After reaching level 20 it was time to move on to a different area. The icy region of Quifim is an island right off of
the large city of Jeuno. The island is filled with powerful monsters that give huge EXP like crabs.
The monsters include deadly giants that can rip through an unexperienced party.
The area is pretty dangerous. I died four times in one day. Also I didn't have enough gil to buy a map of the area. I
died twice trying to get back before I gave up.
Now that I leveled up to 25 it was time to leave Quifim. I had a few random quests to take care of before moving to the
next area. Here a member of the Linkshell that I'm in "DemonSlayers" helped me get the Carbuncle's Ruby. This item allows
me to unlock a new job later on. We had to kill leeches for 1 hour and 45 minutes before the leech dropped it. THANKS LADYWICKED!
To get to Rank 3 I have to travel to the two other starting cities Bastok and San d'Oria. Also to get an airship pass
to a new area, Kazham, I have to go to the areas in these missions and get a key from a powerful monster. I already obtained
one of the three keys in Giddeus from the Yagudo. One key down two to go.
The first city I went to was the industrial capitol of the world Bastok. I had to travel to some mines and get some special
sand, and get a key.
The mines were pretty scary, but now that I was a higher level I had really useful spells. The spells allowed me to become
Invisible so the monsters wouldn't attack me.
Here I am taking a Chocobo to the Elvaan city of San d'Oria.
The area was so pretty.
Except for the creepy Orcs with bags on their heads. : /
I finally made it. The city is like one pretty castle. It reminded me of Guardia Castle from my favorite game Chrono
Trigger.
I received my mission. I had to go to the Orc Base and investigate it. I would also kill two birds with one stone by
getting the key.
The Orcs had some interesting machines. It would be a lot cuter if it didn't work like a flamethrower.
Another member of the linkshell helped me get the final key I needed. THANKS SIGGY!
The area was pretty nice despite all the evil monsters running around.
Here it is what I sent to investigate, the Burning Circle. I wasn't strong enough to go in by myself. So I waited for
a party. I had to wait four hours before someone finally came by and invited me to join their group.
My heroes!
We had to fight this strong dragon and a monster called Seeker. But for us it was no problem. It turns out that the Shadow
Lord, responsible for the Great War 20 years ago is returning. Scary.
After winning I decided to put off returning to Windurst to be promoted to Rank 3. I really wanted to level up to
get the extra jobs. So I took the super cool Airship to the tropical paradise of Kazham. Kazham is also where Mithra originally
came. Many Mithra left their homeland to go to Windurst to help the super cute TaruTaru in the War.
