Grandia 2 - Strategy Guide (Page 03)
Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Grandia 2 - Strategy Guide (Page 03).
You'll find Ira in the center of the room, where she goes on to say that she
doesn't like fighting, and she just wants everyone to get along. She then takes
them all to the happy flower garden. Ira continues on to say that she was so
happy when she was healed, but she also got to see things that she didn't want
to see, like lying and fighting. She simply wanted people to be happy, and
wants them all to come to the happy flower garden, where they forget all of
their pain and all becomes fairies. At this point, Elena comes up and says that
she should stop hurting all of the people that she is keeping there. It is at
this point that Elena sees Ira's right eye, which Ira calls the "eye that god
gave her." She is just trying to help the people, but doesn't realise that she
is actually hurting them. She thinks that the party has betrayed her for
thinking that way... At that point, she thinks that something has happened to
her mother, and runs away, disappearing. You'll now need to make your way back
to town as well, heading out through the forest again.
Getting back to town, you'll find that Sandra is being questioned by Selena,
that she thinks that Sandra and Ira are the reason that evil has come to town.
Selena sucessfully turns the townspeople against Sandra, and says that she is
going to liberate Ira. It is at this point that Ira comes out, saying that she
just wants everyone to be friends. Selena sees Ira's eye, and is thus convinced
that Ira is in fact using Valmar's power.
You'll now find yourself at the town gate, and will need to go to the front of
Sandra's house. Ryudo will ask Roan and Malegg to take care of Sandra, who is
lying unconscious in front of the house, and will run off to see what is
happening to Ira.
Ryudo comes up and starts to protect Ira, asking them why they are picking on
such a small child. Selena tells him to get out of the way unless he intends on
defending a minion of pure evil. Ryudo retorts that she doesn't even know what
is going on around her, and that this is the time that god should help the
most. Selena just wants to purify Ira, and asks Elena to hand her over. Selena
says that it is impossible to save her, as anyone that has been possessed by
Valmar can never be returned to normal. Ryudo says to Elena that it isn't wrong
to want to try to save people, that people who don't want to save people are
wrong. Ryudo asks the Holy Knights if they feel any remorse on wanting to hurt
a poor little child. At this point, Sandra wakes up and sees Ira's eye, and
says that she sees now that it was Ira all along. Ira gets upset and vanishes
in a flash of light, and Selena sends the knights off to find Ira.
When Ryudo goes to help Elena up, Millenia appears in another flash of light.
Sandra begins talking right after that, and says that it is all her fault, and
that she never realised that when Ira said that she would take Nikol to the
flower garden that she would do so like that. She never considered other
people, she simply wanted to save her own child. Sandra never thought that evil
would listen to her prayers. Roan says that it is only natural for a mother to
worry about her child, and to pray for her. Malegg adds that he agrees, and
that Valmar is the one to blame. Sandra pleas for Ryudo to simply kill Ira, to
stop her before she hurts anyone else. Ryudo explodes at this, wanting to know
why she is giving up so easily. He says that he will save Ira, that he will do
his best to let her live. Millenia gets the idea of trying to extract the eye
from Ira, and says that she can to that herself. Once she does that, though,
her heart will break, and she will become like a vegetable. Sandra says that it
is all her fault, that all of the pain that Ira feels is her fault. She wants
it to be as painless as possible if there is no way to save Ira... Millenia
agrees that there really is no other way... Ryudo explodes again, telling
Millenia to shut up, that she doesn't care at all about people's hearts.
Millenia isn't quite sure why Ryudo cares anyway, as they really don't have
anything to do with the situation. The only person that really does matter in
the situation, Sandra, has already given up, so there really isn't anything
more that they can do. Millenia just wants Ryudo to give up as well. He can't,
as he knows that little Ira is suffering all by herself somewhere. He doesn't
care about himself, but just wants to help Ira. He knows that Ira just wanted
everyone to be friends and to get along. He doesn't know how Sandra can ignore
Ira's thoughts and wishes so easily.
Ryudo's train of thought is broken as more eyeballs fly by, showing that Ira is
feeling pain. The four set off, trying to find her and see what they can to to
help... At this point, you should head back to the flower garden. Ira doesn't
seem to be there, but Millenia says otherwise, and opens a portal to where Ira
is hiding.
You'll appear back in the place that the part of Valmar was sealed. You'll see
a glowing purple portal, which Millenia says is a portal to Ira's own heart.
Prepare yourself, and head inside of Ira's heart.

--Ira's Heart--
アイラの空間
The party enters into Ira's pained heart. Somewhere deep within the recesses
of this strange world lies Ira agonizing at the fact that even her mother has
begun to believe that she is a monster. You have the hard job of finding her
and then perhaps sealing her all to sad fate...
After making their way through Ira's Heart the party arrives at the core - a
giant eyeball. Inside the find Ira hiding. She tells Ryudo that she knows
that her mother asked him to kill her. She also tells Ryudo that she thinks
Mileena just want so 'eat her'. After that the battle versus Valmar's Eye
begins.
Boss Fight: Valmar's Eye
This is by far the most difficult fight that you've had so far. Not only are
you facing the Eye of Valmar, but four more Eyeball Bats. Start out with range
spells and special attacks, which should help you rid the playfield of the
Eyeball Bats and the two Tentacles quickly. Finish them off with regular combo
attacks if need be, and then focus on the core with powerful single enemy
spells. Again, if you've kept up on your magics and special attacks using SC
and MC, you shouldn't have an incredibly hard time with this battle...
Following the battle, you'll be transported back to the happy flower field. Ira
will be lying on the ground, and Sandra will come up to her and tell her that
she never thought that Ira was a monster. Following a small amount of
discussion, Millenia goes ahead and takes Valmar's Eye from Ira, leaving her in
the previously mentioned vegetable state. Sandra, of course, is upset, and
Millenia says that if she really tries, maybe Ira will eventually return to
normal. As she is walking away, Ryudo confronts her and asks whether or not she
was telling the truth. Millenia doesn't really answer. Ryudo finishes the
conversation by saying that they really aren't that different, and show sides
of themselves that aren't necessarily what they are really like or thinking...
As you go to leave town, you'll have one last conversation with Selena, where
she threatens to keep an eye out on Sandra, then runs off to talk to Pope Zera.
Grab any last bits of equipment that you might need, and then it's off to the
Saint Heim Mountains.

--Saint Heim Mountains--
セントハイム山地
In order to get to the Granus Main Temple, you must first pass through the
Saint Heim Mountains. Like so much of the game, nothing is very difficult here,
just long. You'll spend not one, but two nights in the mountains, and have the
ability to collect quite a bit of treasure if you like. This is also a decent
place to work on SC and MC, as well as levels.

--Saint Heim Holy City--
セントハイム法国
At the gate to the holy city, the party is met by a man at the gate. He
enquires about why they are there, and Elena informs them that she is there to
talk to Pope Zera. The man says that he will take her to see Zera, but she says
that she would rather go by herself. She asks what Ryudo and company are going
to do, and he replies that since he is looking for Melphis, he might be able to
dig up some clues around the area. Roan wants to stick around with Ryudo, and
he agrees, and since Malegg is looking for Melphis as well, he goes along with
Ryudo. They also decide that it might be best if Elena gets a good night's
sleep before she heads to see Pope Zera. She agrees, and the party sets out to
explore the town.
After sitting down at the table at the inn, an assistant to the pope says that
he would like to talk to Elena immediately. Everyone says their goodbyes, and
she goes off. Ryudo says that he somehow feels empty inside after she goes, and
both Roan and Malegg both feel a bit sad as well.
Elena goes to see Pope Zera, and he tells her that he can tell that the
darkness is upon us, that it is trying to revive itself. He wants Elena to seek
out the Granas Sable, a very powerful weapon. She says that she will try her
best...
The scene cuts to the next morning, where the party is sitting around after
waking up, talking about how strange it feels to not have Elena there with
them. At that point, the same assistant comes into the room, saying that the
Pope has asked Ryudo to come to see him immediately, and that he would like his
Ryudo's companions to go as well.
Upon reaching the Grand Church and heading for the doors, Ryudo is stopped,
saying that the Pope would like to speak with him alone. After a bit of
discussion, Roan and Malegg agree to do so, and Ryudo enters the main chamber
by himself. When he does, he begins to hear Pope Zera speaking...
------------------------
Zera "Bring light, peace, and harmony to this world."
Man "Please tell us how to cure this land of the darkness
Zera "You must make your heart strong. As long as it is strong, the
darkness will disappear on its own."
Various People (at the same time) "What should we do? Please save us!"
Zera "Silence! You must think about how to bring peace to your own lives.
You must not rely upon others..."
Oro "But if the rumors are true about the resurrection of Valmar, we
cannot sit around idly! If we do, the world will surely come to an
end! We simply cannot let that happen..."
Zera "Granas always teaches us that the fight against Valmar is up to each
and every one of us; it is not simply up to the church. If we
interfere, then people cannot make their own choices, and that goes
against our beliefs, and people must decide for themselves."
Oro "But if we do nothing, there will be no world for our church to help.
What should we do? Please tell us what we should do!"
Zera "My dear, beautiful Selena, so strong in her belief. So very
passionate. Yet, you must realize that to have so much passion, you
frighten people, and make them feel uneasy. That is not the road of
Granas. And Oro, do not worry. To have faith in Granas... that is
all you need. Things will be fine. Now please, return to your rooms,
all of you."
------------------------
Soon after the discussion ends, Ryudo will find himself in Zera's chamber. Just
as he told Elena, he would like Ryudo to find the Granas Sable, the God Sword.
He says that there will be plenty of reward money upon the completion of the
quest, though it will not be an easy task. He would also like Ryudo to take
Elena with him; even though she is possessed by Valmar, there is nothing that
he can do for her here. The only clue that he can give Ryudo is that it sleeps
together with the army of darkness.
As Ryudo leaves the Pope's chamber, Elena comes out and begs him to take the
job, then runs back inside, slightly upset. Ryudo kind of shakes her off, and
continues out to the main part of the church, where he is met by Oro and the
other priests. They are shocked to find that he has been asked to find the god
sword, and that Zera didn't ask someone with a more holy lineage.
After leaving the Grand Hall you can have the person standing in front of the
doorway guide you to either the Library, your quarters for the night, or the
balcony. The balcony is closed for the time being so you should head off to
see how Roan and Malegg are making out. You reach the library and explain to
your friends about how you have been asked to find the Holy Sword Granas Sable.
Seeing as the only clue you have is that it is with the 'army of darkness,' you
ask your friends if they have any ideas. Roan suggests that you take a look at
the book on the table since it is about the Ancient Magic War of the Gods, The
Day of Darkness, and the Holy Sword Grana Sable. Perhaps you might be able to
find some clues within...
Following that, the party goes to eat dinner. Elena, though, is not with them.
Instead, you'll see Millenia break into Oro's room and attack him. The scene
then switches to the dinner table, when one of the priests breaks in, asking if
anyone has seen one of Valmar's minions: one possesed by Valmar's wings. The
party answers 'no,' but they get up and start to search as well. Your next stop
should be the balcony on the left hand side of the lobby; Millenia is there,
and happy, since she knows that Ryudo will go looking for the sword. Ryudo
reminds her that when they find it, it will mean the end of her, since she will
be exorcised. Soon after, the party goes to sleep, and the morning after, they
are met by Pope Zera and Elena. After saying that he'll take the job to find
the Granas Sable, Zera gives him the Pope's Book. He also warns him that he had
a dream last night, and the god Granas spoke to him, saying that throughout the
coming journeys Ryudo must fight against his past in order to in order to help
solve this conflict between Valmar and Granas. The party then leaves the Great
Church, and at the exit they put their heads together and try to figure out
what the 'army of darkness' clue means. Roan suggests that they try his home,
the Sairam Kingdom. He thinks that someone there might understand what that
means.

--Saint Heim Mountain Shrine Path--
セントハイム山地 参道
The Saint Heim Mountain Shrine leads up to the Grand Shrine. It is a pretty
straight forward stretch. However there are a few good items that you can only
get if you descend down the ladders on the sides of the road. Try going down
and at least pick up the Poison Knife and Seed of Skill.
Items to Find:
- Magic Unsealer
- Sacred Healing Potion
- Seed of Skill
- Poff Nut
- Poison Knife
- 500G x3

Enemies:

--Raul Hills--
ラウル丘陵
Just beyond the Saint Heim Mountain Shrine Path lie the Raul Hills. Here you
will fight a few new enemies, as well as, get some pretty good items. As far
as the enemies go, the only thing that you really need to worry about it
stopping the 'Land Cougar' from using 'Runner' too much. If they use it 3
times then they will have a +5 to Move and be extremely hard to hit. The smart
way to do it is to try and cancel which ever Cougar is trying to cast Runner.
In the middle of the area there is an ancient ruins. The ruins are shaped like
a small maze. If you are looking for the fast way out just follow the 'white
bricked road'. However, there are a few good pieces of armor in here so it
might be a good idea to explore it carefully before moving on. After you get
to section 2 you will begin seeing large pink balloon-like things. Walk over
to them and press the action button. When you slash them open an item will
sometimes appear. However, if you bump into them you will take some minor
damage so be careful. Also, somewhere in the middle of the 2nd area you will
see a big treasure chest on top of a huge stone. In order to get to it you
must slash the smaller stones next to it to create stairs up to it.
Items to Find:
- Thunder Ring
- Buster Flail

--Sairam Kingdom--
サイラム王国
Upon reaching the town, Elena remarks about how nice the town looks. Roan
disagrees; he says that right now they are happy, but when bad times come, they
show their true side. The people of the town are known as the Decendants of the
People of the Dark. No one remembers their true heritage very often, but Roan
and his family have made sure not to forget. They then say that they should go
take a rest at the inn before exploring the town more tomorrow.
Once you reach the inn, the innkeeper says that he doesn't have any more rooms.
Roan talks the keeper into letting them stay, though he says that it won't be
in a proper room. Roan then takes off, saying that he is going to stay at his
house for the evening. The rest of the party wonders why he didn't even offer
to show them his house, but they figure that it was because they are such a
ragtag group of grifters. They sit down and try to figure out what they should
do now. As they are discussing it, the innkeeper comes up and lets them know
that if they are looking for something, then they should try the bazaar that
will be going on tomorrow. The innkeeper makes an off comment about how nice
Elena looks, and how Ryudo must be falling in love with her. Elena blows up,
saying that she just hired him and that she doesn't love him at all. The scene
then changes to Elena in her room, trying to figure out what is going on, and
how she feels. After a short scene, she lays down to go to bed, and but she
doesn't exactly get the sleep that she would have liked...
After that, the scene changes to the king who is talking to a man shrouded in
darkness. The king says that he is very greatful all that the man has done for
him because in 2 days the "people of darkness" will finally be able to live
without fear and be truely free. And they the best part is that they won't
need the damn key that the prince has run off with...
In the morning, Elena wakes up feeling horrible. Ryudo finally drags her out of
bed, and they begin to set off for the Bazaar. Before they do, Malegg says that
Hemple, the guy that might know something about the holy sword, will only talk
to couples, so that Elena and Ryudo should go together. Elena isn't happy about
it, but Malegg takes off for the harbour before she can say anything more. The
two set off for Hemple's tent, which is very near the fountain. Talking to
Hemple reveals that he really won't talk to anyone unless they are a couple, so
Ryudo tells Elena to hold his hand so that they look like they are. She says
that she can't, since she is a priestess, but Ryudo reminds her that it was the
Pope that asked them to find the holy sword, and she agrees to play along.
Hemple notices them holding hands, and invites them inside. He then says that
he won't tell them anything unless Ryudo proves that he is a real man and
arm-wrestles Hemple. If Ryudo wins, then Elena gets to 'keep' him; if not,
Hemple gets Ryudo as a lover!
You'll now get to start the arm-wrestling mini-game. Hold R to try to power
Hemple down; as you hold R, your energy will go down. Press A repeatedly to
fill your energy back up. You can't, however, do both at the same time. Don't
worry about losing, though; if you are close to losing, Elena points out a hair
that is sticking out of Hemple's nose, and he freaks, allowing Ryudo to win.
Even after winning, Hemple says that he doesn't have any information about the
sword, so the two heroes take off.
Elena is feeling pretty tired at this point, and wants to sit down. Ryudo
offers to go and get her a drink, but she wants normal juice. In order to do
this, you need to go to the orange-roofed drinks stand near the fountain. The
owner says that she has four choices, but you'll only see three:
"Fall in Love Juice"
"Burny Ouch Juice"
"Nose Juice"
There is a space for a fourth, though, and you'll find that you'll be able to
select it (even though there isn't any writing). Choose this fourth selection,
and head back to Elena, where you'll find Millenia waiting for you instead. She
says that Elena was boring, and that she wanted to spend some time with Ryudo.
He agrees, though not that happily, and the two should now approach the
dancers. Millenia watches for a bit, and eventually Malegg and Roan come
running up, saying that something big is happening at the castle, and that Roan
knows a secret way in: via a boat.
Head to the boat that Roan points out and get on. You'll soon arrive at a
section of the castle, and after talking to the Pollack the guard on the
left-hand, he'll warn Prince Roan that the passage that he is about to use
hasn't been used in a while. Ryudo's jaw drops open at this. "Prince?" Roan
says that he'll explain a bit later, and the party heads on into the passage,
the Sairam Castle Secret Route.

--Sairam Castle Secret Passage--
サイラム城 抜け道
As you enter the Secret Passage to the Castle you once again run into Kyaro,
the cutsy Pikachu wannabe you met in Duram cave. He will help light the way for
his usual fee of 3 Poff nuts. The secret passage consists of moving boxes and
pulling levers to make bridges so that you can cross to the other side.
Towards the end you will come across two large steel doors that you must open.
Inside there is an 'action icon' near the wall. Press it and you can enter the
castle through A REVOLVING SECRET DOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After you enter the castle there is a staircase and a passage to the left.
first go to the left where you will meet Mainori - a guardian of the darkness
seal. Here you finally get to hear about why everyone is calling Roan prince.
The fact is that he actually is the prince. You find out that Roan has been
handed down the only key that is capable of opening the sacred door which keeps
the darkness from getting out. The key is actually Roan's keepsake that he got
from his mother, which of course explains why he wanted to get that keepsake
back so badly. After talking to Mainori a little while longer you learn some
disturbing news... Appearantly, Roan's father, the king, says that in 2 days
time there will be no need for the key or the door which seals in the darkness.
Worried, Roan and the others go to talk to the king and see what he is
planning.
Heading into the large double doors in the castle, you'll find a smaller door
to the left; head in there, and speak with the king. Roan begins to talk to his
father, and queries him as to why he is planning on opening the door that seals
the darkness. It appears that one of his servants has told him of the glory and
promise that lies behind the door. It turns out that the king no longer needs
Roan's medal to open the door, and that everything in ready for the door to be
opened.
At this point, the king leaves, and Ryudo finally asks why they are called the
people of darkness. Roan walks over to the country's crest, and reveals the
real one: the one that contains the seal of Valmar. It turns out that Roan's
countrypeople were on Valmar's side during the Great War. While no one supports
or prays to Valmar now, their dark heritage still exists. It is at this point
that they hear a rumble, and Roan senses that the door containing the darkness
has been opened, though he still has his medal. The party runs off to the same
room where Mainori was to investigate.
When they get there, sure enough, the door is standing wide open, with Mainori
laying on the ground. Mainori says that the king has been tricked, that the man
who was advising the king was not one that could be trusted. While they are
talking to Mainori, Malegg says that he smells evil. Ryudo asks if Valmar is
around, and Malegg says no... that it is Melphis that he smells! The party
enters the room to see what they can do...

--Underground Plant--
地下プラント
The door that was holding the darkness turns out to be a large, cavernous area.
Large is quite the correct description, too - there are three separate areas,
plus the final room, and lots of overlapping pipes that lead to different parts
of the dungeon. The entire dungeon is pretty straightfoward, though, so you
shouldn't have much trouble at all.
Upon reaching the final room of the plant, the party is surprised to find that
it is just that - a huge underground plant used to make weapons of distruction.
Roan is disgusted at the fact, and gets quite upset that this is what he has
been guarding is nothing more than a plant of distruction. The party looks
around a bit, and is soon attacked by Valmar's Nail.
Boss Fight: Valmar's Nail
Like all of the boss fights in the game, this is nothing hard. Pummel the Nail
with magics and special attacks, and you'll be fine.
After defeating Valmar's Nail, you find out that it was not a human that was
possessed by the nail at all, but a sort of doll-looking robot called an
AutoMatter. Roan says that the AutoMatters used to work as soldiers during the
Great War. Roan never thought that what was being sealed in the door was
actually a factory to create weapons of distruction. He becomes very upset, and
begins to punch one of the control panels. Suddenly, the place begins to shake,
and the party is forced to escape. Before they do so, however, Malegg grabs the
doll...
------------------------
Ryudo "Hey. Why did you take the time to go and rescue a damn doll?"
Malegg "She is a victim of Valmar, just like me. I couldn't stand by and do
nothing."
Millenia "She really looks like a doll, doesn't she?"
Ryudo "She moved!"
Tio "Light... It is so... bright."
Malegg "Don't worry. There's no danger. There's nothing holding you prisoner
anymore."
Tio "Please tell me what to do."
Malegg "There's no reason to worry about fighting."
Roan "It's alright. She's merely a doll. Unless you give her an order,
she can't do anything. I'm just like her. I was just a doll being
bound by tradition."
Ryudo "There's no time to sit here and be depressed! The important thing is
to figure out the cause of all of this."
Roan "That's right. Why did my father want to do something so stupid?
We've got to find out.
Tio "Give me an order... please..."
Malegg "You're free."
Ryudo "Just do whatever you feel like doing."
(the party leaves)
Tio "Free? I do not understand."
(Now that you have control of the party again, run up to where you spoke with
the king earlier; you'll overhear a mysterious man talking to the king, and the
king asking what he is doing. The party will then barge in, and...)
Melphis "Ha ha ha!"
Malegg "Mage Melphis, I've finally found you!"
Ryudo "Wait a second Malegg. My dear brother Melphis! Are you really the
mage Melphis that everyone is talking about? What's happened?"
Melphis "Ah, how touching. I finally get to meet my long lost little
brother. What's the matter? Did you miss me? You're always relying
on me, aren't you? Or maybe you came..." (throws out the king)
"looking for him?"
Roan "Father!
Millenia "It's too late - he's already possessed by Valmar."
Malegg "I've searched the land far and wide for you. I will never let you
leave here alive!"
Melphis "How amusing. Then I will give to you the most fantastic death one
could ever hope for! Come now! Your end is nigh!"
(Melphis attacks. This is a fight that you cannot win, so don't bother
trying...)
(after the fight)
Melphis "You plan on interrupting me? Stupid robot!"
Ryudo "Brother! What are you doing?"
Melphis "Why do you fight against me? Why don't you just die... Now you see
that your dreams are foolish."
Ryudo "Foolish? You're the one that destroyed all of my dreams! I can't
believe that you're actually Melphis!"
Melphis "It is despair that causes us to appreciate true hope. I wanted to
show you that. I'll see you back home, at our fated place where we
always used to meet."
Tio (approaches) "Master. Are you ok?"
Malegg "Oh, it's you. Thanks for saving us. I appreciate it."
Tio "What should I do?"
Malegg "You're the one that must decide that. You're quite strong - you
should be alright wherever you go. Well, you should go now."
(A short discussion ensues about how Roan wanted to bring back pride to the
kingdom. He knows that they must live with the fact that they sided with the
darkness from now on. He doesn't want them to be the people of darkness any
more... Ryudo doesn't know why Roan is talking like this, and talks about how
strong he was. Roan is inspired by this, and decides that he will try to go
about changing the country, putting the wrong decisions behind him. He says
that he is going to stay and try to put the country right, and goes out onto
the balcony to tell the people what they have forgotten, or tried to forget,
about their past and the past of the city...)
Crowd "What's he saying right now? I can't believe that such a thing
happened. What are we going to do?"
Roan "But... we are humans. We're not a part of Valmar's pawns, or his
tools. Valmar is trying to revive. But he's not after humans. He's
after weak little pawns with no will of their own that he can
control. We were embarassed of our past, so we hid it in order to
achieve our dreams. But instead, all that it did was create more
problems and misunderstandings. We're no longer going to hide our
past. Let us forget out ancestors' mistakes. Let us do it together.
Once again, I will raise the royal flag. Let us find a new meaning
for this flag. Let us find a new path! Let us find a new way to
live!"
Ryudo "Wow. He's pretty cool. He's not losing to his past, either. Are you
sure that it's all right, Elena? I mean, you are a priestess of
Granas after all..."
Elena "I think that I have to acknowledge the darkness. Before, I was
afraid of the darkness, and tried to hide. But now, I want to show
people the way that the world really is. I want to accept it just as
it is, a world of darkness and light."
------------------------
As the party goes to leave, Roan comes out to bid them goodbye. He can't
believe that they are actually going to leave, to go to the Warrior's Island to
find Melphis. He offers them troops, but Ryudo says no, that this is his own
battle. Roan has, however, prepared a ship for them, though. The party says
goodbye, and goes to leave.
