The Land of Stopped Time
Posted by Mike Blitz on February 24th, 2007
I felt like Columbus as we bravely sailed off the edge of the floating world. We traveled through some mist and smoke, finally arriving on a great plane of mist with three islands. One of the islands is our own floating world. The other two are as yet unexplored.
We circumnavigated the largest island, which appears to have a large temple and a cave. From there we cut north to the smaller island. Here we enter a small village. The only thing we found inside was an old man looking over a sick daughter. We gave her a potion, and she snapped out of bed.
She then told us a mysterious story of how time has been stopped in the land. She implores us to help fix this, which we must do by going after the water crystal. Not sure the connection here, but we’ll take her word for it. For now this is fairly straightforward. We’ve simply got to go get a fragment of the water crystal (I think) at the water temple, then go to the water crystal cave and use the fragment to unite the water crystal. Simple!
Right. I’m betting this is going to get a lot more complicated before we’re done, as nothing is simple in Final Fantasy III world.
