So we sacrificed the Talon to clear up the sandstorm, which was quickly replaced by the Talon2 in Talonberg. Then, we raided a few caves just to, mostly, get a few more crystals. Now, it's time to put the plot back in motion.
And the whole way magic is handled in this game...it's useful, don't get me wrong, but the sheer lack of magic restoring items for the first 2/3rds of the game means that you're probably stuck saving it for the big nasty enemies if at all possible...and really, don't bother with status spells. Those are wasted on anything but bosses, and bosses are largely immune. By the time MP restoring items show up, you have half of the mystic swords and are nearly at the endgame, so it's nice to have the magical option, but you're probably just used to swording your way through things.
