[BONEVIL: Bone Village] Main area of the village at the southern tip of the northern continent

Talk to the guy near the entrance

Welcome to Bone Village, a town for nature lovers.

Before coming out of Temple of the Ancients

What do you want?

Have you seen Sephiroth?

Oh, the man in a Black Cape. He was looking for the Temple of the Ancients.

The Temple of the Ancients?

It's way down south. It's right on the other side between this town and the inland sea.

It's the pyramid that rises within the forest.

How do you get in?

You'll need a Keystone.

What's a Keystone?

Just like it sounds. A rock that's a key. I heard that some rich guy has it.

Oh, yeah, I know

That's enough

Thanks

What are you doing?

We're excavating. It's like the land's telling a history of the planet.

After coming out of Temple of the Ancients, before Meteor is summoned

What do you want?

Where is the City of the Ancients?

The City of the Ancients? Oh, you must mean the Forgotten City.

Do you know where Aeris is?

Are you talking about that girl? I warned her, but she went into the Sleeping Forest anyway.

What are you doing?

We're excavating. It's like the land's telling a history of the planet.

After Meteor is summoned

You need something?

Are you going to run away??

We've already learned about everything that has happened from the beginning of this Planet through fossils.

Now, we want to see on through to the end of the Planet... It's such a mixed feeling...

What are you doing?

We're excavating. It's like the land's telling a history of the planet.

Talk to the guy sitting down

Before coming out of Temple of the Ancients

Want to buy something?

After coming out of Temple of the Ancients

The Lunar Harp is somewhere in the ground here. We could excavate it for you if you want us to.

Start diggin'

This choice will only affect the direction digging staff will turn. You can still get any treasure no matter what.

It's not just the Lunar Harp you're after. What else are you having us dig for?

Lunar Harp

If you already have it

That's already been excavated.

Good treasure

Normal treasure

All right! Then I'll lend you some of my staff. Show us where you want us to dig!

[BONEVIL2: Bone Village] During the excavation minigame

Please push the [Square] Button to set our staff in position.

The location of treasures never changes. You don't need to place any guys if you know where to dig.

Order a search (100 gil)

You can do this a maximum of 5 times

If you don't have enough money

Could not position the staff, due to a lack of funds.

Done

Press the [Square] Button to ignite the bomb for the search.

Each staff member will calculate the tremors and face the buried item. In other words, the point where the staff's line of vision meets is the Dig Point.

Select the Dig Point by moving to the point and pressing the [Square] Button. The staff will dig and search for the item.

Go to the place with the treasure you're looking for, and press Square

Now, the staff will dig here. The result of the dig will be placed in the town treasure box over night.

I want to buy something

Not right now

Talk to the girl wearing purple on the left side of upper level

Before Meteor is summoned

The forest just beyond here is called the Sleeping Forest. Right now the forest is asleep and anyone who wanders in while it's asleep, it confuses. You can go in, but you may never come out...

After coming out of Temple of the Ancients

But just now, a girl in pink and a man in a Black Cape went in. You think they'll be all right?

After Meteor is summoned

It, it's scary......

Talk to the guy in green on the left side of upper level

Excavating is a slow process. The treasures we excavate are stored in the box next to the tent. Remember that.

Everything already excavated is in the box up there next to the tent.

Talk to the guy in green on the right side of upper level

Before Meteor is summoned

You can awaken the Sleeping Forest if you have the Lunar Harp.

Once awake, they say the forest will open a road for you.

After coming out of Temple of the Ancients

The girl in pink that just went in also used a Lunar Harp to get through.

I want a Lunar Harp

Ask the guy in the tent below.

Not interested

Want to buy something? I want the Lunar Harp Don't want anything

Thanks! Now, the Forest will wake up.

Just a while ago, a young girl came to speak to me just like you.

Then the entrance to the Forest made a funny sound, like 'Grrrrrrgh!'.

I thought that maybe I could do it, too.

Please, let me in!

While a go, a man in Black came and said this as he went into the Forest.

Nnnnnnghaah!

Talk to the girl wearing purple on the right side of upper level

We use the newest system to find buried treasure. We simulate earthquakes by using bombs, and then check the sound waves given off by the tremors.

The memory of this planet is buried layer by layer in this geological stratum. Kind of romantic, don't you think?

Order a dig with the guy in the tent, then check the treasure box

The motto of this town is not to think about anything.

Just live. Eat, work, and sleep.

It's pretty hard not to think about anything.

If you learn the special qualities of the animals in the (Old Forest), there'll be nothing to fear. Do you want to hear more? Yeah, tell me Not now

What do you want to know about? About Pitcher Plants About Scent Balls About About Inchworms

It's a strange plant that hangs down from above. It usually has its mouth open to catch insects.

When an insect gets in, it closes its mouth trapping it. That lid's stronger than it looks. It's big enough for a human to get in. But it's really picky and spits out lots of stuff.

Be really cautious with this flower. It'll snap at anything. If you're going to go through here... Do it the instant it has its mouth closed.

It may not look it...or maybe it does, but this insect is really timid. If you go near it, it'll run away... If you touch it, it'll just turn in to a ball...

Cid:

Whoa...!

Yes, Cid says Tifa's line here

Hey Ancients, I don't even have a clue, what you're trying to say to me.

Cid:

What the hell's this?

Afterwards, depending on the party leader

Cloud:

...Ugh, again?

Cloud:

This stream of consciousness... Could this be the words of the Ancients...?

Cloud:

...no good. I can't understand.

Tifa:

Eaayy!? Again?

Tifa:

It speaks directly to my mind... Is this the Consciousness of the Ancients?

Tifa:

...I'm sorry. ...I can't...understand.

Cid:

Whoa, shit! Not again!

Cid:

Who is it? Who's trying to peek into my mind?

Is it the Consciousness of the Ancients?

Cloud:

...It's similar.

If you visited this place before Meteor was summoned

Cloud:

I didn't notice it the last time I came...

Cloud:

This place...is similar to the inside of the Lifestream.

Cloud:

...All the different noise.

Cloud:

...The noise doesn't go through your ears, but directly into your head.

Cloud:

It seems to mean something... but I can't quite get it. I hate not knowing what it is.

Cloud:

That's what this is similar to.

[Second party member]:

Now that you mention it...

Gaea's Cliff

[HOLU_2: Base of Gaea's Cliff] In Holzoff's cabin, by the Great Glacier

Talk to the guy

Before Meteor is summoned

(OK)button Confirm route. [Square]button Push repeatedly to raise body temperature.

To climb this cliff you must check your route.

And you have to keep your body temperature normal. Don't forget these things.

After Meteor is summoned

It's dangerous past the cliff because of the Barrier!

It's better not to go anywhere near it!!

You shouldn't go near the cliff unprepared, it's dangerous!!

Like to rest a little?

Oh yeah

No, thanks

Don't over do it.

[GAIAFOOT: Base of Gaea's Cliff] Outside Holzoff's cabin

After Meteor is summoned, if you try to go near the cliffs

Look we can't go to the cliff! So just give it up!!
