Well, fuck.
Looks like I'm going to have to change
my plans again. At least I've got a decent in-game reason this time.
See, I finally got to the top of the
Tower of Magic. The treasure up there is called the Gem Box. It's
really a great Relic to have, because whichever character has it can
cast any and every spell they have for a single MP. That really
comes in handy starting right about now.
But, as always, there's a boss fight.
There's always a boss fight at times like this. That's how video
games work, especially RPGs like this. In this case, we're up
against a boss monster called the MagiMaster. It would seem that
this guy's the ghost of one of the robot monstrosities we fought all
the way back in the MagiTek Research Facility. It does the same Wall
Change thing, where the elemental magic it's weak against changes
every time it gets hit with pretty much any magic at all. This means
that as long as the party has Wall Ring relics equipped, it's mostly
an endurance test, as the MagiMaster will do most of the damage to
itself.
Thing is, though, this boss has a final
attack that essentially kills everybody in the room. The good news
is that there's a way to get out of that. There's a spell called
Life Three that can bring back any character it's cast on if
something kills them. The bad news is I don't have it yet, and
changing that's going to be quite a challenge. I've gotta go after
Locke in the Phoenix Cave. I remember this part being a bit
difficult, but doable.
So, that's where we'll be going next
time: the Phoenix Cave. We'll get the Esper Phoenix and Locke back
in the party. From there, it'll be a matter of just grinding up at
least one party member with Life 3 before we go back after the tower
again. I'll probably tell about the cave, but not the grinding.
And a special note before I wrap this
up. Starting next issue, I'll be running this Text Play through my
Patreon account, found here: http://www.patreon.com/JMShearer
. The issues will still show up here, as well, within a day or two,
because I do like to have the links I embed work, and they don't so
much on Patreon.
With that in mind, I'll see you next
time. Until then, keep gaming, have fun, stay safe, and DFTBA!
