emerald to dispose of them
quickly. Maybe cast Power and Guard as well. When you win, he runs away.

Next, you want to make room for the dwarf imprisoned in the Elf Village. So
fire someone from your group if you need to (this is done at an inn) and
return to the elf village (you will still need Roliein to get into the Elf
Village). Go to the barred door to get the dwarf Nimrem (ニムレム) in your
party. Then, you can finally get rid of Roliein if you like someone else
better since you're done with the Elf Village.

---Claf Cave-------------------------------------------------------[sec5j]---
Next, let's head to Claf Cave (クルアフのどうくつ), located North of the Elf
Forest, to get the Sapphire.

On the first screen, go through the door in the upper-right corner of the
screen. Then fall down a couple chutes and find the stairs leading to the
Kobold Village.

In the Kobold Village, talk to the king in the big house at the bottom of the
screen who says that the sacred treasure of Iris, the Sapphire, was stolen by
the gnomes. He asks if you will get it back from them. Say "yes" and he gives
you the Zaag Key (ザーグのかぎ).

Back in the cave, use the key on the nearby Zaag Door and use the nearby
elevator to get back to the top floor. Go to the upper-left part of the
screen to find the entrance to the Gnome Village.

In the Gnome Village, talk to the gnome king in the big house at the bottom
of the screen. He says that the gnomes and kobolds take turns keeping the
Sapphire for one year. He asks if you came to get the Sapphire. Say yes and
he gives you the Goddess Key (めがみのかぎ).

Use the elevator to get back to the bottom floor, then use the key to get
past the Goddess Door. Continue to the next screen where you'll find Rejik
(レジーク) being attacked by some Orc Guards. Win the battle to get the
Sapphire (サファイア), which Rejik was trying to steal. When the Child of
Light uses the Sapphire spell, it damages and inflicts frozen status on all
enemies. Your party levels up and this mission is complete.

If you return to the gnome king, he tells you to use the Sapphire to battle
Zool. If you return to the kobold king, he'll be angry that you have the
Sapphire and attack you with some Lizard Men to get it back, so avoid him.

On a side note, you can battle a Magman (マグマン) on floor B2. Behind him,
you can find the Flame Bow (フレイムボウ). However, the Magman is so hard
it's not really worth the effort for this particular item.

---Galtei Cave-----------------------------------------------------[sec5k]---
With Nimrem in your party, head to Galtei Cave (ガルテーのどうくつ), located
North of Danshinein Forest, to visit the dwarves and try to get the Opal.

On the first screen, fight some Spew Slimes (ゲロスライム) in the upper-left
corner of the screen. They inflict paralysis often, so come with Deparalyze
(デパラライズ) spell cards. After winning, follow the path to get the Copper
Key (どうのかぎ). Go to the upper-right part of the screen to find the door
up to the next screen. From there, get past the Copper Door and find the pair
of stairs next to each other. Go down the stairs on the left.

On the next floor, go to the lower-right corner to find some stairs up. On
the next screen, go all the way up, then all the way right to find the
entrance to the Dwarf Village. They will let you enter if Nimrem is in your
party. Strip Nimrem of his good items since he's about to leave you.

In the Dwarf Village, enter the house at the top of the screen. Talk to the
elder who gives you the Opal (オパール). Then your party levels up and Nimrem
leaves your party. This completes the mission, so exit to the world map.
There is a Monster Tamer in Galtei Cave, by the way. The Opal spell will
restore all of your non-dead party members to full HP.

---Kazusu----------------------------------------------------------[sec5l]---
Enter the Shazu (cat people) Village of Kazusu (カズス), located North of
Galtei Cave.

You can hire some new characters at the inn here:
Sarah (サーラ) - An elf that isn't particularly great.
Shawna (シャーナ) - A Shazu. She can detect traps in the dungeons which helps
    you avoid springing them sometimes, so she's a pretty helpful character.
Diane (ディアーネ) - The daughter of King Ashadi (アシャディ) of Keful. This
    is the warrior woman that Lufia's teacher told her to seek, so you want
    to hire her for sure. Once in your party, you can't get rid of her.

Enter the temple in the upper-right corner of town. You ask the priest for
the Cat's Eye, but he says he requires proof that you are the soldiers of
light. He wants you to bring him the crystal ball belonging to Lufia's
teacher to prove you are who you say you are. This requires returning to the
Tower of Prophecy.

But first, the game might consider Diane to be under-leveled for how far you
are in the game. If you visit the "Angel of Ulm", she is likely to gain some
levels. The Angel of Ulm is found in several locations. The easiest to find
is in the Elf Forest. After using the evil god statue to warp, make your way
to the lower-right part of the screen to find him. As far as I can tell,
Diane is the only character who can get level ups in this way, and it is a
one-time thing.

---Tower of Prophecy Revisited-------------------------------------[sec5m]---
The tower layout is the same, but there are stronger enemies. At the top, you
see Lufia's teacher who asks for the sacred treasures. Say yes and you find
it was a trap, losing all of your sacred treasures (although you can get them
back later), so say "no". It was actually Dioseril (ディオセリル). She says
she killed the teacher. Lufia says to leave the battle to her and levels up
in anger before the fight. You fight a one on one battle. Dioseril has 150 HP
and casts Flame and Hell Flame. It's not too hard, but you might need to cast
a healing spell once or twice. Simply attacking works fine. After winning,
Dioseril turns into a Siren and flies away. You were unable to find the
crystal ball you came for, so Dioseril must have it.

---Keful Castle----------------------------------------------------[sec5n]---
Enter Keful (ケフル) Castle West of Elsem. The orc guard is actually your bat
friend Buran now in disguise, who will let you enter. If you talk to the orcs
in town, they will attack you. Just make your way to the castle to enter a
dungeon area.

In the castle, go to some cords in the lower-left section of the first floor.
Pull the left (ひだり) cord to find a hidden door. Enter it to go down one
space, where you'll find the Copper Key (どうのかぎ). Toward the middle of
the first floor is the Copper Door which you can now pass. From there, go
down a little bit to find some stairs leading down. After going down the
stairs, go right to fall down a chute. On this floor (B2), go clockwise
around the room (ignoring the stairs) to find a chest containing the Iron
Key (てつのかぎ).

Use stairs to get back to the first floor. Then go back down the stairs that
were behind the Copper Door. This time, go left to unlock the Iron Door, then
just follow the path to find the chest containing the Lead Key
(なまりのかぎ). Return to the first floor, then go toward the right side of
the screen to find the Lead Door which you can now open. You can go up the
stairs behind the door and make your way to the top floor to find the sword
called Barracuda.

Back on the first floor, take the stairs down that were behind the Lead Door.
Go straight up to the upper-right of the next room to find some stairs
leading down. On the next floor, follow the path to meet Zakkarif
(ザッカリフ) again, the guy you met in the Elf Forest after defeating Forun.
He has 350 HP and is pretty easy to defeat. Cast Power if you need some help.
Keep your HP up, because when you defeat him, his body explodes, damaging
your party.

After the battle, go left to get the Jail Key (ろうやのかぎ), then go down
and left to get the Steel Key (はがねのかぎ). Go to the lower-right corner of
this room to use the Jail Key to free Diane's father, King Ashadi
(アシャディ).

Make your way back to the first floor, then go up some stairs in the upper-
left section of the floor. On the second floor, get the Darkness Key
(やみのかぎ) in the upper-left corner of the screen. Continue up to the top
floor and use the Darkness Key to open the Darkness Door. Before proceeding
further, strip Diane of her equipment and items. Then take a step down to be
confronted with two Dianes! One of them is a fake. It asks you to choose
which one you think is the true Diane. It doesn't matter which one you pick.
You are already in Delaunay's trap. You are attacked by some Orc Knights,
which is a pretty tough fight. When you defeat them, you will then be
attacked by Delaunay (ドローネ). She is weak versus magic attacks, so use
whatever attack spells you have at your disposal to sap her 220 HP. When you
win, she jumps out the window and escapes. The true Diane is now rescued and
it turns out the one following you all along was a fake and actually
Delaunay, so the items she had are gone. Diane wants you to meet her father
the king, so go back into the castle and you appear in the throne room. He
thanks you and Diane asks to be allowed to go with you on your journey. He
grants her permission, then your party levels up.

The shops and stuff will now be open in town. There are some new characters
you can hire at the inn:
Elsais (エルサイス) - The elf leader.
Link (リンク) - An ice-magic based magician. One of my favorite characters.
Salieri (サリエリ) - A priest that is supposedly good at healing-type magic.
Rejik (レジーク) - A thief that you've met previously (he was trying to steal
    the Sapphire from the gnomes).

The next mission requires you to have Rejik in your party, so make room for
him and take him with you.

---Burugna--------------------------------------------------------[sec5o]---
Go to Burugna (ブルグナ), North of Keful, with Rejik in your party. There
are orc guards that won't let you enter, but Rejik knows a secret passage, so
you are able to enter the castle.

In the castle, make your way toward the left-middle part of the first floor
to find a chute that will drop you to the basement. There, you can find the
Copper Key (どうのかぎ). Then, use the evil god statue to warp outside. Go
back in the castle and go through the Copper Door on the left. Go clockwise
around the perimeter of the floor to reach some stairs going up on the right
side of the screen. On the second floor, go straight up to fall down a chute.
Go down from there to find the Iron Key (てつのかぎ).

Go up the stairs at the top-middle part of the first floor. On the second
floor, get to the upper-left part of the screen by passing through the Iron
Door. Use the mirror room furthest to the right in this portion of the screen
to warp to a new area of the first floor. Follow the path to find stairs up
to the second floor. Go left to find stairs leading down to the first floor.
Then, go down the nearby stairs to reach the basement. In the basement, go up
to the top of the screen to meet Vindlas (ヴィンドラス). He completely heals
your party, including any dead members, before initiating a battle. He has
400 HP and is strong versus magic, so cast Power and use primarily physical
attacks. After winning, go left where you'll find several treasures. The most
important is the Ur Helm (ウルのかぶと), but you can also get the Earth Axe
(アースアクス). The Ur Helm, like all the Ur equipment, is only equippable by
the Child of Light.

Go back to the stairs leading up in the upper-right corner of the first
floor, and this time go down to the lower-right corner of the second floor
screen to find some cords. Pull the left (ひだり) cord to make a hidden
passage appear leading left. Go through it, then prepare for a nasty battle
versus two Magman (マグマン). They are weak against ice magic obviously, so
use the Sapphire to damage and freeze them, then you can probably manage to
take them out pretty easily.

Past the Magman encounter you will find the Lead Key (なまりのかぎ). If you
go up the stairs here, it will lead you to the Ice Staff, although you have
to beat some Adepts to reach it, who can be pretty hard.

Still on the second floor, go to the right through a one-way passage and you
will be near the Lead Door, which you can now pass. Go up the stairs past the
door to be on the third floor where you'll find the Steel Key (はがねのかぎ).

Get to the top part of the second floor, which can be reached using the
stairs at the top-middle of the screen on the first floor. To the right is
the Steel Door, which you can now pass. Go up past the door to find stairs
leading to the third floor. Follow the path to the fourth floor where you
will find the boss, Dioseril (ディオセリル). To get revenge for her teacher,
Lufia asks to fight alone. Dioseril has 260 HP and casts Flame Bomb and Hell
Flame. I found that Lufia's evasion was pretty high at this part of the game,
so she avoided most of Dioseril's attacks and the battle wasn't too hard,
although you might need to heal once or twice. When Lufia wins, Dioseril
turns into her true form, a giant dragon.

Your entire party jumps into the battle at this point. The dragon's wings
have 230 HP, its tail has 250 HP, and its torso has 310 HP. You have to
defeat each section of the dragon to win. The torso casts Flame Bomb and
Flame Bless. Its tail does an attack that damages your whole party by quite a
lot, so you might want to focus on taking out the tail first. The Hell Flame
spell works well against the dragon. When you win, you get 729 Dalt and you
get the Orb (オーブ), which was Lufia's teacher's crystal ball. You also get
the gems you lost if you gave them to Dioseril in the Tower of Prophecy.

After this battle, you're still not done! The Orc Lord (オークロード) now
attacks. He has 280 HP and is very easy. When you defeat him, say "yes" to
allow the orc to explain why they did so much evil. They were influenced by
the Zool army, but now they will be peaceful. Your party levels up at this
point.

As you make your way out of the castle, Rejik leaves your party, saying he
forgot something at Keful Castle. You notice he stole all your gems and the
Orb.

---Nord Temple-----------------------------------------------------[sec5p]---
The next stop is the Nord Temple (ノルドしんでん), located North of Baruguna.

This location is rather small. Go to the upper-left corner of the first
screen to fall down a chute. In the basement, you can find the Iron Key
(てつのかぎ). Go up the stairs at the bottom of the screen to get back to the
first floor, then go past the Iron Door to reach the stairs at the top-middle
part of the first floor.

On the second floor, go down and right to meet Vindlas again, who doesn't
attack you. Go up the stairs a little below you to reach the third floor. Get
the Ariel Seed (エリアルのみ) on the right side of the screen. If you fall
down a chute on the left side of the screen, it will lead to the Darkness
(ダークネス) sword, which is powerful but cursed. Go to the upper-right part
of the third floor to meet Montazuna (モンタズナ). He has 520 HP, but he is
extremely weak and it should be no problem. When you win, you get back the
Orb, all of your gems, and your party levels up. Rejik appears and asks for
your forgiveness. He says he'll be at the Keful inn if you want him back in
your party.

After completing this mission, the Forbidden Door on the right side of the
first floor will be gone. You can follow the path behind it to get the Ur
Ring (ウルのゆびわ).

---Sarark Channel--------------------------------------------------[sec5q]---
Now that you have the Orb, you can talk to the priest in Kazusu to get the
Cat's Eye. Go talk to him and you give him the Orb. He goes to get the Cat's
Eye for you only to find it has been stolen! Next, head North to the Sarark
Channel (サラーク) with an opening in your party.

When you enter the Sarark Channel screen, you will find Nora (ノーラ), a
pirate-looking Shazu, who is similar to Shawna. She will join your party for
1000 Dalt if you have an opening. You want to hire her because she will allow
your party to cross the whirlpools in the channel, allowing you to progress
through this level.

There aren't really any good treasures or anything in the channel. Just try
to make your way North to the second screen. There are whirlpools along the
way that will send you back to the beginning of the channel unless Nora is in
your party, in which case you can pass safely. There are also a lot of tiles
that have a strong current which will send you moving in various directions,
making navigating the maze a little more confusing. This is all labeled on my
map, of course.

Make your way to the upper-right corner of the second screen, where you will
encounter Ifinu (イフィーヌ), who has 500 HP, and two Dark Knights
(ダークナイト). This battle is pretty easy, but when you defeat her, she
calls some monsters to come attack you. You battle five Scylla (スキュラ)
that have 155 HP each. They are weak against ice magic, but strong against
fire. They can attack with their tails (しっぽ) to damage all your party
members at once. Casting Guard helps reduce the damage from their tail
attack. Also, the Sleeper spell works on them. After winning, the last
monster kills Ifinu and the Cat's Eye, which she had stolen, sinks to the
bottom of the sea.

Go to the mermaid a little Southwest of where you had this battle. She
fetches the Cat's Eye (ねこめいし) gem for you and your party levels up. The
Cat's Eye spell will remove all status ailments from your party.

---Teibirke--------------------------------------------------------[sec5r]---
Next, go to the Goblin City of Teibirke (テイビルケ), located North of the
Sarark Channel. The goblin at the gate makes you pay 200 Dalt to enter.
Except for the Magic Guild, all of the shops here are only open at night.

In the house left of the inn with the purple sign, a goblin offers to sell
you a shield for 100000 Dalt. He will only make this offer if the Child of
Light has an empty space in his/her inventory. Say no and he will lower the
price. Repeatedly say no until the price is 40000 Dalt. Pay the 40000 to get
the Ur Shield (ウルのたて). You can do this later if you don't have the money
now, but you definitely want this shield.

In Northeast corner of town, enter the next dungeon, the Meira Temple
(メーラしんでん).

---Meira Temple----------------------------------------------------[sec5s]---
Once you enter the temple, you will not be able to get out easily.

On the first floor, go down the stairs in the upper-left corner of the
screen. In the basement, make your way to the lower-right corner of the
screen to find some stairs leading up. Back on the first floor, go down to
find the Copper Key (どうのかぎ). Retrace your steps to get back to the main
part of the first floor. From there, use the stairs on the lower-left to get
to the second floor. Open the Copper Door and fall down a chute in the upper-
left part of the screen. After falling to the first floor, go down to find
some stairs leading back up to the second floor. Then go up to get the Lead
Key (なまりのかぎ).

Get back to the main part of the first floor and open the Lead Door in the
lower-rigth part of the screen. Go down to find stairs leading up. On the
second floor, go up and right to find stairs leading up to the third floor.
On the third floor, you'll find Delaunay (ドローネ). She has 280 HP and it's
a pretty easy battle. When you win, she runs away, saying you've already
fallen into a trap. You get the Darkness Key (やみのかぎ). Go down the stairs
to the second floor, then open the Darkness Door at the bottom of the screen.
Past the door, go up to fall down a chute that puts you in front of the
temple entrance. When you go to leave the temple, you are ambushed by a
roman soldier looking guy named Nefelda (ネフェルーダ). He pulls a cord that
opens a trap door, causing you to fall into a water pit.

If you start walking, you will be unable to breath underwater. Take a few
steps and some mermaids will rescue you, taking you outside. They say to use
the Ariel Seed (エリアルのみ) next time. This is a good opportunity to rest
and save.

Enter the temple again, then try to exit and you will see the cord that
Nefelda pulled to open the trap door to the water pit. Pull it and you fall
back into the water. Use the Ariel Seed right away and you'll be able to
explore the dungeon. Note, you will not be able to use flame based magic
underwater.

You have current tiles to deal with here that will send you off in different
directions, just like in the Sarark Channel. Make your way to the upper-left
part of the screen to find some stairs leading down. On the next screen, you
can find a good sword called the Drakkhen (ドラッケン), and you can get the
Iron Key (てつのかぎ), which you'll need.

Return to the first underwater screen and make your way to the top-middle of
the screen to fight the Kraken (クラーケン). He has four arms with 210 HP
each, and one arm with 180 HP. He is very easy, since he has no special
attacks (that I saw at least). Freeze and sleep spells work against him. When
you win, you fight more body parts of the Kraken. This time, its head has 450
HP and its two arms have 310 HP each. Death Freeze works well against it
since it inflicts frozen status. When you win, you get 1898 Dalt and the
Black Pearl (くろしんじゅ), one of the sacred treasures. Your party levels up
at this point.

The Black Pearl will revive all of your dead party members with full HP,
which is obviousy very useful.

---Nord Cave-------------------------------------------------------[sec5t]---
Next, enter the Nord Cave (ノルドのどうくつ). Go down the stairs in the
upper-left corner of the screen. Then go through the door in the upper-left
corner of the second screen.

There are two stairs leading down at the top of the screen. Go down the one
that's located down the right-most path at the top of the screen. On the
fourth screen, go through the door in the upper-left corner. On the fifth
screen, head to the right-middle portion of the screen to fight a dragon,
named Esland (エスランド). His wings have 280 HP and his tail has 310 HP. His
head has 420 HP. Fire magic works well against him, but ice and thunder magic
don't work. His tail can attack all your party at once. His head uses a
Poison Gas attack that can paralyze your party, and he uses Bark (ほえる),
which will temporarily stun your party. When you win, you get 1503 Dalt and
your party levels up.

Walk down to get the Ur Armor (ウルのよろい).

This concludes your mission in the Nord Cave. However, there are a couple
other things you can get here. First of all, you can recruit a character
named Bolgard (ボールガード). He is found past a hidden door accessed by
pulling the right (みぎ) cord located a little to the left of the dragon
battle. First of all, I would say that I wasn't particularly impressed by
this character, so it's probably not worth your effort. But if you want to
give him a try, he tells you that he's bored and wants you to come back as
goblins before he'll join your party. This is hard to do because your party
will be very weak as goblins, but here's some tips of how to do this. Be
prepared with lots of healing spell cards and Runner cards to escape battles
(it's hard to escape battles when you're goblins because your speed is
decreased). If you have Amulets, that will help too by preventing random
encounters for a limited time. Use the mirror room in the Baran basement to
turn your entire party into goblins. Don't enter any cities now or you will
be forced to heal all of your party of the goblin status. Enter the Nord Cave
and use Amulets if you have them to avoid encounters, and use the Runner
spell cards to escape battles. Before reaching Bolgard, you will have to win
a non-random encounter with three Hags. This can be hard. Use your gem
spells, namely the Ruby and the Diamond, to damage them with the Light Child,
and use Mega Flame with Lufia. Don't let any of your party die or else it
will not count as having all of your party as goblins and Bolgard won't join
you. Reach Bolgard with all of your party as goblins and an opening in your
party and he will join you. He is a thunder-based magician.

Other than Bolgard, you can also get the Staff of Destruction (はかいのつえ)
on the last screen of the dungeon, which is powerful but cursed.

At this point, you might have all of the Ur equipment. If so, return to Bengu
Castle and pull the sword from the pedestal to get the Ur Sword
(ウルのつるぎ).

---Great Baran Temple----------------------------------------------[sec5u]---
The next goal is to visit the Great Baran Temple (だいバランしんでん),
located further along the path past the Nord Cave.

On the first floor, head to the lower-right area of the screen to find some
stairs leading down. In the basement, basically just follow the path which
leads to the left side of the screen where you'll find the Copper Key
(どうのかぎ). A few steps beyond that is a warp back to the dungeon entrance.

With the Copper Key, you can pass the Copper Door a little up and left from
the entrance. A few steps above the door are some stairs leading down. After
going down the stairs, head to the upper-left corner of the screen. A few
steps to the right from the corner is the Lead Key (なまりのかぎ). Just below
the upper-left corner are some stairs leading down. In the second basement,
you will get into a non-random encounter with some Dark Knights. Win this
battle to receive the Jail Key (ろうやのかぎ). Go to the upper-right corner
of the screen to unlock the jail door and free some Angels of Ulm and a
character you might recognize, Tamuron (タムローン). Your party levels up and
Tamuron says that she will be waiting at Keful Castle if you want her to join
you.

You might remember from the beginning of the game that Tamuron is pretty
strong, so she's a good choice for a character to keep in your front row if
you don't like everyone you have.

Head back to the first floor of the castle. Toward the upper-left area you
will find a mirror room. When you search the mirrors, whatever character you
chose to do the search will be reflected in the mirror and three
doppelgangers of that character will attack you. Defeat them to find a hidden
passage. Enter it and you'll be one space above the mirror room. Head toward
the upper-right corner of the screen to find an evil god statue that will
warp you to the first basement. Here, you will find some great treasures:
three Hama Shields (はまのたて), the Tempest (テンペスト), and the Flame
Staff (ほのおのつえ). Go downwards past a non-random encounter, then head
left to find the warp back to the first floor.

On the first floor, go to the lower-left corner of the screen to find some
stairs leading up. On the second floor, you will pass the Lead Door. Your
goal here is to get the Iron Key (てつのかぎ), located on the upper-right
region of the screen. With the key, fall down a nearby chute (up and left
from the key location), then go up, then left, then down to find a door
beyond which is the elevator.

Take the elevator down a floor, then follow the path to the right to fight a
non-random encounter with some Manticores (マンティコア). Win the battle and
get the Steel Key (はがね) in the chest further right. Go back to the
elevator and take it all the way to the top floor. Follow the path (avoiding
the upper-left corner where there's a chute) and go through the Steel Door. A
little farther, you will find a beggar. The beggar says that only the Child
of Light can pass and asks if you are ready to go alone. Say yes and you will
go one space right, beyond the wall, but you will be controlling the Child of
Light alone.

Follow the path to fight Nefelda (ネフェルーダ). She has 800 HP. You can cast
Guard to help yourself, and use healing spells when needed, but it's a pretty
easy battle. You get 251 Dalt when you win and the Ruby (ルビー). The Light
Child levels up.

You now have six of the seven sacred treasures. A dragon named Muzmark
appears and tells you to go to Zool Temple to get the final treasure, the
Diamond.

As you exit the Great Baran Temple, your friend the bat, named Buran, tells
you that Gandalf wants to see you.

---Danshinein Forest Revisited Again-------------------------------[sec5v]---
Return to the first forest of the game, in the Southeast corner of the world
map. Follow the steps you took to find Gandalf on the fourth screen. When you
find him this time, he will say that you need his help to deal with the evil
wizard Mondol. He offers to join your party, but you must remove someone from
your party if you already have five. You can get this character back later by
going to Keful Castle.

At this time, you can either go straight to Zool Temple to get the Diamond,
or you can go to the Ice Cave (located North of Nord Temple) to tackle an
optional side quest. The optional side quest has multiple rewards you can
choose from. Depending on which one you take, something different can happen
in the Zool Temple. I'll spoil it here:

**Spoiler********************************************************************
You can learn the name of Mondol's spell in the Ice Cave, which will prevent
you from having to fight him in Zool Temple. If you do not know the spell
name, Gandalf will have to sacrifice himself to defeat Mondol. So if you
really want Gandalf to stay alive, go to the Ice Cave first. However, there
are other rewards in the Ice Cave that you might want instead (you can only
choose one reward, and the spell name is one of them). It doesn't really
matter what you choose, you'll beat the game anyway, I believe in you.
**End Spoiler****************************************************************

---Zool Temple Revisited-------------------------------------------[sec5w]---
You'll recall that the Zool Priest told you to return when you had six of the
seven gems. Go seem him now. He offers to warp you to the room where the
final gem awaits. Of course, it's a trap. The priest was really the evil
wizard Mondol (モンドール). He says he and Gandalf are of the same blood and
a battle ensues between him and Gandalf alone.

Mondol has 300 HP and casts Death Freeze, Mega Thunder, and Molt (モルト).
But if you just use regular attacks, he should go down easily since Galdalf
is so powerful. When you win, Mondol uses the last of his might to cast Mega
Might. Gandalf casts Mega Might at the same time. Both figures disappear,
dead I guess.

You find yourself lost in the middle of Zool Temple. Go to the lower-right to
find a chute. Then fall down another chute to the lower-right. You will be in
the lower-right corner of the third basement, which is a big room. Go to the
upper-right from where you fell to find the Lead Key (なまりのかぎ).

Next, go left toward the lower-left corner of the room, then go up. Don't go
all the way to the top of the screen because there's a tough non-random
battle there, but go one step below that. Then go right toward the upper-
right corner of the room. You will find two cords to pull. Pull the right
(みぎ) one to move one space downward through a hidden passage. Find the non-
random encounter with the Manticores in this area. After winning, follow the
left path to find the Copper Key (どうのかぎ). Use the evil god statue warp,
located further West, to exit this area.

You are warped near the two cords you just encountered. Go right back to
those cords, and this time pull the left (ひだり) one to go one space up
through a hidden passage. From there, make your way to the Copper Door and go
up the stairs behind it.

On the next floor, go left and down to find a Lead Door, which you need to
open. There is another Lead Door on this floor you need to pass, but this
game has a weird issue that the door should automatically disappear after you
used the Lead Key, but it won't unless you first go to another floor. So
backtrack to the stairs you just came up and go down them again. Then come
back up and the other Lead Door will be gone. Make your way to the lower-
right corner of the room. Then go up to the upper-right corner of the room to
find the Steel Key (はがねのかぎ).

Go up the stairs a little to the lower-left of where you found the Steel Key.
From there, go up, left, right, then all the way up to the upper-right
portion of the screen. Go left and up along the nearby path to find the Iron
Key (てつのかぎ).

Go a little down and right to find a warp that will send you back to the
place that's near the two cords you're growing accustomed to. Go back to the
cords, pull the left one, go past the place where the Copper Door used to be,
and go up the stairs. Then go back to the lower-right corner of the next
screen and go up the stairs a little up and left from there. This time, after
going up the stairs, go down and right, then go left toward the lower-left
corner of the screen, passing through an Iron Door, and follow the path to
find the Forbidden Key (あかず).

Next, go back toward the right and fall down a chute near where you opened
the Iron Door. Then, go up some stairs just above where you landed. After
going upstairs, follow the path leading upward until you find a cord. Pull it
to go through a hidden door leading up. After going through the hidden
passage, you will come across two cords, which you should ignore. Continue
toward the left side of the screen where you will find the Forbidden Door.
Open it and on the other side you will find the Diamond (ダイアモンド) and
your party levels up.

There is another Forbidden Door past the Diamond. As before, the game will
automatically open this door, but you have to go to a different floor first.
Backtrack to the two cords you ignored and pull the right (みぎ) cord. This
takes you back to the place where you started after the Mondol battle. Seems
like you have a long way to go to get back to the second Forbidden Door, but
this is what you have to do. Along the way, you can get a good piece of
armor, though.

Fall down the chute to the lower-right. On the next floor, go up some stairs
to the lower-left. From there, head toward the left to find two cords. Pull
the left (ひだり) one to move up one space through the wall. In this area,
you'll find the Earth Guard (アースガルド). From there, go right through the
one-way passage. Then you'll be in the area where you started after the
Mondol battle yet again. From here, retrace your steps to get back to the
Forbidden Door and continue along that path to reach the dungeon exit.

---Ice Cave--------------------------------------------------------[sec5x]---
You'll need to get a fifth party member again after Gandalf's demise if you
did the Zool Temple first. Next, there is an optional dungeon you can do. I
recommend giving it a try since you can only level up by completing missions,
so this will give you a level up, and a few other things potentially.

The Ice Cave (こおりのどうくつ) is located North of Nord Temple. Go up on the
small first screen to get to the second screen. On the second screen, you
will have to battle some Trolls in the upper-right area of the screen. This
Ice Cave is the home of the Trolls, after all. Beyond this battle are some
cords. Pull the right (みぎ) one to fall down a chute.

On the next floor, go down and left to find stairs leading up. Upstairs, go
up and right to get the Steel Key (はがねのかぎ). Go back downstairs, then go
toward the lower-right region of the screen. From there, go up to find some
cords. Ignore them and take a step up to find a second pair of cords. Pull
the right (みぎ) to enter a passage leading left. From there, go up to the
next screen. Head toward the upper-left area of this screen to find a door
leading to another screen.

On the next screen, go up and left a little to find the Steel Door. Pass it
and go up to find two cords. Pull the left (ひだり) one to open a passage
leading left. Then go to the upper-left corner of the screen to fall down a
chute. After falling, go to the lower-left part of the screen, then go right
to find the Copper Key (どうのかぎ). Now, you need to exit the dungeon by
going up the stairs that are just above the Copper Key location. Then make
your way to a door that's to the right of your current location that leads to
the screen downward. Then go down to the bottom of the screen to find another
door leading to the screen downward. From there, go straight down to find an
evil god statue that will warp you out of the dungeon.

Re-enter the dungeon, then retrace your steps back to the screen where you
opened the Steel Door. Use the cords above that spot to go through the hidden
passage to the left again. This time, don't fall down the chute in the upper-
left corner, but instead go toward the upper-left corner, then go right and
down to the lower-right area of the screen to find stairs leading down to the
next floor. After going downstairs, go down and open the Copper Door. Go up
and right from there and find the Lead Key (なまりのかぎ).

Go back up the stairs you just used, and go all the way to the upper-left
corner of the next screen to fall down the chute you fell down previously.
There is a mirror room to your right, but you have to go down and right, then
back up to get to it. Use the mirror room to warp. After warping, follow the
path and open the Lead Door you find. From there, go right then up to find
another mirror room where you can warp. After warping, go down and find the
Iron Key (てつのかぎ). Return to the mirror room and warp back to the area
where you opened the Lead Door. Go up the path that was above the Lead Door
where you'll fight a pretty tough non-random battle. After winning, proceed
up to open the Iron Door. Continue going up and find the Troll King
(トロルキング).

The Troll King has 800 HP and casts Death Freeze. He's weak versus fire and
ice is ineffective against him. Casting Power, Guard, and Barrier can help
make this easier. When you win, your party levels up. The Troll King offers
you the choice of four rewards:
とみ - "Wealth". Get 100000 Dalt.
ちから - "Strength". Your party levels up again.
けん - "Sword". Get the Death Deliver sword.
なまえ - "Name". Learn Mondol's spell name.

If you want my opinion of what to take, here it is. Obviously you don't want
the wealth since money is replaceable. If Gandalf is already dead, then
there's no reason to learn Mondol's spell name. If you haven't gotten the
Diamond from Zool Temple yet and you want Gandalf to stay alive, then you
should consider that option. The Death Deliver is a strong sword, but the Ur
Sword is better for your main character. You can get the Holy Axe in the
final dungeon, which is better than the Death Deliver. So, there's only one
more person that would be in your front row that could use that sword. The
Tempest sword is a reasonably strong alternative, so my opinion is the sword
is not the best option. My opinion is that the party level up is the best. It
is the only option which results in an upgrade of your entire party's stats,
rather than just a single character upgrade. Gandalf is pretty awesome
though, but level ups are hard to come across in this game.

---Bulgandy Island-------------------------------------------------[sec5y]---
With all seven sacred treasures in your possession, you will be able to enter
the final dungeon, the Bombeit Volcano on Bulgandy Island (ブルガンディとう).

This is a very large dungeon, full of great equipment. Refer to my map to
locate the items, and it may be worth your time to delve into the dungeon
just to get one item, then escape and save. Then enter again and get another
one and escape and save, and so on until you have the best equipment. Items
worth doing this for are the Glam Wand (グラムワンド), Holy Axe
(ホリーアクス), Heal Ring (ヒールリング), and two Oracles (オラクルス).

You can also get the Dragon Mail (ドラゴメイル) by finding a baby dragon
named Muzark (ムザーク) and taking it to its dad, Muzmark (ムズマルク).
Muzmark gives you the Dragon Mail as a reward for finding its child. However,
if you approach Muzmark without Muzark (who is entered as an item in your
inventory, by the way. The Child of Light needs to have an opening in his
inventory for you to take the dragon baby), then Muzmark will attack you and
you'll have to kill it. You get no reward for doing that.

There are at least two ways to reach the last boss in this dungeon. I'll
explain the most obvious way which relies on finding all of the keys. Here's
that path.

On the first floor, go counter-clockwise around the room to get to the stairs
leading down at the top of the screen. On the second screen, go clockwise
around the perimeter of the screen to reach some stairs leading down to floor
B2 in the upper-left corner of the room. You'll probably want to take a
detour to get Muzark if you haven't yet. Go to the middle-left side of the
screen to find some stairs down. Then go to the lower-right part of B3 to
find more stairs down. Muzark will be just beyond a non-random encounter on
this floor. Backtrack to B2.

On B2, you want to reach a mirror room located toward the center of the
screen. Go clockwise around the screen, then up toward the center to find the
mirror room. It warps you to a small area of B3 where you'll find the Iron
Key (てつのかぎ). With the key, go back to the mirror room and warp back to
B2.

Next, go down and left to find an Iron Door which you can now open. Past the
door, you'll find stairs leading down. Head up and right on B3 and you'll
come across the Lead Key (なまりのかぎ). Head to the left to find a Lead Door
which you can now pass through. From that door, go down and right to find
stairs leading down to B4. On B4, go right then up and follow the path to
find two cords. Pull the left (ひだり) cord to go up one space through the
wall. Then go to the upper-right corner of the screen, then head straight
down to find the Steel Key (はがねのかぎ).

Next, go all the way up, then as far as you can left, then straight down to
find a Steel Door. Pass through it, then go down and make your way to the
right side of the screen. There is another Steel Door here you need to pass,
but you have to go to a different floor to make it disappear first. There are
stairs directly left from the door, so go up them, then come back down and
pass where the Steel Door was to take some stairs down to B5.

On B5, follow the path and you will find a cord. Ignore it and take the
upper-right path just beyond it. Soon, you'll see a helmet which belonged to
the holy knight Mart, but it has no purpose. Follow the path all the way to
Muzmark. As explained above, he will give you the Dragon Mail if you brought
his son, Muzark. Otherwise, you will have to fight him. After dealing with
Muzmark in whatever way you chose, continue past his lair and follow the path
to some stairs leading down to B6.

On B6, get to the lower-right part of the screen to find two cords. Pull the
right (みぎ) cord to pass the wall to the right, where you'll find the Copper
Key (どうのかぎ). Head back toward the stairs. Instead of going up the
stairs, go left near the stairs to find a Copper Door. After opening the
door, you can go up to find an elevator, giving yourself a chance to get out
of the dungeon fairly conveniently to rest and save.

From this elevator, still on B6, go down and left toward the lower-left part
of the screen. Then go right to find stairs at the bottom-middle of the
screen. Go down the stairs, then work your way to the upper-right part of B7
to find the Zool Key (ゾールのかぎ). Then, make your way toward the top-
middle part of the screen to find the Zool Door, beyond which you'll find a
door that leads to Zool's throne room.

---The Final Battle------------------------------------------------[sec5z]---
In Zool's throne room, you'll fight all of his servants again. First you
battle Zakkarif (ザッカリフ), who has 520 HP. He casts Vital, but it's a very
very easy battle.

Second, you battle Delaunay (ドローネ), who has 650 HP. This is another easy
battle.

Third, you fight Montazuna (モンタズナ), who has 720 HP. He casts Thunder,
but it's another easy battle.

The fourth battle is against Dioseril (ディオセリル) in her dragon form. It's
quite a bit harder because she has so much HP to drain (530 for her wing, 680
for her head, 550 for her tail).

For the fifth battle, Nefelda (ネフェルーダ) has 999 HP and isn't terribly
hard.

Now you'll finally face Zool (ゾール). Hopefully you haven't used too many of
your sacred treasure spells, because they will be a great help, especially
the Black Pearl.

Before the battle, Zool asks if you will surrender Ulfrend (ウルフレンド),
the name of this world, to him. Say "no" obviously. He'll then show you a
crowd and say he'll make you rich and famous if you devote yourself to him.
Say "no" again. If you agree to either of these, the game will end and this
is obviously not the good ending.

After rejecting him twice, Zool will attack. In his first form, he casts
Terror (テラー) and, after every turn, his life is restored by the Diamond
which you hold. There's no point in attacking him because he'll just keep
healing himself after every turn. Use the Diamond spell from the Child of
Light's magic list and you will throw the Diamond at Zool which causes him to
freak out. he changes color, and now the battle really begins. In his second
form, he casts Might, Mega Thunder, and Terror. Cast Barrier to increase your
magic defense, and Power to increase your attack strength. He has a lot of
HP, so be prepared for a long battle. Save your Opal and Black Pearl casts
for as long as you can. Unfortunately, magic attacks don't seem to work so
well, so you'll want to prioritize keeping your strong physical attackers
healthy. Good luck!

When you defeat Zool, you've beaten the game! You have to walk out of Zool's
throne room, and the volcano starts filling with lava. As it seems you'll
die, the holy knight Mart appears and warps you out of the volcano. You hear
the voices of the gods congratulate you, and you see Sophia (ソフィア),
Mart's wife. You learn that they are your parents. I don't exactly understand
what's happened, but the baby you saved early in the game was also their
child, and it had the same pendant as you, so somehow you've time traveled or
something? It didn't seem to be explained so well. Anyway, a crowd gathers
round and celebrates and all is happy ever after.
