Let's Play Phantasy Star IV #20: Let Them Eat Shortcake
After spending some time in a town where a hero of yore decided to settle – one that’s certainly not going to become plot important at some point later on, I’m sure – it’s just a short drive in our vehicle to the Ladea Tower. Rune is somewhere in there, likely with Dorin for some unknown reason and we need Rune’s help if Alys is to have any chance of surviving the malady she’s suffering from thanks to Zio. You’d think that right now, there’s nothing that we could possibly want to do that’d distract us from this all-important task.
That’s where you’d be wrong.
The guild periodically puts up new side missions for us to do, that much we know from the first we did. The only problem with them is that each one is time sensitive; access to them is opened up by an event but some of them, if not all, will be closed off by a later event. Having never played the game before, I don’t know when the missions will appear or when they’ll disappear, so periodic checks of the guild are required. If a mission is there, I can’t take the chance that it’ll still be there after progressing the plot some more, so I need to drop everything and get them done. The rewards are certainly worth it though, with large payments of meseta and sometimes equally large amounts of experience from difficult and entirely optional encounters.
So, what side mission could show up that’s so urgent, we need to delay finding Rune? All I’ll say is that it’s a ruff task indeed, no bones about it.
