Welgaia

After the scene, ride the elevator across. Save your game and use the warp portal on your left. A scene will occur and you will gain control of Colette. Push the lower block to the left, then pull the upper one off of the transporter panel. Now with your full party, teleport up.

Go into the building on the right and speak with the angel. Following the conversation you will receive a Mana Fragment. Leave the building and go up the conveyor belt at the upper left.

At the split, take the path to the right and across the conveyor belt to the next section of town. Go up the small set of stairs. Up the second elevator here is a refresher machine, up the last elevator is a shop terminal. The terminal on the ground floor at the far right is the information database, access it and read up on the three topics. The terminal second from the right will activate the portal you need to take. Once it has been activated go back to the left, take the lower stairs and get on the lift just on your right. Now take the warp.

From this room head out to the left, then save and go down the stairs.

Proceed left down the path, ignoring chances to head either up or down. Continue on the path as it curves downward and then descend the stairs. Follow the path until it leads to a set of doors on your right, and watch a scene. Now that you are weightless you find yourself in a puzzle room, similar to the one from the temple of ice, however much more complicated. Use the following directions to get through, from where you start slide:

And head into the door. At the end of this path there is a treasure box at the bottom containing an EX Gem Lv4, and a red switch at the top. Examine the switch to disengage the Red Gate Lock. Now return to the weightless room. Find your way to the other door you came in from and exit. Now return to the save point just near where you warped in from the angel city.

Save if you like and head down the stairs. Proceed up this time. Ignore the door and go to your left. At the bottom of the stairs head down both paths that lead South to find two treasures containing a Nagazuki and a Laser Blade. At the top left of this room is the switch that disengages the Blue Door Lock. Examine it to do so. Now if you know your way back return to the low gravity room (if not just go to the save point and follow the first instructions.)

When you reach the weightless room again, follow this new path:

Examine the elevator and select "Yes" to enter it. When you reach the top you will find yourself in another similar room. The directions to take here are as follows:

Enter the door. Follow the path up and then to the upper right at the split to find a chest with Energy Tablets in it. Now take the path down and follow it into the same room again. Don't worry if you don't see yourself (you're actually in the middle of the right wall) just use the following directions:

Examine the elevator and choose "Yes" to go down. You will find yourself in the first weightless room again, use the following directions:

Yeah that's it. Take this elevator up to one new (and thankfully final) weightless room. Now go:

Enter the room and grab the treasure chest at the bottom to get the Holy Circlet. Now examine the terminal on the right and you will obtain the Elevator Key. Return to the weightless room and slide your way to the elevator you came from. After going down, this time when you slide to the right, instead of going into the elevator slide up and left to exit the room. Return to the first room and save your game.

Now head down the stairs and take the upper path again. Go into the door on the right. Head up and you will find the elevator door. Examine the slot on the left of the door to unlock it and enter. Examine the glowing sphere and choose "Yes" to go down.

The path here is straightforward, follow it until you reach a warp portal. Warp from the large circle at the end, and prepare for a scene. The scene ends with...

Boss: Yggdrasill

HP: 40,000 | TP: 300 | EXP: 0 | Gald: 0

You do not have to kill this guy, you only have to stay alive for a certain period of time. I'd still recommend attacking him of course, it may be a trigger for the end of the fight, but don't waste resources like unison attacks or special potions to try and kill him. Dedicate your time to trying to dodge his dangerous Holy Lance attack, as well as his equally powerful Ground Dasher, these spells have the capacity to wipe out entire parties if you aren't prepared so do everything you can to avoid being hit. Hopefully the fight will end before you are too taxed.

More events follow the battle. Watch the next scene, then head South and take the warp back, and exit the Tower of Salvation.

Upon leaving you will automatically be taken to Altessa's House.
