If you go directly north from Lindblum, you will come upon an area called Qu's Marsh. When you enter the marsh, you will see a couple of familiar moogles that can give you help if you need it. Go through the entrance in the tall grass behind the moogles, then go directly north until you reach a small pond filled with frogs. At this lake, you will meet a new character by the name of Quina. Quina can be very valuable further into the game because s/he belongs to a species of Blue Mages called the Qu. The Eat ability allows Quina to obtain monsters' abilities, which s/he can later Use in battle. The catch is that, in order to Eat an enemy, it must be at 25% health or less (during Trance, Eat becomes Cook and can be used on enemies with less than 50% health remaining). The resulting abilities are cast in battle with the Use command. | If you go directly north from Lindblum, you will come upon an area called Qu's Marsh.

Quina will be busy catching frogs when you see her, but you can get her attention by catching one of the frogs in the pond and giving it to her. At that point, another Qu named Quan will scold Quina and convince him/her to go with you to travel the world and try different food. (Talk to Quan to get some interesting info about Vivi if you wish as well). Agree to bring Quina along, and head south. | Quina will be busy catching frogs when you see her, but you can get her attention by catching one of the frogs in the pond and giving it to her.

Return to Lindblum and use the castle lift to go back below the mist. As you continue, keep a look out for Serpions, who teach the amazing protective spell Mighty Guard when eaten (you probably can't cast it yet, but ''be sure'' to grab it now for difficult battles yet to come). Also eat a Hedgehog Pie to learn the Pumpkin Drop attack. Nearer to South Gate, eat a Vice, which teaches Vanish, a spell that administers the [[../Status Effects#Vanish|status effect of the same name]], and eat an Ironite to get Angel's Snack, which for now is just a quick way to waste your precious Remedies. | Return to Lindblum and use the castle lift to go back below the mist.
