Lost Odyssey Walkthrough

After the cut scene, the first thing you need to do is go into the menu screen. Readjust your party as needed, then save. (In case you have not saved from the menu before, just go to the "System" command at the bottom. Usually the "Save" command within here is grayed out unless you're standing at a save point. Luckily, the whole world is a save point when you're in the Nautilus.)

With the Nautilus upgraded, it's time to head toward Numara. For some reason, the flashing dot on the map doesn't indicate your next destination: it leads to an area for a side quest. Click the right stick, and highlight the "Port of Numara" even though it's grayed out. You'll see a red dot on the map in the southwestern continent, and it's among the archipelago of the southeast. That is where you'll want to sail.

As you sail over there and approach the landing area, a cut scene will intervene. The Arthrosaurus that was used to harass Numara a thousand years ago breaks free from its stone state, and proceeds to start randomly pillaging the villages nearby. Sarah reasons that the Arthrosaurus was turned to stone because of Ming losing her memories; with her memories back, the beast is free to savage the land.

Drive the Nautilus directly at the beast. It climbs onto the ship, and Kaim for whatever reason decides to just engage it immediately.

As soon as the battle ends, restore Sarah's MP, then engage the other one at the south again. If you're fast, you'll take out both southern ones before the northern ones wake up. Even if you don't, you should be in a position where the northern ones are still extremely far away from the city as the southern ones die.

If several are awake, you need to do the same Sleep/Run technique as when you kicked off the mini-game. The idea is to keep all but the one you're currently fighting asleep so none are ever actually moving.

The party is rather nonchalant about taking down five Arthrosauruses in the course of ten minutes, but I guess you get to be a little cocky when you have four immortals in your company. Either way, once the fight is done, you have access to Numara for the first time in a long time!

Once in Port Numara, you'll find that Canal Street is essentially closed. The bridge is out, and they don't want anyone falling off it. For now, head over to Old Town, and stay the night at Mack and Cooke's house (Lirum's old house, you will recall). In the morning, Ming decides to go back to the palace.

...But you shouldn't go, because you would obliterated in short order. We need to make a quick stop, first.
