Baldo The Guardian Owls – Rodia Library Books

by Chappie in

 

If you didn’t want to purchase all the books in the Rodia Library, you can still obtain their knowledge by browsing the below! There are extremely helpful tips and tricks for making progress in Baldo The Guardian Owls! Please note that some of the tips contain spoilers.

 

The following are the books found on the first floor of the library:

 

Castle Guards

Rodia castle is protected by guards day and night. They take it in turns, so there are always guards patrolling. There are strict orders that the guards have to follow on their rounds… in the garden: these orders were set in stone by the captain of the guards. They always have to follow the same route, which is shown on this map.

 

Dogs and their behavior

Dogs are beloved creatures that have been people’s best friends since time immemorial. People and dogs share love and affection, but dogs can also perform helpful tasks, which they really enjoy doing. They’re perfect for… tending flocks of sheep: sheep can be quite stubborn at times. Dogs also love bones, and they sometimes get into the cemetery and try to dig up interesting things.

 

Flora’s Inn

Rodia has a wealth of different shops, but there’s also a famous inn run by a kindhearted woman called Rina. The inn was named in honor of… Flora, the forest spirit and mother of the bobos, who looks after all the creatures of nature. At this inn weary travelers can rest a while, letting time pass to skip between day and night. Who knows if there are other inns elsewhere in the land?

 

Minisio’s Shops, and where to find them

This map shows the locations of all Minisio’s Shops throughout the land.

 

Ranotto the Minstrel

Ranotto is one of the oddest creatures in the land. Nobody knows where he came from or when he was born. Some say he was always here in this land. He is very knowledgeable, and can… be found in many places. It’s said he used to sing with the owls, and that’s how he learned the ancient songs. He’s known for his wonderful Song of The Wind, but there’s another song he keeps secret: only a privileged few have heard him sing the Eye of the Mind Song, which allows the singer to remember what they have seen and capture an image of it. Keep the image as a reminder of anything interesting or useful. Ranotto can often be found in Naneko Town, by the waterfall.

 

Rodia Cemetery & Tero

Rodia is famous for its old cemetery, where the tombs of the oldest and most important… families are situated. The grave keeper is a man called Tero, who is also well known for his collection of rare and precious golden items of Rodia. He is always on the lookout for more rare items to collect. He used to be an explorer, and he amassed an impressive collection on his travels. He was also warden of the Bobo Temple in Sinaro Meadow, and Savoca Prison in Kidoge Village.

 

Scarecrows

Scarecrows are great. A mannequin in the shape of a human, usually dressed like an old man, placed in an open field. Everybody knows they try to… stop birds eating newly planted seeds and crops, but not everybody knows that they also keep secrets! Legend has it that you can play a mystical tune on a magical instrument to wake up a scarecrow, who might be able to reveal a long-forgotten secret.

 

The Lost Royal Item

Legend has it that a rare item that belonged to the Royal Family was lost long ago, when a thief tried to steal it… The thief was caught by the guards and put in jail, where he died of a rare illness he had contracted in the Gaziri Swamp. He had a note with him, revealing the location of the missing item. According to the note, the item is still in the castle, hidden in a chest in the attic. He also wrote that the key to open the attic is hidden in one of the wardrobes in the princess’s room. Nobody knows how the thief knew where the attic key was hidden.

 

The Lost Woods & the Forgotten Path

There is a magical place called Muccia Forest. Once upon a time, there were a variety of different ways to enter these Lost Woods, but they have been forgotten over the decades. However, there is one passage that is still open: follow the path… behind Maneko’s house, but be careful: even if you know the way, you can still get lost all too easily.

 

The race

Rodia is also renowned for its runners! They can run faster than anyone else in the land, training hard from childhood, but there is a way to beat them… It’s vital to be well prepared for a race, and Scatia Mushrooms on their own may not be enough to beat the best time: runners are well advised to purchase a Yellow potion, half bottle from Kidoge shops before accepting the challenge.

 

The Secret Passages of Rodia

Rodia Town was built hundreds of years ago, and it’s full of secrets and shortcuts that lead almost everywhere. Everybody knows that… the well outside Rodia leads to the sewers, where you can get to the center of the town, but there’s also a secret underground passage that leads to the garden of the Royal Castle. The entrance is hidden behind Odessa the herbalist’s house. It was built to allow members of the Royal family to sneak in and out of the castle without being noticed. It is said there is another passage that leads to the second garden of the Castle, allowing access to the Abandoned Royal Mansion.

 

The following are the books found on the second floor of the library:

 

Abandoned Savoca Prison

There is an abandoned prison on the lower side of Kidoge along the path to the Ridijo Canyon. Savoca Prison was an old Owl Tower that lost its mystical powers and… was used to house prisoners. It was then closed down, and locked to stop people going in and getting lost in the depths of its dungeons. Tero the grave keeper has the key.

 

Bobos

One of the most common legends of this land relates to the bobo. These lovely pure creatures live in the woods, mostly around… the Bobo Pit, in the depths of the land. They are creatures born of pure nature spirits, but they can be dangerous if they become corrupted by the darkness. They’re usually small and cute, but if they become corrupted they take on the form of huge monsters that are extremely sensitive to sound. They can’t be beaten when they’re standing, so they need to be knocked down by throwing something at them, and then attacked while they’re on the ground, until they revert to their primal form: a Bobo seed. Only Flora can turn them back to their original sweet selves and restore balance.

 

Invisibility Potions

It isn’t easy to get hold of a decent invisibility potion, and only practised hands can hope to prepare it successfully. Even then, the potion requires special ingredients to be used in the preparation. There is only one… place in the entire land where these ingredients can be found: the Gaziri Swamp up by the Ridijo Canyon. The only way to reach the swamp is going under the bridge that connects Sinaro Meadow with the Garudo Rocks.

 

Kangmis, and where to find them

Kangmis are huge, dangerous creatures. These monstrous beasts are exceptionally hard to kill. They live in the… Leone Heights, and only the brave and well prepared stand a chance against them. Their fur is perfect for making a special coat to protect the wearer from the cold. They’re hard to track down, but it’s said they can be found in the areas marked on the map. Preparation is key to defeating a yeti: yeti hunters will need a good, strong iron shield. Iron shields are available in Rodia and at Moiro’s Carnival. It won’t make the task easy, by any means, but with the right shield and skill, the Kangmi can be beaten.

 

Maneko The Witch

Maneko, the third witch triplet, has set up her home in a remote area… in the Solino Valley, where she prepares magic potions with her apprentices, Camuria the son of the King of the cats, and Maria. They prepare invisibility potions and freeze potions. The latter are available for purchase at any time, but invisibility potions require particular ingredients before they can be prepared.

 

Naneko Town, and where to find it

There’s a place called Naneko Town where cats live peacefully ahem, far from humans and other creatures. It’s located… in the northwest of Dry Land. Cats don’t usually talk to humans, but Maneko the witch may have a solution for that.

 

Orbs, and where to buy them

Orbs are available throughout the land. You can find them almost everywhere, but there’s only one place where you can buy them if you run out:… it the Bobo Woods. Just go into the Bobo Woods and follow the upper ring: the shop is on the bottom left side.

 

Owl Towers

Built in a long-forgotten time, the Owl Towers stand everywhere throughout the land. Legend has it that they were built to house the powerful… runes of the Guardian Owls. The Wise Owls created 6 different weapons long ago. 4 pieces of the same rune are required to restore power to the related weapon. The owls still have some of the weapons, but others have been lost, or are in the hands of traders. Each weapon has great powers, and increases the skill of the warrior who wields them.

 

Rodia Tower Tour

There’s an ancient Owl Tower in Rodia. You can admire it from Odessa’s house, near the statue of Cacia. It was there before Rodia was built, and it’s difficult to get to, but there is a way to visit it… The fisherman of Rodia organize a tour to the Owl Tower. You just need to buy a ticket from the ticket seller on the dock and bring it to the fisherman’s shop at the end of the dock. He takes passengers to the Tower on his boat.

 

The God of the Forest

This is a land of many legends. While some are just rumors, others seem to have an element of truth. The most famous legend tells of RAMO, the God of the Forest, an ancient creature who… protects the woods and the creatures who dwell therein. He has been alive since the dawn of time, borne witness to countless events, and fought endless battles to maintain the balance of all things in nature. He lives on top of the mountain next to the Owl Village in the Pansa Hills. You can find him by following the blue butterflies you can see on the way to the Dinna mountains. He is Flora’s father, and is privy to her secrets.

 

The Owl Village

There’s a secret place where the Guardian Owls lived at the dawn of time. It’s situated… at the top of the Pansa Hills on a cold mountain. The village is hidden from human eyes, but its location can be revealed by finding the 2 Owl Keys and putting them in the right place. Legend has it that one of the keys was entrusted to the Royal Family, and is held in their castle for protection, hidden behind the wall of knowledge.

 

The Royal Family & the Princess

Rodia is the largest town in the land, and it is ruled over by princess… Luna, descendant of the Royal Family of Maluna, the great Queen. This family traces its roots back to the days when the Guardian Owls lived amongst the humans. The Royal army helped the Owls defeat the no-heart creature, Naroco. When the battle was over, the Owls entrusted the family with a wealth of precious items and weapons, to be kept secret and far from prying eyes. Princess Luna lives in the new castle behind the garden.

 

The Runes of Power

The Guardian Owls created these runes to increase the strength of the warrior who collects them. The runes can be found in… caves or wells throughout the land. You need 3 pieces to increase your energy by one unit. Find them and bring them back to the Wise Owl in the Owl Village, who knows how to manipulate them to turn them into an extra heart for your energy.

 

The Takame Shield

This is the ultimate shield. It was made with the shell of the legendary tortoise Ruga, who lived many years ago. It was thought to be lost forever but… Conci, the shield seller of Kidoge, found it a long time ago in the depths of the Gaziri Swamp. Its powers are dormant at the moment, but there is a way to reactivate them: you need to collect all 4 pieces of the Takame Shield rune. 3 are hidden in the Owl Towers that can be found throughout the land, but 1 piece was found by Conci’s cousin in Rodia. Her shield shop is in the center of the town. Try reading rare books to find out where the 3 lost runes might be located.

 

The Three Witch Sisters

Rodia has a long history of witches, who would offer their services to the local population. The most famous living witches are the Three Sisters:… Odessa, Ursula, and Maneko. They are each skilled in different arts. Odessa is a herbalist: she knows all about growing magical flowers and plants. Ursula is a miller: she lives in Solino Valley, and specializes in the creation of precious magical powders that make even rare and mysterious plants grow and bloom in an instant. Maneko is an animal witch: she creates magical potions and a variety of concoctions, some of which make people invisible for a short period of time. She lives in the northeast of Solino Valley, far away from people, as she prefers the company of animals and magical creatures.

 

Windmills, and where to find them

There are windmills scattered throughout the land. Some of them are quite well hidden, but there’s… a map you can consult to find them all.

 

The below are the books found through the door on the second floor of the library. They are all tips for the Savoca Prison dungeon!

 

Symbols

In the prison, there are different symbols… near the entrance. They are important to ensure everything is in the right place. There are 3 symbols, on the first floor of the prison and on the ground of the hidden rooms near the entrance.

 

The Bobo Statue of Fire

Everything needs to be in the right place to solve the mystery of this room… The statue needs to be placed by the correct symbols to access the triangle key that is in the chest at the top of the stairs.

 

The Lost Bobos

There are 3 lost bobos in a room… they’re keeping an important secret: if you revert them to their original form, a chest with a key will be revealed.

 

The Switch and the Gates

In the deepest depths of Savoca Prison there’s a room with a river, and cages hanging above, with four switches on the ground… There’s only one way to solve the puzzle: all the switches need to be turned the right way.

 

The Three Cages

There are a lot of rooms in Savoca Prison, but only one has 3 open cages… where the skeletons of dead prisoners return from the afterlife in perpetuity: keep them locked in their cages to unlock the room.

 

The Water

Some sections of the prison are submerged under water… the water level can be controlled with a lever, situated in the east side of the Prison Changing the water level allows access to rooms of the prison that would otherwise be inaccessible, including the room where the Sacred Fire is stored. Remember, sometimes making an area accessible means another area will become inaccessible – like the room where the triangle key is stored.

 

To reach the below book, you must have acquired the Sacred Fire from Savoca’s Prison. Use the fire to burn the webs.

 

Aratna, the Savoca Prison Guardian

Aratna is located in the depths of Savoca Prison. She is an enormous, terrifying creature, who protects the secrets of the Prison. She is difficult to kill, but there is a way to do it… she isn’t afraid of fire, but a large blaze can hurt her. You need to pull down her web-nest and light the brazier near the door: the resulting inferno will hurt her if she gets close to it.

 

To access this part of the library, head up to the second level and light the brazier using your fire.

This will reveal a hidden entrance behind the bookshelf. Head through it and follow the path to reach the section of the library containing the following books:

 

Cacia, the Great Architect

Cacia the architect who was responsible for designing and constructing most of the buildings in Rodia Town. A statue near Odessa’s house was erected in his honor. He hasn’t been seen since… he was spotted near the Bobo Temple outside Rodia Town in Sinaro Meadow at night, accompanied by his daughter.

 

Cacia’s Assistant

Cacia had an assistant called… Topazzo, a citizen of Jacu Oasis, a tribe of builders and explorers who live at an oasis in the middle of the Marui Desert. Getting through the desert isn’t easy: it’s hot during the day and cold at night. Topazzo’s daughter lives and works in the southeast of Jacu Oasis, and can often be found walking around the village at night.

 

Flora, the Spirit of the Forest, and where to find her

There are many legends about the spirits of the land, and the ancient creatures living there. One such legend tells of the spirit of the forest, Flora. She is… kind and compassionate, and her task is to maintain the balance of nature energy. She is the mother of the bobos, and she takes care of every living creature in the land. She lives in the Bobo Woods, but you can find her in other places as well: legend has it that wherever there are blue butterflies, Flora will be nearby.

 

Horbia Tree

Muccia Forest, the Lost Woods

 

Saraia, how to bring her back to life

Before disappearing long ago, Saraia, whose ghost haunts the Bobo Temple, used to play in the… Rodia cemetery with Tero. Legend has it that lights appear on the graves of Rodia at night: turning the lights on in the same pattern in The Misty woods temple will bring Saraia’s spirit back to life.

 

Saraia, the Ghost of the Bobo Temple

Legend tells of the ghost of Saraia, Cacia’s daughter. Her ghost has frequently been sighted at… the Bobo Temple. Tero the grave keeper was a good friend of hers when he was a child, and he has always remembered how much she loved blue flowers.

 

Secrets of The Misty woods

The Misty woods are located on the west side of the Bobo Temple, and are full of secrets. In the woods there’s a… temple, with a mysterious maze that holds an important item used to increase your strength. The only way in is by ringing the bells at the entrance of the temple in the right order.

 

Symbols of the Sewers

Only those who know the right symbol can enter the final section of the sewers, and the symbol is… reported here.

 

The Bobo Temple

Just outside Rodia there’s an abandoned Bobo Temple, dedicated to the spirits of the forest. It’s situated at… the entrance to Sinaro Meadow. The entrance of the Bobo Temple was locked a long time ago to protect the site from treasure hunters.

 

The Bobo Temple and the Crypt Entrance

The Bobo Temple has another level underground, where many secrets are hidden. There’s only one way in: at… night, turn the mirrors to redirect the moonlight onto the right spot on the statue to reveal the switch that opens the way to the crypt. Be warned: no humans can press this switch.

 

The Lost Temple

The chronicles speak of an ancient temple lost in a remote part of this land. You can find a map for it in one of Minisio’s Map Shops, but reports say it was located in… the northeast side of Sinaro Meadow. Two brothers from Kidoge found the ruins a long time ago, and they know the location. It is said that the temple hidden within can’t be opened without a key, which may be in the possession of one of the brothers.

 

The Path to The Misty woods Temple

It’s always hard to find the right way through a maze, and easy to get lost at every turn. That’s why a map was drawn up to… help locate the most important secret within. Morse secrets appear every time you go in, but nobody knows where or when you’ll find them.

 

The Sewers, an intricate web of secrets

During the construction of Rodia, or perhaps dating back even earlier, an intricate network of tunnels was built, linking various locations inside and outside of Rodia town…Everybody knows that the well outside Rodia leads to the sewers, and then on to the center of the town, but there’s also a hidden underground passage leading from just behind Odessa the Herbalist’s house to the garden of the Royal Castle. Ancient texts speak of another secret tunnel from the Bobo Temple to Rodia, and a path that leads from the center of Rodia to the gardens behind the Castle of Rodia, offering access to the Abandoned Royal Mansion. Some of these secret paths allowed members of the Royal family to sneak in and out of the castle without being noticed.

 

Water Levels and Crates

Some sections of the sewers are water storage tanks, but these tanks can also be used to… create a route to different sections of the labyrinthine sewers. The main tank is controlled by a lever that moves the water up and down into the two secondary tanks. Lower the water level to use the crate to reconnect the sewer sections, following this diagram.

 

To reach the next area, push the stone to the west to reveal a hidden entrance behind a nearby bookshelf.

You’ll find the following books:

 

Desert Clothes

It’s hard to explore the Marui Desert during the day, due to the searing heat, so you have to be well prepared. There is something that can help: a special item of clothing… This garment is made by the denizens of Jacu, great explorers, but also renowned as exceptional tailors. Their clothes are highly resistant to heat, but you can only buy them in Jacu Oasis. They aren’t cheap, but members of the exclusive Jacu Oasis Club have access to special discounts.

 

Diamonds

An explorer in Jacu Oasis is looking for diamonds, and there’s only one way to collect them: by… defeating the dangerous Rock Demons you encounter throughout the land. These are the places where they can be found.

 

Flora: where she could be without her powers

Flora is extremely powerful, but she can be deprived of her power if she’s imprisoned in… a place far from the forest and close to the sea. For example, the Rodia Lighthouse. Arturo was a great friend of hers, and despite it being a dangerous place for her, she used to go there to talk to him when he was alive.

 

Inside the Lighthouse, the Hidden Key

At the top of the Lighthouse stairs there’s a room. You need the key to get in, and the lighthouse keeper used to… hide it inside one of the jars in one of the rooms near the main entrance to the lighthouse.

 

Jacu Oasis Club

The citizens of Jacu take their exploration abilities extremely seriously. You’ll need to prove your skills before being accepted as a member of the exclusive Jacu Oasis Club. There’s only one way… to prove yourself: locate the bones of the ancient desert snake. It is said that they lie somewhere in the Marui Desert to the south of Jacu Oasis, and can be found by following the dark stones on the sand. If you manage to find them, activate the teleport to prove it.

 

Need for Cheese

The citizens of Jacu Oasis just can’t get enough cheese, but they aren’t able to produce their own, because farming is so difficult in the desert. However,… there is a way to help them get the cheese they love so much. Buy eggs in Kidoge, or come across them elsewhere if you’re lucky, and bring them to the dairy in Rodia near the dock: they trade eggs for cheese.

 

Rodia Owl Tower

The Owl Tower Museum of Rodia stands at the end of the longest bridge on the west side of the center of town. It was the house of the king of the owls, Gokuro, and… there’s a secret path that leads into the tower. Legend has it that, at night, the moonlight coming through the windows shines on the floor, revealing the way to open it.

 

Rodia: the Order of the Jars

In the center of Rodia there’s a man trying to put the jars in the right order, but… he carries one with him, so it’s impossible to solve this puzzle during the day when he’s around. At night, all the jars are available to be placed on the correct places on the ground. You have to place a jar on each tile with a triangle symbol.

 

Secondary Castle Garden

Rodia castle has two gardens, one in front and one at the back. It isn’t possible to access the rear garden from the front, but… there’s a secret passage leading to the center of the garden. During the day there are no guards, so you can study the route carefully, but the entrance to the Abandoned Royal Mansion is always protected at night. These guards don’t follow a set route, but you can distract them at night by throwing a jar, and then sneaking past, into the Abandoned Royal Mansion.

 

The 4 Living Suits of Armor

There’s a room in the Abandoned Royal Mansion with 4 differently colored suits of armor that come to life when you turn the lights on. You can’t destroy them… at radom: you have to follow the correct order. There’s a room with statues the same colors as the 4 suits of armor. Move the statues to reveal the correct order, which is as follows: Blue, Black, Green, Red.

 

The Abandoned Royal Mansion: the Hidden Path of the Tiles

The Abandoned Royal Mansion holds more than its fair share of secrets and puzzles: one of the trickiest is finding the right path over the tiles. You can… follow the pattern on the floor of a balcony outside, or you can use this diagram.

 

The Abandoned Royal Mansion: What’s Behind the Mirrors?

The Abandoned Royal Mansion is a dangerous place, with twisted rooms that aren’t always as they first appear. It’s important to… keep an eye on the reflection of the mirrors in the twisted rooms. That which can’t be seen with the naked eyes is always present in the mirrors.

 

The Blacksmith’s Basement

In Rodia there’s a skilled blacksmith. He normally works tirelessly, but these days he can’t seems to light his furnace… The two burners in the basement have been turned off somehow, and he can’t fix them because it’s a two-man job, one has to be upstairs to take care of the furnace, the other one downstairs to turn them on. When they’re both working, direct the flow of both flames along the primary duct into the pipe room, or the main burner won’t be activated.

 

The Light Keeper

Rodia has a famous Lighthouse situated on the west side of the dock. It was run by Arturo, the old keeper. He died recently, and… his grave is under Rodia cemetery, in pride of place, surmounted by a fountain. He was a member of one of the oldest families of Rodia. Move the stones near the fountain to find a way to get into his tomb, but he won’t appear until you have his family crest, which he gave to RAMO a long time ago.

 

The Marui Desert: the 4 pillars

In the southwest of the Marui Desert there’s a square on the ground with 4 pillars surmounted with balls. You need… to place the Owl jar in the center. Here’s a map to located the nearest jar.

 

The Marui Desert: the 6 Statues

In the southwest of the Marui Desert there are 6 bobo statues that need… to be completed with the nearby Owl jar. Some of them are hard to find: here’s a map.

 

The Sacred Owl Temple

The Guardian Owls built their most important, most majestic temple in a remote location, far from civilization. It’s… in the northeast of the Marui Desert. Records suggest it can be found by going east from Jacu Oasis and following the signs.

 

The Secret of the Abandoned Royal Mansion

There’s a powerful ancient item in the Abandoned Royal Mansion behind the Castle. The King hid a special weapon there, called… the Owl Bomb. This sphere is a technological marvel. The wise owls crafted it to create explosive bombs using the energy of the Orb. It can break crumbly rocks and some wooden obstacles, damage enemies, and move levers at a distance. It is hidden in the depths of the Abandoned Royal Mansion.

 

The Sun Umbrella Business

A businessmouse in Jacu Oasis had an idea: rent sun umbrellas to mice all across the land. This is where… they are situated.

 

The Top of the Lighthouse

There’s only one way to open the final… passage to where Flora is imprisoned: turn the 3 levers in the right order.

 

The two brothers of Kidoge

These two brothers are famous for discovering a… lost temple. There were explorers, but now they’re old and their memory is fading. One brother still lives in Kidoge, but the other one ended up living in Rodia, because he forgot how to get back home. Every night he waits for his brother at the central fountain. Show him the way home with a Minisio map of Kidoge, and then meet the two brothers again in Kidoge, at the fountain.

 

To reach the next area of the library, you’ll need to have the Owl Bomb. Throw the bomb at the broken section of wall on the western side of the room to find the following books: 

 

Bakery & Rats

Rats are everywhere, especially under the bakery, but they’re difficult to deal with down there, because… there are holes in the walls that allow them to keep reappearing. You need to cover every single hole in the room to stop the rats getting in.

 

Camuria the Apprentice

Camuria is Maneko’s apprentice, but he’s also the Prince of the cats, so he’s been targeted by the rat tribe that lives… under the bakery in the center of Rodia. The entrance to their headquarters is usually covered by a crate. The King in Naneko Town knows the reason for the feud between rats and cats.

 

The Bobo Pit: Giant Leaves

When you’re activating the main switch, if you want to reach the end of the Pit, you have to… place the bomb under the switch and run away to the other side before it explodes. This will change the status of the leaves on the lower floor and allow you to reach places that were previously impossible to get to, and let you restore a path that otherwise could not be taken.

 

The Bobo Pit: The Blue Ghost Light

There is a room on the south side of the upper circle room where there is a blue ghost light when you enter. It’s vital that you… don’t kill any bobos in this room until you’ve put the gravestone back in its original place, and the first Bobo Ghost appears.

 

The Bobo Pit: The Interior Wind Switch

The Pit is an intriguing labyrinth of rooms and floors. It isn’t easy to find your way around, but it’s really important to understand that… turning the wind on and off alters the giant leaves, changing the available routes. The main switch in the Pit is in the room above, and you need to place the statue in the correct position.

 

The Bobo Pit: The Lower Bridges

Down in the depths of the Pit there’s a room with suspension bridges and giant leaves. You need to… turn off the wind, push the statue in front of the big hole, and then turn the wind on again. The wind will push the block down and open the gate.

 

The Gokuro Tower: How to Get In

As the guardian says, the earthquake blocked the entrance, but there’s another little-known way in. On the path that leads to the… Library, there’s a crate under the Moon sign, concealing the secret entrance to The Gokuro Tower.

 

The Gokuro Tower: Suspension Bridges

There’s a room that can be accessed by turning the large wooden structure. In this room there are suspension bridges and levers that can alter the path. You have to… find the jar that needs to be placed on the switch to solve the room puzzle.

 

The Gokuro Tower: The Final Path

To enter the final room at the top of the tower, you need to… set the number 3 lever that turns the 3 wooden turnstiles to allow you to reach the entrance. These levers are made available by solving the 3 rooms that can be accessed by turning the large wooden structure.

 

The Gokuro Tower: The Night and its Secrets

The time of day is important in The Gokuro Tower. Place… the statue in the center of the room at the top of the tower to reflect the moonlight and release the trapped King Gokuro.

 

The Owl Village, the Path of Fire

There’s a room in the Owl Village temple were braziers have to be lit in the right order. Very few people know where to find the right order, which will… unlock the final room. During the day, place the statue in the room at the top of The Gokuro Tower, so that it reflects the sunlight, revealing the passage to the secret room where you can find the correct order to activate the path of fire.

 

The Pure Flower

In the depths of the Bobo Woods, there are what are known as Pure Flowers. They don’t grow easily, only Odessa in Kidoge has a Pure Flower, but… her flower is too young, and it won’t be able to restore the balance in its current state. To get it to bloom you need the Dust of Renewing, ground by Ursula the miller in the Solino Valley. She’ll need at least one Pocan to grind to make the Dust of Renewing. Read the book about Horbia Trees to locate them, if you don’t know where to find them.

Aurochs Canyon Monster

    • Head to the quest marker in the center of Aurochs Canyon Path 2
    • Defeat the Fate Spinner
    • Report to the soldiers at Aurochs Fort
  • Reward: Spark Arrow
*Hard Mode Stats

Fate Spinner Attacks

  • Wondrous Vomit
    • AOE attack that can confuse anyone hit by it
  • Pincer Attack
    • Attacks the target using its pincers
  • Pounce
    • Jumps up in the air and lands on the target
  • Weakness
    • Weak to water and wind arts
    • S-Craft with Fie then swapped in Emma to heal
    • Breath on Jusis and Rean
  • Have to use Machias and Jusis in party

I started this fight off with Rean, Fie, Machias and Jusis as the game forces you to use Machias and Jusis. The first move I made was using Fie’s S-Craft to deal some massive damage to the Fate Spinner, then I swapped her out for Emma. My strategy for this fight was to use Rean to tank the boss while Jusis and Machias provided support leaving Emma to focus on healing and casting arts as needed. The two main attacks you need to look out for are Wondrous Vomit and Pounce. Make sure to use water and earth arts as the Fate Spinner is weak to both. I also put Breath on both Rean and Jusis for extra AOE healing if needed.
