Once inside immediately run to the left & speak with the man in brown clothing & a purple hat.
This man is the acting merchant in town selling you the best weapons & armors at this point. There is also a man north of the entrance & just south of the Chiefs House in similar clothes who acts as an ARMs Meister. Run around town breaking crates & inspecting barrels to find the hidden items which at this point are quite worth the search. Once you have finished searching speak to the Chief in the large house in the middle of Baskar Village. He will teach you about the Demons, Elw & the Guardians of 1000 years ago & claim you are the Callers of Zephyr, the west wind of Hope. He will then send you to the Wind Callers Altar which is accessed from the north gate in Baskar Village. The guard will allow you through, unfortunately Zephyr will not answer you at this point. Once you obtain the Love & Courage -Rune Zephyr will answer. If you go into the Chiefs hut & talk to the other man inside you can get a free rest. Also stock up on Heat Salves as the boss in Mount Zenom will frequently paralyse you. Leave town, run north west & when you see the strange stone circle on the ground run north to reach Mount Zenom. Remember the strange stone circle here as later on you can use it to obtain a rune. |

Once inside enter the cave behind the guard.
Walk to the right & push the grey statue up until it begins to glow blue. Any grey statue must be glowing blue in order for the next path to open so just remember that. Go upstairs. Run to the right following the path until you leave the cave. Run west until you reach the trees. Look beside the south tree to obtain the Heal Berry. Look at the north tree carefully as the Lucky Card is slightly hidden. Run west & before entering the cave grab the Blue Circlet just to your left, then enter the cave. The Blue Circlet will prevent Paralysis which will be useful for the upcoming boss. Follow the path to the end & use the Lighter to burn the brown bushes in your path. Once you done burning the bushes run north & upstairs. Burn the next set of bushes continuing south & through the door. Run east until you reach the intersection. Ignore the cave entrance to the east & run up the stairs grabbing the Secret Sign to the northwest. Go back down the stairs & enter the cave door you ignored. Follow the path until the intersection, choose to go south. The far left statue must be pushed right for the path north to be opened. Run north & go upstairs. Continue along burning all the bushes blocking your path & exit the cave at the end. Go down the stairs to the south using Hanpan to retrieve the 5 Heal Berries. Once that is finished try to return up the stairs & boulders will come crashing down giving Jack his next Fast Draw Hint. This new fast draw, Meteor Dive will be your best friend until you gain Magnum Fang so I recommend learning it while here in Mount Zenom as well as using your Secret Signs to reduce the MP usage to 1. Save one Secret Sign, for you will need it soon to acquire another Fast Draw Hint in Adelhyde. From the top of the stairs run all the way west grabbing the Potion Berry at the end & enter the door after that. Progress through the cave burning the bushes as you go stepping on the button you revealed & running north until you go upstairs. The button is under the bush at the 4th bend, the bend turning north after climbing the stairs. Run south burning the bushes on you way out & run through the door. Once outside run south & at the intersection run east & through the door. Once inside run north turning left & pushing the out of place grey statue up until it glows blue. Run to the far right pushing the out of place grey statue there up until it glows blue. The door in between the sets of statues is now open so go on inside. In this room is a monster called Devonova which drops 300 EXP as well as a Revive Fruit, so this may be a good place to level up & restock your supply of Revive Fruits supposing you can survive its Fire Breath which hits for <175HP. The good thing about Devonova is that it is weak against water therefore making Stoldark hit for >1100HP. Run to the north & open the chest for Cecilias 3rd best accessory, Mystic Word. Exit the cave entirely until you return outside. Make certain that you do not use Escape after the boss battle rather returning to this area because there is a chest here containing a Crest Graph. Run to the west until you reach the door & enter it. Run north & go upstairs. Here you will find the save point room, now make sure you save if you have not yet reached level 10 as that is what I recommend for you before fighting the boss. Run south to exit back outside. Run north east until you reach the door, enter it. Inside this room continue north & push every grey statue you see on the way towards the center aligning them with their blue counterparts. Once your finished, the sealed door to the north will open for you to finally reach the statue. Restore your HP/MP at this point as well as rearming Rudy as the boss Orga Widow will appear in this area. Equip the Blue Circlet onto one of your party members to prevent your entire party from being paralyzed throughout the fight until you condition green. I recommend using it on Cecilia as she will be your assist character & she can use Mystic with Heat Salve to group cure your party. As the statue is broken by the same beam of light that destroyed Adelhyde, Belselk appears & summons Orga Widow to attack you. |
Boss Fight: Orga Widow
|
HP: 5000
EXP: 900 Gella: 990 Recommended Level: 10-12 Orga Widow is one of the more powerful bosses at this point so you are going to want to be careful when in this fight. She will continuously cast Poison on your party, but that should not be your main concern. Rather be concerned about her skill Capture Web which will damage your party & inflict Paralysis on all of them. If your entire party gets paralyzed then you have no choice but to wait for a condition green hoping you don't get wiped out in the wait. Also, Orca Widow has a weakness to water. If you equipped Blue Circlet on Cecilia then this problem will be less of an issue as you can use Mystic + Heat Salve to cure your party. Now the strategy is as follows. Rudy will continuously be using Hand Cannon & applying Arm Lock On every chance he gets. Jack will be using Meteor Dive every turn unless you need an extra hand with the healing. Cecilia will focus on using 2 spells: Arm. Down x2 & Shield x1 (each party member). Focus on Heal & curing Paralysis from your party. Finally when she can use Summon Guardian make sure the Water Rune is equipped & you should hit for >950HP. If Orga Widow is hitting you before any of your party hits first then cast Slow Down until all your members attack first. |

Since the statue of the God Seal has been broken, the Guardian cannot link with Cecilia so instead you receive the Summit Rune.
The Summit Rune is perfect for Rudy as it increases his VIT & DFP. Run back 5 areas until you reach the intersection going north-west-east with a broken bridge on its south side. This time instead of ignoring the bridge, jump off of it turning west & grabbing the Crest Graph. Use Escape & when you try to exit back to the world map the guard will tell you he felt the breaking of the seal & requests you inform the Elder back at Baskar Village. Return to Baskar Village after the scene with Mother waking. |
Baskar Village
Enter the Elders home & speak to him as he will inform you you must go to Saint Centour & Port Timney to protect the final two statues.
He also informs you of Elw Pyramids & its ability to convert your life into energy to transport you to far away places
He will also give you the Kizim Fire to light the furnace in the pyramid.
Once he is done speaking exit Baskar Village.

Elw Pyramid to Saint Centour
|
Ffrom there run north east until you see a pyramid sticking out of the forest & enter it. All the Elw Pyramids are located inside forests so if you get lost looking for them then search for sections of forests. Speak to the monument in the middle of the room. It informs you to light the furnce & the way to get there is to enter the path behind the waterfall. Look at the west side of the pyramid where the water is flowing down, behind that is the stairs so descend there. Run to the right & enter the door to the north. Walk to the furnace & use the Kizim Fire to activate the pyramid. Return to the start & head north into the room with the green circle. Step onto the circle & you will be teleported to the Elw Pyramid near Saint Centour. As you rematerialise Stoldark informs you the Holy Statue is in this land. Run south until you reach the room with water. Run to the entrance of the pyramid & walk right noticing the chest across the water. Use Hanpan to get yourself a Hard Guard for Jack & then exit the pyramid. From here run all the way south until you reach Saint Centour just beside the mountains. |
