Blue Spire

After exiting the Blue Labyrinth, you'll now find yourself in the Blue Spire Garden. Simply cross the bridge, using the Statue of Althena if need be, watch the sleek animation, and then enter the Blue Spire.

Once inside, you're now on the Floor 1. There are 2 stairways leading to Floor 2. One in the NW corner and the other in the NE corner. Opt to go NW and grab an Angel's Tear from the chest and then take the stairs.
On Floor 2, the stairs going up to Floor 3 are in the SW and SE corners. Take whichever suits your fancy and head up to Floor 3.
Upon reaching Floor 3, you'll find there are 3 stairs up to Floor 4. The NW and NE corners lead to a Herb and a Healing Nut, respectively, while the stairs in the middle of the room allow you to reach higher floors. Visit the 2 corners and get thier treasure and then take the middle set of stairs up to Floor 4.
Floor 4 has 2 sets of stairs going up in the SW and SE corners. Take whichever you like, but be sure and grab the Herb from the chest by the SE corner before doing so.
On Floor 5, visit the NE corner for a Star Light and then then NW corner for 72 S and the stairs up to Floor 6. Enjoy the scenic view here on Floor 6, but head to the stairs due East of the entrance to find Floor 7.
When you finally reach the 7th Floor, Gwyn starts to babble about a hidden passage to the top floor of the Spire. He walks off and leaves you & Ruby to find it. So, walk North and find the floating globe (which closely resembles the Blue Star) and touch it. This will warp you to the top of the tower and land you in the Transmission Chamber.
Walk up and explore the green crystal in the room. This will set off a rather nifty sequence and you'll meet Lucia. Once you introduce yourselves, she asks for your help to find the Goddess Althena. Ruby says no, but Hiro offers and says yes. Then Lucia warps you back down to the 7th Floor.

When you appear again on the 7th Floor, Gwyn nearly has a heart attack. After a brief introduction, Gwyn suggests that you leave before Leo gets here. Not a bad idea.

When you get back down to Floor 6, you get rushed by a horde of baddies. Hiro, being the brave lad he is, yells that he'll protect Lucia, but during the battle, Lucia unleashes a Plasma Rain spell wiping them all out. After the battle, everyone gawks at Lucia a bit, and then you procede down the Spire.
When you get back down to Floor 1, make sure Gwyn is Level 12. If not, walk up and down a few floors fighting. When he reaches Level 12 and gains the Shattered Sword spell, leave the Spire.
Once outside, Lucia babbles about not being able to sense the Goddess. After the animation scene, talk to Lucia.
Another sequence takes place. In this one, Zophar shows up and zaps Lucia, stripping her (mmm...err!! ^^) of her power and leaving her with...1 HP of life...*thud*...just wonderful... When the sequence is over, pick Lucia up, heal at the Statue, and then Save your game and then walk back into the Blue Labyrinth.

     The Guardian has 3 attacks. The 1st attack, is a Stat Spell he uses on himself to boost his Defense and Attack stats, and can be expected when he starts flashing and stretching the chain in his hands. The 2nd attack, can be identified when he is standing still and clenching his fists. He uses his Mace at one character causing moderate-serious damage. The 3rd attack, can be identified when he's swing his mace over his head. It causes an Attack that damages everyone next to (and including) the person the Mace hits.

     The Guardian can be a tough fight, but you should win easily. Here's what to do: Hiro should use Poe Sword every round. Gywn should cast Fractured Armor, then Shattered Sword, and then heal everyone up. Keep repeating that rotation.

     If you're careful about healing, you'll win with no problems.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you lay waste to the Guardian, walk back and heal up at the Althena's Statue and then Save. Once you save, make your way down the Blue Labyrinth and exit the dungeon. When you finally make it outside, the 4 OTHER Guardian Statues come to life and attack you.
Once 2 of your 3 party members die, Leo shows up and slaughters ALL of the Guardians at once with the Destiny's Dragon Cannon. After this, Leo yells at Gwyn. Once Leo has his say,walk past the Destiny and Leo stops you to interogate Lucia.
Hiro tells a clever lie that sends Leo and a bunch of Guardsmen running up the Spire in battle lust. Make use of this time to get back to Gwyn's House.
