OK. I have always had a thing about posting un-finished FAQs up.
I have always felt that people are repulsed by unfinished FAQs, and that
it is not likely that they will ever check for updates. This may/may
not be true... but this is what I think at least. :P
Though, recently when I upgraded from Win95 to Win98, a lot my
files "mysteriously" disappeared from my computer... including several
of the FAQs I was working on, this being one of them. (That's why the
intro section isn't there yet... I don't feel like re-typing the 15-20k
intro right yet. :P)
At any rate, I will do my best to make this as complete of a
strategy guide as I can, as quickly as I can. Bear with me. :P

After watching the opening cinema, the game will then switch to
the town of Parm, where Sue runs around for quite a while looking for
Justin. Then, after seeing Justin get beat up for messing around in
some guy's shed looking for "treasure", she rushes over to him and gives
him the "Legendary Armor" (which is actually a Dirty Apron. :P).
You'll learn that Gantz (a neighborhood troublemaker) has made a dare
with Justin. If Justin can't find the 4 "legendary treasures" hidden
around Parm, then Sue will become part of Gantz's gang, and she'll have
to marry him. :)
You'll automatically go to Gantz, who is blocking the bridge to
North Parm. Talk to him a few times, and he'll be "nice" (?) enough to
give you a few clues as to where the other treasures are hidden. He'll
tell you that the helmet is in a place where you "always hear the sound
of running water", and that the shield is in a place where you "always
hear seagulls squawking". So, let's head out to find the treasures!
As you explore the town of Parm, note that when you press SELECT,
the camera will zoom out, giving you a bird's-eye view of the entire
town. This is a very useful feature... try exploring the town without
it and you'll see what I mean. ^_^
While running around town, be sure to talk to everyone (people are
shown by green arrows on the town map.), several times. Almost everyone
has more than one thing to say... one of the great things about Grandia
is the dialogue... this is one of those rare RPGs where your party
members actually communicate with the NPCs, rather than you just
listening to what they have to say. And most of the dialogue is rather
humorous, even hysterical at times. ^_^
Also note that in House 2 (in the northern part of Parm), upstairs
is a man named Francois who is writing a letter to a girl named Clara,
who lives in New Parm. After talking with him several times, he will
ask Justin to deliver this letter to Clara if he ever goes to New Parm.
So, the helmet is in a place where you "always hear water
running". A river divides the town of Parm in two... perhaps it's
around there? Sure enough, if you go down into the canal, you'll find
the Warrior's Helmet (which is actually a Battered Pot. :P). Go show
it to Gantz... only two left!
The shield is in a place where you "always hear seagulls
squawking". Seagulls live near the ocean... it must be in the Port of
Parm! You'll find the shield propped out against the shipwright's
workshop. Actually, it's a Pot Lid, but oh well. :P
Return to Gantz and show him the shield. Now there's only one
treasure left... the Spirit Sword. Talk to him again, and he'll tell
you that the Spirit Sword is in the chest in his house. However, the
chest is locked... so we'll have to find the key. Sue suggests you
check out the chest, so head for Gantz's house. Sure enough, the chest
is locked. Gantz's mom will tell you that Tentz (Gantz's little
brother) probably has the key, so you should look for him. If you went
exploring earlier, you probably found him... he's the kid that took off
running when he saw you.
You'll find him at the entrance to the cafe, in the southwest part
of Parm. When talking to him, choose the second option ("No way, I'll
tell Gantz"), and you'll learn that he has lost the key to the chest.
D'oh! So Justin will start crawling around on the ground looking for
it. Tentz says he fall down into the river recently, so maybe it's
around there. Search around the canal, and sure enough, you'll find the
key. Tentz will let you keep the key, as long as you don't tell Gantz
he gave it to you. :P
Anyway, go open the chest in Gantz's house and get the Spirit
Sword. Now, we've got all four treasures! Head back to Gantz, but
you'll find that he has finally got busted for blocking the bridge to
South Parm. Justin and Sue will try and "casually sneak by", but when
the adults find out that Justin and Gantz were having a duel, Justin
takes off, and you'll automatically run to Lilly's Seagull Restauraunt,
where Justin lives. :)
Talk to Lilly and she'll bonk you on the head with her tray
(you'll see this a lot :P) for having dirty shoes in the kitchen. After
the sequence, talk to her again and she'll ask you what kind of trouble
you got into today. You'll have three options... take comfort in the
fact that no matter which you choose, you'll get bonked on the head with
the tray again.
After choosing the third option ("I wasn't doing anything! Ask
Sue!!"), Justin, Sue and Lilly will go to dinner. Here you'll have your
first meal sequence... these are opportunities to talk to your other
party members about your current situation. By selecting the sleep icon
(by "talking to yourself"), you can end the meal, but note that you
can't end some meals until you've talked to someone in particular.
The next morning, Sue will wake you up and you'll go off to see
the curator of the Baal museum in South Parm. Justin left his dad's
Spirit Stone with him recently, and now he wants Justin to come pick it
up. Before leaving, be sure to get Justin's things out of his room...
the First-Aid kit in the chest, the Gold under his desk, and the Poison
Antidote in the back corner. Note there is a stashing place
downstairs... it would be a good idea to dump your "legendary equipment"
there, as you can't sell or drop it and it doesn't have any use (the
Sword is the only piece of equipment that is better than what you have
now.) It's probably not worth it, but if you talk to Lilly and say
"Mom, you sure look beautiful today" three times, she'll give you your
allowance... a meager 1 G. :(
Before going to the museum, be sure to explore South Parm and talk
to everyone. Near the Train Station you'll find a little girl named
Marie who is quite P.O'ed at her mom because she dropped her favorite
pin somewhere near the museum. Head near the museum and search around,
and you'll find it. Give the pin back to Marie and she'll be happy
again. Then, go talk to Marie's mother, who is wandering around the
museum, still looking for the pin. She'll give you a WOUND SALVE in
return for your kindness. :)
You should also be sure to visit the Parm General Store, where you
can pick up some better equipment for Justin and Sue. Buy what you
want, but I recommend getting some Handmade Darts for Sue, a Fluffy
Ribbon for Sue, and Air Sneakers for both. When you're ready, head for
the Baal Museum and visit the curator.
After speaking with the curator, he'll tell you to meet him in his
office, and that you should take a look at the Icarian Statue. However,
clumsy Justin gets a little too close and breaks the statue! Quickly he
"fixes" it and decides to talk to the curator and get out of here ASAP.
Head for the curator's office and talk to him. Even if you do tell him
the truth about the statue, he'll pass it off as a joke, so it doesn't
matter if you do or not. He'll give you a Letter of Introduction...
with this Justin and Sue will be able to visit the Sult Ruins! After
getting the letter, exit the museum. Sure enough, the curator finds out
about the statue, and Justin decides it would be a good idea to wait
until later to apologize. :P
Anyway, it's off to the Sult Ruins! Exit the town of Parm, but to
get to the ruins you'll have to pass through the monster-infested Marna
Road.
***b. Marna Road***
My Level: Justin 2, Sue 1
Items: Herbs x 2
10G x 2
30G
Officer's Baton
Save Points: Entrance to Marna Road
Monsters: Marna Bug
Giant Centipede
*NOTE* Any directions I say.. i.e north, west, southeast, etc...
refer to the compass. The red area on the compass always points north.
:)
Marna Road is, for the most part, one wide open area with a road
running through it. You can quickly traverse the area by following the
road all the way to the exit, but by doing this you'll miss out on
experience and some items as well. There is a river about midway that
divides Marna Road in two... four items can be found on the south
(closest to Parm) side of the bridge, and two on the other side.
Finding them is easy... on the south side, search for some Herbs in the
southwest corner, 10G to the left of the road near the river, 30G in the
southeast corner, and 10G to the east along the river. After crossing
the bridge, follow the river again to find some more Herbs, and when you
reach the exit, go south along the eastern wall and you'll find an
Officer's Baton (mace type weapon).
Not much to it. Try to get all the items and battle most of the
monsters in the area to obtain experience, then follow the road out of
here and head for the Sult Ruins. :)
***c. Sult Ruins***
My Level: Justin 4, Sue 3
Items: 10G x 5
30G x 5
Shiny Shoes
Rune Ring
Ceremonial Rock Ax
Dynamite
Outdated Armor
Resurrect Potion
Save Points: Near entrance to Sult Ruins
Sult Ruins, near stairs to B2
Sult Ruins, B2
Monsters: Green Slime
Baby Bat
Rock Bird (BOSS)
*NOTE* There is a map of both levels of the Sult Ruins in the
manual that came with the game. If you have it, it will greatly help
you in obtaining all the items. :)
Upon entering the Sult Ruins, you'll "meet" Nana, Saki, and Mio...
three sergeants in the Garlyle Forces. These three will be causing
trouble throughout the game. :)
After listening to their dialogue, feel free to explore the area
surrounding the Sult Ruins, then head down to the entrance. Justin will
try to explain to the three sergeants why they are here, but being the
hard-headed, hateful trio that they are, they quickly dispose of the
Letter of Introduction, but decide to let you "off the hook" and tell
you to go home. Of course, Justin, being the adventurer type, decides
that they should go underground anyway.
Once inside, follow the path a short way and you'll run into
several squads of soldiers, the three sergeants, as well as Colonel
Mullen and Leen. Justin and Sue will listen in on their dialogue, then
when they leave you can continue exploring the ruins. Also, nearby in a
nook to the east is 10G waiting to be picked up. :)
You'll encounter pairs of soldiers along the way, and usually
Justin and Sue will stop to hear what they have to say. Otherwise, they
won't spot you, nor can you talk to them. :P
Follow the path until you reach the split (there will be a
dungeon-scope icon here). Turn west, but beware of a Baby Bat that may
jump out at you. Behind where the bat was, is 10G. Move further west
and you'll encounter a trap of sorts.. the "head" of the archway will
start shaking and fall if you get too close. If you are hit by it, you
will take damage. You can listen in on the two soldiers if you wish.
Head back to the Dungeon-scope icon and continue east. By turning
the camera north, you'll find another 10G. Look on the other side of
the stairs as well to pick up 30G. Climb the stairs and make your way
back west and you'll come to a Rune Ring up on a ledge (which you
probably saw when you listened in on the soldiers). This item will slow
IP loss (you won't get stunned as much after sustaining a hit).
Go back east to the stairs, then start south. You'll soon come to
the three sergeants again, but this time they won't catch you... instead
you'll just listen on their conversation. :)
Continue south until you reach another Dungeon-scope icon. You'll
see some shoes to the east, but if you try to go that way, a boulder
will conveniently block the path. So instead, continue south. Keep
going south and you'll come to 30G. Then, go east and north, and you'll
be able to pick up the Shiny Shoes which you saw before.
Walk up the nearby stairs to pick up 30G, then head north. By
turning the camera east, you'll see another "hidden" 10G. Soon you'll
come to a save spot, as well as the passage leading down to the second
basement. Watch out for the falling archway, then continue down to B2.
From here, go north until you come to a Dungeon-scope (referred to
from now on as a DS icon :P), then walk east and pick up 10G. Then go
back and climb the stairs to the east of the DS icon, and you'll come to
another DS icon on top. Head left, and walk onto the ramp, and Justin
will automatically jump over to the other side. Open the chest to
obtain some Outdated Armor!
Make your way back to the second DS icon, then walk off the east
side of the ledge, and continue east to pick up some Dynamite, which can
be used to deal damage to enemies in battle (only once). Continue east,
and up the stairs, but be prepared for an "ambush" by the green
slimes... they'll jump down on you as you approach. Jump the ramp and
pick up the 30G at the end of the ledge. Now drop down and go
southwest, and you'll come to another DS icon. Go west and soon you'll
come to some stairs, with yet another DS icon nearby. Climb the stairs,
and pick up the Ceremonial Rock Ax... your first Ax-type weapon. :)
From the ax, move to the south, and the ledge will break away,
dropping you down below. Oh well... continue south, then east and
you'll come to (guess what?) another DS icon. Climb the stairs nearby,
then head north and east to find an item... but as you try to pick it
up, the ledge breaks away and sends you back down again. Well... at
least you can still pick up the item... a Resurrect Potion!
Go back up the stairs and you'll notice an exclamation mark
appear. This is an "Action Icon"... press the X button while standing
over it and something will happen... in this case the pillar will fall
over, creating a bridge of sorts for you. Cross the pillar, pick up the
30G, and continue north. You'll hide from some more Garlyle soldiers,
then Justin will decide to check out the strange statue. When Justin
approaches, however, his Spirit Stone will start to glow, and the statue
will suddenly split, revealing a passageway!
Continue along the passage, and take the left path. Press the
green button twice to make the next room spin, then go inside. Press
the red button to make the room spin again, then exit and follow the
passage until you reach another door, which is also opened with the
power of the Spirit Stone. Continue along the passage and you will come
to the "Room of Illusion". Here you'll have a sequence where Justin
meets a mysterious young woman named Liete. After watching the
sequence, Liete will tell Justin that if he wants to know about the
Angelou civilization, he should head for a far-off land known as Alent.
However, in order to get there, Justin will have to find a way to get to
the New Continent!
As you start to make your way out of the Sult Ruins, however, you
run into Colonel Mullen and Leen! Uh-oh... He'll ask you several
questions, and commences to take Justin and Sue hostage, but Sue quickly
jumps on the red button, leaving Mullen and Leen stranded on a ledge.
Justin and Sue will quickly escape, but they won't get very far,
however, as there is a trap waiting for them near the entrance... a
giant Rock Bird!
*** ROCK BIRD ***
HP: 230
XP: 30
G: 150
Attacks: Rock Feather --> Physical attack on one character
Fire Orb --> Fire attack on all characters
Insanely easy. Just pound on it with physical attacks and there's
a good chance you'll destroy it before it even has a chance to attack.
You'd probably have a hard time losing to this thing. :P
After the Rock Bird is destroyed, Justin and Sue will quickly
escape the Sult Ruins. It's evening already, so the two decide that it
would be better to return to Parm for the night. Return to Lilly's
Restauraunt and you'll sit down to another meal. Lilly suggests that
Justin check out the port tomorrow to see about getting on a ship to the
New Continent. (hmm... you want to travel 1,000 miles away? Sure...
I'll even tell you how to get there! :P)
Head for the Port of Parm and talk to the sailor wandering around.
He'll tell you that unless you have a Steamer Pass, you won't be allowed
to board the Steamer to the New World. He suggests you ask Java, a
retired adventurer who hangs out at the Cafe, to see if he will give you
his pass. Go to the cafe, but children are not usually allowed in.
However, one of the dishwashers has taken the key to the cafe, and now
the owner can't get in. She agrees to let you in that night if you can
get the key for her. Head back to the Port of Parm and talk to the guy
wandering around, and he'll give you the key to the Cafe.
Now, head back to the Cafe and give the key to the woman standing
outside. Since the Cafe opens at night, Justin and Sue hang around
until it gets dark. Once nighttime arrives, go back to the Cafe! :)
However, as you might have expected, Java isn't here. Talk to the
other customers and you'll learn that he's probably holed himself up at
Leck Mines, where he lives. Talk to Miss Kirlian (the owner) a few
times and she will give you Java's wallet to go take to him. Justin
decides to take the train to Leck Mines tomorrow, but for now head back
to the restauraunt.
After another meal sequence, you'll wake up the next morning to
head off for the Leck Mines. Note that you can get another 1G from
Lilly the same way you did before... though I doubt it will help much.
:P Also be sure to return to the Parm General Store and pick up some
more equipment. When you're ready, head for the Train Station and the
engineer will let you go for free. How nice! :P
Board the train and you'll automatically travel to Leck Mines.
***d. Leck Mines***
My Level: Justin 5, Sue 3
Items: Work Clothes
Herbs
10G x 8
30G x 5
Grenade x 2
Rubber Boots
Safety Helmet
Wobbly Sword
Hand Ax
Miner's Hammer
Wound Salve
Oaken Shield
Seed of Defense
Steamer Pass
Save Points: Entrance to Leck Mines (Java)
Leck Mines (2)
Monsters: Green Slime
Spyder
Baby Bat
Orc
Orc King (BOSS)
After exiting the train, you'll find Java's house to the
southwest. After a slight "mishap" concerning Java's wallet, the
adventurer will agree to give the pass to Justin if he can slay a
monster that has recently moved into the Leck Mines... a trial of sorts.
Java will wait outside for you, and by talking to him you can rest or
save your game if needed. When you're ready, enter the mines!
Upon entering the mines, walk west a little ways and you'll come
across some Work Clothes. Pick them up, but the Sportswear is better.
Now, head northwest and follow the path. Around here, you'll find a 10G
pouch, a 30G chest, and some Herbs. After getting all these, head back
to the place where you got the Work Clothes, and head southwest. Pick
up the 10G near the large rock, then continue to the west. Pick up
another 10G along the way, and when you reach a dead-end to the west,
you'll find a Grenade and a chest containing some Rubber Boots. After
getting these, head back to the large rock and go southeast, and enter
the second part of the mines.
Here, walk southeast and you'll come to another 10G. Grab it and
continue to the southeast. When you reach a hole, drop down and climb
up the ramp leading up the other side, and pick up the Safety Helmet
nearby to the south. Continue east to find 30G and a Wobbly Sword. To
get back over the hole, use the Action icon that is in the corner. ;)
Jump back over the hole and continue west. You'll come to another
hole... drop down and pick up the Hand Ax to the north, then climb up
the left rope. Get the 10G, then go straight south to find a chest
which contains a Miner's Hammer. Grab it and go west and you'll reach
another large rock. Pick up the 10G nearby and go south and east.
Along the way, you'll see a ledge above with an item on it... there is a
ramp nearby which allows you to climb up there and get the item...
another Grenade. To the south of the Grenade in a carved-out area you
can find 10G.
Continue east and pick up a Wound Salve, then enter another
carved-out area to the south-east of that to find an Oaken Shield (not
an OK Shield :P). After getting it, continue east to the deepest depths
(erm... double adjective? :P) of the Leck Mines. In the final room,
you'll find a treasure trove of money... search around for 3 10G pouches
and 2 30G chests before confronting the boss... the Orc King!
*** ORC KING ***
HP: 385
XP: 70
GP: 450
Attacks: Fire Breath --> Fire attack on one character
The Orc King is accompanied by two normal orcs. These guys don't
pose much of a threat, but you also have the Orc King to worry about.
:P Your best bet would be to get rid of the two small orcs first, then
use your most powerful moves (W-Break is good if you have it at this
point) to quickly dispose of the Orc King.
After the Orc King is defeated, the mine will start collapsing!
Pick up the Seed of Defense nearby, then hustle out of this room. Java
will be here waiting for you, and the three will jump in a mine cart and
narrowly escape getting buried alive! Java agrees that Justin has
indeed passed the trial, and he'll give you the Steamer Pass. Now
Justin can get to the New World!
Exit the area and you'll automatically go back to Parm via the
train. However, upon leaving the Train Station, Justin decides that Sue
should stay behind in Parm. Sue doesn't like the idea of this, gets mad
and runs off. (She'll leave your party, temporarily.)
Take some more time to explore the town and talk to everyone
before you leave for the New World. You should probably also sell a lot
of the junk you have left over... old weapons and armor, etc. Note that
the inventor will give you some Coal Candy if you visit him, which
raises your attack power in battle.
At any rate... we should go back to the restauraunt and rest up.
Tomorrow's a big day! ;)
After the meal, Justin will wake up early the next morning to set
off on his new adventure. After watching the sequence, head for the
Port of Parm and board the Steamer!
***e. The Steamer***
My Level: Justin 6
Items: Cabin Key
Beef Jerky
125 Gold
Chocolate
Save Points: Steamer Crew's Quarters
Stashing Place: Steamer 2nd Class Cabin
Weapon Store: Ceramic Sword 500
Paring Knife 250
Hand Ax 300
Metal Bat 300
Handmade Darts 150
Armor Store: Leather Gloves 80
Sportswear 150
Air Sneakers 90
Item Store: First Aid Kit 180
Herbs 15
Wound Salve 40
After boarding the Steamer, run around and explore the ship, talk
to people you meet along the way. There is a traveling salesman in the
2nd class cabins who will sell you weapons, armor, and items... however
they are for the most part the same things that were sold in Parm.
After exploring the ship, head back up to the deck... but along the way
you'll find... Puffy?!? Uh oh!
Up on deck, you'll find that not only has Sue stown away on the
ship... but she has been caught and is about to be thrown overboard!
Talk to the Captain and he'll decide that the only way Sue can be saved
is if Justin and Sue become sailors on the ship... sailors can't be
stowaways, right?
The next morning, one of the crewman will give you the Cabin Key
and tell you to go up on deck so you can start working. On the way up,
talk to one of the sailors in the passageway and he'll ask you if you
know "the rules of the sea". By answering correctly to all 3 questions
("Don't be a stowaway", "Don't spill blood in a fight", and "Don't dirty
the sea"), he'll give you a Beef Jerky. Also, a lady in one of the
First-Class cabins will ask you to clean her bathtub. Do this and she
will give you a small gift of 25G. And, the gambler in the lounge will
challenge Justin to a coin-toss. I think you'll automatically win no
matter which you pick, and when you do you'll get 100G. Additionally,
talk to the lady in the corner who is worried about having too many
freckles. Tell her, "Not to worry! Just a few!", then talk to her
again and she'll give you some Chocolate. :P
Up on deck, talk to the sailor and he will get you started on your
job... swabbing the decks. It's a mini-game of sorts... at the bottom
is a power bar that goes up whenever you press the X button. The key is
to keep the power bar as far to the right as possible without going over
the line... if this happens you'll get worn out and the power bar will
drop all the way back down to the bottom. If you can manage to get a
time less than 26 seconds, the sailor will give you 25G for a job well
done. You can continually do this to get Gold. :)
When you're done swabbing, head back down to your quarters and get
some rest. The next morning, head back up to the deck to do some more
swabbing. Afterwards, head back to the cabin, but along the way you'll
find out a famous adventurer from New Parm will be onboard soon. The
next day, go out on deck and you'll meet Feena, who is, believe it or
not, the great adventurer from New Parm!
The day after, Justin and Sue go back out on the deck to do their
daily swabbing.. but the deck is already clean! Feena has already
cleaned the decks, and Justin and Sue talk with her for a while.
However, before long the sky gets dark and the sea grows rough. Head
for the bridge and Feena will tell Justin to hurry to his quarters. But
Justin can't resist an adventure, so he decides to check things out
instead. Up on deck, you'll find that a Ghost Ship has appeared!
Feena tries to rally some of the sailors, but to no avail. It
turns out that the only people brave enough to try and get rid of the
Ghost Ship are Justin and Sue. :P Reluctantly, Feena decides to take
them along. Climb up the rope and use "Elizabeth the Crane" to cross
over to the Ghost Ship.
***f. Ghost Ship***
My Level: Justin 6, Sue 4, Feena 6
Items: 10G x 7
Herbs
30G x 2
Wind Charm
Wound Salve x 2
Pirate's Hat
Admiral's Sword
Resurrect Potion
Monsters: Ghostoid
Sea Jelly
Ammonite
Save Points: Ghost Pantry
Ghost Ship Hall
After boarding the Ghost Ship, climb down in the hole to get below
deck of the ship. Once inside, grab the 10G nearby and use the Save
Point if you wish. Exit via a nearby hole in the wall to get the Ghost
Ship's Hold. It's kinda hard to see here due to the fog, the
obstructions above, and the many things scattered about here, so take
care not to get ambushed by ghosts. Upon entering the Hold, you'll find
some Herbs immediately to the right. Also, you'll find 10G around here
as well. At the west end of the Hold, you'll see a hole in the floor...
Feena suggests the party go down that way. Enter the hole and you'll
fall down to the bottom of the ship.
Pick up the 2 nearby pouches of 10G, then make your way west. Be
sure to watch out for that annoying jelly that keeps jumping around...
it can easily ambush you. Make your way west and climb the rope in the
southwest corner to ascend to the Treasure Room. Pick up the 10G to the
east, and you'll see 3 exits in that direction. Head for the middle-
east exit, enter the door, then walk around to pick up another 10G. Go
back to the treasure room and climb the stairs on the southeast. Feena
will barely save Justin from a swinging blade that comes out of nowhere.
I don't think you can get the meat you saw there... the blade takes it
away. :P
Enter through the door to get back to the Hold, walk east and
climb down the rope. Continue to the east and enter through the hole in
the wall to get to the Lower Deck. Grab the 30G to the south, then take
the other two treasures in this room... a Wind Charm and a Wound Salve.
Also, try not to fall into the hole in the middle of this room... if you
do you'll be taken all the way back down to the save point at the
Pantry. :(
Instead, climb the stairs in this room to get to the Mid Deck. Be
sure to get the 10G in the northwest corner of this room, and the Wound
Salve to the south as well. Before ascending the stairs in the north-
west corner, be sure to open the chest to obtain a Pirate Hat. Hehe :P
Once in the Hall, grab the Admiral's Sword nearby, the Resurrect
Potion to the north and west, and the 30G in the southwest corner.
There is also a save point here... I recommend you use it. :)
When you're fully prepared, enter the Captain's Cabin via the door
to the west. Examine the log on the desk and a huge octopus-like
monster will come right through the floor. Yikes!!!
*** SQUID KING ***
HP: 592
XP: 100
GP: 1000
Attacks: Suck In --> Draws all party members closer to the enemy
Shockwave --> Physical attack on all members
Laser Eye --> Physical attack within a straight line
Howl --> Level 1 Wind Spell; deals wind damage to party
*** LEFT TENTACLE ***
HP: 438
XP: 27
GP: 500
Attacks: Suck In --> Draws all party members closer to the enemy
*** RIGHT TENTACLE ***
HP: 356
XP: 27
GP: 500
Attacks: Howl --> Level 1 Wind Spell; deals wind damage to party
Alheal --> Level 1 Water Spell; heals all monsters present
This is a rather tough fight, and it is the first battle in the
game that will actually give you trouble. The Squid King has quite a
bit of HP, and both of his tentacles serve as targets on their own.
There are two strategies to use here.... the first would be to go all-
out against the Squid King himself... once he goes down you have won.
The other strategy is to concentrate on taking out his tentacles...
without them the Squid King is not nearly as formidable. If you use the
second strategy... it would be a good idea to take out the Right
Tentacle first, as it has healing spells that will regain the HP of all
3 targets. The Left Tentacle mostly uses the "Suck In" ability, which
draws your characters closer to the enemy, so get rid of it next, then
focus on the Squid King. Sue's "Rah-Rah! Cheer" and First-Aid kits will
help put you back together if you get roughed up too bad. And remember
to use your Critical attacks often to negate any attacks that might be
coming your way.. "Howl" and "Shockwave" can seriously mess up your
party by dealing 15-20 HP damage to everyone! The Squid King can't use
the Shockwave attack if both of his tentacles are missing, however.
Also, the "Wind Charm" that you found in the Ghost Ship will help reduce
the damage done by the Howl spell. This battle is tough, but if you
know what you're doing, you can win. :)
After the Squid King is defeated, the ship will begin to sink!
Quickly head back to the hall and examine the door on the east. Feena
will quickly unlock it, and outside the three hastily escape the Ghost
Ship and make their way back to safety on the Steamer.
Now, get some rest at the Crew's Quarters. Tomorrow, it's back to
swabbing the decks! (D'oh! :P)
However, on your way up the deck the next morning, you'll learn
that your jobs as sailors are over. The Steamer has finally reached the
New World!!!
After watching the sequence, feel free to take one last look
around the ship, then talk to Feena to go ashore. You've made it to
Elencia, the New World!
--------ELENCIA, THE NEW WORLD--------
***a. Port of New Parm***
My Level: Justin 6, Sue 5
Whew! Glad to finally get off that Steamer? You'll disembark in
the Port of New Parm. Feel free to have a look around the marketplace.
There isn't anything to do in particular here, so when you are done
looking around, exit out the north gate and head for the Town of New
Parm.

Well, though it's not much to look at now, I will try my best to
get this done as quickly as I can. I am planning on releasing updates
to this FAQ about every 3 days... in that amount of time I usually put
in anywhere from 10-20 hours of gameplay. But perhaps a little
encouragement could cause me to go faster. ;)
Also, if you have anything to contribute to what I have completed
already, (I did my absolute best to make sure I found everything) feel
free to throw an E-mail at me, at dalez1999@yahoo.com. I appreciate any
comments, suggestions, etc.
Look for an update soon!
