You can buy the a Key from the Shop Keeper in the first tent when entering the village that will allow you to acquire the Search Sphere. It is listed as a mysterious "Rare Item" for 900,000 Gil. It is impossible that you will have that much Gil upon your first visit to Besaid Island. If you don't have that much Gil, wait to talk to the Shop Keeper before asking about the key. Talking to her before you are ready to purchase will increase the chance by 25% that it will be sold to a traveler. Also avoid talking to a man sitting cross-legged in the southern chamber of the temple. Doing so will increase that chance by 50%. But if you don't want to purchase the key, it is best to wait until Chapter 3 to embark on this quest because that is when you will have another opportunity to get it for free from someone.

An alternative method is, provided you have 900,000 Gil, save the game first, buy the key, get all the ciphers, write them down, then load the save. The ciphers won't change, so you can get the treasures early and save 900,000 Gil, though you need to have that amount at first.


After obtaining the key from the shop keeper, head to the temple and then to the room to the right. Here is the chest containing the "Search Sphere" this item opens. The man in the left chamber of the temple will explain how to use this sphere.
