Post-Battle Exploration:

After the battle, return to the boss room and go to the NE side to find a chest containing 'Sage'. In the area with the mining cars, find a hidden chest with 'EX Gem Lv1'. In the next room, go East at the fork and use the Sorcerer's Ring on the arrow on the North wall to make it point North. After defeating the dog-like enemy to get the Memory Gem, examine the gate to the North for a scene. Descend the elevator and go East. Change the Sorcerer's Ring function at the end. Go West, up the wooden ramp, and open the chest for 'Saint Rapier'. Continue NW to find a chest with 'Sand Saber'.

Return down the wooden ramp. Near the mining carts to the NE, find a hidden chest containing 'Crescent Ax'. Return to the upper level and use the Sorcerer's Ring to blow up the rock to your West. Return down and revert the Sorcerer's Ring to its normal function. Go back to the upper level, use the moving platform, and hit the arrow again. Return to the previous level and change the Sorcerer's Ring function once more. Cross the moving platform and enter the door.

Blow up the boulder blocking the path. Go North, and at the first fork, go North and West into an opening to find 'Iron Grieves' in a chest. Return and blow up the boulder North of you. At the fork, go North, down the wooden ramp, and examine the machine on the wooden platform. Return up the ramp, go North, blow up the boulder, and at the fork, go South and blow up the boulder. Return to the previous fork, go East, blow up the boulder, and descend the ramp before it.

Talk to the small creature walking around and give him any potion you have (e.g., Palma Potion, Mizuho Potion). Check the chest South of you for 'Silk Robe'. Return up the ramp, go South, and unlock the memory seal.

Blow up the boulder SE of the Memory Circle. At the fork, go South, and at the next fork, go West and down the ramp. Examine the machine on the wooden platform and get 'Battlesuit' from the chest to the East. Go up the ramp and East to the previous fork. Go North and East at the next fork. After a scene, continue on. A scene triggers showing the Naploosa Bacura. Lure it more than halfway towards the boulder activation switch. Run to the switch, then backwards into the opening to make the Naploosa Bacura crumble. Equip Lloyd's Personal Lv2 EX skill to run faster. Push the wall switch to deactivate the trap. Return, go down the elevator, go East, and get 'Thunder Cape' from the chest. Go to where the Naploosa Bacura was destroyed and get 'Super Pellets' from the chest. Examine the Naploosa Bacura to obtain 'Evil Eye'. Return to the upper level and go down the stairs it was guarding.

Go East and descend the stairs instead of crossing the bridge. At the end, open the chest for 'EX Gem Lv3'. Return, cross the bridge, and watch a scene. Blow up the East crates to find a chest with 'Inhibitor Ore'. Another scene triggers. Leave the mine manually. A scene plays as you exit. Exit Toize Valley Mine and head to Ozette.
