Once here, head for the inn to heal and save. Now head back to the sewers and
open the chest to fight yet another Fake. Physical Attacks are crap in this
fight, so let your magic users go crazy. Once done, rest if needed, and put
Zelos in the lead and talk with all the women in town, and most of them will
give you some free items and Gald. Now for our next destination, head for
the inn, and go right, and then up to find the research building. Watch a
scene, and Zelos will invite you to his mansion for the night. To get there,
head up the stairs, leading to the second story of town (weapons and armor)
and take the middle stairs again going up, and you'll be in the castle area.
But hang a right before the castle to enter another portion of town. Zelos's
mansion is the second one you see. Enter it, talk with everyone. If you
can't find Genis and Presea, they're at the top of the stairs. Talk with
Genis to watch a humorus scene (poor Genis) and then talk with the Butler to
rest.
Now head back for the research building, watch a short scene, and now it's
time to leave. How to leave? Head back to the sewers exit, and you'll be
given of an option of "Quick Jump". Select Yes, and you'll be at the entrance
of the sewers in town. So now follow the path, and exit town.

Head for the Tethe'alla Bridge.
--------------
TETHE'ALLA BRIDGE
--------------
Enter the bridge, and take the first right, head down the steps, and find
Kuchinawa. Watch another scene, and then some instructions of how to operate
the EC will come up. If you somehow need help with it, the directions are
as follows;
A Button: Move forward
B Button: Embark/Disembark the EC (Docks only)
Control Stick: Tilt left and right to turn
C Stick: Tilt up and down to move forward and backward.
Once ready, head follow the side of the bridge until you come across a dock.
Push B near it to get off. Now go to Sybak.
--------------
SYBAK
--------------
You'll see Kratos here, and watch a short scene here. OK, I really don't get
this here. After Kratos leaves, Zelos calls Kratos an SOB, and Sheena scolds
him for the language, and yet, Lloyd has been using 'Dammit', 'Hell', and
'Bastard' in front of Sheena, and she hasn't said anything to him. Meh, go
figure. Anyways, head back to the sewer that you came out of earlier, and
talk with Kate when you're back in there to trigger another scene, and she'll
suggest you go see a dwarf named Altessa. Now exit the town.

WORLD MAP
--------------
Our next destination is the Gaoracchia Forest, which is Northeast from Sybak.
--------------
GAORACCHIA FOREST
--------------
You'll encounter a battle when you enter with some soldiers, so lay waste to
them. Before you continue on, let me warn you, the monster you want to watch
out for is the Boxing Iris. These things will uppercut you like there's no
tomorrow, meaning you'll be pressing X quite a few times in this forest. With
that said, head straight to enter the forest.
Examine the pillar to change the function of your Sorcerer's Ring. It'll
shoot a light beam out now, which is used to clear way of vines, or what I
like to call, really bad weeds. Take the right path at the fork. Once here,
keep going to the right until you see some flowers with a light beam over
them. Stand on the flowers to regenerate your Sorcerer's Ring power until
it's full. Once it's full, head up, and you'll be able to see the bottom
of a treasure chest covered with vines. So shine your light on the vines to
clear them away to get the Phoenix Rod, a new weapon for Raine. Now head to
the right. Go down the path and there should be a vine to your right. Use
your light to get rid of it, and get a Witches Robe for either Raine or
Sheena. See those vines just above you? Get rid of those, and go to the
right. There should be yet another treasure chest covered in vines along your
path, so get rid of the vines to claim your prize, and keep going down the
path, and then take a right.
There should be another recharge station here, so recharge, and then get rid
of the vines in your path. Go down, and then downright (Southwest) through
a vine. You should see yet another fork. Take the Southeast path this time,
and you should see another chest covered by vines next to the path. You can't
open this chest yet. You'll be able to open it later, though. Now keep going
southwest and ignore the branched path to the left until you come across a
save point. Save your game. The second Sword Dancer is also here. He's only
here if you beat the first one back at the Ossa Trail. If you want to fight
him, head back up the path you were going, but the left path this time, and
the skull should be sitting there down the path. If you wish to fight him
now, talk with him, but I'd wait until you get a little stronger.
Nonetheless, here's a strategy for him still.
