Walkthourgh -Chapter 9: Truth-

Doraat
---------------------------------

Required Party: Hero, Lyon, Zerase
Suggested Level: 40
Enemies: Godwin Soldier (Bow), Godwin Soldier (Sword)
Bosses: Alenia, Godwin Soldierx5 (Sword)
Items: Quad Tactic, Window Set 6, Pale Moon Casque, Blue Gate Piece, Crane Wing Tactic, Flame Ring, Guardian Chain, Blinking Rune Piece, Triple Harmony Epic
You first need to get into Doraat, and so you must fight your way.
---------------------------------
War Battle 6: -Doraat Siege-
Rewards: (Victory+) 18,000 Potch, Guardian Scarf
Battle Goal: Get [Hero] to Doraat.
Defeat Conditions: Hero or the Dahak are destroyed.
Foes: Archerx2 (HP:200), Infantry (HP:200), Spearx2 (HP:200), ArcShip x2 (HP:300), Ram (HP:300), ComShip(HP:300), Alenia (HP:300)


This will be a somewhat difficult battle. There are many enemies, and your goal is not to kill them all, rather to get your Hero into the path of Doraat itself. Make sure you save the Dawn Rune until you are close to Doraat so that you can push back any enemies that surround your Hero's unit. Also, give the Hero as many Charges as you can, so that he can reduce the damage he takes in case someone attacks him. Lastly, and most importantly, have your ground
troops STAY AWAY FROM THE WATER! The ships around Doratt will fire at you on the land if you get too close to them.


Like the batle in Lelcar, this battle takes place in both Land and Sea. Also like the battle in Lelcar, you can completely ignore the sea battle if you so desire, but it is not reccomended. After a few rounds, a short scene plays. One group of Archers guarding Doraat is destroyed, so you get a free 200 deaths.Keep your party together, but keep them all to the north somewhat, while your Hero's group is to the south. The goal is to draw the troops away from Doraat, so if you can do that you're good. This is sometimes difficult though, so you may just have to charge in there with your Hero and have a few backup characters and hope for the best. Just remember that you have the Dawn Rune and it will clear a nice path for you when you need to enter Doraat. As you actually enter Doraat, Alenia uses a last ditch attack to try and get you away, but it does not work. Continue the battle as you were normally.
---------------------------------
The journey through Doratt is going to be rather rough. Bring your best party members along with plenty of medicines to keep yourself alive. Also bringing a character like Murad to heal you after battle will help considerably.
Note: There are a lot of items in Doraat. . .But getting them now is a pain in the ass because of the large amount of random encounters. If you don't want to get them, you should come back later (after the events here) to obtain
them, as some are rather good.


Head through the door to the southeast (its somewhat hidden). Follow the long path east, southeast, and up the stairs here for the QUAD TACTIC. Continue east and follow the path all the way (its ~very~ long) for the WINDOW SET 6.
Now head All the way back to where your allies are waiting (another long walk . Once you reach them, head through the northeastern door and follow the path through the town. There are two chests to the far northwest, which contain a PALE MOON CASQUE and a rare BLUE GATE PIECE. At the very far south of this area (near the water) you'll find another chest containing the CRANE WING TACTIC. Northeast of this you'll find a FLAME RING. Head back north and enter the large building, which seems to be the Lord's manor (AKA the Fortress)
Watch a scene in here.
---------------------------------
Boss: Alenia, Godwin Soldierx5 (Sword)
Rewards: Red Ribbon, ?Painting


Like most battles, there are many foes in this. You also must deal with Alenia, who wields the powerful Twilight Rune. The main difficulty with the Twilight Rune are the status effects that it can cause. Have your Hero ready to cast his "Time of Wakening" whenever necessary.Like always, cast as many area-of-effect spells as possible on the first round. This should hopefully kill all, or most of, the Godwin Soldiers around Alenia. Their combined damage will be what kills you, rather than Alenia herself.


Note that Alenia is strong versus magic though, so after killing off the Godwin soldiers you may have to rely on physical attacks to kill her. Fire magic and the Dawn Rune are the only magics that seem to work well on her. . .
Fortunately, Alenia does not have any particular resistence to physical attacks, so that should be the best way to take her down.
---------------------------------
Watch a short scene. When you regain control, head through the western door. Head south, and enter the door just south of the stairs. There's a chest in here that contains a GUARDIAN CHAIN. Head back to the main room (where you fought Alenia) and head through the eastern door. There is a door hidden to the north of the stairs (hard to see) but if you go through it, there are two chests. Open them for a BLINKING RUNE PIECE and the TRIPLE HARMONY EPIC. Head upstairs here, and follow the path back downstairs. Approach the door for a scene

---------------------------------------
Duel 5: Loyalty -Hero vs Miakis-
Attack: Okay...Here I come.
Attack: Ow, ow! Now it's my turn!
Attack: Hey that really hurt, now you're going to get the same!
Attack: No! I wont give up yet!
Special: Prince, can you handle this one?
Special: Ouch that hurt, I'll get you this time!
Special: Time for you to go beddy-bye!
Special: Now I'm going to get really serious!
Defense: Ow ow, you've really got your eyes open prince!
Defense: Hey that really hurt, are you trying to make me cry?
Defense: All right prince, show me how good you've gotten
Defense: I guess I've got to be a little more careful too.


Miakis is a rather predictable enemy in the Duel, and she does not have any particular pattern of attack. She is rather balanced, so just make sure to watch her carefully.
---------------------------------------
Watch a scene.
Note: If you have Jeane at this point, there is a special scene you will see with she and Zerase. It is. . .rather interesting.
Another Note: Once you finish all the events surrounding Doratt, you can teleport back there and exit. There is a DoReMi Elf wandering around outside the walls.
---------------------------------
Headquarters
---------------------------------

Required Party: Hero, Lyon, Miakis
Shops: Depending on characters you have recruited.
Characters: Miakis
You automatically return to Headquarters. Miakis joins you as a Star of Destiny. Now head upstairs to the top level of the castle (4F) and speak with Zerase in the Sealed Room. Watch a scene. Head back downstairs and speak with Georg. Watch the scenes. Now we need to go recruiting again.
---------------------------------

Recruitment
---------------------------------

Characters: Levi, Bergen, Norma, Ernst, Gavaya, Raven
Note: If you never recruited Wilhelm and Mueller before, this will be your
VERY last chance to recruit them, so make sure that when you speak with them, bring Viki. They are in Doraat.
Also, if you missed your armorer, Mohsen, you can recruit him in Doraat as
well, as long as you buy 100,000 Potch worth of items from him.
--------------------------------
Character: Levi
Location: The "Big Hole"
Prerequisite: Having spoke with him once before
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit:
Head to the "Big Hole" northwest of Rainwall and speak with Levi. You'll need
to have spoken with him before to get him to join. He will join you
automatically after the battle with Doraat if you speak with him.
--------------------------------
Bergen joins along with Levi.
--------------------------------
--------------------------------
Character: Norma
Location: Raftfleet
Prerequisite: Having recruited Levi, and having seen the scene with Norma and
Ernst in Stormfirst at the very beginning of the game.
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit: First, and most important, you need to have spoken with Norma at the beginning of the game, during the Sacred games at Stormfist. When you're about to leave Stormfist, she will ask you if you know a great Mage, and you can say you only know some Queen's Knights, but she thanks you for the gesture. She then leaves. After taking Doraat, you'll find Norma in Raftfleet. Head to the Inn, and enter one of the two rooms, where you'll find Norma. Ask her to join you, and then come back with Levi in your party. After the scenes take Norma and Ernst to your castle and they will join you permanently.
--------------------------------
Ernst joins along with Norma.
--------------------------------
Character: Gavaya
Location: Raftfleet
Prerequisite: Norma, Faylen, Viki
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit: Bring Norma, Faylen, and Viki to speak with Gavaya in Raftfleet. With all three in your party, watch a scene. Gavaya is near the Inn, and where Oboro's ship is/was. He joins you automatically.
--------------------------------
Character: Raven
Location: Sable/Headquarters
Prerequisite: Oboro, Egbert, Taylor, and Marina
Time to Recruit: After taking Doraat.
How to Recruit: Head to Sable and speak with the Lord, Solis, to hear of his problems. Head
back to Headquarters and speak with Oboro. Choose to try and catch him again. Now, go speak with Egbert (he's in the Inn) and he gives you the Family Tree Chart. Head back and speak with Oboro. Watch the scene. Go to the Inn (at the Headquarters) and spend the night. Watch another scene, and now you must find "Crow". Watch the scenes, and "Crow" is introduced as
Raven. Choose to keep him in jail. After the scenes, head down to the empty room beneath the Inn (it's near "Lelcar") and speak with Raven. Ask him to join you, and after a scene he will.
--------------------------------
Headquarters
--------------------------------
Required Party: Hero, Lyon
Shops: Depending on characters you have recruited.
When you're ready to continue on with the game, go to the War Room. Now you must select three parties, one with Roy and Zerase, one with Kyle, and one with the Hero, Miakis, Sialeeds, and Lyon. The Roy and Zerase party will be the easiest party, since Zerase is a naturally overpowered character, so you do not need to send your strongest characters to this party. Send a few strong characters with your hero though, since his battle will be rather rough. Kyle will probably have the hardest battle of the three parties, so you should send most of your strongest characters with him.

You won't need more then one more mage in Roy's group, so send them all with the Hero and Kyle. In the Hero's battle, magic will not be too useful, since the boss is very much a tank-like character. So send your mages with Kyle and your physical attackers with the Hero. Watch the scenes (speaking to Kyle during the interlude gives you a. . .rather entertaining view of Sialeeds.)
--------------------------------
The Queen's Campaign
--------------------------------
War Battle 7: -New Queen's Campaign-
Rewards: (Victory+) 20,000 Potch, Spun Silver Armor
Battle Goal: Get Roy's unit to Lymsleia's position.
Defeat Conditions: Roy's unit is destroyed.
Foes: Archerx2 (HP:200), Cavalryx3 (HP:200), Spearx2 (HP:200), Zahhak(HP:300), Alenia (HP:300), Lymsleia (HP:300)

Rather then your Hero's unit, Roy's unit will be the one playing the key rolein this battle. Once again, the goal is not too destroy the enemies, but toget Roy up to Lym and the Knights. What you should do is have everyone butone or two units (Roy's and another for backup) head north while Roy stays somewhat south or in the middle area. Once all of the enemies charge your main force, then Roy needs to make a run right through the center to the Queen. This battle is quite easy compared to some of the previous battles, but note that you will need to get your hands dirty this time. Fortunately, pretty much every enemy drops a goody, and you will WANT to kill the foes here, as you get rare items like Guardian Gloves, Rage Pieces, Mother Earth Pieces, and
so on. The battle ends once Roy gets within atack range of Zahhak and Alenia.
--------------------------------
Watch the scene. You are thrust into three consecutive boss battles, which characters depending on whom you chose in the earlier scene with Lucretia.
--------------------------------
Boss: Alenia, Elite Soldierx3 (Sword), Elite Soldierx2 (Bow)
Because of the ever-so-powerful (overpowered) Zerase, this battle is exceedingly easy. Normally, I tend not to use her because she is soover powered, but because she is a required member in this battle, you willhave no problem. Use Zerase's Meteor Shower for the first few rounds to take down nearly.

Note that Alenia is quite a bit more dangerous this time, and will dodge/counter most every physical attack you do to her. So you'll need strong magic spells to actually damage her effectively. Unfortunately, she takes around half damage from magical attacks this time, as well. She is quite a tank. She also uses Fire Magic this time around, which is not the most dangerous, unless you have a lot of low levelled characters in this battle party. If this is true, the key to winning is keeping Zerase alive. Having two or three mages will help considerably as well.
--------------------------------
Watch a short scene and the battle changes to Kyle.
--------------------------------
Boss: Zahhak, Elite Soldierx3 (Sword), Elite Soldierx2 (Bow)

Like Alenia, Zahhak will dodge and counter most physical attacks, so you'll need to get rid of him with magic. Also like Alenia, he is a serious brute and takes little damage from magic, and normal damage from physical atacks, so you have the worst of both worlds to deal with. I suggest physical attacks, or level 4 spells, since anything less then a level 4 spell will barely dent Zahhak.

Of the three battles in the Queen's Campaign, this is probably going to be the hardest, because you have no overpowered characters to back you up. Slaughter all of the foes with area spells (Wind, Lightning, and Fire) on the first round so that you take less damage. Hopefully you have around 3 mages with you, so that you will be able to minimize the amount of damage you take on
this first round. If this party is not strong, expect a few deaths.
--------------------------------
The scene changes to the Hero.
--------------------------------
Boss: Galleon, Elite Soldierx5 (Sword)
Rewards: Rage Sword Orb

Depending on how you played, this battle will either be quite easy, or a pain in the butt. Because most of your party is chosen for you, you are rather stuck with your choice and battle strategy. Hopefully you were able to get Miakis at least a Killer Rune or a Magic Drain Rune (if not a Killer), to improve her usefulness before this battle, as well as sharpen her weapons. Quite simply, Galleon is a tank. He takes very little damage from physical and magical attacks. He also has his Elite Soldier's to back him up, so you'll need to get rid of them with area attacks before anything else. When it is just Galleon, you will need to decide what your strongest attacks are
and pummel him with them. Expect this battle to last some time, since Galleon has high HP along with the defense and magical defense. Also, if you have not spent the time recruiting every character and getting the best gear possible, you may need to resort to physical attacks near the end of the battle and hope for the best.
--------------------------------
Watch the scene. Sialeeds and Lyon leave your party.
--------------------------------
Headquarters
--------------------------------
Required Party: Hero, Miakis
Shops: Depending on characters you have recruited.
Characters: Galleon

Watch the scenes. Head to your room and watch a scene (one of the best in the game!) with Galleon, Kyle, and Miakis. When you regain control, head downstairs and enter the Infirmary. Watch a scene. Note that for some time Miakis will be running around behind you instead of Lyon. Fortunately, Miakis is excellent in battle, and can be used as a physical attacker or a mage.
Head back up to 4F and speak with Zerase in the Sealed Room. Zweig and Lorelai are required members of your party at this point. Head back to the War Room and speak with Lucretia. Exit and watch another scene.

Now, if you noticed, Viki will not allow you to teleport out of the castle. So exit to the outer edge, and act as if you were going to walk out. Watch a scene with Galleon. Ask him to join, and he joins you as a Star of Destiny. After all of the scenes, we need to go recruiting again.
--------------------------------
Recruitment
--------------------------------
Characters: Haswar, Isato, Urda, Eresh (Maybe), Hazuki, Cathari
Note: If you haven't been speaking with Oboro, and have not recruited him at this point, you have permanently missed him.
--------------------------------
Character: Haswar
Location: Lunas
Prerequisite: Takamu
Time to Recruit: After the Queen's Campaign.
How to Recruit: With Takamu in your party, head to Lunas. After recruiting Zegai you'll originally have your first chance to speak with Isato and Urda. Urda will lead you to Lunas and after the Queen's Campaign, head into the Oracle's Conclave in Lunas with Urda and watch a scene with Haswar and Isato. Haswar asks to come with you, so accept.

Now you need to bring Isato and co. out of Lunas through the secret path. Note that you do not need Takamu in your party any longer. Near the exit, all three join you permanently. Head back to the castle where they leave your party.
--------------------------------
Isato joins along with Haswar.
--------------------------------
Urda joins along with Isato and Haswar.
--------------------------------
Character: Eresh
Location: The "Big Hole," Sindar Ruins
Prerequisite: Jeane
Time to Recruit: After the Queen's Campaign.
Note: Eresh and another character share the same Star of Destiny. If you get Eresh you will be unable to obtain this "other" character, who I will not spoil. Let's just say he is rather...entertaining. This character joins as the final character in the game, but only if you do not have Eresh.
How to Recruit: After the Queen's Campaign ends, you'll find a note in your comment box from
Jeane. She teases you and tells you about a surprise in the ruins she took you to. Head towards the far end of the area before the Sindar Ruins and you'll meet Eresh. Ask her "Is there some way we could help?" and she will join your party.

Make your way back through Jeane's dungeon all the way to the very end where you saw the scene with Jeane (and she joined your party) for another short scene. Enter the newely opened tomb for a new dungeon. This will be VERY annoying, so come prepared, and with a lot of free inventory space. Follow the path until you reach an intersection. Head west and follow this
path until you reach a chest containing a DARK AMULET. Go back to the intersection and continue south. Head west again here and open the chest for a PALE GATE PIECE. Once again, head back to the intersection and continue south.

At the next intersection, head south to find a chest containing a VOICE SET 5. Go back to the intersection and head east. Follow this path until you reach a STONE OF MAGIC at the very end. Not head back a bit (until you had to turn)and examine the north wall. A secret door will open here. This is a new (even more annoying) area. Head north immediately and open the
chest at the end for a WINDSPUN RING. Head back to the intersection and go west until you reach another. Go north here and open the chest for a RESURRECTION PIECE. Head back to the intersection and go south until you reach (guess what?) another intersection. Open the chest to the west here for an IMMORTAL MEDICINE and continue south. Follow this path for some time until you reach another intersection. Go south and open the chest for a BLINKING
RUNE PIECE. Head back north and continue west and follow the path to the end. Press X at the wall for a new path to be revealed.

On this new screen again, follow the path until you reach an intersection. Take the north fork to obtain the OLD BOOK 4. Head back south and follow the rather long path until you reach another intersection. Head north here and you'll obtain a FOG ROBE from the chest. Head back to the intersection and go south. Soon, you'll reach (our good friend. . .) another intersection. Go
west here and open the chest for some ARMES ARMOR. Go back and continue south. Follow the path once again until you reach the intersection. Take the eastern path and open the chest here for a PROSPERITY HAT. Go back and take the northern fork. Press X at the wall to reveal a Save Point. I suggest usingit, that was some annoying dungeon . Head through the path to the north. When you enter this final room, a scene plays. Finally!
--------------------------------
Boss: Shepcesska
Rewards: Sacred Oath Epic, Cyclone Piece1, Mother Earth Piece1

I've actually heard of quite a few people having trouble with this boss, so don't come in unprepared. I have to admit, he is QUITE nasty. He uses Soaring Bolt on your entire party. Soaring Bolt is 900+ damage divided among all allies, so that means you'll probably take around 150+ for each member. Unless you have very high levels you'll want to have someone healing every round. I personally used Kyle with a Flowing and Magic Absorb Rune for this. The boss will cast this spell most every round, which is why he is particularly dangerous. When you don't know what you're in for he may actually slaughter you. Whats worse about the Soaring Bolt is that it stuns. if it stuns all of your healers, you might have a rough time. In my own opinion, he is, technically, harder than the final boss of the game. Though he is not really (probably. . .), he has a high damage capacity.

I suggest NOT using Silent Lake on this boss, as tempting as it might seem. Your characters will be silenced by this spell as well, and even with a good tank (Galleon with a Firefly Rune, for example, makes a good tank in this battle. You can't parry/dodge every attack this boss makes, its impossible) you will take 100 or more damage an attack. Because of this, it is highly risky to not be able to heal and be taking that much damage
--------------------------------
Eresh now joins your party. That was a lot of work! You still need to get out too. . .
Note: There is a mini-boss called Hellsteed you can find in this chamber. Fighting him is a bit difficult (he has strong area fire attacks, much like the boss we just faced) But if you can take him down you'll get a powerful Blood Scale Male, a Unicorn Orb (ew), a Boundary Piece1, 82,500 Potch, and 100Party SP.
--------------------------------
Character: Hazuki
Location: Port Spinacks
Prerequisite: Belcoot
Time to Recruit: After the Queen's Campaign.
How to Recruit: Take Logg's boat to Port Spinacks, walk over the loooooong bridge (its at the
far south) to reach the western side of Spinacks. Over here, you'll findHazuki. Speak to her -without- Belcoot in your party, and tell her that you know Belcoot. Come back to her with Belcoot in your party. After a short scene, Hazuki will join you.
--------------------------------
Character: Cathari
Location: Port Spinacks/Hershville
Time to Recruit: After the Queen's Campaign
How to Recruit: Take Logg's boat to Port Spinacks, and then find the man near the Save Orb.
Speak with him and he tells you about Hershville Naval Base. After learning about this, head back to your boat, and talk to him like youwant to go back to your base. This time, however, he asks you where you want to go. Answer Hershville Naval Base. You will find Cathari near the exit to Hershville Naval Base. She is in the yellow cloak. Speak with her, and she tells you she wants to meet an old friend. head back to Spinacks. In Spinacks you'll meet Cathari again (she's on the long bridge separating the sides of town.) Take her to Lucretia (you must choose to, or you will miss Cathari) in your Headquarters. After a short scene, Cathari will join you. Cathari is VERY easy to miss, so it is most reccomended you get her at your first chance.
--------------------------------
Hershville Naval Base
--------------------------------
Required Party: Hero, Miakis
Shops: Items, Armor, Runes, Physical Training, Magical Training,
Items: Intermediate Magic, Blinking Rune Piece, Voice Set 2, Thunder Piece
Characters: Cathari
Two items in this area are outside of the Administration building. The Intermediate Magic is especially nice. Two more items are found in the rooms on the top level of the Administration building, these are the VOICE SET 2 and a very rare THUNDER PIECE.
