Chapter 4: The Duel at Dragon Island

Finally, the town music is normal again.

At Hilda's grocery store, the C-Drinks are now replaced with EX-Drinks, which restore more HP than C-Drinks. At Jam's store, the JamBread and Biscuit will be available, and they are good at restoring HP and BP. Also, if you talk to Hilda, you'll find out that Mayor Govern has taken ill.

If you go knock on the door to the Mayor's House, Mrs. Govern will show up and tell you that Mayor Govern is sick and asks you to be mayor for a day. Go ahead and do it by picking the second option instead of the first, since you'll need to advance the plot. If you ask what you're supposed to do, it is implied that she knows about the Water Crest. 

From there, go down the well with the rope, then use the Water Scroll there. One side of the well will drain into the other, allowing you to refill the well.

When that happens, you'll meet Ben and Ed. They're part of the Thirstquencher Empire, and they're the ones that took the bell. They'll get angry with Musashi for returning the bell back to the church. You'll be seeing them again soon enough.

Now that part of the well area is drained, you can get some stuff. You'll find the UsedBoot in a chest, and you'll finally be able to reach the Minku here. The UsedBoot will be A-Boots, which are useless and should be sold to the Appraiser for money.

The chest on the island on the side of the well you entered from contains an OldShirt. Appraising it will reveal this to be the Legendary Vest, which cuts the amount of time it takes to charge up the attack gauge in half.

There is also a cave that you couldn't enter before activating the Water Crest. Avoid being bitten by the bats as you make your way through this area. The chest in this area contains Armor. It's just a LargePot. Sell it to Connors for money. There is a Fire Crest here, but you won't be able to use it for some time. You could climb the wall, but it leads nowhere, so this won't be an exit to any place in particular just yet. Instead, just take the exit that leads through the mine back to the village.

If you return to the well after meeting Ed and Ben, the rope will no longer be there. This is because Mrs. Govern will have returned the rope to the church, and you'll find this out from talking to her again.

If you talk to Mrs. Govern before taking care of the well, you can get a piece of pie that instantly refills your HP and BP the next time you talk to her. If you did the well before talking to Mrs. Govern, you won't get it.

Remember that one part of the forest where the stream of water was running in a circle? Use the Water Scroll on the Water Crest there, and you'll finally drain the water there. Open the chest and you'll get a pair of Glasses. Take them back to the appraiser. You'll find out these are the L-Goggles (Legendary Goggles), and with these, you can identify items without Connors' help.

When you talk to Mrs. Govern again, you'll find out that your next task is getting the Gondola fixed. You'll need three Carpenters and a Gondola Gizmo. At this point, you should have all of them rescued. As for the Gondola Gizmo, you'll have to head into the Scrap Depository in the mine to find it. Mrs. Govern will ask you to ask Wid about it. For now, though, head back to the castle and you'll find out which Carpenters are there.
