Chapter 7 The Legend of the Holy Dragons
The Resistance has successfully rescued Yoyo, who now suddenly needs to talk
to the queen of Campbell about a legend involving the Holy Dragons. This
chapter is a little longer than usual, and translation-wise it's one of my
weaker chapters.
|
When you can walk around, talk to Anastasia. Tell her you'll ask Hornet what he likes,
then go ask him. Then come back to her and tell her. You can choose either what
he likes or what he hates. I'm not 100% sure of what the importance of this is
but I know Ectarina says different stuff throughout the game depending on your
choice. There may be other things affected too.
|
Be sure to check Sendak's room for stuff. Check the cabinet and his bed.
|
In the men's bedroom, talk to Gunso. You'll get a Gunso's ???. These aren't all that great,
but they do revert your dragons back to crappy dragons real easily, so maybe if
you want to have a dragon take a different evolutional path, you should have a couple
of these.
|
Starting from this chapter, Bikkebakke sells mushrooms and other stuff. Mushrooms
can raise multiple dragon stats at once, so a buying a couple wouldn't hurt. Plus
they can be decent for use in battles too.
|
More of the usual - equipment buying and dragon feeding. Your dragons should
hopefully be coming along well now.
|
Back inside, Hornet tells you to take off from the Dragonkeeper's place, so
go back outside and talk to him when you want to get the next battle scenario
started.
|
This battle isn't too bad. Just make sure not to stand in front of the auto-cannons,
and break them with thunder magic/techs if you want. Remember that you can
break castle walls with thunder. You should be all right if you don't try to
go too fast. Your objective is to take out Zomberd, who's back again. You'll
have to kill most of the enemies to get to him, though.
If you're lucky, you'll find the semi-secret "Presenter" enemy here. Usually
they only come out when something has been destroyed by thunder techs. If you've
played other Square games, then you should probably recognize them...
|
By the end of the scenario, things will probably get really crowded. Make sure
to take out the cure-magic mages that hang around Zomberd, and if you see an enemy
hanging around in a building or a castle wall, blow up the structure or wall
with thunder techs. Can't let the enemy get a lot of free HP like that.
|
Now that you've liberated Campbell, it's time to see the queen. On the way to
castle, be sure to check all the boxes and barrels. There are a lot of hidden items in this
town.
|
After you talk to the queen and leave the castle, go to the house in the upper right.
Talk to Bikkebakke, the old guy, then Bikkebakke again. Tell Bikkebakke to give
the old guy his money. You'll see why later in the game.
|
In one of the buildings on the left, Matelite and his cohorts are selling
"Matelite brand" axes and armor. The stuff is real strong. It's also excellent
food for dragons. It's pretty expensive so you probably can't buy a whole lot
right now, but stock up on some anyway.
|
Talk to Sendak in the pub, then go upstairs. Wake up the sleeping guy by hitting
him. Stuff happens and you'll get a new party member, and a new dragon! Give
the dragon a name. It goes without saying that you'll need to really power up
this dragon, since it's way behind all the other dragons stat-wise.
|
When you want to leave, go talk to Truce at the bottom part of town. Say you
want to go back to the ship. He'll double check to make sure you really want to go.
Say you want to go back again. Then a small scene happens and then you get
two new party members: Nelbo and Joy! So since the last chapter, you've gotten
4 new characters and one new dragon - you've gained an entire new party to
command in battle!
