Exploring the World

Well, we can't get into Baron Castle, so let's just get back in the Falcon and take off. We're gonna spend today treasure hunting.

First stop is a single tree just east of Baron. There's a Small Tail here.

Next is Agart. A tree on the east of the island is hiding a trapped treasure chest with Diamond Armor. We then go into the down and go down the well to the Agart Subterrane. It's a small area and among the treasure we find a Diamond Armlet and an Ogrekiller, both useless to our current party (Luca already has an Ogrekiller).

Next stop is at Fabul. In the forest to the southeast is a Small Tail. We then head to the forest to the west where we find a Faerie Rod. There's also another Small Tail hiding here.

We head to Troia next. Rydia learns Blizzaga as we head to the northen forest to find an Ice Whip and a Small Tail. The east most forest holds another Small Tail. Another area in the forests south or Troia contains a treausre chest trapped with three Dark Sages, which is a real pain to fight. We have several Hourglass items to Stop them thankfully. Our reward is the Mage Masher. Edge just got a lot more powerful.

Next up is Mysidia. Just west of Mount Ordeals is another trapped treasure chest. More of an HP wall than anything else, the Armor Construct inside drops a Ribbon. North of this is an impact crater with a free Luminous Robe. Don't even need to fight anything. Finally, there's a cave south of Mount Ordeals, the Southeast Cave. Just a couple of items here, and a Small Tail.

Damcyan is next. We can enter an impact crater to the west to get a Small Tail. Southwest of Damcyan is a Chocobo Forest. Here we find the Chocobo spell! Rydia now has two summons, due to the Cockatrice spell we found in Edge's Tale.

Next place to explore is Kaipo. A formation of three craters in a triangle holds a Small Tail. Edge learns Blast and Rydia learns Firaga as we head southeast to another chest. It's trapped with a Great Malboro. We use Cockatrice, win easily, and get a Black Belt Gi. We also find a Small Tail.

Two more stops. Mythril first. They can sell us some Mythril equipment. Good if you didn't import data, but I'm already outclassing everything here.

Final stop: Mist. The town is covered in the mist right now.

Rydia: This mist! Mother?

Luca: Huh?

Edge: It must be the Mist Dragon's work...

Golbez: The mist itself is protecting the village.

You must leave at once, Rydia...

Rydia: Mother!

Edge: Rydia? Do you hear something?

I cannot leave this village unguarded. Not for now. Once you have freed the Eidolons from enemy hands... I want you to return here once more.

Rydia: Free the Eidolons?

You have what you need for the task, Rydia... I am waiting for you...

Rydia: ...

Edge: Rydia...

Rydia: It will be done. I swear to it, Mother!

So, now we know what to do. But how are we going to do it? I guess we'll find out next time.
