Quests 5. Credits, Version History, and Other Stuff You Won't Read ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 1. Introduction _________________ Throughout the course of Sword of Mana, entering and exiting the Hot House will cause Li'l Cactus to write entries in his Diary. While some entries can be acquired by simply playing through the story as normal, others must be gotten by completing "Quests." These Quests most often involve helping people met on your travels, and usually end in hefty rewards. Here you'll find a complete guide to completing all 33 Quests. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 2. Stupid Questions _____________________ 1) Q. Are there any Quests that must be done during a certain period of time? A. Yes. In particular, Quests 19, 23, 29, 33, 35, 37, and 38 must be done at particular times. ALL of the Quests must be done before entering Dime Tower since you cannot return to the main world once you enter it. Please refer to the "Quest Availability" listed for each Quest to see when a Quest is, well, available. 2) Q. I'm trying to get a Glittering Sword/Armor/Helm, but the enemy isn't dropping one! A. Make sure you're defeating the enemy that drops the item LAST, because only the last enemy defeated will drop the Chest (it's actually a bit more complicated than that, but to make things simple just defeat them last). Also keep in mind that those items are dropped only 10% of the time, so it may take a while before you get one. 3) Q. I have extra Glittering Swords/Armos/Helms, and I already finished the Glittering Quests. Can I use them for anything else? A. Nope, their only use is for the Glittering Quests. You can't even sell them for Lucre. 4) Q. Are there any Quests that only Hero or only Heroine can do? A. No, Hero or Heroine can both do all 33 Quests. However, they do have one unique diary entry each, but those are received by playing through the story. 5) Q. Is it possible to miss diary entries if I don't talk to Li'l Cactus immediately, as in Legend of Mana? A. Nope, as long as you complete the Quest, there's no time limit on when you can get the entry. Interestingly enough, you only have to talk to Li'l Cactus at least once, and then for the rest of the game he'll write entries regardless of whether or not you talk to him again. 6) Q. I gave Li'l Cactus away, and now I can't access the Spirit Rescue Quest. A. You can get him back. First go to the Hot House and read the note where Li'l Cactus used to be. Go back to Lorimar Castle and speak with the gentleman to whom you gave Li'l Cactus. He'll give him back. 7) Q. I can't get a Spirit Upgrade Quest to work! A. Make sure you read ALL of the requirements and the Quest Availability. 8) Q. Do you get anything for completing the Cactus Diary? A. Other than a sense of accomplishment (or otherwise feeling that you've wasted your time), no, you don't get anything. 9) Q. I can't seem to get any Moondrops for the Moondrop Quest. A. Despite what the guy says, you DON'T have to fight at Night to get a Moondrop. Skull Drakes and Fierce Faces both drop them at a roughly 10% drop rate. Skull Drakes will appear during the Day or the Night, while Fierce Faces only appear at Night. The best way to get them is to go one screen north of Ishe, then one screen east. Fight here during the Day so you can fight 4 Skull Drakes that are very close to each other. Do your best to defeat them all at the same time to increase your chances of getting a Chest. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 3.

Quests __________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 18 ~ General Store Ads ~ 18 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: First Arrival in Wendel - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: None Reward Get: Dudbears Gold and 440 Lucre Go to the Wendel General Store and speak with Dohmi. He'll ask you to pass out some leaflets to get people to come into the store. Tell him yes. You now have to give out 15 Leaflets. Here are the people you can give them to, their locations, and what times they appear (note that it's not necessary to give them out in any particular order). South 1) Wendel Woman - General Store (All) 2) Wendel Gentleman - Outside, walking a bit northwest of General Store (All) 3) Wendel Woman - Outside, walking a bit northwest of General Store (Morning- Evening) 4) Suspicious Guy - Outside, walking a bit northwest of General Store (Night) 5) Wendel Grandfather - Outside, near the center of town (All) 6) Traveling Man - Outside, near the center of town (Night) 7) Guy Who Won't Work - Wendel Residence, second floor (All) North 8) Wendel Girl - Outside, near the Blacksmith (All) 9) Wendel Gentleman - Outside, near fountain (Morning-Night) 10) Wendel Gentleman - Outside, near fountain (All) 11) Wendel Maiden - Outside, near fountain (All) 12) Sodje - Outside, near fountain (Evening) 13) Blacksmith's Son - Blacksmith (All) 14) Traveling Youth - Inn (All) 15) Unkempt Vagabond - Inn, upper-right room (Night) Remember that time cycles as follows: Morning (Sunrise), Day, Evening (Sunset), Night, back to Morning. If you still have on Leaflet left, you're probably missing Sodje, who appears only at Evening (Sunset). To get to the town during the Evening, try staying at the Inn overnight. You'll wake up during the Morning, which will allow you to cycle through the time so you can get to Wendel during the Evening. Also, you could save at the Statue in Wendel, walk around until it's Evening, then use the Magic Rope to return to town. Anyway, once you've handed out all of the Leaflets, return to Dohmi, who will give you 440 Lucre as well as a Dudbears Gold. QUEST CLEAR! I so thought this Quest was a bore, Chief passing out ads for the store. Though everyone seed'em Nobody would read'em, And all was the same as before. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 19 ~ Shiny Knight ~ 19 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: First Arrival at Wendel - Boarding Airship (Hero) or Meeting Cibba (Heroine) Item Need: None Reward Get: 100 Lucre Go to the Wendel Inn and speak with Vega. He'll ask you to bring him a Glittering Sword so he can get a new job. Tell him yes. To get the Glittering Sword, fight Pincher Crabs on the Wendel Coast or Mushbooms in the Mushboom Forest until they drop one (there's a 10% chance that, if they drop a Chest, it will a Glittering Sword). Bring the item back to Vega and give it to him for 100 Lucre and QUEST CLEAR! NOTE!!! This Quest can only be done from the time period after your first arrival at Wendel but BEFORE you board the Airship (Hero) or before you meet with Cibba (Heroine). You MUST also do this Quest or else you won't be able to do Quests 29, 33, or 38 later on. We helped out some guy in a pinch, And snagged him some goodies--a cinch. But I'm guessin' the lesson we need: Was he conned or a true friend indeed? _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 20 ~ Praying ~ 20 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: Malyris Defeated - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: None Reward Get: Spirit Upgrade To get the 7th and final upgrade, you must have all six previous upgrades (for a total of 7 Spirits). You MUST also have completed Quest 24 by giving Pablo (who is in the Cathedral during the day) at least 10 Chocolumps. Go to the Wendel Cathedral at night on the day of the Spirit you wish to upgrade (if you haven't gotten the point by now, to upgrade Wisp and Shade you must visit on a Mana Holy Day) and approach the altar. Pray at the altar and a special event will happen... You will receive the final upgrade and QUEST CLEAR. Note that you only have to do this for one Spirit to finish the Quest. Note that you MUST complete Quest 24 before a Spirit will appear at the altar. If every sunset you manage to pray, Forces above'll assist you someday. With the Goddess, I ain't got a beef, And I'll even stop teasing the Chief. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 21 ~ Silver Knife ~ 21 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: First Arrival in Wendel - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Silver Knife Reward Get: Kittypie Go to the Wendel Inn and speak to Emirilie, who is on the first floor of the lobby. After he whines a bit, select "Hear the details." When he asks if you'll find the knife for him, tell him "No, you stupid, lazy kid. Get it yourself." Okay, that's not an option, but it should be. Choose "You bet!" and the Quest will begin. Go to the nearby Blacksmith and speak to Dohel and Donga, who will mention that their dwarven brother, Dofar, has been missing the entire day and apparently doesn't want to be a dwarf anymore. Return to the Wendel Inn and enter the upper-right room. In the upper-right corner you'll find a nameless dwarf. He'll reveal that he's quitting dwarfing, so he must be Dofar! Dohel appears and reveals that he's a major drama queen. He cries thinking of how Emirilie doesn't have his knife because of Dofar's selfishness. Speak with Dofar and he'll have a change of heart. He's decided to go back to work, and tells you to give the knife to Emerilie. Leave the room and speak to Emirilie on the first floor. Give him the knife and he'l be so grateful that he gives you... a Kittypie. Woohoo... Although it's not a Dudbears' Gold, at least it's QUEST CLEAR! I've notice how dwarves Consist mainly of beards. Do you think if you shaved one, He'd just disappear? _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 22 ~ Detective Story ~ 22 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: Waking Up in Ishe - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Keepsake Pendant Reward Get: Tiny Tapper, 200 Lucre Go to the Wendel Cathedral at Night, where "Inger" will tell you something has been stolen. Talk to her before you leave the screen, and tell her you'll find the thief (if you don't talk to her, return during the Day and speak with her in the Cathedral). Your job is to catch the thief. Go to the screen with the Blacksmith and Inn. The thief is near the bottom left of the screen, and is visible between a crate and a rooftop (at Night!). Talk to him to "catch" him. He'll run off again, so you must find him again. Next, head to the General Store (any time seems to be fine), where you'll find him on the right side of the room. Talk to him and he'll disappear again. This next part is VERY important! Go to the Inn and spend the night. When you wake up, it should be Sunrise. It's very hard to achieve this time here any other way than sleeping at the Inn. Anyway, go to the left of the part Blacksmith that juts out. This is the thief's final hiding place (again, it isn't hard to see him standing there- stupid thief). The thief will giv you the Keepsake Pendant. Return to the Cathedral and speak to Inger (her original Japanese name was Ingrid, by the way), who will give you the Tiny Tapper and 200 Lucre! QUEST CLEAR! The Tiny Tapper has the ability to shrink/grow you. Find it in the Mystery Items menu. With pendant in hand. All returned to the town. Thank Godess the Chief Wouldn't say what went down. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 23 ~ Soldier's Orders ~ 23 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: First Arrival at Wendel - Boarding Airship (Hero) or Meeting Cibba (Heroine) Item Need: None Reward Get: Dudbears Gold Go to the Wendel Inn at any time BUT night. Near Moti you'll find a Granz Soldier. Speak with him (his name is Umberto). Tell him you want the work, and then accept the job. Your Quest is to find the Mana believers. First, go to the Wendel Residence in the south part of town at NIGHT. You'll find out the Guy Who Won't Work is one of the people Umberto is looking for. Leave the town and wander around until it's Day again. Return to the Inn and speak to Umberto once more. Tell him that you indeed saw something. Go back to the Residence. Umberto will come in with you, and you'll find out he was a double agent all along. Arnold will then give you a Dudbears Gold as a show of friendship. QUEST CLEAR! Got close to a shifty-eyed guy, And found inside him an ally. But for all the suffering and pain, We fell far short of fiscal gain. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 24 ~ The Point of Church ~ 24 Location: Town of Wendel Quest Availability: Waking Up in Ishe - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Chocolump (x10-50) Reward Get: Dudbears Gold (x5) Enter the Wendel Cathedral at any time other than night. Sitting in one of the left pews is a young child named Pablo. Talk to him and he will request some Chocolumps (if only children really did get chocolate in Church). Give him one, and he'll give you... absolutely nothing! Speak with him nine more times and give more Chocolumps (for a total of ten), and he'll hand over a shiny new Dudbears Gold! QUEST CLEAR! You can now go to Li'l Cactus and get him to write the diary entry, however, you're not really done yet. If you give him 40 more Chocolumps, he'll continue to give you another Dudbears Gold for each 10. Basically, if you give Pablo a total of 50 Chocolumps, you can get a total of 5 Dudbears Gold. Note that you must first complete this Quest before you can complete Quest 20 - Praying. I think I shall never partake Something as good as church poundcake. And don't forget some cupcakes too, The prayerful kind they make for you! _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 25 ~ Mavole Blood ~ 25 Location: Topple Village Quest Availability: First Arrival in Topple - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Blood Pouch (x10) Reward Get: 100 Lucre, 500 Lucre, or 1000 Lucre and Dudbears Gold Go to Topple Village. At night, go to the second floor of the Topple Inn and speak to Blassie III. He'll ask for some Blood Pouches, which are dropped by Batmos (albeit very rarely- there's only a 10% chance that, if they drop a Chest, it'll contain it). Speak with him again, and if you have 10 Blood Pouches, he'll give you 1000 Lucre and a shiny new Dudbears Gold. If you have 5, he'll give you 500 Lucre. This may be repeated ad nauseum, so if you're lazy, you can get all of your Dudbears through this method. Have fun trying to get that many Blood Pouches, however... Note that you only have to give him 1 Blood Pouch for QUEST CLEAR. Some weirdo asked if we would fetch The stomach of a bat. I don't think I'll even ask The use he has for that. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 26 ~ Where is Dad? ~ 26 Location: Topple Village Town of Wendel Menos Village Town of Jadd Town of Ishe Lorimar Castle Quest Availability: First Arrival in Topple - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Barbecued Newt Reward Get: Dudbears Gold Go to the Topple General Store and speak with the young chap named Luke. He'll ask you to go on a long, arduous wild goose chase to find his father. He'll tell you that his dad works in Wendel, and they usually write letters to each other, but lately he hasn't been receiving any. Concerned about his health, he and his family want you to give his dad, Marco, some Barbecued Newt. Tell him yes and the Quest will begin. Your first task will be to go to Wendel. Go to the Wendel Residence (the house on the upper-left of the southern part of town) and speak with Thatcher, who will notice that you have some Barbecued Newt. She'll mention someone who loved it who used to sell stuff for the Blacksmith... If you're too dense to figure out what's next, go to the Blacksmith in the north section of town and speak with Navali the dwarf. He'll tell you that the man said he had found a job in Menos (wow, this guy can't keep a steady job, huh?). Your next destination is the Town of Menos. Go to the Menos Residence that's to the right of the Statue in the center of town. Speak with Kralove inside, who will tell you that Marco most likely is now in Jadd due to high unemployment rates in Menos. In Jadd, go to Blacksmith and speak with Radley. Again, he'll be reminded of the man from Topple and will tell you that the man told him he got a job at Devius Manor. The Quest continues... Go to Devius Manor and head to the second floor. Speak with Priscilla and she'll also recognize the Barbecue Newt. She'll tell you that the man went looking for a job that made more than slave wages at Ishe. Make your way to Ishe and look for Yakov, who is standing outside of Selah's House. He'll tell you the lowlife is laying low in Lorimar (hooray for alliteration). Go to Lorimar Castle and head for the room with the Inn (one of the upper- right rooms). You'll find a soldier named Marco. Could it be?? Talk to him and he'll eat the Barbecued Newt. He'll explain that he's become a mercenary for money, but promises he'll be home soon. He gives you a Barbecued Tail to give to his son. NOTE!!! Although Marco is ALWAYS at Lorimar Castle, YOU MUST speak with all of the people on the annoying wild goose chase or else he won't recognize that you have the Barbecued Newt. Take the Tail back to Luke in the Topple General Store. He'll have hope in seeing his father again, and will give you a Dudbears' Gold as thanks! Aww, all we needed as thanks was the smile on his face... Oh, who are we kidding? Give us more DUDBEAR GOLD, darn it! Anyway, after a long journey... QUEST CLEAR! I'll feast upon barbecued newt Until the day I die. Whene'er Dad gets it on his face, I laugh until I cry. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 27 ~ Goddess Gracious ~ 27 Location: Various Quest Availability: Malyris Defeated - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: Trait Coins Reward Get: Spirit Upgrade One of the hardest Spirit Upgrades to accomplish (if you don't know where to look), you must first make sure you have the following: A) At least three upgrades (for a total of four Spirits) for the particular Spirit you wish to upgrade. B) At least ten Trait Coins of the same type as the Spirit you wish to upgrade. Once you have both of the above accomplished, you must then travel to certain areas on specific days.

If you're playing as Heroine, you didn't have to go there. If you need to know how to get there, take the west exit out of Wendel, then generally make your way northeast. Read the signs if you get lost. Anyway, after you enter the Mine, head left and jump down. Exit through the passage on the left. Inside, you'll find a room full of Dudbears. Speak to all of them until one tells you "Give us back the black mask" in "Dudbearese." Cough it up and you'll receive a Dudbears' Gold! Return to the Menos Inn and speak to Toma once more.

In the General Store, speak to Denton, the man in the upper-left corner. He'll be excited that you have a Black Mask, and offers you 500 Lucre for it. Tell him no, and he'll offer 800 Lucre. Again, tell him no, and he'll offer 1000 Lucre. Tell him no one more time, and this time he'll offer THREE Dudbears Gold. Accept his offer! If you decline, he won't offer you anything else. WARNING! Giving the Black Mask to Denton will make you fail the Quest, and Li'l Cactus won't write a diary entry about it! Do this only if you don't care about having a complete diary! Really! Is it too much to ask For a gander at Dudbears' black masks? But their odor is so dang atrocious; Like garlic breath with halitosis. _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 31 ~ Eight Coins ~ 31 Location: Menos Village Quest Availability: Item Need: Trait Coins Reward Get: Dudbears Gold Go to the Menos Blacksmith and speak with the Granz Soldier named Delmar.

Exit to the right. In the next screen, look for the geode sparkle in the light brown patch of dirt. Moon Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Glass Desert Armory Directions: Head to the Glass Desert Armory. Search above the cannon for the Moon Geode. The cannon covers the stone, so you won't be able to see it sparkle. Fire Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Subsea Volcano Directions: From the first room of the Subsea Volcano, head north to the next room. In the next room, take the northeast exit. The next room (which has many Grumpkins) has the Fire Geode. It's in the upper-right, sitting in the pool of lava. Water Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Lake Vicinity Directions: After you exit Gaia and meet Cibba, go left one screen from Cibba's camp. Head up the cliff to find it. If you're playing as Heroine, you didn't have to go to Gaia or the Lake Vicinity. To get there, head west from Wendel and follow the signs to get to Gaia, then make your way through Gaia Cave to end up at the Lake. Wood Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Topple Armory Directions: The geode is on the lower-left of the screen with the Cannon. Wind Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Rocky Wilds Directions: Near the entrance to the Subland River. Lower-right of screen. Earth Geode ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Road to Topple Directions: Return to the first area of the Road to Topple (if you played as Hero, where Niccolo first fished you out of the water; if you played as Heroine, one screen above where you first met Hero). To the right of the Goddess Statue you'll see the augite sparkling in the trees. To reach it, you MUST have the Tiny Tapper (please refer to the Secrets or Quest Chapter). Use it to shrink yourself, then go through the trees to pick up the Geode. Chief found this spirit in a rock! Discoveries are swell!

Inside you'll find an elderly gentleman named Frolan. Speak with him a couple of times and he'll offer to upgrade your Spirits. To do so, however, you need: A) At least two upgrades (for a total of three Spirits) for the particular Spirit you wish to upgrade. B) At least ten Trait Coins of the same type as the Spirit you wish to upgrade. For example, to upgrade Wisp, you must have already completed two Spirit Upgrade Quests for Wisp so that you have Wisp x3. Additionally, you must have 10 Light Coins. Note that this Upgrade USES UP your Elemental Coins (if you had 10, you'll end with 0), so it's recommended that you do the Spirit Blessings quest first since that one also requires Coins but does NOT use them up. All you have to do is upgrade one Spirit to get QUEST CLEAR. Please refer to Quest 31 for Trait Coin information, including which monsters drop them. The icefield has a nasty chill! I'm sniffles, snorts, and sneezes.

In other words, keep using the Spirit's attack magic on enemies until its Skill Level on the Status Screen is 30. Go to any Hot House, then exit. The Spirit will contact you, asking for assistance. Each Spirit is rescued in a different place. If you have more than one Spirit at Level 30, just keep entering and exiting Hot House to get the other ones to ask for help. Also, the Spirit will not contact you until Li'l Cactus is finished writing any diary entries that he's still waiting to right, so just keep on entering and exiting the Hot House until the Spirit shows up. You must now go to the appropriate locations and defeat a Black Dudbear to free the Spirits. For exactl location, please read the Magic Chapter. Free at least one Spirit to get QUEST CLEAR. Since a lot of the Spirit Rescues take place in areas not easily accessible by Cannon, it's recommended that you try to do more than one at a time. For example, Luna, Dryad, Gnome, and Jinn are basically all on the same path, so try to do those four at the same time. Similarly, to reach Salamander you'll have to go through the place where Undine is anyway. Shade and Wisp are the only ones that don't appear near the others, and are relatively easy to reach by Cannon. Wisp ~~~~~~ Location: Vinquette Hall Directions: After entering the dungeon area, head up, up, up (through the middle door), down (stairs), up, up, down, up. If that's too confusing (and it likely is), go to the Dining Room (where you fought the Werewolf). Fight the Black Dudbear that appears. Defeat it and you'll upgrade Wisp. Shade ~~~~~~~ Location: Sealed Cave Directions: From the entrance, head up one room, walk to the left, then go down one room. The Black Dudbear appears in the room with two Switches and lots Shadow Zero Ones. Luna ~~~~~~ Location: Devius Manor Directions: From the entrance of the actual dungeon (after Medusa's Room), go up (stairs), down (stairs), down (stairs), up (stairs), up (stairs), up (stairs).

Salamander ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Subsea Volcano Directions: From the entrance, head up, up, up, right. Defeat the Black Dudbear to rescue Salamander. Undine ~~~~~~~~ Location: Subland River Directions: After entering, head right, up, left, right, up. You'll end up in the room where you had to drain the pool of water. Fight the Black Dudbear here to rescue Undine. Dryad ~~~~~~~ Location: Cascade Cave Directions: From the entrace, go up, up, left, right, up. Fight the Black Dudbear to free Dryad. Jinn ~~~~~~ Location: Granz Castle Directions: After entering, head up, up, up, up. The Black Dudbear appears in the room where you got the Lance. Defeat it to save Jinn. Gnome ~~~~~~~ Location: Mt. Illusia Directions: After entering, head up, down (out of the cave), up (into a cave), down (out of the cave), up (into a cave), down (out of the cave), and up (NOT into the cave, though!). Too confusing? Well, just go to the place where you got the Mace, and that's where the Black Dudbear is. Defeat it to rescue Gnome. Dark Dudbears to Mavolia? But then I could be wrong. If you want to know more Next time I'll tag along! _______________________________________________________________________________ _/¯¯¯¯\_________________________________________________________________/¯¯¯¯\_ 50 ~ Achy Shaky Heart ~ 50 Location: Various Quest Availability: Malyris Defeated - Before Entering Dime Tower Item Need: None Reward Get: Spirit Upgrade This Quest involves praying at specific Mana Statues (both Gold and Silver) at specific times of day. To achieve QUEST CLEAR, you only need to do this for one Spirit. To complete these you need: A) At least two upgrades (for a total of three Spirits) for the particular Spirit you wish to upgrade. Next, you must "pray" at specific Goddess Statues at specific areas at a specific time. Specific enough for you? "How do you pray?" you ask? Simply save at the Goddess Statue at the appropriate time and the Spirit will ppear after you exit the save screen. The Spirit will appear and ask you a question. Choose the first option to upgrade the Spirit. If you accidentally choose no, you can try again. In case you're wondering, the Day does NOT matter. Wisp ~~~~~~ Location: Road to Cave Time: Morning/Day Directions: Simply save at the Gray Goddess Statue outside of Batmo Cave and Wisp will appear. Shade ~~~~~~~ Location: Town of Ishe Time: Night Directions: Pray at the Ishe Inn Gray Goddess Statue and Shade will appear. Luna ~~~~~~ Location: Prickly Desert Time: Night Directions: Pray at the Gray Goddess Statue right outside the northern entrance to Jadd. Salamander ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Location: Path to Gaia Time: Day/Evening Directions: Save at the Gray Goddess Statue in the Path to Gaia. The statue is on the first screen of the Path to Gaia after you enter it from the Road to Abandoned Mine. Undine ~~~~~~~~ Location: Marsh Cave Time: Morning/Day Directions: Head deep into the Marsh Cave until you reach the Gold Goddess Statue right before the area where you fight Hydra. Save there and Undine will appear. Dryad ~~~~~~~ Location: Road to Mt. Illusia Time: Night Directions: After exiting the Cascade Cave but before entering Mt. Illusia there will be a Gold Goddess Statue. Pray there to make Dryad appear. Jinn ~~~~~~ Location: Vinquette Outskirts Time: Morning/Day Directions: Save at the Gray Goddess Statue on the same screen as the Hot House and Jinn will appear. Gnome ~~~~~~~ Location: Town of Ishe Time: Morning/Day Directions: Save at the Gray Goddes Statue in the Ishe Inn and Gnome will appear. Yes, it's the same as Shade's, except during the Day. With so many Statues around the world, one can only wonder why they had two Spirits share the same Statue. Divine protection's quite a gift! Though of this I've been leery, A Goddess watches over us? Hey, Goddess, can you hear me? _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 5.
