===Introduction===
[[File:Main1.1|center]]
''You are an explorer of labyrinths''
 
''On your way to a new stage of your adventures on a skyship.''
 
'''Mosken''': Welp, here we are. Welcome to
Aslarga, where you'll find the
best view around!
I'm seeing a lot of '''landsknechts''' in
the crowd this time. You guys are here
for the '''mystery dungeons''', right?
And you tourists will be here for the
'''Amber Yggdrasil''', right? They say it's
a real sight to see.
You want a closer look at it...?
Sorry, but getting up close to that
thing is easier said than done.
The winds in the mountains around that
Yggdrasil are pretty intense. Not even
I'm captain enough to make it through.
Anyway, the town's as hot as ever.
I nearly forgot it's midwinter!
Some weather we're having, huh?
...Tough crowd. Well, you're probably
tired from the trip. It did take us a
day and night to get all the way here.
If you're here to sightsee, rest up at
the inn. Otherwise, get yourselves
registered at the '''Explorers Guild'''.
 
''The Explorers Guild can now be visited!''
 
===Going in Explorers Guild===
'''Guildmaster''': Welcome to Aslarga. I am the Guildmaster
in charge of this facility. On behalf
of our provost, I welcome you.
The '''Explorers Guild''' oversees all
adventurers who stay in Aslarga to
take on the labyrinths nearby.
Without further delay, I'd like you all
to record your name and class in the
registry. We'll begin with you.
 
====After creating the first character====
'''Guildmaster''': Is everyone finished? Now, you're no
doubt in our remote town for the
infamous '''mystery dungeons'''.
If so, I'm sure you're already aware
of the rigors involved in exploring
them.
If you fall in one, you'll be dragged
back here without your '''belongings''' and
'''money'''. It's not easy to recover from.
It's not unheard of for adventurers to
leave in despair after losing the gear
they've worked so hard to refine.
But take heart. The '''Explorers Guild''' is
here to support you.
We'll now conduct an exploring lesson,
held in a genuine mystery dungeon.
Please gather at the '''Skyship Port'''.
 
===Returning to Explorer Guild without going to Skyship Port===
'''Guildmaster''': What's the matter? If you plan to take
on the dungeons, then you should be
on your way to the '''Skyship Port'''.
 
===Going to Skyship Port===
'''Mosken''': Thin crowd this time. Less than half
what we had earlier.
 
'''Guildmaster''': They probably withdrew after hearing
they'd lose their belongings. I did
mention they'd have our support...
 
'''Mosken''': It's hardly worth my while taking so
few, but oh well. We got more skyships
circulating, so there'll be more soon.
 
'''Guildmaster''': Now then, let me start by telling you
about the '''first dungeon''', which I'll
be guiding you through.
 
[[File:Main1.2|center]]
 
It's to the east of town. A man-made
wall, built for research purposes,
helps it keep its '''formicary structure'''.
That formicary structure is worth
explaining, so open your '''Dungeon Map'''.
 
[[File:Main1.3|center]]
 
Notice the two zones on '''B2F'''. This is
a unique trait of the dungeons found
around Aslarga.
Your challenge is to make your way
through this '''first dungeon''', by which
we mean reaching the lowest level.
Once you arrive at the bottom, your
skill will be acknowledged and you'll
be authorized to form your own guild.
 
''A new dungeon has been unlocked! '''1st Branch: Mysterious Labyrinth'''''
 
'''Guildmaster''': You'll be issued a '''Dungeon Map''', a '''Zone'''
'''Map''', a '''communicator''' for use during the
lesson, and a ration of '''bread'''.
Is it odd to you that we provide bread?
You'll find you get hungry quickly down
there, so we've prepared this for you.
That's enough explaining from me. We
leave as soon as you're ready, so talk
to the captain once you're prepared.
 
===In Mysterious Labyrinth (First Visit)===
====After entering the Mysterious Labyrinth====
'''Guildmaster''': Can you hear me? This is the Guildmaster
speaking. The transmitters seem to be
in working order.
Let me explain the '''Zone Map''' you see on
the lower screen.
Normally, the Zone Map fills out as you
explore. Seeing all the rooms like this
only happens with a fort built.
Though that doesn't change the items
you'll see on it.
The '''flashing''' [[File:Etrian 1 - Player Map Icon.png]] is you. [[File:Etrian 1 - Upstairs Map Icon.png]] indicates
an upstairs, while [[File:Etrian 1 - Downstairs Map Icon.png]] is a downstairs.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Item Map Icon.png]] marks the location of items.
You can see that there's an item in
your current room. Go ahead and pick
that up.
 
====After picking up the item in the first room of the first floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': Ah, you've found a '''Short Sword'''. It's an
improvement over the '''Knife''' you have.
I recommend '''changing equipment'''.
To change equipment, first press X to
open the menu.
After that, choose a weapon from '''Items''',
or go to '''Party''' and select '''Equipment'''
from there.
 
====After entering the second room of the first floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': Did you check your Zone Map? Make a
habit of always checking it as soon
as you enter a room.
If you take a look at your Zone Map
now, you'll notice an item to the
'''upper right'''.
You can reach it quickly with '''diagonal'''
'''movements'''. Hold R and move in that
direction to ensure you travel diagonally.
 
====After picking up the item in the second room of the first floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': The item you just picked up is a '''Medica'''.
This '''restores a bit of HP''', making it
indispensable for exploration.
But you can't let your guard down.
If your HP reaches 0 and you pass out,
you'll lose it without getting to use it.
You might regret holding onto it for too
long. '''Use items before getting knocked'''
'''out'''. That's the number one rule.
 
====After entering the third room of the first floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': I see you've run into a '''monster'''. You can
see it for yourself on the Zone Map.
The [[File:Etrian 1 - Monster Map Icon.png]] represents its position.
Before you engage the monster, let me
explain '''turns''' for you.
[[File:Main1.4|center]]
All actions in the dungeon are measured
in turns. Each turn, both you and the
monsters act. You always act first.
[[File:Main1.5|center]]
For example, when you '''move one space'''...
[[File:Etrian 1 - Turn-based combat tutorial 5.png|center]]
The monster moves one space afterwards.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Turn-based combat tutorial 6.png|center]]
When you '''attack''' the monster...
[[File:Main1.6|center]]
The monster attacks afterwards.
[[File:Main1.7|center]]
Seen another way, it also means that
'''if you take no action, neither will'''
'''the monster'''.
In the mystery dungeons, '''one move''' can
make '''all the difference'''. Think carefully,
especially when you're in a tight spot.
Once the monster is dispatched, head for
the downstairs, indicated by the [[File:Etrian 1 - Downstairs Map Icon.png]].
After that, best of luck to you.
 
====After entering the fourth room of the first floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': Check your HP before using those stairs.
It's possible that you'll immediately
encounter monsters on the other side.
If you were wounded earlier, but your HP
has recovered, it must be because of
'''natural HP recovery'''.
HP recovers slowly with each turn. Even
if you have yet to fully recover, you
should be fine without needing a '''Medica'''.
If you still haven't fully recovered,
'''wait'''. Hold B and repeatedly press A
to pass turns as you naturally recover.
While waiting, pay attention to the '''Zone'''
'''Map'''. Be careful not to get caught off
guard by monsters as the turns pass.
 
====After entering the second floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': As I feared, you encountered monsters.
Two of them, in fact... This won't be
easy. The situation calls for a '''skill'''.
Skills are special actions you can use
at the cost of '''TP'''. You can spend '''skill'''
'''points''' to learn a variety of skills.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Skills Tutorial 1.png|center]]
First, press X to bring up the menu,
and then select '''Skills'''. You should see
a skills screen.
When you press X while on this screen...
[[File:Etrian 1 - Skills Tutorial 2.png|center]]
You'll arrive at the '''set skill screen''',
where a number of skills are displayed
in a tree format.
You may spend your skill points on these
skills. The '''SKILL POINTS''' to the top left
shows you how many points you have.
Spending skill points '''does not take any'''
'''turns'''. I suggest you spend them now.
If you want skills that will assist you
in battle, '''Double Strike''' is a good start.
Hm. Am I holding your hand too much...?
[[File:Etrian 1 - Skills Tutorial 3.png|center]]
If you have any questions about the
controls, check the '''control guide''' to
the top right of the lower screen.
 
====After quitting the first room of the second floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': If you'd like to move quickly through
corridors, you can '''dash'''. Try moving
while holding B.
 
====After entering the second room of the second floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': Alas, TP does not recover naturally.
However, there is a way to regain TP
without items, by using '''amber tiles'''.
Amber tiles are the '''amber-colored spaces'''
you see to your upper right. Stepping on
them restores some '''TP''' and '''FP'''.
FP measures your '''satiety'''. It depletes as
turns go by, and if it reaches '''0%''', your '''HP'''
'''will decline'''. Be sure to keep well fed.
You don't seem very hungry right now,
so try restoring your TP with those
amber tiles, and then keep moving.
 
====After entering the third floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': You've made it to '''B3F'''. It won't be long
now before you reach the final floor,
but take note of the [[File:Etrian 1 - Upstairs Right Map Icon.png]]upstairs here.
The stair icons differ depending where
they lead. [[File:Etrian 1 - Upstairs Map Icon.png]] goes to the zone directly
above, while [[File:Etrian 1 - Upstairs Right Map Icon.png]] leads to the upper right.
You've yet to visit the '''upper right zone'''.
I recommend you visit it to check for
items before proceeding to the bottom.
To check the dungeon layout, press X
to bring up the menu and then select
'''Dungeon Map'''.
 
====If the player pick the Buckler in B2F-5====
'''Guildmaster''': Ah, a '''Buckler'''. You don't have a shield
equipped yet. This is a stroke of luck!
Had you decided to ignore this zone,
you wouldn't have found that shield.
Going the extra mile sometimes pays off.
 
====After entering the last floor of the dungeon====
'''Guildmaster''': Good work getting this far. You've proven
yourself worthy of challenging the
mystery dungeons.
Return to town with the '''Geomagnetic Pole'''
in front of you. The [[File:Etrian 1 - Geomagnetic Pole Map Icon.png]] on the Zone Map
shows the Pole. Press A to return to town.
 
==Second Dungeon==
===After completing Mysterious Labyrinth===
'''Guildmaster''': You acquitted yourself well in the
'''Mysterious Labyrinth'''. I'd say it's
time you had a guild of your own.
A '''guild''' is a pack of adventurers. Its
members share information and rewards,
and look after one another.
The allies you'll gather will operate
under the banner of your guild. Which
is why you must first give it a name.
 
====After entering the guild name====
'''Guildmaster''': The [guild] Guild, hm? A fitting
name, for you. I'll make sure to
remember it.
It's very dangerous to enter a dungeon
alone. Be sure to recruit some members
and '''create a party''' before exploring.
You can recruit members by '''registering'''
'''them''' here at the Guild, or by talking
to people you meet in the dungeon.
You can have a '''maximum of four members'''
'''in a party''' at once. If you find three
more allies, that's enough for a party.
If finding members yourself is too much
trouble, I'll introduce you to a few
who are eager to join a guild.
I don't normally make introductions
like this, though. Think of this as
a special favor.
 
====After quitting the menu to register new adventurers====
'''Guildmaster''': Lastly, I present you with this '''Blast'''
'''Skill''' tome, as congratulations on the
formation of your guild.
 
''Obtained a Skill Manual!''
 
'''Guildmaster''': A '''Blast Skill''' is a special technique
shared between members of your guild.
They're learned through '''manuals''', and most
of the skills are usable by anyone in
your party.
To activate a Blast Skill, you must
charge your '''Blast Gauge'''. There are
two ways of doing this.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Blast Skills Tutorial 1.png|center]]
To activate a Blast Skill, you must
charge your '''Blast Gauge'''. There are
two ways of doing this.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Blast Skills Tutorial 2.png|center]]
The first way is to defeat monsters,
and the second is to step on amber.
You'll do both things frequently within
the dungeons, so don't hesitate to use
your Blast Skills when you need to.
If you're thinking of going to a dungeon
to test the Blast Skill, be sure to '''set'''
'''your party''' before you go. That is all.
 
===When quitting Explorers Guild===
'''Guildmaster''': Are you satisfied with your party
formation? A slapdash party will only
make the going hard for you.
It's not enough to pick a team. You must
adjust each member's equipment and '''skill'''
'''set''' to be properly prepared.
Don't forget to spend the '''skill points'''
you earn from leveling up as you go.
 
'''''Kasumi's Inn''' can now be visited!''
 
===When going in Kasumi's Inn===
'''Kasumi''': Oh dear--why, you're covered in mud!
You look as though you're fresh from
adventuring, hm?
Our warmest welcome to you, explorers.
I am Kasumi, proprietress of this inn.
We have a gift prepared for those who
stay with us, to bring them good
fortune in battle. Please accept this.
 
''Obtained '''Ariadne Thread''' x3!''
 
'''Kasumi''':  This '''Ariadne Thread''' is something that
allows one to escape safely from a
labyrinth.
'''One''' should be enough per trip.
If you have more, we can keep them
safe for you in our inn's storage.
Now then, why don't you let us take
your things to your room while you
relax?
 
===When quitting Kasumi's Inn===
'''Kasumi''':  Are you stepping out? If you're shopping
for equipment, food, or sundries, there
are many shops in the Market District.
If you're looking for recommendations,
I suggest '''Chano Retail'''.
It's very popular with adventurers.
The clerk there, Elizabeth, is simply
a dear. Though you may be unprepared
for her fashion sense...
 
'''''Chano Retail''' can now be visited!''
 
===When going in Chano Retail===
'''Elizabeth''': Welcome! I do believe this is your
first time here. I am Elizabeth.
This is a factory outlet run by Chano
Industries, manufacturer of skyships
and fine armaments.
Let me explain our system. You'll no
doubt come into possession of many
types of '''materials''' in your adventures.
Slain monsters may yield up bones, or
hides, or suchlike. And the earth will
give up its ores, timber, and herbs.
We will eagerly '''purchase''' these materials
from you, and in return, provide you
with wondrous new items based on them.
Better materials translate directly
into better goods. So make an effort
to collect materials, hmm?
Your bounty will be greater if you
train in foraging skills such as
'''Mineralogy''', '''Dendrology''', and '''Herbology'''.
 
===When quitting Chano Retail===
'''Elizabeth''': Oh! Tell me, have you met Mr. Magan?
He is our town provost. I daresay you
should go and make your introductions.
 
'''''Magan's House''' can now be visited!''
 
===When going in the Skyship Port===
'''Mosken''': If you're off to the first dungeon, look
out. Someone fooled with the stabilizer
and it's played havoc with the place.
They're saying the structure has changed
and there's '''traps''' around now. It won't be
the piece of cake that you remember.
You good with the '''party''' you have now?
'Cause things could go south if your
equipment or skills aren't up to par.
 
===When going in Magan's House===
'''Sasha''': Thanks for showing me the flowers in
your yard, Mr. Magan. I can't wait
to visit again! 'Bye!
 
'''Magan''': Goodbye, Sasha. Come again soon.
Oh...
...Guild [guild], I presume.
Welcome to my home.
I am Magan, provost of this town.
I'm sincerely glad you've come.
Here in Aslarga, we've been experimenting
with measures to support adventurers
like yourselves.
Such as '''forts''', which serve as a front-
line base when exploring dungeons. Or
our '''redevelopment initiative'''...
They're both still in the planning
phases, but they'll be invaluable aid
on your adventures someday soon.
...Is it strange to you that a town
would work to support adventurers?
It is necessary... to prepare for the
'''Day of Reckoning'''.
To gird ourselves for the '''Day of'''
'''Reckoning''', we will need many adventurers
making extended stays in our town.
Merely developing the town won't be
enough. Our developments will be for
nothing if we are unprepared.
The Guildmaster taught me that.
I... wouldn't have ever thought of it.
Not even as town provost.
I can understand why some believe we'd
be better served with him as provost.
If he'd had the post one year ago...
 
'''Chano President''': Mr. Magan! Mr. Magan, do you have a spare moment
to talk?
 
'''Magan''': I'm sorry, Sir Chano. I already have
guests...
 
'''Chano President''': Ah, and they're adventurers, by the
look of them. All the better! They
should hear this too.
We use the bottom of the '''second dungeon'''
as a quarry, don'tcha know, and they
say a monster's been sighted there.
It's keeping us from gathering the
materials we need, so I'd like you to
issue a mission to vanquish the thing.
If the shortage continues, it'll delay
work on the fort. Don'tcha know what
a problem that'd be, Mr. Magan?
 
'''Magan''': Yes, I'm aware of the issues that could
cause. However... our coffers aren't
full enough to offer a reward.
Particularly, Sir Chano, since I've just
paid Chano Industries the production
costs for the extra skyship.
 
'''Chano President''': Pish-tosh! Leave the reward to me.
You there!
How much would I have to offer you to
accept a mission to dispose of this
monster?
 
> "1000en"
* '''Chano President''': Done. Just as you requested, I'll have 1,000--no, 2,000en ready for you.
> "500en"
* '''Chano President''': An adventurer needn't hold back! I'll have 1,000--no, 2,000 en ready for your reward.
> "0en"
* '''Chano President''': Nonsense! You'd be risking your life doing this, don'tcha know. I can't allow you to walk into danger for free. I'll have 1,000--no, 2,000en ready as your reward.
'''Chano President''': Well, Mr. Magan, I hope you'll issue
that mission. And you lot ought to take
it--I'll make you rich, don'tcha know!
 
'''Magan''': He never takes no for an answer...
This will be your first time accepting
a '''mission''', won't it?
Accepting missions at '''this house''' gives
you the right to earn the associated
reward.
Once the mission is complete, return
here to report in. I'll need that report
before I can issue the reward.
If you'd like, you can accept that
mission now, so long as you're here.
Are you interested?
 
===After going in Chano Retail after the mission Fiend in the second dungeon is available and without accepting it===
'''Elizabeth''': You've met my father!? Yes... I am
Don Chano's daughter. Er... what did
you and he...
...I see. So that's what inspired the
new mission...
 
===Accepting the mission Fiend in the second dungeon===
'''Magan''': This concludes the mission registration
process. Unlike your first foray, there
will be '''traps''' in the dungeon now...
And I've heard an unsettling rumor. They
say the '''Ariadne Thread''' has no effect at
the bottom of the second dungeon.
Ariadne Threads are useful devices for
extricating oneself from a dungeon.
If these rumors are true... you will
be unable to instantly escape from the
lowest level. Bear that in mind.
 
''A new dungeon has been unlocked!
'''2nd Branch: Emerald Copse'''''
 
===Going to Skyship Port after accepting the mission Fiend in the second dungeon===
'''Mosken''': It's tougher than the first. Better be
sure about your '''party''' and '''equipment''',
or you'll run into trouble quick.
 
===In Emerald Copse===
====After entering Emerald Copse====
'''Guildmaster''': This is the Guildmaster speaking. Since
this is your first trip as a party, I'll
explain the '''Change Leader''' function.
One party member acts as the '''leader''',
and will guide the rest of the group
on your adventures.
The leader can be changed at any time.
You can escape from tough situations
by '''changing leaders'''.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Change Leader tutorial 1.png|center]]
For example, say that a weaker party
member is surrounded by monsters.
In that case, you would make the weak
member your leader and move them to
the rear, out of harm's way.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Change Leader tutorial 2.png|center]]
To change leaders, hold L and then press
R. The leader will switch each time you
press R.
Changing leaders '''does not''' take a turn,
so you can try it right now. Good luck,
[guild] Guild.
 
====After entering floor 4====
'''Guildmaster''': This is the Guildmaster speaking.
Pardon me for interrupting your
adventure.
You may already know, but I wanted to
mention '''spread tiles''' to you.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Spread Tiles tutorial 1.png|center]]
Did you notice any amber tiles that were
a faded red? Those are '''spread tiles'''.
How you use them can affect the result
of your excursions, just as much as
'''changing leaders''', so pay close attention.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Spread Tiles tutorial 2.png|center]]
First, stand on the spread tile and press
either L or X to bring up the menu. Then
select '''Party''', and then '''Spread Out'''.
Afterward, your party will spread out to
the tiles surrounding the spread tile.
You can '''change the spread formation as'''
'''many times as you'd like'''. Once you have
your ideal formation, press A to confirm.
After confirming the formation, spreading
out takes one turn. The whole party moves
during this turn, which is useful.
However, don't overrely on spread tiles.
They can break at any time while being
used, but even broken ones have their use.
[[File:Etrian 1 - Spread Tiles tutorial 3.png|center]]
They restore TP to the '''whole party''', '''more'''
'''than a normal amber tile''' would. That can
be quite a boon.
Now, back to your excursion. Remember
changing leads and spread tiles, and make
the most of both.
 
====After reaching the last downstairs, in floor 6====
You reach the stairs down to the lowest
level. The unknown beast claiming the
mine should be beyond those steps.
You hear a faint sound of running water
from below, and an occasional rumbling
noise, like a giant treading the earth.
