From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki
It is recommended that you go up to Level 6 here, choosing Magician each time, after you have a class change then it is recommended that you choose warrior or monk to increase your Attack and Defense. When you reach Level 6, go to cascade cottage to the North-West, if your character doesn't say anything near the doorway then go back to Topple and talk to everyone, then come back. There will be a letter on the table, you will pick it up then you will be confronted by the girl, her spirit (Wisp) will save you, she will then teach you about magic and Spirits then about jumping, go east two Maps then jump up the cliff to the north above the stairs then go north twice to get to Batmo Cave
