Brain Lord/Hints

Quick level-up of Jade Fairies
Fairies level up by collecting the little blue energy spheres that enemies rarely drop. Each crystal is worth 50 Experience points and most fairies take 4 spheres per level.

If you're desperate to level them up, go in the southeastern door just inside the first floor of the ../Abell ruins/ and continue through to the dark room with the light switch, the two floating panels, and the sea of electric tiles. One of the Blue Bats there (the one closest to the northern wall) will always drop an energy sphere so you can level your fairies up as much as you want.

One Ouk on Toronto Road also drops an energy sphere every time it is defeated.

Alternatively, there's a Lightning Goblin (the "brain" enemy that makes you numb) in front of the door you use the 1st Gate Key in the ../Ice Castle/, that always drop an energy sphere, but remember the Ice Castle becomes inaccessible when you find Ramus.

Another enemy that always drop an energy sphere is a Platinum Woodnor (kind of a archer wolf) that is located in the southeast corridor of the 1st floor of the ../Platinum Shrine/, the one which leads you to the first dark room you visit.

Hints for completionists
Since the game only offers 48 item slots to the player, and since there are many items that are rare, scarce, or only temporarily obtainable in shops (especially the ones from the Errant Merchant), those hints below will allow you to maximize the empty slots (for you to use with health items) and leave the unnecessary (but rare) items inside their treasure chests. Therefore, if you want to get one of these items, you can backtrack and get.

However, remember that you must collect every single treasure in the Ice Castle, because this place is the only one you cannot revisit after defeating the boss.

The Reviving Mirror can be replaced by the Deceased Jade. Level him up in the Abell Ruins. You'll have more "lives" with him than with the mirrors.
