- Go in close for the kill
- Throw a weapon at it
Select whichever you’d like as they both result in the shadow running off to the spire near the village. Return to your house in the village if you need to heal before continuing to the spire.
Spirit Spire
When ready, enter Spirit Spire. Head north to find a door. After it opens, continue north a short ways to interact with the Mysterious Shadow. After it runs off, make your way to the southwestern part of the area to find a set of stairs. Take them to the second floor then head to the very north and interact with the Altar. Once the scene ends, make your way out of the Spirit Spire and back to Omega Village.
Omega Village
Head north to the mayor’s house to receive Fruit. After the scene, exit the village and make your way to the Secret Grotto.
Secret Grotto
Head north and interact with Laty. Take a peak at Laty’s Picture Book then speak with Laty. With Laty in your party, exit the grotto and make your way for the Spirit Spire.
Spirit Spire
Enter the spire and make your way to the altar on the second floor. During the scene, you’ll have to choose to give Lac a Salve, Iron Sword or Fruit. Choose the fruit then exhaust all the dialog options. Afterwards, leave the spire and return to Omega Village.
Omega Village
Once in the village, travel to your house to retrieve the Ship’s Wheel. Afterwards, head to the mayor’s house to say goodbye. Leave the town and make your way to the grotto.
Secret Grotto
Once in the Secret Grotto, make your way to the ship on the western side. For naming the Unnamed Ship, you’ll have the below options but Laty’s opinion will be the only one that counts.
- Think of One Yourself
- You won’t be able to think of one and will have to ask either Laty or Lac for their opinion.
- Ask for Laty’s Opinion
- Names the ship “The Bon Vent”
- Ask for Lac’s Opinion
- Lac will suggest “Lac the Great and Powerful” but you’ll ignore him and have to ask Laty for her opinion.
After naming the ship, select to weigh anchor to continue on your journey!
