Previously, we concluded Edge's Tale, as Edge and company fought and fled the Mysterious Girl. Then, we finally started Kain's Tale. After Kain was drawn to the shrine atop Mount Ordeals, he traversed the Devil's Road to Baron. Now, he will explore Baron and then enter the castle.

Overworld:

Kain resumes outside of Baron. He enters town.

Baron (time 0:15):

Kain explores town. The treasures have been replenished for Kain's Tale.

The bush at the southeast corner of the inn's exterior contains a Hi-Potion.

Upstairs in the inn, the chests in the treasure room contain an Ether, a Gold Needle, and a Unicorn Horn.

Kain picks up some consumables at the sundries shop.

On the west side of Rosa's house, the cart contains a Potion.

The equipment shop's back room is closed off. Drat.

At the southeast end of the water channel, there are hidden containers with a Phoenix Down and a Hi-Potion.

In the field in the northwest of town, there are hidden containers with a Spider Silk, a Tent, and a Phoenix Down.

On 2F, chests contain Echo Herbs, a Heavenly Wrath, Bacchus's Wine, and a Hi-Potion.

On 3F, chests contain a Cottage, an X-Potion, and a White Fang.

Kain's search of the rest of the castle turns up nothing else of use.

A scene takes place as Kain enters the Throne Room Passage. It continues into the Throne Room. The Mysterious Girl tells him to get the Wind and Fire Crystals from Fabul and Damcyan. An airship will be awaiting him.

Kain unequips his Mythril Gear. Someone else will be putting it to use before long.

After we gain control, Ceodore and the Hooded Man equip their lovely new Mythril gear. Ceodore equips the Mythril Sword, while the Hooded Man sticks with the Falchion.

In Rydia's House in the northwest, the party takes the hidden passage through the fireplace. In the next room, the treasure chests contain a Potion and a Hi-Potion. In the last room, the chests contain a Phoenix Down and a Blood Sword.

A brief scene takes place when the party examines the gravestone of Rydia's mother. Hm ... just who are you, Hooded Man?

A pond is in the northeast of town. East of the pond, a pair of bushes contains a Bomb Crank.
