Part 11
Huzzah!
This is Broffo Cave. As you can see, it's right near Majari. You can also go down in this cave, but again there's a guard blocking you:
not even funny! Don't go!
This time, he's right. The enemies in this cave will probably decimate your party before you can get a turn off. We won't be coming back here for a long, long time.
Here's Siantao, and also some crazy temple called Leong Temple, that you actually want to go to FIRST or else you'll miss a few items.
Would you like to train here at this temple? You can improve your skills.No thanks Mr. Miyagi, I'm fine. Actually I'm here to steal your lunch
MUAHAHAHAHAHA CONSIDER YOUR LUNCH MINE, OLD MAN!
There's a nice view here except on the world map the ocean is right behind the temple so why is there like fields and mountains. . . ?
Oh yeah you can also find lying around here:
- ConfuPowder
- Power Seed
- FireBoomer
- Mind Seed
- Sanity Ring (ATP+5, prevents confusion, is shitty)
- Miracle (oh lawd)
Let's head to Siantao.
You can tell it's a harbor because of all the. . . boxes. . . around.
Of course the first thing I always do is break into the item shop
The four chests has Wisdom Seed, Mind Seed, Skill Seed, and Poison Ring (RES+5, prevents poison, is decent)
also a couple new spells here, escape which everyone can learn and is great, and X-Absorb which lets Seena steal hp from all the enemies.
If you wander around town and talk to people, you'll learn that there are ferries to the Lidal Continent (hey where that tree is at, I NEED THAT) but they're not running because the boat is under repair or being inspected, actually they say different things. Also that there is a gang that terrorizes the town and hangs out behind the church. You know, where Foomy can't see them. And the music here is an awesome throw back to the town music in the first Lufia.
Man, picking on a little girl? What jerks!
Just hand over your money missy. We won't smash your pretty face if you do.
P-please stop. . . take it. . . just don't hurt me. . . 
Hey you guys! Who the hell are you? Don't you know we're the GARLAND GANG?! Never heard of you. What?! You don't know the Garland Gang?! You're not from around here huh? Well let me tell you, the Garland Gang are. . . 
. . . The lowest group of thugs who only prey on the weak! What?! Who's there?
Crazy amazon karate bitch, to the rescue!
up last week! A-Aima! Bro, we should back off! Idiot! Are you scared of a mere woman?! Mere woman you say? We shall see!POW! SMACK! BAM! ZOCK! BIFF!
Damn you, you won't be so cocky for long! Next time we meet, We, the Garland Gang, shall knock you all down! Exits D-don't leave me Bro! Exits Those scum. . . Thank you so much. Are you alright? Yes I'm fine. Okay well run along home now, and be safe! Thank you so much.
But it was so satisfying.
Oh well, that felt good. Was it good for you too?
Oh yeah. But it's not like everyone in the city is like that, so please don't hate it. This is where I was born and raised. I love this city. We think it's a nice city please don't beat me up I'm Marco, a traveling Swordsman. I'm Aima, a monk of Leong Temple to the north.
Leong Temple!
Good thing I got all those items before!
What? Don't tell me they. . . She rushes to the temple. I followed, but not before scouring the city for items:
- Power Seed
- X-Magic x2
- SmallBoomer
- X-Bomb x2
- Speed Seed
- Wisdom Seed
- Hi Potion
- GoddessTear
Okay let's go meet up with Aima at the temple and see what's up.
Aw man, I hope that old man is okay. If he was captured, now he's somewhere, scared, alone. . . and hungry.
This is terrible. . . What happened? The Garland Gang did this. Just because I always kick their asses. . . That's no reason to get back at you like this! I know, but I'm more worried about my Master. They left a letter saying, "If you want your Master back, bring the Scroll." Scroll? It contains the secret technique of the Jigen-Ryu fighting style. But I've never seen it, and have no idea where it would be hidden. So you can't give them the scroll. . . So what are you going to do? Easy. I'll bust into their base and beat them all up! By yourself? Yeah. The Garland Gang as a whole are very strong, so I can't ask the citizens of the town to help.
Even if you're very strong WHERE DID YOU COME FROM HOLY SHIT Oh sorry, I should've appeared sooner. Anyway, they have your master hostage, and also they'll probably overwhelm you with numbers. I know, but there's no other way. We'll help you Really? Yeah, we might not look it, but we're pretty strong. Yeah, and I want to beat those jerks up myself! Yeah, anyone who attacks defenseless girls like that deserve a beat down. They're horrible jerks, and it's my job to steal from jerks like them! Well then, I gladly accept your help, Sir Marco! Just call me Marco. Let's go get them! The Garland headquarters are in a cave east of here. Let's go, Marco!
Name: Aima
Class: Amazoness/Monk
Weapon: Her fists!
Likes: Bruce Lee movies, rice balls, smashing rocks with her bare hands
Dislikes: Professional wrestling, magic eyes, toga wedgies
about : Aima is the monk character of the game. She beats stuff down with her high STR. She gives off green SF, and has high HP and DEF. She rocks. Although she has even lower WIS and INT than Marco, and can't use very much magic. Her IP skills are the best, and she makes a great front row fighter.
Aima finally gives us green SF, meaning we can teach Marco Holy Attack! Although now we have to arrange our party differently, since there are four of us, so I did this:
putting Seena behind Marco makes it so he doesn't die horribly to magic. Also, she becomes a back row support character, so if I'm facing annoying undead guys, she can blast them with magic while Marco protects her from the front.
Here's what she looks like after getting some equipment for her, not bad, although she can't equip shields, so her def isn't top notch all the time. She's also at a much lower level than the rest of my team, so once she gets to their level her stats should improve a bit.
Okay next time we'll kick some Garland Gang ass and save Master, maybe get some really amazing IP skills too, who knows?!
