This run was pretty insane. But why is Primm casting Popoie's spells...?

Well, that's because there is a setting on the rando where you can change or randomize any of the three characters' roles (i.e. you can have Randi take on either Primm or Popoie's role and have him cast spells, or you can have Primm take on Randi's role and go magic-less). They also have the stat growths of the changed characters as well. So in this instance, I have Primm take on Popoie's role as an offensive spellcaster instead of her normal support caster role, and thus why she is using spells like Burst, Freeze and Magic Absorb here.

Anywho, I find an early Dryad, so I have access to the Burst spell. It's expensive early on, but worth it because it can potentially two-shot and eventually, one-shot bosses while they are still low level. I farmed Faerie Walnuts from the Terminators outside Undine's Cave so I could save some cash on buying them, and with Burst costing 4 MP per spell, we need them. Then, the seeds came rolling in. Undine shows up a bit later, and eventually, Luna shows up, and I decide to get her up two levels for the Magic Absorb spell. I also get lucky with the Fire Palace and Moon Palace orbs both requiring elements I had access to.

That earth seed worried me though, as it could've been in a spot that I would least expect it to be, so I decided to clear Pure Land in hopes of finding it there so I wouldn't have to go back. No dice, but I eventually find it in the back of Empire Ruins.

Other settings for this run include:
- TG (Timed Growth)
- RL (Restrictive Logic)
