o------- Item Checklist -------o  Save your game and head North to the next 
|                              |  section of the cave.  In the next area 
| Wild Fowl Meat........._____ |  there's a fork right at the beginning.  Take 
| Herb..................._____ |  the right branch and follow it up, then East 
| Herb..................._____ |  and keep going East until you reach a chest 
| Galba Armor............_____ |  with 'Wild Fowl Meat' inside.  Now from here 
| Galba Shield..........._____ |  leave the room and start running West, don't 
| Bell of Silence........_____ |  change directions until you've passed 
| White Fowl Meat........_____ |  thorugh at least four maps and you reach a 
| Gold Tabulas..........._____ |  dead end.  At that point head North.  In 
| Herb..................._____ |  this room you'll see a chest up on the cliff 
| White Fowl Meat........_____ |  on your left, to reach it jump on one of 
| Seed of Defense........_____ |  those little stone pillars and hop up.  
| Blue Potion............_____ |  You'll find a 'Herb' inside.  Proceed North 
| Blue Potion............_____ |  to the next map and then go East immediately 
| Capla Water............_____ |  to reach the map beside it.  Finally go 
|                              |  North once more to reach a small room with a 
o------------------------------o  chest containing 'Herb.'  Leave the room and 
                                  take the Northeast exit from here.  Take the 
East exit out of this room, and then the East exit again.  Just for reference 
you should have just passed through an area with a lot of gold slimes and now 
be in an area with green and blue slimes.  Once more take the East exit and 
you'll find yourself at a fork.  Head South and follow this linear path out to 
a large chest containing 'Galba Armor.'  Return back up to the fork and take 
the East branch this time.  This leads you up to a room with a chest 
containing 'Galba Shield.'  Now if you want to proceed through the entire cave 
there's a special item you need, it's not located in the cave but is in the 
possession of a rather difficult enemy which is why getting that armour and 
shield were a good idea.  You'll have to exit the cave now though, using the 
Wing of Alma is a simple and easy way to return yourself to the save point.

Head to the first Canaan Plain and go North to the next map.  Before you cross 
the bridge turn left and proceed West to the next area.  Follow this path up 
to reach a large bee enemy, it is a very difficult enemy because it is so hard 
to hit.  The trick is to wait until it's on ground level and there are no 
other enemies around, at that point use your lightning sword to cast magic 
which should hit it many many times taking off almost half its health.  At 
that point go in and swing at it like mad.  When it rises into the air focus 
on dodging the powerful stingers and defeating the small enemies.  Once the 
boss is dead a chest appears at the back containing 'Bell of Silence.'  Now 
it's time to head back to the entrance of the Limewater Cave.

Alright now listen carefull, here's where you want to go.  North, North, 
North, East.  At this point you should be in a room with a lot of gold slimes.  
Now proceed North, East, North.  This should bring you to a room with a lot of 
stone platforms of varying heights you need to navigate, in the middle of the 
room you'll find a chest containing 'White Fowl Meat.'  Take the Northwest 
exit then follow the path to the next West exit.  This will bring you out to 
the upper section of another map.  There's a pillar in the middle you can use 
to jump across to the other side, however I find it's a lot easier to just use 
the dash jump.  If you happen to fall there's a save point to the North and 
you can get back here by going South, East, East, North, Northwest and West 
from where you fell.  Continue West past the waterfalls into the next room and 
head North.  Now you absolutely must equip the Bell of Silence here.  These 
enemies cannot be defeated without it, however with it equipped they fall very 
quickly.  In fact what I like to do is lure a lot of them near me and then let 
loose a lightning magic attack, works great.  Once they're taken care of jump 
across to the top of the room and head through the door.  Open the chest to 
receive the 'Gold Tabulas.'  Before you go back anywhere you might want to 
spend some time in the previous room killing those monsters, not only do they 
drop a lot of Emelas they have an incredibly high drops rate for Herbs.  Head 
South out of this room, now watch out for the cliff below you in this room.  
There's a much faster way to get back than going all the way around.  Jump up 
onto that red platform sticking out of the wall on your left and dash jump 
back to the high ground on the right, then go East through the door.  Run past 
the waterfalls and drop down on purpose at the next map.  Go North and save.

Leave the save point room and head North.  At the first fork go right.  On the 
next map you might come into contact with some shadows of yourself, if you 
want to see their true identity equip the Rainbow Fragment.  Head East again 
and then South.  Open the chest here to receive 'Herb.'  Proceed North twice 
and then jump up on the platform on the East side, there's a door at the top.  
Open the chest and your accessory slots will be increased by one.  Leave this 
room and take the South exit, return all the way back to the beginning and 
save your game.  Now take the left branch at the fork.  Follow this path 
through the next room and around the waterfall in the next one where you'll 
find a chest containing 'White Fowl Meat.'  In the next room use the dash jump 
to reach the chest at the top and get the 'Seed of Defense.'  Now once again 
backtrack to the save point at the entrance.  This is the last time.  Head 
right at the first fork and then North on the next map.  Now head East, then 
as you're going up, take the West exit.  There's a chest in this room 
containing 'Blue Potion.'  Return to the previous room and make your way 
North.  Run up the path and open the chest to find 'Blue Potion.'  Now take 
the West exit.  Follow the linear path West, then South when you come out on 
the next screen.  Proceed thorugh the door leading East and dash jump onto the 
platform.  From there you can hop up and get the 'Capla Water' fro mthe 
treasure chest.  Jump back and enter the previous room.  If you think you're 
prepared for a miniboss fight, equip yourself and head South.

This boss fight is going to move quickly, I suggest you equip things to help 
your defense because some of the attacks can be powerful, you'll also want 
protection against almost every status effect because all types of slimes are 
going to appear.  Use jump attacks while you don't have magic, but the instant 
you DO have magic let loose all of it, for every sword.  Before you know it 
the boss is dead, either that or you are.  Leave this room to the North and 
then North again.  Drop down the ledge on your left and continue North.  Head 
North at this next little junction as well.  Watch the scene when you exit.
