Introduction (11/21/00):  Hi.  This is my walkthrough for… oh riiiight, Skies 
of Arcadia.  Up until this point, I have done everything in this guide and 
I've written it while I've played, so it's taken more than a few days.  If you 
want to add anything, have any questions about further along in the game 
(chances are I'm farther than this guide will show, because I don't update 
EVERY day, so I might be able to help even if this guide can't), or any 
comments about it, don't hesitate to email me!  Anyways, I hope this helps you 
out and enjoy.  

Update 1.0 (11/22/00)-  Got farther into the game so I updated.
Update 1.5 (11/25/00)- added input from emails/anyone else, hope it helps!  I 
know it helped me.
Update 2.0 (12/16/00)- Wow!  I'm sorry I haven't updated in so long, but I had 
mid-terms and I work basically 8 hours a day for the holiday season.  So I 
haven't really had time to put in any quality time with Skies of Arcadia, 
although I did get to the part where most people are having trouble… the 
golden man/bird!  Anyways, other than that there aren't really any highlights.  
I'll try to finish the first disc soon, but it's a busy, busy schedule.  

"Seems like you're always stuck in second gear…"
Here's the section where I'll post what people have sent me.  I would 
integrate it into the FAQ itself, but I don't want to seem like I'm taking any 
credit for it.  Great job guys!

"on the first ship, when you run inside and see that fool, Alfonso 
holding your second babe, to the LEFT of the door he runs thru is the 
ALARM SWITCH...press A"

"to the LEFT of VYSE's 
HOUSE, you can enter that big square grey rock for the other treasure 
chest back down in the hideout"




Basics

1.	You can learn new Magic spells by using a certain moon colors to defeat 
opponents.  During battle, when you are selecting which action your 
character will take (Attack, Guard, Magic, etc) just push 'Y' to change 
the color of your weapon, thereby building up points for that magic 
color.  Each color has different spells that you will need throughout 
the game (red is fire, yellow electricity, etc) so be sure to fight with 
many different weapon colors!  Also, you can inflict more damage on 
certain opponents depending on color.  Here's a chart showing which 
colors work well against others:  green beats red, red and purple 
inflict massive damage on each other, red beats blue, blue beats purple, 
purple beats green, blue beats yellow, yellow inflicts massive damage on 
green and yellow and silver both inflict good damage on each other.  
Check the instruction book for more info.
2.	When you respond to people with a set number of replies (like "no I 
don't think we should go" or "yes I do") you will get Swashbuckler 
points.  If you make the correct replies, your rating goes up and people 
are more likely to trust you.  You'll hear a chime after you choose the 
text to respond with, so try and be brave.
3.	Whenever you get moonberries, that means you can learn a new special 
move.  Just go into your "Super Move" section to learn them.
4.	usually every town has at least one CHAM hidden in it as well as at 
least one CHAM in every dungeon (Thanks RaijinGaijin!!)
5.	always BUYING the NEWEST weapon/armor is NOT exactly the bestmethod, as 
often at least one better weapon type and armor type will be found in 
the next dungeon or path to the next land (Thanks to RaijinGaijin 
again!!)
6.	talk to everyone in the towns, as there will be several people joining 
your ship crew from each one (some people are obviously gonna join, but 
others will probably not be so obvious) (Yep, RaijinGaijin 
contributing!)
7.	also, for ship battles, I ran into several Black Pirate ships, but one 
of the first ones gave me a CAPTAIN'S STRIPE so I guess I suggest never 
running from a ship battle (Guess who?  RaijinGaijin again damn!!)

"It's a nice day to… start again!"
The game starts off with a cut scene where the (homosexual??) Captain of the 
Ship (Alfonso) orders the crew to ambush a small little ship with an as of yet 
unnamed girl (Fina) piloting it.  After they capture the girl, they are 
ambushed themselves by (you guessed it!) the Blue Rogues!  Hoorah!  Seriously 
though, after another short real-time cut scene, you are engaged in your first 
battle.  It's pretty easy, here's the lowdown:

"All the small things"
Difficulty Level of Battle:  3/10
Enemies:  2
Allies:  1
Strategy:  This battle is as easy as they come.  One strategy you'd probably 
like to use (I didn't, but now that I think of it, it makes more sense) is to 
attack one crew member with both Vyse and Aika because you'll get two shots on 
them before they ever throw the first punch (or slash, as it were).  I had 
Vyse attack one guy, and Aika attack the other, so they both had just enough 
life left to score some damage points off me (which ended up costing me a 
match with the boss, more on that later!).


After the Valuan Empire Ship suffers a beat down at your hands, you watch yet 
another cut scene in which Vyse's dad (Dyne) takes care of some business.  
After that, it's on your way to the basement!  Once you get down there, be 
sure to check out the chest and open it for some Magic Potion.  Then head 
straight, and open the door to the right.  Once there, you will be graced with 
another cut scene where the Captain of the Ship acts like he's cock of the 
walk.  Get ready, cause it's time for your second battle.  


Difficulty Level of Battle:  1/10
Enemies:  4 
Allies:  1
Strategy:  Wtf these 4 guys are easier to beat than the (only) 2 guys in the 
first battle.  Again, not TOO much strategy.  This time, though, don't worry 
about using both Vyse and Aika to attack one person, as one hit will kill each 
enemy this go-round.  Look how easy that was!

"Only good girls go to heaven"
After you finish off with those guys, walk up the stairs to where Alfonso is 
standing.  Of course, before you get to him he initiates another cut scene and 
runs away with the girl and one of his cronies.  Well, guess what?  That's 
right, you need to go after him.  So get to it!  Open the door he just went 
into (by pressing A on it, incase you didn't know yet…) once you enter the 
room, be sure to open the Chest to the left of you.  Also, there is a save 
point in the room, so save your game as there is a somewhat difficult boss 
challenge coming up.  After you save, you can try to open the door that's 
straight ahead, but the Captain lets you know the door is locked from the 
inside.  I don't understand why he would even answer you trying to unlock it, 
as there is no way for Vyse to know where he went…. But hey I don't make the 
games, I just play them.  Anyways, just go down the path to the right and open 
that door.  You're outside the ship!  Wow, it looks awesome huh?  Yes, it sure 
does.  Climb down the ladder and proceed into a little compartment on the 
ship.  You're treated to a cut scene where that S.O.B. kills one of his own 
men to save his ass from getting in trouble.  After a little arguing, he 
brings out a metal bull who's pretty tough for a first boss.  Here's the 
strategy to beat this bum!

"B.S."
Difficulty of Battle:  8/10
Enemies:  1- Antonio (What's up with these names?  Alfonso?  Antonio?  I'm 
waiting for Ricardo)
Allies:  2
Strategy:  This guy can do some massive damage to you.  His electric shock 
move can take off 100 hit points with no remorse.  Just attack normally with 
Aika, as you don't have any Special Moves or Magic, she does some decent 
damage to him actually.  But, as for Vyse, you should charge up your Special 
Move and unleash it as soon as you can.  You can build up your Spirit Points 
(the thing you need to use Special Moves) by selecting "Focus" instead of 
"Attack".  Eventually, you will wear this beast down and finish him off.  Be 
careful for his counter attacks, as he can theoretically scratch off half of 
your life bar with a reversal + his electric shock attack.  "that wudn't so 
bayd!"

"Fly the unfriendly skies"
After you've finished that beast off, savor the sweet, sweet bonus points and 
powerups you receive.  Then watch Alfonso run away "like the coward he is!!".  
The mission was a success and you collected the money and other goodies.  You 
are then introduced to Fina, who was the girl that was captured by Alfonso.  
It appears as though she doesn't know much about the place she's in; she 
doesn't even know what air pirates are!  They are pirates that are in the air!  
Damn girl!  Anyhow, after you get to know her a bit, go up and talk to your 
dad.  He yells and you and gives you the usual.  Next, it's time to fly the 
ship!  Go up to <name> and he'll tell you to go SOUTH of where you are.  Well, 
do what the man says and head straight south.  Actually, it's South East, but 
you'll see it when you get there, it's to the left of the waterfall.  Also, 
take care of any random encounter business you might… encounter.  Ahh, pirate 
isle!  Watch the cut scene and Vyse's dad calls you up to talk to him.  You 
can stop off at the bar on your way up to the top, but it's just meaningless 
jibber jabbering.  Walk up the ramp to the next level, and you'll see another 
tavern of sorts that sells weapons and items and things.  You can stop there 
too, but you can always go later, you know how dad… I mean captain… hates you 
being late!  So, climb up the ladder and go into the door down the ways.  
After the Cap's conversation with Final is through, head back all the way to 
the bottom and save your game!  

"Holy smokes!  You need booze!"
Head straight to the Batman & Robin-sequel ladder and climb to the top.  But 
don't go through the door with Luke the Raider by it just yet!  Head back over 
to Daddy's "office" and examine the bookshelf (push A on the bookshelf!)  A 
secret!  Woo!  Proceed through the now opened wall and head down the ladder to 
find some sweet, sweet gold!  Head back up, and exit the Office.  

"Luke… luuuuke…"
Now, proceed to enter (or exit, as it were) the door that Luke is guarding.  
Ah, the great outdoors.  Feel free to examine and talk to the townsfolk.  Walk 
into the garden of turnips (as I like to call it) and get the treasure that is 
hidden in the upper left hand corner.  "This smell.. Oh man, this has to be 
salted fish.  I regret even looking in here…"  Why do I have a feeling that's 
not the last time you or I will hear that phrase in our lifetimes?  Seriously 
though, after you're done looking around, head into the door right next to the 
save spot, that will trigger the story progression (most of the other rooms 
are just chit-chat with people, but some of it's interesting).  Aika comes 
back from "doing her hair".  Funny, her door was locked… hmmm…. Head straight, 
and climb up the excessively long ladder.  Enjoy the sunset!  Then, enjoy the 
moonstone falling from the… moon.  Dad's going to give you the Purple 
Moonstone once you get downstairs, so now you can change your attack power 
into Ice!  Awwwwshum!  Well, head to the top of the windmill structure, and 
hop in your boat!  Actually, before you do, be sure to get the treasure that's 
across from the boat.  Now, set sail north!  

"ROCK U LIKE A HURRICANE!"
Ah beautiful Shrine Island.  Before you head into the dungeon, make sure you 
save your game.  Wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you in there without 
the luxury of a saved game, right?  Good then.  Head into the dungeon and up 
to the top, then go through the door.  You'll find a crystal shaped object.  
Examine it and it will alter the shrine so that you can go back down to the 
bottom and get into a new door.  Well, go back to the bottom floor and enter 
the hall.  Basically the path is pretty straightforward.  Follow it, involving 
yourself in whatever battles you may come across, until you come to a dead end 
with a door on your right side.  Open it up and drrrrrain the water out!  
You're now in the center room again!  Go in the second door from the stairs 
and follow the path to the treasure to collect your first Moon Berry!  Yes!!  
Head back to the middle room and then make your way back up stairs.  Go in the 
first door on your right that you can reach.  You'll find yourself outside.  
Climb down the ladder and head into the door straight ahead.  Now you're on 
the other side of the middle room.  Collect the "Sacres Crystal" from the box 
in front of you, and head into the door to the right.  Follow the path forward 
and SAVE BEFORE YOU OPEN THE DOOR!  THERE IS A BOSS FIGHTING COMING UP AND 
THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO SAVE BEFORE IT!  There, now after saving open the 
door and let the water drain.  Ah, at long last you have the crystal, but it's 
never that easy.  Prepare to fight the rock boss.  He's fairly easy, but don't 
underestimate him!

"Rock is dead"
Difficulty of battle:  6/10 (This can vary depending on the magic spells 
you've learned)
Enemies:  1 (rockman!)
Allies: 1
Strategy:  Just wail on him!  I found that using the ice spell, Crystallis, 
works very well on him.  You just want to keep chipping away at him.  Use 
Special Moves if you have to (both characters specials will do nice damage to 
him).  When you have to be careful is when you see him "Scanning for targets" 
because that means the next round he is going to unleash his laser cannon, 
which can take up to 400 hit points off of either one of your characters.  So 
just be aware of it and hope that you have plenty of healing items.  His 
regular hits, which he uses most of the time, only take about 100-150 hit 
points off, so it's not too bad.  Again, he's not too tough, but don't take 
anything for granted!

"Despite all my rage…"
You'll collect the crystal and all is well…. Actually, not.  Back home, the 
Armada is attacking your home!  We are then introduced to Lord Galcian, who is 
the one commanding the attack.  After the brief cut scene, it's back to your 
current position with Vyse.  Head down the bridge and there should be a save 
point at the end.  Save if you want, or if you live on the edge just continue 
on without saving!    Or you can save when you're flying the skies of arcadia.  
Anyways, head south from the Shrine Island to return to your home.
Once you're back at your village, witness the destruction…. Then head down 
back into the secret underground cave (located on the path near the save 
point).  Talk to anyone you want down there, and then head back up to where 
your ship docked (the windmill village, I'll call it).  Now, once again, time 
to head north!  Actually, it's more northeast that you end up heading, but no 
matter!  Soon you come across a thick fog and Rhakam (arcwhale) stops you in 
your path and you're saved by Drachma, the "crusty… I mean rusty" old man.  He 
asks you to go get the boxes, so head down one floor below and there should be 
2 boxes with a hand grasping a fish (?).  Bring those up to him and he talks 
about his life etc etc.  Eventually, he joins your party!  Wooooo all right!  
Now, head straight though the air born cavern to Sailors Island.

"We work hard, we play hard"
Once you get to Sailors Island, Drachma leaves your party.  Oh well.  Head 
straight, and to your right should be a door, go inside and buy the map from 
the guy inside.  Also, right before the stairway, go to your right and you 
should find a treasure chest off to the side.  Then, head across the bridge 
and enter the second store on the right and the man will tell you about an 
"amazing cannon!" in Valua that Drachma might be interested in.  Well, now he 
has justification to take you there.  Before you go back to the bar and 
convince him, head up the stairs and go off to the right across the wooden 
bridge.  Climb up to the top and look out the window.  Someone is crying for 
help and they're doing it through a message in a bottle.  Make sure you 
collect that, and then head back down.  Cross back over the wooden bridge and 
enter the door that's straight ahead.  Talk to the midget (little person!  
Little person!) and he'll make a deal with you.  Go to the shop across from 
where you made the deal with that guy and head upstairs.  The second room has 
a chest with 200G in it.  Anyways, head back down and save if you want, but 
more importantly head over to the bar where Drachma is boozing it up.  After 
some coaxing, he joins your party and agrees to take you to Valua.  Now, head 
over to the guild masters shop and make a deal with Nasr Merchant.  Time for 
another quest.  Time to escort the old man home, so head east.  Eventually, 
you'll run into the black pirate ship.  Boss time!!

"I am a big man yes and I have a big gun…"
Difficulty:  6/10
Enemies:  1 ship
Allies:  1 ship
Strategy:  Fire your cannons with Vyse, Focus with the other two.  Eventually, 
he'll try to maneuver behind you, make sure you maneuver behind him as well, 
and then use your standard cannon with Vyse and your other cannons with 
Drachma.  It's a pretty easy battle; don't forget to use your repair kit if 
the black pirates are taking your energy down.  Easy battle!!

"And I pray beggin' to the northern star"
Head back to Sailors Island and head North from there.  You'll come across a 
small island and your compass will start spinning.  You've found a secret!  
Push "A" against it and it will serve as a map.  Head North for the Valuan 
Empire.  After the cut scene, head down towards where Marco is found.  You get 
into an argument with him and he says you'll be sorry and so on.  Get on the 
elevator and head down to the inn and pay the 80 bucks to spend the night.  
After the conversation with Drachma, that little bum Marco was spying on you!  
Chase him down by taking the straight routes (just follow the arrows).  After 
another cut scene, it's time to head down into the sewers and break into the 
coliseum.For the most part, the sewers are pretty straightforward.  Just 
follow the paths.  But, when you get onto the blue gravel (away from the 
sewage) there is a part where you can go straight, or turn left.  Go left 
first to get some treasure.  Then, after that, head back on that straight path 
and there will be another two-way decision.  This time, head straight first to 
collect treasure, then head back to the left path to continue on.  Head 
straight across the bridge-like thing, and save your game at the end.  Then 
it's boss time!!

"Whoa, slow down tubby you're not on the moon yet"
Difficulty: 4/10
Enemies:  1 Blob
Allies:  2
Strategy:  What strategy??  This guy is easy to beat!  Just use Vyse's Cutlass 
fury over and over and attack normally with the other two.  Watch out for his 
Vile special, and heal when needed.  Easy!!

Head up the stairs and… another boss fight!  Damn!

"Tell my mom I won't be back…"
Difficulty:  7/10
Enemies:  3
Allies:  2
Strategy:  The way I won this battle is by taking out the two helpers first, 
then concentrating on the executioner.  Just do normal attacks on the two 
helpers with each character, and then against the executioner use Vyse's 
Cutlass Fury but more importantly use Drachmas Tackle, it will take away 400+ 
hit points from the executioner.  Be careful, though, the Executioner has a 
Tackle move of his own that can take as much as 1,000 hit points away.  Just 
be careful and play smart, it's not too hard of a battle.  I was at Level 10 
with Vyse for this battle, you should be too.

Get the two treasure chest contents before heading down the blue marble path 
again.  Then, just follow the path.  Once you get to the Upper-City, save your 
game.  Then head for the train.  After another cut scene, you have to run from 
Galcian, so get going.  Eventually you'll reach the front car and guess what?  
Another boss battle.

"god save the queen"
Difficulty:  8/10
Enemies:  2
Allies:  1
Strategy:  This battle is kind of tough, just because the Electris Special 
they use will get both Vyse and Aika.  What I did was attack with Vyse's 
Cutlass Fury and Aika's first Special.  If you don't have enough spirit 
points, just do normal attacks.  Heal when necessary, and that's where it gets 
tricky.  Sometimes those guys will heal each other and it's just a sea saw 
battle back and forth.  The key point is to try to get one of the guys out of 
the battle.  Two Vs. One is a lot easier than Two Vs. Two, so concentrate all 
of your attacks on one of the guys, you can take care of the other one later.

After a dramatic rescue by Dracham, you head back to the village a folk hero!  
Head down to the secret underground base and you will discover that Cupil can 
sense if there are moon stone chards on the ground, which he eats.  A Jump Pak 
is a MUST for this game!  If you don't have one, I recommend buying the 
Performance Pak.  It's only $10 and it rumbles about 4 times as much as the 
Sega Brand Jump Pak.  Anyways, search the floor for the chard and pick it up.  
Head to the bottom and board the ship for take off to help Fina find the 
moonstones.  You're going to be heading East towards Nasr on your next 
journey.  

"According to the map, we've only gone about 4 inches since we left."
They say go east, but really you go north, and then you go east.  Remember 
where you escorted that guy to his home town?  That's where you're headed.  
When you get to the rock clusters, just keep pushing 'A' to bust through to 
the other side.  Head over to the Temple on your left side and attempt to land 
there.  You've found where the Crystal is, but Drachma wants to head into town 
first.  On your way there, you encounter another one of the black pirates.

"As black as the night can get"
Difficulty:  5/10
Enemies:  1 (ship)
Allies: 1 (ship)
Strategy:  Basically the same strategy for every other airship battle.  Use 
Guard with at least one of the characters, fire with the other two, and focus 
with the last character.  It's not that tough of a battle, so just beat them 
down.

"How can you just leave me standing, alone in a world that's so…"
That pig Drachma ditches you once you get over to the town.  So now, you've 
got to find someone to take you over to the Temple!  Just search around the 
city talking to people and whatever, then get on one of those Dhabu and head 
over to the "other" part of the city.  Search both complexes and talk to the 
dancer.  Eventually she'll offer to take you over to the temple.  Then, head 
down the ladder inside the well and follow the path to eventually collect a 
moonberry.  Head back down and back across to the first part of the town.  
Remember where you saw the first Dhabu and your Jum Pak + VMU were going 
crazy?  Head back over there and enter the building.  Now head upstairs and go 
outside and you'll find another Cham, you'll also find some magic droplets.  
Now, head back down and get a good nights rest.  When you wake up, go to the 
docks and then set sail East to the Temple.

"walk like an Egyptian…"
Once inside the temple, head straight.  When you get to the part where there 
are 2 pillars to roll on, roll to the other side and use the other pillar.  
Stop it in the middle and run to the end of the hall to collect 527 gold 
pieces, then head back on your straight path.  Follow the pretty 
straightforward ledges, and you'll come to a corridor where rolling boulders 
keep falling from the ceiling.  Wait until right after one drops and run down, 
but watch out cause you're going to have to make a right (Vyse's left) very 
quickly into a safe hole of sorts.  Head up the tunnel from there to find 
another treasure cheat, this time with an Ancient Robe in it.  Head back down 
the path to where the boulders were and continue down straight once the 
boulder passes.  You'll come into a room with 3 moveable cylinders.  It should 
be like this.  The cylinder in the middle should be the last one you move.  
The one to the left of you should go straight ahead into the first hole.  The 
one on the right side should go straight ahead into the second hole, and the 
middle one should go straight ahead into the first hole.  Easy enough.  When 
you get through, there is going to be a confusing maze of sorts.  Just head to 
the straightaway doorway to eventually find your way through, or you can go 
collect treasure with the alternate routes.  Now, solve the easy puzzle (red 
cylinders in red spaces, blue in blue) and head through the now open door.  Be 
careful, though, rocks are going to start falling!  Run straight ahead and get 
ready to veer off to the left (Vyse's right) and there should be a Cham there.  
Then head back down.  It's basically straight ahead from here, just follow the 
path.  You'll eventually get to a room where you can turn water on to come out 
of the walls.  Remember that cause you'll use it in just a little while.  
Anyways, head up the stairs and head to the other side.  A little side note, I 
opened every chest throughout the level, despite the fact that you have to 
face those 3 rock queers everytime.  Just use Vyse's Cutlass on them, and 
watch out for when they "tremble" because their next move is going to be a 
volcano which takes off a decent amount of energy.  Anyways, head on and 
you'll come into a room with a bunch of those wheel balances and holes in the 
ground.  It's not TOO confusing here, just put the balances in their place.  
Now, head back to where that water thing was and turn it on.  Head across the 
way and save your game.

Go through the door right by the save point and you should be in a room full 
of molton lava.  Guess what?  Another boss fight.  

"I em the lash dragun!  (sean connery voice)"
Difficulty:  8/10
Enemies:  1
Allies:  2
Strategy:  Man, this guy is a real ass farmer.  Basically, make sure everyone 
in your party has the ice spell crystallis and crystallis 2, cause those do 
the most damage to him.  Where this guy becomes dangerous is his Cinder Storm 
spell because it turns your party member into stone.  Not only that, but his 
Volcanic Blast takes off 500+ hitpoints per character!  Just be careful, heal 
when needed and use lots of ice spells.

"Listen all y'all it's a sabotage…"
Head forward to collect your sweet, sweet reward, the red moon crystal!!  Exit 
the temple and you'll meet Bellena.  You know, I'm at the screen where she 
says "Um, can I take a look at it…".  Now I haven't progressed passed that 
line, but I'll be you $100 she's working for Valua.  Let's see if she is….  
HAHA!  I was right!  I knew it!  Wow, the real bellena looks like that chick 
from Suddenly Susan.  Ohhhh man…

"You must die, I alone am best!"

Difficutly:  5/10
Enemies:  1
Allies:  1 (ship)
Strategy:  This guy is an ass.  What you want to do is hit him with as much 
firepower as you can in the rounds before he fires his red laser beam.  I 
ended up using the Cannon on him, and then it led to Vyse and the others to go 
after Bellenas ship instead.  Not too tough…

"Oh no, another day, oh yeah what a waste"
 
Difficulty:  8/10
Enemies:  1
Allies:  1
Strategy:  In the first round, she will use a spell to strengthen herself.  
You can use this opportunity to either get ahead of her in HP's (which I don't 
recommend) or to powerup yourself.  I say use powerup, it will win you the 
round quicker.  Anyways, just assault her and make sure you have enough Spirit 
Points ready for when you can use the cannon.  Her ice spell is devastating, 
but just use Aikas healing spell and you should be all right.  She can be 
tough though, so just play smart. 

"Time to take a ride, it leaves today…"
After that battle is over, it's time to head North for the Green Moonstone.  
The tricky part is the fact that winds blow you back, and lots of random 
battles will ensue.  Just keep with it and you'll eventually make it to the 
area you're supposed to be in.  To the right (east) will be where you need to 
dock the ship.  Seems as though all the natives are asses to you!  Anyways, 
search the grounds, getting any chests that are around as well as talking to 
the natives, and you will eventually come across the Elders hut.  Talk to him, 
and he gives you his blessing to head West and save the king.  Don't forget to 
find some Fuel for your ship.  Head back onto your ship and head North again.  
Get ready for a boss fight!

"It tastes like…. Burning"
Difficulty:  7/10
Enemies:  1 ship
Allies:  1
Strategy:  This guy is kinda tough.  Just make sure to guard when the block 
above is red, because his flame attack takes away massive energy.  Keep 
chipping away at him and MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPIRIT POINTS TO USE YOUR 
CANNON SHOULD THE OPPORTUNITY ARISE!  Pretty simple fight eh!

"All that glitters is Gold"
Fly north from the battle to a little island to discover… GOLDEN MAN!  Yes, 
that's right, when your compass starts going nuts push 'A" on the piece of 
land and you'll discover it.  Then, head to the little tree mini-island to 
your right and talk to the King.  He'll tell you to go South.  Don't forget to 
get the Cham inside his hut! 

"Dig Dug!"
Head South and into Moonstone Mtn.  Once inside (after the cutscenes) it's 
trap/maze time.  Head straight up and to the left.  Then there will be 3 
blocks on the ground, to get through run over the box marked X, and not the 
Circle box.  Next head straight, then to the left, then another left.  More 
box puzzles!  Just walk on all the X's to get through.  When you get up to the 
fork in the road, use the far left path to make it across.  Once you're in the 
big room with lots of drops, look for the one on the far left and drop down.  
You can drop down the other ones to find treasures and what not, but this is 
the way to go to progress through the level.  Make sure to enter all doors 
along the way as they contain treasure and two NPC's for you to talk to.  
Eventually you'll end up fighting…. Antonio 2!?!!!!  He's back to avenge his 
brothers death…

"Maybe that's why we beat them in football nearly half the time."
Difficutly:  5/10
Enemies: 1
Allies: 3
Strategy:  Not much strategy.  You can use Ice on him if you want, but really 
just attack him with Super Moves and heal when needed.  The only thing that 
can threaten you is his electric attack that hurts more than one person, but 
if you don't let their life bar go down too low it wont be a problem.  

"No one else can do for you like you"
Now, head out the door and head over to the kings hideout (the tree).  Talk to 
him and Isapa will tell you the riddle behind the golden bird and man.  This 
is the tricky part.  The man is easy enough to find, its right next to the 
tree house (to your left, remember I wrote about it earlier?) but the bird is 
harder to find.  Head towards the lake with the double water fall, the bird 
should b e located on the ground next to the lake.  So just circle around the 
ground around the lake and keep pressing A, you'll find it sooner or later… I 
did.  Now, to find Rixis!  Head NorthWest and you should see a small, grey 
rock on the bottom of one of the mountains.  Yeeeeeah that's the gates of 
rixis.
