In Giza Plains run straight forward and you'll find yourself in the Nomads Village. Here talk with Masuya [screen 1] and then with Camina - kind standing near the seller [screen 2]. Now go south and save your progress. Your task is to find Jinn, who went missing. You'll find him on a small piece of land south from the village. Talk to him and pick the option "Explain Situation". The kid will tell you how to make a sunstone out of shadestone. Now save the progress and pick 3 out of 4 Dark Crystals (they're marked by exclamation marks on your map).
While hunting here look out for two Werewolves. They're pretty strong and won't give and chances to fight back (at least for now). Also if you want to kill an Alpha Hyena make sure that you've full HP - it always attacks with two ordinary hyenas.
You'd do good exploring the area for treasures, because except for ordinary ones like gil or potions you can find e.g. Ether, Hi-potion or the Escutcheon shield.
The bar under the map shows level of energy stored inside of the crystal. In order to make it 100% you'll need to find three big, glistening stones called the Dark Stones. |
To collect energy from a dark crystal you'll need to get close to one and use a shadestone on it. Next pick the option "Hold the Shadestone up to the crystal". After you accumulate 100% of energy you'll see a cut-scene. You'll regain control again back in the Nomad Village. Now return to Rabanastre.
Get back to Dalan's Place and talk o him. He'll give you the Cresent Stone. Now go to the Garamsythe Waterway north from Lowtown. Talk there with Kytes. Tell him that you want to get inside. He'll open the door on the left side and give you 2x Potion and 4x Eye drops. Go downstairs.
