- 1Teleport to Burland and sail east from the river north of town. Follow the mountain chain south until you find a brown pile on the world map. Enter this location.
- 2Use your Magma Staff to remove the blockade, revealing a secret passage to Femiscyra. Remember to pick up the Magma Staff afterward.
- 3Enter Femiscyra Castle. Break the pile of bottles to the left of the entrance to find [MINI MEDAL #17].
- 4In the eastern part of the castle, talk to the bard in the small room to make him leave. Grab a [SEED OF WISDOM] from the drawer.

- 6When the Queen asks if you stole the rosary, say "NO." When she asks if you are innocent, say "YES."
- 7The Queen will allow you to leave if one party member stays behind. Choose someone not in your active lineup.
- 8Head to the Queen's throne room. Open the blue door and examine the drawer for a [LEATHER DRESS] and a [SEED OF AGILITY].
- 9Go back downstairs. To find Alena's [FIRE CLAW], go behind the stairway leading to the throne room and find a secret passage to a cellar.

- 16On the lower floor, go southwest and follow the path south to a chest with a [SEED OF LUCK].
- 17From this chest, go east, then south. Take the elevated path west to find two chests containing a [DRAGON SHIELD] and an [IRON MASK].
