After escaping Zaphias, you'll find yourself on the World Map. Your immediate destination is Deidon Hold, a fortified checkpoint. On the World Map, random encounters with monsters will occur. Engage in these battles to gain experience and Gald. Deidon Hold itself is a small area with a few NPCs and a shop. Stock up on any necessary items like Apple Gels and Life Bottles. After passing through Deidon Hold, continue on the World Map towards the next major landmark, the Ghasfarost. Take some time to explore the immediate vicinity of Deidon Hold on the World Map; sometimes, hidden treasure chests or unique monster encounters can be found off the beaten path, offering valuable early-game resources.
