Part 6: The East Continent
You should now be able to buy special medicine in Old Hill. I don't think it differs from the regular stuff, except that it's 20% cheaper.
Talk to the person in Baz' house. They'll give you a special plum that will restore one character's HP completely. But you can only hold one dose at a time.
Now talk to Baz himself at the northern edge of town.
Morgan will dig his way through the wall.
Now you can go through the tunnel to the eastern continent. Once outside, head directly east to the town of Box Town.
You will need to buy some boxing gloves in the weapon/armor shop.
Now enter that huge tent. You'll find some charming people like this.
Have the Aqutallion party approach the leader. Make sure Ray has equipped the Gloves.
Let's get ready to rumble!
This is a real easy hit-and-heal fight. Remember to equip a stronger weapon through the item menu, to make it go faster.

Down for the count! Now head south to the next town.
It's a pretty short walk to Sleepers, the town of perpetually-tired people.
(Actually, it was a town of drunks in the original. So of course NoA censored it.)
Priceless piece of random NPC dialouge.
Wandering around, you'll encounter Arthur. You'll fight him. He'll blow gas, but you should counter by using Slow on him. Hit him.

Now you should head south a few paces to the town of Karappon. (trivia: not surprisingly, "Karappo" is Japanese for vacant/hollow)
Talk to the only resident of this town (Uncle Save doesn't count), Arithree.
If you defeated Andy and Arthur, they'll destory the rock south of Karappon. (as you might have guessed, Andy and Arthur were Arione and Aritwo in Japanese :P)
Andy and Arthur join your Kustera party. Arithree opens the warehouse in Old Hill. Now you can store and retrieve excess items. You can also use it to trade between Kustera and Aqutallion. Very useful if you used the money glitch back in Decatas.
Now you need to go south. You will reach a fork in the road. Heading west will lead you to the third Star Shrine. As with the first two, remember this place for later.
Now head south to continue. You will soon reach the town of Codo.
Not much to do here, but upgrade your weapons. Also, be sure to check for the hidden Moon Drop.
Now head south. If you want to visit Brasca all peaceful-like, you may want to head there, on the south edge of the contintent first.
Hello, I'm from five minutes into the future.
From the first patch of sand you encounterd in Zoo Desert, coming from Codo, head directly south and you should find the town of Lagoon. A place filled with strange people and crap wares in the shops.
Sheesh, they don't like foreign old people much, do they?
By the end of the game, you'll find Rimstera is quite the dish.
After you go enter and exit any building, you'll find some guy is blocking the exit.
What's this old man gonna do?
Ugh. He's gonna flash himself!
Worse yet, turn into Dram and set to kill the last Aqutallion.
You'll be teleported outside of town. If you try to re-enter, you are just warped back outside.
This is actually a repeating loop of four mirage towns in square.
From the starting point, walk south until you reach a mirage town. Don't enter it, but walk east to the next mirage town, and enter that one to return to the world map. Head to Brasca along the coast to the southeast.
After entering town, you'll see some planes approach town.
And blow the crap out of it.
Talking to the people in town, you'll head about an old man being the cause of the disaster, as well as an old well.
Aqutallion can enter the cave. Enter a lava pool, then cast the Step spell to walk through it without taking damage.
Bolt Fish and Blade Fish each have a rare drop. Blade Fish has the ElfinBow, which can be used by a Kustera you won't meet for awhile. And you'll find one before you really need it. But Bolt Fish has an immediately useful rare drop. It's the Discarmar, which Leona can equip. Both of these weapons can hit twice. (if you don't know what a discarmar is, it's the giant spiked yoyo used by the main character in Rygar, also by Tecmo.)
Enter the room on the east side and flip the switch to drain the northeast lava pool.
It will drain into the bottom level of the cave. Enter, and again cast Step to avoid damage.
Go to the ladder to the west, and flip the switch to drain the center lava pool.
With both lava pools drained, you'll be able to reach the ladder to the west switch room. Flip the switch to drain the west lava pool.
With all three lava pools drained, the lava will have risen high enough that you can swim(?) across the top of it to reach the doorway below the east lava pool.
You'll meet the Wiseman Bowy, who tells you about the father of each of the Aqutallion.
Cody's father was a great swordsman named Siller. Leona's was a bright and happy man named Roger. Tina's was a warm-hearted man named Henry who comforted them all, and Ray's father was the leader, Aris.
He is the only one left, but is too old. He asks you to take his young son Dan in his place.
At that point, Dram appears. Dram and Bowy spar, Bowy loses.
Your turn.
To fight Dram, use Slow and Evade 2 to lower his defence and hit rate. He's vulnerable to magic. So use the best you've got.

With his last power, Dram nukes the house to try and crush you inside. Dan uses his magic to send you outside.
You are again reminded of your goal to become Aqutallion as soon as possible.
Propserous Wiseman Dan joins you.
Now you've done it. Upon killing Dram, Homncruse has awakened, and he's pissed.
Some guy named Jaguar also appeared from out of nowhere.
The planes are approaching Old Hill.
Let's see, you're halfway across the world. That must make Leona's eyesight like 4000/20.

What's the commotion?
