This is video #06 in my Dragon Warrior III playthrough. In Aliahan, Jessica uses the Agility Seed from Najima Tower's basement to boost her agility. Then, the party leaves town and heads northwest back to Reeve. First, I show off a grass tile in the forest south of Reeve that leads to an isolated section of the Tower of Najima. Those stairs go down to the northeast section of the tower's basement. This means that you do not have to go through the Promontory to get to the tower at all, but you can if you want the cave's modest treasures.

In Reeve (time index 2:12), a man in the northeast house will give the party the Magic Ball, which is needed to open the travel door (i.e. teleporter) in the Cave of Invitation to the southeast. But before traveling there, there is the business of new equipment to acquire in Reeve's equipment shop. The party gets Leather Helmets for Angelo the Pilgrim and Jessica the Wizard. They also get Jessica a Magic Knife. (Why the heck can't we sell things at the equipment shop?)

Next, the party begins hunting around Reeve. There are some stronger enemies in them thar hills to the east. Jessica the Wizard's Firebal spell is quite useful around here. Be careful of the annoying status ailments some enemies can inflict around here. The Babbles can inflict Poison, the Horned Hares can inflict Sleep, and the Masked Moths can inflict blindness.

Alyssa the Fighter quickly reaches Level 7 (time index 7:28 - 8:01).

At night, the party heads back to Reeve for nighttime exploration (time index 8:37). Nothing really special.

When the party resumes their hunting, Angelo soon reaches Level 8 (time index 10:34 - 10:58) and learns the Sap spell. Sap lowers a single enemy's defense. This will prove especially useful in boss battles later on. Before long, Heorot the Hero reaches Level 7 (time index 11:40 - 12:23) and learns the Return spell. As I said before, this spell can be used to return to just about any town the party has visited before. With a cost of 8 MP, it is expensive, but it is worth it. Before long, Jessica reaches Level 8 (time index 13:13 - 13:40).

A few minutes later, the party returns to Reeve (time index 14:20) to get Heorot a Chain Sickle. A nice upgrade over that Copper Sword.

After a little more hunting in the hills east of Reeve, Alyssa reaches Level 8 (time index 15:14 - 15:39).

Finally, the party returns to Reeve to rest up for their next dungeon.

Thanks for watching!
