Final Fantasy V/Sidequests

This is a list of the subquests in Final Fantasy V. Completing these is optional but you may acquire valuable items.

Pianos
This is a quests where Bartz gradually learns to play the piano by practicing in various locations.

Tule
Go to the pub a notice the dancers on stage to the east. Move the the stool next to the stage and face the dancers to get a rather special performance. (Opera fans will recognize the music for this from the aria "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle", aka "Habanera", in Bizet's Carmen.) You can now get on the stage and reach the piano. Go to the stool next to the piano and check it to start playing.

Kerwin Town
The piano is located in the northeast corner of the pub.

Karnak
The piano is located in the northeast corner of the pub, near the stairs.

Jachol
The piano is located in the northwest corner of the pub.

Crescent Town
Minstrel's House in the southeast corner of town.

Lugor Bordertown
Go to the pub, then find the hidden passage starting in the southwest corner; having the Secret ability will help with this. Follow the passage to the pub's back room to find the piano.

Moore Village
The piano is located in the north end of the pub.

Mirage
Enter the pub through the hidden door on the north side, then go down the stairs and through a small room to the outside. Go through a tunnel and enter the building next to the weapon shop. Continue north, go down the stairs, to the basement, and follow the corridor south. Finally, follow the hidden passages west to a small room with the piano.

When you have played every piano you become the "Piano Master". Return to Crescent and demonstrate what you've learned to the minstrel, then talk to him to learn the LVL Song.

Around the world
When you visit Mirage, go behind the bar, down the stair and speak to the person in the first room you come to. He offers a reward if you can go around the world on a yellow chocobo. Exit the village and find Boko where ever you left him, we'll assume it was in front of Gill's cave. You need to make a circuit around the the largs sea in the middle of the world map. Start by following the shore west and north to Karnak. Contine west and south to Surgate Castle. Now go south, past the hole, to Valley of Dragons, then Kllb, and Val Castle. Continue through the valley to the south until you come out on the shore again. Follow the long isthmus, going past Mirage and Crescent, and when you reach a large forest on the eastern continent, continue north to the hole where Tycoon Castle was. The rest of the journey is the same as when you first left Tycoon Castle in this world.

When you have completed the circuit, return to Mirage and talk to the person in the small room again to get the Mirage Vest.

Behind the falls
Take the chocobo back to Tule, then go north through a valley, follow the shore east to Sealed Castle. Go north from there to Lugor, then east to a valley with a small patch of desert and continue to a small lake. Follow the stream east until it forks, and follow the north fork until you reach the waterfall. Explore the top of the falls until you enter a new area. Check the ground here to find the Magic Lamp.
