Previously, Luca, Rydia, Edge, and the Man in Black visited Kaipo. There, they revived Yang and Ursula and got the Summon spell Sylph for Rydia. They also visited Eblan Castle and got her the Summon spell Ifrit. Now, they will check out the Cave of Eblan and then check out Troia.
Eblan Castle:
The party resumes at the save point on floor 1F of the castle's main keep. The shops are back in operation on 1F and 2F.
At the weapon shop, the party picks up an Ashura and Chakrams for Edge.
On floor 2F of the West Tower, the party can now access the hidden western stairway to 1F and open the chest for a Boltslicer. This is a lightning-elemental katana for Edge.
In Edge's Bedchamber, the party examines Edge's chest for a Small Tale.
On floor 1F of the East Tower, the party can now access the western room and open the chest for a Red Fang.
On floor 2F of the East Tower, they can now open the western chests for a Silent Bell and a Remedy.
After this, the party leaves the castle.
Overworld (time 8:11):
The party rests aboard the Falcon. Then, they go west and enter the Cave of Eblan.
Cave of Eblan (time 9:11):
The enemies here are fairly dangerous, so be careful.
On floor B1, chests in the north contain a Remedy and an Ether. A chest in the southeast contains a Phoenix Down. A chest in the south contains an X-Potion. In the northwest, a chest contains a Hi-Potion.
The party continues down to floor B2.
Luca reaches Level 42.
The central chest on B2 contains a Spider Silk.
Rydia reaches Level 42 and learns the Black Magic spell Firaga.
The western chest on B2 contains a Phoenix Down.
The party continues on to the Cave of Eblan - 1st Path.
The chest just east of the southwest exit contains a Phoenix Down. The chest near the northwest exit contains a Hi-Potion. A hidden path south of this chest leads to another chest with a Spider Silk.
A rock east of the Hi-Potion chest contains Small Tail #16.
The party continues north to the Cave of Eblan - 2nd Path.
A chest in the northwest contains an X-Potion.
The Man in Black reaches Level 44.
The party finds a collector of Small Tails in the middle of the floor. They can trade him 14 Small Tails for a Rainbow Tail or 7 Small Tails for any other color tail. They will return to him later.
A chest in the north contains Hermes Sandals.
The party takes the south-central exit to the 1st Path. A chest just west of the door contains a Bacchus's Wine. East of the door, chests contain a Vampire Fang and a Lilith's Kiss.
East of the Lilith's Kiss chest, a hidden passage leads to chests with a Cottage and an Ether.
In the southwest of this section of the 1st Path, a chest contains a Mallet. In the southeast, chests contain a Potion and two Hi-Potions.
The party exits northeast to the 2nd Path. Just northwest of the door, a chest contains a Dry Ether. Another chest on the plateau above contains an Ether.
The door to the east leads to a save room. A hidden passage east of the save point leads to a treasure chest with a Kotetsu, an upgrade for Edge.
Near the northeast exit, a hidden passage in the wall leads west to a chest with a Black Cowl. Edge equips this.
A scene takes place when the party approaches the northeastern door. They cannot go any farther. Worse yet, a hideous boss draws near!
It is boss time against the Marquis Malboro. This overgrown weed's only problematic attack is Bad Breath.
After the battle, the party obtains the Kiku-ichimonji. Edge equips this.
The party still cannot approach the Tower of Babil. So, they use an Emergency Exit to teleport to the surface.
Overworld (time 34:50):
The party rests aboard the Falcon. Then, they fly to Troia. They enter the town of Troia.
Troia (time 36:20):
All the buildings are closed, but the shopkeepers are selling their wares outdoors. The party picks up an Elfin Bow and Silencing Arrows for Rydia.
In the northwestern meadow, the party can find a few hidden treasures: a Dry Ether, an X-Potion, a Decoy, and an Ether.
On the northern side of the armor shop, Small Tail #17 is hidden.
The party leaves town.
Overworld (time 43:13):
They enter Troia Castle.
Troia Castle (time 43:28):
A scene takes place when the party arrives. Unfortunately, Troia Castle has been frozen over.
When the party enters the Crystal Chamber beyond the Epopt Chamber, another scene takes place. Luca recommends the party's next destination.
