[CH12]
Chapter 1-2

__ Storage Building __

Interactive cutscene:

Dodge as the axe is about to hit Leon and Luis.

Objective: Find the secret passage in the village that leads to the church.

Walk around the corridor to the side for a cutscene introducing the merchant. 
Save the game at the typewriter on the shelf then exit the building.  Walk 
around the back of the building for another cutscene involving the merchant.  
This merchant will allow Leon to buy a set of several items and he will be 
around throughout the rest of the chapter of the game.  He will carry newer 
items as the game progresses.

| [ ] Handgun Ammo  | On the shelf in the room where Leon and Luis were tied  |
|                   | up                                                      |
| [ ] Rifle Ammo    | Lying next to the typewriter                            |
| [ ] Red Herb      | Break the left wooden barrel behind the merchant        |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Sell the 7 Spinels, the Ruby, and the Pearl Pendant but none of the other 
treasures.  The others are combinable with other treasures for a greater value 
and it's best to keep them for now.  Above all else, buy the Attache Case M.  
The TMP and Rifle are more of your decision.  The TMP is much better on the Wii 
version thanks to a more precise aim - it can be a good substitute for the 
handgun.  The Rifle has some good damage, but the precision scope isn't really 
needed yet.  Don't buy the extra scope since there is absolutely no need for 
it, which is true for the entire game really.

As for upgrades, it would be good to mainly upgrade the capacity and reload 
speed for your weapons.  Seconds matter in intense fights with several Ganados 
more than damage at this point.  Upgrade the shotgun more than the handgun 
since Leon will be keeping it longer.

Walk toward the double doors in front of the building for a cutscene.

__ Mountain Village __

Open or kick open the doors - it doesn't matter, the Ganados will be all over 
Leon in just a minute anyway.  It is possible to lead Ganados through the 
double doors and blast them from the other side.  Also there are holes in the 
brick gate that Leon can shoot through.  Try to go for headshots then kick them 
off the side of the bridges.  Sometimes a Ganado will automatically fall to his 
death when he is shot on the bridge.  Try to shoot the Ganados on the high 
ledges and buildings before getting too close to them since they will throw 
dynamite or weapons from a distance.

The gate at the far north end of the village is locked and requires a medallion 
to open it, so the main objective here is to search for the two halves of the 
medallion.  One half, the ++EMBLEM (LEFT HALF)++, is on the southeast end at 
the top of a hill and the other half, the ++EMBLEM (RIGHT HALF)++ is on the 
southwest end on top of the middle building in the village.  Climb the ladder 
in the center of the middle building to get up to the rooftop.  They are both 
hidden inside of treasure chests.  Both halves are guarded by Ganados with 
throwing weapons.  
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Shotgun Ammo  | On a shelf inside the middle building (southwest end)   |
| [ ] Handgun Ammo  | On a crate inside the middle building (middle room)     |
| [ ] Flash Grenade | Open the single locker in the middle building           |
| [ ] 1000 PTAS     | Open the locker on the left inside of the small north-  |
|                   | east building                                           |
| [ ] Yellow Herb   | Open the locker on the right inside of the small north- |
|                   | east building.                                          |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

From the rooftop of the middle building, Leon can get the perfect view of the 
Ganados on the high ledges and rooftops so make sure to take advantage of this. 
A rifle could come in handy here, but still, the Wii-mote makes sniping just as 
possible with a handgun or TMP.

Once Leon has both halves of the medallion, examine the gate on the east end of 
the village then combine both halves through the menu to get the ++HEXAGONAL 
EMBLEM++.  Use the Emblem on the gate to unlock it.

__ Outside Facility __

Break the wooden barrel to the right of the entrance doors by the dumpster, 
break the two barrels down the left path.  Kick open the facility doors after 
exploring the outside of the facility.

__ Inside the Facility __

While breaking the first barrel off to the left a mask can be noticed through 
the hole in the wall to the side, but this cannot be collected until Leon moves 
deeper into the facility.  Aim at the boards on the left wall in that room to 
see that the cursor turns red while moving over them - this is the key to 
getting this.  Continue through the doors on the opposite side for now.  A wave 
Ganados will attack Leon through the next set of doors, watch for the weapon 
throwers as usual.  Step behind the crate next to the door that Leon just 
opened and let them come your way to play it safe or just go charging in!

Jump through one of the windows along the side of the wall after fighting off 
the first Ganado wave.  Ganados will stand on the other side of the room and 
toss dynamite at Leon.  The best way to approach this part is to shoot one of 
the sticks of dynamite while it is near them - this will take out the whole 
group.  Use the A button while standing behind the dumpster ("Crouch" command) 
to duck the dynamite blast.  While Leon is ducking hold the B button to make 
him aim then let go of the button to make him return to his ducking state.

Take note of the nine bear traps spread around the room and disarm them while 
running over to any pickups.  The next room with the dripping ceilings is where 
Leon can get the mask from earlier.  Break the board on the south wall then hop 
into the room and collect it.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Handgun Ammo  | Open the cover to the first fireplace on the right      |
| [ ] Spinel        | Open the cover to the second fireplace on the right     |
| [ ] Elegant Mask  | In the room with the dripping ceiling (past the room    |
|                   | with bear traps) break the wooden boards on the opening |
|                   | of the south wall and jump through the opening to find  |
|                   | this on the left                                        |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Continue through the next door and move down the stairs.  A single Ganado will 
attack near the ladder at the end.  Shoot him in the head and kick him off into 
the water for an instant kill.  Jump down into the water below for some items. 
There are quite a number of fish here and Leon can kill them and pick them up 
as items.  They will restore his health or they can be sold to the merchant.  
Throw a hand grenade into the water to kill most of them instantly.  Make sure 
that there is enough room in Leon's inventory to carry them all.  The Large 
Bass takes up about as much as a shotgun.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Handgun Ammo  | Check in the water                                      |
| [ ] Flash Grenade | Check in the water (behind the ladder)                  |
| [ ] 1000 PTAS     | Check in the water (behind the ladder)                  |
| [ ] Large Bass    | Kill it in the water then pick it up                    |
| [ ] Bass          | Kill them in the water then pick them up                |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Round up the fish then climb back up the ladder.  Climb up the next ladder.

__ Path to the Chief's House __

Turn to the left to spot a treasure hanging above the well.  Notice the 
signpost with the skulls revealing that there are traps in the area.  Shoot the 
C4 along with the 3 bear traps up ahead before moving down the path - one of 
the bear traps is on the left side just in case Leon tries to slip past the C4.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] Brass Pocket  | Shoot the plank holding up the well lid then shoot the  |
|     Watch         | pocket watch.  Retrieve it while it is on the lid top   |
| [ ] Extra PTAS    | Shoot the crows along the path ahead (the C4 can kill   |
|                   | the furthest two)                                       |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Walk up the stairs of the house at the top of the hill.  At the top and to the 
side is a door that requires Leon to rotate the large crystal ball on the door 
so that it matches up with the Illuminados symbols along the sides.

-- SOLUTION: Rotate it UP then LEFT.

__ Chief Mendez's House __

The door will slide away and allow Leon into the house.  Walk inside and search 
the room for goodies.
/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------\
| [ ] 1000 PTAS     | Inside of the closet to the right just as Leon enters   |
| [ ] Handgun Ammo  | Check the left drawer of the desk to find this          |
\-----------------------------------------------------------------------------/

Pick up the --INSIGNIA KEY-- from the open box on the dresser across from the 
entrance.  This is the key that will allow Leon into that one locked building 
back in Pueblo Village.  Collect the ++CHIEF'S NOTE++ file from the bed.  
Notice the window to the side of this room.  Try to break it with a knife.  It 
can't be broken, and it is indestructible for a reason.  I'll share the info 
behind this at the beginning of the next chapter so as not to spoil anything.  
Open the door for a cutscene that will end this chapter.
