Lufia and the Fortress of Doom

Part 12




UPDDDDDDDDATE

I went to the Medan mines but there was nothing there but an old man who told me to leave. What a jerk!

So anyway back to Kirof.



Whoa, but she's sick!

I know, I thought she couldn't even stand! And I brought her the hope ruby. . .

ah ha! So you DID steal it!

I know it's wrong but I have to help her! I'm coming with you guys!

Suit yourself.

I wonder where she went?


FFFFFFFFFUCK! I hate ghosts!


Wow, worst guard ever. Can't even stop a little girl. Okay, now time to go into the ghost cave


SwordSPOOK! And Wilowisps. The wilowisps take barely any damage from physical attacks but are insanely weak against magic. Swordspooks hhit hard but die pretty fast. Also, sometimes they drop. . .


SWORDS!


DAMN! That stings.


Ghost mail and FlameSPOOK. Flamespooks are weak against water (duh) and ghost mail is tough to kill. They also drop. . .


Which is really great and I gave it to Mixam.


Hooray for healing tiles! This makes the trip through here a little easier.


These pots are CRAZY?!?! They suck though, they can cast frost which hits my whole party. Lufia shrugs off magic damage, but Aguro doesn't.


The first spell that hits all opponents. It's pretty useful here, except it'll quickly suck up all your MP. Also, it doesn't work well against flamespooks, since it's fire based.


2/8


This increases the damage you do to ghosts. I gave it to Aguro, now he does like 150+ damage per hit to ghosts. Mixam only does like 40.


Damn it, I hate forks in the path. Let's go, uh, right first.



Sure, close your eyes for a second, it's a bit dazzling.



Thanks I feel much better now. I'll tell you the SECRET of the cave. Things aren't what they appear to be.

That's a pretty shitty secret.

Well anyway, let's take the left stairs this time.


DAMN IT I HATE FORKS. Let's uh take a random one.


Okay well apparently I need to be up there so I'll take the bridge.


This bridge is full of holes! What about the left one?


Fucking bridges need work. Let's try, uh. . . the middle?


Whoa, invisible bridge! OH SNAP!


Look at that, I made it across! Let's go fight the annoying ghost boss.



. . .

Reyna, it's me Mark! Wake up!

KEEP AWAY, THIS SOUL IS MINE!


Uh, what the hell does he want with the ruby? They never explain it. Anyway, let's kill him.


Basically, since aguro can dish out massive amounts of damage, I just used drain on the boss and then hit him.


That's a LOT of damage for this early. I'm just that awesome.


Magic isn't very effective but anyway, I eventually killed him.


While Mixam snoozed.



Reyna!

Mark? Where am I?

How do you feel?

A little light headed, but fine.

Oh, so she was possessed, no wonder medicing didn't work.

Hey, is that the "hope ruby"? It's broken!

Yeah, well, we don't need it anymore.

But it's very valuable what will we do?

tell the truth and apologize.

I'm sure the princess will understand, right Mixam?

Of course, right Aguro?

Maybe she'll reward you instead! Ha, ha, ha!

Uh, anyway, let's head back to Kirof.



Are you leaving already?

Yeah we have to find Elfrea.

I thought you couldn't go there without an elf in your party! Luckily for you, I hear there are elved in Belgen, which is southeast of here through a cave east of Medan.

Boy he sure knows a lot. Okay, next goal is Belgen. I guess we should head back to Medan first.



Okay well in this scene the princess tells the people that the hope ruby was a fake, there is no real hope ruby, and that after the gem mines ran out Medan survived on tourism, however they can't do that anymore and need to all work hard to restore Medan to its former glory. It isn't really all that exciting, so I just gave you thr jist of it. Anyway.


Awesome, now I can go to Belgen.

Okay, hockey game is on, GO SABRES, I'll play a little more and if the sabres play like shit and I refuse to watch anymore I'll update, otherwise, GO SABRES.
