So, this is Lakeshore Village Astoria. Your business here is brief. You must talk to two NPCs before the game will advance. They are the woman to the east, who tells you that Holy City Wendel is across the lake, and the man to the south, who talks about a mysterious light. | So, this is Lakeshore Village Astoria.

After you've talked to them, go to the weapon shop and buy your new weapon. To equip your weapon, press Y to open the menu. Then go to the equipment section (it's in the top right corner). Press A to make the cursor appear and then press A again so you can choose your weapon. Point the cursor at your new weapon and then press A again. Now you know how to change your character's equipment! Sell your old weapon to the merchant and then go to the inn and sleep. Alternatively, go into the forest and level up. It's your decision. | After you've talked to them, go to the weapon shop and buy your new weapon. To equip your weapon, press {{snes|Y}} to open the menu.

After you've slept a bit, you will be woken by a bright light. Follow it into the forest. It's not too hard to follow; after you pass the path to the Cave of Waterfalls, take the turn to the left and keep going until you reach the Golden Goddess Statue. This statue, and the dozens just like it scattered throughout the world, are images of the Mana Goddess. The gold ones have the power to restore your HP and MP, and both the gold and silver ones will let you save your game. Do so now. | After you've slept a bit, you will be woken by a bright light.

Look down at the heads-up display centered at the bottom of the screen. Let's get all the elements of it identified. The big set of numbers at the top is HP. Left side is HP remaining; right side is HP total. Below that is your character's portrait. This will change if you receive any status effects. Kevin's portrait also changes to a werewolf when he is transformed. LV, on the left side, is short for level; MP remaining is displayed on the right. The bars surrounding your character's portrait are for Techs. Each time you attack, a set of those bars are lit blue. When they light green, yellow, or red, you can use a Tech. | Look down at the heads-up display centered at the bottom of the screen. Let's get all the elements of it identified.

Now, you need to master Techs. Go into the forest, and find some Rabites. These little critters have 20 HP, which is perfect for our needs. Using your A-button attack, hit some enemies four times (note that you must wait a few moments after attacking before you can attack again; also note that your character's weapon will sparkle when he/she is ready to attack again). Your Tech bar should be glowing green. Now, press B. Your character will glow white and flash around, making funny noises and apparently suffering a seizure. This is normal. Walk up next to an enemy and press B to unleash your Tech on the unsuspecting Rabite. You should do roughly twice the damage you normally do to an opponent. | Now, you need to master Techs.

Before we move on, there are two more things to know. Whenever HP changes, the amount of HP gained or lost always appears on-screen in big numerals. There are four colors of HP, and they all mean different things. | Before we move on, there are two more things to know.
