===========================
V. General Overview (GH005)
===========================
Hercules no Eikou III or Glory of Heracles III is a Japanese RPG made by Data
East. The third installment made its debut on the SNES back in 1992. The story
focuses on the main protagonist who had awakened in a small hamlet not knowing
who he is. His only clue to his identity is him being immortal due to surviving
falls that are literally impossible to survive and his frequent dreams of him
being in an unknown monument. Like the other installments, Hercules no Eikou
III is set in fictitious Ancient Greece.
Hercules no Eikou III follows the traditional-Style RPG. It's as traditional as
your typical Dragon Quest game; that's all that I'm going to say. But, there
are a few twists here and there. For example, the day and night system found in
Hercules no Eikou II had once again influence on what you do in the game. Some
events only happen in a particular part of the day. Also, you need to start
jumping off buildings to get attention from other people.

with the highest agility to the slowest. You can have up to five people in
battle.

Paralyze: The ally cannot act for one turn

Fainted: The ally is incapacitated
-------------------------
Gameplay Overview (GP00C)
-------------------------
You probably ask yourself, this game is traditional as you can get. If I can
play Dragon Quest or any of the traditional JRPGs out there, I think I get
the basic idea. Well, if you put it that way, you are probably right. BUT,
this game does have some twist on the usual formula.
Trust System
------------
The game's battle system emphasize on the Trust system. Although you can con-
-trol your allies manually, there are times that your allies will act on its
own. In a way, it's a double-edged sword. On one hand, your ally will priori-
-tize healing someone in critical health or kill off the enemy for the lowest
health over your own commands. Also, when your ally is in danger, they defend
themselves to the back row. When you think about it, Data East did a hell of a
good job making the AI competent. On the other hand, the problem is that
sometimes you might be too dependable on the command AI. For example, suppose
you are in a boss fight. You do your usual repetitive commands. But when the
boss did damage on your allies they do what they can to get themselves out of
danger. Assuming that they'll do the same on the next turn, you suddenly found
out they actually obeyed you. Although the AI is very good, they are downright
unpredictable.
So what stat determines their AI? I want you to guess real good. If you said
"trust" you are correct. The trust stat determines how your allies will obey
you. The higher the trust, the more likely your ally will obey to your command.
The only way to raise your trust stat is to simply level up. Also, do keep in
mind is that when you begin to have allies in your party, you'll notice that
your allies will often stop you from grabbing hidden items in towns. If you
happen to take it, your trust stat will go down by a few points.
HP: 0 =/= Death
---------------
Believe it or not, if your HP is zero, you are not dead. I bet you are mind-
blown by just reading this. Let's just say that zero HP is an equivilent to
1 HP in RPGs. However, if the number value is below zero, then you are dead
for sure. When you are revived after the battle is over, you'll have 0 HP
remaining. Certain part of the game do take advantage of this. For example,
if you have 0 HP, your allies can cover the damage for you.
Inn System
----------
There are two types of options: Sleep or Rest. When you rest, you only recover
HP and daytime will change into night time. It's a lot cheaper. But when you
sleep, you'll recover HP and MP; and you'll be rested up for the next day. You
might trigger a dream sequence. Also, when there's a town with no inn, you can
steal someone's bed to sleep in. You'll recover HP and MP as well. BTW, when
you get out of bed, be sure to tap down twice to get out of bed. It's not a
glitch where you are stuck in bed after you sleep.
Rows and Weapon Range
---------------------
When you are in the battlefield, there are two battle positions: front and back
row. Obviously, the front row is built for the melee type characters and the
back row is built for the defensive type characters. The enemy also takes
advantage of this. Often times, the enemy would constantly shift to different
rows. For example, if your character is in the front row using a close range
weapon, and your opponent is in the back, you would not reach your opponent.
This is especially true if your opponent is a flying type. Keep in mind that
the types of weapons you use also has an effect to the battlefield as well.
Some weapons have certain advantage or disadvantage to the rows. For example,
if your character is using claws as your main weapon, there's a good chance
that you cannot attack the enemies in the back row. Also, if you are in the
backrow, you cannot use melee weapons. But there are exceptions to the rule.
Here are the list to the types of weapons. Please note that battle position
is what row you can use your weapon.
Also, while the strength value is based on the weapon strength, do keep in
mind that the character's attack power is also a factor as well. Lastly,
proficency is also a factor. If you use a weapon that you haven't mastered,
the damage is significantly lower and the accuracy is below average.
Sometimes enemies can defend itself more often for a weapon that has not been
mastered. So, to prevent that from happening, you need to meet up with someone
who can teach you how to use the weapon properly.

Character Analysis (GP00D)
--------------------------
Primary Stats
-------------
Like all the other RPGs, there are stats to determine differentiation among the
characters in your party.
Strength: It's a base stat that determines Physical Strength
Defense: Determines how well one can withstand your opponent's attack.
It also determines by the individual's armor
Vitality: It's a base stat that determines your overall defense
Intelligence: It's a base stat that determines your overall magic
effectiveness
Agility: Determines the turn order in battle
Trust: Determines how well your allies will obey you in battle
Attack Power: Increases overall physical strength depending on the weapon one
is using
Defense Power: Increases overall physical defense depending on the armor one
is using
Characters
----------
Protagonist: He basically got all the bases covered. He have a balanced stat.
A diverse magic spell that covers offensive, recovery, support and field magic.
Also with high MP, he can use the Reasoning Sword without any problems.
Reion: He leans more on the healing person more than anything else. He has a
moderately high MP and has plenty of status effect magic. He also has above
average strength. The main drawback to Reion is that he is slower than everyone
else.
Hercules: He is pure muscle. He can dish out heavy damage. If you give him a
weapon that can deal massive damage, he's your character to use. Unfortunately,
he cannot learn any magic what-so-ever. Also, he's not around your party often.
Since he cannot use MP, you might as well give him the Reasoning Sword or other
weapons that rely on brute strength.
Steira: She's obviously a mage with stereotypical stats. She has high intell-
-igence and a weak defense. Even if you put her in the back with good armor,
she'll die within a few hits. But, what's good about her is that she has all
the offensive magic and great buffering magic. Just be careful that she is
very frail
Hero: He doesn't have an official name first off. But like the protagonist, he
too also have average stats. But, what differs from the protagonist is that he
specializes on support magic. He has all the barrier magic and uses the de-buff
magics. He has a mix of offensive and recovery magic as well. Overall, he's
a lovely "Red-Mage" despite the fact that you'll get him later on in the game.
=============================
VIII. Tips and Tricks (GH008)
=============================
Like all the other games out there, here are some tricks of the trade for
you to survive this game.
1) Taking a dip to a hot spring is quite relaxing...
This is the only way you obtain magic. Going to temples will reveal what magic
you will use in the course of the game. However, you need to level up to regain
the magic you once lost. Also, whenever you recruit a character, it's a good
idea to backtrack to all the previous temples. You'll probably unlock useful
magic along the way.
2) Mundane items are downright deadly in battle...
Yep, every day items are useful in battle. If you happened to find too many
wine bottles laying around, use that to cast sleep to all your allies. But it
gets better. Wearing a Copper Ring and use it battle can incinerate the entire
battlefield in one-turn causing the enemies to take severe damage. Accessory
items have limited use and it's up to you take advantage of it.
3) When in doubt, do something outragous....
There are times that events can only trigger in a certain time of day. Also,
your action does have some conseqences. For example, jumping from high places
can piss people off or you'll attact a whole crowd. Even what clothes you are
wearing can help trigger an event. For example, if there's a bar that doesn't
allow guys, you can wear girl clothes to bypass the rule. Best of all, people
fall for this every time. I think the protagonist must've a baby face to pull
that off.
4) Just because it's cursed, that doesn't mean you can fully utilize its
abilities...
Generally, the cursed items usually spell trouble to the character that equips
it. Yes, you will get the nasty side-effects the first time you equip it. How-
-ever, if you used the Holy Dew Drop, your free of taking off the item at any
time. But, if you decided to keep the cursed item equipped, it'll function like
any normal equipment. To be honest, some of the cursed items can do status
effects on the enemies. Plus, the damage on the weapons are generally higher
than the ones at the weapon shop. So, check out the cursed items.
=======================
IX. Walkthrough (GH009)
=======================
Note: All treasures found in the drawers and other places are found on the
right side and key items are marked * on the side.
------------------
Awakening: (WT001)
------------------
Hamlet
------
Treasure: Short Sword
Jewel
Bronze Sword (Underworld)
So, you are waking up and you'll be asked to name your protagonist. Once you
done that, you can look around a bit. To your left is a Hermes' Statue. This
statue is the one that will save your progress. Look around a bit in this
generic looking village. Talk to the lady in the pigpen and an event will
trigger. Once you know what's going on, a group of pixies will join your party;
9 pixies to be exact. However, you are not going to use 9 pixies in battle.
They all count as one entity. Their specialty is to heal and gives you buffs.
Do keep in mind that they'll leave once you enter a human town. Oh, also note
that there are many holes like the one you see at the village throughout the
world map. Keep an eye for it. Unfortunately, you cannot jump the big hole
because the fairy is in the way.
Anyways, you are at the world map. Assuming that your next destination is the
nearest town, you are wrong. The town closest to the village is not the next
destination. Why? Because in that town, there are guards on the front of the
gate. If you went there, you are going to lose the group of pixies. So,
instead, head to the next village further east. You'll head to Gortyn.
---------------------------
Gortyn and Knossos: (WT002)
---------------------------
Gortyn
------
Treasure: *Girl Clothes wine
This is a town where they make wine. Unfortunately, they don't have an inn in
this town. So, you are going have to take someone's bed in one of the houses.
Also, if you head to the house northeast of Hermes' Statue, this is where you
will find Girl Clothes. This is a vital component because this will trigger
important events. Anyways, before you want to progress through the story, you
will need to head out of Gortyn and head to the Temple of Demeter. This is one
of the many temples you'll need to visit in order to regain your powers. Dip in
the spring and a set of magic will be revealed to you; all of them are healing
magic. But, build up your experience and you'll learn Pow. Once you are done,
you can progress to the plot. Be sure that the town you are in is currently
DAYTIME. If not, just go outside and wait for the sun to rise. Okay, if you
are in Gortyn in the daytime, head to the to the left-most house northwest of
Hermes' Statue. Okay, someone will make an offer for work, but he only hire
female workers. So, make yourself pretty by wearing those wonderful girl
clothes and present yourself to the guy. Then an event will occur.
Knossos
-------
Well, you managed to pass the guards. But, it's not what you expected. You can
talk to all of those ladies in the room. But the most importantly, talk to the
lady in the top left corner. She'll tell you that there's something in the
corner. Then take off your girl clothes and speak to her again. Once you hear
what she has to say, examine the corner by pressing A. Then a staircase will
appear. A group of ladies will join your party.
Knossos Sewers
--------------
Treasures: Herb
Jewel
Bleh, a sewer dungeon? It's not as bad as some of the RPGs. Thank you,
high escape rate. Anyways, this is a very short dungeon. Just keep going
until you meet the old man. Accept his offer and continue to move forward.
Unlike the ladies, he old man is as useful as paperweight. He's going to keep
hiding while the ladies and you do all the work killing the monsters. Once you
let the old man join your party keep going forward until you see a stairway.
The stairway leads to a floodgate switch. Then, head down the stairs and
continue to move forward. The treasure near the the floodgate switch contains
a Jewel while the treasure near the exit contains a herb. Once you are out of
the sewers, the lovely ladies will leave your party. The useless old man will
leave your party as well. However, he'll give you a reward. Your reward is to
freely talk to the people of Knossos. Yeah, awesome reward. Well, at least you
can explore the town.
----------------------------------
Knossos (After the Event): (WT003)
----------------------------------
Treasures: Jewel 64 D
21 D Herb
31 D
Blue Nectar
13 D
*Reion's Journal
You can look around town a bit. It actually have all the essentals you need.
So, feel free to stop by. There are several noteworthy tidbits. One, if you
head to the house above the inn, you'll talk to a man who will teach you how
to use fist weapons efficently. If the person doesn't know how to use that
kind of weapon, the person will have a much lower accuracy and the overall
performance of the weapon is not fully realized. Feel free to teach your
character on how to use it. The room upstairs, you can grab 64D next to the
sleeping lady. If you head further north, there's a house near the port. You
can grab a herb in one of the jar.
To progress to the story, head northeastern part of the town to see a suicide
jump show. But, you have to pay 10 D and it has to be a daytime to see it.
So once you paid, watch the performance. Once you are done, wait until night-
-fall and enter the tower. Head to the top and double-tap down to jump off the
building. Watch the event unfold and the stunt performer will talk to you. Once
you hear what he has to say, and Reion will join your party. Once you have done
that, you'll need the boat to leave the island. Talk to the innkeeper. Agree to
his offer that both you and Reion will perform the Suicide jump. Once you have
done that, meet him at the foot of the tower. Talk to the innkeeper and perform
your stunt. Once you are done, the boat is yours. Before you head out, there
are couple things you need to do before you go. One head to Temple of Demeter
so Reion's magic will be revealed. Also head back to the fairy hamlet and
jump down the hole. There you'll find the Bronze Sword. Once you are done
preparing yourself, head to the boat. As you are heading to the mainland,
you are going to encounter the Dark One. You cannot win this battle since he's
going to suck you in.
Inside the Dark One
-------------------
Treasure: Herb
Medicine
Okay, go straight. To your right, you will find a herb. Then keep going forward
through the dungeon until you stumble onto a waterfall. It'll push you all the
way back to the beginning. However, the blockade will open, setting you up into
a new path. So, continue to move forward until you find the medicine in a
treasure box. Head to the button south of the treasure box. Examine the switch
and head to the waterfall. The flow of the waterfall should move straight down.
Continue to go forward until you find an exit. Once you are out, you and Reion
will split up. He'll inform you to meet him in Athens.
---------------------------
Laconia and Sparta: (WT004)
---------------------------
Laconia
-------
Treasure: *Officer's License Herb
Thorn Whip (Underworld) Antidote
wine x3
Carrot
Escargo
There's nothing noteworthy about the town other than there's a bunch of
Spartans out there. But, before you progress to the story, head out to the
world map and head west to the large hole. Jump down and grab the Thorn Whip.
Once you got it return to Laconia and head to the bar with your girl clothes
equipped. You'll talk to a bunch of drunk Spartans. In the bar alone, you'll
find a lot of hidden items there; so start looking at the jars. Then speak to
the Spartan Knight upstairs. He'll tell you what's going on. Once you know what
he has to say, head out to the bar and climb the ladder. Then, jump off the
cliff and a bunch of Spartans will congratulate you. Because you jump off a
cliff and survived, you earned the Officer's Licence which make you the captain
to the Spartans. From there, nine Spartans will join your party. The group of
Spartans are quite interesting. Their power is based on the number of soldiers
available in the party. Their attack power gets cut off if the soldiers is
below the maximum. They can cover you if your HP is 0 and they can ask for
reinforcements if their troops are dwindling. Anyways, head north to Sparta.
Sparta
------
Treasure: Rusty Sword Wine
Herb
So, when you have a group of soldiers in your party, the guards will let you
in. Explore the town as usual. As of now, you cannot fight the monster at the
northern exit because you cannot touch the boss at all. For now ignore it. To
proceed to the story, head to the barracks. It should stand out because it is
the largest building in the city. Talk to the commander at the barracks and
he'll inform you that there are monsters lurking in the cave southeast of
Sparta. So, let's proceed to the Spartan Cave. Before you do, there's a guy
in town that can teach you how to use a spear. He is at the barracks on the
1st floor.
Spartan Cave
------------
Treasure: Antidote
Harp
Scarab
Soothing Rod
I hope you bought a lot of antidotes because most of the enemies deal poison
attacks. It can be quite annoying because it saps the HP very quickly. Anyways,
from your current position, head west. Then at the crossroad, head south to
get the treasure, antidote. Once you get the treasure. Continue to trek west.
On the second basement floor, keep going forward until you see two sets of
stairs. The stairs that goes upstairs leads to the harp while the stairs that
goes down leads to the boss. Keep going until you see a ghostly figure at the
end of the road. There, you'll fight your first boss in the game.
Boss: Arglio
------------
He has few tricks up on his sleeves. He has a high attack power. But however,
when he's dying, he begins to buff himself up by raising his attack power. Then
he blows a tornado to do significant damage. This could be tough if you are not
prepared. You'll notice that the soldiers will often call for reinforcement as
their HP slowly dwindles down to zero. If you are in danger, the soldiers will
protect you. Just go on what you have and you'll survive the battle.
Once Arglio dies, the soldiers are happy that their dead captain's revenge had
finally be realized. Once they done that the leave your party. For you, con-
-tinue to move forward and grab the treasures: Soothing Rod and Scarab. The
Soothing Rod has the same effect as Pow; it heals a small amount of HP. But the
rod has limited use. Scarab at the other hand lets you teleport out of the
dungeon. Obviously, use the scarab and head back to Sparta. The northern exit
should open up. But before you go, talk to the girl on the right. Agree to her
offer and you'll recieve the Rusty Sword. Hang on to that for now. Now, con-
-tinue to move north to Athens. At this point, Sparta will be rebuilt and now
there's a master will teach you how to use the sword on one the newly built
houses south of the school. Anyways, on the world map, you'll probably find a
pillar along the way. Ignore that for now and proceed forward.
---------------
Athens: (WT005)
---------------
Athens (Western part of the City)
---------------------------------
Treasure: None Antidote
Harp
If you enter from the richer part of the area, they'll ask you to enter the
western gate. That part of the city is where the slaves reside. Obviously,
there are guards all over the place, you can't enter to the wealther part of
the city. So the only way to get in is to jump off the tower. So, head to the
tower and do your jump. You'll trigger an event. Once you see what's happening,
you'll be reunited with Reion. Once you are out of jail, talk to the old man
northeast of the prison ward. He'll tell you who he is and he needs you to get
to the palace. So, he will inform you that there's a hidden path Southwest of
Athens. Okay, before you progress to the plot, I want you to go to the Temple
of Athene northeast of Athens. There, you'll find another set of spells at your
disposal for future use. Once you done that head to the pillar.
Hidden Passage
--------------
Treasure: Herb
Iron Sword
Okay, the King will tell you to examine the pillar and tell you to take 4 steps
west and 3 steps north and examine it. There you'll find the hidden passage.
The dungeon is quite interesting since you have to dig your way in. Continue to
move forward. Then when you see the treasure box, grab it; it contains a herb.
Procced until you hit the second basement floor. Okay, once you at the second
basement floor, move around the northeastern part of the dirt patch. You will
unearth a healing spring. Then continue east. Along the way, you'll find
another treasure box that contains the iron sword. Once you found the stairs
just keep going forward and the King of Athens will thank you for helping him
out. There, you get to explore around the Palace.
Athens (Palace)
---------------
Treasure: *Eye of the Gods Herb
*Myth Handbook
Night Curtain
Herb Bag
Holy Dew Drop
Jewel x2
This palace is full of interesting treasures. Most importantly, grab all the
treasures found in the palace. There are two key items I want to discuss. One
of the items you hold is the Eye of the Gods. What it does is that when you
are at the world map, the map zooms out from your current position. You can
see the perimeter of the area. This is quite useful for scouting the area. Also
it saves a whole lot of time exploring around. You can find interesting
locations. The second key item is the Myth Handbook. It's basically a profile
to the people you met and the Greek Gods. Be sure to check out the kitchen to
grab some herbs before you go. Now, you can explore the Eastern part of Athens.
Athens (Eastern part of the City)
---------------------------------
Treasure: None Harp
Now you can explore the rest of the city now. Let's see, the most important
part of the city is the Theater. Also, by then, you can meet up with the
Centaur north of the inn on the western part of the city. He can help you
find your forgotten buried items. The following segment is OPTIONAL. Skip to
the third paragraph if you want to progress to the story.
If you head to the Theater at night, you'll find an instructor backstage who
will teach you how to play a harp. For 50 D, you can have a tutorial. It
consists of a mini game that plays like Simon. Whatever the instructor plays a
tune, you have to copy the tune he plays. Sometimes, they'll show you the tune
of the music by flashing the SNES buttons or just the vibrating strings. Just
repeat the tune that the instructor gives you and it'll go on for the next 10
bouts. Once you managed to get through your lesson, you'll be promoted. Okay,
this is a chart for the upcoming sessions.
****************************************************************************
Lesson | Cost | Sequences | How many Buttons?| Buttons used |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1st lesson: | 50 D | 10 | 2 | "X" and "A" |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd lesson: | 100 D | 15 | 3 | "X", "B" and "A" |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd lesson: | 200 D | 20 | 4 | "X", "B" "Y" and "A" |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you are finished with the third lesson, you are now a full-fledged
musician. Your reward is that you now can perform live on stage throughout
the world for money. Whether or not this is useful is literally up to you.
But do keep in mind that when you perform, it's nothing like the lessons you
see here or DKC3 with the button sequences and even Guitar Hero. You are
expected to memorize the entire sequence by heart. So, good luck; you
seriously need it. = 0
Okay, if you didn't care about the music mini-game, come here!!! Anyways, if
you want to trigger another event, head to the theater in the daytime and buy
a ticket to see a live performance. Then head to your seat and an event will
occur. This time, you'll find another character named Hercules. Once he tells
you what's going on, he'll join you for the time being. Unlike Reion, Hercules
is a pure-melee character. He has no magic available; so no point backtracking
to the temples. By then, the path in the west should clear up and continue to
move further north to Therma.
----------------------------------
Therma and Hermes' Temple: (WT006)
----------------------------------
Therma
------
Treasures: Leaden Rod (Underworld near Temple of Hera)
It seems that this village has problems. The path that leads to Hermes' Temple
is ridden with monsters. Because of this, their product, the traveling wings
have come to a halt. So, head north to Hermes' Temple. But, before that, let's
take a detour. Southeast of Therma lies The Temple of Hera. Do the usual to
obtain some magic with Reion and the protagonist. Then head east to find
another hole that leads to the underworld. Grab that and head to Hermes'
Temple.
Therma Cave
-----------
Treasures: 130 D
Medicine
Hermes' Hat
Bloody Manicure (Curse)
Alright, just proceed straight forward. Once the path splits up, head south to
get the 130 D at the end of the path. You can talk to Daedelus if you like.
So, backtrack to the crossroads and make a right. From there, it's self-
-explanatory. Keep going forward and take the treasures you see along the way
and you will find another boss.
Boss: Naga
----------
She attacks you by eating off some of your flesh; ouch. It does heavy damage.
As Naga is approaching death, she casts Rem to put you to sleep. She also cast
pow to heal herself along with Trell. Just do what you can and you'll survive
the battle.
Once Naga is dead, you can enter to Hermes' Temple to get another set of
magics. What's interesting is that Reion and the Protagonist can learn
field magics. It's extremely useful later on. Then get out of the temple and
head back to Therma. Your reward for helping them is that the Traveling Wings
is now 50 D when you buy it at Therma. Now, let's travel northeast to
Driskos. Along the way, you'll find a house where you can learn how to use
your fist. If haven't done this in Knossos, you can do this if you like. Keep
going until you see Driskos.
--------------------------------------
Driskos and the Mountain Pass: (WT007)
--------------------------------------
Driskos
-------
Treasures: None Wine
Red Nectar
Once you arrive in this town, this is the beginning of the blazing heat. It's
neglible for now, you'll find the reason for this eventually. There's nothing
noteworthy in this area except that there are rumors that there is a couple
who are making scuptures had never came out of the came. What's interesting is
that they could be immortal beings. So, picking up on what rumors say, you head
to the Driskos Cave. It's east of the city of Driskos.
Driskos Cave
------------
Treasures: 36 D
Heroes Cloak
Stone Bow
Scarab
Again, like all the other dungeons, this is a very straight forward dungeon.
Once you get to the 1st T-Intersection, you can head east to move deeper in the
dungeon. If you move south, you'll find 36 D at the end of the path. Keep
moving east until you come across another path. If you head north, you'll find
Heroes Cloak. If you head south, it leads to the Stone bow. Once you decided
to get those treasure and obtained it, just keep moving east. Keep going until
you stumbled with three stairs. The one on the left leads to a dead end while
the the one at the right leads to the scarab. To proceed deeper to the dungeon,
head to the center stairs. There, you will meet a couple at the end of the
road. Once the couple had told you what's going on, they will join your party.
They are Themisios and Steira. So head out of the cave and move south to the
mountain pass. Along the way, you'll find another hole that leads to the under-
-world. But, Steira will prevent you from jumping down.
Mountain Pass
-------------
Treasures: Cerberos Claw (Underworld, Curse)
Clean Cut Claw (Curse)
Blue Nectar
When you are at the mountain pass, there's a boulder in the way. Themisios and
Steria will ask you head out to the mountain pass a bit while they chip away
the boulder. In the meantime, you can head to the underworld and grab the Cer-
-beros claw along the way. Once you are done, the boulder is already gone and
you can proceed forward. You can head to the tops of the mountain to get the
Clean Cut Claw. Once you got that, you can move east to see a cutscene. From
there, you'll discover that you'll have another character that'll join your
party. Steira is now a full-fledge character. Steira as you probably know is a
mage character. You can tell from the start that she has a lot MP. Anyways,
head south; that leads to the exit. Once you are out of the Mountain Pass,
head south and at the intersection, turn east and head to the Temple of
Poseidon where Steira will learn her first set of moves. Also, be sure to
visit the Temple of Apollon South of the Underworld near the Mountain Pass
before you go. You would need to go around the cliffs a bit before you head
to the temple. If you go even further south, you'll find a house where the guy
can teach you how to use the axe.
---------------------
City of Troy: (WT008)
---------------------
City of Troy
------------
Treasures: None
You can look around the port city a bit. There's a Performing theater in this
port city. You shouldn't miss it since it's the biggest building in the city.
If you happened to do all the lessons back in Athens, feel free to try out
the performance. Once you are done in the port city, head to the Castle of
Troy out in the world map. When you are inside the castle, you are greeted
by a bunch of people. They will all tell you that you should meet with the
king on the second floor. When you talk to the king, you'll be asked to elimi-
-nate The Dark One. Agree to the offer and take a rest. Then as your resting,
Hercules will leave your party for a while. He'll give you a reason; but you'll
have to fight The Dark One. So head out of the world map and find the wooden
horse. Before you do that, head north from the City of Troy to find the Temple
of Aphrodite; this temple is exclusively for Steira. Once you made a trip to
the Temple, head back to Troy and head southeast. Finding the Wooden horse is
tricky because it's out in the open sea. Knowing that, you take damage from
walking the sea. Once you found the wooden horse, it's time to fight the
boss.
Boss: The Dark One
------------------
This boss is somewhat of a pushover compared when you fought him for the
first time. He still tries to attempt to suck you in. Also, he does attack
your allies twice. When things are beginning to get desperate for the Dark
One, he attempts to sap away your MP by using MTake. He sometimes use Aqua or
use Pow to heal itself. You should do fine by doing what you do and the Dark
one will falter. Once that's done you are sent back to Troy. But, you have to
look for the Centaur. He happens to be on the second floor at the performing
theater. Talk to him and he'll join your party. Head to the boat and sail to
Bengaji.
----------------------------------------
Bengaji and the Centaur Village: (WT009)
----------------------------------------
Bengaji
-------
Treasure: Travel Wings Magic Carpet
Night Curtain (Underworld)
The moment you get off the boat, there will be a couple of Persian guards
taking away Kurin. So, do you what you need to do in Bengaji and head out to
the world map. If you move south, you'll find the underworld. It has a
treasure there. Move Southeast from Bengaji and you'll find a house where the
guy will teach you how to use the Axe. Continue to move east and head to
Persia.
Persia
------
Treasure: Silver Bow (Underworld) Antidote
You can look around a bit and restock your supply. The important thing is that
when you go to the Persian Palace, there's a rumor going on that the Persians
are eating the Centaurs. They believe that it'll grant them immortality. Since
you can't do much, you might as well go back to Bengaji and move dead south.
Along the way, you'll find an Abandoned Village. If you head there at night,
you'll find a Centaur couple. You can't do much about it right now. From the
Abandoned Village, move southeast and through the mountain crevasses and you
will find the Centaur village.
Centaur Village
---------------
Treasure: None
There's nothing much going around in the village. So you might as well head to
the large house northeast of the entrance. Talk to the Elder of the village.
Once the Elder found out what's going on, he'll punish your party by becoming
a Centaur. So, once you become a Centaur, head to the Persian Palace. From
there, they'll capture your party and send you to the Persian Prison.
-----------------------
Persian Prison: (WT010)
-----------------------
Treasure: None Herb
Once you are in Prison, talk to Kurin. Once he joins your party again, examine
the small crack on the top left corner. Once you examine the crack on the wall
proceed forward. Before we continue, I want you to know that this dungeon is a
sneaking mission. If the guards get you, you will start all over. So, let's
analyze the Persian Guards shall we?
Legend
------
X: Persian Guard
/: Viewing Sight
#: Perimeter of the Guard
###
#X#///////
###
With the exception of the third puzzle, most Persian Guards follow this format.
Obviously, depending where the guard is facing, he covers that particular
range. Also, he can detect you if you are around his perimeter. This illus-
-trates clearly by the "#" sign. As long you are not close to the guard or
you are not at the viewing range, you should sneak around the prison
successfully.
The first room is pretty easy. There's only one guard standing by the stairs.
Just wait for him to face in a different location. Once he does that, quickly
go to the stairs. The second room contains two guards walking back and fourth
in the opposite direction. what you do here is that, watch the two guards
walk to the wall. The moment they are close to the wall, quickly move forward
to the next stairs. The diagram below illustrates the solution of the puzzle.

The third room is quite easy. Even though the Persian Guard had magically
extrended its sight by three tiles, you can still get over to the other side
as long the Persian Guard faces away from you.
Fourth Room

This one, you need to carefully observe the Guard's behavior. Two solders in
front of you will collide each other and face to the right. Once they have
done that for a while, they will begin to break apart and walk to the wall.
Once you have enough space to sneak forward, DO NOT STOP. There are another
set of guards on the right that will move in unison as the one on the left.
Keep going until you hit the stairs.
Fifth Room

The fifth room may look impossible since the guard pretty much covered all of
the vital spots. The tiny spot you see on the left is quite pointless since you
have 3 other people with you. But do take advantage of the field of sight.
So, the solution here is that you hug the walls and tread to the left. Wait
for the guard to move to the right. When you have enough space, quickly
move to the stairs. Once you are out of the fifth room, take the stairs to
the left and make your way out of the prison. Once you are out of the prison,
head back to the Centaur Village and the Elder will revert to your human form.
Now, head back to the Persian Castle and meet the Sultan.
-----------------------
Persian Cavern: (WT011)
-----------------------
Persian Castle
--------------
Treasure: Golden Nectar
White Nectar
Magic Carpet x3
Mast Ball
Laughing Shield (Underworld Southeast of Persia, Curse)
Talk to the Sultan and jump off the balcony. Then head back to the Palace.
Before you talk to the Sultan, head to the stairs behind the Sultan. It leads
to the treasure room. Once you get all of the treasure, talk to the Sultan
again and he'll throw you into the prison. While you are there, another event
will occur. Then the Sultan will tell you to get rid of the monster southeast
of Persia. So, as you go Southeast, there's another hole that leads to the
underworld. Grab the treasure and continue your quest.
Persian Cavern
--------------
Treasure: Tuning Fork
Awake Flower
Golden Ring
Facing north, head to the stairs you see on your right. It leads to the trea-
-sure box containing the Tuning Fork. Then continue to move east and grab the
Awake flower along the way. Then move to the stairs up north. On the second
floor, you notice that there's an automated floor. Go against the flow by
moving up. At the end of the flow, you'll fight the boss.
Boss: Geras
-----------
Geras basically does your usual biting off flesh causing heavy damage among
allies. He breathes fire as well as blowing gas. The gas inflicts status
effects such as paralyze or sleep. He also spit sand to cause your allies to
go to sleep. He also heals himself using Powra. Basically, do what you need
to do and you'll survive. Once you beat Geras, head back to the prison and
free the prisoners. Talk to the Sultan once more and head to the city west of
Athens
-----------------------------------------
Therma Mountain Pass and Logosis: (WT012)
-----------------------------------------
New Athens
----------
Treasure: Reasoning Sword
It's like any other town. The only difference is that there's a bank available.
You can desposit money. You can also store items for 30 D. There's also the
harp mini-game. But unlike the one at Troy, it's basically a survival mode.
Anyways, head northeast of the town and talk to the king. Along the way,
you'll find a treasure called the Reasoning Sword. It is an exceptionally
powerful sword; but the cost of the strength is 1 MP with each swing. Anyways,
He'll inform you that you need to go to Logosis. He'll tell you that it is west
of Mt. Olympius. As of now, you don't have any access to Mt. Olympius. So,
instead, teleport to Therma and head northwest. There you'll find another
mountain pass.
Therma Mountain Pass
--------------------
Treasure: Night Curtain
Rusty Helmet
White Nectar
This is another straight forward dungeon. Just trek your way up the mountain.
Once you are near the peak, jump down the cliff. There's a specific path that
you need to go to; otherwise you'll get lost. So, refer to the map below.

Once you jump down the cliffside, continue to move forward. Just keep doing
that until you hit a dead end. From there, jump down the cliff and you'll find
the exit.
Logosis
-------
Treasure: None
Talk to the townspeople. Then there's someone mentions Daedelus who is working
on another invention back at Drad. Head north of the village. Once you reach
the cliffside, double-tap the up button on the D-pad to jump across the cliff.
There's a temple on your right. It leads to the Temple of Hephaistos. Once you
are done doing your business there, head to the town of Drad.
-----------------------------------
Drad Caverns and The Skies: (WT013)
-----------------------------------
Drad
----
Treasures: None Escargo
Talk to Daedalus on the house on your left. He'll ask you to get Aleph's wings
at the cavern northwest of Drad.
Drad Caverns
------------
Treasures: Golden Nectar
Scarab
Rusty Shield
Execution Axe
*Aleph Wings
*Daedalus Kite
The objective here is to find the Aleph Wings. You are not going to find any
from the corpses you see throughout. So, just proceed the dungeon like normal.
The two paths from the left side is a small circle, go through and you'll come
back from the beginning. So, instead, head to the 3rd path from the left; It'll
lead to the next area. The one on the very right leads to the Scarab. Anyways,
proceed forward and grab the Golden Nectar along the way. Once you reach a dead
end, you'll be presented three staircases in front of you. The one on the left
leads to the rusty shield. The right leads to the Execution Axe. Lastly, the
center leads to the laughing sheld. It may look like a dead end at first. But,
you need to either double-tap left or right D-Pad in order to get off the
ledge. Now head to the stairs on the right and you'll fight another boss.
Boss: Barock
------------
This boss is quite easy. He basically has an high attack power with some
paralysis properties along with it. Just do your usual strategy and you are
good to go. Once you defeat the boss, grab the Aleph Wings and present to
Daedalus back at Drad. Head to the inn and your Kite will be ready. At this
point, you can go to any places that has an high altitude. But the ones that
can take you to the Mt. Olypius skies is the City of Troy. Head there and
jump off on one of the towers there.
Mt. Olympius (Sky)
------------------
Treasures: *Temple Key
*Sky Caller
Again, this is another straight forward dungeon. Be sure to be careful on
this one though because some of the paths lead to a dead end and you have
to start over. Just keep going foward until you are in an area where you
can see a herd of horses. The objective here is that, you need find the
ones that are real. You need to find two horses in this herd. Pick the
wrong one and you are hurled into battle. So, check out the diagram below
to find the real horses.

Once you found the horses, you'll encounter another cutscene and you'll be
thrown down into Mother Earth once more. You'll be in a small village below
Mt. Olympius.
Hidden Village
--------------
Treasures: None Jewel
Travel Wings
This place could be your new HQ. The reason why I said that is because every
time you use the Sky Caller, you always end up in this town. There's a save
point and free inn for your convienience. But other than that, there's nothing
to see here. Now, teleport to New Athens and you can finally enter the locked
gate at the Temple of Zeus.
---------------------
Mt. Olympius: (WT014)
---------------------
Treasures: Blue Nectar x2
Herb Bag
On your way to Mt. Olympius, there's a Temple along the way. Now you have the
key, you can get through there without any problems. At the foot of the moun-
-tain, you'll be greeted by an old man. In this dungeon, you would have to face
the trial alone. So, the moment you step in the dungeon, you are faced with a
doppelganger. The doppelganger will attempt to block your path. So, what you
have to do here is that you to move left or right until the doppelganger
moves into a different spot. You can tell that you did it correctly when the
path up north has cleared up. You need to continue to move up north until you
see the warp panel. Once you passed through the warp panel, keep going forward.
On the next floor, you'll notice that the ground isn't stable. The floor falls
apart as you move forward. If you fall down on any of the tiles, you'll find
a couple of treasures down there. Once you get that, continue to move forward.
As you approach to the boss, you'll notice that there's an invisible wall. When
you touch that wall, it is a guarantee enemy encounter. If touch the invisible
wall at least once, you need backtrack to the previous room. Once you turn back
you'll notice that you are in a different room. Continue to move down and you
will fight the next boss.
Boss: Momos
-----------
To be honest, Momos is quite an unpredictable foe. He'll do a weak magic spell
such as aqua and it could do devastating damage. On the other hand, he'll do
the same spell on the following turn and its does abyssmal damage. For the most
part the damage value for this boss is quite bipolar and always seem to fluct-
-uate. So, you got finish this boss as quickly as possible. If you still have
the Reasoning Sword in your possession, use it at once. Despite the fact that
it saps away 1 MP for each swing of the sword, the damage takes away 100+ HP.
When he is dying, he'll cast DeGuard to deteriorate your overall defense.
-------------------------------------------
Heaven and The Tower of Prometheus: (WT015)
-------------------------------------------
Heaven
------
Treasures: *Hephaistos' Key
Well, this is the home of the Greek Gods. You can talk to various gods includ-
-ing Zeus. Most importantly, you need to move northwest to meet up with
Hephaistos inside the building. Once you tell him his dilemma, he'll give you
the key to enter the tower. Now move directly south to enter the tower.
Tower of Prometheus
-------------------
Treasure: Copper Ring
Silver Ring
Shell Ring
Rebirth Ring
On the item menu, select Hephaistos' Key right next to the door. If you go
straight up the stairs, you'll find a panel on the floor that resembles a
Roman Helmet. You touch that, you'll be dragged across the room. So, no point
going there. So, instead, head back to the very beginning of the dungeon, and
head to the right. Hug the wall carefully and a door will magically open. Once
you done that, head forward to the next floor. On the second floor, head to
a small room northeast of your current location. You should see a colored
pillar. Examine the colored pillar and move south. As you move forward on the
next floor, there's a huge gap between you and the set of stairs in front of
you. So, head north until you see the 3 colored pillars. Take the colored
pillar on the left. The hole should be plugged up and you can proceed forward.
When you are in the room with two sets of stairs, there are branching paths.
If you take the one on the left and jump down the ledge, you'll exit the
dungeon. But the stairs on the right leads to Prometheus.
Once you jump down the ledge, you'll meet up with Prometheus. But you need
to figure out the puzzle below. Activate the switch on the left. Once you
activated the switch you'll be presented with 5 panels. You need to walk over
the panels in a certain order; otherwise you'll get into battle. So, look at
the picture below for the solution. Once you finished the puzzle, talk to
Prometheus. From there, head over to New Athens.

Underworld and Renz (WT016)
---------------------------
Mysterious Temple in Athens
---------------------------
This is the one temple where pretty much everyone will miss. The fact that you
are used to Temples on the world map assumes that you have done everything.
Wrong, this mysterious temple is an exception. So for you completionists, be
sure to head of to this Temple before you progress.
Once you get Hephaistos' Key, you can now open the mysterious temple inside the
City of Athens. In case you forgot where the temple was, it's northeast of the
Herme's Statue. When you get inside, examine the door at the center and use the
Hephaistos' Key and a gate should open. You should see a spring. Immerse your-
self to get new powers.
Logosis
-------
Once you head to New Athens, you'll learn that the King of New Athens he has
arranged a meeting with the King of Trantia. So, head over to Logosis and speak
to everyone in that town.
Underworld
----------
Treasures: Foreign Shield (Curse)
Foreign Helmet (Curse)
Foreign Sword (Curse)
Foreign Armor (Curse)
Night Curtain
Herb Bag
Holy Dewdrop
Unlike the other Underworlds, this one qualifies as a full fledge dungeon.
However, it's pretty straight forward. Once you get out the cave, head all the
way south. Be sure to grab the other treasures along the pathway. Once you made
it to the other side, you'll meet up with another character. Like the protag-
-onist, he doesn't recall anything; not even his name. So, you have the option
to name him. Once he joins up with you, head to the exit to the east. It
doesn't matter which hole you take. It all leads to the exit. From there, you
can head over to the town of Renz.
Renz
----
Treasures: None Golden Nectar
As you can see Renz is part of the Trantia region. You can tell by all of the
objects not glorified by the Greek Gods. The only notable thing is that the
save point Hermes resemble two pillars like you see in your dreams. You are
going to see that throughout the Trantia region. Anyways, your objective is to
go to Trantia; which is Northwest of Renz. You have to somehow go around the
big hole before you progress. Before that, head East of the town and head to
the Temple of Dionysus. There, you'll find the next set of magics for your
characters. Once you have done that, head over to Trantia.
---------------
Trantia (WT017)
---------------
Trantia Castle
--------------
Treasure: Holy Dewdrop Escargo
Flame Cloak
Black Pearl
Snake Whip
When you head to the town, you'll notice that there are people talking about
the boat issue at Labat. Once you learn about the issue, head over to Trantia
Castle before you head to Labat. Look around a bit to get the treasures that
are scatted throughout the castle. There's a room on the west end of the Castle
where you can learn how to use the sword. Once you are done with your business
in Trantia Castle, head over to Labat.
But, before you do that, head nottheast of Trantia. There's another temple near
by. That area is the Temple of Artemis. This temple is only open to Hero only.
Once you have done that, head southwest of the temple and should see an isthmus
nearby. From there, a cutscene will follow. Once the cutscene is finished, head
southeast of the isthmus to Labat.
------------------------------------
Labat and the Forest Hideout (WT018)
------------------------------------
Labat
-----
Treasure: None
Yeah, nothing really noteworthy here. Talk to several people in the town and
they'll tell you that the ship builders are hiding out somewhere in the forest
southwest of Labat.
Forest Hideout
--------------
Treasure: *Ship's Shaft
This one looks intimidating due to the fact the layout of the dungeon resemble
the NES RPGs. In reality, it isn't. Anyways, head to the stairs then head to
the left and examine the dragon head. Then head out of the dungeon and make a
left turn. You should see another set of stairs due to you activating the
switch from the previous room. Then, head up the stairs to the next room. From
there, you should see another dragon head on the left. Now you have activated
another switch, head outside and proceed to another set of stairs on the very
right near the starting point.
This is where it can get confusing, the four switches that appears before you
leads to a blockade on the next floor. You need to create a path from the four
switches. So, the next pic below, I have drawn out the default layout and the
other the solution. Examine the following below.
Forest Hideout initial setting Forest Hideout Solution

As you can see the solution on the right, you only have to examine the last
two dragon heads on the bottom. Once you got it set up, there should be a set
path on the top when you are at the next floor. So, proceed forward until you
hit the top floor. There, you should see the ship builders. Once you talk to
them, grab the treasure, Ship's Shaft and head out of the dungeon.
Once you are out of the dungeon, talk to the soldiers near the docks at Labat.
They'll gladly let you have the ship. But they need permission from the king
of Trantia. So, head back to Trantia Castle and talk to King Albion himself.
Once the King granted you permission to fix the boat, head back to Labat and
use the Ship's shaft and present it to the boat itself. From there, you can
sail to the high seas. At this point you can look around anywhere within the
vicinity. But, if you want to progress to the plot, head southeast of Labat
to the town of Atlasia.
-------------------------------
Atlasia and Mt. Vesuvio (WT019)
-------------------------------
Atlasia
-------
Tresure: None Escargo
This is the town that appears in your dream. You can look around if you like.
But, you can't go to the area north of the town. It is blocked by a landslide.
Anyway, a townspeople state that the stone statues that resemble people are
down in the Atlasian Cave. Head south of Atlasia. At the Atlasian Cave, you'll
find stone statues that resemble the old man and the child in your dreams.
They will tell you to wake up Atlas by finding the three blood masses. They
are: Euryale, Stheno and Medusa. You need to find all three and revive Atlas
in Mt. Atlas. So, let's find those Blood Masses.
Vesuvio
-------
Treasure: None
Although, you can technically start anywhere on the map, Mt. Vesuvio is the
nearest place to Atlasia. So, sail Northeast of Atlasia to the town of Vesuvio.
There's really nothing noteworthy about the town itself other than the kid from
the inn. So, once you are done in Vesuvio, head south to Mt. Vesuvio.
Mt. Vesuvio
-----------
Treasure: Shell Ring
White Nectar
Blade Whip
936 D
*Stheno's Blood
Head to your right to grab the Shell Ring on the treasure box and then turn to
the left and proceed forward. You have no choice but to walk over the lava.
On the second floor, head east. It leads to the treasure, Blade Whip. If you
head on the left, it leads to the 936 D. Lastly, head dead south and find the
stairs that leads to the third floor. The rest of the other paths all lead to a
dead end. From there, keep going forward to fight the next boss.
Boss: Typhon
------------
He is hell of a lot easier than Momos for starters. All he does is biting off
your ally's flesh for significant damage. Then he breathes out fire to damage
your allies. By then, you should already have the buffering magic such as Spara
or OneMore. If not, use the rings such as Silver Ring as your substitution.
Just keep strengthening your attack power and heal when necessary. You should
beat Typhon without any problems. Once you beat the boss, you should proceed
forward and grab Stheno's Blood. From there, teleport to Driskos and take the
boat and head to the center of the lake to the next dungeon.
--------------------
Driskos Isle (WT020)
--------------------
Treasure: Golden Nectar
Ancient Bow
130 D
1892 D
Rusty Shield
*Euryale's Blood
When you are sailing to the body of water south of Driskos, you should see
Daedelus on the ship. He's working on an invention right now. So, you need to
continue to trek through the cave. In this dungeon, there's a lot of stairs
that leads to different labyrinths. So, follow my directions if you don't want
to get lost. Keep going forward and take the stairs on the very right. Keep
going forward on the B2nd floor. Ignore the 1st set of stairs. That leads to a
dead end. Head to the stairs on the left. It leads to the Ancient Bow. Then
backtrack to the previous Floor and head Northeast to the upper ath and you'll
find 1892 D and a Rusty Shield. Once you got those two treasures, head back to
B2 floor and head to the stairs north of your current location. It should lead
to the door that contains Euryale's Blood.
Exit to the dungeon and talk to Dadaelus. Listen to what he has to say and he
will give you his ship. His ship is capable of destroying rocks. Just ram
right through it. Once you exchanged ships with him, teleport to Bengagi and
sail northeast, you should see an opening containing rocks at the mouth of the
river. Destroy it and enter the Persian outpost with your ship.
-------------------------------------------
Persian Outpost and Undersea Palace (WT021)
-------------------------------------------
Persian Outpost / Dolphin Island
--------------------------------
Treasures: *Sea Door Key (Dolphin Island)
*Baor's Journal (Dolphin Island)
Once you are at the Persian outpost, clear away the rocks around the perimeter
of the area. From there, head out of the world map. You should notice that when
you are on the ship, you should see the dolphins following you. Teleport to
Knossos and sail your ship Southwest of the town. You should see a small island
the moment you use the Eye of God. Clear away the rocks surrounding the island
and enter there. At Dolphin Island, you should see Triton again. After his
statement, he'll reward you the Sea Door Key. This will grant you to go inside
the Undersea Palace.
Now teleport to Vesuvio and sail south of Mt. Vesuvio and you should see a rock
formation that points in 4 compass direction and a palace in the center. Use
the Sea Door Key on top of the sunken palace and the water will split into two;
creating an opening. You'll notice that Poseidon isn't around. So, proceed
forward to the next dungeon.
Undersea Palace
---------------
Treasures: *Silk Ribbon
As usual, go forward. On the next floor, there's a room wuth two panels. There
is one going to the right while the other goes down. What you do is that you
press the down panel four times and the right panel four times. From there, you
should see a staircase leading down to the bottom. On the next floor, there are
four panels going from each of the 4 basic directions. It may look intimidating
at first. But, it's pretty easy. What you do is that head to the left panel and
press it 2 times. Once you are done, press the up panel 3 times. You should see
the staircase. It leads to the Silk Ribbon.
With the Silk Ribbon, you can summon Pegasus and fly anywhere in the map. But,
the only restriction here is that you got to have an open space in front of you
in order to summon Pegasus. Now, you can fly anywhere, you can finally head to
the final temple of the game; Temple of Ares. You can go there by flying west
of the former Logosis. Do your usual business and you should have all the magic
available to you. To progress to the story, head to the Utopian town called
Eus. It's west of the Centaur Village.
------------------
Eus Cavern (WT022)
------------------
Eus
---
Treasures: Soothing Armor Traveling Wing
Alright, once you got your Pegasus, you can finally find the final Blood mass.
Again, this is a small village. So there's nothing much to see here. The only
thing that's worth mentioning is that there's a house on the left side of the
village where someone can polish rusty items. Bring an rusty item to the kid
and he can restore the items like new. Other than that, head to Eus Cavern east
of the village of Eus.
Eus Cavern
----------
Treasure: Scarab
Mast Ball
Rebirth Ring
Herb Bag
Coral Armor
Mask of Truth (Cursed)
*Medusa's Blod
This is another dungeon where you have to dig through the dirt. Go forward and
press the button until you see a set of stairs ahead of you. On the next floor,
you'll see nothing but a clod of dirt in your path. To top it off, it's a huge
maze. You can tread the wall and see where you are at or if you are like me and
have to get all the treasures, look at the ASCII map below you.

As you can see on the map above, you start out in the stairs near with the
treasure box that contains a scarab. Another notable statement is that on 3,
there's a stair case that leads to the Mask of Truth. Once you get all the
treasures, you can head to the next set of staircase right by 7. It leads
to the next floor. Keep going until you see the next event going on. Once you
know what's happening, head inside to Oceanus himself. Keep going forward
until you found the Medusa's Blood.
Once you leave the dungeon, Hercules will temporary leave your party. Now
you got all three of the Blood Masses, you can finally head back to Atlasia
and finally tackle Mt. Atlas.
-----------------
Mt. Atlas (WT023)
-----------------
Atlasia
-------
Now you got all three Blood Masses, it's time to meet up with Albion at the
northern end of Atlasia. Now the path has cleared up, you can meet up with the
titan himself. Anyways, Albion will join your party. He basically has the power
of Uranos on his side.
Mt. Atlas
---------
Treasures: Golden Nectar
Face Armor
This area is rather straight forward than the last dungeon. The only thing that
you have to be aware about is that the two treasures are well hidden behind
the clouds. So, it takes a while to search for the treasures. Well, there's
nothing much to say other than go straight forward. At the end of the path, you
will fight the next boss...
Boss: Baor
---------
This guy is massive. He has high offensive and defensive power. If you get hit
by his punches, the damage is great. He'll also pull off random status effects
when breathes toxins to your allies. So, what you have to do is that, you need
to buff your allies up with Spara, Guara, Taxton and etc to be on par with
Baor himself. So, sustain his attacks and you'll survive the battle. Unfort-
-unately, you don't get any experience points after the battle.
Anyways, after the battle is over, present the three blood masses to Atlas
himself. Then an event will occur. After the significant event, head over to
the Village of Eus and meet up with Hercules. Once you hear what he has to say,
he'll permanently join up with you. From there, head out of the world map and
summon Pegasus. Fly over to the edge of the world. Keep doing that until Hades
calls out for you.
----------------------------------------
Depths of Hell and Hades' Castle (WT024)
----------------------------------------
Underworld City
---------------
Treasures: None
The moment you are sent to Hell, head north. There should see a city split
into five sections; they each represent the countries you have visited. The
town on the northwest corner represents Greece. You can meet up with the
polishing boy there. The town on the northeast corner represents the Troy reg-
-ion. There's nothing noteworthy about this segment of the town. The southwest
corner represents the Persian region. This probably the most important area
simply because all commerce are all available in that area. next, the south-
east corner represents the Trantia region. That part of the the town has a bank
on it. Lastly, the one in the center has a save point. Once you are done, head
out to the city and walk to the world map.
Underworld Fields
-----------------
Treasures: Blue Nectar x2
1892 D
Rebirth Ring
Thorn Crown (Cursed)
Throughout the field, there are treasures scattered around. At the same time
continue to trek north. Keep going forward until you see Hades' Castle
Hades' Castle
-------------
Treasures: White Nectar
Blue Nectar
Holy Dewdrop
Hell's Souvenir
At the start of the dungeon, you'll find the two watchdogs guarding the ent-
rance of the castle. Obviously, you have to fight the two watchdogs.
Boss: Cerberus and Orthrus
--------------------------
Yes, due to graphic limitations, Cerberus only has one head as opposed to three
heads. Anyways, both of them have the offensive and defensive covered. Cerberus
will use freeze breath to cripple your allies while Orthrus has the sheer bru-
tality against your allies. At the same time, they also have healing properties.
For example, Cerberus has Lif; a revive magic while Orthrus has Powra to heal
his ally.
In this battle, you need to prioritize killing off Cerberus. He's the one that
has the revive magic. After you kill off Cerberus, you need to kill off Orthrus
next. Do your usual buff magics or whatever you have available to take out the
watchdogs. Once the battle is over, the moment you enter the next door, your
allies will freeze in motion. Because of this, you need to trek the castle on
your own. Just keep going forward until you meet up with Hades himself.
Boss: Hades, Otos and Ephilaltes
---------------------------------
Yikes, three against one isn't fair 1st off. This maybe the toughest boss yet.
First, lets talk about the two bodyguards: Otos and Ephilaltes. Those two are
extremely dangerous if you leave them alone. Otos has the magic called Lifmore
which grants the incapacitated ally full revive. He also does moderate attack
damage. Ephilaltes on the other hand, enrages himself to attack you. Also, he
is also responsible giving support to Hades. He uses Taxton to greatly enhance
Hades' overall stats. While all of that is happening, Hades' himself will
continue to sap your MP until you run out. Once that happens, he'll try to kill
you off with one hit with his attack. If you try to kill both of his bodyguards
he'll use Lifmore to revive his allies. If he revives Otos, Otos will bypass
your turn and revive Ephilaltes the next turn. By then, you might be overwhelm-
-ed by this. But it doesn't end here, once Hades health is at critical, he'll
command his body guards to defend for him. So if you tried to attack Hades,
one of the body guards will cover for him to take the damage. Even if they die,
the effect will still go on when the body guards are revived.
Easy Way
--------
I really hope that you have a Silver Ring with you because this will save you
some stress. What the Silver Ring does is that, you can do the same action
twice if you cast this on your self. That way, when Hades begin to take guard,
you can attack twice. Also, if you feel that your weapons aren't good enough,
you can use the Reasoning Sword. It does a significant damage with the cost of
one MP for each swing. With the Silver Ring buff and a bit of perseverance, you
can win the battle. This is the surefire way to beat Hades without any stress
involved.
Hard Way
--------
Now, if you don't have a Silver Ring, prepare the fight of your life. With only
three people against one, you are seriously outnumbered. Also, attacking once
per turn can cause a significant disadvantage. I know it's common sense to
level grind. But, if you don't have Silver Ring, you need to level up a lot
more than usual to even keep up with Hades. I really hope you still have the
Reasoning Sword with you. This is your key to victory right there. If you can
kill off the bodyguard in one turn, great. In the battle, I suggest, you only
kill off Otos on this one. As long as you don't kill off Ephilaltes, Hades
will continue to sap away your MP. There's a slim chance that Hades will revive
Otos. If he does, just kill Otos.
Leaving Ephilaltes can seriously take a toll on you. He'll continue to use
Taxton on Hades until he is maxed out. Just focus on Hades until Hades himself
begins to tell his bodyguards to cover for him. This is where it gets extremely
tough. What you do is that you need to use any items that has a sleep effect
such as Night Curtain or Wine. That way the guards are sleeping. If any of the
guard has yet to take the battle stance, leave them and focus on Hades. Just
keep hacking away until Hades dies.
----------------
Tartarus (WT025)
----------------
Treasures: None
After the event, you become this freakish giant. Before you start, talk to the
pillars in front of you. Believe it or not, they are actually a save point.
When you get out, it seems that no matter where you walk, the dungeon seems to
go at an infinite loop. With an ugly layout and vague directions, it's easy to
get lost in Tartarus. If that's not enough, you need to figure out the puzzle
to get out of Tartarus. So, to keep this painless as possible, follow my
directions.
First, the moment, you get out, head immediately east of your current location.
By then, you should see a pushable block in front of you. Unfortunately, you
can only push the block within the currents. If you push the block against the
current, it'll not budge. But, you need to figure out where the block leads to.
Have no fear, I have another map below to figure out the puzzle.

As you can see the map above, your objective is to get to the island. The
solution of the puzzle is actually very simple. The map above illustrates the
path where the blocks can move. Your goal is to layout the blocks in a certain
order. Block "A" and Block "B" has to be aligned on top of each other. So
here's the solution.
Okay, once you move east, you should see block "A" You'll notice it when the
block you see is pushable. Do not touch that one yet. Instead, move up until
you see block "B." Block "B" should have the base of the the stairs to stand
on. You need to push it down and push it to the right. The reason why do that
is because you need to make room for block "A" to push through.

Once you place it there, head back to block "A" and push it all the way north.
You can tell that you have done it correctly when Block "A" is beautifully
aligned to the cliffside of the island. Unfortunately, block "A" will block
the small intersection you see above. So, you need push block "B" down and
make a left until you can't go to the left any further. From there, you move
block "B" all the way up so it aligns with block "A." You have done the puzzle
correctly if you manage to head up the stairs. From there, talk to Cronos.
-------------------------
The Infinite Loop (WT026)
-------------------------
Cronos punishes you by seeing the same event over and over as Baor. Sadly,
now you have to face your allies as Baor as well. Your former allies will throw
all sorts of attack at you. So, to break the time loop, do what Mother Gaia
tells you: Do not fight your allies. So, keep defending until your allies will
withdraw their weapons. Once you see the event, Albion will turn against you.
Boss: Albion
------------
A starking contrast to the previous boss. He'll grant power from Uranos. He'll
attack twice causing a significant amount of damage. He also casts zap to
damage your allies and he often heals himself. When he is near death, he'll
cast ReAura to prevent any magic attacks that thrown at him.
Unlike the other battles you fought, you'll fight Albion as Baor himself and
your allies will fight alongside with you BASED ON THEIR LEVELS during the Mt.
Atlas event. So, do your usual buffs. I recommend that you give all the buffs
to Baor since he can do the most devastating attack. Once you got it all down,
just do what it takes to survive and you will win the battle.
Once you beat Albion, another event will follow. This time, the event will show
you the revelations about yourself and your allies around you. Once that's over,
you have prevented Poseidon's wrath and the world is spared. Also, your allies
will gain all the levels you accumulated during your time at the great under-
world. Be aware that even if you beat the underworld, do not go to Mt. Atlas
and revive the titan. You'll repeat the entire Hades' arc again and you need
to re-do everything once more. Instead, you need to head to the final dungeon.
You need to head over to the Isthmus of Trantia. If you forgot where it was, it
is northwest of Labat. It's the same place where you saw the baby Oceanus and
the Father Oceanus event.
--------------------------
Isthmus of Trantia (WT027)
--------------------------
Treasures: Holy Dewdrop
Flame Sword
Flame Spear
Artemis Bow
Athene's Shield
Cursed Ring
At this point, once you fall off the pit, you cannot leave the dungeon unless
your party got killed off by the enemies. So, stock up before you go. The
moment you jump down the pit, you'll notice that are a series of pits
after the initial pit. I suggest you jump off the pit from the LEFT side in
order to get all the treasures. Once you fall off from the last pit, you should
be at the bottom floor. Although it looks like a huge labyrinth, it isn't.
There are a few more treasures lurking around. So, what you do is that keep
moving west until you see Albion.
Final Boss: Albion
------------------
Yep, although you have beaten him just moments ago, he's here once more to make
your life a bit more miserable. This time, he has three forms at his disposal.
On the first form, he'll fight as himself. For the most part, he does lightning
and light elemental attacks such as Queisara and summon lightning from Uranos.
He also have ReQues to block off any stat deterioration magic spells. He also
restores his HP and MP when he is in a pinch. If you done any magic that pre-
-vents him from doing any light elemental spells, he'll cast magic where he
dispels any form of barrier on the field.
Once you managed to kill off his human form, he'll become a demon holding two
swords. Unlike his first form, he seems to summon a very potent vortex that
does a significant damage to all of your allies. If you have ReAura barrier on
the field, he'll use the dispel magic instead. Once you kill off his second
form, Albion will reveal his 3rd and final form. The moment he finishes his
transformation, he'll immediately attack your allies without any hesitations.
If you haven't use Garda yet, the attack damage is quite significant. On
average, he attacks your ally 2 to 3 times per turn. Lastly, he makes a grin
that significantly decreases your overall stat to all of your allies.
Overall, you should be fine against the final boss. The most important thing
here is that, you need to buff your stats significantly before you strike the
boss. So, for your character that have a very good weapon, it's best to use
Taxton/Spara/Onemore on that person. You can also use your rings as a subs-
-titute for wasting less turns. Then let Steira cast Garda several times to
bolster physical defense. Lastly, let hero cast Despeem/DeGuard/DeSpara on
Albion until he casts ReQues. Then once he done that you are free to cast
ReAura. This is very important especially when you are fighting his second
form. Once you are adquately stat buffed, you can take on Albion with ease.
With so much perserverance, you should defeat the final boss. Once you have
done that, head to the red panel and present the three blood masses. Enjoy
your ending.

XII. Character Skills and Temples (GH012)
=========================================
---------------
Temples (TEMPL)
---------------
It's your usual magic found on traditional JRPGs. The only way to obtain magic
is to take a dip in the springs of the Greek Temples. However, to regain the
magic you once lost, you have to level up. Please note that some magics are
learned by default.
Temple Locations
----------------
There are 12 Temples in all. Eleven of which are spread out throughout the
world map with the exception of the 12th one. The 12th temple is within a city.
Because of this, you can easily miss that particular temple.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Name of the Temple | Location |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Demeter: | South of Gortyn |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Athene: | Slightly Northeast of Athens |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Hera: | Southwest of Therma |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Hermes: | The other side of Therma Cave |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Apollon: | South of the underworld near Troy Mountain Pass |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Poseidon: | East of the City of Troy |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Aphrodite: | North of the City of Troy |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Hephaistos: | Northeast of Drad |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Mysterious: | The temple in the City of Athens (Hepahaistos' key is|
| | required) |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Dionysus: | East of Renz |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Artemis: | Northeast of Trantia |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Ares: | West of Logosis (Pegasus is Required) |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Temple Chart:
-------------
This chart shows which character can awaken their magic the moment they dip
themselves into the spring. The "X" symbolizes which temple they can go to
in order get their powers.
