What is Phantasy Star?

Well unless you've been living under a rock, you should already know 
what Phantasy Star is, especially since you're looking at this FAQ.  

Phantasy Star is perhaps Sega's most well-known and successful RPG, 
spanning 4 major games and 2 Game Gear spin offs.  

Phantasy Star 1, the focus of this FAQ, was released in Japan in 
December 20, 1987.  A North American release followed a year later in 
1988. At the time Phantasy Star was released, it was a technical 
marvel.  From a technical standpoint,   Phantasy Star was the first 
game of its time to utilize a massive 4 megabyte cartridge, along with 
FM sound. It was also the first game to do full 3-D, and smooth at 
that. The 3-D effects can be seen throughout ALL of the dungeons and 
towers throughout the world of Phantasy Star.
However, these 3-D dungeons were traded in favor of  overhead view when 
exploring dungeons in Phantasy Stars 2, 3, and 4 for Mega Drive (Sega 
Genesis).


The Story...

"The time: Space Century 3240.  The Place: The Algol Star System.  It 
began when King Lassic turned evil and let hordes of hideous, magical 
creatures run amok on three planets.  When her brother was killed, Alis 
vowed to avenge his death and put an end to Lassic forever.

Join her in a journey across time and space to worlds where creatures 
speak...where magic and science combine to take you on the ultimate 
video quest." (Excerpt taken from back of the box).


The Cast...

Alis: The main heroine of the story.  Her brother, Nero, was killed by 
Lassic when he attempted to find out the truth.  Alis vowed to avenge 
his death.  Alis is a resident in Camineet, a city in Palma under 
martial law.  

As a fighter, Alis is capable.  Her main weapons are swords, though she 
can use any weapons except for axes, fangs, and guns.  Even at that, 
Alis's overall attack power is very high. Alis is also capable of 
having the highest defense of the 4 members of your party, given that 
her best equipment is equipped.  

Alis is capable of minimal magic abilities. Alis's magic spells consist 
of 6 spells, most of them doing no damage.  

Below are Alis's stats at the HIGHEST level (level 30)

HP: 218 
MP: 32
Spells: Bye, Chat, Fire, Fly, Heal, Rope

Best Equipment: Laconian Shield, Laconian Sword, Diamond Armor

Attack: 116 
Defense: 230
=============================================================== 

Myau: A peculiar cat-like creature you meet somewhat early in the game. 
Myau has a necklace with a special chemical (Alsulin), that Alis needs 
in order to free Odin from Medusa's curse.

Myau, like Alis, is very capable in all areas.  Myau, however, is much 
better in magic than Alis. Myau's magic abilities are surpassed only by 
that of Noah's. In battle, Myau is also very capable of physical 
encounters.  Myau's attack power is the same as Alis's, though Alis's 
seems to do SLIGHTLY more damage in battle than Myau. Myau is very 
quick and seems to dodge attacks more consistently than anyone else.

Myau's magic consists of  6 spells.  None of Myau's spells do any 
damage. They are used as boosters, or spells that help the party during 
exploration or in battle.

Myau can be found in a shop in Paseo on Motavia. You must have obtained 
the Laconian Pot from the blue house in the north-west area of Camineet 
in order to obtain him. 

Below are Myau's stats at the HIGHEST level (level 30)

HP: 214
MP: 55
Spells: Cure, Exit, Help, Terrify, Trap, Wall

Best Equipment: Silver Fang, Thick Fur, Gloves

Attack:  116
Defense: 188
=============================================================== 

Odin: A man of legendary strength and a friend to Alis's brother, Nero.  
Odin's immense strength allows him to wield some of the games strongest 
weapons that even Alis can't.  Odin can be found in the cave south of 
the Camineet residential area (Medusa's Cave). Odin has been turned to 
stone and needs Myau's Alsulin to free him from the curse.

Odin lacks any magical powers. However, his strength and expertise in 
weaponry makes up for that.  Odin is unique in the sense that he can 
wield any weapon, except for the fangs for Myau.  Odin can also use 
guns, which are very useful. 

Odin can be found in Medusa's Cave, directly south of the wall 
surrounding the Camineet Residential Area.  Navigate through the cave 
with Myau and use Alsulin when you reach a statue of a man.

Below are Myau's stats at the HIGHEST level (level 30)

HP: 192 
MP: 0
Spells:  None

Best Equipment: Laconian Axe, Laconian Armor, Mirror Shield

Attack: 127
Defense: 194
=============================================================== 

Noah: A legendary Esper. Noah is one of the few people left gifted in 
the ability of magic. Being an Esper, Noah's magical powers are 
unsurpassed by anyone else.  Noah is a good friend of the governor of 
Paseo.  Noah is very solitary. She lives in a cave (Naula Cave) in the 
deserts of Motavia.

Noah's spells are by far the most powerful in the game.  Her Wind and 
Thunder Spells hits multiple times and do high damage.  However, her 
spells also cost her immense MP consumption. You must use Noah's spells 
cautiously.  Noah is physically poor in battle, though she does have 
good defense.  Many of her strikes do little damage or miss completely.

Noah can be found in Naula Cave, northwest of Paseo.  You MUST have 
obtained the letter from the governor, or she will not join you.  

Below are Noah's stats at the HIGHEST level (level 30)

HP: 195
MP: 83
Spells: Fire, Cure, Exit, Open, Protect, Rise, Tele, Thunder, Wind

Best Equipment: Wand, Frad Mantle, Laser Shield

Attack: 85
Defense: 193
=============================================================== 

The Quest...

Camineet

You start off in Camineet with just Alis.  You will notice a small, 
gray hut to your right.  Go into that hut and you will be in your first 
3-D dungeon.  Walk north until you see a break in the road heading to 
your LEFT.  Go into the break and follow the path to a door. Open the 
door and open the chest with 50 mesetas.  Exit the cave.

Now, exit the town and head outside the walls. Do not head out too far.  
Walk around there and fight the enemies you encounter. If you encounter 
2 Scorpions, run immediately.  You are not strong enough to fight 2 
scorpions.  Fight either 1 Scorpion and or a few Swarms.  After every 
battle, go back into Camineet.  Enter the first house you see (orange).  
Inside you will meet Suelo, and she will heal you for free.  Simply 
repeat this process and save up money for better weapons.  Make sure 
Alis gets to at least level 6.

Once Alis reaches level 6, go and upgrade her equipment.  In my 
experience, I was able to afford a Ceramic Sword for her.  Once you're 
satisfied with her new equpment, head back out.  Now, if you have at 
least 200 mesetas leftover, head east of Camineet.   You will hit a 
port town called Scion...
=============================================================== 

Scion

Once at Scion, head for the Second-Hand shop.  You will notice the 
clerk sells you an item called "Secrets". When you try to purchase it, 
he will kick you out of his store.  Simply walk back in 3 times and try 
to but the "Secrets".  On the third time, he will give in and give you 
the ROADPASS.  After you have done this, you may explore Scion or head 
back to Camineet.  Heading back to Camineet progresses you further in 
the game.
=============================================================== 

Back at Camineet...

Now that you have your Roadpass, you can walk past the guards at the 
far west exit of the town.  This conveyor belt will take you to the 
Palma Spaceport....
Before you leave, make sure you head into the blue house near the west 
walkway heading to the spaceport.  The man inside will give you a 
Laconian Pot.  You will need this item very soon...
===============================================================

The Palman Spaceport...

Once you've arrived, head into the first shop on the right in the 
spaceport.  Inside will be a lady that sells Passports.  Make sure you 
buy one for 100 mesetas.  If you don't have enough, go back out and 
fight until you have enough.  She will ask you a series of questions 
before she will hand you the passport.  Answer "NO" to both her 
questions and she will give you a passport.  

Now that you have your passport, head west a little more until you see 
2 guards standing in a narrow walkway.  Talk to them and show them your 
passport.  You will be allowed access to the Jet area.  Simply walk to 
the jets and answer "Yes" when the man asks you if you want to go to 
Motavia...
=============================================================== 

Motavian Spaceport...

After your flight, you will end up in Paseo's spaceport.  Simply head 
north and talk to the 2 guards at the walkway. Show them your passport. 
You should now be on the walkway and heading into Paseo...
=============================================================== 

Paseo...

When you get to Paseo, head into one of the domes on your left side.  
In one of them, a man will ask you if you want to buy a cat for 1 
Billion meseta.  Hopefully, you have gotten the Laconian Pot like 
mentioned earlier. If you have, say "No" when he asks you if you want 
to buy the cat. He will then ask you about the pot.  He asks if you 
would trade your Laconian Pot for the cat. Answer "Yes".  Myau is now 
yours...
=============================================================== 
 
Myau: The Mystical Cat...

Now that you have Myau, you will notice that Myau has a bottle around 
its neck.  Inside that bottle is a liquid called Alsulin. Alsulin is 
used to turn people back to life after they have been turned to stone. 
You will notice Myau saying something about a man that has been turned 
to stone.  Myau is talking about Odin.  Knowing that, you should now 
head back to Palma via spaceport.

Before you leave Paseo, it is highly recommended you visit the armory 
shop.  In there, you will notice 2 unique items for sale.  One is the 
Diamond Armor and the other is the Thick Fur.  Purchase the Thick Fur 
for Myau for 600 mesetas. If you have at least 15,000 mesetas leftover 
(you probably don't), then go ahead and purchase the Diamond Armor for 
Alis. The Diamond Armor is Alis's best armor, giving her a defense of 
+60.
===============================================================

Back at Palma...

Head back to Camineet and buy some burgers and a flash, which is 
required.  Exit out to the world map and exit the walls of Camineet. 
Follow the wall that surrounds the area south and when the wall bends 
west, follow the bend.  Eventually, you'll see a cave.  That cave is 
Medusa's Cave. Odin waits in there cursed in stone.  Enter the cave if 
you think you're ready.  Make sure to level up Myau to at least level 5 
before entering. 
===============================================================

Medusa's Cave...

Once in the cave, you'll notice it's pitch black.  Hopefully, you've 
bough the flash like mentioned above. If you did, use it. Now, follow 
these directions leading striaght to Odin.

Walk north 5 steps or so until you hit a break in the road turning 
WEST. Head west into the break. Once in the break, you will see another 
break turning in west. You can turn in an collect the chest of 20 
meseta. If you're just wanting to get Odin, ignore that break and head 
straight. Eventually you'll hit a 2 way hall.  Turn LEFT and follow the 
path. Ignore the break you see.  Just keep following the path.  Once 
you turn left and hit a dead end, you should notice a statue of a man.  
That is Odin. Look through your item list and find Alsulin.  Use it....
=============================================================== 

Odin and the Compass...

Once you free Odin, he will tell you that he has a Compass stashed 
somewhere in this cave.  From where you find Odin, turn around and head 
back around the corner.  Now, just walk STRAIGHT.  Ignore any breaks 
you see.  Just head straight and you will eventually turn into a RIGHT 
corner.  Turn right and walk straight.  You will hit a chest.  In that 
chest is the Compass.

Now, to exit the cave, just walk back around the corner and turn LEFT 
into the first break you see.  Then just walk straight until you hit a 
two way passage. Turn RIGHT and you're out.
=============================================================== 

The Village of Eppi...

South of Medusa's Cave you should see a small forest surrounding a 
village.  If you tried to enter this forest before, you will not have 
been able to cross it. Now that you have the Compass, and Odin might I 
add, you can walk across the forest into the town. In this town, 
there's nothing really important, except for one thing.

Head for the house in the middle along the top of the village.  Inside 
you will see a old man that tells you about the Dungeon Key. He will 
ask you if you have heard of a Dungeon Key. Answer "No" to the question 
and he will tell you that he put it in the Camineet Storage Cave.  
Simply head back to Camineet and head into the storage dungeon in the 
north-eastern corner of the town.
=============================================================== 
 
The Dungeon Key...

Once you're back in Camineet, head for the storage dungeon. (It's the 
cave you went into at the very beginning of the game with the 50 
mesetas).  Once in, simply head straight.  Do not turn into any 
passages.  Just head straight and at the dead end,  you will see a 
chest. Open it and you will receive the Dungeon Key.
=============================================================== 

The Iron Fang

Now that you have the Dungeon Key, you can go and get Myau's Iron Fang.  
The Iron Fang can be found in a cave to the south of Scion, near the 
end of the peninsula.  Before you enter this cave, it is HIGHLY 
recommended that you have obtained either the flute, or more likely, 
the Exit spell for Myau.  This cave can be very frustrating to find 
your way around.  It should also be noted that this cave is COMPLETELY 
OPTIONAL.  You do not have to do this cave or find the Iron Fang at 
all.  If you do, make sure you buy a flash, or better yet, a Magic Lamp 
from the second hand store in Parolit (the sister town of Camineet), 
for 1500 mesetas.

When you're ready, head into the cave.  Once in, follow these 
directions to get to the Iron Fang.  If you don't want to get Myau's 
Iron Fang, skip this section completely to the one below.

When you first enter, you will see a locked door.  Using your Dungeon 
Key, unlock the door.  Once in, walk up a little until you see a break 
in the road leading LEFT. Turn LEFT and you will immediately see a 2 
way road.  Turn LEFT again. Walk forward a few steps.  You should see 
another break in the road.  Turn RIGHT into the break and you will see 
a 2 way break again. Turn LEFT at the 2 way break and follow the path.  
Once you have turned RIGHT around the corner, you will see a break in 
the road heading LEFT.  Turn left and follow the path.  Turn around one 
corner turning RIGHT and walk straight.  You will hit another corner. 
Turn RIGHT again.  You will now see a break in the road turning RIGHT.  
Turn RIGHT into the break and you will see stairs heading down. Head 
down the stairs.

Once down the stairs, you will face a 2 way split.  Turn LEFT at the 
split and walk straight until you see a break turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT 
and head straight 2 steps. You will now see a split turning RIGHT. Turn 
RIGHT into the split and follow the path. You will hit a door.  Simply 
open it and walk straight.  After you go through the door, turn RIGHT 
when you hit the corner then walk straight.  You will see a break in 
the road turning RIGHT.  Ignore the break and head straight until you 
reach a 2 way split. When you do, turn RIGHT at the split and head 
straight.  You should reach stairs that head down.  Go down the stairs.

Once down, walk foward one step and turn RIGHT. Follow the path 
STRAIGHT until you hit a door.  Open the door when you reach it. Follow 
the path after you opened the door until you hit a 2 way split. At the 
split, turn LEFT and follow the path until you hit another 2way split. 
Turn LEFT again and then left around the corner and down the stairs.

Once down the stairs, walk until you hit a 2 way split.  Turn RIGHT at 
the split and follow the path straight, ignoring all the breaks. Turn 
RIGHT when you hit the corner and walk straight into the dead end.  You 
will fight Skeletons, who have 65 HP.  The number of Skeletons you 
fight vary. If you win, open the chest and you will have the Iron Fang. 
Use the flute or the Exit spell, or walk out.
=============================================================== 

The Governor's Gift: Naula Cave 

This cave, unlike the cave above, is required.  You must get to the 4th 
basement floor of this cave. Inside, there is a shortcake shop.  If you 
spoke to one of the people at the Motavian spaceport, they tell you 
that there is a cakeshop in Palma.  This shop is this cave.  In order 
for you to meet the Governor of Motavia and recieve the letter to give 
to Noah, you must "bribe" his guards with this cake to let you pass.

To find this cave, exit the walls surrounding Camineet and head north.  
Follow the shoreline north all the way until it curves east.  Head east 
once you see the bend and you should see a cave.  Enter that cave.  
Before you head for the cave, make you sure you have either a flash, or 
better yet, a Magic Lamp.  Also, be sure to have at least 1000 spare 
mesetas.  That is how much the shortcake will cost.  Once in the cave, 
follow the directions below to head for the cake shop.

Once in, walk up a step and turn left.  You will see a locked door.  
Use your Dungeon Key and open it.  Once you open it, walk foward 2 
steps and turn into the break turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT into the break 
and head down the stairs.

Once down, walk foward and you should see a 2way split.  Make a LEFT at 
the split and walk foward. Ignore the break in the road that turns 
LEFT.  Keep walking foward until you see a 2 way split.  Turn RIGHT at 
this split and follow the path to the stairs.  Go down the stairs.

Walk foward and you will make a RIGHT turn around a corner.  Turn RIGHT 
and walk forward a few more steps.  You will make another RIGHT at 
another corner.  Turn RIGHT around the corner and walk forward 3 steps.  
You will now be at a 3 way split.  Turn LEFT at the 3 way split and 
follow the path to the stairs.   Go down the stairs.

Once down, turn RIGHT around the corner and walk foward.  When you see 
a break in the road turning RIGHT, turn RIGHT into it. When you turn 
into it, you will see a 2 way split.  Turn RIGHT at the split and 
follow the path to the cake shop. When you hit a door, you will know 
you have followed the directions correctly.  Open the door and buy the 
cake.  Exit the cave after.
=============================================================== 

Back to the Palman Spaceport

Now that you have your shortcake, head back to the Palma Spaceport near 
Camineet.  Rest up and then head to the spaceport.  
===============================================================

To the Governor...

Now that you're back in Motavia, head back to Paseo.  Once there, head 
into the small gray dome you see in the town.  That dome leads you to 
the governor's palace across the lake.  Enter the dome.  You will be in 
another dungeon. Follow the directions below to reach the governor.
=============================================================== 

Passageway to Paseo Palace...

This cave is very easy and very short.  There is only one way you can 
go.  Open the locked door with your Dungeon Key and follow the path.  
There are no splits or any divergences.  When you meet a Robotcop 
asking if you have a gift for the Governor, say "Yes". You will hand 
him the shortcake.  Proceed ahead and up the stairs. 
=============================================================== 

Meeting the Governor...

Once you've exited the tunnel, you will arrive at the island where the 
palace is located.  On this island, you will see a house to your right.  
If you go inside the house, the lady inside will heal you for free.  It 
is recommended that you do.  After you've healed up, head into the 
palace up north.  Inside, the governor awaits...
=============================================================== 

The Governor awaits...

When you step inside the palace, you will see the Governor sitting on 
his throne.  The governor will talk to you about a friend he has that 
lives in a cave north-west of Paseo. After a few words, he will give 
you a letter.  This letter is used to get Noah on your team.  After 
giving you the letter, the governor will ask you to rest.  The screen 
will fade black....You will now face your first boss... 
===============================================================

Boss Fight:  Saccubus  HP: 255      Skills:  Rope   Exp: 10  Mesetas: 0

Don't worry too much about this fight.  This boss is NOT REQUIRED.  In 
fact, chances are that you'll lose.  Your team must be very well 
leveled in order to beat the boss.  Around level 13-14 should do.  If 
your team is on this level, you should have no problems. If not, don't 
worry about it.  You don't have to win.  If you do win, you get a 
measly 10 Exp.
=============================================================== 

The Morning After...

Regardless at how the battle with Saccubus ended, you will end up back 
in the governor's palace alive and well.  You will have a brief 
conversation with him and then he will send you off to find Noah.  Once 
he does, leave the palace and go back into the tunnel to the other side 
of town.  Once there, exit Paseo by following the path leading LEFT.  
Follow that path LEFT then head UP past the 2 guards and exit the town.  
Exit the town then head north-west until you hit a cave in a narrow 
path surrounded by mountains.  That is the Naula Cave.  Before you 
leave, make sure you stock up on burgers. Also, make sure you buy a 
flash.  If you have already bought the Magic Lamp, then you don't need 
to buy the flash ever again.
=============================================================== 

The Naharu Cave: Finding Noah...

You will know you are in the right cave if it has a orange-ish color to 
it.  That is the cave you want to be in. If you are, follow these 
directions to head to Noah...

Once in the cave, walk forward a step. You will see a 2 way split.  
Turn RIGHT at the split and follow the path.  Make a RIGHT turn at the 
corner. Walk forward 2 steps and you will see a break in the road 
turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT into the break and you will see a 2 way split.  
Turn LEFT at this split and follow the path. Walk forward a few steps 
and you will turn LEFT around a corner. Turn LEFT and walk forward.  
Eventually, you will see a break in the road heading RIGHT.  Turn RIGHT 
into the break and you will see a 2 way split.  Turn RIGHT and follow 
the path. About 6 steps forward, you will reach another break turning 
RIGHT.  Turn RIGHT into the break and head down the stairs.

Once down the stairs, walk forward and turn LEFT around the corner. You 
will see a 2 way split.  Turn LEFT at the split and follow the path.  
You will hit a corner.  Turn LEFT around the corner and head straight. 
You will eventually see a break in the road heading LEFT.  Ignore that 
break and walk forward.  Eventually, you will see another break turning 
LEFT. Turn LEFT into the break and you will see a 2 way split.  Turn 
RIGHT at the split and then turn LEFT at the corner.  Walk forward a 
few steps and you will see a break in the road turning RIGHT.  Turn 
RIGHT into the break and you will be at a 2 way split.  Turn LEFT at 
the split and follow the path.  You will see a break in the road 
turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT into the break and you will see a 2 way split.  
Turn RIGHT at the split and then turn LEFT around the corner. Walk 
forward1 step and make a RIGHT around the corner. You will be at a 2 
way split.  Turn LEFT and walk forward a few steps.  You will see a 
break in the road turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT into the break and you will 
be at a 2 way split. Turn RIGHT at the split and follow the path. You 
will eventually reach a door. Open the door and you will meet Noah. 
Hand her the letter that the governor gave you and she will join your 
team. She will tell you about a town named Gothic and there's a tunnel 
in the Palman spaceport that leads there.  Exit the cave and head back 
to the Motavian Spaceport near Paseo.
=============================================================== 
 
Back at the Motavian Spaceport....

From the Naharu Cave, head back south to Paseo and to the spaceport.  
Get on a jet back to Palma.
=============================================================== 

The Palman Spaceport....

Now that you're back at Palma, leave the jets area past the guards.  
Instead of heading out of the spaceport, head towards the eastern path.  
You will see it leads down to a small orange cap on the ground.  That 
is the underground tunnel Noah was talking about.  Head into it.  You 
will now be in another dungeon... 
===============================================================

The Underground Tunnel...

This dungeon is very easy.  It only has one break and you don't need to 
go into it for now.  Just simply head straight to the other end.  Head 
up the stairs....
=============================================================== 

The Town of Gothic...

When you arrive, you will notice that Gothic is very poor.  The 
buildings are decaying and the people on the street dress in rags.  The 
townspeople you talk to ask if you can spare a cup of cola.  If you do, 
one of them will tell you that there is a famous doctor that lived in 
Gothic with his assistant.  But now the doctors locked up in the prison 
to the south of Gothic.  Knowing that, make any necessary preparations 
and head out of Gothic.
=============================================================== 

The Prison:  Finding Dr. Luveno...

Once out of Gothic, head south. Be very careful however.  If you 
accidentally walk south into a pyramid-like tower, (it's red inside), 
walk out immediately and head south more.  Eventually, if you went the 
right way, you will encounter a prison-like structure.  That is the one 
you want.  You will know its the right one because it is blue-ish gray 
inside.Enter the prison...

Once inside, follow these directions to reach Dr. Luveno.  There are no 
enemies inside.  To reach Dr. Luveno, walk forward until you reach a 
guard.  Talk to him, and then walk forward some more.  You will see a 
locked door.  Unlock it with your Dungeon Key and walk forward a bit. 
Turn RIGHT around the corner and you see a break in the road turning 
LEFT.  Ignore that break and walk forward.  You will now see a break to 
your RIGHT.  Ignore that break and walk forward.  Take 1 step and you 
will see a break in the road turning LEFT.  Ignore that break and walk 
forward 2 steps. You will now see a break in the road turning RIGHT.  
Turn RIGHT into the break and open the locked door.  He will not help 
you at first, but keep talking to him and he will eventually help you.  
He will tell you to meet him back at Gothic.  Exit the prison and walk 
back to Gothic. 
===============================================================

Dr. Luveno's Assistant...

Once back at Gothic, head into the house on the left near the center of 
the town.  You will have a small talk with Dr. Luveno.  He will tell 
you about his assistant, who is in the underground passage leading to 
Gothic from the Palma Spaceport. Now, you must find his assistant...

His assistant is hiding in the underground tunnel that you took from 
the Palman Spaceport to reach Gothic.  Head back into the house on the 
upper-right hand corner and you will be back in the tunnel.  Now that 
you're in, walk forward a few steps until you see a break in the road 
(it should be turning RIGHT from where you're facing).  Turn into the 
break and you'll see a door.  Open the door and speak with the 
assistant.  He will tell you that he will go up and help Dr. Luveno.  
Once he does this, head back to Gothic.  Go back and talk to Dr. Luveno 
and he will tell you that work can begin on the spaceship.  He will ask 
for a fee of 1000 meseta. Choose "Yes".  If you don't have enough, you 
will have to save up until you do.  You must pay this fee....
=============================================================== 

To Bortevo...

Dr. Luveno  told you about a robot he had a long time ago that can 
operate spaceships.  This robot's name is Hapsby.  He can be found in 
Bortevo, under one of the garbage heaps. Knowing that, you should now 
head off to Bortevo.

The walk to Bortevo will be a long one.  Make sure you're properly 
healed then exit Gothic.  Once out, head south. Keep heading south 
until you reach the southern shoreline.  Follow that shoreline west 
until you see it bend northwards. When you do, walk north.  Eventually, 
you will see a giant lava pit.  Walk north across the lava pit as quick 
as possible.  Each step you take in the lava will reduce your party's 
HP.  You may even encounter some enemies while you're walking in the 
lava.  Walk north and do not waste any time in the lava.

Once out of the lava, you will see there is a small village with a cave 
near it.  That town is Bortevo.  For now, ignore the town and head into 
the cave.  This cave will lead you to the other side of the lake you 
see.  Enter the cave....
===============================================================

Bortevo Cave: To Abion Island...

Once in the cave, follow the directions to head straight out of the 
cave to your next destination, Abion Island.

Walk FORWARD a few steps and you will see a break in the road turning 
LEFT.  Turn LEFT into this break and walk forward a few more steps.  
You will eventually see a break in the road turning RIGHT.  Turn RIGHT 
into the break and walk forward some more.  You will see another break 
in the road a few steps later turning LEFT.  Turn LEFT into this break 
and keep walking forward.  You will see breaks to your LEFT and RIGHT.  
Ignore these breaks and keep walking until you hit a corner turning 
RIGHT.  Turn RIGHT on this corner and follow the path straight.  
Eventually you will see stairs. Head up the stairs and exit the cave. 
===============================================================

The long walk to Abion...Loar Village

Now that you have made it out of the cave, head east and follow the 
beach line around the other side.   You will now have to walk a while 
in order to reach Abion.  On your way there, you will encounter a town 
called Loar.  This town doesn't hold anything important, but be sure to 
purchase the Silver Fang for Myau. It costs 1800 meseta, but don't 
leave until you get it.  It is Myau's best weapon so get it now.  Once 
all rested up and with the Silver Fang equipped, exit Loar.  Once out 
of Loar, just follow the path up north and to the west until you see 
another town.  That town is Abion... 
===============================================================

Abion:  The Mad Doctor...

Once in Abion, rest up, and head to the Armory Shop.  In there, you 
will notice some nice equipment being sold, the Laser Shield for 4800 
mesetas in particular.  If you have the money, buy one for Alis, Odin, 
and Noah. Next, head to the First Food Shop.  In there, you will see 
the usually burger and cola, but you will also see a new item, called 
Polymetryl. You must buy this item.  It is a very important item to the 
story and one of the two main reasons why you came to Abion.  It costs 
1800 mesetas.  If you don't have enough, just go out and fight until 
you do.  Once you have the Polymetryl, and have geared up your party, 
head to the left side of town. There you will see a gray dome.  Enter 
the dome...
===============================================================

To the Mad Doctor's Lab...

Once in the dungeon, follow the directions to reach the Mad Doctor's 
Lab.

When you first enter, you will see a break in the road turning LEFT.  
Ignore the break and walk forward.  Turn LEFT at the corner and walk 
forward some more.  Turn RIGHT around the next corner then LEFT 
immediately.  Walk forward a few steps and you will see a door.  Open 
the door.  

Once past the door, walk forward a few steps and you will see a break 
in the road turning RIGHT.  Turn RIGHT into the break and walk forward.  
Ignore any other breaks and head forward.  Turn LEFT once you hit the 
corner and head up the stairs.
===============================================================

The Fight with Dr. Mad...     

Once out of the dungeon, prepare your party and then enter the blue 
house on the island.  Inside, you will immediately encounter Dr. Mad.  
He will ask you to give him the cat.  Say "No" when he asks you to give 
him Myau.  If you do, he will kill Myau and you will have to fight him 
without Myau on your team.  This makes it much more difficult. Once you 
say "No", the fight ensues....
===============================================================

Boss Fight:  Dr. Mad     HP: 233   Skills: None  Exp: 15  Mesetas: 75  

This fight should be fairly simple given that you have Myau on your 
team.  The first thing you should do is use WALL.  Make Myau cast this 
spell and the fight is a breeze.  Wall will reduce the damage your 
party will take immensely.  If you don't cast Wall, Dr. Mad can kill 
each member in 1 or 2 hits.  

Once Wall is set up, have Alis and Odin attack, while Noah casts Wind, 
or any attack spell.  Make Myau attack whenever possible, but make Myau 
use CURE when needed.  After a few rounds, Dr. Mad will go down and he 
will leave a chest.  Open the chest and you will get the Laconian Pot.  
Exit the house and then head back into the dungeon and make your way 
back across the island.
===============================================================

Hapsby: The Robot Assistant...

Now that you have the Polymetryl, and have beaten Dr. Mad, head back to 
Bortevo (the town near the cave that you went through to get to Abion 
Island).  It's quite along walk back to Bortevo from Abion, but luckily 
it's straightforward.  Once you reach the cave again, go through it 
again back to the other side (Bortevo side).  Now, with Polymetryl in 
hand, head to the village of Bortevo (near the cave).
===============================================================

The Village of Bortevo:  Search for Hapsby...

Once in Bortevo, head into the house with the blue door. It is one of 
the first houses.  Make sure you save the game right when you get to 
Bortevo.  If you happen to use Polymetryl on the wrong pile of junk, 
you will have to go back to Abion and get another one. Save before 
doing anything.

Once yousaved, head into the house with the blue door.  Inside you will 
see a pile of junk. Search your item list for Polymetryl and use it.  
If it is the correct pile of junk, it will dissapear and Hapsby the 
robot will appear.  He will tell you to go back to Gothic.  Hapsby is a 
permanent item in your item list.  Head back to Gothic.
===============================================================

Back to Gothic...

Once back at Gothic, head back to Dr. Luveno's house.  He will tell you 
the ship is ready.  Now, head to the WESTERN edge of the town.  You 
will see a man blocking a small exit path.  Go up to him and he will 
now let you through.  Once you pass him, keep walking LEFT and you will 
see your new spaceship.  Go into the spaceship and you will see Hapsby 
waiting for you.  Hapsby will as you where do you want to go.  You may 
choose any of the three choices, but to continue on with the story, 
choose Uzo.  
===============================================================

The Luveno:  Destination Uzo on Motavia...
