~ The Hilltop Hut is actually in the Trodain Kingdom (see map below).
- But because (at the time) the main purpose was to recruit a particular monster
for Morrie, being in Trodain was not mentioned.
- The path shown by ** was the one you took through the Dreary Waste.
~ You should have already recruited the second of the Notorious Monsters in
Trodain ($19: Snap Case).

+ REVIEW: GETTING SNAP CASE a.k.a. MAN-EATER CHEST +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ SNAP CASE a.k.a. MAN-EATER CHEST ($19 on map):
+ If you don't yet have SNAP CASE yet, here are the directions:
+ ZOOM to Trodain.
- You arrive on the brick walk to the castle gate.
- Turn around and go through the arch.
+ Turn right (as if you were returning to West Trodain Church) and go along the
brown road until you are nearly to its end.
- Turn right again and go past the tree and down a slope with tall grass.
- Look to the North West and you will see the Notorious Monster, SNAP CASE.
+ HP = 260 approximately.
+ It gives:
EXP = 262
G. = 49
Drops a Copper Monster Coin.
+ When it rises up, recruit it for your Monster Team.
NOTE: there are two T.Chests: one close to The Notorious Monster, the other
approximately south East of it.
- One is a Cannibox (hope you get an Iron Nail).
- The other contains 630 G.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ REVIEW: MONSTER ARENA RANK G BATTLE +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ The best team for RANK G Battles:
+ If you haven't done RANK G, do it NOW!
+ However, this Team IS ready to do the RANK F Battle.
- They just won't do quite as well as they did in the RANK G Battle.
- You'll need to get a different monster in place of SMAP CASE for the
RANK E Battles.
+ This team is also good for the Rank F Battle.
- Particularly if you allow Hero to build at least one or two EXP levels
before trying.
- But it IS good enough though it won't do quite as well.

a lot of gold).

+ 7-1.B. NOTORIOUS MONSTERS FOR YOUR TEAM? +
+ +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
~ Both of these monsters are in the Kingdom of Trodain.
+ But one of them requires quite a long walk!
* However, you DEFINITELY NEED that one on your team!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ $20: MOPPET a.k.a. PUNCHIN' JUDY +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
1. MOPPET a.k.a. PUNCHIN' JUDY ($20 on the Trodain map).
+ ZOOM to Trodain (saves a walk and gets you right where you need to be).
- Turn around and go out of the arch.
- Turn LEFT (dodge Smiles!) and go along the road.
> Go down the slope and turn Left.
> The road leads to the bridge Yangus destroyed.
- On the right side of the road (same side as two horses) just before the
bridge is MOPPET.
> It looks like the Puppeteer.
> If it tells a story, the ally who is affected can't stop laughing for
two turns.
- It gives:
EXP = 116
G. = 31,
Drops a Copper Monster Coin.
+ RECOMMEND:
- Not really worth adding to your Monster Arena Team.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

+ $21: POTBELLY a.k.a. POTTY DRAGON +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
2. POTBELLY a.k.a. POTTY DRAGON ($21 on the map).
+ This one requires a pretty long walk, but you'll be able to ZOOM back.
- You should have time to make a better whip for Jessica.
AND...
- You should already have the ingredients for the SNAKESKIN WHIP.

+ HUNTER MECH:
- May hit once OR twice with its sword.
- Sometimes brings out a bow and shoots.
+ LIQUID METAL SLIME:
- Of six I met in the castle, I was able to beat two.
* These usually run away.
- If the critter hits in the first round of battle, you can usually get it.
* Best strategy:
> Hero should equip his sword and use METAL SLASH.
= It almost always gets at least one 1-Point hit.
> Yangus should equip his Axe and use HATCHET MAN.
= IF this strike works, it defeats the monster immediately.
> Jessica should use her whip and TWIN DRAGON SLASH.
= Usually gets at least one 1-Point hit.
> Angelo should use his Rapier and METAL SLASH.
= Often gets a 2-Point hit.
+ WAILING WEED:
- If he sings, he may make one or more of the party dance uncontrollably.
* But he may also become intoxicated with his own voice to lose a turn.
* He may sing a cursed song (curse may affect one or more of the allies
EXCEPT Hero).
+ INFERNAL ARMOUR:
- Sometimes puts the tip of its sword into the ground causing a severe
lightning attack (affect the whole party).
* Occasionally, the lightning strike causes paralysis.
+ DRAGONTHORN.
- Sometimes twines its tail around an ally and "ensnares with thorny vines.
* If they aren't able to dodge, they are unable to move for at least one
turn.

- If an ally is confused, he/she remains so until hit.
- If Hero has TINGLE (Courage = 16), he can cast it to restore confused
allies to normal.
~ When DON MOLE is defeated, the four Soul Moles talk to Hero in Mole talk.
+ Fortunately the game translates the talk into English.
- Three of the moles lift their Boss and hurry off with him.
- The Fourth tells them:
* Not to make a mountain out of a molehill.
* Don Mole steals a thing or two and his music is the pits, but apart from
that he's a great Boss.
+ The this mole picks up the harp and gives it to them on condition they let
Don Mole off this time...
~ Then you see them hauling the Boss away.
+ Make your way up to the first LEVEL to the circular platform.
- Talk to moles on your way up.
+ You'll find Don Mole lying on the platform being cared for.
- You can talk to him and the moles around him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ Cast EVAC to exit the dungeon.
- Rest then SAVE!!
+ ZOOM to Ascantha.
+ Go up to the throne room.
- Good thing you didn't wait!
- The guards are still discussing what to do!!
* Talk to each guard before talking to the Chancellor and the King.
* The guard standing behind the King says he's too nice and meetings
go on forever!
- If you talk to the guard beside the fountain, he says he's disgusted with
the guards!
~ BEFORE ZOOMING TO TRODAIN...
+ Sleep at the Inn until evening.
- You need to return to Trodain after sunset.

+ 8-2. RETURN TO THE CASTLE LIBRARY +
+ +
+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+
~ Go into the Library through the door that was licked.
+ If it's still locked, you'll have to go all the way through the castle again!
+ Since it is after dark, you'll find the Moonshadow Window is available again.
===================================================================================
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ +
+ 8-2.A. USING THE MOONSHADOW HARP +
+ +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
~ Ishmahri says that never before has he felt time pass so slowly.
+ When he sees Hero, he knows they have the Moonshadow Harp.
+ When Ishmahri asks for the harp, it leaves Hero's hands and floats to Ishmahri.
~ When Ishmahri says "Let us go to the ship."
+ They all stand gazing at it.
+ Ishmahri draws back toward the ship and begins to play.
- When Trode start to question him, Yangus grabs him and puts his hand over
Trode's mouth.
+ Ishmahri says the Ship, The Moonshadow Harp and himself are all from the old
world.
- He thanks Hero for reuniting them.
* He begins to play and you see him facing the ship and the Moon is
shining from just above the ships mast.
* Water pools around him, but nothing more happens.
- Ishmahri says: "NO! Can it really be beyond even the Moonshadow Harp?
+ You then see Medea rearing and stamping her hooves.
- Remember the book in the Library that praised her singing voice?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ BRINGING BACK THE ANCIENT OCEAN +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ Apparently Ishmahri hadn't really looked at her before, but now he does, he
realizes she is truly a noble princess.
+ He also realizes that Magic begins with a word. Music begins with a voice.
- He asks Medea to sing with him (remember his magic brings back memories
of the past and gives temporary life to them).
+ He plays and now the water gushes up around him.
- You see ghostly fish swimming past Yangus in the water.
- The Ship begins to float and so do Angelo and Hero.
- From Ishmahri's hand something glowing flows out and make step up to the
ship.
* You see Yangus, Jessica, the horse and wagon going up the steps.
- Angelo swims past and beckons to Hero and they both swim to the steps and
climb up.
* The steps dissolve behind them.
+ Ishmahri vanishes after saying he'll bless their journey on the ancient ocean.
~ Comments from Hero's party:
+ Yangus: Love a duck! Stone the crows! Blimey O'Reilly! Wot the 'ell happened
back there?
+ Trode, after hitting Yangus on the back of his head: Stop your ridiculous
blithering!
+ Yangus: ...at least we got the boat up and running, eh, Guv!? Nice!
+ Jessica brings them back to the present saying they still need to go after
Dhoulmagus.
+ Angelo says they should head for the West and catch up with him.
~ The ship is still on the surface of the ancient ocean.
+ You watch as the sparkling waters flow slowly away to gently let the ship
splash down on the present time's ocean.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ ABOUT THE SHIP +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ While the ship allows you to access many new places, you still cannot get
to quite a few of the regions.
+ Some of the cliffs are too high.
- And that's intentional so you don't go to those places too soon.
~ The ship shows on the World Map as a blue boat.
+ If there is a place for you to land: when the ship touches any part of the
land, you'll be asked if you want to disembark.
+ You can still use Zoom to go to anyplace you've already been.
- The ship will follow and will be located at the closest docking point along
the coastline to the town/place you have gone to.
- In a couple of places, that will mean you'll have to walk to get to the ship.
~ When you land at a new continent, you'll still have to walk to the various
new places.
+ For example, the best place to start out on the Western Continent is SEAVIEW
CHURCH, which is in Baccarat Region.
- The ship can dock very close to the Church.
- But you'll have to walk to get to Baccarat itself.
===================================================================================

+ 8-2.B. PRINCESS MINNIE'S CASTLE +
+ +
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
~ When you press [SQUARE] you see the closeup World map.
+ You can see an island some way ahead of the ship's icon.
+ It lies near to the western end of the channel between:
- The Northern Continent (Farebury, Alexandria & Trodain Regions).
AND...
- The Eastern Continent (Maella, Ascantha & Pickham Regions).
+ Sail to that Island.
- There is a Jetty on the left side.
- Go close to the Jetty and you will be asked if you want to disembark.
* Say YES.
+ Travel to the LEFT of the castle entrance and North to the Coastline behind
the Castle.
- The T.Chest contains a Mini Medal.
- You'll see a cow nearby, so get the Fresh Milk.

+ MINNIE'S ISLAND: MONSTER LIST +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ There are not many but they are rather nasty.
MONSTER NAME | HP |EXP | GOLD| ITEMS DROPPED |ITEMS DROPPED RARELY

________________________|_____|____|_____|_________________|____________________
~ WATCH HP AS YOU BATTLE THESE ENEMIES.
+ BODKIN FLETCHER:
- May use multishot (four shots total).
* Usually more than one of the allies is hit.
- Some shots may poison the ally they hit.
+ TAP DEVIL:
- Does the UNDERPANTS DANCE (shocks a person, lose two turns).
* It may do other dances, including the SULTRY DANCE (causes an ally to
dance uncontrollably, lose at least one turn).
- Climbs an invisible wall; leaps off to hit one person then falls over.
+ FROGMAN:
- Like the earlier Frogface, when hit once it turns the other face.
* The dark face hits harder.
- Can cast CRACKLE (2nd level of Ice Magic).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ INSIDE MINNIE'S CASTLE +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ If you've been wondering why you have been picking up Mini Medals, you'll get
the answer here.
~ When you go in, you'll see the Chancellor ahead and a Blue Slime.
- Beyond the Chancellor are two thrones.
* Talk to the Chancellor and the Blue Slime.
+ To your right is a sailor sitting at a table.
- Beyond him is a counter for the BANK with a VERY short banker (he can hardly
see over the top of the counter).
* You can deposit gold pieces in increments of 1,000 G.
> You don't get charged for depositing money and can take it out
whenever you wish.
> You can ZOOM to a town with a bank, if you need the money.
> The usual reason for depositing money:
= If your whole party is defeated, you can CONTINUE (so you don't lose
all the actions you've completed).
BUT...
= You lose half of any G., you have.
> If most of the money is in the bank that won't matter.
HOWEVER...
> I prefer to have Hero's stats high enough that it is unlikely the party
will be completely defeated.
- There are a total of three Banks in the game.
* One here in Minnie's Castle.
* One in the town of Baccarat.
* One in the town of Tryan Gully (you don't get there until you can fly!).
+ On the wall to the right of the thrones is a barred door with several T.Chests.
- You'll need the Ultimate Key to open the barred door so you can get the
items in there.
+ To the left of the thrones is a doorway to the upper level of the castle.
- Beyond that, in the corner of the throne room, is a Store.
* It is run by a Healslime.

Minnie's shoulders.

- You've met isolated CANNIBOXES which have masqueraded as T.Chests.
- You'll now meet them "in the wild"!!!
+ Other Monsters:
MONSTER NAME | HP | EXP | G. | ITEMS--SOMETIMES |ITEMS--RARELY

* Also does the weird Dance to steal MP.
* May bite.
+ Head West along the grassy area of the Island.
- You'll find a T.Chest with a PLATINUM SWORD.

- You'll only meet a few Liquid Metal Slimes.
* Strategy:
> Have Hero and Angelo use their swords and METAL SLASH (Hero's Sword = 30
& Angelo's Sword = 22).
> Have Yangus use HATCHET MAN (Axe = 19) which doesn't always work, but
if it does, it completely defeats ANY monster.
> Have Jessica use TWIN DRAGON SLASH (Whips = 23).
+ Go up the slope as far as you can, then head west as far as you can.
- The T.Chest is actually a mimic, but it gives 128 EXP so is worth fighting.

Island.

~ Nasty Tricks.
+ Individual MAGIC DUMBELLS are easy but they tend to turn up in groups of five
or more.

damage against the allies as possible.

turns).

+ JAB, BER, KEE, WOC:
- BER defends by pulling its head, arms and feet inside its body.
- JAB restores life.
- KEE & WOK fight.
- The four critters, under the direction of JAB unite to form:
* The JABBERWOKEE.
> The four on their own have a total of 315 HP (vs. 645) so are easier to
defeat.
> On the other hand, the four only give a total of 274 EXP (vs. 318).
> When combined, KEE & WOK combine to hit; if its a critical hit, LOOK OUT.
- The combined hit, if also a critical hit, takes out 175 damage.

Battle Records.

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ BATTLE RECORDS MENU +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ In the top left area of the screen are three choices:
Defeated Monster List.
Collected Item List.
Alchemy Recipe Book.
+ On the left side of the screen are a number of stats:
- Time:
* This is the total amount of time you have spent playing this particular
saved game.
* Does not include any time spent on a different game.
- Distance Travelled:
* The distance is measured in miles and tenths of miles.
* It is loW compared with what you might expect.
> Mine was 135.7 and I had travelled in the ship all the way round the
Eastern Continent.
> This suggests that the World in the game is smaller than you might think.
- Other data:
* The number of Battles Fought.
* The number of Monsters Defeated.
* The number of Monsters Intimidated.
* The number of Victories.
> In my statistics, the number of Battles was 6 more than the number of
Victories.
> At first I was puzzled as I hadn't lost any battles.
> The I remembered I had fought Monster Arena Battles in RANK G & Rank F
(totalled 6 Battles).
> So the monster Arena battles are included in the number of Battles fought
but NOT in the victories (even though my Team won all 6 battles).
> I guess, it is only the Battles which Hero fights included in the
Victories total?!?!
* The number of Times Fled.
* The number of Times Wiped Out.
* Max Damage in any turn (of a battle): The total damage, and the monster.
* Total of Gold obtained.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ DEFEATED MONSTER LIST +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ If you select the first item in the Battle Records list:
+ You get a choice of three:
- View All Monsters:
* This lists the monsters in numerical order.
> The number for each monster in this list is the same as the number given
with each monster's description in this set of FAQs.
- View by Habitat:
* You are shown a map of the world divided by region.
* At this point, you have only visited two of the continents.
* In each region are two (or more) colored circles.
> Red indicates the region itself.
> Blue indicates a dungeon.
* Selecting any of the circles let's you access a list of monsters for that
region.
> If there are ???? in one of the slots, that indicates that you haven't
defeated that monster.
= For example, In my Trodain List, although I had met a Liquid Metal
Slime, it always fled so ???? was in its field in my list.
= So I went back to Trodain and succeeded in defeating it and the critter
now appeared on the list.
* NOTE: If you defeat a monster in one region, it will be listed in every
region/habitat that that monster appears in.
* NOTE ALSO: The "Ocean" is a red dot in the bottom Left corner of the Map.
* The difference between the Habitat Map and the World Map:
> The colors in the World Map are reversed:
Red = Dungeons.
Blue = Towns.
- View by family.
* The monster are listed by the family they belong to.
> There is an icon beside their name.
> This helps in putting your Monster Team together as, if you use critters
from the same family in Monster Arena Battles, you access a Deathmove!
+ Whichever list you access, you can press [X] on any critter in the list to
find out:
- How much EXP and Gold they give.
- How many of that monster you have defeated.
- What items they have dropped.
* ???? means they have not dropped anything so far.
* There may be one line or two, depending on whether they have dropped
either a commonly dropped and/or a rarely dropped item.

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ When you choose this list, you get the following choices:
All Recipes
Incomplete Recipes
Weapons
Armour
Shields
Helmets
Accessories
Items
~ Choosing any of the items on the lists allows you to check what recipes you
have found (or used) in the indicated category.
+ Whenever you see something colored green, it is a clue to the item but the
proper name for that item is not known.
- For example, in Trodain's Library, one recipe is:
"Healthy Cheese" = Plain Cheese + "a healing item"
* Both "Healthy Cheese" and "a healing item" were colored green.
- The only way to discover the proper name for "Healthy Cheese" is to make
it in the Alchemy Pot.
- The only way (since you don't know the proper name for the cheese) to find
out the ingredient "a healing item" is by experimenting.
* Possible healing items:
Medicinal Herb
Strong Medicine
Strong Antidote
Amor Seco Essence
- I tried several times to make this cheese.
* Each try, I placed one of the items listed above + Plain Cheese.
* For the first three on the list, the Alchemy Pot popped its lid and
returned the items to the Item Bag.
* But when I put the Amor Seco Essence + Plain Cheese, the recipe worked.
- The "Mild Cheese" was made.
* In the recipe, "Healthy Cheese" was replaced with "Mild Cheese" (in black).
AND...
* "a healing item" was replaced with "Amor Seco Essence" (in black).
+ The Library warned that not all recipes are worth using.
- Another recipe in the Library was:
* "A Blunt Axe" = Iron Axe + Gold Nugget.
- You might think this was one of the recipes you were warned about.
HOWEVER...
- The Blunt Axe is really the GOLDEN AXE.
* It sells for 5,000 G (same amount the Gold Nugget sells for.
- The GOLDEN AXE can be used in the Alchemy Pot to make:
* The MOON AXE ... One is in a T.Chest in Argonia; sells for 11,000 G.
OR...
* The KING AXE ... You can buy one in Orkutsk & Tryan Gully for 17,000 G.
bUT IT SELLS FOR ONLY 8,500 G.
- So it can be productive to make the Blunt Axe!!!
~ When you are looking at a recipe in the list:

about the recipe ingredients.

+ TRAVEL TO FELIX CHATEAU ($33) +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ Start down the road FROM SEAVIEW CHURCH, stopping to get Fresh Milk from the cow.
+ The cow seems rather playful!!!
+ You may notice a T.Chest south of the Cow, on the other side of the river.
- That's one of the goals in this section of the FAQ.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ As you follow the road, you come to a bridge guarded by a Notorious Monster:
+ $33: FOUL FOWL a.k.a. RAGING ROOSTER.
- It may scream which could shock one or more of the allies (miss one or two
turns).
HP = 390 approximately
Gives EXP = 181
G. = 33
Drops a Copper Coin.
+ Decide if you want to add him to your reserves...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ Continue on the road until you see the town of Baccarat.
+ You have to go around a pond.
+ REMEMBER YOU ARE ON A TIMED SCHEDULE.
+ TO GET BACCARAT ON THE ZOOM MENU...
- The entrance to the town shows as steps.
- You DON'T have to go right into town.
> When you enter, Hero just goes up the steps partway.
- As soon as he stops, turn around and go out again.
~ Go back to the road and continue along it.
+ When you're on the other side of the pond, check the world map.
+ If you go uphill, cross the road between Baccarat and Chateau Felix.
- Take the side-road to enter Chateau Felix.
* You'll find a lot of cats both outside and inside the Chateau's grounds.
* The Chateau is in the form of a giant Sabrecat, claws and all.
> The door is between its forepaws.
- You need to talk to Felix, but Tom won't let you in until you have answered
three questions.
* The answers are multiple choice with three possible answers.
- To get past Tom, choose the second answer to each of the three questions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ FELIX AND HIS PROBLEM +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ When you go inside the Chateau, you pass between two cages with a Sabrecat in
each one.
+ Felix is at his desk and just above his head is the head of a sabrecat (he
seems to be cat-mad).
- At first he is busy (be patient).
+ Talk to him and in a round-about way he'll tell you he has a friend BAUMREN
who is lost and needs help.
- Felix's responsibilities prevent him from helping his friends.
- Accept the assignment.
+ He says the Baumren can be found close by a strange tree.
- Ignore the four Sabrecat statues (you don't have the time to examine them).
* And you don't need to either.
+ He gives you a bottle containing the SAND OF ETERNITY which you are to use
to help Baumren.
WARNING!
THE TREE IS ONLY VISIBLE FOR A SHORT TIME AT DAWN...
YOU NEED FASTER TRANSPORT THAN JUST WALKING TO MAKE IT IN TIME...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ RIDING A SABRECAT +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ When you have finished talking to the Felix, go back outside the building.
+ You'll find Tom standing beside a sabrecat.
+ Talk to him and he'll allow you to ride it.

THAT SENDS THE SABRECAT AWAY....
~ You CAN use the following keys:
+ [SQUARE] = the World Map.
+ [CIRCLE] = The Main Menu.
+ [X] = When you are beside a T.Chest.
+ BUT KEEP YOUR THUMB AWAY FROM THE [TRIANGLE] KEY!!!!
~ You'll still have Battles and that's okay.
+ That's allowed for in the time you have.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ FIRST: GET THE NOTORIOUS MONSTER ($34) +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

- The road will pass alongside a large pond.
- Head North around this pond.
- You'll pass a Cow (ignore it for now).
+ You'll come to a second bridge.
- cross it and (the path is winding) go more-or-less North.
+ You'll pass a third bridge (to the right) but DON'T cross it, just continue
North as close to the river as possible.
~ KEEP CHECKING THE WORLD MAP.
+ YOU'RE HEADING FOR THE POINT OF LAND JUST TO THE SOUTH OF SEAVIEW CHURCH.

across the river.
+ About now, it will become night.

Jumping Jackal
Battle Beetle
Puppet Player
Treevil
+ The T.Chest contains 800 G.

+ It is a blue orc.
HP = 360 approximately
Gives EXP = 151
G. = 40
Drops a Copper Monster Coin.
+ IT IS WORTH WHILE RECRUITING THIS ONE.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ SECOND: RESCUE BAUMREN +
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
~ As soon as you have defeated ORCUS, head back the way you came.
+ You'll pas the bridge (its on the left now).
- Keep going South until you get to the next bridge.

--
- Turn right and go down into the hollow at the place marked '--' on the
map above.

- You'll see a ghostly blue sabrecat.
NOTE 1: If it isn't quite dawn, circle INSIDE THE HOLLOW until Baumren
appears.
NOTE 2: If it is past dawn, go back to Baccarat and sleep (until evening) at
the Inn (it's inside the door opposite the entrance to the town).
- You can go back to Chateau Felix and get another Sabrecat to ride.
- Then return to the hollow and circle INSIDE THE HOLLOW until the
Tree and Baumren appear (fight battles as needed).
+ Talk to BAUMREN and "use" the SAND OF ETERNITY.
- Baumren realizes that he needs to move on (he has been circling the tree,
lost to the fact that he had died).
- He moves up a path of blue light that formed from the Sand of Eternity
and disappears.
~ Zoom back to Chateau Felix and talk to Felix again.
+ He tells you the strange Tree is the TREE OF STYX.
- "Innings" comes from the British game called Cricket and refers to the when
one team has the bat and score.
- When "your innings are over" the game is done.
+ Baumren was the first Sabrecat to "open his heart" to Felix.
- He makes Hero a member of the Great Sabrecat Trust.
- He gives him a bell and calls it BAUMREN'S BELL.
+ Use the Bell when you want to summon a Sabrecat to ride.
