Exiled from Potos, you have no choice but to head south.  You first appear near the upper right corner of the map shown to the right.  Only a short distance from where you arrive, you'll find a path to the right.  This path leads to a Cannon Travel Center.  If you head over there, the man will explain that Jema has traveled to the Water Palace, and he's paid for your trip.  If you choose to accept it, you will slide in be blasted over to the area just south of the palace.  However, it's a good idea to walk there.  In doing so, you will encounter new monsters and learn how to fight them, and defeating them will give you much needed experience points and gold.

From the path out of Potos, head south and cross a bridge.  Then head to the left.  In addition to Rabites, you are likely to encounter pink flowers known as Lullabuds.  They're not much more difficult than Rabites, but they have more hit points and can heal damage.  You should read a sign post which indicates that the Water Palace is above, while the Kingdom of Pandora is below.  Don't head down to Pandora just yet.  If you try to visit Pandora now, a guard will prevent you from entering.  Continue west on your way to the Water Palace.

As you pass by a large tree, you'll encounter another new enemy, the Mushboom.  Mushbooms have even more experience points, as well as an explosive attack.  This attack rarely connects for any damage, but keep an eye out for it.  Defeat it and continue west until you cross another bridge and can travel north.  On your way up, you'll see a path that heads to the west.  Explore this path, and you'll discover a house in a little clearing.

When you arrive in this new section, four soldiers will be standing before a leader.  If you speak with the leader, named Dyluck, he will explain that they are from Pandora, on a mission to find the witch known as Elinee.  You can speak with the soldiers as well.  One will indicate that you need a whip to use the shortcut through the woods.  Upon speaking to your third soldier, they will embark for the woods.  They head off to the left and disappear, presumably through the teleportation point surrounded by stones.

Jema will announce that he is headed to Pandora to see if the Empire is causing any problems.  He instructs you to head to Gaia's Navel in order to find a blacksmith among the dwarves that live there.  After Jema leaves, continue talking with Luka.  She will explain more about the sword to you, and encourage you to be the hero that the world needs.  Then she will instruct you to examine the seed.  Doing so will cause the sword to seal the seed.  Luka will explain that there are eight seeds in eight palaces.  Then she will then restore you, let you save your game, and give you a second weapon; a spear.  She will also tell you to head to Gaia's Navel and search for the Underground palace.

Once you finish talking with Luka, head down to exit the Water Palace and return to the outside.  Keep running south until you are back at the clearing where you ran into Dyluck's troops.  Return to the path to the south and keep running down past the entrance to Neko's home.  Before you reach the bridge to cross the water, a pair of Goblins will ambush you and abduct you.


You have no control in the next scene, as it plays out like a cut scene.  You will be captured in a pot that the goblins are using to turn you into their next meal.  They will be busy celebrating the occasion, and the two that are guarding you will decide to join in on the dancing. At that moment, a girl will appear.  She will see that you're in trouble and rescue you by pulling you out of the pot.  Then the two of you will escape.
Luka will mention that you should head to Gaia's Navel for the Underground Palace. To reach this place, head south through the Kingdom of Pandora.


Once you are back on the path below the Water Palace, the girl will explain that she was looking for someone and thought you might be him. Then she takes off, leaving you alone once more.  From here, head east over the bridge, attack the Mushboom, and then start heading south at the sign.
After obtaining the spear and mana power from the water temple, you can head south to Pandora. On your way, you will be captured by Goblins in a cutscene and rescued by a girl that you will encounter later.  


From here, you must follow the path until you reach your destination: the village of Pandora.  There are two recommendations for your journey through the woods.  First, fight everything.  You should take every opportunity to earn experience points and rise in levels as much as possible.  If you don't, you will find later sections of the game too difficult to survive.  Second, you may wish to switch your weapon to the spear at some point and begin reaching level 1 proficiency with that weapon as well.
At this point, you can approach either Gaia's Navel or Pandora's Castle.  


Around the time that you reach a clearing with a Mushboom while you're running to the west, you may notice a small yellow creature below a ledge.  This creature can serve as a one-way shortcut to the ledge above (which is away from your destination).  From this clearing, simply head west, then south, and then back to the east until the path exits to Pandora below.

You've made it to Pandora.  The guard will let you in, but he recommends not talking to the villagers.  It seems they won't have much to say even if you try.  The item shop doesn't have a lot of unique items for sale, and the merchant in the armor shop won't speak.  Some people are very concerned about the state of the villagers.  One mentions that some people have been gathering at the ruins south of the castle.

At this point, you can exit through the south to see the ruins, but that won't do much goodYou can exit through the west path that leads to Gaia's Navel.  However, there is an opportunity that you can take advantage of.
The village of Pandora is under a curse from a witch to the north-west.
 
In Pandora, you can recruit the girl in the castle to the north-east.  Head onto the second floor.  She will insist that you go to the Haunted Forest, but since the path is blocked by a boulder, she lets you proceed to Gaia's Navel.
 
While you will need to remove the curse, you cannot do so at this timeIn addition, only the potion shop is currently open with a limited supply of items.

Kippo village is from a branch on approach to Gaia's Navel.  It serves as a save point.
{{-}}
 
== Gaia's Navel ==
 
To reach Gaia's Navel, head west from the village of Pandora, and follow the path to the north.  When you reach a fork, the left path leads to Kippo village, and the north path leades to the navelIf you need to return to either the Water Palace, there is a cannon located to the north. and east.
 
The eastern entrance to the Navel has a Neko in the small cave; he can save the game and sell some items.  The left cave brings you to Dwarf Village after a long tunnel network.


It's not required, but if you visit Pandora's palace through the upper right corner of the village, you can encounter the girl who saved you from the goblins and recruit her.  If you choose not to do this now, you will have another opportunity, but only after the girl winds up capture by two rather powerful WerewolvesThe fight against the Werewolves is rather difficult if you don't do a lot of grinding to level your character upRecruiting the girl now spares you having to do that fight, and it gives you an ally to help you in your effort to reach Gaia's Navel.
After you drain the water and cross the opened path, head to the left and open the chest to get the Magic RopeThis allows you to quickly exit dungeons.   


=== Recruiting the girl ===
When you reach the Dwarf Village, there are two tasks to perform:
[[File:Secret of Mana girl joins.png|right]]
* Visit the smith in the north-west corner of the villageSpend 100 to repair the rusty sword.
Enter Pandora castleHead through the large doors, and up through the main corridor to the hallway above. Head left, and follow the path until you reach a set of stairs.  Climb the stairs, run right through the upstairs hallway, and down the next set of stairsOn the floor below, immediately climb the stairs to your right.  On this next floor, you'll encounter the girl who is fuming about her potential arranged marriage.  Determined to find Dyluck, she insists that you join her so you can help find him.
* In the north of the village, visit the exhibition, and pay the cover fee and donationHead to the backstage of the exhibition to recover the hold.


You can explore the rest of the castle.  In here, more people will talk about their concern for the state of the villagers, and how a witch seems to be the one who put a curse on the people.  If you head to the main audience chamber to see the king, you'll find Jema there.  He tells you that he will investigate the ruins, and instructs you once again to visit Gaia's Navel.  If you speak to the king, he will explain that he sent Dyluck to fight the witch, but no one has returned.  The girl will be furious.
Once you do this, Tropicallo will break out of the Underground palace and attack.  


Whenever you're ready, head out and start on the path to Gaia's Navel by taking the west exit out of Pandora.  On your way out, it's a good idea to purchase a Hair Ribbon, as it's a good defense boost for the girl.
After defeating Tropicallo, you will recruit the sprite, obtain a spear orb, and collect the Chobin's Bow. Head to Watts to obtain the completed Axe and open a short-cut to and from Gaia's Navel.
