Enter, talk, and collect as a set

  1. After battles, explore inside locations to the back and look for people to speak to. Check the entrance for your return, too.
  2. Record spring uses by location. Do not assume each effect can be used three times.
  3. You can reenter caves if you need more training. Do not keep fighting at the cost of more allied losses.
  4. At chapter's end, collect chests before talking. Fallen allies do not revive simply by returning to the world map.
