Village at the Foot of Mt. Efna
Written by MSG Commander
When you get to the Village at the foot of Mt. Efna, Clia leads you to the home of an acquaintance of hers, who agrees to take in Harty's father and help him recover. You also find out that Harty's father had been investigating the Desert Ruins, and that machines appeared while he was there and started to attack him.
Harty's father decides to stay here for awhile and recuperate from his injuries, but Harty is determined to get to the bottom of things. She mentions that Clia's teacher in Efna Town might have more information on the machines, and she wants to go meet with him.
The Azure Key
Harty's father agrees to let her continue her journey, and he tells you to get the equipment in the Ester Family's Storehouse, and gives you the Azure Key - now you can open all the Blue doors in the game!
Buy the weapons and armor here. If you want to, buy Clear Sleep and Remove Confusion for Harty or Clia. You can pass on the other skills; Clia already has the ones that matter.
In the Item Shop here, you can buy Element-changing Gems. Personally, I never used them, but if you want to change your Fire skill to an Ice or Wind attack, you can buy the gems to do that here. (Of course you can also get them from some enemies, from random drops.)
There's a treasure chest in the northeast corner of town next to the Inn. It contains a Ring of Magic Defense.
When you're done here, you can either take the Seabed Cave back to Atoli to get the treasure there, or go straight to the north to Efna Town. You don't have to do the Seabed Cave or the Ester Family's Storehouse in order to complete the game, but you do have to go there if you want to get every oopart and every treasure!
Treasure
Azure Key - given to you by Harty's father after Harty says she wants to keep investigating.
Ring of Magic Defense - located in the northeast corner of town (behind the Inn).
