[GARP]
Garp: 10500 HP.
Attacks: Normal attack, Slicing Wind (same as Pietro's), Assault (same as
Leona's Arrow Wave).
Not so hard, Slicing Wind hurts, but it shouldn't be too bad as long as you try
to keep spread out. FA + Skill, as usual. Heal Dance, items, or the Milt Orb to
heal. I just don't know what else to say about this fight.
Another Dragon Orb appears and the Dragon Sword absorbs it. An earthquake
starts, looks like it's time to get outta here. The Fairy Queen wishes to
remain with the castle, so the group leaves her. They find Narcia passed out
outside the room and put together that the creature was Narcia. Jilva seems to
have a habit of doing that, no? Pietro picks her up and they all flee from the
castle as it sinks into the lake from which it came. Pietro and Narcia have a
little moment, and Book Three ends.
[BOOK FOUR: DARKNESS]
Narcia is resting at Guilda's, she says the best thing for her right now is
some rest. Guilda explains to the group that the reason Narcia must have gone
was because she wanted to be human. It's impossible to be with someone of a
different race, that's the rule. Pietro points out the obvious fact that he's
here, the child of a dragon and a human, so that can't be true. Guilda reveals
that Narcia is really not a forest witch, she's a fairy. Guilda found her
outside her house during a storm and, after she chose a name for her, which
means "fairy from the blue lake" apparently, raised her. She's an unusual
fairy since she's so big, so Guilda never told her she was a fairy. Well, no
matter what's happening with Narcia, there's the immediate problem of Maira and
the stone tablets. She has three of them, the one from the gods, the humans,
and the fairies, meaning that only the one that the dragons have isn't in her
possession. Time to head there, to protect the last tablet.
-TAKINEN VILLAGE-
Head towards PoPoLoCrois, you have to take the long way since the other path is
blocked again. Along the way, some of Leona's animal friends pop in and pull
her away, her father has finished a new bow for her and she should go see him,
so she leaves. Continue to PoPoLoCrois.
-POPOLOCROIS-
New stuff in the Tech Shop. Nothing else here, head to the castle.
-POPOLOCROIS CASTLE-
There's an odd woman waiting for Pietro, looks like it's Jilva's mother, Queen
Rumba! She's here to take Jilva home, she doesn't really have much of a choice
in the matter and leaves with her mother. Go to the throne room. Pietro
explains the situation to King Paulo, and Paulo says that no matter what the
case, Pietro shouldn't do anything before he gets some rest. White Knight
agrees, and Pietro says he will stay the night. In his dreams, he sees Vasqual,
who begins to tell him something, but then yells for Pietro to wake up. Maira
appears in his room! She attacks Pietro and he evades. The noise has woken
Paulo, who comes into the room to see what's happening as is knocked away by
Maira. Pietro draws his blade, but Maira zaps him a bit and he falls to the
ground. She says she will use Barbaran to overpower Jurius, and Pietro says her
heart is as ugly as her form. Maira starts choking Pietro, but Sania come in.
Maira says that if Sania doesn't let her have her body, then she will kill
Pietro, and Sania gives in. Pietro goes unconscious, and when he awakens Sania
is gone and Paulo is yelling that he will go find her, being help back by some
of the guards and White Knight. Narcia comes in, she knows what's happened.
Paulo tells Pietro that only he can save Sania, and that the fate of the world
is in his hands. No pressure, right?
Equip Narcia with all the new stuff you've gotten for her, like the Meditative
Staff and the Princess Seal. Head out to PoPoLoCrois, on the way, Gilbert does
a fly-by and picks up the group to take them to the Land of Dragons.
-LAND OF DRAGONS-
After landing, Gilbert says you should hurry and see the Great Dragon, and Gabo
comes running up to meet the group. White Knight talks to Gabo a bit, it looks
like "Sania" is already here and has gone to see the Great Dragon! The ground
shakes a bit, and the group runs off to see the Great Dragon. As the group
arrives, we see Maira holding the last tablet and she vanishes. Pietro runs to
Sania, who tries to say something, but then dies. Pietro has a breakdown,
saying that it's always him, he can't do anything to stop this, that he
couldn't do anything to stop his own mother from dieing right in front of him
and that he doesn't care about the world anymore. Narcia slaps him and tells
him that Sania wanted to save this world more then anything, because that's
where the ones she loves are. Pietro snaps back, and says that she's right. The
Great Dragon tells Pietro that Maira must be going to the Sealed Palace,
located beneath Cotrico island. Go to where Gilbert is, the group hops on him
and say they need to get to Cotrico Island as fast as possible. Gabo hops on as
well, he has no intention of being left behind again.
