Tips
  • The Dark Dragon has low ATK and DEF, making it an easier fight if you have rebuilt Luin and fought many Dragons.
  • The enemies in Vinheim include Dark Commander, Dark Spear, Dark Sword, and Dark Archer.
  • Hidden items can be found behind couches and in coves.
  • The puzzle at the end requires pushing crates in a specific order to form a bridge.
  • After obtaining the Sacred Stone, you can return to Tethe'alla and Sylvarant to complete sidequests, such as obtaining the final recipe from the Wonder Chef in Meltokio, finishing Colette's Dogs, and visiting Altami.
