Well i got the Mithril :D
Bombs originated from this game and this may be the first FF game in which undead creatures lose hp from cure spells.
I never tried in it FF1 because of the HARM spell but meh.
Going back to give the queen the mithril.

Returned the Mithril to Hilda. Now the shops have mithril equipment which is pretty good at this point in the game. Next i have to do something involving the Warship but first im training on captains to see what they drop. So far ive gotten a Flame Bow, the Toad spell book, and Gold Armor.

Its funny to see the mage type character do more than the warrior/fighters types.

Found the warship. Ends up it was already completed and now the empire seems to have the upper hand. Borgan, one of the empires generals uttered some familiar words:

"You spoony guy!"

Someone in the town of Bofsk mentioned the warship is headed towards Poft so that is my next stop.

This is starting to turn out to be one of my favorite FF storylines. The warship tore through many of the towns i had previously visited. Many died, except the important NPCs of course. Talked to Cid and he said the same fuel (Sun Flame) he uses for his airship also powers the Warship and if too much is used it explodes. So now im looking for the airship fuel which is in the town of Kashuon but first i need the Goddess Bell.

So now im looking for the Goddess Bell. I'll update the topic a little later.

Ok ill try to retain info so i can do bigger updates so last one before i try.

Had to go to the town of Salamando to ffind Josef because he knows the location of the Goddess Bell. However we need the Ice Sled to get to the location of the bell so he joins my party and i had to go back to the Semite Mines because Josef said that is where the sled lies. I found it and now im about to obtain the bell i suppose :D

I dont think he says that in the official Dawn Of Souls version. Sounds like your playing a fan translation. They probably just put that there to make fun of the line in FF4.

Just beat the Snow Cave. Adamatoise (sp) originates from this game :D
That guy Josef who was in my party just died :(
A huge boulder tried to destroy my party after i fought Borgan (the spoony guy guy) and Josef protected us. Everyone dies in this game -_-

Like i said im quitting for today. I have no reason to hate this game and so far it is easily becoming one of my favorites.

Yeah i've always wanted to play them all as well and now im actually going to do it :D

Well i got the Bell yesterday. Just took the airship to Kashuon where I met Prince Gordon who was looking for the Egil Torch to contain the Sun Flame. He joined my party to look for it.

Didn't take too long to find the Torch. Now its time to retrieve the Sun Flame.

Got the Sun Flame but after i existed Kashuon, the Warship was attacking Cid's Airship! Like i said awesome storyline so far.

Turns out the Empire captured Cid and Princess/Queen Hilda and now they reside in the Warship which has landed north of the Phin Castle. Too bad the enemies north of Phin are still a burden for me so i guess i better go Chocobo Forest to pick up a Chocobo :D

Well i found the Warship and got on with the pass i found in the sewers i explored earlier. Its funny they know we are the enemy but never try to stop us o.o

Anyways i found Cid and the princess in a cell that was easily broken into and wasn't guarded in the slightest. Cid took Hilda out of the Warship and told me to complete my mission (Destroy the Warship).

I opened a chest and it had a Gigas in it (i remember those in FF6 so first appearance from them).

Well i put the Sun Flame into the Engine then witnessed the funniest video game explosion of all time. Awww the Warship was making the story quite interesting but im sure something else will take its place i hope. Apparently the Dark Knight (someone who supposed is a traitor of Phin) is a familiar voice to the female character of the game.

Oh well now im suppose to find a town inhabited by Dragoons :D

Ok found out the town braced with Dragoons is east of Altea. To go east i have to go to the town of Palm in which a girl i haven't seen was present. She offered to take me to Dist however during the ride the boat stopped and her "associates" tried to apprehend my equipment.

I easily defeated her pirate crew and she wanted to take the honorable way out for her treachery (kill her). Instead we offered to let her join our party :D

Now im taking a break. When i come back to the game ill go to Dist.

You have to spend hours hitting yourself to raise your Defense stat... or just let the enemies hit you, but that takes longer.

Or just because you have to raise each stat individually (which takes ages), and the whole game just feels... broken.

The story might be good, I wouldn't know. I was too annoyed by the gameplay in the game to pay any attention to the short bits of story inbetween all the tedious stat raising.

I don't get it either.

About defense, the regular equips you get (helmet, armor, gauntlet, helmet, etc) seem to be ok.
The game is broken though. So easy to raise your hp stat. I like the story a lot so far and i don't mind the stat raising. I love training in RPGs and in this one its pretty fun imho.

Didn't get to play today but i'll play all tomorrow if i have to!

Ok i have a boat so you know what that means:

TIME TO GET LOST!

Actually it means time to explore the map so to see if i can find any side quests or whatnot. I happened upon the magical town of Mysidia. Vivi wannbes everywhere! It was like a dream come true. Anyways this town has some very expensive stuff but it also had the Holy spell for sale! I wonder if ill be able to buy Ultima or Flare as well XD.

Also i saw Molbor/Malboro! It looks so smexy in this game. Well time to see if i can find anything else before heading for Dist.

So many sexy things came from the first two FFs i can't believe im just now playing them.

Ok so im in Dist and i see this child and as i approach him he runs away twice. Eventually he runs to his mother Elina who tells me the Empire disposed of the Dragoons by poisoning them. Apparently they don't need a Warship to wreak havoc around the world. One dragoon survive however but he is also poisoned and won't last long. Unfortunately i can't understand the Hiryuu (Dragoon language) without a pendant so my next destination is the Dragoon Cave.

I arrived in the cave and after an hour of so i found the pendant off the dead body of a dragoon. I returned back to Dist Castle to discover that Dragoons are born from eggs and luckily the last remaining hiryuu has one. So now im going back to the cave to put the egg into the spring of life.

Ok put the egg into the spring after fighting 4 chimeras. Went back to Dist after completing my mission and found out the last Hiryuu died :(

Elina mention into a foreshadowing tone that one day hopefully whatever hatched from the egg will fight with me o.O

I bet it will :D

Ok now to Altea to see what my next mission is.

In Altea everyone was hinting that something was wrong with the Princess. Earlier before i went to Dist i knew something was up with her (all she say was Hajajll gibberish really). Well i talked to her but she only wanted to talk to the main character, so the other 3 left the room. Then she and I sat on her bed.

OMG SEX IN FF2!

No nothing went on :(
However it ended up not being the princess and instead it was a serpent named Queen Lamia. I beat her pretty easily then found out there is a tournament going on and the prize is the princess Hilda.

The empire must have switched princesses while she was on the warship (the empire is delightful evil and smexy). Well on to the tournement.

Had trouble finding the Chocobo Forest again so i could go northeast to Paramekia, the place in which the arena resides. I got there and when i did i instantly got into a fight with a Behemoth. It is suppose the first boss of the game -_-

Anyway i won and then the Emperor of the Empire told me he knew i was going to come to save the princess so him had some henchman surround me and my party and put us in jail.

Then Paul, a guy i meet at the beginning of the game who said i steal from the empire and the empire only, knocked out a guard to help us escape from jail. Then he said, " I don't like owing favors", and left (i don't remember saving him or whatnot o.o).

Now im trying to escape the arena without the Emperor knowing.

I was on my way back to the Phin castle and i saw an tent outside. I went inside and everyone from Altea was there! It seems the castle was taken over by the empire. I'm loving the empire right now just to let you know. Anyway time to kill everyone in the castle. King Gordon orders <3.

I defeat Commander Gotus who took over the castle. Now most of the Altea residents are now in Phin. Now i have to go to Mysidia (lol already been) to get the Ultima. But first i have to go into the Phin basement to get one of the mask required to break the Mysidia Tower Seal to get Ultima.

On my way to Mysidia i noticed an island on the map that i had been before but the enemies were kind of powerful so i skipped it. Well this time around i tackled the cave. Found out that this was the cave to the black mask! Grabbed the mask and left but i noticed i didn't explore the cave entirely so im going to see what i missed.

Well there was a minitown of sorts in the cave. A town of mask people! MM would be proud. Anyways bought some interesting things there but they were weaker than the equip i had already obtained from Mysidia so i lost some of my earnings -_-

Hopefully now i have what i need for Ultima.
