Day 27

Game - Final Fantasy 4, Day 27
Hours Played/Hours Total - 2 hrs / 5 hrs
Starting Point - On the opposite side of Mount Hobs.
Current Goal - Make it to the Kingdom of Fabul before the Baron forces do. Defend Fabul and keep Golbez from getting the Wind Crystal.

What Happened - So far, I'm getting a lot of plot done per post, but I'm not getting a lot of hours. With this in mind, I figure I'll aim to make this one a stupid long post with a lot of hours in it. I'm going to warn you RIGHT NOW....this is going to be a hell of a long post.
     I started up right on the edge of Mount Hobs, but this time I was on the other side. From here, I traveled quite a ways to get to Fabul. I encountered many a monster, but none of them really posed any threat Especially when you have a full party of 5! Hell, I could do it with two of them. Anyways, a small journey later, I was knocking at the doors of Fabul. In Fabul, everybody I talked to directed Yang (and company) to talk to the King. So...I talked to the king! He was glad to see Yang okay, and Yang immediately relayed to him the details of the oncoming invasion. The King was unsure of whether to believe us, but after a little convincing by....everybody, he finally believed us. He did so just in time too! Because Baron's forces were already upon Fabul! Cecil, Edward, and Yang took the front lines to defend the castle. They left Rosa and Rydia to help out everyone with their white magic (I'm assuming). Onward to victory!...
     That's what I would have claimed, but it turns out the entirety of the battle was a pointless effort. Yeah, breaking the news fast and hard. The battle started in front of the castle with a small group of soldiers. They went down pretty easy, but more came to replace them so the group retreated. In the middle room, the group encountered two more groups of enemies (monsters this time), and they retreated back when reinforcements came. This happened two more times in both the room before the throne room AND in the throne room. Finally, we were kicked back into the crystal room itself (Good job guys!). In the crystal room, we met up with Rydia and Rosa (who were safe), but we also met up with another friend...Kain! However, something was very wrong with Kain, and he attacked Cecil. Cecil went down fast and easy since Kain seemed ridiculously powerful for some reason. With Cecil defeated, Kain proceeded to try and take the Wind Crystal. Rosa tried to stop him, but she was interrupted by...Golbez!
     Finally, I met the villain face to face. He instructed for Kain to stop disobeying and take the Crystal. He seemed to be controlling Kain's mind. Kain was going to grab the crystal, and both Yang and Edward tried to interfere. Golbez stopped them both quite easily though. After that, he realized that Rosa was connected to Kain's breaking in and out of mind control, so he grabbed her. After Kain got the crystal, he and Golbez left us there. With the crystal gone, our plan had turned to a complete failure. Rydia revived everybody with her magic, and the group rested for the night. The next day, they discussed the need of an airship to fight Golbez and rescue Rosa. Of course, it turns out that the only nation with airships is Baron. It was decided among the group that their next goal was to sneak into Baron. Cecil suggested a boat since that was their weak point. One would think that a nation of airships would be smart enough to have regular ships just in case, or at least be able to convert said airships to regular water ships. They did it in Final Fantasy 3! Why can't you do it 4? Eh? EH?...Back to the matter at hand, the group consults the King with their idea, and he gives the group a ship.
     After healing at the inn and restocking on items, I made my way to the port and began to sail for Baron. The open sea was calm and fine...Of course, something had to go wrong. As we were traveling along, all of a sudden Leviathan attacks! Rydia is knocked off the ship, and Yang chases after her. Everything is going bad, and then the ship is sucked into the whirlpool. The screen fades to black...and then comes back slowly. My view is Cecil alone on a beach. Cue the sad music...and it actually did play sad music. There was a town close nearby, so I made my way there. Unfortunately for me (and very much so for Cecil), the town was Mysidia. If you have forgotten and don't feel like scrolling down, it was the town from the very beginning of the game that Cecil and the Red Barons attacked. Everybody I talked to either had little to say or were appalled that I had came back. After talking to everybody outside, I proceeded inside the biggest building (all I had to go on) and talked to those inside. The mage inside question why I was there, and Cecil simply answered that he needed to get to Baron. The mage informed him that he wouldn't be able to defeat Golbez as a Dark Knight. He did suggest that Cecil look into changing his ways by climbing Mount Ordeals. If he successfully climbed it, he would be able to change his ways and become a paladin. Cecil didn't really feel he had the time to do this, but he realized he had no other choice. Upon agreeing to do this, the mage gave Cecil some help in the form of a pair of twin mages, Porom and Palom. They are twin children mages where Porom is a white mage and Palom is a black mage. With my new team assembled and a quick shopping trip, I was ready to face Mount Ordeals.
     First and foremost, Mount Ordeals is a terrible and simple name. Couldn't they have at least called it Mount of Ordeals, Holy Mountain, or something along that line? Just doesn't sound good...anyways. I traveled a decent distance from Mysidia to locate Mount Ordeals. I began my climb upward and onward, making great use of the twin mages. Most of the enemies weren't too much of a challenge. Dark Knight Cecil was able to handle most, while Palom's great spell selection easily handled the rest. Also nice having Porom as a white mage. Anyways, part way up the mountain, the group ran into Tellah. Woo! Tellah the Sage is back in the hoooouse (and party)! He was searching for the spell Meteor so that he could destroy Golbez. He felt a strange presence about the mountain and had come to investigate. We continued up the mountain until we encountered a strange being. It was foreshadowed in-game that we would be meeting him, but I didn't mention that part because I forgot the specific time it occurred...also kind of ruins any surprise the game could have. At the same time, it was kind of cool that this game did have decent plot bits like this where it showed what was happening elsewhere! Moving along. The strange being was some sort of crazy undead monster, but it was also BOSS BATTLE TIME!
     This boss battle consisted of TWO boss battles! The first round was the creature (known as Scarmiglionel) robed up while leading a group of red zombies. Some Fire spells and time later, they were defeated and so it seemed he was. However, he tricked all of us and sprang up from behind for BOSS BACK ATTACK! (I promise to not do that one again...soon.) He had taken on his true, undead form! The first battle wasn't too much of a challenge, and neither was the second battle. He did have an annoying attack that caused everybody's ATB meter to run silly slow (Slow Status), but apart from that, he couldn't do a whole lot. Palom's Fira spell plus two mages with Cure spells made this battle go fairly easily. Many slow rounds later, I had defeated the evil boss Scarmiglionel. Woo! Time to get me a Paladin!
     After the boss was defeated, I proceeded a small ways forward and into a strange stone that called out to the group. It called Cecil son (which he questioned), but then teleported him and the group to a strange place. Inside, Cecil was blessed into a paladin, but before he could fully gain it, he was forced to fight his old Dark Knight self. Boss Battle Time? It would have been if I knew how to do it. I'm pretty sure I made this mistake the last time I played Final Fantasy 4. You get into a battle as Paladin Cecil fighting Dark Knight Cecil. The point of this battle is to NOT fight, but if you do fight, you will slowly and eventually lose. You are supposed to just sit there and wait out the battle until you win. I made the mistake of fighting and losing, and I also didn't save beforehand! I got to re-fight Scarmiglionel's two forms just so I could make it back and not fight Dark Knight Cecil. I even looked up a guide to make sure I didn't screw it up this time. With the success of Cecil's light side over his dark side, he was blessed into a full paladin. Along with this blessing, he was reset to Level 1. Thankfully, Level 1 of Paladin Cecil is almost as powerful as whatever level of Dark Knight he was before the change. He also was able to level up crazy fast from the nearby enemies. Before I left the mountain, he was level 10 again. After leaving the mountain, it was time to head back to Mysidia.
     The trip back to Mysidia was quick and easy. I found a nearby Chocobo Forest and made it there fast and battle free on a chocobo! Once back, I purchased some new armor for Paladin Cecil. He was back to his former glory (of defense)! I then went and spoke with the Elder. He was surprised at not only my success but by the presence of the Mythgraven Blade I had and Sage Tellah's knowledge of Meteor. It seems that the sword (given to me by the mystery light being at Mount Ordeal's summit) was actually an ancient sword from a prophesy. The game then went to a fancy screenshot which slowly revealed the prophesy. It mentioned something of dragons and light plus the moon. I didn't write it down, and I completely forgot it. However, it seems that Cecil (surprise!) might be the chosen one to save the world. I realize the surprise was unnecessary because it would be kinda lame/funny if your group of heroes weren't destined to save the world. Can you imagine that? An RPG where you go through the entire game, but someone else does all the world saving while you just have a crazy adventure. I already like it! Back to the game! Another shocker to come is that Porom and Palom were only sent with me to spy on what I was doing. Gasp! How could Mysidia distrust the guy who caused their partial downfall? /end sarcasm.
     Anyways, Cecil and Tellah were both already determined to stop Galbez, and they needed to get an airship before anything else. The Elder opened up The Devil's Road to the group so they could make it to Baron. It was originally blocked off because of the entire Mysidia incident I've mentioned a couple of times now. With the path open to travel, it was time for me to head back to Baron. This time...it was personal! I also feel that it's time for me to wrap up this post and post it. I've had it borderline ready to go for like 3-4 days now, but I didn't want to post it with either too much material OR not enough material. Regardless of this, I saved nearby Mysidia and closed up shop for now.
   

Ending Point - Mysidia.
Current Party -

• Cecil - Level 10
• Porom - Level 17
• Palom - Level 17
• Tellah - Level 22

Goals Accomplished - Made it to Fabul. Successfully failed to defend Fabul (as per story elements). Got a ship to Baron, but then lost that ship to Leviathan. Made it to Mysidia and gained the mages Porom and Palom. Climbed Mount Ordeals. Met up with Tellah again. Defeated the evil being Scarmiglionel. Changed Cecil's ways and transformed him into a Paladin. Somehow got Tellah to remember all his spells including Meteor! Climbed back down off Mount Ordeals. Learned about the legend possibly surrounding Cecil and the sword he received.
Next Goals - Travel the Devil's Road to Baron. Obtain an airship to stop Golbez. Save the world.

Day 26

Game - Final Fantasy 4, Day 26
Hours Played/Hours Total - 2 hrs / 3 hrs
Starting Point - Underground Waterway B2.
Current Goal - Make it to the Kingdom of Damcyan. Retrieve the Sand Pearl* to heal Rosa.
     *Yeah, I found out I was saying it wrong. It's Sand Pearl, not Desert Pearl.

What Happened - Wowzers, there is a lot of plot going down in Final Fantasy 4. Insanely large amount of plot-ary. I'm going to try and avoid revealing too much, but there won't be much of a post if I don't. Since that is the case...I'll just add the following line below.
--WARNING! SPOILERS ABOUND!--
     I started back up in the Underground Waterway, and I continued forward to the exit. I was able to quickly race through the rest of the cavern. With two mages and a powerful dark knight, there was very little trouble that came my way. I even got a new set of armor and weapon for Cecil! It took around 20-30 minutes to finish up this dungeon. Most of this was backtracking time where I tried to get all of the treasure chests I could see. I eventually gave up on one of them because I had no idea how to get it. When I finally made it near the exit, Tellah informed me we were closing in on the monster he had mentioned previously. It turns out that the exit was guarded/covered by a monstrous giant squid called  Octomammoth. BOSS BATTLE TIME! Octomammoth wasn't too much of a challenge unfortunately. I threw part of what I had at him, and he most easily went down. It took some time, but he didn't seem able to deal out any real damage. The most interesting bit of this battle was that at the beginning. His head was up plus tentacles all around him, but as I brought his HP down, he slowly lost tentacle after tentacle until they were all gone. Of course, he was also dead at that point. With Octomammoth out of the way, I was able to proceed out of the cave and into the desert nearby Damcyan Castle. However, it seems that I was too late...
     A small scene went down when the castle was in view. I saw a small grouping of air ships bomb the castle. After passing by, the castle was left in ruins. I quickly proceeded to the castle to search the remains. Upon entering, there were bodies of soldiers all over. I climbed up the castle until we came upon...Anna. Tellah ran to his daughter and called to her. While he was near her, someone came in and was shocked at what he saw. Tellah recognized him as the bard that tricked his daughter and attacked him. The next "battle" is a fairly well known and infamous moment in Final Fantasy history. Basically, it is composed of Tellah yelling at and smacking this mysterious bard with his staff. The famous line he yells of "You Spoony Bard!" is fairly well known...also funny. The battle dissolves, and Anna speaks out to both the bard and her father. She tells her father that she truly loved the bard, who we discover is Edward - Prince of Damcyan. However, she did feel wrong about running away and was going to return, but the ships came. She apologizes to her father and tells Edward that she truly loved him. She passes on after all this.
     I found out from Edward that a person by the name of Golbez is responsible for all this. He was made the leader of the Red Barons (Cecil's old job! :O), and he was apparently behind the plot to steal the crystals from the various nations. Tellah, angry at Golbez and grieving over his daughter's death, takes his leave of the party to go and take his revenge. With Tellah gone, the rest of the group joins together and focuses on the task of retrieving the Sand Pearl. Edward, still saddened by Anna's death, agrees to the task only because of Cecil's situation with Rosa. Edward informed the group of what the Sand Pearl was as well as where and how they would obtain it. It involves a giant ant lion creature and its secretions...Anyways, Edward gives us access to a hovercraft, which we need to get to the ant lion den, and it was time to move on from this sad, sad place and moment. I began the journey eastward to the Ant Lion's Den. The reason for the hovercraft was so we could traverse over a rocky patch of water.
     After crossing the rocky waters, I was able to delve into the Ant Lion's Den. Inside, it was a short crawl to the bottom. Edward went down to the ant lion as to retrieve the Sand Pearl. He claimed that the ant lion's were domesticated and gentle. However, something had gone wrong, and the ant lion attacked us! BOSS BATTLE TIME! It was a quick and tumble battle. I didn't come out unscathed, but I also didn't have much of a challenge from it. While looking up names on a guide, I found out that physical attacks on the ant lion cause it to counter attack with its pincers. This means I could have avoided some extra damage that I didn't need to take...oh well! After defeating the ant lion, I obtained the Sand Pearl and left the den. With the Sand Pearl in hand, I climbed inside my hovercraft and made way back to Kaipo. There was a shortcut I could take back using the hovercraft. Yay! I ran inside the town and used the Sand Pearl to heal Rosa. After being healed, Rosa gave more information on the situation at the kingdom of Baron. Apparently, many things are going weird. She mentions the name of Golbez, and how he took over control of the Red Barons. She also thinks that Golbez might be behind the king's strangeness and the reason for all the crystal collecting. Currently, Golbez has both the Water Crystal and the Fire Crystal. After some talking, the group figures his next target will be the Kingdom of Fabul and its Wind Crystal.
     Edward informed the group that the only way to get to Fabul is to climb across Mount Hobs. However, he does mention something about there being ice in the way. Rosa figures that won't be a problem since Rydia, being a summoner and mage, should be able to melt it with Fire. So I made my way back North to Mount Hobs and started climbing. The first thing we encounter was the ice I was warned about. However, a funny thing about Rydia is that for some reason she didn't have the Fire spell. It turns out that the trauma of her village burning down disallowed her usage of Fire. The group talks her through it, and she manages to pull through and cast Fire. The fire melts the ice, and I'm able to continue up the mountain. Mount Hobs was fairly uneventful...until events happened! The group was moving along when we came upon a monk being attacked by a group of monsters. Edward identified him as a monk of Fabul. He was able to easily handle most of them, but then he was attacked by a Mom Bomb (Yeah, I don't get it either). The group decides to help him out and BOSS BATTLE TIME! begins. The Mom Bomb was a slightly different version of the regular Bomb. It looked different, and after I did a good pile of damage to it, it exploded into a pile of Bombs and Grenades (different colored Bombs). I then put those Bombs and Grenades in their place...by defeating them.
     After the battle, the monk thanked the group and told us his name was Yang. He was the lone surviving monk of the monster attack. Everyone informed Yang of the impending doom that was heading for the Kingdom of Fabul. It was suspected that Golbez was behind the monster attack, and that he planned to take the Wind Crystal from Fabul. Yang realized that he needed to head back, and the group offered their help. He wasn't completely ready to accept their help, but they all talked about their situations. They showed their willingness and resolve to help him and Fabul, so he agreed and joined our little group. A small ways later, I was off the mountain and making my way to Fabul. Feeling like I did a lot (but not a lot timewise), I saved my game and stopped for the night.

Ending Point - On the opposite side of Mount Hobs.
Current Party -

• Cecil - Level 17
• Rydia - Level 15
• Edward - Level 13
• Rosa - Level 13
• Yang - Level 11

Goals Accomplished - Made it through the Underground Waterway. Made it to the Damcyan Nation. Gained the bard, Prince Edward, as a party member. Retrieved the Sand Pearl from the Ant Lion's Den. Cured Rosa of the Desert Fever. Proceeded to and through Mount Hobs. Helped Yang, the monk, and he joined the group.
Next Goals - Make it to the Kingdom of Fabul before the Baron forces do. Defend Fabul and keep Golbez from getting the Wind Crystal.

Day 25

Game - Final Fantasy 4, Day 25
Hours Played/Hours Total - 1 hr / 1 hr
Starting Point - Beginning of Final Fantasy 4.
Current Goal - Start Final Fantasy 4. Beat Final Fantasy 4.

What Happened - And thus begins the next tale in my saga of playing games with long tales. I've heard from several friends that Final Fantasy 4 is highly underrated. With this in mind, I am greatly looking forward to where this game takes me. I will apologize for extra, super long post ahead!
     The game opens up, and I already have an airship! (Or so I hoped but was wrong of course.) The initial opening of the game is pretty much all just story element. Let me tell you though...the PSP version of this game is INCREDIBLY pretty. I've played the original game (SNES) and the DS remake. The DS version was going for a full 3D look of environment and characters, but they apparently decided to go for a polished HD 2D look for the PSP edition. The PSP version is also called "Final Fantasy 4 - Complete" because it contains Final Fantasy 4 and the newly released Final Fantasy 4: The After Years. I'm unsure if I'll be playing the After Years at this moment, but I might change my mind before it is all over. Back to the game! It opens up, and I'm flying on an airship to some kingdom known as Mysidia. I've been sent there to retrieve a Crystal (SHOCKER!) for the King. It does a big sad bit where soldiers are slaughtering weak mages and defenseless people. Fast forward! My character is back in the Kingdom of Baron. The person who is currently at my helm is the Dark Knight (Wooo!) Cecil. I find myself in front of the King who accuses me of betrayal because Cecil questioned why they are not only slaughtering innocents but also stealing the crystals in the first place. The King gets mad, demotes me (5 minutes in and already demoted ._.), and then sends Cecil off on a mission to destroy an Eidolon in some city in the Misty Valley! The only odd thing he does is hand me a weird-named ring before I leave. OOooo! So ominous!
     After being sent away from the King, I finally gained control over Cecil and started looking around. You can talk to Kain (a dragoon! Wooo!). He burst in during the King's ridiculousness and tried to stop the King but got involved in the mission instead. I walk around some more and talk to all forms of castle personal. Not a lot to do right this moment, I found a few treasure chests with items and gold though. Walking along, I come into contact with a woman named Rosa (apparently the love interest of Cecil) as well as a man named Cid, who is an airship mechanic (familiar? I think so!). Both conversations with them generally involved the current strangeness of the King. I finally found Cecil's room and bed down for the night. Rosa comes in sometime later and the two talk. Apparently since he is a Dark Knight and her some form of White Mage, their love is forbidden or frowned upon or something. I'm not 100% sure on it, but they also talk some about Cecil's current feelings. He's starting to really doubt what the King is wanting him to do, but he wishes to obey the King because apparently the King has done a lot for him and Kain. I can already tell this game is going to be hard to avoid a lot of story spoilers...
     I wake up the next day and left the castle to complete the task given to me. I stopped in town to buy a few potions and tents, but otherwise I continued onward and upward. It was a short trip north, northeast to the Misty Cave. Inside, it was a simple cave dungeon. It really only had one path with a few treasure chests as I went along. As I proceeded through, I kept being interrupted by a mysterious voice that was warning me to turn and leave. Of course, I can't really turn and leave...Otherwise I'll never make it through the game! Finally, as I reached the end of the cave, I was attacked by a Mist Dragon. BOSS BATTLE TIME! The Mist Dragon put up quite a fight...kinda. Really, it isn't too tough of a fight, but it does have one fancy move that could have been troublesome. Basically, it can turn mist and is impervious to attacks while being mist. Also, if you attack the mist version of the Mist Dragon, it retaliates with a massive ice spell that attacks the entire party (of 2...). Basically, I had to wait it out until the dragon reformed itself. After reforming, I easily took down this dragon. Aaaaah yeaaaah!
     Figure I should tell a little about the fun and interesting new battle system that starts with 4 and goes on up until Final Fantasy 9. Final Fantasy 4 takes advantage of a new battle system called the Active Time Battle (ATB for short). Basically, each character has a meter that slowly fills as time goes by, based on speed and such. Once it fills up, you can choose your actions as usual. What this means is that you could possibly get in several attacks before the enemy gets in one. However, this also means that you are generally timed in your actions so you have to think and choose quickly. Of course, you can get around this by simply going into a secondary menu (like items or spells) and it generally stops the ATB bar in most of the FF titles that use it. They generally include a way to change it from ATB to the classic wait battle system, but that's not as fun or quick-paced. Anyways, back to the game!
     With the Mist Dragon defeated, I was finally able to proceed out of the cave and onward to the Village of Mist to deliver the funny ring. Upon entering the village of Mist, the ring lights up and reveals its true purpose...Apparently the ring was a cursed/trapped ring and immediately let loose a horde of Bombs (the popular FF enemy that is a giant fireball monster). They proceed to destroy the town to the horror of both Cecil and Kain. They hear a voice somewhere from inside the town and look around to find its source. Apparently there was one survivor in this village of Mist....a young girl. She stood next to the body of her dead mom. Her mom had died when someone killed her dragon (Uh oh...). Cecil and Kain realize what they have done and accidentally impart this to the girl. She freaks out and attacks them. The battle starts and she immediately summons Titan. Yes, it turns out that the village was a village of summoners. She summons Titan, and Titan proceeds to create a massive earthquake which shatters the continent (Daaaaaamn). Cecil wakes up to find himself with stranded with the girl, but there is no sight of Kain anywhere. With the girl in arms, I proceeded into the desert and towards the desert oasis of Kaipo.
     In Kaipo, Cecil needs to locate a place for the girl to rest, so I made my/his way to the Inn. The Innkeeper lets us sleep there for free since she is in such critical condition. Cecil sleeps nearby...only to be woken up in the middle of the night by the King's soldiers. They have come to retrieve the lone survivor of the village of summoners. I fought them off with little trouble, and the girl seemed to be...at least remotely thankful. Although she couldn't forgive Cecil for what he did to her mom, Cecil at least asked if he could protect her with his life. She told him her name (Rydia) and the story continued. With Rydia in the party, I had a magic user! Of course...she started off at level 1. I looked around town some and found out that a person had been found in the desert. The descriptions given lead towards one person...and the fears were realized. It seems that Rosa was found out in the desert, and she now had desert fever! Oh noes! It also seems that the only cure for desert fever is some sort of special pearl to heal her, but I have to cross the continent and fight a giant monster to get it. With this in mind, I started training up Rydia.
     After a few battles, she easily leveled up to around level 6. I figured this would be good enough for now and proceeded to a nearby cave, the Underground Waterway. It would hopefully take me in the direction I needed to go. The enemies here proved to be mostly pushovers, but I did have a small problem with zombies. The problem with the zombies was...that I could hardly damage the zombies with any of my current weapons or spells. Slowly but surely, I beat each group of zombies, but I would like to add extra emphasis on the slooooooowwwwllllyyyyyy. Anyways, around halfway through the cave, I ran into a mysterious old man. I talked to him, and he revealed himself as Tellah. He was trying to make it through the cave, but he needed some help with a monster and figured that a Dark Knight and Summoner could greatly assist him in this. Thus...I gained another party member! The Sage Tellah! Sage Tellah came into my party at the high level of 20, and he also came with a decent group of White and Black Magic. I forgot to mention before, but it seems that characters with spells (mages and such) learn certain spells at certain levels as they level up. At this point, Rydia knew one summon (Chocobo) as well as a few Black and White spells. Tellah came with a nice array of spells to add to my current lineup. I continued onward throughout the Waterway. I collected what treasure I could here and there while fighting off the monsters. Zombies were much easier with Tellah's Fire spell. It was going fairly well.
     After getting a little ways further, I located a special room with a magic barrier to ward off monsters as well as a pad that I could use tents/cottages on and save my game. Tellah used a tent to heal the group and more plot happened! It seems that Tellah is heading to the kingdom of Damcyan to find his daughter, Anna. She ran away and eloped with a bard, and Tellah was going to go get her back. Cecil reveals his reason for travelling through the waterway, and the game continues. Or..it would have, but I figured this was as good a time as any to settle down and save my game for the night.

Ending Point - Underground Waterway B2.
Current Party* -

• Cecil - Level 13
• Rydia - Level 9
• Tellah - Level 20 

Goals Accomplished - Started the game. Made it through the Misty Cave and defeated the Misty Dragon. Unfortunately destroyed the village of summoners. Helped and saved Rydia's life. Joined up with the sage Tellah. Began traversing the Underground Waterway.
Next Goals - Make it to the kingdom of Damcyan. Retrieve the Desert Pearl to heal Rosa.

*Side Note - Considering the direction the games will be going, I've decided to change the category of "Current Levels" to "Current Party" since it sounds better AND future titles have more characters than party slots.

Side Note 2 - I'd also like to add that I played a couple times over several days to do what I did. I didn't realize I had played so little (time-wise) because it felt like quite a bit has happened.
