Remember, you only have Pietro here. It's just him against a whole new batch of
enemies, so play defensively and try to conserve your MP. You can leave and see
Narcia to get healed. Technically you could just Guardian through the whole
place, but where's the fun in that? Start off by heading SE for a chest with a
[FORCE SEED], then go NE. Follow the path around, then when you come to two
staircases take the SW one for [5G], then take the NE one. Head down the
stairs. Follow the staircases and ladder down, then grab the chest for a
[SILVERED BLADE], a great sword. Head down the SW stairs, then up the small NW
ladder, then follow the path downstairs. Follow the path, then go NE past the
ladder for a chest with [300G]. Go back and take the ladder, then go SW for two
chests, a [BLESSED WATER] and a [FOREST TWIG]. Go SE and around, then after you
limb the ladder go SW for a chest with a [FIRE JEWEL]. Go back and take the
stairs NW, then just follow the path and had downstairs. There's only one path,
take it. After the big doorway, you're in a room with three chests, a [NOVA
STONE], [150G], and a [PANACEA]. Head in the big double doors NE. There's what
you came for, the Wisdom Crown. When you examine it, it glows brightly and
Pietro goes unconscious. When he awakens, he's in a dark area, and a man
appears before him, Vasqual, with a prophecy. The world will soon be covered by
darkness, and there will be a catastrophe in PoPoLoCrois.
"Don't be blinded by it's beauty...
It's beauty hides a deceitful heart.
The ocean will be disturbed.
It's words are mesmerizing and graceful but hides an evil truth.
An ancient island lies beneath the ocean.
The future of this world it threatened."
He says you must find out about the "True treasure of the Kings."
Pietro exits the cave, where Narcia is waiting, and it's begun to snow. Pietro
decides not to tell her of what he's seen, and they head back to the treehouse.
It seems the snow didn't last long, and Gon and Don are happy to see you back,
Guilda's been making them clean the house. Pietro's test is almost over, Gon
and Don head with him to return the Wisdom Crown to PoPoLoCrois. There isn't
anywhere else to go, so head to the throne room in PoPoLoCrois Castle. After a
bit of a pep-talk from Gon and Don, Pietro heads in. The kingdom is pleased
that Pietro completed his task, but Pietro is uneasy... He is next in line for
the throne, and the prophecy of disaster... But he knows that whatever lies
ahead, it will be fine, because he isn't alone. Thus ends Book One.
--BOOK TWO: GODDESS TRAP--
It seems Queen Sania is giving birth. Paulo is pacing, more then a little
anxious. He and Pietro begin talking, turns out Paulo used to be called the
Lion-Hearted King, but doesn't say why as a maid comes running into the room to
announce that the Queen has given birth to a princess. Pietro and Paul go to
see her, and the king says Pietro should pick her name. You can only pick
Elena, the other choices Paulo just asks you to be serious. Paulo holds baby
Elena, and a mysterious voice begins speaking, asking Paulo if he would want to
be the powerful Lion King again. Paulo, still holding Elena, begins arguing
with the voice, which is saying that he should once again become the Lion King.
Paulo says his duty is to protect his kingdom and his family. The voice begins
to attack Paulo with some sort of energy, and Elena is effected by it too.
Paulo can stand it, but to resist further could put Elena's life in danger. The
king gives in, and the voice says that with his powers as the Lion King and his
powers as a human, he will server him quite well... "Now you will be regarded,
by all, with dread and fear!" says the voice. Paulo says he and Pietro will
overcome the voice, and that it will not win. The king is surrounded by dark
energy, and changes into the Dark Lion King, clad in black armor and wielding
the powers of darkness. He throws Elena at Pietro and challenges him, The Dark
Lion King Raises his sword, but Paulo fights back inside him and doesn't allow
him to kill Pietro, saying he couldn't resist the evil. He then teleports away.
Sania explains that he was possessed by a dark mind that took over his mind and
body, and that this is a national emergency and that Pietro should go wait in
his room for now. Boy, that was long, huh?
