The Crystal World
Written by MSG Commander
* This is another side event, but before you go to the Crystal World, put Yuni in your party and go talk to Rick in Zingaya. If you miss this event you won't be able to do it later!
(Also, while you're in Zingaya, buy 3 Talisman of Calm, and when you're in the Crystal World, equip them to 3 of your characters before you fight the last Guardian.)
Go back to the Forest of Illusions to the Witch's house, and she’ll open the seal to the Crystal World. (Go north, east, and south through the Forest.)
To reach the Crystal World, you have to through the Path to Fura, to the Lost Kingdom of Fura.
Enter the castle and examine the crystal ball, and you’ll be back in the Hero’s world. (If you need to get back to the real world for anything, you can talk to the soldier outside the castle, and he’ll let you back into the crystal room.)
In the Crystal World, the first thing you want to do is go talk to your Mother.
Leave your home afterward, and Morst will join your party. You want to go to the cave where you had your training way back at the start of the game, but first, hit up the shops in town. (They’re finally open!) You won’t be able to come back to these shops later, but all the weapons, armor, and accessories will be available later in the real world.
The weapon shop sells Izayoi, which you need for synthesizing.
When you’re ready, enter the cave where you trained and head to the back. When the apparition appears, search the wall to open a portal to the last Ancient Stele. (Make sure to equip the Talismans of Calm before you start this battle.)
Boss Battle
Sacred Guardian
- 24,200 EXP/2,500G
- drop Rapier of the White Knight
- steal Gold Bracelet
Use Death skills (like Morst's Dark Ride) on Sacred Guardian to kill him quickly. As soon as this battle’s over, you’ll have a Boss battle with Gova.
Boss Battle
Gova
- 53,000 EXP/3,150G
- drop Pure White Talisman
- steal Kris
The worst thing about this battle is that Gova constantly uses Confusion. The only sure way to counter this is to equip everyone with a Talisman of Calm. Without one of these on each party member, you could have a really hard time winning this battle.
Other than that, he's weak against Holy magic, and Smash skills seem to be effective as well.
After this battle, you wind up outside the cave. Follow the path for a bit, and either avoid the tornadoes, or approach them to fight Ravens. (Ravens are also in the Tower of Darkness, so I haven't listed them here as Enemies.)
When help arrives, watch the scene that unfolds. It’s pretty awesome.
