Welcome to my Rune Factory 3 Site

Although HarvestMoonForever remains my primary site, you will find all my posts and Guides for Rune Factory 3 on this site. I created a site for Grand Bazaar in this manner and it has proven quite useful. The actual Guides as always will be published by IGN as well.

Introduction


Monsters always have been an integral part of any Rune Factory game but Rune Factory 3 is unique in that the Main Character is half-human and half-monster. A victim of amnesia like all Rune Factory protagonists, he has the power to transform himself into a golden Wooly, although he will have forgotten this at the start of the game. It is only when you defeat a mischievous Raccoon in the heart of Privera Forest that you will regain your power of transformation, although most of your memories of life prior to your arrival (as a Wooly incidentally) in Sharance will remain lost in the clouds of amnesia.

Transformation into a Wooly is reserved mainly for combat situations where your Character wishes to use his Monster abilities against other Monsters. As a Wooly, his conversational skills, when speaking to humans will be limited to variations on the sound 'Bah'. As villagers have mixed feelings about Monsters at best, he will be able to transform only when he is alone.

Oddly enough, although your Character will not be able to transform into a Wooly in the presence of villagers, he CAN ride a Monster into any home or shop without causing any comment whatsoever.

When he visits the Univir Settlement, your Character must transform into a Wooly first and his conversation with members of the Univir Tribe will not be limited to the usual Wooly 'Bah'. In fact, members of the tribe have the same verbal skills as any intelligent human. When fighting alongside any member of the Univir Tribe, your Character must remain in Wooly form as well, so ultimately you will be forced to increase your Combat Skills both as a human and as a Monster.


Basic Rules of Dungeons


Dungeons in Rune Factory are places that are ruled by specific Seasons inhabited by Monsters. Players familiar with the series will find Rune Factory 3 similar to previous games in most respects.

You will find a purple crystal in the shape of a pyramid at the entrance to any Dungeon. This is a Save Point. It is a good idea to save your game before you enter any hostile territory.

Monsters are screen-specific for the most part in Dungeons and are spawned by Generators on the same screen. In Rune Factory 3, these Generators can be of different colours. When you destroy them, you can obtain an Item randomly. The items obtained from destroyed Generators are elemental Crystals. The colour of the Generator will indicate the Element that rules it and any Crystal obtained will correspond with the same Element.

Gaius: Sometimes you can find crystals when you destroy those portal things that the monsters come out of. And you can get different crystals depending on the colour of the portal you destroy.

Whenever you leave a Dungeon screen and then re-enter, both Monsters and Generators will respawn.


Treasures in Dungeons


Dungeons in any Rune Factory game are places where you can find Items that you may or may not be able to obtain anywhere else. War Trophies are Items 'dropped' by defeated Monsters in Dungeons. In Rune Factory 3, a Monster when tamed may leave an Item on the floor of his Barn chamber each morning but it may not be one of his War Trophies.

In other Rune Factory games, Generators had to be destroyed if you wished to keep Monsters from respawning on a screen but in Rune Factory 3, you may find an Elemental Crystal when you destroy a Generator. There are more Elemental Crystals in RF3 than in previous games in the series as Light and Dark Crystals have been added to the Items List.

Where foraging on any tillable land is concerned, most Items simply can be harvested by pressing the A Button, but Bamboo Shoots are rooted in the soil. You therefore need to use any sharp Tool or Weapon to sever the roots from the soil, then press A to harvest the Bamboo Shoot.

In dungeon areas, you will find the usual seasonal array of coloured Grasses, Medicinal Herb and Antidotal Herb as well as Branches, Rocks and Weeds on the Fields, but often Items can be found as well along the edges of any screen. Investigate wherever you see a red arrow to find Crops, Flowers and even Cooked Dishes!

When you take a tame Monster into a Dungeon, he will display an icon of a Treasure Chest over his head whenever you are close to an Item.

Incidentally, the actual Treasure Chests that appear randomly on certain screens in every Dungeon contain random items that can include Seeds. The Seeds found in any Treasure Chest need not be specific seasonally to the Dungeon in which you found them. In other words, you may find Summer or Winter Seeds in a Treasure Chest in the Spring Dungeon.

At the start of the first Spring, it is useful to save your game at the entrance to Privera Forest, then enter and exit repeatedly to find Treasure Chests on the first screen of that Dungeon. Many valuable Items can be obtained that can be shipped for income at a point in the game where you will be rather limited in funds.


Tips from other Characters


Shino: Here's a tip for when you get tired fighting in the dungeons... Look for some blue flowers or crystals. If you cut the flowers or break the crystals, you'll find runes that will replenish your RP.

Some of the tips that you can obtain from Subsidiary Characters include:


Poison Squares and Neutral Agent


Zod: I stepped on a poison puddle the other day. Next time, I'll use Neutral Agent on it!

Poison Puddles or Poison Squares are deep purple in colour and can be found randomly on any Field in a Dungeon. Your Character will be poisoned if he steps in one. More annoyingly, perhaps, is the fact that you will not be able to till the square until the Poison Puddle is removed. The only way to accomplish this is by dumpiing Neutral Agent on the Poison Puddle/Square.


Befriending Monsters with Cooked Dishes


Sally: Feed monsters something you've cooked if you want to be friends.


Save Points as Warnings


Your primary Save Point is in the 'Diary' at your bedside table but there are Save Points at the entrance to each of the Dungeons. You will find another Save Point in any Dungeon near the chamber where a Boss Monster is located. Save Points are purple Crystal Pyramids. In Rune Factory 3, you actually can practice your Combat Skills on them and raise your Skill Levels. When smashed, they will reappear when you exit the screen and re-enter.


Bard: If you find a save point in a dungeon, save. It maeans something dangerous is near.

Sho: There are some people who fight monsters with farm tools. I don't get it.

This hint refers to the fact that every Item has its own unique Stats. Of course, as Shara told you to defeat the first Monster you ever encountered with a Hoe, your Character will be well-aware of the ability to use Tools as Weapons.



Monster Behaviour Guide


One could devote an entire book to Monsters and their habits and indeed, they are an important aspect of any Rune Factory game. Monsters are your antagonists in the Dungeons and in Defeating them, your Character will increase his Skill Levels in Combat as well as obtaining important Items as War Trophies. When tamed, Monsters serve the purpose of Ranch Aniimals and Farm Workers. You can obtain products from them and set them to tasks on your Fields.

You will not be able to tame any Monsters until you have a Monster Barn. The option to build one will be added to Raven's Menu only after you DEFeat the Raccoon in Privera Forest. There is no cost apart from supplying 40 Wood for the project.

When the Barn has been ordered, it will be completed instantly. You therefore can go directly to any Dungeon to tame your first Monster! In Rune Factory 3, you do not use a 'Pet Glove' to tame Monsters. Instead, you need to ply the Monster with Food. The number of Items required to tame the Monster appears to depend partly on the Monster's Strength or Level and on the food Item used. A simple Medicinal Herb or coloured Grass CAN be used to tame a Monster, but you have to give it quite a few before it will be persuaded to come home with you.

When the Monster has been tamed, you will be asked to choose a name for it and you then can keep it with you in the Dungeon or send it to the Barn immediately.

As soon as you arrive at the Barn after taming your first Monster, you will receive a visit from Gaius, who will give you a tutorial about Monster Care, a Brush and 9 Grass. If you have tamed a Wooly, he will give you a pair of Shears as well.

Grass is the ordinary Feed for Monsters in Rune Factory 3. Grass Seeds can be purchased from the Flower Shop from the very start of the game and as Grass is a Multiple Harvest Crop, you can plan ahead by growing some even before you have the ability to tame and house Monsters. Use your Sickle to cut ripened Grass for Monster use.

Monsters provide a wide variety of services in Rune Factory 3 and the precise nature of these always depends on the type of Monster you have tamed. Monsters can accompany you to the Dungeons as battle Companions. There are a few Monsters that can be used for transport as in other Rune Factory games.

Another service Monsters will provide is that of working in your Fields. The system is a little different from other Rune Factory games.

When you speak to a Monster, you will have a number of options:

Take it with you.
Help with the farm.
Return to the Forest of Beginnings.

The choice to take it with you will open a new Menu:

Ride.
Send back to the barn.

If the Monster is one that can be used for Transport, choosing 'Ride' will allow you to mount. If the Monster cannot be used for Transport, you will receive a prompt to that effect. In RF3, any Monster who is being used for Transport can follow you into buildings and when you speak to villagers while mounted, they will ignore the Monster completely! Furthermore, whether mounted or not, if a Monster Companion follows you into your home and you go to sleep, it will be waiting next to your bed when you awaken.

If you choose:
Help on the farm.

Which part of the farm?

You now have the following choices:

Let it decide
Upper Left
Upper Right
Lower Left
Lower Right

Note that only one Monster can be set to any quarter of a Field. You will be cautioned not to set two Monsters to work in the same area as they then may fight. If a Monster has been set to work in a particular quarter, that area will not appear in the Menu when choosing an area for another Monster to tend.

When you have made the assignment for the Monster you will see a new option:

I can ask it to sow the fields if I pay for the seeds and work. What should I do?

Ask to sow seeds.
Don't ask to sow seeds.

Once a Monster is set to work, you will see the following if you speak to it:

The monster is currently assigned to work the upper right of the field. Choices now:

Remove from sowing.
Remove from work.
Take it with you.

You therefore can choose to ask a Monster to accompany you even if it is set to work in the Fields.

Make certain that you have enough Grass as Feed in the Barn for all your Monsters. They will organise their own Feed if the Barn is stocked. Brush each Monster daily and, to raise Heart Levels, feed it a Cooked Dish manually.


Ranch Products and Gifts


In Rune Factory Frontier, a tamed Monster randomly might leave you an offering when you released it to the Forest of Beginnings but if it were not a Monster that produced Ranch Products regularly, you would not receive any Items from your tamed Monsters until then. In Rune Factory 3, on the other hand, there are a number of Monsters who, when tamed, will leave offerings for you in the Barn.

For example, a tame Chipsqueek will leave Fur on the floor of the Barn and a Wooly will leave a Small Fleece, even though you can obtain more Small Fleece from your Woolies by shearing them.


Working with Monsters


As previously discussed, you will not be able to interact socially with any Monsters until you have defeated the Raccoon in Privera Forest. Once that is accomplished, Raven will add the option of ordering a Monster Barn to her Menu. It costs only 40 Wood to build a Barn and when ordered, will be completed instantly.

Your Monster Barn is located in the northwest corner of your Field at the root of the Sharance Tree. When you first arrive at the Barn after taming a Monster, Gaius will appear there to offer a Monster Tutorial.

When you have asked about every aspect of Monsters that interests you, Gaius will give you a Brush as well as 9 portions of Grass. If you have tamed a Wooly, he will provide you with a pair of Clippers as well/

Gaius' Monster Tutorial

How do I raise Monsters?

Gaius: Raven told me that if you give gifts to monsters, it'll make them stronger. Different presents have different effects, though. For example, if you give them a nice dish you've cooked, that works great.

Freyr: Uh, so what should I cook for them...?

Gaius: Uh... I dunno. Ask the monster, I guess. Only the first gift you give them is effective, though.

How do I befriend Monsters?

Gaius: Raising your friendship with monsters is just like raising your friendship with people. It takes effort. Make sure to feed your monsters every day. Your monsters won't like you if you don't feed them, after all. Besides that, if you don't feed them, their health won't recover, so they won't do any work. Also, they'll be deprived of important nutrients if you don't feed them. So, for example, a wooly won't grow wool.

Freyr: So, how much food should I give them per day?

Gaius: One piece of grass is enough for one room. Just place the Grass in the ffed slot on the front of the barn. You can also put it in the box inside the barn that's on the right side, just as you enter. Check the notebook for the amount of food you need and the food you have. Basically, monsters will be happy if they're well-fed, and they'll begin to trust you more. And don't just give them feed... Cook food for them from time to time. They'll appreciate it.

How can monsters help me?

Gaius: Take your monsters outside, and they'll follow and fight alongside you. Some monsters even let you ride them, so you should try it out.
You should give your monsters daily chores to do as well. Sowing seeds, watering crops, harvesting... Your monsters can help you with a variety of chores. But if you want them to sow seeds, it'll cost you money, though.

Freyr: Why does it cost money for the monsters to sow seeds?

Gaius: No idea. Also, if you assign two monsters to work in the same section of your fields, they'll fight. So, be sure to keep them apart. Your fields are very large, though, so it should be okay. Just use the notebook. Your monsters will work hard for you. And the stronger your bond with them, the harder they'll work for you.

When the tutorial is complete:

Gaius: Oh, that's right. Raven wanted you to have these.

Freyr: What are they?

Gaius: It's a Brush and Clippers. They're for taking care of your monsters.

Freyr: How are they used?

Gaius: The Brush is used for brushing your monsters, and the Clippers are for shearing fur from woolies.

Freyr (sweating profusely) Sh-Shearing...?

Gaius: Hm? You look like you're shaking, Freyr. Is something wrong?... Anyway, you should brush your monsters frequently. All monsters seem to enjoy a nice brushing. Oh, and here's some Grass for you, too.


Monster Health


In the same way that soil must rest in Rune Factory 3 in order to continue to produce high quality Crops, tame Monsters must rest from time to time or they will become tired or ill. If a Monster displays any of the status ailment icons, the gift of a Cooked Dish usually will cure it, but you may wish to rotate your Monsters in their chores as well. A Monster who is not in peak condition will not leave a Gift on the floor of the Barn.


Combat Companions and Allies


In every game in the Rune Factory series, you can take a tame Monster with you into combat. If it is a Transport Monster, you can ride it and choose either to fight mounted, using the Monster as your attack tool, or to dismount and fight side by side. In Rune Factory 3, there is a new option to 'Invite' any Character to join you in an excursion to a Dungeon. You can invite any one but only Characters who are at least at Level 3 Friendship will accept your invitation.

While any Character or Monster is part of your 'Party', any healing Spell that you use will affect both your Character and your Companion. Items that you consume, on the other hand, will affect only your Character, but you can FEED any Companion any edible Item in the same way that you would give him/her a Gift.

Any Companion, whether it is a Monster or another Character will earn Skill Points simply by being with you. It therefore is a good idea always to invite either a Monster or another Character to accompany you in order to raise Skill Levels with a view to the future. If your own Character has decent Skill and Experience Levels, a weak Companion can benefit immensely simply by 'going along for the ride'.


Walkthrough: Privera Forest


The Privera Forest, ruled by Spring, is the easiest Dungeon to explore as the Monsters are weaker than those of the Dungeons ruled by later Seasons. Moreover, it is essential to explore the Forest if you wish to regain your power of Transformation into Monster form.


Initiation into Monster Transformation


In the beginning of the first Spring, many Characters will speak of an annoying Raccoon who has been vandalising the town, stealing food and ruining property. After this and after you have completed Well's first Request, when you visit the entrance to Privera Forest, you should experience an Event with Wells that will initiate the first step in the main Plot.

Freyr: I have a strange feeling. Like something's pulling me towards here...

??? What are you up to?

Freyr: Wells?

Wells: You shouldn't wander into Privera unless you're prepared.

Freyr: Why? What's in there?

Wells: Monsters, of course! If you don't have a weapon with you, you're liable to get walloped! And I here that troublesome raccoon is hiding in there, too. It'd be nice if osme one would take care of him.

Freyr: Wells...

Your choices now:

I'll do it.
Sounds too tough for me.

Choose: I'll do it!

Wells: Really?!

Freyr: Sure. I think I can take down a raccoon at least.

Wells: Thank you. Glad to hear it. The monsters in Privera Forest aren't too tough if you're ready for them. Just don't try exploring any other areas yet.

Freyr: Other areas?

Wells: On the west side of town are entrances to Vale River and Sol Terrano Dessert. On the east side, you'll find Oddward Valley. The monsters i n those places are a lot more dangerous than the ones you'll find in Privera Forest. So you'd better stick to Privera Forest until you've got a lot more epxerience fighiting monsters.

Freyr: Got it.

Wells: I shoudl also tell you about Teleport. You can use Teleport when you need to get home fast. If you're i a doungeon, it'll take you to the entrance. if you're in town, it'll take you straight to the Sharance Tree. Open the quick equip menu with L and equip the spell to X or Y. It doesn't use any RP, so you can use it any time. Teleport is a special ability. You can't removed it, so you'll always have it with you.

Freyr: Sounds useful. I'll try it out.

He begins to leave, then:

Wells: (!) And don't you go bringing any monsters back into town! I hate those danged things!

Me (with tear) Right. You're not a fan of monsters. Got it.

Once you have experienced this Event, you need to explore Privera Forest to find the two screens on either side of the river that contain two Statues each. By pressing A next to any of the four Statues, you will be able to rotate it. A prompt on the ground between the two Statues on either side will inform you that once the Statues face one another, the door will open.

It is not the two Statues on the same side of the river that need to face one another, but the two matching Statues of each pair. One will be found on either side of the river. Turn each Statue therefore so that its face gazes across the river. When this is accomplished, a stairway will open on both sides of the river.

You now need to descend each stairway to discover that the bridge to which they lead is broken on both sides. You will be required to find some one who is able to fix the bridge.

If you speak to Wells, he will recommend both Gaius and Daria for the task. When you speak to Gaius, he will tell you to ask Daria for help.

Daria will agree to perform the task and will create a Rainbow Bridge instantly in an Event. You now can cross the bridge on either side to a small platform. A set of stairs can be found on the right of the platform. It will lead you to the Raccoon.

The Raccoon is a boss Monster although he will appear fairly innocuous initially. The gate behind you will shut as soon as you confront him, so that you will not be able to retreat.

It is not too difficult to defeat the Raccoon although your first defeat of him will cause him to tranform into a monstrous version of his smaller self. Near the end, he will acquire two Shadow selves who will aid him. When he is defeated, he will drop a special item in the form of a Raccoon Leaf.

You then will be directed to explore an area to the east where you will find a glowing orb on a dais. Press A to touch the Orb and you will regain your own powers of transformation.

Your Character now will have the power to transform himself into a Wooly during battles. When in Monster form, he will be able to execute special moves using the A, B, X and Y Buttons.

Oddly enough, although your Character will not be able to transform into a Wooly in the presence of villagers, he CAN ride a Monster into any home or shop without causing any comment whatsoever.


Building a Monster Barn


It is only when you have defeated the Raccoon in Privera Forest that you will be given the opportunity to build a Monster Barn.

When you speak to Raven at the Smithy after defeating the Raccoon, you will experience a dialogue with her as follows:

Raven: Why did you defeat the monster in Privera Forest?

Freyr: Well, it seemed like it was causing problems for every one. I really wish I hadn't had to...

Raven: Even though it was a monster?

Freyr: Well, it's not like all monsters are bad or anything...

Raven: I see.. We can build you a monster barn if you give us some of your wood.

Freyr: A monster barn...?

Raven: Just talk to Gaius or me when we're working.

Freyr: Wait... I'm still confused...

Raven: What?

Now when you speak to her, a new option will appear in the Menu:

I've come to talk.
I've come to buy.
I want a barn.
Never mind.

Raven: To build a barn, we'll need 40 wood. Is that okay?

After you confirm the order, she will tell you:

Raven: Now you can befriend monsters you find in the dungeons and take them back with you. Monsters will come home with you if you give them food.

Freyr: Oh, really? Thanks, I'll try it out!

Raven: But they won't befriend you if they think you are weaker than they are... So don't get eaten by mistake...

Freyr: I... I'll be careful...

The range of Weapons and Equipment that she sells will be expanded as well and some Items that only appeared randomly prior to this as Special Deals now will be added to each of the Categories.

When you have met the members of the Univir Tribe and the Sharance Tree is expanded, her Menu will expand again.


Walkthrough: Sol Terrano Desert


After defeating the Raccoon in Privera Forest, you will experience a very brief encounter when you approach the Sharance Tree on your way home. A figure standing near the Tree, seeing you, will bolt towards the path in the west that leads to the Desert. When you first enter the entrance to the Sol Terrano Desert after this, you will catch a momentary glimpse of the figure again before it disappears into the Desert.

Wells will approach you at the entrance to the Desert, warniing you not to enter. Obviously, the Desert is the next destination for you if you wish to make progress in the main Plot!


Univir Settlement


When you begin to explore the Sol Terrano Desert, you should experience an Event when you first arrive at a narrow defile in the north. Here is the entrance to the Univir Settlement, a fabled tribe of creatures who, led by the 'Horned Girl' Kuruna, have declared unrelenting war against humanity.

You will be unable to enter the Settlement, in fact, until you have transformed into your Wooly persona. When you have done this, you will be welcomed warmly and urged to join their cause.

Karuna is the 'Elder' and leader of the Univir. You need to speak to her in order to experience the following dialogue:

Kuruna: Do you know the town nearby? The people there ran us univir out of their town! (with cross hurt)

Freyr: Really?

Kuruna; Yes, univir and humans used to live together.

Did something happen?

Kuruna: ... I am not sure.

Freyr: ...

Kuruna: i don't know the reason. It was before I was born. But we were exiled, and now we live here. They are all savages! So you should be careful not to wander too much outside. The humans might do something to you.

Freyr (She really hates them. I wonder what happened...) (Maybe Wells knows something.)

Introduce yourself to the handsome dwarf Zaid and to Ondorus, then return to your home to experience an Event with Wells.

When you return to the Sharance Tree, you will experience an Event with Wells.

Freyr: (Huh?) The Sharance Tree grew...?

Wells: (!) What in the world...?

He walks up to me. Freyr now is in human form although he never transformed after leaving the Univir Settlement.

Wells: Have you been feeding the Sharance Tree a special fertiliser or something?

Freyr: No, I didn't do anything.

Wells: What could have caused this, then?

Freyr: Um, Wells. Did you know about the univir's camp?

Wells: Yes.

Freyr: Is that why you told me not to go into the desert?

Wells: Yes, I didn't want you to run into that camp of human-hating monsters. I'll bet their elder kicked you out the second she laid eyes on you.

Freyr: Huh? Oh, yeah! S-She sure did. Because I looked totally human, of course.

Wells: I thought so.

Freyr: Thought the elder did say something about how the univir lived in this town until they were chased out. Do you know anything about that?

Wells: All I know is that happened a long, long time ago. There aren't any records of what happened or why.

Freyr: I see...

Wells: Freyr...

Freyr: Yes?

Wells: Don't do anything foolish.

Freyr: What?

Wells: We're better off without the univir.

Freyr: But...

Wells: Humans and monsters were never meant to live together. It's just not natural.

He walks off.

Freyr (with black cloud) watches him leave.

Freyr: Wells hates the univir just as much as they hate humans. But why do they hate each other so much? Maybe I should go talk to Kuruna again.

Before doing so, you can enter your home to discover how an upper floor has been added. Shara now will appear, whatever the hour to suggest that the empty room upstairs could be a perfect work area where a forge, pharmacy and workshop could be installed. You now will have the ability to craft items after visiting Raven's Smithy to order a Forge or Workshop. When you visit the Chemist to speak to Marian, the option to build a Pharmacy will be added to her Menu.

Incidentally, the only item in the new room upstairs will be a Storage Chest. Sad to say, it is the same Storage Chest that you have in your original chamber and no new slots will have been added to it.

When you visit Raven's Shop now:

Raven: The Sharance Tree got bigger...?

Freyr: Yeah, I've got a new room in there now!

Raven: I see... Gaius said that if you wanted, we could put a forge and workshop in your house...

Freyr: What? Really?

Raven: Well, as long as you have enough gold and wood... Just be careful... Gaius may make it look easy, but forging is a lot of work...

Freyr: Thanks for the heads up.

Raven: Don't mention it. Let us know when you'd like them built...

Freyr: Will do! Thanks!

Now a new option will appear when you access her Menu:

I want a Forge/Workshop:
Forge:
Cost: 5000G, 100 Wood
Workshop:
Cost: 3000G, 50 Wood

When you next speak to Marian at the Apothecary Shop, she will offer a new option to create a Pharmacy.


Walkthrough: Skelafang and the Second Orb


If you wish to move the story forward, you need to return to the Univir Settlement to receive instructions from Kuruna. Note here that there is a primary Quest for Kuruna which must be distinguished from the Owl Requests initiated by Kuruna as well as Zaid and Ondorus.

The primary Quest by Kuruna requires that you accompany Zaid to two new areas in the desert to obtain special items. The first item consists of Dragon Bones from an area in the southeast. When you give the Dragon Bones to Kuruna, she then will direct you to obtain a Cactus Flower in an area in the southwest.

Both of these areas have voracious carnivorous plants in the sand that can damage your Character severely if his levels are low and he is not equipped properly for defence. Zaid will fight the Monsters in the area with you, but if his Energy Bar reaches zero, he will fall to the ground until you have defeated all Monsters on the screen.

When you have obtained the Cactus Flower, return to the Settlement to experience an Event. While you were on your expedition, a Monster attacked and the Univir Tribe fear that it will be only a matter of time until the camp is overrun.

You will volunteer to fight the Monster and Kuruna will open the gate north of the Settlement.

You now have to defeat the Skelafang Dragon. It appears to be fueled by an energy cube that, when you have smashed all its bones, will cause it to re-assemble. The worst damage to your Character occurs when the skeleton has been smashed and the cube is in the process of regenerating the Dragon. It will mount a whirling attack with its tail. The Dragon will reassemble a few times before it finally is defeated. You definitely will obtain Dragon Bones from Skelafang's skeleton and you may obtain Fish Fossils and a common Skull as well.

The Desert is strewn with dinosaur bones but the Dragon Bones that you obtained initially for Kuruna are quite different from the Dragon Bones obtained as a War Trophy after defeating Skelafang. The former falls into the category of a 'Present' while the latter can be used to upgrade Items.

When you have collected the War Trophies from Skelafang, go north to find a second Orb similar to the one you found in Privera Forest after defeating the Raccoon. When you activate the Orb, you will recover a few more memories. Make certain that you give the Cactus Flower to Kuruna before you return to the Sharance Tree.


2nd Expansion of the Sharance Tree


When you return to the Sharance Tree, you will experience a little Event with Sakuya. She will offer to give you some 'lunch' if you come to the Inn to collect it later. When you enter the screen of the Inn, you will experience an Event that will lead you ultimately to the next Dungeon.


Furniture at the General Store


Meanwhile, the practical effect of defeating Skelafang and finding the second Orb is a second expansion to the Sharance Tree which will allow you to add new furniture in the form of a Double Bed, a Bookshelf and a larger Storage Box. These new options can be found on the Menu at the General Store.


Text of the Skelafang Quest


Kuruna: Oh, perfect timing. I wanted to ask you to run an errand for me.

Freyr: An errand?

Kuruna: Yes, an errand. Can you do it?

Freyr: Umm...

Kuruna: Oh, you do not have to if you do not want to.

Freyr: That's okay. I'll do it.

Kuruna: Thank you. You would be a great help.

Freyr: I'm not really familiar with the paths around here...

Kuruna: Do not worry. I will send a guide. Have you met Zaid?

Your choices:
Yes.
No.

Freyr: yes.

Kuruna: Good. I have already talked to Zaid. Please go see him when you are ready.

Freyr: Okay.

When you speak to Zaid next:

Zaid: Kuruna told me everything. You ready to go?

Your choices:
I'm ready.
Not yet.

If you tell him you are ready:

Zaid: First we're going to get some Dragon Bones! We'll find them in the southeast part of the desert. Let's go!

When you reach the southeast screen, formerly barred by an obstacle made of stone:

Zaid: We should find what we're looking for around the head of that skeleton.

Freyr: But we'll need to beat the monsters first.

Zaid: You got it. Alright, Freyr. Get to it!

Freyr; What?! Just me?!

Zaid: *sigh* ... Fine. I guess i'll help.

Zaid: Alright. All done. Let's get what we came for.

Freyr: Okay.

You will see a blue arrow above the dragon's skull. Collect the Dragon Bones.

Obtained: Dragon Bones.

Zaid: Found it?

Freyr: I think so. Is this what we're looking for?

Zaid: Bingo! Let's go take it to Kuruna!

There are more Dragon Bones but if you try to collect another, you will see a prompt to the effect that Kuruna needs only one.

Return now to Kuruna.

Kuruna: How is the errand coming along?

Give her the Dragon Bones.

Kuruna: Thank you. I only need the Cactus Flower now.

Freyr: The Cactus Flower?

Kuruna: Yes, it's a flower that grows on a giant cactus southwest of here.

Freyr: And that's what we need to get? Okay!

Kuruna: THank you. I'm counting on you, too, Zaid.

Freyr: No problem!! You've got the right dwarf for the job!

You can find Quality Cloth in the southwest corner of her tent:

In the southwest corner:

Do you want that leftover fabric?

Are you sure?

If you'd like it, it's yours.

Freyr: I'll take some.

What is this thing...?

Kuruna: It's for sewing clothes.

You can do that on your own?

Kuruna: Yes, it's simple.

Outside:

It seems they have lots of food stored. Some rare food too. I wonder if they trade with other settlements?

Zaid: Want to eat some?

Freyr: Really?

Zaid: yeah! It's only a little amount. They won't find out! Probably!

Freyr: Sure...

An apple pops out.

Freyr: Th-Thank you...

You need to find your way to the southwest corner of the desert, an area hitherto unexplored.

Zaid: There's some more pests. Let's take care of 'em.

When we go for the Cactus Flower;

Hey, Zaid. these footprints are pretty big. Do you know what animal they belong to?

Zaid: Who cares? I'm not an animal expert.

Freyr: I see...

Zaid: Anyway, look over there.

Freyr: What a big cactus.

Zaid: Be careful when you get the flower. Don't get poked by that thing!

Freyr: I'll be careful...

Obtained: Cactus Flower.

Freyr: Got it!

Zaid: Great! Let's head on back.

Cactus Flower:
A giant cactus flower. It's very pretty, but also very big.
Present

When we go right to the next screen again:

STOMP STOMP STOMP

Zaid: What was that?!

Freyr: I don't like the sound of that rumbling! Let's get back to the settlement as quickly as we can!

When we enter the settlement, a stone gate has appeared.

Freyr: What happened?!

Kuruna: We've been attacked! A monster stormed the settlement gates!

Ondorus: Kuruna! The gate won't hold much longer!

Kuruna: ... Can we not avoid a fight?

She opens the gate and goes north.

Freyr: Kuruna! It's dangerous!

Kuruna: I am the elder of this settlement. It's my duty to protect every one. Please escape whihle you can.

Freyr: ... Can you leave this to me?

Kuruna (!) What are you talking about?!

Freyr: I'll e fine! I'm actually pretty confident in my own strength.

Kuruna: I f you believe you can defend the settlement... Then I leave this to you.

Ondorus: Kuruna, hurry!

Kuruna: Please be careful!

Zaid and I go north now.

Freyr: What IS that?!

It is a dinosaur skeleton.

Freyr: Well, whatever it is, Kuruna needs my help!

*pant* ... *pant* ... Got it! time to tell Kuruna the good news!

When we re0enter the settlement, an event.

Kuruna: You're alive! ARe you hurt?

Freyr: No, I'm fine.

Kuruna: (Really?) I'm glad you're okay.

Freyr: Yeah, that was one tough monster.

Kuruna: But why did that monster attack us?

Ondorus: Hmm... Did any one recently pick a cactus flower?

Kuruna turns towards him now.

Kuruna: A cactus flower...? Yes, he just brought it back for me. What about it?

Ondorus: That monster is drawn to the cactus flower. It actually derives its sustenance from it. That must be the reason why it attacked.

Kuruna: What?! So that was a Skelefang?! I thought they were all extinct. Had I known there was one out there, I would have left that flower alone.

She turns to me now.

Kuruna: And I've caused you so much trouble.

Freyr: Don't worry about it.

Kuruna: Well, I do still need that Cactus Flower, if you have it.

Freyr: Okay.

As soon as the event ended, she was in bed, and I couldn't give the flower to her as it was after 11.00 p.m. Returned the next day...

Kuruna: You've come to deliver the Cactus Flower?

Freyr: Um... what is the thing floating on your shoulder?

Kuruna: This is my pet, Will. Will, say hi.

Will: HELLO! HELLO! SO TINY!

Kurna: Will! I'm sorry.

Freyr: Oh, no. That's okay.

Gave her the Cactus FLower.

Kuruna: Now I have both. Thank you!

Freyr: Oh, no problem!

Kuruna: I'm terribly sorry for involving you in all this commotion.

Freyr: It's okay. You couldn't have known some giant dinosaur bones weren't extinct!

Kuruna: This is a token of the settlement's appreciation. Please, take it.

Freyr: Thank you.

Reward: Farming Bread

Kuruna: Oh, before I forget!

Freyr: What?

Kuruna: There's something odd going on a little bit north of the settlement. After you arrived in the settlement, we discovered a strange orb. No one knows where it came from, and no one can remove it... It's very strange.

Freyr: An orb...? Kuruna, do you think it would be okay if I took a look at this orb?

Kuruna: Certainly. I will open the gates. Feel free to take a look.

Freyr: Thank you!

Go north now and you will experience an Event as soon as you enter the northernmost screen.

Freyr: Oh...! It's another orb like the one in Privera Forest. Kuruna said that this orb appeared when I came to town. How strange...

Go to the Orb and investigate it. It will rise and then become a part of you.

A voice: Thanks, Freyr. I know being a guard can be tough work.

Freyr: Well, I want to help. I'm a little nervous, though.

Voice: ... This whole town is counting on you.

Freyr: That's what I'm nervous about. So many people depending on me...

Voice: Don't worry, you'll do fine! I can see it in your eyes. You've got more strength and courage than you know.

Freyr: I'm glad you think so.

Voice: I know so! You've got the makings of a real hero, kid!

Freyr: Okay! I'll do my best to protect this town!

The darkness lifts and Freyr is in front of the place where the Orb resided.

Freyr: I remember... My name is Freyr! I guess I didn't forget my real name after all. And I was... some sort of guard? I was protecting a town... Where was I a member of the guard...? ... No... I can't remember... I've got to find more orbs and get my memory back!


Sakuya and the Howling Food Stealer


When you attempt to visit the Inn next, you will experience an Event with Sakuya. You will find her on the ground. Evidently, a large shadow stole the lunch she had intended to give to you and has made off with it.

The lunch is Salted Char according to Sakuya. Go to Oddward Valley now to retrieve it. At each new screen, your Character will stop briefly to remark that the howling is growing louder...

At length, you will find a new Save Point at a screen hitherto inaccessible to you. When you go north beyond the Save Point, you will find the dish on the ground in the centre of a little circle. (Although Sakuya claimed she made Salted Char, the Dish on the ground actually is Super Fail.)


Crimson, Amaranthine and the Third Orb


Take the Dish and return to the village. You need to experience a series of Events before you can confront the Stealer of Char. Speak first to Sakuya and she will announce that the Diner has been vandalised.

When you enter the Diner, you will experience an Event with Collette and Blaise. Once again, the Monster came to the village because it was attracted to Salted Char. The message is clear. If you wish to confront the Monster, you need to prepare Salted Char yourself and take it to the clearing in Oddward Valley.

In case you did not recognise the connection, however, you will experience one more Event when you approach the entrance to Oddward Valley. Carmen will run towards you to announce that HER Salted Char was stolen by a lion-like Monster in Oddward Valley.

Catch a Char, prepare Salted Char and gird your loins for battle. If you do not know how to make Salted Char, Blaise will be more than happy to instruct you if you speak to him after the Event with Carmen at the entrance to the Valley.

When you enter the Oddward Valley with your Salted Char, you will be able to advance unimpeded until you reach the Bamboo Cliffs. Here, two gates will slam shut, trapping you temporarily. Four Monsters of different varieties now will appear. You will be required to defeat them all before the gates will open for you to allow you to go to the next screen in the west.

On this screen, two gates will slam shut, preventing your escape and this time, five Monsters of different varieties will appear. Once you have defeated all of them, the gates will open, allowing you to enter the screen with the new save point.

Save your game and advance north to the little clearing to place your Salted Char in the centre of the circle where you collected the Super Fail Dish previously.

As soon as the Salted Char is placed, TWO Lion-like Monsters will appear. One is Red and one is Blue.

Freyr: Wait, another one?! Which one attacked the diner?!

Both roar in unison.

Freyr: Guess it doesn't matter! They're both about ready to make me their meal!

When the Red one is defeated, he will drop Red Lion Fur. When the Blue one is defeated, he will drop Blue Lion Fur and Quality Fur. You now will be able to go north to another clearing with a dais in the centre. An orb floats there.

When you investigate the Orb, you will experience more of your hitherto lost memories and discover that you came to Sharance in fact on the trail of five Monsters. So far, you have encounted and defeated four of them... One remains.


Text of the Food Stealer and Third Orb Events


When you return to the Sharance Tree after discovering the Second Orb, an Event occurs:

Sakuya: Freyr! Freyr!

Freyr: (!)

He turns right as Sakuya runs towards him.

Freyr: What's the matter?

Sakuya: well, actually, I had an extra lunch made. I'd hate to see it go to waste, so I thought you could have it.

Freyr: What? Really?

Sakuya: (Sure!) Of course! It's yours! Well, come by to get it later.

Freyr: Yeah, okay.

Sakuya: See ya.

When you next visit your Fields, you will find a Teleport in the southwest. It leads directly to the Univir Settlement.

When you enter the screen that leads to the Inn, you will experience an Event.

Sakuya will be on the ground on the south end of the bridge and the music will denote danger.

Freyr: Sakuya!

Freyr rushes to her side.

Freyr: Are you OK?!

Sakuya: Ugh... Oh, Freyr......

She stands now to face me.

Sakuya: Ouch...

Freyr: Are you hurt?

Sakuya: Ow!! What was that!! (with cross hurt)

Freyr: What's wrong?

Sakuya: A shadow appeared! It screeched at me, and I fell down! (with cross hurt)

Freyr: Um, calm down...

Sakuya: Yeah, you're right...

She dusts off her knees and the music returns to its ordinary peaceful melody.

Freyr: And then what?

Sakuya: Well... I was carrying your lunch, and waiting outside... Then a huge shadow came out of nowhere and surprised me! So I fell, and then the shadow took the lunch I brought for you!

Freyr: Lunch?

Sakuya (giggling) It's a new product! I wanted to hear your opinion of the taste... But it took it away.

Freyr: I guess it's good that you weren't attacked.

Sakuya: Oh man! I put a lot of effort into making the Salted Char!

Freyr: I wonder what the large shadow was?

Sakuya: It was all so sudden, so I couldn't really see. Sorry.

Freyr: I see...

Sakuya: *sigh*... Man, I was scared!

Freyr: Interesting story... I'll look into it! If you think of something, let me know!

Sakuya: Yeah, will do, Freyr.

As I begin to walk away, Sakuya leaps up and down excitedly.

Sakuya: (I did it!) Hey, wait a minute!

Freyr: Oh!

Sakuya: It went towards Oddward Valley. The customers have said they heard howling coming from there. It's a tourist spot, so I was worried that something might happen.

Freyr: Oddward Valley seems like there might be something there...? Okay, I'll check it out.

Sakuya: Okay! Be careful.

To investigate this strange turn of events, go to Oddward Valley and go through the tunnel that leads to the river. As you exit the tunnel, you will experience an Event.

Freyr: I can hear a faint howling in the distance...

At the next screen, you will stop again to say:

Freyr: The howling still sounds pretty far away...

At the next screen, you stop once more:

Freyr: The howling sounds like it's coming from upstream...

At the next screen:

Freyr: The howling's definitely getting closer...

And, at the next screen:

Freyr: I can't pinpoint the direction of the howling, ut it seems to be getting louder...

Go north now to the next screen:

Freyr: I can hear the howling pretty clearly now... It's starting to freak me out!

Go west now and you will find a Save Point, indicating a Boss Monster ahead.

Freyr: The howling's REALLY loud... and it's just ahead!

Walk north:

Freyr: Hm?

You will see a prepared Dish in the centre of a circle on the ground.

Freyr: Is that the lunch Sakuya mentioned?

You will walk towards it automatically now.

Freyr: I know it's rude, but what was it thinking when it stole it...? But...

You now look to all sides, then:

Freyr: It's too quiet... Like there never was any howling... I need to tell Sakuya. I should get back to town!

Scoop up the Dish and teleport back to town...

(Contrary to your expectations, it will be a Super Fail Dish rather than Salted Char.)

When you next see Sakuya:

Sakuya: Freyr! Oh no!

Freyr: ?

Sakuya: The diner got vandalised!

Freyr: What?!

Sakuya: I heard it was like a giant lion... Maybe it's the same one that attacked me...

Enter the diner and you will experience an Event.

Collette will be sprawled on the floor near the entrance.

Collette: Freyr, watch out! It's a broken plate!

Freyr jumps back.

Freyr: (!) What happened here?!

Blaise now walks up.

Blaise: A lion-like beast attacked us out of nowhere! Nobody got hurt, but it snatched the Salted Char right out of my hands!

Collette dusts herself off now.

Collette: ... I don't look that scary when I'm scarfing, do I?!

Blaise: I'd cooked that fish to perfection, too...

Freyr: A lion-like beast? I'd better head to Oddward Valley! The townspeople have a right to eat in peace!

Blaise; I'm afraid to cook anything now! Who knows what vile beast the smells might attract?!

Collette leaves and Blaise goes behind his counter. When I speak to him there:

Blaise: Please, exact justice on that beast for stealing my Salted Char!

When you walk towards the entrnace to Oddward Valley dungeon, you will experience an Event.

???: Freyr!

Carmen runs towards Freyr now.

Carmen: Hey, so this stupid lion monster appeared!

Freyr: Really?! Please tell me more!

Carmen: Well, I was just fishing down by the falls. I got hungry, so I got my lunch out, and it came out of nowhere. It was so fast. And its claws and giant teeth... Man! It was scary! I just got out of there as fast as i could.

Freyr: So it's down there?!

Carmen: I'm not sure. I went to check on my fishing rod, and it wasn't there any more. Looks like it took my Salted Char, too... That's too bad.

Freyr: (Blaise said it got his Salted Char too...) (Maybe I can use it to lure it out. I'll get some ready before I go.) Thank you.

Carmen: You're welcome. Good luck taking out that monster, Freyr!

When I speak next to Carmen, while I am fishing for Char:

Carmen: Aww, I got my Salted Char eaten. Freyr, I hope you make him pay for what he did!

Prepare some Salted Char and go to the Bamboo Cliffs screen to confront the Monster. YOu will hear it growl and then gates will shut on either side, forcing you to remain on the screen until you achieve victory.

Freyr: I'm trapped!

An assortment of four Monsters of different types will appear now.

Freyr Got no choice but to take care of these monsters...

When you defeat all four, the two gates will open again.

Freyr: Whew! The path's clear now!

Go left and two gates will slam shut again. This time, five monsters will appear.

Oh no! Not again! These guys look tough... It's do-or-die!

After defeating these, the gates open:

Whew! The path's clear now!

Go forward to the left, save at the save point, then enter the screen at the north, placing your Salted Char in the centre of the circle.

Freyr: Time to rumble!

You will move back a little to wait.

Freyr: (!) There he is!

So this is the monster that attacked Blaise and Collette! You'll pay for that!

The first one came from the left and is red. Another now leaps to the circle from the right. This one is purple.

Freyr: Wait, another one?! Which one attacked the diner?!

Both roar in unison.

Freyr: Guess it doesn't matter! They're both about ready to make me their meal!

The red one is named Crimsone.

When defeated, he will drop Red Lion Fur.

Red Lion Fur: 22500G
Beautiful red lion fur. It's fiery colour invokes strength. Upgrades can inflict paralysis.
Sell: 4000G
ATK +13, DEF +2, MGC ATK -2, MGC DEF -6

When you defeat the Blue one, it will drop Blue Lion Fur.

Blue Lion Fur: 22500G
Beautiful blue lion fur. Its flowing deep blue colour invokes intelligence.
Sell: 4000G
ATK -2, DEF -6, MGC.ATK +15, MGC DEF +4

It should drop a Quality Fur as well.

Freyr: Whew! I don't know which one attacked Blaise and Collette, but they're both back at the Forest of Beginnings now!

A gate now at the north end of the clearing will open.

Freyr: Looks like the gate opened! I should check it out...

As you may have suspected, you will find a dais in the next screen with an orb floating upon it.

Freyr: It's an orb...

Investigate it.

Feyr: These orbs seem to hold the key to my past somehow... What memory will I get back this time...? Where was I before...? Why did I come here...? What are these orbs to begin with... I hope it all becomes clear, but...

The orb will descend and enter Freyr.

Freyr: Ahh...

Darkness...

*pant pant*... Where'd they go?! ...

Five monsters fled to this town. Will you go after them, Freyr?

Five of them?! Okay...!

We're counting on you.

...

*pant pant*... Where are they? !! Found you!

Stop!!

...

Now you will find yourself once more next to the dais in the light.

Freyr: That's right... I remember... I was chasing after them... Raccoon from Privera Forest. Skelafang, the monster that attacked the desert settlement. Crimsone, Amaranthine. The monsters here that took Sakuya's and Blaise's lunches. And one more... It's no good... I can't remember the last one... ...! But... I have to go...! He's dangerous... I can't rest knowing that he's out there! And that's my only lead to get my memories!

If you speak to Blaise again before you take Salted Char into the Valley, he will give you the recipe.

How to you make Salted Char?

Salted Char? Well, first you need a char, of course. You can catch them anywhere during the summertime, or you can try to find a place where summer fish are always in season! then, once you've got a char, cook it in the frying pan! I can give you the recipe if you want.



Walkthrough: Vale River



Sinister Laughter


When you approach the entrance to the Winter Dungeon for the first time after defeating the twin Lions, you will experience a little Event.

Some awfully sinister laughter will be heard in the distance.

Freyr: (!) Was that some one... laughing?! Disturbing... It sounded like it came from across the river. I think I might be able to cross the river with a magic seed... Now, where to find one...?


Walking on Water


When you have defeated the Twin Lions and heard the sinister laughter emanating from the Vale River Dungeon, Characters in the village will begin to speak of the Sharance Tree blossoms and how the Flowers of the Sharance Tree by tradition bring happiness.

For example:

Karina: There's a legend that says that when the Sharance flowers bloom, you can make a wish.

Freyr: Really...? What do you want to wish for?

Karina: To never have to work, and to sleep all day, of course.

Shara will make a special visit to your chambers in the Tree to tell you of the lore:

Shara: There are many myths about the Sharance Tree. Like it will bring you happiness, or heal ailments... I'm not sure if any of them are true, but good things DO happen when its flowers bloom. Doesn't that make you want to get them to bloom now?

You can explore some of the areas in the Vale River dungeon without crossing the water, but you will not be able to find the source of the sinister laughter until you have a method of doing so.

Even the description of Vale River hints at the need to be able to cross the river: 'An ice-cold river divides the land. You'll need to find a way to cross it.'

Obviously, you can purchase a Magic Lily Pad Seed from the Flower Shop. There are some Water Shoes at the Smithy in the Special Deals section occasionally at this point that will allow you to cross water as well. The list of Items offered as Special Deals is generated randomly so if you wish to own the Water Shoes but have not obtained the Recipe yet to make them yourself, simply save your game before you visit the Smithy and, should the Menu not include them, reload your game.

Water Shoes: 50220G
Special ninja shoes that allow you to walk on water.
Sell: 1460G
DEF +83

You will be required to cross the river more than once in the Vale River Dungeon.

In order to pursue the source of the sinister laughter, you must cross the water of the Vale River Dungeon and then continue north through a tunnel in the ice.

When you enter the Crystal Cave area, your Character will halt to remark: Yikes! That eerie cackling again! Looks like the road ahead's protected by a powerful wind... Do I have to defeat all the monsters in this area...?

You will be confronted by a number of Turnip Ghost Monsters, Orc Vikings and Dark Slimes. An arrow at the western edge of the icy ground will prompt a thought:

Freyr: This ice seems ... unstable..

Your choice now:
Try pushing it.
Leave it alone.

Choose: Try pushing it.

Freyr: Uh... maybe that was a little too hard.

The pillar of ice will fall, creating a bridge to the western side of the screen. This provides a shortcut in future so that you will not need to use other methods to cross the water on this screen. There are other screens, however, with water that cannot be crossed without some sort of artificial aid.

Freyr: Well, I can get across now, so it's all good!

The enemies from the other side of the area can move freely back and forth now as well. You will be required to defeat all enemies on either side of the water as well as the two Monster Generators in order to be able to move forward. When this has been accomplished:

Freyr: It feels like the gusts have died down. I'll try moving ahead now.

To move forward, you need to exit the Crystal Cave at the northeast corner. When you enter the next screen, which is the Icy River:

Freyr: Ack! Again with the cackling! The gusts are knocking me back again. And who... or what... is behind all the laughing?

The view shifts to the other side of the water.

Freyr: Hmm... I'm getting a bad feeling from over in that area. If I defeat all the monsters in the cave, I might be able to move on.

You now need to defeat a pack of Silver Wolves, Little Wizards and more Dark Slimes in order to clear the area. Once again, there are two Generators and one will be found on either bank of the river. There is no way to create a bridge here, however, and you therefore will need either to have the ability to walk on water or to float across on a leaf. Although you need to clear the area on the west bank of the River, the path to the source of the laughter will be in the northeast corner again.

Whenever you find a save point in a dungeon, it usually denotes the presence of a Boss Monster in the next screen. When you enter the screen, you will find a save point in the north. Save your game and move forward to find the source of the demonic laughter. It is a Wall with a face.

Freyr: You're...? I remember! Death Wall! I finally found you! I'll send you back to the Forest of Beginnings! Here I come!

After Death Wall emerges and transforms into multiple weapons, including a long icy lance, an enormous ice hammer and such:

Freyr: *pant pant*... Now I've sent back all the monsters to the Forest of Beginnings. Then... I bet there's going to be another orb.

War Trophy:
Ice Shard: 66000G
A piece of Death Wall that still has a mind of its own. Upgrades resist knock backs.
Sell: 6000G
ATK -8, DEF +10, MGC ATK +5, MGC DEF +12
Upgrade Difficulty: 76

Go forward to find the orb.

Freyr: I wonder what memory I'll get back this time.

Go to the orb and press A as usual.

The flowers... The flowers... ...The Sharance flowers... .......... ... ... What was that memory? Does it mean to get them to blossom? But why would the flowers be part of my memory...?

N.B. If you turn back at any point before you encounter the Death Wall, you will be forced to defeat all Monsters in every screen where winds prevailed on your first visit before you will be able to reach the screen where the Death Wall is to be found.

After your encounter with the Orb, return to your home to find Wells outside the Tree.

Freyr: Wells.

Wells: Oh, it's you.

Freyr: Were you looking at the tree?

Wells: ...

Freyr: Um... Do you know something about the SHarance flowers?

Wells: About the flowers? What?

Freyr: How can we get the SHarance flowers to bloom?

Wells: How to get the Sharance flowers to bloom? Hmph. All I can say is that it hasn't happened for 50 years.

He turns back to the Tree.

Freyr: But...

Wells: You know. I think the flowers won't bloom because of those univir.

Freyr: !! Why is that?

Wells: You know that the univir used to live here?

Freyr: Yes, I've heard...

Wells: Ever since they left town, the Sharance Tree began to lose its brilliance. And then finally, it stopped blooming. I know they must have done something to the Tree because they were kicked out.

Freyr: But you don't have any evidence of that!

Wells: Hmph. The fact is the Tree stopped blooming flowers. That's evidence enough.

He marches off.

Freyr stares at the Tree for a moment, then:

Freyr: I wonder what happened to the tree. I'll ask Ondorus.

Visit Ondorus.

Freyr: Ondorus, I wanted to talk to you about something.

Ondorus: it seems like this is important.

Freyr: Yes.

Ondorus: Okay. Please come to my tent.

You automatically will find yourself inside the tent with Ondorus.

Freyr: Do you know anything about the Sharance Flowers?

Ondorus: The Sharance Flowers? Why do you ask?

Freyr: I want them to blossom.

Ondorus: ?! ... That might be difficult.

Freyr: !!

Ondorus: Those flowers are special. They won't blossom normally. Especially in these circumstances...

Freyr: What does that mean...?

Ondorus: The tree will need the 'bond beyond the races' to blossom its flowers. Basically we must get along with the humans in order for its flowers to blossom.

Freyr: ...

Ondorus: But the humans hate us, and we... Kuruna the way she is... I want the flowers to blossom too, but... It's too difficult to make amends between hunans and monsters.

Freyr: I'll do it!

Ondorus: You will? Unfortunately, you're a monster. You won't be able to do it...

Freyr: No... only I can do it.

Ondorus: Why?

Freyr: ... (If I reveal myself now, I migh worsen the situation...)

Ondorus: Freyr?

Freyr: (But...) (This is all I can do! I know ONdorus will understand!)

He now transforms into his human form in front of Ondorus.

Ondorus: (!) I'm shocked...

Freyr: I'm sorry for hiding this from every one... But I'm sure that they would listen to me because I am half monster and half human.

Ondorus: You may be right...

He changes back into his Monster form now.

Ondorus: They may listen to you. But what do you intend on doing if they do listen?

Freyr: We will hold a festival.

Ondorus: A festival?

Freyr: Yes, a festival. One where both townspeople and monsters can come together and enjoy... (laughing) That's the kind of festival I want to have.

Ondorus: A festival bringing together monsters and humans. How about calling it a 'Unity Festival'... That sounds like fun..

Freyr: Ondorus...

Ondorus: Freyr, I'll do what I can to help.

Freyr: Thank you very much!

Ondorus: I will speak with Kuruna. Your job will be to convince the humans.

Freyr: Okay!

A flash of light and Freyr is outside the tent again.

Freyr: Alright! I'll go talk to Wells!


Courtship and the Unity Festival


It is when you speak to Wells that you will discover that your own personal future in terms of potential marriage and the Sharance Flowers are intertwined.

Frer: I have something important to discuss with you.

Wells: Alone?

Freyr: Yes.

Wells: Then let's go to your house. I'm sure you'll ffeel more at ease.

Freyr: Yes... THank you.

The screen darkens. We now are inside my chamber.

Wells: What is it?

Freyr: To reestablish ties with our toen and the univir settlement... I want to hold a 'Unity Festival'.

Wells: What are you talking about?! There's no way we can do that!

Freyr: But you said that you used to live together!

Wells: *sigh* ... That was a long time ago. WHy are you even bringing it up?

Freyr: I found out how to get the 'Sharance Flowers' to bloom.

Wells: (!)

He now runs forward to confront me.

Wells: Is that right?!

Freyr: Yes...

Wells: How?!

Freyr: A univir told me how...

Wells: WHAT?! You went to see them?!

Freyr: Yes... According to him, 'Sharance flowers' need the 'bond beyond the races'. The tree uses the 'bond beyond the races' as nourishment for its flowers.

Wells: How absurd!!

Freyr: When the tree grew before, it was when I made contact with the settlement.

Wells: ... That can't be. I don't know how you managed to meet them. It's nourished by the 'bond between the raes'? Hmph! HOw absurd!! YOu have no evidence that he was telling the truth.

Freyr: I believe that I can be that proof...

Wells: What do you mean?

Freyr: I'm actually half human and half monster.

Wells: !!

Freyr: The tree grew because I linked the town's people and those in the settlement.

Wells: What are you talking about...?

Freyr now transforms.

Wells: It can't be!

Freyr: I was able to link the town as a monster, and the settlement as a human... But I'm not enough to get to the flowers to bloom!

Wells: ...

Freyr transforms back to human form.

Wells: So you were the wooly from that night...

Freyr: I'm sorry I hid it from you...

Wells: ...

He moves forward again.

Wells: About the 'Unity Festival'...

Freyr: ?

Wells: Is there any one in town who knows about your secret?

Freyr: No... not yet...

Wells: I see. So you're not close enough to any one to trust them with your secret, yet. Then there's no way I can agree to a 'Unity Festival'. Try romance. Find some one who accepts you. Do some requests... Come back to see me when you've found some one who accepts you.

Freyr: Okay!


Dungeons and the Four Seasons


There are four seasonal dungeons in Rune Factory 3. Each successive season is progressively more difficult in terms of the strength of its monsters. You will find tillable fields in all of the seasonal Dungeons. Wild Items, including Medicinal Herb, Antidotal Herb and Coloured Grasses specific to the Season will grow randomly in all Dungeon Fields and you will find Branches, Rocks, Weeds and Stumps on these Fields as well. You can plant Crops specific to the Season in the Dungeons.

Poison Squares or 'Puddles' are deep purple and can be found randomly on tillable Fields in the Dungeons. Use Neutraliser purchased at the Clinic to dissipate a Poison Square,Puddle.

If your Character walks over a Poison Square, he will be poisoned. Likewise, if you can persuade any Monster to follow you through a Poison Square,Puddle, IT will be poisoned as well! You should deal with any Poison Effects immediately. An Antidotal Herb can be eaten to clear all Poison from your Character's system.

Monsters are Dungeon-specific and Screen-Specific and each has a set list of War Trophies. War Trophies are random effects of defeating any Monster and you may not find ANY Items after a successful encounter with one. As every Combat situation increases your Skill Level, however, it is to your advantage to fight the same Monsters again and again.

Many of the War Trophies dropped by defeated Monsters are ingredients that can be used to create and upgrade Items when you have a Forge, Workshop and Pharmacy of your own. Ores and Gems are used in similar fashion, so you may wish to stash a few War Trophies and Ores/Gems for future use.

Where forging Weapons and Accessories are concerned, there are no set ingredients for Upgrades. Instead, you can choose the Item that you wish to use based on its stats. Weapons strong in Attack can be upgraded with Items that give Defence or Magical Defence, for example, if you feel that you need more defensive power. Each Item that can be used in Upgrades has specific stats. These are included in the War Trophies List.

In the following Monster Lists, you will find the name of the Monster with its official description, the Combat Level at which it can be tamed, its Stats in terms of HP, Attack (ATK), Defence (DEF), Magic Attack (MGC ATK), Magic Defence (MGC DEF), Strength (STR), Vitality (VIT) and Intelligence (INT), the War Trophies that it may 'drop' when defeated and the Item that it 'gives' when tamed. The specific screen or screens in any Dungeon where the Monster can be found is included as well.

In Rune Factory 2, the appearance of Monsters on any screen in most cases were regulated by the time of day. There were Monsters who appeared on a screen only during the day and others who would appear at night. Rune Factory 3 is quite different. Although each Screen has specific Monster types, the actual Monsters who appear when you enter any screen are chosen randomly from the group of Monsters specific to the area.

For example, the first screen in Privera Forest is the Lightway, where both Pomme-Pommes and Woolies appear. Whenever you enter the area, you can find two Monsters. They may be two Pomme-Pommes, two Woolies or one Pomme-Pomme and one Wooly.

The Gifts that a Monster leaves on the floor of the barn each day may or may not be one of its War Trophies. For example, in the case of the Chipsqueek, the Gift that it leaves for you on the floor of the Barn is Fur, which is one of its War Trophies. In the case of the Wooly, however, its Gift is Small Fleece, which is the item that you will obtain when you use the Clippers, but NOT one of its War Trophies.


Transport Monsters


Many of the Monsters that you tame in Rune Factory 3 can be used for Transport. Whenever you interact with a Monster, you will have access to a prompt to 'Ride' it. If it is a Monster that can be used for Transport, you will be able to mount it by using that option. If it is NOT a Monster that can be used for Transport, attempting to use the option will result in a message to the effect that you will not be able to ride this particular Monster.

Some of the Monsters that you should be able to use for Transport are as follows:

Buffalo
Dorado
Duck
Elephant
Hercules Beetle
Hunter Wolf
Penguin
Silver Wolf
Sky Fish
Tricky Mushroom

Walkthrough: After defeating the Raccoon


After defeating the Raccoon in Privera Forest, you will experience a very brief encounter when you approach the Sharance Tree on your way home. A figure standing near the Tree, seeing you, will bolt towards the path in the west that leads to the Desert. When you first enter the entrance to the Sol Terrano Desert after this, you will catch a momentary glimpse of the figure again before it disappears into the Desert.

Wells will approach you at the entrance to the Desert, warniing you not to enter. Obviously, the Desert is the next destination for you if you wish to make progress in the main Plot!


Univir Settlement


When you begin to explore the Sol Terrano Desert, you should experience an Event when you first arrive at a narrow defile in the north. Here is the entrance to the Univir Settlement, a fabled tribe of creatures who, led by the 'Horned Girl' Kuruna, have declared unrelenting war against humanity.

You will be unable to enter the Settlement, in fact, until you have transformed into your Wooly persona. When you have done this, you will be welcomed warmly and urged to join their cause.

After you encounter Kuruna and the Univir Tribe, the Sharance Tree will grow, giving you an upper floor where a Forge, Workbench and Pharmacy can be placed. Raven will offer the Forge and Workbench while Marian will offer the Pharmacy option.

The third location for Requests is in the Univir Settlement where, by speaking to an Owl perched near the Elder's Tent, you can accept Requests.
