'''''Do not worry about grinding levels in this tutorial''''' — your level will be reset at the end of it, and you will lose items you acquired (they’re all beginner items anyways, so no loss.) You only need to be around level 8 to 10 to clear the final encounter.

*{{font color | green |If you are level 70+:}} Head to the Treasury on the second floor to accept {{font color | green |Quest 279 : Unopened Small Box.}} This is not main quest specific, but it’s good to complete now.
**Take the box to Nejiro back in Megistris Castle.
**Head to False Jyra Jungle and use the Brave Stone Obelisk to enter True Jyra Jungle.
***'''You cannot enter the quest location from True Defel Desert, as there is rubble blocking the way.''' You must travel in the False World first.
**You must defeat Snotbonce and Bilebonnets in the region while at 50% or less HP. You will need to set your healer Support Companion to “Leave it to me!” so they don’t heal you.
**Zoomstone back to Megistris Castle (don’t forget to set your Support Companion back to normal.) Turn in the box to Nejiro, who will then ask you to return it to Grane back in True Al-Ahagiro to complete Quest 279 and earn the Great Thief’s Key. You can now open black door locks.
*Back on track. Head to the Meeting Room on the same floor as the Treasury you just earned the Great Thief’s Key from and speak with Minister Kubusu (D-7). He will task you with heading to the dungeons of the Monster Arena. Exit outside and Walkthrough Warp there.

**Enter True Jyra Jungle and make your way to the Kudus Spring. After the cutscene, exit the cavern, Walkthrough Warp back to the Kingdom, and turn in Quest 322 at the Throne Room.
*Re-enter the Throne Room to accept '''Quest 323: Kalevan Search Request.'''
**Exit the castle and Walkthrough Warp to False Murudo Mountains. Head to the quest area for a cutscene.
**Afterwards, Walkthrough Warp and use the Brave Stone on the pillar outside False Al-Ahagiro...only to discover that it doesn’t quite work that way. Instead, Seraphi will task you with another job. Make your way towards the quest indicator on your map.
**You need to drop down in the hole located in G-4 and land on the ledge to enter Nassem Cave. Inside the cave you will be faced with a giant sand waterfall — simply walk through it. At the area where your quest objective is, find the sand waterfall and jump off of it, then double back and go through the waterfall itself to reach a door.
***Sweet Troll has high Charm, can shorten the cooldown between her turns, and Desperate Attacks often.

***The...”Three Hole Filling Siblings”...are not particularly difficult. The youngest uses AoE moves, the oldest uses targeted attacks, and the middle uses support.
**Evac-U-Bell and Walkthrough Warp back to Al-Ahagiro. Head to the Throne Room and submit Quest 324. Re-enter the Throne Room after the “Fin…” appears for a final cutscene. {{font color | red |True Al-Ahagiro is now complete.}}
{{font color | red |The Pendulum of Fate is now partially charged. Walkthrough Warp to True Gran Zedora Castle’s 2nd Floor and speak with Sage Lushenda.}}
*Sage Lushenda will assign you '''Quest 325: Assignment From Lushenda.''' Head to any Version 1 city and take a train towards any city. You will meet Sage Hollow, who asks you to gather Purifying Herbs from Orc Chieftains in the Oresco Highlands. Walkthrough Warp there now.
**You can find Orc Chieftains around C/D-5.
**Return to a Version 1 city and take the train to receive Hollow’s Research Results. Walkthrough Warp back to Sage Lushenda and turn in Quest 325.
*Head upstairs to the third floor and speak with Queen Julia to accept '''Quest 326: Queen Julia’s Wish.'''
*Prior to completing this quest, {{font color | red |let’s take yet another detour.}} Head to the fountain in True Gran Zedora and speak with Reybassa to accept '''Quest 448: Wish For Legendary Armor.'''
**Exit the city and take the Carriage to True Al-Ahagiro. Enter, and take the teleporter to the Treasury. Grane will task you with finding Red Hot Fragment. You can find the Hot Dog monsters that drop this near F-4 in True Al-Ahagiro Territory.
**Return to Grane to get the Iron Safe Key, and then return to Reybassa to submit Quest 448.
**{{font color | red |You now have the Iron Safe, which means you do not lose gold on death. You may withdraw all of your gold that you tossed in Storage.}}
*Back on track.
**Head to Renken at the True Gran Zedora armor shop. He will task you with gathering 10 Golden Thread from Hellbound Hairraisers. Exit the shop and Walkthrough Warp out of town, then head towards the southern Watchtowers at E-6.
***These enemies can charm effectively, so be careful.
**Once you have 10 Golden Thread, Walkthrough Warp back to town and head back to the Armor Shop.
**Queen Julia will task you with taking the completed item to the Royal Tomb. Exit the castle and Walkthrough Warp to True Reviewle Highway North and look for a ramp at D-1 that heads to the Royal Tomb. After the cutscene, Walkthrough Warp to the Castle and return to Queen Julia to submit Quest 326.
{{font color | red |The Pendulum of Fate is now fully charged. Report back to Sage Lushenda.}}
During the cutscene, you will be shown three locations: Wald Headwaters, Rhone Forest and Defel Desert. You will need to visit these three locations in the False World to continue. '''Accept Quest 327: Creeping Dark Footsteps.'''
*Exit the castle.
**Walkthrough Warp to False Wald Headwaters B-6, to the shining spot just north of the ramp. Collect the Wald Headwaters Water.
**Walkthrough Warp to False Rhone Forest and make your way to C-5 to collect the Rhone Forest Grass.
***There are two Great Trolls guarding the tunnel here.
**Walkthrough Warp to False Defel Desert. Just south of your position is the shining object Defel Desert Rocks.
*Time for another side-quest. Head North into the False Pyramid and speak with Yayoi to accept '''Quest 263: In Search of Gold Treasure.'''
**Head to the Eastern Tomb and inspect the slab. Descend into the ruins and examine the Sarcophagus for a fight.
***This pits a series of waves of enemies against you, mostly of the Undead family.
**Inspect the Sarcophagus once more, collect the treasure, and return to Yayoi to complete Quest 263.
**This unlocks the [https://xn--10-yg4a1a3kyh.jp/dq10_pyramid.html Pyramid activity], as well as Golden Treasure Appraisal.
***This is how you obtain certain rare accessories — the gist is that you can run 9 tombs every week (resets on Sunday JST), and two of those nine will have rare accessory loot.
***You can bring high level support companions, so this is one of your earliest weekly activities. The link above has a list of the accessories and their benefits.
***A full run will take approximately 30-45 minutes with a solid team of support units. This is also a halfway decent way to get experience.
***In particular, Tombs 7-9 are the only ones that can drop Ankhs, so they are especially important to clear weekly.
*Walkthrough Warp back to Sage Lushenda to receive a new objective — head to the Royal Treasury. Exit the castle and Walkthrough Warp there now.
*While exploring the dungeon, you may wish to open all of those Black Doors now that you have the Great Thief’s Key, but this is optional. Make your way to the quest objective at H-2.
**This fight against Barbatos and two cronies can be a little dangerous, even with high level support units. Barbatos will regularly cast Kaboomle, while the minions will regularly raise tension and deal high single-target damage. Barbatos also has a breath attack that hits hard, so try to space away from your teammates.
*Evac-U-Bell out and then Walkthrough Warp back to Sage Lushenda to turn in Quest 327. Enjoy the cutscene.
