I used some Japanese Encoding, so If you want to view it you will need to get a program like NJStar Communicator. And finally if you have any questions, comments, or suggestion's then just contact me and I will get back to you as quick as I can. ----- Story ----- It is said that a Goddess will guide the Souls of the Dead to beyond regions they never new existed... Wars, Poverty, Disease...The Gods were always comparing what was left of the Dark World. The Souls of the Dead would be stained by Vampires, the Undead, Necromancers and a wonder of other wandering creatures... Humans Wars, Murders, and Betrayal would all still occur after they were "Dead". This sort of thing then started to happen inside the World of the Gods(Valhalla), so they called apon Valkyrie to gather Spirits to prevent this. However, Some of the people called apon could not accept the truth of this... Ragnarok...The End? The King of Gods Odin, controled the Earth Gods World. One day, King Odin thought of something...The subject was the "Yumil Neck" the world on which Ragnarok resides was getting close. Normally, there would be a loud cheer when the Van Race gets ready to enter battle. But with Ragnarok here there was much to fear, So the Goddess Valkyrie was sent out, To find those who were equipped to do battle with Ragnarok, The Lower World had many excellent Souls of those who died, but could they be ordered to fight... ------- Updates ------- Version 1.6 Added Ending A Walkthrough, Also finshed up all Artifacts/ Weapons/Techs/Magics/Etc.

When you select Skills you will be taken to a screen like this: ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Skills | Skills Set-Up Characteristics | |_________________________________|____________________________________| | | | Character Name Capacity: | |______________________________________________________________________| | | -> | | <- A. Reaction Skills | B. Support Skills | | Skill Name LV CP | Skill Name LV CP | | ------------------------ | ------------------------ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |_________________________________|____________________________________| This first screen you will end up on will be for your Skills. In order to raise a Skill Level you need to have enough Capacity Points. You gain Capacity Points by gaining a level. Just like in SO, the higher the skill level, the more profecient you are at the skill. Now when you click set-up you will come to a screen like this. ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Skills | Skills Set-Up Characteristics | |_________________________________|____________________________________| | | | Character Name Capacity: | |______________________________________________________________________| | | | | Established Skills | Skill Name LV CP | | | ------------------------ | | A1. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | A2. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | B. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | C. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | | | |_________________________________| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |____________________________________| When you click Set-Up you will first be asked if you want to: "Add or Remove?" If you click Add,you will then be allowed to choose what slot, and then add the skill. You can have two Reactions Skills, one Support Skill, and one Battle Skill. If you click Remove, you will have to then choose what skill you want to remove. Then just click on it. And Last here is the Human Characteristics Screen(Just a quick note here, but Characters Like Valkyrie/Frei/Any Non-Human does not have these options). ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Skills | Skills Set-Up Characteristics | |_________________________________|____________________________________| | | | Character Name Capacity: | |______________________________________________________________________| | | | | Characteristics Rank Value Total CP | | | | -------------------------------------------- | Characters | | | Level: | | | | | | | | | | | | This | | | Characters | | | Hero | | | Possibility | | | Is: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |_____________________________________________________|________________| Now what this is all about is this, Your Characters have Characterisitics that are both good and bad. And what you want to do is lower the bad and increase the good. That way when you send a character to fight, they will fight better. The Formula works out like this: Rank x Value = Total So when you have a Negative Characteristic you want to lower the total, and with a Positive Characteristic you want to raise the total. You do this by putting CP to each of the skills. Since enough people have asked me, I have decided to put the Characteristics here. And Here they are: Aluze: Bravery(+) Selfishness(-) Quick Wits(+) Cold Reasoning(-) Believes in Destiny(+) Pragmitist(+) Jake Linnas Memories of his Father(+) Memories of his Mother(+) Bravery(+) Doesn't Believe in Destiny(-) Self-Sacrifice(+) Shy(-) Commoner(-) Kashel Caculating(-) One Path(+) Stubborn(-) Tenacious(+) Lower Class(-) Optimist(+) Loud Voice(-) Meltina Very Prideful(-) Egotist(-) Narcist(-) Many Thoughts(-) Captivating Beauty(+) Domineering(-) Logical(+) Showy Tastes(-) Rolenta Motherly(+) Logical(+) Fights against Monsters(+) Refined Mind(+) Worrier(-) Money Grubber(-) Cooperative(+) Yumeru Healthy(+) Calculating(-) Quick Wits(+) Flirter(-) Memories of her Father(+) Showy(-) Sense of Direction(+) Strong in Swimming(+) Anyways, Now on to the Item Screen... ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Items Screen | Use Transform Change to MP | |_________________________________|____________________________________| |<- | ->| | Use Items | Weapons | | Item Name Total | Item Name Total | | --------------------- | --------------------- | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |_________________________________|____________________________________| Also you there is a screen that just lists Artifacts. Now just select an item and you will then be taken to a screen where you choose who to use it on. Transform:This will allow you to change some items into different items. Not all items work with this(But I do have a partial list near the bottom of this FAQ). Anyways just select an item and it will tell you how much MP you will need to tranform this item and then what the item will become after. Then just select the quantity and just hit O. Change to MP:When you select this, it is sort of like selling back your equipment. You only get half of what you paid for, but it still more money. Now onto Divine Items... ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Divine Items | Materilize Points: | |_________________________________|____________________________________| |<- ->| | Use Items | | Item Name MP Costs Total Left Current Total \MAX | | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |______________________________________________________________________| Divine Item is just like Shopping. But you use Materilize Points to pay for you items. Each time you complete a Chapter, more items will be added to the list. Also the better the item, the less you can carry. Just select the item and then you will be taken to a screen ask you how many you want to buy. Then just press O to confirm. And last you cant make items in a Dungeon. Party Screen... ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Party | Formation Experience Chest Practice | |__________________________|___________________________________________| | | | Name ATK | | Level RDM | | DME AVD Character Portrait | | HIT | | STR INT DEF | | AGL DEX RST | |______________________________________________________________________| | | | Name Level | T | ------------------- | | | | | | | S O | | | | | | | | X | | | | | | |_____________________________| When you first bring up this screen you get the choice of either: "Change or Remove?" If you choose change, you first select a character and then move them to the appropriate spot or change them with another character. If you choose remove, just select a character and they have been taken out of the party. I'm not going to bother making up a screen for Experience chest because it doesn't need one. Basically this is how it works. You get extra Exp. for doing certain events or giving artifacts to Odin. You can then give these Exp Points to characters. You do this by selecting a character and the choosing the amount. It will also tell you at the bottom how many Exp. Points you will need for you next level. Then just choose the amount and select the far left answer when it comes up. And as for practice...I haven't gotten this to work yet, so If someone can tell me what it is I would appreciate it. Here is the ability screen. ______________________________________________________________________ | | | Abilities | |______________________________________________________________________| | | | Name Character Portrait | | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | Ordinary Techs Counter Attack Tech | | | | 1. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | 2. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | Clincher Move | | 3. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | | | | | | | | | |______________________________________________________________________| When you have a weapon that allows you to use all three techs you can change the order of them by pressing the O button. You can also change the Counterattack move too. Now to the Equip Screen. ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Equipment | Name | |___________________________________________| | | | ATK | | | RDM Character | | | AVD Portrait | | Item Name Total | HIT | | ---------------------------------------- | DEF | | | RST | | |__________________________| | | | | | Weapon: | | | Head: | | | Body: | | | Arm: | | | Feet: | | | Head: | | | Ornament 1: | | | Ornament 2: | | | Accessory 1: | | | Accessory 2: | | | Accessory 3: | |___________________________________________|__________________________| When you first bring up the screen you will get a series of choices. First will be: "Change, Remove or Strongest Equipment" If you choose Change, you will then get to select the piece of equipment that you want to change and what you want it to change to. If you choose Remove, it will just remove the piece of equipment that you selected. If you choose Strongest Equipment, you will then have to make another choice. It will be between: "Strongest or Most Accurate" So if you choose Strongest, you will get the strongest equipment no matter what the accuraccy. If you choose Most Accurate you will get the equipment with the highest Accurracy but, It may be weak. Transfer:This is what you use when you want to send you characters to fight for Odin. The only requirement is that they character have a Positive Hero Possibility. Anyways once you send a character to Odin that character will never come back. Also the game gives you two chances to change your mind, before the character is sent. Status Screen: ______________________________________________________________________ | | | Status | |______________________________________________________________________| | | | Name | | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Lv (Level) | | | | DME | | (Divine Material Energy) | | STR (Strength) | | INT (Intelligence) | | AGL (Agility) | | DEX (Dexterity) | | | | ATK (Attack) Character Close-Up Picture | | *MAG (Magic Power) | | RDM (Reduce Damage) | | AVD (Avoid) | | HIT (Hit Rate) | | RST (Resist) | | | | EXP (Experience) | | After | | | | *CT (Charge Turn) | | | | Estimated Value/Hero Possibilty | |______________________________________________________________________| * These Only Apply to Magic Using Characters.

Also I find they way that they show your attributes to be very annoying. I don't know why they had to try and give it a "3-D" look. It just makes it very difficult. Configure:Im not going to do any ASCII thing for this. I though I would just list what it was and the options. Text Speed:Slow or Fast(Starts on Slow) Controller Configuration: Accept/Attack.................O Cancel/Jump...................X Status Screen.................T Crystal Throw.................S Mini-Map......................R2 Consult Back..................L1 Message Cart..................R1 Dash Settings Auto Dash(Double Tap to Walk) Auto Walk(Double Tap to Dash) Face Portrait On Off Vibration On Off Window Shading Sound Stereo Monoaural Back Ground Music Volume Special Effects Volume Vocal Volume Saving/Load: To save a game just be at a save spot or on the world map and select save. Then just choose a spot and choose the right hand answer. To load just do the samething, except you can load in Dungeons. Sleeping: You can sleep in the game when you are on the World Map. The longer you sleep the greater the benifits. 1 Period=All Party Members recover to Max DME. 2 Periods=Same as above and will cure all Status Conditions except Dead. 3 Periods=Same as 2, but will cure the Dead. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- 2.3)Battles ----------- *I will write this section once I fully understand the battle system. The battle system Valkyrie Profile uses is one where it just takes practice. But, Here are a few tips. The most important thing is timing. You can tell when you did a good job of timing because you will get more Mystic Gems/Treasure Chests/ Violet Flame Stones. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- 2.4)Time -------- Valkyrie Profile uses a system of Chapters and Periods. Each event costs 1 or 2 periods. When you have used up all of the Periods in a Chapter, the game will move on to the next chapter. You can accomplish all "major" events in a chapter so don't worry that you will run out of time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- 2.5)Endings ----------- There are Three Endings that you can recieve in Valkyrie Profile. They are A,B,and C(each one getting progressivly worse). Here are what the requirments are: Ending C -------- Reduce your Estimated Worth to 0. When you have done that, head back to the World Map and Frei will be waiting for you. This Ending is basically Frei killing you. Ending B -------- To get this Ending, just play as you normally would. Just make sure that your Estimated Worth doesn't reach 0 and you will be sure to get this Ending. Ending A -------- There has been a lot of different information on how to get this one. So here is what tri-Ace says you will need to do to get Ending A. [Thanks to Steve Moon for finding this out.] Meet with Bram. Get Meltina in your Party. Send Rucio up before the End of Chapter 6. Have Valkyries Seal Rating be under 36, by the end of Chapter 6. Continue to keep Valkyries Seal Rating low until the end of the game. Now here is what you can do to affect Valkyrie's Seal Rating. Not wearing your Nibelungen Ring. (-2) Every Character that Valkyrie Gets. (-2) Meeting with Rezard. (-10) Meeting with Bram. (-10) Meeting with Meltina. (-15) Visiting Platina's Grave (-15) Getting Rucio in your party. (-20) Every Character that you send up (+12) There is a scene that might take place between Chapters 6 and 7. If this takes place you are going to get Ending A. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============ 3)Characters ============ Right now this section does not have much info.

(Again I will say that Valkryie once preformed this job, until the Crown of Life was passed.) Frei was originally a Norse-Male God, but we decided to change it to a female as it couldn't be helped. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- 3.20)Jake Linas --------------- Name:Jake Linas [ジェイクリーナス] Age:40 Sex:Male Info:A Gun Fighter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ 3.21)Belinas ------------ Name:Belinas [ベリナス] Age:Unknowen Sex:???

Characters: Aluze Sherad Bosses: Ronbelt Elder Vampire & 2x Dragon Servant Items Found: Eye of Heaven Iron Lattice Key Writings of the Immortal 2x Plant Seeds Treasure Search Element Scepter Baritone Crystal Zebori Angel Cure Fire Lance Jigatalis Lapis 2x Artifacts ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you start the game the camera will slowly travel down and you will hear bells chiming. You will then see Valkyrie in a field, she comments about how it certainly is Nice. You will then see leaves blowing around as Valkyrie walks along a beaten path while the credits go by. Eventually she will arrive at an Ancient Castle. Now walk forward and you will see a woman at the enterence. When you get close enough she will speak. She will welcome you to Valhalla. Here name is Phlia. She will say that She and her sister Frei missed her alot. Valkyrie then says that it has been a long time and asks if she doing well. Phlia will answer yes, then she says that Odin wants her inside. Valkyrie will then go inside. Valkyrie will say that she has arrivied and kneel. Frei will tell her to stand up. She then warps down to Valkyrie and hugs her. Frei will talk about how its been a while since they've seen each other and say that she missed Valkyrie. Valkyrie says she also missed Frei. Odin then notes Rennas Valkyrie as one of the 3 Goddess of Fate. He then continues by saying that needs some help with the World of Destruction "Ragnarok". Valkyrie wonders about Ragnarok. Odin then says that with the Van Race ready to make a move, The Earth Gods are stuck in a fairly difficult situation. So he wants you to goto the Lower World of Midguard and find Human Souls that can do fight against them. Valkyrie says that sound like a very important job for herself, but she will do it. Odin then continues that once it has arrived certain destruction is inevitable. Frei will then agree. Then a light will emit from Valkyrie and she will then be in different clothers. After that Frei adds that she is going too. Frei then continues saying that it should be a memoriable experience. After that Valkyrie and Frei warp out as the camera rises to the sky. The camera then fades in on Valkyrie and Frei on a Cliff. Valkyrie asks if this is the world that humans inhabit. Frei answers yes, this is the Midguard. And this is where their souls reside. Frei asks if she thinks its nice. Valkyrie says she doesn't really have a sentimental feelings about. It just looks like a bunch of land. Frei asks if that's so. Frei then says that it's time for them to go. Valkyrie asks where to go now. Frei asks Valkyrie about what she just said, and then wonders if she is going to have to teach her. Frei then Warps and then Valkyrie follows. They both then reappear on the world map. Frei asks Valkyrie what can't she hear. Valkyrie says she can't hear anything. Frei tells her that she needs to use her power. Frei then tells her to open her eyes, concentrate her mind, and to empty her heart, and be very understanding. The game will then tell you to press Start to listen to the Spirits, so press Start. The world will then rotate around Valkyrie and she will hear many different things and eventually tell you to goto Altoria. Valkyrie is speechless after that. Frei asks if she heard that. Valkyrie will ask what that was. Frei then tells Valkyrie that is her power. With it she can listen to Humans Pain, Anger, and Wishes. And with that she can have a good sense of the Soul. Frei continues by saying that Valkyrie must get the Souls of dead human fighters. But Valkyrie is wondering how she is going to choose who to take. Frei says that is a problem, so... Valkyrie then inquires about the so. But Frei just says that they should start moving, then says that they will need to have hearts that understand humans. The both then warp out as the screen darkens. Then a message will come up on the screen says "Heart of a Human...Do I even have a Heart?". ----- Aluze ----- The screen will the come back up and you will see a brown haired Knight kill a gorilla with an Ax. Then more soilders will run by and a man with a giant sword will walk onto the screen. Rofar will then tell Aluze to please hurry up. The camera will then move to the right and you will see two soldiers down and four more soldiers facing off against a flying creature. Soldier A will say this is frightening. Aluze then walks on the screen and Soldier B notices. Aluze will say it is just a bother. Now move Aluze to the flying creature and just as you get there Rofar will walk up. Rofar will say he is in this too. You will then enter battle. It is just a Lesser Harpy, and this will probably be the first time you mess with the battle system. Also the Lesser Harpy on Normal has Combo Guard, so your first few attacks probably won't do anything, but all it takes is 3 rounds. The screen will then switch to a new location. You will see a simple house and a man paint. Aluze then walks in. Roy will say that his brother startled him. Roy will then ask if Aluze got injured. Aluze will say that he is fine. Aluze then walks over to where his brother has been painting. Aluze asks if Roy has actually done anything besides painting that cat. Roy will then say that painting is doing something. Aluze asks how much the painting is worth. Roy says it isn't worth anything. Aluze then says how worthless it was. Roy then hesitintly asks his brother to quit fighting and killing. Aluze is taken aback by the question and says that they would have no money and no food. Aluze then walks off and tells him that he should get a new interest. Then a flashback occurs. Aluze is sitting on the table and asks his brother what he wants to eat. Roy will say that he isn't very hungry and for him to go get somthing himself. Roy then continues by saying that he is going to goto bed early so he can get up and finsh painting the cat. Then it comes back and Roy aplogizes for asking his Brother why he fights. Aluze then says that he will leave his gold here. Aluze then puts a Gold Statue on the table. Roy will then ask what the statue is. Aluze says it supposed to be lucky. He got it in battle by killing the strongest people. Aluze then continues up to bed and the screen fades. Then you hear a clinking noise. An Elderly gentleman bends over to pick up a Scepter that fell on the ground. Ronbelt will then tell the Princess that she needs to be more careful with her stuff, saying that he has seen this staff cause some real trouble. The Princess then shouts out Silence. Then adding that she is going to go see the Wind Ghost Soldiers. Ronbelt then asks the princess what she is doing, saying that all he wants is for her to trust him. Sherad then thinks it over as Ronbelt hands back the scepter and leaves. Now the screen show the King and many knights kneeling. The kings is talking about how there are special breed of people. And about how it all comes from the heart. The King then says it is time to bring in their strongest warrior, Aluze. The screen then moves to where Aluze has been. Aluze then stands up. The King then tells him to take his Money and Statue. Aluze then walks forward to where the King and Sherad are. Aluze then thanks the king for his kind words, and says he tries to keep his heart clear, but thanks the King for everything. Aluze asks himself why he is taking this. Aluze then thinks this has to be some kind of a fraud. Azule then starts laughing. The crowd then quiets down. Aluze then tells the King how pathetic this was. The King asks what he is talking about. Aluze then asks the King if he didn't really think he would know about the statue. The King is shocked. Then Aluze lifts his sword and Sherad tells her father to get down, but Aluze was aiming at the Statue. Aluze then says that he has no interst in that. Sherad the yells at Aluze telling him he has no right to speak to her Father the King that way. Sherad then add that she hopes he dies a thousand times. Aluze then starts to leave and the cowering King gets up. Sherad yells for someone to stop him, but no one does. You now see Sherad in her room. Sherad is wondering about the Commoner Man and about how she can get rid of him in one poof. She then comes up with an idea. You are now back in Aluze rooms and you can control him. Head downstairs and to the door. You will then hear a knocking. A Girl will then come in. Aluze will ask what she needs. The Girl will ask if he is Aluze. He then says that he is. The Girl then introduces herself as Shera... Aluze then wonders about the name. The Girl then says its Sara. The Girl then says she is name Angela. Both are puzzled. Aluze then asks what she came for. "Angela" says she has a job for him. Roy asks if his brother isn't really going to take it. Aluze is really thinking. The scene then fades to the Main Street of Altoria. Aluze wants to know where he is going. "Angela" doesn't really know where to go here. Aluze then just suggest they go in the Chinese Restaurant. The Waitress then shows up and asks for there order. Aluze will think this entire thing is weird. "Angela" then tells the waitress that she will have this and this and this and this... The Waitress will say "Angela" certainly does have a craving for food. And this and this... Aluze stands up and asks if she is going to eat the entire restuarant. "Angela" says she certainly couldn't eat all of the food in the restuarant. Aluze then gets frustrated and sits back down. He then asks what the job is. "Angela" then asks if they can talk about it after she's finshed eating. The screen will then go black and tell you 30 Minutes Later... "Angela" will call for the Cook. The Waitress will ask what she needs. "Angela" will just repeat that she needs to see the Cook. Aluze will get frustrated and say she should stop acting like a King. The Head Cook will then walk on screen and ask what she wanted. "Angela" will say the food tastes like Shit and say that the meat is still alive. The Cook will explain that is how it is supposed to be. "Angela" will then start to complain about the soup. The Cook will then again explain that is how it is supposed to be. "Angela" will then asks if that is a chopped up monster, saying she doesn't want to eat a baby Kraken. The Cook will then explain that its Squid. Anyways this keeps going on and eventually "Angela" takes a drink of water and spits it out asking what this is. Then she asks if they are trying to poison her. "Angela" then says that she hopes the cook dies a thousand times, then falls down asleep. Aluze wakes up and notes that she drank Sake. The screen then changes to Aluze house. Roy is asking if his brother is going to take the job. Aluze will say yes. Then "Angela" will roll over and her hat will fall off. Aluze will then be shocked noting that its Princess Sherad. Roy will tell his brother he is going to bed. Aluze then says he will probably end up taking the job. Aluze then tells his brother he hopes he feels better. Sherad will then talk in her sleep and Aluze will wonder what she is saying. Eventually Sherad tells her father that she will make sure Aluze dies a thousand times. Aluze then sits on the bed and understands. The screen then fades to the previous day as Aluze notes the reasons why Sherad wants revenge. "Angela" will then wake up and wonder where she is. She will then asks Aluze if he still wants the job. Aluze says he will. Sherad will walk out of the room and Aluze will ponder the job. The scene will change to that of a bar, and an Agent in a black coat walks coat walks in. Badluck will notice this and the Agent will take a drink and walk over to Badluck. Badluck will ask what they need to talk about. The Agent won't say anything. Badluck asks why the Agent didn't say anything. The Agents says they need to speak quickly and tells Badluck about his partner. Badluck says he doesn't need a partner. Eventually Badluck asks for 5000 extra. The Agent says its a deal. Badluck says that was easy and then asks about his partner. The Agent will then leave. Badluck will then say he doesn't care if he has a partner so long as he gets paid. The screen will head back to Aluze house. You can now freely walk around town. But all you really need to do is just go in and out of your house. When you go back in Roy will tell you that the woman is here. The Agent then says she needs to speak with Aluze. Roy will ask if this is about the job and Aluze says it is. Roy then asks if he took it. Anyways after a while you will end up outside and Badluck will greet you. Badluck then introduces himself. The Agents says they should stop talking and get going. Badluck agrees. Then the screen will go black and Aluze will explain there travels. Eventually you will see Aluze and Badluck travling on the road. Badluck says the only reason he took this job is for the money, also the fact that Ronbelt wanted him to take it too. Aluze will ask if its the same Altoria Minister Ronbelt. Badluck tells Aluze to wait, and then he notes there are soldiers approaching. Aluze then tells about the Knights and eventually one of the Knights will tell you to Halt. One of the Knights runs up to the cart and Badluck tells him to wait. Aluze then tells his thoughts and then tells Badluck to run. Badluck stops and asks what that is. You will see Sherad as Aluze explains it is Sherad. Now you will see Badluck and Aluze resting with Badluck explaining about how they had to run all night. Badluck will tell about how Ronbelt betrayed them. Aluze is about to slash at Badluck, but he tells Aluze that he was betrayed too. Aluze will then ask about how he knew about the knights and Ronbelt. Badluck explains that Ronbelt is actually a Valnova Spy. Aluze can't believe it, but Badluck says its true. Ronbelt wanted to have the Princess moved to Valnova so he could start a fight. You then hear Aluze mull over his plan to kill Ronbelts and then you hear Sherad ask Aluze to help her. The screen will be back to where it was before and you will hear a man shout out. Aluze will grab his sword and Badluck will wonder what that was. Badluck will then walk to the next screen and ask what that thing is. You will then see a Red Beast with Two Knight dead, with one Knight holding it off. That Knight will then ask for help. Aluze will ask that Knight about Sherad. The Knight will explain that Ronbelt did somthing to the Princess. Badluck asks if that is the Princess. Aluze will talk about what Ronbelt has done to everyone. After that Badluck explains that is a Ghoul Pounder. Aluze asks what a Ghoul Pounder is. Badluck explains that it is a human changed into a monster and that only Necromancers can do it. Aluze wonders if Ronbelt is a Necromancer. The screen will shift to the beast and you will see 4 ghosts surround it. Aluze then thinks about Angela. Badluck wonders why he is thinking about Sherad and then says this is Altoria's Problem and then leaves. After this Aluze explains he doesn't have the personality to run away. So you then see him run towards the Ghoul Pounder, but when he gets there Valkyrie and Frei warp in. Valkyrie quickly dispatches 2 of the Ghosts. Aluze then tells you to leave, but then says it can't be. Valkyrie tells the human to leave, that he can't fight and he should watch from the path. Aluze wonders if this is the War Goddess Valkyrie. Anyways Aluze tells his thought then and when he is done you enter battle with the Ghoul Pounder. The Ghoul Pounder isn't hard either. Just takes about 5/6 rounds and it's over. After the battle Aluze will be walking along the path and discussing about how he thought he was strong, but then he realized he was just warrior in a little Kingdom. After that you see Valkyrie take the soul from Sherad's body. Then the scene shifts back to where Aluze is challanging Ronbelt. Ronbelt will say he underestimated Aluze and then takes his glasses off saying it won't happen again. Ronbelt then casts a spell which surrounds Aluze in black. You then see Sherad begging Valkyrie to help Aluze, which she eventually agrees to do. Ronbelt then says he could survive the Ghoul by running, but he can't survive now. Then Voice will say to stop hurting that man. Valkyrie then comes in and breaks the spell. Ronbelt can't believe that. Then he thinks she just has the ability to break dark spells. Valkyrie then asks why he was trying to corrupt Aluze soul. After that a battle occurs. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name:Ronbelt HP:750 Attacks:Burn Storm Strategy:There isn't too much strategy you can do. Just attack and eventually Ronbelt will go down. You shouldn't have to heal. Otherwise this is a standard easy first battle. After the battle four soldier will be trying to take down Aluze. Aluze will ask himself why he wants to kill as he dispatches the four soldiers with ease. Aluze then talk about how he is weak and he wants to die. Valkyrie then appears and say that he doesn't have all power. Aluze will say a Death God shouldn't talk like that. Then a voice will say to the Commoner that the War Goddess isn't a Death God, and hopes that he dies a thousand times. Sherad then appears. Aluze says he was wrong about Valkyrie being a Death God. Valkyrie says she need Aluze to help stop the Destruction. The Knight Captain comes in and asks Aluze to throw down his sword, and Aluze does. But then Aluze takes a short sword and kills himself. After that Sherad/Valkyrie/Aluze all talk. And after that you are back on the world map. Valkyrie will ask Frei whats wrong. Frei will say there is nothing wrong and say next they have to do something. Valkyrie asks about what they are doing next. Frei says she has to train her Heros so they won't "Die Again" on the God World. After that Frei says to use her Soul Concentration again. This time it will tell you to goto the Altoria Mountain Ruins. Valkyrie says she knows where to go, and Frei tells her to go there. So head to the Orange Dot and then press the O Button. ------------------- Mount Altoria Ruins ------------------- Once you enter Vakyrie will jump off of the Ledge and say she feels the enemies in here. Frei warps in and tells her she is right, there are the Undead here. Frei then says she will give you some help here. Frei first explains about Save Points, and that you should go. After that go save the game and then head to the right. When you enter this screen Frei will say this is battlefield and about how you fight enemies. Then Frei explain how you swing your sword. Anyways first thing to do is head all the way to the right and walk up the stairs. Then keep walking to the left and head in the door way. When you enter this room Frei will explain that in order open things you need to press Down and O Button. When you do that you will find the Iron Lattice Key. Then head all the way back to the first floor and then head the the first door you come to. If you go inside you should find a Eye of Heaven. After you get that keep walking to the left and go in the last door. When you enter Frei will tell you that you will need a Key to get through the Iron Lattice. Since you already have the Key just walk up to the door and it will open. Then Head downstairs. When you first enter here Frei will explain about how to climb ladders. Anyways just jump off the ledge and you should land at a jump you can't make. Frei will then come out and explain how you work your Crystals. After that just create a crystal and jump on out. After you Jump out Frei will explain that you can also temporaily freeze enemies with the Crystals too. Now head all the way to the right and you should find a room where you find a Plant Seed. Then start heading down but keep going to the left. Frei will then tell you about how certain Treasure Chests are trapped. Oh, one thing, If you can do a good combo against the Monster underneath the two treasures you can get a Fire-Lance Book(which is a good little spell for now). Anyways only the left treasure is trapped, so open the right as normal(It The Writing of the Immortal). Now open the Left Treasure and run, that way you avoid the damage. Then head back up and grab the treasure(it's a Plant Seed). Now head all the way down, and the goto the right. Keep walking and you will reach a Giant Pillar. Frei will tell you to hit the crack. So have Valkyrie swing at the crack about two times and the pillar will fall. After that you will get 500 points of experience. Frei will then tell you how to work the Experience chest. Now head back to the room where the Plant Seeds were and you will now find that you can walk all the way to the right. Now create a crystal path so you can get that treasure chest on the right, but watch out, its trapped. Now your probably saying how do I get that chest on the right, I can't jump. Well you can do this two way. What you need to do is to make "Hard Crystal" by jumping on it. Then you move these on the platform that had the Plant Seeds to the edge. With that you should be able to make the Jump, or you can just the Treasure Cheast(I haven't tried this, but I think it should work). Anyways if you can successfully do it, you can get a Treasure Search. When you have the Treasure Search Equipped, whenever you are in a room with treasure a blue orb will circle around you. Now head all the way to the bottom of this room and then head to the left. Then head to the left again. You will be in a very tall room and what you need to do is get to the top. Once you get to the top you will find a Crystal, Baritone, Zebori and an Angel Cure. Then head all the way down and this time goto the right. Now you will be in a room with many spikes. Just kill the enemy on the platfrom and then just up and get that Treasure Chest(It's an Element Scepter). Then keep going to the right. You will eventually enter a room that have a Nightshade and a Fire Lance, Frei will then tell you about how magic books work. Now head back to the room that had the treasure search. The go downstairs. Now walk to the right until you can climb the stairs. The on the (I think it's the 3rd platform) goto the right. You will then be in a room where you can find a Lapis Stone. The climb back up and you will reach a save point. So Save the Game. The walk to the right again. Valkyrie then says to Come Out. An Elder Vampire will then come out and claim Valkyrie is a distraction. Valkyrie says she protects life, while the Vampires use life. The Elder Vampire thought he could talk you out of fighting, but he guesses he is wrong. Frei than warps in and says she is leaving, but she gives Valkyrie a weapon. Frei then tells Valkyrie that the Weapon hits 3 times and hands over a Little Balshuu. You then get in a battle. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name:Elder Vampire 2x Dragon Servant HP: Elder Vampire:4800 Dragon Servant:500 Recommended Level:3 Attacks: Elder Vampire:2x Physical Fire Lance Shadow Servant Dragon Servant:1x Physical EXP:1600 Strategy:When you start this battle Valkyrie will explain that Dragon Servants have Combo Guard. Which will stop any combo. And the only way to break it is to have the whole party attack. Anyways this battle is pretty easy. Especially if you get a Clincher. After the battle you will see two treasure chests on the ground. When you open them you will find out they are the Houken Grim Gaudy and the Sealed Gem. If this is your first time playing the game, then just takes all artifacts. If you are playing to get the good ending, I would leave both of these items. Also once you finsh this you will get 3000 bonus exp. Anyways, Save and then head all the way back. Once you get to the first save point Frei warps out. Frei and Valkyrie talk and pretty much all Frei does is remind you of the things you learned. Then the game will explain the Chapter/Period system. Then Frei says you need to hurry to stop Ragnarok. Then she leaves a Fairy with you. The Fairy just tells you about the battle system. Anyways just jump out the way you came in, and you will then be in Chapter 1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- 4.2)Chapter 1 ------------- Events: Path 1)Meeting with Belinas.

It will tell you to goto Lassen, so do it. ------- Belinas ------- When you first enter the town you will see a Man and a Woman walking down the street. The Woman will then walk over to the stream. Her name is Asaka. Asaka then asks what the name of this ugly rock is. The Man(Belinas) will tell her to put that down and get going. Asaka will will not say anything and then Belinas will come over and grab the rock. Asaka will then tell Belinas to give her back the rock. When Belinas doesn't answer Asaka says that buying and selling slaves is almost in-human. Belinas talks about how it can't be helped and that they will be better off. Asaka then just says that all she was trying to say is it was wrong, especially to children. Then Asaka says that she isn't going to go watch. Belinas then says that if Asaka has a problem with it she doesn't have to come, but that is what this country does. Asaka will say that was cruel, and then says that people only have one life to live. Belinas will pause a second and then ask if Asaka wants her rock back. She will then say yes. There will be another pause and Belinas will say that this rock will bring good destiny. Asaka will ask what a destiny is. Belinas will explain that is all decsisions by the Gods. The screen will then go black and you will be in a flash back. You will see Belinas with a Man and a Woman and with Asaka crying on the floor. A Woman(Maria) will explain that they found a cute one, and they are giving her as a gift. Belinas will then ask his father what he expects them to do with this child. His father will tell him that he can give the child some of the tasks that Maria does. His father then leaves. Belinas will say to Maria how absurd this is. Maria will apoligize to the girl. Then Belinas will ask what the childs name is. Maria will tell him that it is Asaka. Belinas will question the name and Maria will say yes. Belinas will snap his fingers and Asaka will then stop crying. Belinas will then say it is nice to see her face. After that the scene will go to the cages. Asaka will ask if it is today and Belinas will not answer. Now you are back at the stream and Belinas tells Asaka to keep the rock of destiny. Now Belinas will now talk "Destiny? With Maria dead why am I talking about destiny. With Father and Many of my Friends killed in Battle why am I talking about destiny." After that he continues on about how he doesn't believe in destiny and then talks about how he meet Asaka. Now you are at the Cages again and Asaka will try and get Belinas attention. Belinas says there is no way he can do it. The scene will then shift to Belinas house. Belinas will be sleeping in bed when all of a sudden a Ghost appears. Belinas jumps out of bed as the ghost approaches him. But just before the ghost can get to him Valkyrie warps in and takes out the Ghost. Belinas will ask who you are, then pauses saying it can't be. Valkyrie will then explain that the Undead Curse this house and particularly the girl. Belinas will then thinks about Asaka and immediatly takes off to her room. Valkyrie then warps out. You will then see an Elder Vampire over the life-less body of Asaka. The Elder Vampire will say he did this all for Veriza. The Elder Vampire warps out just as Belinas comes in. Belinas then yells out Asaka and walks over to her. Valkyrie then warps in. Belinas then asks Valkyrie to please help the girl. Valkyrie will then ask if Belinas still doesn't believe in Destiny. Belinas will ask about this Destiny, then wonders about how this can all be destiny. Anyways after a while Valkyrie will explain that she can summon Asaka's soul back if Belinas gives his Soul. Valkyrie then explains to him that it means dying. Belinas then says he doesn't care. Valkyrie then hops up into the air, and flaps her wings a couple of times and Belinas falls down. Valkyrie then heads to the floor and grabs Belinas soul. Valkyrie will then warp out. After this a strange light will surround Asaka's body. Now you will see Valkyrie in Belinas room and eventually a message will come up that will tell you about Magic God Veriza. Anyways you will find yourself on the World Map again and it is time to use the Soul Concentration. And this time it will tell you to goto the Soldi Cemetary. --------------- Soldi Cementary --------------- When you first enter head straight to the right and fall down the whole in the ground. You should land on a top of a pile of skulls. And there should be a bag near it. In that bag is the skill Attack Power. It's really nice little skill to start pumping up right now. But Since I generally Belinas up after the first chapter, I tend to spend his CP on his Hero Possibility. Anyways after this head back up the pile of skulls to the left. In this room take out all the enemies, then you will need to crystalize the platform to the left. This will allow you to make a running jump so that you can get the Short Bow. It is very important that you have a bow for this boss battle. So once you grab that continue heading to the left. Now first head past the ladder and go in the doorway. Now to your left you will see a Gargoyle Statue in a Pentagram and to your right you will see a Stone Monument. What you need to do is slash the Gargoyle then move the Monument to the Pentagram. When you do this you will be rewarded with 1000 Experience. Then go outside this room and climb the ladder. After that just keep going to the left until you reach a new room. First keep going until you reach the ladder. Then climb it and continue to the left and you will find a chest that has the Avoid skill in it. Then head back to the ladder and go through the doorway. And in this room just move the Monument on the left into the Pentagram that is to the right and you gain another 100 Exp. Then head out and slide underneath those rocks. Now you will have to do the same Monument/Pentagram things and when you finsh continue on to your right. In this room first you should head to the bottom platfrom and open the chest and you will find a Fire Lance spell in it, but watch out it is traped. Now you will need to climb that stair to the top and push the Monument off the edge. Then just slash at the Gargoyle and you will gain another 1000 Exp. Then just continue along the very top route and head into the new room. In this room you can grab a Broad Sword and a Eye of Heaven, but to get the Eye of Heaven you will need to attach a crystal to the platform to allow you to make the jump. After that slash at the Gargoyle and if everything works right then the door to the left should open. If it doesn't it means you missed a Statue. Anyways once the door opens you will gain 5000 Exp. Then continue on the room to the right. Now head down to the bottom left and save. Then continue along the bottom path and you will find a Treasure Chest, but you will need to watch out as the Chest contains a trap. Once you open it you will get a Element Scepter. Then go back and save again and take the high road this time. But don't go in through the door yet. You first need to equip a bow on Valkyrie if you haven't already and you will soon understand why. Once you have the bow equipped on Valkyrie head through the door. When you walk in a Drow Shaman will be there. Valkyrie will say the Shamam must be the one harrasing the dead. The Shaman will talk about how it is fun, etc. Valkyrie will then get mad and you will enter a battle. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name: Violent Apeman 2x Drow Shamans HP: Violent Apeman:4000 Drow Shamans:1000 Recommended Level:5 Attacks: Violent Apeman:Physical Drow Shamans:Fire Lance EXP: Strategy:If you do not have a bow equipped on Valkyrie when you start this battle one of your characters will die. What you have to do is on the first round have Valkyrie use her bow to take out one of the Shamans in the back row. If you don't they will both use Fire Lance on the same character, and that character will die. After both of the Shaman are gone, then just use the standard battle plan and try and get a Clincher. After the battle is over you will find a horde of treasure for your taking. You will find a Book on Making Damsacus(Send up), the Crown of Thelma(Keep), and the Grey Blue Scarf(Keep) and then a message will tell you that you gained 10000 Exp. But, don't leave yet. There are two more chests you can get. Use your crystal on the right wall and go up to the top. You will then find a book for the spell Cool Dazzel(Very Nice) and a book for the skill Magic Power(also very nice). Anyways after that is all done use the stairs to the left to leave. Once you are on the World Map use your Soul Concentration. This time it will tell you to goto Clairmonferan. ------ Rourry ------ The scene will open up with many people attending a funeral. An admistrator will be asking for the War Goddess to take this heroes soul. And that she should please come. The the camera will move up and you will see doves flying above a massive castle. The scene will then move on and you will see a young woman in a forest. Then a man will run up. Rourry will apoligze to Miria and will note that she waited. Miria will say that she did because she wanted to see you. You will then hear the leaves rustle and Miria will comment about the music that the trees make. Miria will then ask Rourry what he thinks about the music. Rourry will then look up to the sky and say that it sure makes him feel better and that it reminds him of the sound the ocean makes. Miria will then ask Rourry why he wanted to meet her here. Rourry will asks what's wrong. Miria says that she has a feeling Rourry is going to goto Sea or become a Soldier and fight in a War. Rourry will ask how she knows. Miria say she just knows and that her Mother told her to forget all about Rourry. Rourry says that it is probably the best thing to do. Miria says he shouldn't say that. Miria then says she has a feeling that Rourry will come back, once more. Rourry will be presently supprised at this. Rourry then hugs Miria and tells her that he won't die. Miria then returns the hug. The screen will then go black and a message will tell you that Rourry did die in battle. When the scene comes back up you will see Miria in a Chair. Rourry will be thinking about how cruel it was to say that and that he was wrong to go off to battle. The screen will the go back to the forest and you will see Miria talk about how she will one day speak to Rourry again. The leaves will rustle in the forest once again. Miria will say how cruel that is and ask the noise to stop. The trees will then rustle again. Miria will this time beg whoever is doing this to stop. She then says she can't even look to the sky knowing Rourry is dead. The screen will go black. Valkyrie will then appear on the screen. She asks Rourry if he really wants to do this. Rourry will explain that is what he said. Valkyrie will say that you humans think one thing and do another. Rourry will question this. Valkyrie talks about how even though the strong feel strong, and the weak feel Weak, they all in the end have the same Heart. Valkyrie then asks if he understands and then asks him about the Woman. Valkyrie asks Rourry if he wants to stop the never ending pain of the Woman. Rourry then says he wouldn't know what to say. The screen the fades back into the forest. You then see Rourry run towards Miria as she gets up and shouts out his name. Rourry then hugs her and Miria then hugs him. Rourry then apoligizes for not being able to see her. The screen then goes blank and Valkryie will comment about how she is slowly turning into an Angel... Anyways use your Soul Concentration again and this time it will tell you to goto the Forgotten Caves. --------------- Forgotten Caves --------------- *I don't really understand the way this cave works. In order to get the treasure I think you need to run as fast as you can to the room with the treasures in it, but if someone knows please tell me. Before you do the Forgotten Caves I recommend that you goto the Cursed Woods first. The enemies in here are just too strong. You will also need the Dragon Slayer(see the section at the bottom of this chapter). After that you will probably have to try a couple of times for the Treasure Chests to appear. You need these Treasure Chests because you need the Naken "Ruin's Fate". So what you need to do is crystalize all the enemies and just run to the right as fast as you can. If you do it right you will be able to pick up the Naken "Ruin's Fate". Now that you have it, crystalize your way up the right side of that wall and then jump over that monster. If you made it in time you will be able to gain two additional treasures. Now you can go back and start killing the monsters. But, You have to do it in a ceratin order. The first one you will want to kill is the Dragon Zombie. Just use the Dragon Slayer and it will be dead (otherwise, it will kill you). Now just walk left and fall down to where you got the Ruin's Fate. By the way save often when you use the Ruin's Fate(It has a 5% chance of breaking). Anyways jump back up to the left and kill the monster on the ground. It should be a crab like monster. Now it's time to kill the flying monster. Then keep going back to the left and kill both of those monsters. Then you can take on the flying monster near the Dragon Zombie. You will probably not be able to accomplish this all in one turn, but you should try and do it since it makes you a lot stronger. Also don't be supprised if Valkyrie is the only one to live. It happened to me alot. ------------ Cursed Woods ------------ On the first screen head to the left and open up the chest(it contains a Eye of Heaven). Now start to head to the right. Keeping going to the right on the next screen and you will eventually find a Icicle Edge Spell Book. On that same screen take the path that leads up. Then head up again. After that start heading all the way to the left. At the very end you will find a path that leads up. So take that and in the next screen walk to the right and you will find a two chests that contain Element Scepter(both of them are trapped so be careful). After that head down twice to that long corrider. Now head to the right and take the first path that leads up. You can then find a Lapis. Head back down and continue to the right. Then take the path the next path you see that leads up. In this room you can find a Flare Crystal. Then continue up again. Save the Game at the save point and get ready for a battle. Valkyrie will walk on the screen and you will see a Gorilla attacking a mans soul. Valkyrie will talk about how she can't allow this. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name: Insane Eddy HP:5200 Recommended Level:5 Attacks: Insance Eddy:Physical EXP:2100 Strategy:I have Sherad switch to Burn Storm for this battle, since it is as easier spell to max out your gauge with. Once you can use your Clinchers this battle will be over in no time. Also if you can get Sheard to use Ifrit Incense this battle is over. After the battle Valkyrie will walk over and put a rest to all this. Now you can grab the two chests that are there. Once will contain the Extreme Guard(Take) and the other will contain the Phoenix Feather(Take). After it is all over you will get 7000 Exp and you can leave. ------ Extras ------ These are optional events you can do. You don't have to do them, but they will generally add more to the story/make you stronger/get you a better ending. Dragon Slayer- This is a very nice weapon. It will kill all Dragons in 1 hit. You can find it by going to Aluze's house in Altoria. Just walk up to his bedroom and then Aluze will come out and grab the weapon. Graveyard Scene- Head to the Graveyard, It is the highest dot that isn't Orange. When you enter Valkyrie will wonder what this place is. She says she can sense a human spirit. Valkyrie will then walk over to the left and then become suprised. She rushs over and you then see two ghosts by the Grave. Valkyrie will ask what they are doing here. She slashes at them once. Valkyrie then looks around and will talk about how the ran away. Valkryie then wonders why the Undead would want to haunt this rock. Valkryie notices that its a Tombstone. After that you can leave. War Goddess Pendant- If you head to Clairmonferan and walk all the way to the right you will enter a little forest. Rourry will the come out and say that you might possibly be able to use this. He then hands you the War Goddess Pendant. It reduces Dark Damage by 50%. Now I just slept for the other periods that I have left. So you should probably do the same. Once you reach 24/24 a message will say that Frei wants to talk to you. ---------------- Sacred Phase 1-2 ---------------- Frei will give you a greeting, then reports on how the battle is going. In case you care here are my statitics: Starting: Earth God Race:24 Van God Race:31 Other:25 After: Earth God Race:23 Van God Race:31 Other:26 Frei then told me that I need to work harder and stop messing around. Anyways after this Frei will give you 2250 Materlize Points. The Frie will describe what they need. Here is what I got(might be the same for you/ might be different). Hero Possibility:50 Fighter Tactics Leadership Identify Frei then gave me a good luck and I was onto Chapter 2. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- 4.3)Chapter 2 ------------- Events: Path 1)Meeting with Rofar. Path 2)Search the Dragon Caves. Path 3)Meeting with Jake Linnas. Path 4)Search the Nolsof Swamp. Path 5)Search the Forgotten Caves.

So I would concentrate spending the CP on the skills neccassary. Anyways use your Soul Concentration and it will tell you to head to, Altoria. ----- Rofar ----- When you enter Altoria you will see Roy(Aluze's Brother), sitting in Jail. Roy will be thinking about Aluze. The screen will then shift and you will see Rofar asking what happened to Aluze. The Knight Captain will explain that Aluze killed Princess Sherad, Ronbelt, and many other soldiers. Rofar will the get mad at his father. There will then be a flash- back scene where you see Aluze and Rofar practicing. Aluze will then beat Rofar and Rofar will say that he wished he could be a genius too. Aluze will say that it's not genius, it is just a "Distinction" that Aluze and Rofar have. Aluze then walks over and picks up the Ax. Aluze asks Rofar to grab the Ax, and then they can practice more. The scene will the come back to the present. You will see Rofar walking along when he overhears a Soldier talking about the Fighting Genius had murdered. Rofar will then drop his head and become sad. The other soldier will ask if he might have went berserk. There will be another flashback where you see Aluze, Rofar and his Father standign around. Aluze will be talking about how the world is going to hell, but about how it's slowly becoming better. The Knight Captian will say that he sure has an optimist point of view. The scene will then switch to the top of a Mountain. The Wind will blow some leaves and then Aluze will get up. Aluze will notice that Rofar likes the wind. The wind will blow again. You will now see Rofar talking to a Blue-Haired Swordsman and Woman Swordsman in a White Outfit. Rofar will be asking them if they think they can help him get Roy. When neither of them say anything, Rofar will then say that is what he thought and start to walk away. The Woman(Selia) will tell him to wait. Selia asks him if he is willing to die just to see this person. Rofar will not answer. Selia will then talk about the ideals of justice and that if he was innocent he would have been found innocent. The Rofar will say he has to do it for this person. The Blue-Haired Swordsman(Kashel)will ask if that is the "Distinction" that Aluze always talked about. Rofar will then get mad at Kashel. But then Rofar talks about how it has to be this way. Kashel will then tell him it's his own death and he can do it however he likes. Then Kashel will tell him that he should want to live. Rofar the goes on about how he has to help Roy for Aluze. Selia will seem sad at this. Rofar then says he has to do it no matter what. Then a message comes up on the screen telling about how Rofar can't run away from this. Rofar will now be outside the jail cell of Roy. Rofar will think about how his father's name will be corrupted in the Law. Rofar then goes on about how he and his father have a different sense of Justice. After this the screen will go blank and you will be back on the world map, but now you have Rofar in your party. Make sure that you can afford to give him a Spinning Spear(it's a nice little weapon). Anyways use your Soul Concentration. It will tell you to goto the Dragon Caves. ------------ Dragon Caves ------------ Start by heading to the left. After that take the ladder down until you see the first ledge on your left. Jump to that ledge and then walk to the left until you reach another ladder that leads up(should be about two or three screens). Don't climb the ladder up(it just lead to a exit). Instead just continue to the left and when you can just fall down to the bottom. Then continue on to the left. Then just jump down that switch-back path(you can also grab a Zebori in the chest). Once you reach the bottom head to the right. Then continue walking along the path for about three screens. You will then reach a room that has a Save Point. Save your game and then head in to the next room and fall down. Then head to the left. You will find a room where you can pick up a Foxglove, Aconite, and the skill Slanting Rain. Then leave this room and jump up until you can enter the room to the right. When you enter Valkyrie will walk up to a Dragon. Valkyrie will asks if this could possibly be the Dragon that was causing all the trouble. The Lesser Dragon will notice that its The War Goddess Valkyrie. Valkyrie will then explain that for sometime they have known a dragon was here. Anyways they go back and forth with the standard dialogue, and eventually you will enter a battle with the Lesser Dragon. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name:Lesser Dragon HP:9000 Recommended Level:8-9 Attacks:Physical EXP:5000 Strategy:If you want to you can use the Dragon Slayer and take the dragon out in one hit, but actually you don't really need to. It only took me one round to finsh the Lesser Dragon off. I used a party of Valkyrie, Aluze, Rofar and Sherad and using all of there attacks + clinchers it was over very quickly. But remeber if you have trouble with this battle you can always use the Dragon Slayer. After the battle you will see two artifacts. Once is the Black Spear "Onikokutenshi" and the other is the Nakatana "Hirun"(Scarlet Lotus). I reccommend that you take the Hirun and refuse the Onikokutenshi. After this head out the way you came, but when you get passed the room that had the Zebori in it, continue to the right. When you get to this room head into the cave that is in the middle. When you are in this room head to the left and you will be able to pick up some more treasue(you can find a Lapis and a Burn Strom in here). After that head back out, and if you jump up you can find a Save Point. If you keep jumping up you will then be able to find a Foxglove, Lapis, Nightshade, and somthing else. Once you get all those fall back down. The just start heading to the right and follow the path and you will eventually reach a ladder. But, before you climb it, head to the left. You will then find a Short Spear and a Cool Dazzel. Once you have all of that, just climb the ladder, and head to the right and you will be finshed with the Dragon Caves. When you use your Sould Concentration it will tell you goto Clairmonferan. ----------- Jake Linnas ----------- You will now be in a bar, and a man with a white shirt will then walk in. This man looks as though he has losed the use of one of his arms. The Big Man(Gunther) will notice that it is Jake. Jake will say nothing. Gunther will then talk about how it has been a long time since he has seen Jake. Gunther will then walk over to Jake and ask him what he is doing here. Gunther then talks about how they can't have a hero like Jake here and then punches Jake hard in the shoulder. Jake will then talk about how he can't run away. Now you see Jake leaveing the bar. As he does he runs into a young boy. The boy will be startled. The boy will then notice Jake is injured and apoligize. Jake will just put his hand on the boy's head. Jake will then walk off the screen. The scene then changes and you will see two men in a large circular room. Man A will say that someone he knows saw Jake Linnas in the town today. Man B will inquire about this. Man B then continues by asks if they know where he is now. Man A will say that they can find out quick enough. The scene will then change and you will see Jake standing in an old moss covered house. Jake will be talking to himself. Jake will be wondering why he came back here after what happened with the King. The scene shifts to the outside of Clairmonferan. Jake will be walking along in the dark when he notices somthing. Jake will asks who is there. You will then see somebody standing in a "Ninja-like" outfit. Jake will then pull out his gun, but when he does the "Ninja" leaves. Jake runs over and notices that he left a letter. You will then be back in the circular room. Man A will then walk up to B and tell him that they delivered the letter and that's why... Man B will wonder what he means by that. Man B will keep wondering, eventually realizing that Man A knows somthing. The scene the comes back and you see Jake walk in. Man A will greet Jake. Just as Jake walks over to Man A, two arrows come out and kill Jake. Man B shows up and the talk about how the King should be happy. The scene will then shift to the young boy sitting outside the bar. The Boy will hear two mean talking about how the Knight could never resist a fight. The Young boy will then bow his head. You will now see Valkyrie and Jake talking with each other. Jake will say that his father was talking about this. Jake will then talk about how he has no regrets what happend to the King. Valkyrie asks even if it mean his death. Jake will talk about how he was a Knight and he just couldn't make it in time to save the town. Jake then goes on talking about how 10 years ago, his father was telling him he couldn't have done anything differnt. Valkyrie will then tell him that he is weak, but for a human he isn't all that bad. You will now be on the World Map. Use your Soul Concentration and it will tell you to goto Nolsof Swamp. ------------ Nolsof Swamp ------------ Start by walking to the left until you can walk up. When your on the next screen start walking to the right through the swamp. When you reach the end you will find a chest containing the Shadow Servant spell. But watch out, the chest has a trap on it. After that walk all the way to the left until you reach a new screen. You should now be near a hill with a switch-back path that leads up. Take that path to the top where you will find another Shadow Servant spell. Then go up where it will let you. You will find a Holy Crystal near the right wall. After that head down and take the path that leads to the right. Then just follow the path right until you can head down. Now just keep going left until you can head. And you will be back at the hill. The reason I had you do that is so you can gain a more Experience by killing all those monsters. Anyways work your way back to the area that you started at and this time head keep going to the left. Once you get passed the swamp you will find that you are near a place that you can go down, so do it. Once you are on this screen, just walk to the left and kill those two monsters. Then come back and go down where it will let you. On this screen walk over to the right and you will see a huge swamp. When you get near the tree Valkyrie will notice that she can cut it. Have her swing at the tree and it will fall down and create a path for you(You also get 5000 Experince Points for doing it too). So start walking along the tree and eventually you will reach a bag. When you open it, you will find that it contains the skill Charge. You will also see a path that lets you walk up, so take that path. Now that tree that you think blocking your way actually is a fake. Just Jump and you will find a path that will let you through. When you get to the other side you will find a Holy Crystal, the skill Wait Reaction, an Eye of Heaven, and last a Element Scepter. When you have all those head back to where you found the skill Charge. If you keep walking to the left you will find a path that lead down. Just go in this path and you will find a Save spot to the left. Save and go back to the screen that had the Charge Skill. Keep walking all the way to the left. Eventually you will reach a path that will let you go down(it will be just before the save point). When you take it head to the right and grab the bag, then goto the first swamp and open the chest you see. It will contain the Cure Condition skill. Now if you walk to the right you will find a chest hidden in the swamp. It contains the Naken:"Flare Baselard", which is essential if you want to beat the Dragon Zombie and don't have the Dragon Slayer. But, don't go yet. You can still find a Demon Slayer (kills anything with Demon in it's name in one hit) and a Crystal. They will both be in the swamp to the left. Anyways once you have all of those items, head back to the very first Save Point. But, this time head to the left. Keep going left until you can take a path that leads down. Now, before you walk to the left, Make sure you have the Dragon Slayer of the Naken:"Flare Baselard" equipped. Otherwise you will lose this battle. Then fall down to the left and Valkrie will automatically walk through the mud. She will come apon a Dragon Zombie. Valkyrie will wonder what the Dragon could want here. Anyways you have to take the Dragon out, so you get in a battle. ----------- Boss Battle ----------- Name:Dragon Zombie HP:18000 Recommended Level:10 Attacks:Physical Shadow Servant EXP:6000 Strategy:This is a very difficult if you do not have the Naken:"Flare Baselard" or the Dragon Slayer. Anyways if you have the Dragon Slayer it is over in one hit. If not it will take some time. And you will need to be careful since this is the first boss that can actually kill you, even if you pay attention. Then just try and get a big combo going and you will win. Also during the second round Valkyrie will tell you how to find out the enemies weakness by using the Spectecles. Anyways, just make sure you have the Dragon Slayer and this battle will be now problem. Once the battle is over continue walking throught the swamp to the right. You will come apon two chests eventually, both of them artifacts. One contains Dryaid Bark(Leave) and the other contains the Tombstone Sheet(Leave). After you have grabbed both of the treasures you will get a message saying you received 20000 Experience Points. Then just head to the right and you will find a exit that will lead you to the world map. Use your Soul Concentration and it will tell you to goto the Forgotten Caves, again? Oh, by the way. I use those 20000 Experience to have Belinas gain 2 levels with the Blue Gray Scarf equipped. I then spend all of his CP on what Frei wanted in the previous chapter. So I recommend that you do that too. And then send him up. But, make sure you strip him of the Scarf(it's too valuable to lose). --------------- Forgotten Caves --------------- I couldn't figure out how to obtain any treasure here. I went as fast as I could but, still didn't find anything. So just use this as a chance to fight more enemies. Once you are done, I couln't figure anything else to do on this chapter. So just sleep until it is time for Chapter 3. ---------------- Sacred Phase 2-3 ---------------- Frei will greet you again and give you an update on the battle. Here is how my stats went. Earth God Race:23 Van God Race:31 Other:26 The results after where unchange. Anyways Frei will then let you look at any character you sent up. You can do a few things with Belinas(not really important though). After that Frei will give you 6780 Materlize Points. Frei then continues by telling you what you need(Hint:Jake) Hero Possibility:65 Bow User Find Trap Survival After that you will be on Chapter 3. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- 4.4)Chapter 3 ------------- Events: Path 1)Meeting with Kashel. Path 2)Meeting with Jun. Path 3)Meeting with Yumeru. Path 4)Search the Golla Church. Characters: Path 1)Kashel Path 2)Jun Path 3)Yumeru Bosses: Path 4)Noble Vampire and 2x Wall of Wisps Skills:Guts Adapt Illusion Items:Guts Adapt Illusion Eye of Heaven Fairy Ring Poison Check Ether Scepter Mithril Ore ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- First of all, make Jake into what Frei wants and then send him up to Valhalla. Once you have done that, use your Soul Concentration and it will tell you to goto Camille Village. ------ Kashel ------ When you enter Camille Village you will notice that everyone has been turned into Stone. The camera will move to the left and eventually you will see Kashel and Selia. Selia will comment about how cruel this was. Kashel will say that Word wasn't wrong. This had to have been done by some Stone- like creature. Selia will throw out a Basilisk, Cockatrice, and then a Gorgon. Selia will then say that has to have been it. Kashel will say that it couldn't have been, since the people would have been crushed. Selia will then throw out a Medusa as a possiblity. Kashel will say that was what he was thinking. Kashel then says that they will have to get someone to help these people. Selia will agree. They then walk to the right and come across an old sword. Kashel will wonder what that sword is doing there. Kashel then walks up to the sword a grabs it. He then notice that the sword is good. Kashel then notice there is an enscription on it. Selia will come up and notice that its called Ruin. Selia then walks up and note that it looks as if it could be a match for the famous Grand String. Kashel will be supprised. After that Selia will walk in the door and note that even the ruins are turned to stone. She then yells for Kashel to come quickly. Kashel will say he realize somthing. He was talking to a child who told him about how Monsters had been sealed away. Kashel then realizes this must be the place the kid was talking about. Selia won't answer. Kashel then continues that they have to go back and save the people. Selia will agree. Then a mysterious voice then start talking to Kashel. Kashel will then want the voice to come out. Selia will wonder what Kashel is doing. A flying creature will then come out and stab Kashel. As Kashel is sent flying he says that he has to protect...and then all of a sudden the bottle starts to glow. You will now see Valkyrie holding the bottle. Valkyrie asks him why he wants to save this. Kashel will be supprised it's the War Goddess Valkyrie. Kashel will then say that he feels like he is in a dream. After this he inquire as to what Valkyrie wants to say to him. Valkyrie tells him that they are going to live. Kashel will wonder about this. Valkyrie then repeats that they are going to live. You will then see Kashel disappear and Valkyrie carefully place the bottle on the ground. You will then see Selia come over and pick it up. She is supprised it isn't broken, but then feels bad for Kashel. You will now see Selia with a little girl. Selia will be talking about how she doesn't have the strength to live and that she misses him. Selia then falls down crying. You will now be back on the world map. I put Kashel in my party, since I like him. After that use your Soul Concentration. You will then be told to goto Firan. So do it. --- Jun --- You will see a Young Woman crying in a shrine in the Rain. The Young Woman will then walk to the left where a old man is standing. The Old Man (Listed simply as a Shinto Priest) tells they young woman to go home and get some sleep. The Young Woman(Ashie) says that her brother won't be doing anything anyways. Ashie then talks about how if only her brother hadn't have gone on that Journey. The Shinto Priest will agree. You will then be in a town scene with three young man. Townsman 1 will ask about a Demon. Townsman 2 will ask where this Demon is. The Man(simply listed as "Samurai") will say that he will go. You will now be in the Demons Lair and you will see that Samurai has lost. The Demon say it was a nice try, but today isn't your day. The Samurai will then scream. You will then be back and the Shinto Priest will talk about how it was lucky the other two survived. Ashie then will tell him that she lost her brother in the process. The Shinto Priest then goes on about how he understands and about how he has always protected her. Ashie then agrees with that. The Shinto Priest says that she can come back anytime she wants. The Shinto Priest then says not to worry, her brother wont be attaked by any undead. You will be back in the Demons Lair now. Valkyrie will walk up to him. The Demon says that he will add her soul to his collection. Valkyrie will then walk forward and says "Soul? Oh, I don't have one of those..." She then takes the Demon out with one slash.
