advice
for the journey
ALL JOURNEYS BEGIN WITH A PATH
| The land is quite large and you can wander across |
| it. However, it is very easy to get lost, so stick to |
| the roads in the beginning to keep your bearings. |
| Roads always lead to some destination, so you will |
| progress just fine in the beginning if you stick |
| to them. Also, sometimes it is helpful to climb to |
| a high vantage point and look out over the land |
| to see where you want to go. In addition, if you |
| see a village or a house, there is bound to be |
| something interesting awaiting inside to whet |
Madame Fawn | your appetite for adventure! |
THE MERCHANT GATHERING DEMON FANGS
There is a person who is looking to collect the Demon Fangs you
find on your journey. If you take Demon Fangs to him, he will be so happy that he is bound to give you a reward based
on the number of fangs you give him. You should collect as many Demon Fangs as possible for the time when you run into this collector.
DIVINE SPRINGS
There are mysterious holes within which lies who knows what.
From these holes the water of Divine Springs bubbles up. When people draw near one of these Divine Springs, they always feel a need to toss money inside. Whatever amount of money you decide to put in is lost forever in the depths, but at some point in the future something good just might happen.

AS DIFFERENT AS NIGHT AND DAY
Time passes as you adventure around. The tasks that people carry out change with the time of day, so if you stop by the same location later, who knows what you might discover.
KEEP PEOPLE TALKING
If you are ever having trouble solving a problem on your journey, try talking
to the different people you come across. One of them may hold the key. People are not always forthcoming with all of the information, and sometimes it takes a couple of conversations to draw the information you need out of someone. After talking enough, it may provide you with just the clue you needed to continue
your adventure.
•When people have more to say, a special mark appears above their head. If you are ever having trouble solving something, try talking to people with these marks.
