Godfree/Relationships

## Allies

### Kayaba Akihiko

While interaction between Godfree and Heathcliff is not shown at all, it is implied that Heathcliff hates Godfree's Shakespeare impression and roleplaying as much as Kirito and Kuradeel does. It also implied that Heathcliff sent Kirito to Godfree to humiliate him.

### Kazuto Kirigaya

Kirito was very annoyed with Godfree's chipper knight persona, particularly due to his snarky comment about his loss against Heathcliff. Kirito's opinion on Godfree didn't improve when Godfree planned to bring Kuradeel on their training exercise to "smooth things over" between them. Never the less, Kirito seemed shocked by Godfree's death.

### Asuna Yuuki

Asuna was very annoyed with Godfree's chipper knight persona, especially due to him not making the best first impression of their Guild for Kirito. After Godfree was killed by Kuradeel, Asuna did not seem to care.

## Enemies

### Kuradeel

Kuradeel was one of Godfree's comrades. Godfree took it upon himself to bring Kuradeel along on Kirito's training exercise to "smooth things over" with them, saying that Kirito should respect his elders, only for Kuradeel to point out that he's 26, much to Godfree's awkwardness. At the halfway point, Kuradeel killed Godfree for being annoying, comparing it to "running Shakespeare through a woodchipper", and to get rid of the only witness of his planned murder of Kirito.

Kibaou/Relationships

## Allies

### Diabel

Not much is known about Diabel's relationship with Kibaou, but it is shown that Diabel did not like him. They seem to have met prior to the Boss strategy meeting, and Kibaou seemed to have left a bad impression on Diabel. Diabel was confused by Kibaou's claims against the beta testers, and demanded evidence to back them up, which Kibaou did not have. Oddly enough, Kibaou seemed to be upset when Diabel died, hinting that the hatred might have been one sided.

## Enemies

### Kazuto Kirigaya

Kirito and Kibaou didn't interact much, Kirito didn't have a very high opinion of him. Kibaou was one of the players who tried to interject with Kirito's rant after he defeated Illfang, only for Kirito to shoot his arguments down. When Kirito found out he had amassed a vast amount of power Kirito was shocked, and asked how it was allowed to happen.

### Tiffany

Tiffany was one of the players who argued against Kibaou's beliefs. Due to his intimidating presence and oddly feminine name, Kibaou didn't know how to talk to him, and was forced into silence.

### Thinker

Thinker was Kibaou's main opponent during his rise to power. Despite the fact that Thinker only wanted to unite their Guild in peace, and the fact that Thinker wasn't very bright, Kibaou saw Thinker as a threat to his plans, and plotted to get rid of him. Kibaou took advantage of Thinker's naivety and trapped him in a Secret Dungeon, hoping the Boss would kill him. Not much is known what happened to their relationship after this.

### Yulier

Yulier was against Kibaou in the civil war of their Guild. Not much is known about their relationship, but Yulier had an intense hatred of Kibaou due to him being against Thinker, calling him a "contemptible creature" and a "vile snake".

Johnny Black

“
That's what I keep telling him! But the high-paying clients won't touch us. They take *one look* at Reverend Killjoy over here, and think we're a bunch of *crazy* people!
”

—Episode 6, Johnny Black

**Johnny Black** (ジョニー・ブラック, *Jonī Burakku*) was a player of Sword Art Online. He was a member of Laughing Coffin.

## Appearance

Johnny was a very thin young man. He wore tight-fitting black leather armor, thin black pants, black leather studded boots, armored gloves, and a black mask resembling a sack with holes cut for eyes. Like most of the Laughing Coffin, he wore a dark colored hooded cloak and a mask.

## Personality

While he presents himself as a deranged psychopath, Johnny is actually an easily annoyed, greedy opportunity grabber. While he does have a... *very* creative imagination when it comes to killing people, he's more concerned with the money side of things, and hated the fact that Jeffrey was squandering the potential opportunity on sticking to, what he believes to be, a stupid gimmick. It was by using this weakness that Kirito was able to trick the Guild into giving their secret base away.

## Differences from the Original

In the original the psychotic personality isn't an act, that's what he's really like. He isn't a killer for the sake of the money, he does it for the fun of it, as such he isn't tricked by Kirito into making an ad that gave away their secret base. One example of what he's really like is he once told one of their targets to kill their friends and they'd let them live as a reward, before killing them anyway.

## Quotes

"***\*Sigh\*** Boss, I get what you're going for. Bible quoting serial killer. It's a great motif. Classic... But... it's a big book. They're not all gonna be gems.*"
—Johnny Black arguing with Jeffrey.

"*Boss won't get off your back? Girlfriend won't stop nagging you? Did that fuckstick Tiffany sell you a bullshit dagger that broke almost immediately, despite the fact you spent half your goddamn Col on it? Have you considered... murder? Here at Laughing Coffin Industries, we believe that any problem can be solved with just a little application of sword violence...*"
—Johnny Black narrating the Laughing Coffin ad.

## Voice Actor

* In the Japanese dub, Johnny Black is voiced by Ryōta Ōsaka.
* In the English dub, Johnny Black is voiced by Alejandro Saab.
* In the abridged series, Johnny Black is voiced by Sonicring123Dubs.

## Trivia

Coupled with the Unique Skill, Divine Blade, which allows players to freely switch between offense and defense, the player who used them would have a near impenetrable defense in battle. When not in use, the sword is attached to inner side of the shield and the shield can also be used to hit targets.

## Synopsis

### Aincrad Arc

#### Pre-Episode 9

After Kayaba realized that the players were too stupid to survive the game on their own, he logged into the game under the name "Heathcliff" and gave himself the shield and sword combo weapon, as well as the Unique Skill Divine Blade, in order to make the game easier for himself as he guided the players through the game.

When the King and Heathcliff eventually managed to come to an agreement, Heathcliff rallied the players to fight the next Boss. However, Kirito did something to anger the King and Heathcliff was forced to hurry up the Boss Raid. When The Skull Reaper revealed itself, Heathcliff drew his sword and attempted to rally the players, but The Skull Reaper glitched out and died before they could fight it.

When Kayaba was exposed, Kirito criticizes Kayaba's Heathcliff persona, pointing out how childish it was to give himself an invincible sword and shield that's better than anything else in the game, before challenging Kayaba to a duel so the players could be freed. Kayaba managed to destroy Kirito's Sunlight Heart, before accidentally killing Asuna followed soon by Kirito himself. But Kirito managed to stab Kayaba before his death with Asuna's Lambent Light, bringing SAO to an abrupt end.

Kirito revealed that the reason that he didn't turn up was because he decided to level up his Alchemy Skill by eating some weird plant, and as a result he was high as a kite. Asuna tried once again to scold him for being responsible for the deaths that occurred because of his absence, but Kirito dismissed her claims, and instead invited her to watch the stars that could not be seen with her eyes. Realizing she was going nowhere with Kirito, Asuna decided to wait for him to sober up, but soon got bored and decided to sleep next to him.

After Kirito awoke and noticed Asuna actually sleeping on the ground, having forgotten that he had the conversation with her, he decided to take advantage of the situation a draw cat whiskers on her face. About eight hours later, at dusk, Asuna awoke. Asuna spotted Kirito watching her with a smile on his face and assumed that he did something. She was about to attack Kirito but ultimately stopped herself when she realized that she was imagining a completely different situation that what actually happened.

Floria

**Floria** (フローリア, *Furōria*) is the main settlement on the 47th Floor of Sword Art Online.

## Description

As its name suggests, Floria, just like the whole Floor, is covered in different kinds of flowers with various petals floating in the air. Due to its theme, Floria has become a favorite place for couples to spend time in, with only a few single players wandering in the town.

#### Episode 13

One day, Kirito logged into ALO to try and save Asuna, but due to a glitch in the system, he ended up crashing into the Antient Forest instead of the Spriggan Capital. After browsing through his window and confirming that the logout button was there, he discovered that his stats were identical to those that he had in Sword Art Online. He also found that he had a lot of unidentified items, among which he discovered Yui, and thus materialised her. After a conversation, during which Yui revealed that she faked her death, Yui forced Kirito to take off in order to save Asuna faster.

Meanwhile, Leafa travelled through the Ancient Forest to avoid going to her engagement party. However, she was attacked en route by a group of Salamanders, who eventually cornered her. After the Salamanders broke character to criticize Leafa's persona, Kirito crash landed near them.

#### Episode 14

Unbeknownst to Kirito, Leafa had figured out that he was he was her real life brother, and was convinced he was in the game to mess with her, so had decided to mess with him by sending him on an annoying wild goose chase. She led Kirito to a section of the forest that she claimed was Safe Zone, but was actually the territory of the "Forest Folk". After she tricked Kirito into logging out, Yui took the opportunity to set Leafa right before she could do anymore damage. But even then, Leafa refused to believe the story, due to being too coincidental, so Yui decided to remove her face until she cooperated.

When Kirito logged back in, Yui told Kirito that Leafa had decided to take a shortcut through Kandy Kane Kavern to make it to the Sylph-Cait Sith alliance negotiation conference and recruit both races for their crusade.

The headset has a purple visor, under which has a port that allows players to plug in a wire to charge the battery, or to have extended play sessions.

## History

Following the SAO disaster, the VR industry became a minefield that no company wanted to be a part of. But eventually, RECT Progress bought the SAO servers, in order to keep the players alive for PR reasons, and to use the NerveGear technology to construct a new VR Console, which they later dubbed the AmuSphere.

The console was released within a year of SAO's release, along with a launch title called ALfheim Online. However, upon its release, no one wanted to buy the console, due to a mixture of confusing advertisements for ALO and the fact that the SAO disaster was still fresh in the people's minds. Luckily, four months before the defeat of Kayaba Akihiko, a group of roleplayers discovered the game and saw it as the perfect place to live out their campaign, and the game, and its console, became a sensation.

## Usage

To use the AmuSphere, the player wears the game console over their head. Then it is recommended for the player to find a comfortable position to station the body, usually a bed. Afterwards, the game will load upon utterance of the initiation words, "Link Start".

Corvatz

“
Hola amigos. I am General Corvatz of the Aincrad Liberation Front. *Champion* of the people. *Fighting* for a free and democratic Aincrad.
”

—Corvatz, Episode 8

**Corvatz** (コーバッツ, *Kōbattsu*) was a player of Sword Art Online. He was a General in the Aincrad Liberation Front.

## Appearance

Corvatz was a tall man who seems to be in his late thirties, has a sharp face, very short dark hair and a pair of sharp eyes below his thick eyebrows. As a general of the Aincrad Liberation Front, he wears a set of very high-quality, heavy armor with a crest in the shape of Aincrad engraved on it, complete with a helmet and a red cape to distinguish himself from his men. In battle, he wields a one-handed straight sword and a heavy shield.

## Personality

Corvatz often presented himself as a skilled, brave, noble and experienced leader and brilliant strategist, but in actuality he was an extremely boastful, arrogant and egotistical noob with poor leadership skills.

While Corvatz believed in his men and encouraged them to fight, they did not feel the same way due to his incompetence and poor leadership, as he often neglected to give them time to rest as well as ordering them go straight into a higher-level Boss Room despite being underprepared.

He was extremely dedicated to his Hispanic persona, as he believed it boosted his men's moral, despite the clear signs that it did the opposite and annoyed them.

## Differences from the Original

In the original his name is spelt "*Kobatz*", and he was an arrogant man who believed that he was entitled to whatever he wanted since the ALF had helped players in the past. In the abridged version, he presents himself as valiant hero fighting for both the people and for glory.

He doesn't talk like a Spaniard nor are his words punctuated with Spanish guitar. He also isn't a General in the Aincrad Liberation Force in the original, he was a Lieutenant-Colonel, he isn't implied to have been one of the players who fought the Illfang, and it's never stated that Kobatz was from Nagano.

The conversation he has with Kirito, Asuna and Klein is mostly the same, except for the fact that the reason Kobatz talked to them in the first place was because Kirito had a complete map of the area, which Kobatz demanded Kirito give to him.

## Quotes

"*Oh, so you doubt the great Corvatz? **\*Laughs\*** Ignorant* fool*! I'm one of the greatest minds the ALF has ever known! My brilliant Boss clearing strategy has never* failed *to defeat a foe.*"
—Corvatz to BallsDeep69, Asuna and Kirito

"*Very well! Watch closely, for one day, you shall tell your grandchildren of the day you witnessed the great Corvatz in action! Now, men! Group up... and hit it 'til it DIES!!!*"
—Corvatz revealing his brilliant Boss clearing strategy

## Voice Actor

* In the Japanese dub, Kobatz is voiced by Tetsu Inada.
* In the English dub, Kobatz is voiced by Joshua Tomar.
* In the abridged series, Corvatz was voiced by Cheesemanjoe before being replaced by KaggyFilms.

The Dungeon starts after crossing a bridge that crosses over a small stream and has no forks in the path that leads the way to the end of the Dungeon. Many plant-type monsters spawn in the flower bed that lines the path.

## Synopsis

### Aincrad Arc

#### Episode 4

On February 24, 2024, Kirito and Silica came to this Dungeon to obtain the Pneuma Flower, in hopes of reviving the latter's Feathered Little Dragon, Pina. As soon as they enter the Dungeon, Silica was attacked by various plant monsters and nearly. Eventually, Silica and Kirito come across a flower on a pedestal. Silica believed this was the Pneuma Flower, but Kirito clarified that it was only one of many flowers they need to collect in order to enter another Dungeon where they'll eventually find the real flower.

After defeating the numerous Bosses and retrieving the flower, the two of of them headed home. But Kirito stopped Silica and called out to the people hiding behind the trees, ordering them to reveal themselves. Rosalia stepped out from behind the tree, demanding her Pneuma Flower. Rosalia revealed herself to be the leader of the Orange Guild Titan's Hand, a Guild Kirito hadn't heard of. Rosalia then casually began to pick apart Kirito's "tough guy" façade, which drove Kirito to the breaking point.

Believing this meant she had won, Rosalia ordered her men to attack. Silica urged Kirito to retreat, but instead, he stepping forward to face the guild. One of the Titan's Hand members realized that Kirito seemed too unprepared for this situation, and voiced his concern. Rosalia ignored this information, and commanded her guild to attack Kirito.

After several seconds of simply standing and accepting his opponents' assault, Kirito disclosed that he was Level 74 with 14,500 hit points, and that his Battle Healing Skill healed more hit points than the amount of damage the Titan's Hand guild members were able to inflict before it completely regenerated. Rosalia attempted to belittle Kirito once more, but Kirito dashed forward and slit her throat. Before she died, Rosalia retorted that this will be the deepest Kirito will ever be in a woman, a quip Kirito wished he could have countered.

When Eugene attacked the peace conference and stated that half of the alliance would eat the other half within a week, Sakuya denied this, stating that while the Cait Sith may be delicious they are "a powerful and succulent ally", much to Hime's horror.

After Brian and Becky's argument and Becky left, Denise told Brian that she can't believe he slept with Becky, to which Brian reminded that Becky is Denise's cousin.

## Allies

### Kirito

Kirito wanted to recruit Hime in his quest to storm the World Tree, but he was quickly annoyed by Hime's overly weeby personality, particularly by the fact that Hime wanted Kirito to call her "Princess Hime-Senpai" and determined the Cait Sith army a "non-starter". Hime ultimately decided to not help him due to the wish that awaited atop the World Tree was only available to one race, though Denise couldn't remember if the wish actually exists or not.

### Leafa

Garish Gerbera

A **Garish Gerbera** (ガリッシュ・ガーベラ, *Garisshu Gābera*) is a monster that can be found on the 47th Floor in Sword Art Online.

## Appearance

A Garish Gerbera is a gigantic flower, standing up by using its roots, with a dark green stem about as thick as a human arm. The head of the flower appears to be a yellow sunflower with a wide mouth and several teeth. It has two vines sprouting from either side of its body that it uses similar to how animals use their arms.

## Behavior

Found on the path leading to the Hill of Memories in the forty-seventh floor, this man-eating flower is capable of walking with the use of its roots and attacks by using its mouth and vines. Despite its grotesque appearance, the creature is relatively weak and can easily be defeated by having a white spot under its flower head attacked.

## Synopsis

### Aincrad Arc

#### Episode 3

One of these creatures captured and attempted to swallow Silica as she and Kirito were traveling to the Hill of Memories. Though unnerved by the appearance of the monster and embarrassed by her being captured, Silica managed to defeat it, killing it with a single stab from her dagger.
Aincrad Liberation Front

The **Aincrad Liberation Front** (アインクラッド解放隊, *Ainkuraddo Kaihō-gun*) was a Guild in Sword Art Online consisting of three thousand players.

## Description

The Aincrad Liberation Front was one of the biggest Guilds in the game. But after numerous casualties the Guild devolved into a blood thirty power struggle, where the Guild members fought each other to be in charge. Eventually the two main contenders were two players named "Kibaou" and "Thinker". Thinker wanted the fighting to stop, and wanted the Guild to be fair for all. But Kibaou took advantage of this, trapped Thinker in a dungeon and took power for himself. This was presumably undone after Thinker was freed.

## Differences from the Original

In the original the Guild was called formerly known as the Aincrad Liberation Squad before being changed to the Aincrad Liberation Force. It didn't devolve into infighting because of "devastating loses", it devolved into infighting because it grew too big. Thinker was said to be their founder and leader in the original, but here it seems that he was one of many people who felt like they should be the leader.

Knights of the Blood Oath

The **Knights of the Blood Oath** (血盟騎士団, *Ketsumei Kishidan*) were the strongest Guild in Sword Art Online They were formed by Heathcliff, who is also the Commander.

## Description

The Knights of the Blood Oath were considered to be the strongest Guild in SAO. They had a large amount of members, many being very skilled players. They were formed a month after the death game started by Heathcliff, secretly Kayaba Akihiko, who wished to help the hopeless players in surviving the game. He acted as the Guild's Commander, while Asuna was the Vice-Commander of the Guild. The Guild was continually seeking out possible new members, like Kirito.

Despite its fearsome reputation, it is implied that the Guild was not as strong as it seemed. Heathcliff once mentioned that the people never followed his orders, did whatever they pleased, and blamed all their problems on Kayaba when things went bad, not knowing that he was their leader. This was apparently enough to drive Heathcliff insane.

## Differences from the Original

The Knights of the Blood Oath was just called "The Knights of the Blood" in the English Dub. "The Knights of the Blood Oath" is a direct translation of the Japanese name. It wasn't formed by Kayaba because he wanted to help the players in the original, it was all a part of the story that Kayaba was trying to tell in the game, as he planned to betray them and reveal himself at some point. Because Fluffles never existed, since there were no cat players in the original, and, as a side note, since Collinia didn't fall to ruin, nothing related to the King of Ashes happened either.
Keita

“
Hey, just because I can't play the game, doesn't mean I can't... "play the game". Wink.
”

—Keita, Episode 3

**Keita** (ケイタ, *Keita*) was a player of Sword Art Online. He was the leader of the Moonlit Black Cats.

## Appearance

Keita had short brown hair and brown eyes and was dressed in light, brown clothing with a metal chestguard, metal shoulder armour on both his shoulders, metal bracers on both of his arms. He also wore black, fingerless gloves that extended to his forearm and dark boots. Keita's trousers are of a paler shade of brown than his top. Keita's weapon of choice was a two-handed staff, but his main weapon was the Charisma Hat he occasionally wore to get other people to do what he wanted.

## Personality

Keita was a manipulative, cheating, opportunistic con artist who used any advantage he could find in the game, all while trying to keep an annoying cheery persona. He refused to take responsibility for most of his actions, as he forced his Guild to fix the problem of replacing a rare item that he stole from a Mafia while he hid somewhere else.

Despite his manipulative nature, however, it seemed like he did genuinely care for his friends to some capacity, as he committed suicide after learning that they most of them had died, but it was more than likely it was because he realized how screwed he was and decided to off himself before the Mafia could.

## Differences from the Original

In the original, Keita was a kind and generous person who wanted to save as many lives as possible and he cared greatly about his friends and put their wellbeing above all else, whereas here he more closely resembles a fast-talking con man. He also didn't have a hat that raised his Charisma stat in order to get people to do what he wants in the original.

## Voice Actor

* In the Japanese dub, Keita is voiced by Toshiyuki Toyonaga.
* In the English dub, Keita is voiced by Lucien Dodge.
* In the abridged series, Keita is voiced by SpriteStuff.

## Trivia

* The hat used for Keita's hat comes from the Studio Ghibli film "Howl's Moving Castle".
* The hat Keita uses is dropped by Nicholas the Renegade, implying that Keita was either present for a fight against the Boss at some point or conned a player who did fight it out of owning the hat.
* While not exclusive to the Fallout series, Keita's hat having a numbered amount of Charisma (50) as it's applied perk may be one of the first signs the game was made by Bethesda.
Extra Skills

**Extra Skills** (エクストラスキル, *Ekusutora Sukiru*), also known as Hidden Skills, are the kind of Weapon Skills in Sword Art Online with no clear conditions to unlock them, however, most of these skills have at least ten known users who are using them. Certain Extra Skills are limited to only one known user per skill and are therefore called Unique Skills.

## Description

Although the exact condition or the quest required to unlock these skills are not publicly known, two known ways of unlocking Extra Skills have been revealed so far. Some of these skills are unlocked by training certain regular Weapon Skills, for example, the Katana skill appears quite often, as long as the Curved Sword skill is trained. Certain other skills are acquired as quest rewards, for example, Meditation is acquired by completing a certain quest on the 6th Floor. Like Weapon Skills, most Extra Skills, including Unique Skills, have their own special Sword Skills.

It is said that ten or more Extra Skills have been discovered by the boss battle of the 74th Floor, but only five Extra Skills have been revealed in the novels so far.
Horizontal

**Horizontal** (ホリゾンタル, *Horizontaru*) is a basic, 1-hit, One-handed Sword category Sword Skill in Sword Art Online.

## Description

Horizontal consists of a single horizontal slash that is carried out by first focusing the weight of the body on the right foot before moving the sword back slightly, then lifting one's left foot due to the inertial weight of the sword and shifting the weight to the left side of the body, thus converting the strength in the swinging motion inside the legs and waist from the hands to the tip of the waist into power for the sword swing.

Lizbeth's Smith Shop

**Lizbeth's Smith Shop** (リズベット武具店, *Rizubetto Bugu-ten*) was an armory shop in Lindas owned by Lizbeth.

## Description

Lizbeth's Smith Shop was a small house, equipped with a waterwheel for support-class use. It had a terrace at the front of the shop, where a rocking chair was situated. The interior of the shop was lined with weapons shown in display cases or hung on the wall.

## Synopsis

### Aincrad Arc

#### Episode 7

On June 24, 2024, Asuna came to Lizbeth's shop to sharpen her rapier. When Lizbeth finished, her overly nosey nature drove Asuna away, begging Lizbeth to leave the shop. Moments later, Kirito entered the shop, demanding a custom-made sword, showing Lizbeth his Elucidator for comparison. Although amazed by the sword, Lizbeth showed him her best sword, forged from a speed-type material. Kirito then tested the sword's durability and ended up breaking it. Angered at the destruction of her weapon, Lizbeth demanded Kirito to leave. But when Kirito blackmailed her into making him a better sword, she agreed to do so for the sake of her pride, telling Kirito he needed to collect the necessary materials. The two then left for the Western Mountain on the 55th Floor, as the item they needed wouldn't spawn without Lizbeth.

The next day, Kirito and Lizbeth returned from their quest to forge the sword with their newly acquired Crystallite Ingot, resulting in the creation of Sunlight Heart. Kirito then asked for the price of the sword, to which Lizbeth replied that the sword was free, which confused Kirito. Just as Lizbeth was about to confess her feelings to Kirito, which she developed over the course of their quest, Asuna burst into the workshop and gripped Lizbeth in a forceful hug, threatening her to leave Kirito alone, as he was "off limits". This caused Lizbeth to run away crying out of fear.

Lizbeth later returned to her shop, having gotten over her feelings after realizing Kirito was an asshole, only to find that Asuna had burned it down in a jealous rage, with the message "You were warned" scrawled on the sign.

### Episode 8

On October 19, 2024, Lizbeth managed to retrieve some valuable scrap from the wreckage of her shop, only to destroy it when she ran away in terror from Asuna.

Lost Forest

The **Lost Forest** (迷いの森, *Mayoi no Mori*) is a random transfer field Dungeon on the 35th Floor of Sword Art Online.

## Description

The Dungeon is a vast forest located in the north of the 35th Floor. Like all field Dungeons, it is a popular target for players of average level, due to the Clearers almost entirely focusing on clearing the Labyrinth areas of each floor. As the name implies, it is easy to get lost in the forest. In addition to the forest being full of large, towering trees, which divide the forest into areas like a chess board, players within the forest will be transferred to a random area in the forest one minute after setting foot in their current area.

Additionally, if Teleportation Crystals are used within the forest, they transport the player to another area in the forest instead of a town. To exit the forest, the player must go through each area in the forest within a minute each. To help navigate through the forest, the player may purchase an expensive map from a shop in the local town. This map checks what areas the player's current area is linked to, allowing them find their way.
