5.0 Wait A Minute! Don’t Go To the Moon Just Yet!
----------------------------------------------------------------

I know you might be anxious, but let’s not be hasty. We have a few very important things to do before we venture to the moon! If you haven’t done the Land of Summons and Sylvan Cave side-quests, do those now, before stepping foot on the moon. (Sections 4.6.3, 4.6.4, and 4.65.) After you’ve done those, move on and do these very important side-quests. It should be noted that the Lunar Whale isn’t capable of going through the portal between the underworld and overworld, you’ll have to use the Falcon or Enterprise for that.

--------------
5.0.1 Fabul
--------------

This is the second part of the side quest that you should’ve started with the Sylvan Cave (section 4.6.5). After you do that, continue it with this.

After discovering Yang in the Sylvan Cave, go back to Fabul, and talk to his wife in the west tower. She’ll be surprised that her husband is in the underworld, and get upset at him, for making everyone think he was dead (or it was the onions ). She’ll give you a key item, ‘Pan’, to ‘smack that no-good in the head’ as she puts it. Then, leave Fabul, and go back to the underworld.

---------------------
5.0.2 Sylvan Cave
---------------------

When you re-enter the underworld, go back to the Sylvan Cave. It shouldn’t be too long now that you don’t have to get all the treasure. Enter the Sylph’s house, and talk to Yang. Then, an item menu will pop up. Select the Pan from the menu, and you’ll smack Yang over the head with it. The Sylphs will tell you to stop, but Yang will finally wake up. He says that he wants to sleep a little longer before his training.

The party is overjoyed that Yang is alright, and Yang says that they Sylphs saved his life. Rosa says just as he saved the party by destroying the cannons. Yang says he’ll join the party again, but the Sylphs insist that he rest. Yang says he cannot rest while the rest of them risk their lives. The Sylphs then say that they’ll fight in Yang’s place. Yang is confused, but the Sylphs say that they’ll allow Rydia to call upon them in battle any time. Rydia will then learn the Summon magic, ‘Sylph’.

With that, Yang rests again. Now exit the Sylvan Cave, and go back to the overworld, and then return to Fabul.


-------------
5.0.3 Fabul
-------------

After you whack Yang with the pan, and receive the Sylph summon, speak with Yang’s wife again in Fabul. An item menu will pop up. Select the Pan to return Yang’s wife’s frying pan. She’ll thank you, and say that this item might come in handy. She’ll then give you the ‘Knife’, and say to tell Yang not to worry about her.

So, what does this knife do, you ask? In battle, have Edge throw it to do a whopping guaranteed 9,999 damage (the highest it can go!). Due to this item’s extreme usefulness, save it for a rainy day. In fact, you may not want to use it until I tell you to.

Well, that’s it for the Sylvan Cave side-quest. Time to finish up some other stuff.
