The 7th Saga/The Final Quest

Pharano
After Gorsia sent you back to the Dark Ages ("Darkness" in the English translations), you lie unconscious for one week. When you wake up, there are good news:
 * "It's a terrible time because the two worlds, Light and Dark, are fighting. There is nothing we can do about it."
 * "It's been a while since the two worlds have collided."
 * "I heard that SARO defeated GORSIA. I'm relieved. We are safe."
 * "I heard that SARO defeated GORSIA. So, peace and prosperity will return to us."
 * "The monsters will have to return to the dark world now that GORSIA is gone."

There's some bad news, too: the Magic Map and the Windballs don't work anymore. Apparently, losing the seven Runes was not enough!

Since there is apparently no quest to solve around here, you can go shopping and collect two free items. When you're ready, leave towards the south and look for some trouble in Pasanda.

If you want to explore around Pharano, the monsters here are weaker than in Barluca and Gorfun. You'll find out soon that the area is surrounded by sea and mountains on three sides, leaving south as the only travel option.

Pasanda
Travel south until you get to the seaside, then continue south-west along the coast. Be prepared: soon, you'll encounter two stronger monsters. Eventually, you'll get to Pasanda.

Some news arrived in Pasanda from the west, and obviously they didn't reach Pharano in the east yet:
 * "I felt a terrible pain three days ago, and I sensed SARO trying to tell me something. I'm afraid something has happened to him."
 * "Returning from Ligena, Belma has a strange story to tell. Go to the tavern and catch the story."
 * "It's really true. People in Ligena were telling me that GORSIA defeated SARO. If you don't believe me, go to Ligena, close to the west river, and find out for yourself."
 * "Can you believe SARO was defeated? I don't want to!"
 * "Don't be ridicolous! SARO can't be defeated."

Well then, what's going on? Let's summarize the battle between Saro the (God in the Japanese original) and Gorsia (Satan in the Japanese original):
 * 1) First match: Saro defeated Gorsia, sealed his powers in the seven Runes and sent him to the future.
 * 2) Second match: Gorsia came back from the future and beat Saro. This happened while you were unconscious.
 * 3) Third match: The people of Bugask told you that Saro eventually won against Gorsia, so there must be a third match. Guess who is going to help Saro achieve the final victory? Obviously, that's you!

Also note that the Runes have been created already, and they will be destroyed only in the far future. That means that they are around here somewhere. Good, good news!

Now go shopping and collect a free harp.
