Welcome to NGB and our complete guide for Baten Kaitos Cebalrai, the Farming Hamlet. Here we’ll cover each story section that takes place in the hamlet, shops and what they offer, along with any favors you can complete for additional rewards.

Baten Kaitos Cebalrai Story – After Waking up

When Kalas first wakes up, he’ll find himself laying on a bed. Speak with the doctor Larikush to learn how you ended up here. Before leaving the room that Kalas wakes up in, speak with the red-headed girl. Exhaust her dialog options to get some information on things like healing efficiently, how to earn money and to learn more about the doctor. Exit the Doctor’s Office to arrive in a courtyard filled with animals. Head to the blue flower on the left side of the area to trigger an event where you’ll learn how to use blue flowers to save.

Once that’s done, interact with the flower and select “Visit the church” to travel to the church. Speak with the Priest in the back by the altar and exhaust his dialog options to learn about leveling up and increasing class levels. When you’re finished, return to the blue flower and interact with it choosing “Return to adventure” to head back to Cebalrai. Before making your way to the main part of the village, speak with the girl wearing the pink dress in the courtyard. She’ll mention that you should visit the mayor. He has something to say to Kalas.

Head left past the blue flower to reach the main area of the village. Proceed to the center of this area to trigger an event with a boy and Meemai. When it ends, head north then through the doorway there to reach the mayor’s house. Speak with him and he’ll invite Kalas to stay in the village as long as he needs while also insisting that he stays away from the Moonguile Forest. when you’ve finished talking to the mayor, examine the bookshelf in the back-left corner of the room to receive a Fire Burst Lv. 1 Magus card. You can this exit the building.

Back in the main part of the village, head south towards the bridge with Meemai. Speak with the blonde girl standing on the bridge to trigger another event. Afterward exit the village. You may want to save again at the blue flower before doing so. There is also a shop in the building to the left of the bridge you can visit to stock up on supplies. You can find the list of items the shop contains in the Baten Kaitos Cebalrai Shop section further down in the guide.

When you reach the world map, head west to reach Moonguile Forest.

Baten Kaitos Cebalrai Story – Post Moonguile Forest

Following the events of Moonguile Forest, Larikush will be on the bridge waiting for Kalas and will bring you to the mayor’s house. You’ll catch them up on what happened in the forest to which the mayor is none too pleased. One of the villagers will mention seeing a ship pass by heading towards the city giving us our next destination. Before setting out, stop by Larikush’s place (where Kalas first woke up) in the hamlet. Speak with him and he’ll ask Kalas for a favor. A landside in Nunki Valley has blocked that path to Pherkad (our next destination) and he would like us to take some explosives there and use them to clear the landslide. He’ll then show you how to turn stuff into magnus then he’ll give you 4 blank cards and task you with bringing him an apple to try it out. Exit his house to find a lady standing next to two barrels of apples in the courtyard. Interact with the apples then press “Sure!” when prompted to seal their magna essence in a blank card.

Head back into Larikush’s house and speak with him to hand over the apple. As a reward, he’ll give you a Magnus: Ice Dagger. With that out of the way, interact with the explosives on the nearby table to seal their essence in one of the cards then leave the doctor’s residence.

Now might be a good time to save, so visit the blue flower and do so. While you’re there, use the flower to visit the church and speak with the priest in the back. Use the pray option to level and class up. Leveling up with make Kalas stronger and classing up will allow you to carry 5 extra cards in your deck, boost your max combo to 3 and also allow you to carry 4 cards at a time in battle. After you’ve finished, head back to the blue flower. This will trigger an event where the Elder will call out to you. Speak with him and he’ll ask Kalas for a favor. The elder will ask Kalas to keep an eye out for fragments of the star map on his journey in hopes to see the star map completed before he fades away. You’ll will need to find all 50 of them scattered around the world in the form of Constellation Magnus to make this dream a reality. You’ll also be rewarded for each fragment that you find. Use the blue flower to return to Cebalrai.

Before heading to Nunki Valley, there are a couple of things you can do. First, head to the shop and sell any of the pictures you’ve taken to acquire some money. There are also a couple of favors (see Baten Kaitos Cebalrai Favors section below) you can complete. You’ll also want to head back to the Moonguile Forest and complete the favor for the Man wearing a Bracelet there. Once all of that has been done, travel to the Nunki Valley via world map.

by NightlyGamingBinge in

Welcome to NGB and our complete guide for Baten Kaitos Moonguile Forest. Here we’ll cover the story section of the game that takes place in Moonguile Forest, any items you can find while exploring, the enemies calling the area home along with their weakness and resistances and any favors you can complete in the area.

Baten Kaitos Moonguile Forest Items

The items listed below can be found around Moonguile Forest, so make sure to keep an eye out for them.

  • Area with the Archways
    • Magnus: Flame Sword
    • Magnus: Fire Burst Lv. 1
  • Lord of the Spring Room
    • Magnus: Escape

The Ice Dagger in the second area is located behind a log blocking access to it. Once you learn to seal the essence of items in blank cards, you can interact with the fireplace in the mayor’s house at Cebalrai. This will get you the fire you need to burn away the fallen log. You can’t do this until you defeat the Lord of the Spring.

Baten Kaitos Moonguile Forest Story

When you arrive at Moonguile Forest, Kalas will find himself in a cave. He’ll also be accompanied by two bat enemies and there we’ll be an item on the left side (Magnus: Voice Lv. 1). Grab it then head north through the illuminated pathway. This will bring you outside near a river. Nearby, there will be a guy sitting near a log. Speak with him then exhaust his dialog options to get a crash course on combat. When you’ve finished, go north along the river passing through a slightly concealed cave. There will be an item (Magnus: Leather Hat) on the other side for you to collect.

Just past the guy sitting on the ground near a log, there will be another log on the right preventing you find getting the item behind you. You won’t be able to collect this item until after you complete the story section here and return to Cebalrai. You’ll then need to progress the story until Larikush teaches you how to use blank cards.

Backtrack a bit then cross the river and head south to find another item (Magnus: Bamboo Shoot). Go north along the river to reach the next area of the forest. Make sure you are prepared, as you are about to face a mini boss.

In the next area, a cutscene will trigger involving the blonde girl you met in the village and her companions. This will lead to a fight where she and Kalas will team up against a Sabre Dragon. The beast will resist any fire attacks you send its way but is also weak to water. Use that to your advantage to take it down. Also make sure to snag a picture of the dragon that you can sell later! After the Sabre Dragon falls, another cutscene will trigger. The girl will introduce herself as Xelha and decide to tag along to the ancient ruins.

When you regain control of Kalas, proceed to the next area of Moonguile Forest. When you arrive, head left through the archways to find an item (Magnus: Flame Sword) at the end. Backtrack to the first archway and follow the path north around the area towards the red flower. Along the way, to the east of flower you’ll be able to grab another item (Magnus: Fire Burst Lv. 1). Make sure to use the red flower to save when you reach it along with healing up as necessary. There is a boss fight coming up in the next area!

Baten Kaitos Moonguile Forest Boss Fight

Head to the next area to trigger a cutscene during which the Lord of the Spring will appear. After some dialog it will then attack the party. The Spring Lord uses water-based attacks which means it also resists water. To deal extra damage, use fire-based moves to hit its weak point. One thing to watch out for is its 4 attack combo that typically ends with a big attack dealing around 50 damage total. Also make sure to snag a picture of the creature to sell later. When the creature falls, another cutscene will trigger. After it concludes, you’ll be back at the world map. Return to Cebalrai!

Help the Man with a Bracelet Catch the Bluebirds

Baten Kaitos Moonguile Forest Man with a Bracelet Catch the Bluebird of Happiness

After dealing with the Lord of the Spring, return to the area with the red flower to find a Man with a Bracelet near the stone archway. Speak with him to learn that he’s a professor of zoology who can communicate with animals. He is here trying to catch a Bluebird of Happiness and asks Kalas to lend a hand. If you agree, he’ll give you a bit more information saying that he’s always dreamed of stuffing one of those birds. To catch the birds in his trap, you’ll need to head to the red flower. Along the way, the birds will fly in the wrong direction causing the man to yell at you. Next, either battle the Shawra flying around near the flower or enter the area where you fought the Lord of the Spring then comeback. This will reset the bluebirds allowing you to walk past their nest in way sending them towards the Man with a Bracelet.
