Madason and his kids have begun exploring Talon Tower on the southwest island. They are currently on basement level B2, starting near the main stairway from B1.

Heading west from the main stairway, they find a treasure chest that contains an Elfin Elixir (time 0:58).

Then, they head down the stairway to B3 (time 1:08). The nearby treasure chest contains ... a Mimic (time 1:17)! Oh, dear. Fortunately, the Mimic drops Mini Medal #057.

The nearby treasure chest to the south contains Mini Medal #058 (time 2:17).

The party takes the southern stairway up to B2 (time 2:32). They are now to the southwest of the main stairway. As they cross the area, Heorot, the Legendary Hero, reaches Level 28 (time 3:16).

When they reach the chamber south of the main stairway, they head south. At the end, they go down another stairway to B3 (time 3:54). North and east, a stairway leads up to the eastern hallway of B2 (time 3:59).

While crossing this hallway, Lena, the Daughter, reaches Level 28 (time 5:50).

To the north, they will find one of Bishop Ladja's goons, Slon the Rook (time 6:45). They heal up a little before facing him.

After some brief dialogue, it is time to battle Slon the Rook (time 7:09). There is not much to this guy. He is mostly a heavy physical hitter, so multiple Kabuffs will help. Putting Oomph on the physical attackers will increase the party's damage output. The Staff of Salvation is a great way to heal for free.

After the party has brought down Slon the Rook, they can examine the chest he was guarding and retrieve the Dragon's Left Eye (time 9:37).

Before continuing, you can Evac to heal and save. For my part, I will have the party backtrack to the main stairway and continue on.

Back at the main stairway, they head west again (time 12:24). When they reach the stairway to the west, they go down and back up again so they can get to the western side (time 13:41). Then, they follow the corridor north, east, and north again.

To the north, they find the stairway leading down to the northern part of B3 (time 15:35). Oh, dear ... I recognize that murderous demon priest waiting to the north. Definitely heal up and restore MP before approaching him.

After preparing, the party approaches Bishop Ladja (time 16:06). How could Madason possibly forget his father's murderer?

After brief dialogue, the party must do battle against Bishop Ladja (time 16:36). Bishop Ladja can blow blistering flames on the party for about 50 points of damage to everyone. He also has a nasty Kafrizzle spell that can do over 100 points of damage. His physical attacks are pretty powerful, as well. He has a Bounce spell, as well.

Insulatle is one of the party's best friends in this fight. Multiheal is helpful, but it is not strictly necessary as long as Insulatle is in effect. The son's main role is to use Insulatle and keep the party healed. The Meteorite Bracer will really help him in this regard. The daughter should start by using Kasap on Ladja before he gets Bounce on himself. Then, she can use Oomph on the physical attackers. If Madason uses Absorb Magic on a party member, that party member will get some MP back if Ladja strikes him or her with Kafrizzle. If you have the Golem along, its Muster Strength ability, combined with Oomph, will really help it tear Ladja to pieces.

Upon the bishop's defeat, Madason, A Hero's Father, reaches Level 32 and learns Kaswoosh (time 20:16). Mason the Golem reaches Level 14. Lena, the Daughter, reaches Level 29, passing her twin brother.

However, Bishop Ladja is not ready to admit defeat (time 21:03). Definitely a bad penny! So, poor Pankraz is not avenged yet.

After the scene, the party can open the chest Ladja was guarding and obtain the Dragon's Right Eye (time 23:21).

Now, the party backtracks upstairs. On the way, Heorot, the Legendary Hero, reaches Level 29 (time 25:39).

When they get back up to the ground floor again, they head off to rest and save (time 27:26). Next, they will return to Talon Tower to see what those Dragon's Eyes do.

Thanks for watching!
