Welcome back to the Final Fantasy III liveblog!
When we last left our heroes, they got a ram attached to their airship. And we leave the village to do just that.
We head towards the boulder and... BOOM!
The airship explodes and we spin around the valley, unharmed. Then we head to Canaan and Cid thanks us and head back home. We take a look around the town, talk to an NPC that mentions some dude named Desch bought a white magic spell from him. And we manage to find an Elixir in the bushes. We visit Cid, where his wife is sick. And we just have the cure!
As soon as she's up and about, Cid gives us access to his treasure trove. Inside we get a Great Bow, iron arrows, a blind spell, adding to our black magic count to 6, and some phoenix downs.
We head to the door next to the inn and meet Desch's girlfriend, Salina. She's bedridden because her boyfriend is at Dragon's Peak. We stock up on items before scaling up the mountain to find that Desch.
On the way, we face some tough customers that are hard to beat without the Aero spell within this small dungeon. Once we get it, though, it becomes more easier to get through.
Then we see a huge dragon flying around and grab us, dropping us into its nest full of baby dragons.
...Now I know why it's called Dragon's Peak.
Suddenly we see something move in the nest, and a man pops out.
Desch: Ugh, that was a nightmare. Hey, you guys wind up here, too? Hah!
And he's a jerk.
Suddenly, the dragon comes back and with no place to hide, Desch shouts out to run away, which we decide to do with a bit of luck.
After that travesty, Desch decides to hand over the Mini spell to us and we jump off the other side of the mountain. Thankfully, we aren't harmed.
But where do we go from here?
Next time: Micro-sized Warriors of Light and midgets! Vikings! And a sea monster gone wild!
