                          Part 1 - WALKTHROUGH 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

By GWS Wizard 

 

 

   Chapter 1: The Royal Soldiers 

 

  In the first chapter, you start out as one of the royal soldiers 

of Burland Castle, Ragnar. You mission is to find the children of 

Izmit Village who have mysteriously disappearing. 

   

  The most common tip from the pros at RPGs is this: Talk to everyone! 

And, that rule applies here, too. Make sure you talk to everyone in 

the castle before moving to the town area of the Castle. Also, be sure 

to check the chests of drawers. They sometimes can hold different, val- 

uable items. 

   

  Now, talk to everyone in the town area of the castle. Since you don't 

have enough money to buy much of anything right now, go ahead and save 

your game at the House of Healing and head out into the wilderness. 

Build your levels and gold by fighting monsters until you have enough 

money to buy a better wepon or piece of armor. Be sure to save! 

   

  Then, when you are at Level 3, go and head to the Cave to Izmit. Go 

through the cave, talking to any soldiers you might meet and collect 

all of the treasure chests. If you die here, you can start over at 

Burland again if you saved. 

   

  Once you get through the cave, immeadiately head to Izmit Village. 

Be sure to talk to everyone in town and you'll find out some interesting 

things. Sleep at the inn and save your game. Go outside and walk around 

until it gets dark and go back into town and talk with everyone again. 

Also, go back to the inn. Remember the traveling Prophetess? Talk to her. 

She's taking a bath? Ok, you'll go, but you can't help but notice some- 

one in the bushed spying on her. Go talk to him for a clue.   

   

  Now that you've talked with everyone, you should know what you have to  

do now. Alex, the man in jail, is the husband of Flora, the woman in  

Burland who lost her husband. So, go back to Burland, get Flora and re- 

unite the husband and wife! 

   

  After all this has taken place, you should build your levels to at 

least Level 5 and equip yourself with some better weapons and armor. 

   

  When you're ready, what do you do? Think about what different people 

have said...the innkeeper said his son disappeared while he was playing  

with some funny shoes. Where do children play? Everywhere they're not 

supposed to! Go to the sign near the forest outside of Izmit. Walk around 

in the woods and you'll walk into a secret forest playground. Fall into 

the well there and follow the voice's directions to find the Flying Shoes! 

   

  Now, don't use the shoes quite yet, there's still something else you 

need to do before you go. If you feel adventurous, collect all the chests 

that you passed on the way to the shoes...but then go down from the chest 

that contained the shoes and go to the right. When you come to a turn 

downwards, take it until you can't go any farther down. Then, take the 

right path and follow it until you come to a dead end. There you'll find 

a creature named Healie. Take him along, he'll definitely be useful! 

   

  Now, escape from the caves and return to the town. Sleep at the inn 

and save your game as usual. Before going to the Loch Tower, make sure 

your levels are at at least 7 and that you are properly equipped for the 

journey. When you're ready, step outside the town and use the flying shoes. 

 

  When you arrive at the tower, try to get as many of the chests as you 

can, since most of them will help you out. Esspecially the Sword of Malice. 

When you finally get to the Boss of the Tower, Saro's Shadow, pace your- 

self. Whatever you do, don't let Healie die! 

 

  So, you learn that the children were being taken because the monsters 

of the world are trying to find the chosen one so tehy can destroy him. 

The children of Izmit are innocent. Ragnar wants to find the child so he 

can ensure peace in the world. The king of Burland gives Ragnar a gift 

of EXP before Ragnar sets out on his quest. 

 

 

   Chapter 2: Princess Alena's Adventure 

 

  Alena is the Princess of Santeem Castle. As described by her father,  

she is a reckless tomboy who will get herself into nothing but trouble if 

she is let loose in the world. Anyway, your job is to find a way out of  

the castle so you can start the adventure! 

 

  Talk to everyone, as always, and then check out the chests of drawers  

in your room as well as the healer's bedroom to find some hidden items. 

Now, what's the easiest way out of the castle? Search the walls in your 

room. Ahh! What's this? A wooden board for a wall? Search around it and 

kick it until it comes loose. Jump out the opening and leave the castle. 

 

  But, as soon as you leave the castle, Brey and Cristo, your companions 

for the adventure catch you. But, they know you'll just escape again, so  

they join your party to see that you don't get into too much trouble. 

 

  Now, go to the town right to the west of Santeem Castle. This is Surene. 

As always, talk to everyone and look for items, armor and weapons that you 

can upgrade to later. After you're done looking around this humble burg,  

go out of town and build your levels to four. If you feel you're ready, go  

northeast to the village Tempe; or, if you prefer, stay and build your  

levels and get better equipment. 

 

  When you reach Tempe, you'll find that a monster is terrorizing the town 

and demands regular sacrifices of young girls. A man tell you of his  

daughter Nina who is going to be sacrificed. When you go to the Shaman in 

the House of Healing, he tells you that the monster only appears when their 

is an offering.  

 

  Seeing as your way through the mountains is blocked until you rid the 

town of the monster, you have little choice but to become the offering. 

Once you've done the dirty work and destroyed the monster, you can head 

through the mountains. But, before moving on, it would be wise to save,  

build your levels to seven and check your weapons and armor. The enemies  

will become tougher from here on. 

 

  When you reach Frenor, you hear that the Princess of Santeem is staying  

at the inn...WHAT?!?! As soon as you reach the Second floor of the inn to  

investigate the matter, she is captured by a gang of bandits seeking a ran- 

som. An old man who accompanied the "princess" bega of you to rescue her. 

Before moving down to the Cave in the south, gather those necessary supplies 

and take some time to explore the town. Also be sure to upgrade weapons if 

possible and to fight around town a bit to get a feel for the monsters of 

this region. 

 

  When you reach level eight, go southward and head into the Cave South of 

Frenor. The cave is pretty straightforward, so you shouldn't get lost. Just 

remember to conserve Brey's MP. He needs that Outside spell. Head back to 

town after recovering the Golden Bracelet to find out what will happen to 

the "princess." 

 

  After that incident, the desert lies ahead. Be sure to make it to level  

ten and equip yourself for the journey.Good thing there's a bazaar to help 

stock the supplies of desert wayfarers! Look around and explore a while and 

then head to the cafe. A warrior there will tell you of an illness that has  

befallen the king. 

 

  The Birdsong Tower, as you will learn is where you can find a cure for  

the king's condition. Head there at level 11 and pick your way through the 

tower. Thank goodness for that inn on floor B1! If you get trapped, feel 

free to use the RUN command and cast Outside and Return to restock for  

another try. 

 

  Because you have cured the king, he now is willing to let you travel  

wherever you wish and even beyond the borders of the kingdom! 

 

  When making your way to Endor, be sure to take it slow, the enemies  

along this road are much more powerful than they've been in the past.  

After reaching Endor, try to be at level 13 before searching the town. 

This is no ordinary castletown! Look! A coliseum! A casino! Yipppee!! 

Anyway, take a look around, equip yourself, talk to the townfolk, and play 

a few games before going to talk to the king. 

 

  When you talk to the king, you'll discover that he offered his daughter's 

hand in marriage to the winner of the tournament. He asks Alena to win the 

tournament for him so his daughter won't have to marry. What choice do you  

have? It's off to fight!  

 

  When you fight in the coliseum, you'll have to do it by yourself. So, be 

sure to stock up on Medical Herbs since you have the option of using them  

before battles. Win, and then you'll get to go onto the next chapter! 

 

 

   Chapter 3: Taloon the Arms Merchant 

 

  In this chapter, you are an arms merchant who works in his boss' shop 

and dreas of being the world's top arms merchant. Your name is Taloon, and 

you live in Lakanaba with your family. 

   

  Every day, Taloon goes to work witha lunch made by his wife, but he has 

greater dreams. He is inspired by one of the townfolk when he hears of the 

Iron Safe. When you are defeated by a monster, you usually lose half your  

gold, but with the Iron Safe, your gold is protected. Taloon then resolves 

to set out on a journey. 

 

  When you leave Lakanaba, make sure you have a couple of lunches from past 

working days and make sure you're on level three. Head north to the cave and 

start the journey! 

 

  The cave has some tricks to it, but all you have to remember is some of 

the old "Indiana Jones" tricks (like the switch of the artifact for another 

item of similar weight and the rolling boulder) and you'll be fine. 

 

  When heading to Endor, you should happen upon a small hamlet called  

Foxville. Whatever you do, don't buy any of the weapons or armor! You'll 

get cheated! 

 

  In the town, there is an architect named da Gardi who seems intent on  

staying and living in the village....strange. But, when you lie down to 

take a rest, you wake up to find the town is gone! Better keep moving.... 

 

  When you reach Bonmalmo (at level seven, mind you), you'll find that the 

king is planning to invade his neighboring country of Endor, but he can't  

since the bridge is broken. If only da Gardi would hurry up and get here,  

he could start his war. Take a look around and talk to people (as always) 

and return in the night. 

 

  What? Who is this? It's Prince Reed! He knows his father wants to invade 

Endor, but the prince is in love with Mia, the Princess of Endor. He gives 

you a letter to deliver to the King of Endor...one problem...the bridge is 

out! 

 

  Go back to Lakanaba and talk to the people again. There is one person in 

particular who has a dog that he would be willing to let you borrow. Take 

the dog and go back to Foxville. This will surely get the foxes outta there 

and let da Gardi get that bridge fixed. Take the armor that the fox gives 

you and sell it to the armor-short Bonmalmo for big bucks. 

 

  Once that is done, take the letter to the King of Endor. Once he reads it, 

he will give you a Royal Scroll to give to the King of Bonmalmo. Since the 

King of Banmalmo will still get Endor (without a war), he is happy. The 

King of Endor, in return for saving his country, gives Taloon permission 

to set up shop in his kingdom. 

 

  When Taloon looks around the town, he finds that there is a shop up for  

sale! Too bad it's out of his price range...wait! There is another man who 

will pay big bucks for the Silver Statuette...hmmm.... 

 

  Since this is just the opportunity Taloon is looking for, find some mercen- 

aries to hire in town and stock up for the journey. Also, make sure you're 

on at least level 12 before trying to enter the cave.  

 

  After retrieving the statue, give it to the man for your money and buy the  

old shop! Yippee!! You've finally realized your life-long dream of opening  

your own shop! But, the dream of becoming the world's top arms merchant  

still lingers in your mind. You've come so far, why quit now? Unfortunately, 

more than money blocks the way to success now. 

 

  A tunnel to the Kingdom of Branca was under construction long ago, but had  

to be stopped. An old man living in the half-finished tunnel tells you his 

story and his dream. If only you had 60,000 to complete the tunnel.... 

 

  But the King of Endor, upon hearing of your shop opening, orders some  

weapons and armor for his soldiers. And, your payment for these wares.... 

60,000 GP!! Your dream looks like a reality after all! Get these wares and 

then move on to the next chapter! 

 

 

   Chapter 4: The Sisters of Monbaraba 

 

  This chapter is the story of two sisters looking for revenge. Mara is  

a dancer, Nara is a fortune teller. For years, they have been looking for 

revenge against Balzack, the person who murdered their father, Edgar. One 

day, they decide to set out and get their revenge once and for all. 

 

  Your journey begins in Monbaraba, where Mara is a very popular dancer. 

The chapter opens with her last performance before the two sisters set out 

on their quest. 

 

  Talk to the townsfolk, search around and generally say goodbye. Prepare 

for the journey by buying supplies and leveling up. When you're on level  

three, head northward to your birthplace: the small town of Kievs. 

 

  In this town, you're welcomed with open arms and the innkeeper lets you 

stay at the inn for free. How nice! Anyway, after talking with the people, 

you learn that Edgar had another pupil named Orin...and of a cave to the 

west. Prepare yourself, get to level four and head to the Cave West of Kievs. 

 

  In this cave, you'll meet a man who thinks there is no way that you could 

get the Sphere of Silence because there are no stairs leading down...HA! 

Anyway, make sure you watch Nara and Mara's MP as you use the elevators. 

Find Orin quickly and get the Sphere of Silence as well. 

 

  After finding the sphere, you'll need to gain many levels before making  

your way to Keeleon Castle. Use this time to gain gold and purchase the best 

weapons and armor for both Nara and Mara. When you're on level 11, continue 

the journey. 

 

  In the courtyard of Keeleon Castle, the main entrance to the castle is 

guarded. There is a side door, but it's locked...WAIT A SECOND! Orin has 

great strength! If you put him in the lead, he can force the door open for 

your party.  

 

  When you look around the castle, you'll notice of one thing...there is no 

room for the king. Talk to everyone and make sure to take note of what they 

say. One person in particular gives you a very BIG clue. 

 

  After looking around the castle, proceed immeadiately to the town of  

Haville. You will find out that there is a ship here that can take them 

to Endor...but they need a Boarding Pass to ride the ship. Also, a soldier 

in town says he heard that Balzack was the new king of Keeleon. Stock up, 

upgrade weapons and armor, and then head to the town of Aktemto when you 

are on level 12. 

 

  Aktemto is suffering from an old coal mine that has recently been emitting 

poisonous gases. Many have died and the town is gripped by grief. An old 

man inform you that if you are looking for gunpowder that there might be  

some left in the cave. 

 

  Make your way into the cave and gather the chests you find. One will have 

the mysterious Tarot Cards that Nara, the fortune teller, can use. Not only 

are they a weapon, but they can drastically help or hurt your party in many 

ways by what card she draws when she uses the cards in battle. If you want 

to experiment with these, just save the game and go into battle right out- 

side of a town. 

 

  Deeper into the mine, you'll find the gunpowder the man was talking about. 

One of the miners says that it might only be good now to make a loud noise. 

AHA! Remember the female soldier in Keeleon Castle? She said that the counsel 

was a coward and if you made a loud noise next to his room that he'd run 

screaming into the king's room! Is it true? Only one way to find out... 

 

  When you go back to Keeleon, get ready for the oncoming battle and then 

use the Gunpowder Jar next to the counsel's room. He will lead you to the 

king's room, and there will be Balzack, sitting on the throne. When you 

fight him, use teh Sphere of Silence to keep him from using spells. This 

should make the battle MUCH easier. After he is defeated, the true enemy, 

Keeleon will appear. You can't beat him, so don't waste time trying to do 

so. After you are defeated, you will wake up in an underground jail. 

 

  Good luck must be with you...the old man in jail with you has a Boarding 

Pass that he will never use, so he gives it to you and tells you to excape. 

 

  When you get on the ship to Endor, the chapter closes and the story of 

the Chosen Ones begins.... 

 

 

   Chapter 5: The Chosen Ones 

 

  The Hero, the character you registered at the beginning of the game, is 

living peacefully in his Honetown, a secluded little hamlet that is unknown 

to the rest of the world. When the chapter opens, he is just starting his  

day when monsters, who learned of the village from a traveler who stumbled  

upon the village, attack the town. His best friend impersonates him and is  

killed, saving the young boy. He is stricken with grief, but he sets off to 

find his destiny. 

 

  Your first stop in this chapter is a Woodsman's Shack. He is kind-hearted 

and lets you take some supplies from teh jars at the back of the cabin,  

after a short stop, head southward to the Castle of Branca. Here is the place 

where you should equip yourself with the best weapons available and basically 

level up for the journey ahead. Be sure to talk with the people as well. 

 

  At level three, head to the cave west of the castle and go to Endor. When 

you get to Endor, you'll find that Prince Reed of Bonmalmo and Princess Mia 

of Endor are getting married. Nara and Mara should be here, so find them. 

 

  With Nara and Mara now in your group, build some levels and get some better 

weapons and armor. 

 

  At about level six, head east to the desert east of Branca. You need a 

wagon to cross the desert, but the wagon's owner, Hector, also innkeeper 

of the Desert Inn, has lost his faith in people. You must bring the Symbol 

of Faith to him from the cave of Betrayal to persuade him. 

 

  When at level nine, head to the cave and be prepared. The cave has many 

powerful monsters and some of them disguise themselves as Nara and Mara! 

 

  After you show the symbol to Hector, he will then loan the wagon to you 

and join your party! Take the journey across the desert, and you'll come 

to the town of Aneaux. 

 

  In this town, you will learn of the warrior Ruvas and his armor. Stock up, 

talk to the people (at night as well) and then make your way to Konenber, 

the port town. 

 

  You should be near level 11 when you reach Konenber. Do the usual, up- 

grading, talking to people and searching. You will learn that the Great  

Lighthouse has become inoperable since the flame was extinguished and now 

ships are being swallowed by the sea. A merchant, Taloon, went to the  

lighthouse, but the workers who are building his ship are concerned. 

 

  Gather supplies and get to level 13. Then, make your way to the light- 

house. Taloon will join you inside and ask you to recover the Fire of  

Serenity and to light the way for ships again. 

 

  After relighting the lighthouse, you'll be able to get a ship. Yippee!! 

Anyway, go ahead and sail over the sea to the southern town of Mintos. You 

will discover that Cristo has fallen ill, and that Alena is out searching 

for a cure. Not all is lost though, the Kingdom of Soretta is supposed to  

grow the plant that will cure Cristo! 

 

  Sail to the very far southeastern region of the continent to find the 

kingdom of Soretta. Make sure you're on level 14 before trying to make the 

trip. 

 

  When you reach Soretta, you will find that the kingdom has run out of  

Padequia Root, the item that can cure Cristo. But, all hope is not lost... 

In the cave to the south, the king tells you, there is a Padequia Seed. 

 

  Go to the Cave at Level 15 and you shouldn't have a problem getting  

through (except for the sliding floors, perhaps). When you get the seed, 

quickly warp outside and if you have one, use the Wing of Wyvern to quickly 

return to Soretta. The king will give you a piece of the root that is grown. 

 

  When you return to Mintos, USE the Padequia Root on Cristo and he, Brey 

and Alena will join your ranks. Unfortunately, Hector decides that it's  

time for him to leave the party. He will study the teachings of old  

Howden, the innkeeper. 

 

  Use the time now to get supplies and raise your levels to 18. Also, be  

sure to upgrade your weapons and armor if possible. Now, you head back to 

Keeleon Castle. Defeat Keeleon and Ragnar, the final companion, will join 

you. 

 

  When at level 19, return to Haville and talk to the weapon dealer there. 

He tells you of Magic Keys were once made by alchemists, and that they 

lived in the town of Kievs. 

 

  When you go back to Kievs, you'll learn that Nara and Mara's father,  

Edgar has a secret laboratory in the Cave West of Kievs. Raise your levels] 

to 21, and then go back into the cave. There will be a switch at the bottom 

of the chest near where you found Orin. This leads to the lab, where you  

can get the Magic Key. 

 

  Your next stop in this long journey is a small island south of Santeem 

Castle. It is called the Seaside Village, and when you get there, you'll  

see why. Here you will learn about the Sandglass of Regression, the Stone 

of Drought and the Cascade Cave. Mysteriously (or maybe coincidentally), 

all three of these things are related in one important way.  

 

  To find the Stone of Drought, come to the town during the night  

(talking to all the people again, of course) and look at the beach. You'll 

notice that a tide has come up, but mysteriously there is one spot of land 

that is dry out in the water. Remember that space and come back and search 

that same space during the day. 

 

  Now, raise your levels (Lv. 23) and upgrade weapons once again before 

traveling onto Santeem Castle. As seen at the end of Chapter 2, there are  

still no people there, but the castle is crawling with monsters! You will 

learn that Balzack is now the king there. Fight him, but pay careful  

attention to your HP level when you battle. 

 

  One monster tells you that a man in Surene (the town next to the castle)  

can tell you more about the King of Santeem's strange power. Head there  

next. 

 

  In town, go to the door (unlocked) on the right side of the building and  

open it. Inside, you'll see a Magic Key door right away. Open it and go up 

the stairs. Further down the passage, you'll come upon a weapons shop. If 

you can, upgrade here. Then, head down the stairs and talk with the man.  

He talks about a signpost. To find the signpost, walk around the perimeter  

of the building and keep walking to the left. 

 

  After you're done there, level up (Lv. 24) and head to the Kingdom of  

Stancia. The castle is located on a small island north of Santeem. Unlike  

the other towns,castles and villages you've been to, Stancia is unique be- 

cause you get around the castle by boat, not foot. 

 

  The King of Stancia is holding a contest. He says that whoever can make  

him laugh will get a prize. If you try to win, you'll fail miserably. But, 

all hope is not lost! In Monbaraba, Mara and Nara's old town, there is 

a joker named Panon who is very popular. If you recruit him, he will win  

the contest for you. Your prize....the Zenithian Helm! YES! 

 

  Another person in Stancia will tell you that the Zenithian Shield was  

once kept in Burland Castle. When you go to Burland, the king will tell you 

that the Shield was given to the Queen of Gardenbur in his grandfather's  

time. But, you'll need the Magma Staff before you can reach Gardenbur. 

Before you leave, talk to the people and you will learn that if you stay  

in Izmit Village, you will have a strange dream. 

 

  Visit Izmit and stay at the inn. Pay close attention to the dream. The  

people and places in the dream are very real. 

 

  Take some time to rest and gain levels (Lv. 26). Also, be sure to check 

weapons and armor before traveling on to Gardenbur, which is directly to 

the east of Burland Castle. 

 

  Gardenbur is a country ruled by women. The Queen is not happy when your  

party shows up because that means the country is easily pentrated from the 

outside. Just look around anyway, and prepare for a surprise! 

 

  After you've looked around, you've no doubt been falsely accused of  

stealing a Bronze Amulet. Obviously, you didn't do it, but the Queen's  

not so sure. She gives you a chance though. Find the thief and get back 

the Amulet, or the Hero's party faces dire consequences. 

   

  You should be in pretty good shape now, so just go to the Cave Southeast 

of Gardenbur and fight your way through, looking for the thief. Be sure to 

come back later and get the treasure chests. They contain valuable items. 

 

  When you return to Gardenbur, she will give you the Final Key as your  

reward. And, as a bonus, you also can get the Zenithian Shield. 

 

  After that little adventure, go to the northeast corner of the world.  

There, on a medium-sized island, you'll find a shrine which houses a king 

who collects small medals. He will trade very powerful items for the medals, 

so try to find them all. There are 32 medals in the world...just enough for  

you to get one of each of the items he offers (Ok, maybe two staves). 

 

  A little bit north of the shrine, there is another shrine called the  

Shrine of Breaking Waves. In the shrine, the Zenithian Armor waits for a  

new owner. Be sure you've got your levels up there (Lv. 27)! The monsters 

in the shrine are tough. 

 

  To the south of the shrine, the Cascade Cave awaits. Lv. 28 is a good  

level to be on for this journey. When you enter the cave, you'll probably  

notice that your entrance to the main part of the cave is blocked by a  

cascading waterfall. Use the Stone of Drought to stop the waterfall and  

enter. Inside, many wonderful treasures await, including the Sandglass of 

Regression (told ya there was a connection, didn't I?) and the Metal Babble  

Sword. 

 

  Even further south, your dreams will comes true. Rosaville is where your 

dream took place. At night, use the Flute of Uncovering near the back part 

of the tower and a staircase will appear. Now you can go meet the girl in  

your dream. You learn that the girl is the victim of a cruel gift. She has 

the ability to shed rubies instead of tears. This is what makes her the  

target of many people. That is why she hides in the tower. A slime that is 

with her tells you that the Staff of Transform is in the Royal Crypt. Maybe 

then you could sneak into the Dire Palace and listen to the monsters' meet- 

ing. 

 

  Southeast of Endor, there is the Royal Crypt. inside, there are many 

powerful monsters, but if you don't go in, the world will be doomed. 

Gather the Staff of Transform and the Staff of Antimagic and then hit the  

road with the Outside spell. 

 

  Riverton, a small river town in the south has a shopkeeper who wants to 

finish his flying vessel, but he can't since he does not have a gas  

canister. Here is a good place to stock up, raise levels (Lv. 29) and  

upgrade your equipment before moving on. 

 

  South of Riverton, there is a giant bronze statue known as Colossus. 

Ascend the giant, and pull the lever at the top....he will start to walk  

and lead you across the river to a waiting warp tile 

 

  Next, head to the Dire Palace. This palace is infested with monsters! If 

you go in and try to talk without being disguised, a fight will start. So, 

use the Staff of Transform until your party is monster-ready and then enter  

the palace. Even though you're monsters, it won't last forever, so head to 

the meeting. Saro will show up shortly. 

 

  After the meeting, you now know that at Aktemto, the ruler of evil,  

Esturk, has been uncovered. Head to Aktemto, get the gas canister and beat  

the ruler of evil while he sleeps. The battle (which isn't the final one,  

I'm sorry to say), should be easy if you're around level 31. 

 

  Take the gas canister back to Riverton and get the balloon from the man. 

Now, you should head to the center of the world. This is where Gottside,  

the closest town to Zenithia, is located. In this town, there is someone  

who has fallen from Zenithia. Locate him and talk with him, as well as  

the rest of the people. Also, be sure to upgrade your weapons and armor. 

 

  The next place you want to go is the Shrine of the Horn, east of  

Gottside. In the shrine, there is a horn called the Baron's Horn. This will 

be important later in the game. 

 

  One of the last stops for your party will be Elfville. It is far north of 

the Kingdom of Soretta, and you can only get there by balloon. Make sure 

you're on level 33, and only have three people in your party (you'll be  

picking up another person at the top of the tree). Now, enter the Giant  

World Tree after talking to the elves in town. 

 

  The person at the top is none other than Lucia, a citizen of Zenithia who 

has broken her wings. She will join your party. Be sure to get the Zenithian 

Sword, which is in the chest near where you found her. This means that you 

have gotten all of the Zenithian items and can now enter Zenithia! 

 

  Head back to Gottside and power yourself up for the trip to Zenithia. You 

need to be on about level 35 before attempting the Zenithian Tower to the 

south of the town. 

 

  Once in Zenithia, you will be greeted with open arms. Talk to the Master  

Dragon and have him bless the Zenithian Sword. You will learn the purpose  

of the Baron's Horn...you can use it to call your wagon from anywhere.  

After talking and preparing, head to the break in the clouds so you can make 

your way through the Final Cave. 

  

  The cave is VERY tough, but all you need is quick wits, a little bit of  

luck and the sense to run away whenever things look hopeless to make your  

way through. 

 

  When on the other side, you are now greeted by an eerie darkness. This  

is the World of Darkness...Necrosaro's creation. Luckily, there is a place  

right next to the exit to the Final Cave called the Last Refuge. Here, you  

will be able to save and replenish your energy. 

 

  You can see Necrosaro's Palace, but there is a total barrier surrounding 

the castle to prevent entry. But, you only need defeat the four guards: 

Infurnus Shadow, Gigademon, Anderoug, and Radimvice and the way will open. 

Make sure you replenish your health and save after defeating each of the  

guards. 

 

  After the fourth guard has been defeated, get your levels to their best 

(Lv. 38 or above) and then storm the palace! If you are at a good level,  

then you should have a moderately difficult time through the castle, but  

nothing you couldn't handle. 

 

  And now, while you are waiting just outside of the center of the World  

of Darkness, you should power up, heal yourself and get your wagon by using 

the Baron's Horn. This way, you'll have a backup party in case Necrosaro  

finishes off the first. So, head up the mountain and witness the ultimate  

in evolution....has Necrosaro evolved completely? Time to find out. 

 

  Necrosaro will go through many changes during the battle, but never fear! 

If you are a true warrior, you'll win! Good luck! 

 

 

And so, that is the Dragon Warrior 4 Walkthrough. I hope that you enjoyed 

the walkthrough and can appreciate all the work I put into it. :)

Take any of the "start with" codes...let's say you want to start Ragnar 

with both the Metal Babble Sword and Armor: 

 

The code for the Metal Babble Sword is : TEKPLONN 

The code for the Metal Babble Armor is :  TXKPLONN 

 

Now according to Galoob, you can't equip him with both. Here's how you 

would do this for ALL chapters... 

 

To get both equipped (in this case for Ragnar) take the L and make it 

either an I, T or Y so to get Ragnar equipped with both. Just put these 

codes in: TEKPLONN + TXKPTONN and voila... you get both equipped! 

 

To make this even easier, just do this... 

****I*** 

****Y*** 

****T*** 

 

Plus: ADDED BONUS! 

 

If you use the "Y" one, in some chapters you can sell that item up to 

THREE times before you'd lose it! So if you have the Metal Babble Armor 

equipped you can sell it TWO times for the gold, and then still have 

one one you to equip! In Taloon's chapter if you start with three Metal 

Babble Armors and sell them only to the castle in Bombalo you can get 

UNLIMITED Gold! No more having to walk around for hours and hours to get 

that gold!
