Gul Mountains | Disc 1 Blue Dragon Guide

Get inside the town hall. After the cut-scene, when you're inside Maro's house, go upstairs and once again enter the town hall. After another cut-scene, head outside. Marumaro will decide that he wants to accompany you on your quest. Try to leave the village for another scene, then talk to the elder. He'll open the three treasure chests in the village for you. One of them is to the left of the town hall entrance (Ordeal Ring), the second is near the upper exit from the cave (Ordeal Earring), the third one is on a little ledge where you found Maro crying earlier in the game (Flame Bracelet). Before you leave the village, visit the town hall's spell shop once more.
Near Lago Village
Head north and then east. Your goal is to reach a point that's marked on your map. Go past the Wilderness Camp and head further east. The monsters around here are fairly weak - you can train on them, but don't expect any serious XP from it. Eventually you'll see a Lazy Bear. This one can get troublesome, mostly due to a serious amount of HP he has. Defeat him and go through the part that he blocked. There's a Deevee Elixir in a chest here. At the junction turn north, then take a Grand Amethyst from a chest. Turn back and go south, towards the map marker. Take Thorn Branch and Prismatic Crystal from the chests and defeat another Lazy Bear.
A little bit further you'll have to fight yet another bear (there will be two of them this time). You'll see a gate to the right. First head left, though, and get to higher ground to find an Ordeal Bracelet. Now, get to Gul Mountains.
