WinHill [during this dream sequence]

Notes: Laguna and Kiro's Clothing…
They have changed! Finally from those sloppy Galbadian battle outfits! Laguna is wearing his casual clothes and Kiros too.. Ward however is not here.. Want to know why? Get the game and play it!


The screen will now switches back to our favorite and humorous Laguna, who is talking to a little girl called Ellone. Ellone will talk to Laguna for a while and head downstairs. [they are supposed to meet a person but it is very dangerous out there..]. There is a Save Point found in the second floor of the house. Hidden within the cupboard located in the north is a Draw Point. Draw some magic [Curaga] before heading downstairs. Talk to Ellone which will end up having a sequence…

Laguna will be admiring the photo.. Now head for the Pub that's located on the left of the house. Make sure that you have check your junctions before walk past as the area is prone to monsters and Laguna will tell Ellone that it is safe to walk past.

Now talk to the girl dressed in yellow. Her name is Raine and she will tell Laguna that they have a visitor... It is Kiros! Notice that the huge guy is no longer around... Next you will given the following options.

What's Ward up to? (he is taking an unsual job..)
Tell me about Julia (well, for those whom are interested in Laguna's love life... Julia is a songtress and her famous song is Eyes on Me!)
Where am I? (this question is a bit strange...meant for Squall)
Let's talk later

Pick the fourth option Now Kiros will re-join your party and you will be asked to walk down the streets of Winhill, exterminate Bite Bugs and Caterchipillars. I guess your character should have reached level 20+, that's why I have put Cura instead of Cure. Well, the monsters also have additional skills... e.g. the Caterchipillar may use a Sticky Web move…

Head out and walk across the compound of Winhill. You will find a Draw Point [Dispel] if you go down the stairs near the river. The main compound is basically conversations about the legendary (well, for their time Esthar is the bad foe…) Esthar and Galbadia. Ellone has some special powers and will be abducted by the President (Sorceress Adel… yeah, it is a Sorceress...). Check your junctions. Don't panic if you haven't gotten all GFs. In my last attempt, I have purposely missed the Carbuncle and Siren. which means I can't use ST-Atk-J. But it does not mean you can't use Elem-Atk-J ^_^; [junction Blizzard* to your elemental junction as also watch for Laguna and Kiros' Limit Breaks.]

Now head back and cross the bridge. You will have an event here. You need do some patrolling along the village. Now head south to exit the area. Now walk down the lane. You will find a florist shop on the left and there is a Draw Point [Drain] near the yellow board. Next head right.[this move is essential as you wouldn't be able to access it later..] You will find a truck near the hill slope. Press X near the truck and it will uncover another Draw Point, draw some more magic [Reflect] from it and head down the slope. Head left. You will be at the lower end of the town. The house on the top-left is just a villager's house. The right side is the hotel and the Flower Restaurant [currently, there is no one here, BTW the stay in here is free!]. The shop at the south-west is an Item Shop, purchase some items. [use all 3,000 gil since it is the 'past money' and does not affect your current cash..] Then you will have another sequence, your job is done! Now head back to the upper-part through north. Note that you can't take the winding road, Laguna is rather a superstitious guy... Now head up and you will be on a road with the signboard that's says "CAUTION" and you will have another sequence. [it is about Raine's relationship with Laguna] Head up and you will be back at the road where you find the florist shop [of course, you will have more chit-chat, BTW, don't expect the journey be so smooth as youwill be facing monsters ^_^;]. BTW, here is the shopping list…

Now head for the pub and up the stairs to the second floor. You will have another sequence there... [same here, Raine is also in love in Laguna... oh... what an headache? Well, did I sound like Squall? Always kept to one's thought..). Next Raine will tell Laguna to rest at the room.

There is another sequence with Ellone if you talk to her. Next head back to the house where you found the Save Point. Save your game. Now head to the bed and choose Option No.1. Laguna will talk to Kiros and you will be transported back to Squall's time. (hmm... did you ask this question? Who is responsible for this dream? Interested? Walk on...)
