Challenge Boss Monsters

Deep within dungeons, formidable boss monsters await. 
Summon every power at your disposal to defeat them. 
Once a battle begins, you cannot flee.

After defeating a boss monster, you can collect a drop of 
myrrh. Each drop fills a third of your chalice. Once you 
collect myrrh from a myrrh tree, it takes several years for 
the tree to replenish its supply.

A moogle will come to deliver mail while you rest after 
battle. You can send replies as well (p. 31). No mail will 
come if the myrrh tree there is dry.

Items and artifacts (p. 33) are divided among the members 
of the caravan. In multiplayer mode, the player who earns 
the most bonus points gets first choice. The number of 
points you accumulate depends on how well you fulfill the 
bonus condition displayed on your GBA screen.

The Basics

Players are members of a crystal caravan that seeks out 
myrrh. Your adventure will unfold in the following manner:

Game Progression

From the world map menu, select "Set Out," then select a 
character or create a new one. You can have up to eight 
characters in a caravan.

Use the Control Stick to move your caravan across the 
world map. When you reach your destination, press 
the A Button to enter.

Once you enter a dungeon, the world map is replaced with 
the field map. You are given a chance to set up your 
command list (pp. 16 and 23) before advancing further.

Defeat monsters you encounter and solve puzzles 
hindering your path. Collect treasure from monsters and 
treasure chests.

Return to the World Map

Return to the world map to continue your journey. Be sure to purchase new 
equipment from blacksmiths in town now and then. You never know what you'll run 
into on your journey.

Game Progression

Basic steps to advance the game are outlined below. They generally apply to 

both single-player mode and multiplayer mode.
