Have lots of Basil and Amulets of Freedom equipped here, as enemies will commonly paralyze you. Head North to the next section, then further North until you reach a fork. Take the West path and stay on it until you reach a chest containing Smithery Materials. Return to the fork and head East.

Along the way you'll pass two chests containing Smithery Materials and Blackberries. At the fork, proceed South to reach a chest with Aquaberries inside. Go back to the fork and head North, follow the path Northwest and stay on the path all the way to the West end where you'll find a chest containing Writing Materials. Go back East a bit and take the first path that goes North.

Follow this path North over the river, into a bone-ridden area. Get under the dragon's shadow and he will pick you up and carry you off.

When you land, navigate South through the area until you reach a 4-way split. Head East to find a chest containing Superior Chain Mail. Go back to the split and head South. The path from here is linear.

Go South to trigger a scene. Follow the little dragon down and out of the cave. Grab the chest in this area containing 46,000 Fol then enter the cave North,

Take the North exit from where you land. When you reach a fork in the road, take the left path into a room with two chests, open them to receive Blueberries and 18,100 Fol. Go down take the right fork, and exit the cave back to the mountains.

Go North a few times, past a workshop until you reach a fork. Take the right path along until you reach another, again go right to find a chest containing Writing Materials. From there head West until you cross a little river with two waterfalls, walk on the little path in the middle to enter the cave between the two falls. Inside you'll find Ripe Berries. Return to the first fork just North of the workshop.

Head West and stay on the path, hugging the West wall. You'll quickly find a chest containing Steeled Earth. Follow the path North until you reach a save point, save your game.

Enter the cave behind the waterfall and watch the scene.

Boss:

Blue Dragon Zombie LV: 50 HP: 30,000 MP: 2500 FOL: 10,500 EXP: 3500


Boss Strategy:
Make sure your Mp is fully healed before the fight because like the normal dragon zombies, he hits hard for Mp damage. Cliff will be the main person in danger so keep him stocked with Mp via Blackberries at all times. As for the boss himself, for this point in the game 30,000 Hp is little more than twice that of a normal enemy, so even if he hits you hard, he shouldn't have a chance to do it for very long. The only main problem is the difficulty in accumulating high cancel combos, since simply standing beside him will subject you to mass Mp damage.
Defeat Blue Dragon Zombie within 1 minute:

This is one of those Battle Trophies you're likely to get without trying, as previously mentioned his Hp is low for a boss so take advantage of that and pound him with your most powerful Hp damaging battle skills before the need to heal even arises.
Defeat Blue Dragon Zombie without taking damage:

The trick to using all your Perfect Berries then simply loading your game is less effective here since it's Mp damage you'll be worrying about. The best tactic is to simply stand in a corner and use Blackberries over and over again. Keep an eye out for falling rocks, and tap your feet until the next character runs low on Mp.


After the battle watch the scene and you'll receive the Dragon's Windpipe. Exit the cave and save your game. Head back down to the workshop and examine the tools inside the dilapidated house. The Dragon's Windpipe will become the Dragon Bone Flute.

Head all the way South through the cave and out the waterfall at the bottom, go West then North to once again be picked up by the dragon. Go all the way South until you finally meet up with that little dragon again in the small cave.

Approach the little dragon. There are four types of songs you can play, and you must learn to play them all, they are played with the circle button. The dragon is for practice make sure you can play all the songs on command, they are played as follows:
  • Light button tap (Happy tune)
  • Light button hold (Playful tune)
  • Hard button tap (Sad tune)
  • Hard button hold (Angry tune)
Light and hard refer to the pressure exerted on the button. Once you've practiced leave the cave and drop down. When you land go around to the right and head South. Take the first path East you come to and follow it to a door. You'll notice a happy dragon on the door which corresponds to the type of song you should play, if you succeed the door opens, if you fail you fight a battle. Happy tune if you've forgotten is a simple quick tap of the circle button.

When the door opens, enter the ruins.
