In this entry, we finally beat Crabby, then head down to a new land.
Back at Shishkebab, you'll need to talk to Crabby once you have both the plans and the family tree. When you do that, you'll expose Crabby for who he really is - one of Bio-Haz's men - and you'll have to destroy him.
Crabby has 300 HP, and he can cast Freeze 1, Bolt 1 and Sleep on you. He is also strong against Flame magic, so you can't hit him with Flame. You can use physical attacks as well as Freeze 1 to attack him. Heal up if your HP hovers anywhere near 30. Beating Crabby nets you 50 Experience and 200 Gold, and there is a chance he could drop a Med 2 scroll. Crabby tells Sam that there will be a time in his life where he will be cursed, then dies. You'll then met with Cabbage Head, who is basically re-elected at this point, then Cup Cake will tell you that you need to report to Dr. Bromide and that you must get to the gate at the border.
If you took the bribe from Crabby earlier, someone will immediately show up and take 500 Gold away from you as soon as you leave Cabbage Head's house. If you didn't, this does not occur.
Lola Leftover will come back to her home after you come back to Shishkebab and beat Crabby.
The border is north of Shishkebab, and you can fight Hedworms and Artchokes. When you reach the door, you'll automatically cross the border. Cup Cake will stay behind to keep a look out for Bio-Haz in the nation of Sushi, then give you her Pendant, which is placed in the Collar.
You'll then be in the nation of Chow Mein. Herbal Village will be very close, and Dr. Bromide's house will be in the center of town. The villagers will tell you that Dr. Bromide is a very capable doctor, and that in the town of Tuna to the northeast, the laws change every day. You'll also learn the names of two people who are going to be important very soon: Springroll and Lolly Pop.
You'll be able to buy the Leather Armor, which is better than the Wood Armor, at the store, so do that. You can also buy a Med 2 scroll as well as Bolt 1 for lightning damage at the magic shop. Bolt can also inflict the "Shocked" status ailment, which stops an enemy from moving temporarily.
When you enter the big house in the north end of town, you'll meet Lolly Pop, Dr. Bromide's daughter. She will tell you that the good doctor is not here, and has been called by Sarg of Tuna to come to the town of Tuna and has not returned from since. Springroll will show up and tell Lolly Pop that Dr. Bromide has been jailed in Tuna, then heads to Tuna against Lolly Pop's wishes.
As for monsters outside of Herbal Village, Meakmush has almost 200 HP, and is weak against Freeze magic. Beating Meakmush will net you 20 Experience and 31 Gold, but keep in mind that it will take a while early in the game to beat one up. Onionhed can cast Poison, which can do a little bit of damage randomly. Defeating it gives 18 Experience and 53 Gold. Be ready to heal as well as end the battle as quickly as possible, as Poison only wears off either on its own or at the end of a battle. Frankbite is strong against Freeze magic and gives 14 Experience and 55 Gold, and has a chance of dropping a Med 1-5 scroll.
