OK, it's time for Edward and the guards to head to the Impact Crater
Edward: (What's happened here? Is she... Could Harley really be all right...?)
We're on the other side of the crater compared to Yang and Gekkou, so this is basically a new dungeon. There's no jumping puzzles on this half, it's really quite linear. There's a healing pot right near the entrance. The path eventually leads us to some Iron Armor and also a soldier walking around.
Soldier: Ah! My lord!
Edward: Oh, thank goodness! Are you all right?
Soldier: Yes, sir! I apologize for worrying you. Our investigation has encountered numerous snags.
Edward: Where is Harley?
Soldier: Straight ahead, my lord.
We proceed southeast to the Middle Wall. We find a Beret here, which is an improvement for anyone, but we don't want to waste the good stuff on the guards, so Edward gets it. It gives him a nice Defence and Magic Defence boost.
There's another soldier down here, too.
Soldier: Your Highness! What brings you here, my lord?
Edward: I was getting a tad antsy, sitting around waiting for you.
Soldier: It is too dangerous for you to be here, sir!
Edward: Oh, I'm quite all right. If you can survive this, I certainly can. Is Harley up ahead?
Soldier: Yes, my lord. She ignored our pleas and proceeded further.
Further, of course, means to the Lower Wall. We continue down the path and see Harley up ahead.
Harley: What could this substance possibly be composed of? ...It is as if the earth itself has putrefied. Could this have come from the moon?
There's a Save Point ahead, but we don't have any Tents. Of course, the next treasure chest then gives us one. We go and talk to Harley.
Harley: Your Highness!?
Edward: I told you coming here would be dangerous.
Harley: I deeply apologize for worrying you, my lord... ...but this is no ordinary meteor we are dealing with.
Edward: It certainly seems that way.
Harley: Something beyond our comprehension has landed here. That is the only conclusion I can make.
Edward: The moon... Something must be going on up there.
Harley: But why did you come here, Your Highness?
Edward: I just wanted to see the crash site with my own eyes. We had best return to Damcyan, Harley. This should be enough investigating for now.
Harley: But... My lord...
Edward: The messenger from Baron should be back by now. Let us return to the castle.
Harley: Yes, Your Highness.
And then she joins our party.
Harley
Class: Secretary
Ladies and gentlemen, the worst player character that can go to endgame. Piercing Sight adds a new weakness to the enemy which really isn't needed, and Gil Toss costs too much for too little damage. Making this worse is she has mage stats, but no magic (Piercing Sight may count as magic, not sure), making the stats that she wants horrid. Awful doesn't begin to describe this one.
There's a Bronze Tail hiding in some steam here, and then we start backtracking outta here.
There's on band to learn. Combining Bardsong and Gil Toss will make Edward and Harley perform Feast of the Land, which is a group heal that is really powerful compared to Bardsong heals. It doesn't cost any Gil, as using Gil Toss would imply, but it has a cost of 20 MP, which is pretty steep for these two.
We make it back up to the Upper Wall and start to head out.
Harley: Your Highness!
Edward: Hmm?
A Baron Airship heads towards Damcyan.
Edward: The Red Wings!
Harley: Perhaps they are bringing back our messenger.
Edward: I can only hope so...
Harley: Pardon...?
Edward: We must hurry. The sight of the airship discomforts me.
We head out. Next time, we'll head back to Damcyan.
