Melody and the crew finish the practice dungeon, only to find that there’s something otherworldly accidentally sharing space with the cardboard labyrinth. So, it looks like their first (unofficial) job as adventurers will be to figure out why there’s a guy with a video tape for a head prowling around the Sapphire Islands. Said job also might be waylaid by the fact that their friend Jodi went missing, and it seems imperative we find her.
We’ve got our first quest after getting out of Aliahan: we’ve gotta track down Robin 'Ood and take back what he’s stolen. The only problem is that he’s well-clear of Romaria, in a tall tower. We’ve got our first tough task ahead of us, because the monsters in Skyfell Tower are just hardy enough that Deirdre’s scrappy team is exhausting themselves from fighting. But if saving the world was an easy task, someone would have finished this dungeon before us, so we’ll just keep going and not get discouraged.
It’s up to Geo and Luna alone to track down their friends. Something like that is a pretty big ask, but thankfully a golden opportunity falls into their laps by complete coincidence: Zack has appeared on television for some reason. Even stranger, he’s wound up in the Loch Mess and hasn’t made any attempt to reach out to his friends after being kidnapped by the void. But thankfully, Luna is rich so she can afford to travel out of the blue. And Geo? He can just travel by television.
We’ve found our way to the Wasteland in the sky. No, that’s not me dissing heaven, there’s a hidden sky island covered in a vast desert. Jodi’s around here somewhere, and she’s… been talking with locals.
… What do you mean there are locals?
