WHY? - Purpose of guide 2. SOME NOTES - Important Info 3. GETTING STARTED - Naming your character, etc. 4. SO... - Details on how to leave the first town 5. INFO - Contact info 6. THANKS - Thank you list ____ /WHY?\ ^^^^^^ The purpose of this guide is to inform gamers how to leave the first town, thus starting them on their quest. Despite the apparent absurdness of this FAQ, it's existance actually is justified. I know how insane it must sound to actually need a FAQ to leave the first town of an RPG but if you've had the displeasure of playing Airs Adventure than you will understand the need for this guide. After seeing the "How do I leave town?" question pop up every so often, I decided a FAQ was needed and I guessed I'd be the one to do it. So, with a little trial and error and about 30 minutes of free time I came up with a fool proof method of leaving the first town. What a pain in the ass! So, if you have masochistic tendencies and would like to progress a little bit in this travesty of a game, here goes. __________ /SOME NOTES\ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ I cannot read Japanese, so all of the info contained herein was gathered via guesswork and luck. I have no clue what is going on in the story or why you have to go through these steps to leave the town. All I know is, it works. I have NO intention of continuing this FAQ any further. My goal is not to provide a comprehensive walkthrough, only a sure fire method of leaving the first town and I feel I have accomplished this goal. I do not care to play the game any further. As such, any emails I recieve asking for help on this game will be deleted. Now that that is out of the way... _______________ /GETTING STARTED\ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Wait for the title screen and press start. Choose Data 1 and you will be brought to a screen with a bunch of Japanese characters. Walk your character over the second option from the top on the right side of the screen and press the A button. This will change it to Roman(English) characters. Enter the Hero's name. I'm partial to MJ, as the hero looks like Michael Jackson. After you've got a name chosen, walk over the bottom right option and press A. A short scene will play, followed by another naming screen, this time for the Heroine. Name her and choose the bottom right option again. Another short scene will play and you will be taken to a screen with two options. Choose the top option and the game will begin. ______________________________ /SO, HOW THE HECK CAN I LEAVE? \ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Let the intro play, or skip it via the start button. Some guy will lecture you, just jam on the A button. Ignore everyone, and head directly into the church. Press start to skip the scene and then prepare for battle. You can attack with the B button. It should take two hits to bring the guy down. After the battle you are placed in a dungeon. Head to the treasure chest. If you can't find your way, make sure the television is on as there is only one path. Press A to open the chest. Turn around and start walking. A secret door will open. There are two paths, you want the path heading straight. You are now outside the church again. Go south, then east a bit. Now head north about halfway up and the item shop should be on your left. Enter it. Buy the only item available(press A three times, and then choose option 3 to leave). Now head south and then west. Talk to the fruit stand owner. Now start walking east. The guy will leave his house to talk to you. Another guy will walk up and say some stuff. When they finish, head as far north east as you can go. You will come to a big building. Enter it and a scene will occur. Watch it or skip it with the start button. Now go west a bit and enter the castle. A guard will come out and talk to you. After he leaves, another guy will come up and talk to you. Now go back to the church(Northwest). One final scene will play. Watch it or skip it with the start button. TA DA! You can now leave town via the east exit. Thus ends one of the most asinine and complicated first sequences for an RPG ever. I hope this helps. The game doesn't get any better from here, but at least now you can see for yourself. I haven't progressed much further so I'm not sure if any similar situations pop up later in the game, but I wouldn't be surprised. ____ /INFO\ ^^^^^^ *NOTE*: Emails asking for gameplay tips will be ignored.
