Dungeons:
      -Ea. one has different Back Floor keys, Gate keys, and Obstacle Door keys
      -Can't say anything on the atla because every time you play it (I mean     
whenever you start over), it changes.
  
Back Floors:
     -It contains various items, like gems, amulets, attack-items, etc.
     -The monsters here are more powerful and give more abs.

I. Norune Village
    
      A. Divine Beast Cave                                       
          -Gate key: Dran's Crest
          -Back Floor Key: Tramoil (use on trams)
          -Obstacle door key: Bone Key
          -15 floors
          -Divine Beast Dran: The way I beat Dran is by using both Toan and  
Xiao. First since Dran is a flying type, change your weapon's attribute to thunder. 
Then when you're finished with that, Make Xiao attack him as he flies by. He will 
flash red and land on the ground. When he is completely sitting on the ground, 
change back to Toan and attack Dran. Make sure you back up really quick after you 
attack him for he will stand up and fly away and if you're near him you'll be 
attacked.(Tip: If you are standing on the cracked floor and Dran shoots you with 
his fireball, Run!!!!! The floor will crack and if you're still standing on it, you 
will get severely damaged.)
          -After the battle, Dran will be no longer under the Genie's power. He ask 
you what has happened and says sorry a bunch of times. He allows Toan to get on his 
back, and they both go back to the village. When in the village, Dran gives Toan a 
new power: Windmill Slash. Even though Dran says to use the circle button, you 
really have to use the attack button,X. Now it's time to complete the village at 
100%. (Rebuilding it)

II. Matataki Village
         
          A. Upon entering you see a kid go up the path, Follow him up to his tree 
house. There he starts to talk to you and then accuses you of being the dark Genie. 
He then attacks you and activates a duel and if you beat him, he drops a Hunter's 
Earing.
          B. After the duel, pick up the earing and head to where Trent is (on the 
opposite side of the waterfall in the big hole in the wall). When you get there, 
the fairy king starts to talk to you. He tells you that you need to connect the 
rivers so Trent can drink some water. After he's finished head to the nearest gate 
by Trent's hole. This leads you into the Wise Owl Forest....
     
          C. Wise Owl Forest
               -Gate Key: Either Red Berry, Pointy Chestnut, or Shiny Stone
               -Back Floor Key: Sun Dew (Speeds up plant growth)

               -17 Territories
               -Dwelling of the Forest Guard: First of all plant the Moon 
Grass Seed you got and use Sun Dew on it. 
                      -Forest Keeper Master Utan:I say the best way to beat 
him is to use Goro the whole time. Run up to Master Utan and attack him with Goro's 
axe, then run. Try to avoid Utan's spinning attacks, they do great damage. Keep 
moving, but stay close to Utan because the spinning attacks occur more often when 
you are farther away from him. When Utan gets dizzy, and you can tell, attack him 
again. When he's chasing you lock onto him and wait until he comes close to you, 
back up a few and after he swings, he'll get dizzy (that's when you hit him, make 
sure you hit him on his FEET). Also when he reaches for a fruit in the tree, unlock 
from him and use a Dran's feather and run, run, run. Repeat for a couple of times 
and you'll be done. After you complete this procedure several times, Utan will 
fall. 
               -After the battle, speak to him, and ask him for help on getting to 
Brownboo Village. He will get up and move a boulder blocking you from getting to 
Brownboo Village and then he will sit down and take a 
nap.
