Cloud's Log: Day 16
Heya, Cloudman here. It feels like it's been awhile since the last log, but I am back to continue the adventure! Let's get on with it!
Around the World In Maybe An Hour, and Quickly! Kiss Save the Aliens! Girl!
So the last time I played, I has just gotten the Rheiards, machines that can fly in the sky, and now I am able to flying anywhere in the world! But I also have to save Colette! So I do the reasonable thing: Explore the world of course! Colette isn't going anywhere, and nothing will happen until I progress the story. So I will explore all that I can first! Yee hah!!! ...Unfortunately, I can't really do that. The game doesn't let me progress. I try to enter some areas and towns, and Lloyd tells me "Why have to save Collette!" What a ho boring guy... That didn't stop me from finding some accessible areas... x )
I went north to a snow village, Christmasy music and all, and I was able to explore it! I talked to towns people, bougth some supplies, and even found a wonder chef or too x D The town was really nice, but there wan't much to do there... So I left the town and searched the north pole. I did fight some monsters, like PEOPLE IN PENGUIN COSTUMES. That was seriously weird... I also found a conversation or 2 in the area x ) That was neat...
I also found a rich beachy area with richly people and BUNNY GIRLS. For some reason, there are bunny girls here, which is weird, but I won't complain x ) Also, for some reason, Regal doesn't like this town. Like, he refuses to enter, and waits outside until you come back... I did explore this area some, and bought more gear.
Oh yeah, I also found a FLOATING CITY IN THE SKY!!! (Laputa anyone?) Seriously, there is a city floating in the sky. I went to it and talked to people and just explore all I could. There wasn't much hear except a wonder chef maybe? It wasn't much, but it was cool x D
Aside from these 3 towns, I couldn't access anything else. So I reluctantly continued the story... I found the purple haired man, Rodyle, there with Colette trapped. We tell him to give her to us, but he laughs and says we can have her, since she is useless to him, or something. But he still decided to sic his pet dragon birds on us... @_@ So we fight 2 dragon birds, and... a giant dragon head and neck, for some reason... It doesn't even have a body. Weirdness aside, this was a tough fight. The bodiless dragon gave me a hard time, but we beat them. The purple man, redial the phone, runs off, and we try to save Colette, but cannot break the barrier she is in. Also, the barrier shoots out something that causes harm to everyone. Somehow, Presea resists it and frees Colette. The tiny area starts to collapse, and we manage to escape, barely...
Around the World In 80 Days Round 2, and the Earth Temple
After the battle with Purple Man Rodyle's bird dragons, the party ends up next to the Earth Temple, which seems like a good place to contine... Except I leave to explore the world again! I have access to everything in the world again, but I still can't do much. The new areas I find are off limits to me. How lame... I did find some cool secrets though, as well as more treasures and conversations x D
So with my exploration done, I decide to enter the Earth Temple! Now, this one has its own weird quirk to it, like all the others. This time, for some reason, there are little gnomes here that block your path and act like big shots. I should just stomp them with my boot. Oddly enough, all the gnomes get out of my way to explore the temple. Not sure why little gnomes are getting in my way, but they are...
Anyways, I find the sorcerer's ring function here, an earthquake function. Use this power, and the earth will shake. You use it to cause things to break and fall, such as treasures and bridges. Over use it, and a giant worm will land on you and fight you o_o This dungeon is rather short and easy. You just have to entertain gnomes a bit. You even have to make curry for one of them. I don't know why it's there, but it is... There is also a room with a sort of puzzle for treasures. Stand on top of a bridge and use the ring to break them. depending on which part of the bridge you stand on, you will land on a different platform below and can get different treasures. Think of it as kind of like Plinko, from the Price is Right...
Tales of Symphonia Earth Temple. Kind of Like Plinko... Well, Not Really... >_>;
On your first try with this puzzle, you will miss some treasures, but don't worry. You can go back to the room and try again to get all the treasures. At the bottom, you meet a gnome brother on the left who will take you out of the room. On the right side is just another brother who is a jerk and won't let you pass...
Anyways, you find a secret path that takes you to the beginning, as well as another gnome bro who offers to help you reach the boss, but he hates monsters! So makes sure to protect him while he is walking, or else he will get mad and not progress the game >: T After the bro walks to the destination, he gets on top of a bridge, and tells you he can break the bridge if they work together. Now, he will jump and you time your earthquake power with his jump to break the bridge. So he counts 1...2...3! And you have to time it with your ring. This part I hated. It took me a lot of tries to break the bridge. So the bridge falls and we die and we nearly fall to our death. The gnome laughs it off and walks away. Well, at least I can fight the boss.
So at the end, we meet a giant mole who is the earth spirit. He talks like a jokester kid and makes fun of the way Sheena speaks. Anyways, we fight the mole to make a pact, and he is kinda tough, but we beat him anyways. The wind spirits show up, saying the mana links are severed further, we get Gnome the Earth Spirit, and an earthquake happens. Cool... So we are done with the Earth Temple, yay! ...Actually, not yet. Remember the one gnome bro in the puzzle room who wouldn't let us pass? Well, all the brothers are there, and they will allow us to pass! ... Only if all the brothers are present, and one is missing T_T So I can't go this secret route without finding the last bro. I will find him though! ... Just not now. Next time for sure, because....!
It's the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeend... of this play through! I'll be back to cover more Tales of Symphonia action! See ya next time! x D
Dance my pretties!
