Return to Caldisla

Before heading to the lake, gear up in Caldisla! Learn what to buy at the armory and trader, and how to equip your new gear to face the Eternian forces.

Alright, so the immediate problem is that Eternia's causing trouble in Caldisla, and Agnes is being super stubborn about handling it all by herself. Looks like we've gotta go chase after her!

Once you're outside the palace, Tiz will catch up to Agnes. Since her sense of direction is, well, terrible, she'll have to rely on Tiz to get her to the Eternian forces. Glad that little argument is sorted! If you've been keeping up, your next stop is the lake southwest of Caldisla.

But hey, before we charge headfirst into enemy territory, it's a really good idea to get properly equipped. Just south of the palace, you'll spot the weapon shop – it's got that sword and shield icon on the bottom screen. Hopefully, you've managed to save up some cash from your trip to the ravine, enough for some better gear at least.

For now, focusing on defense is probably the way to go. The best weapon available, the Broadsword, isn't a huge upgrade over what you're currently using. So, grab two Bucklers, a couple of Bronze Helms, a Linen Cuirass, and maybe a Bronze Gauntlet or Bangle.

To equip all this, just hit START, SELECT, or X to open the main menu, then go to “Equip.” Remember, shields can be equipped in your other (left) hand for that extra defense!

Next up, head left to find the Trader. They've got all your essential healing items like Potions and Phoenix Downs. Stock up on Potions if you feel you need them; 10 should be a good amount to carry for now. After that, spend a night at the inn to fully recover your health, and then we can leave Caldisla.
