An Illusion of Love

Take the Flying Bed south of Amoru to this well. Enter the well.
	At the bottom of the well is a house. Head inside.
The man tells you that at the bottom of the well is Foam Castle which is known for it's Princess in the mirror. Leave the house and examine the well. You'll have to fight a Well Mimic. After defeating it, you'll be transported to the Real World.
	Head southeast to Foan Castle.
At Foan Castle, you'll hear about the Princess that's trapped in the mirror. Search the castle to find two Small Medals, Nut of Magic, 150 Gold, and a Beauty Plant.
	Go upstairs to the King's chambers. The minister will tell you that he's down in the basement with the mirror and will have the soldier move so that you can see him.
Head down to the basement and try to enter the center door. You'll hear the King's voice on the other side. He tries talking to the Princess.
	The King will leave and ask who you are. He won't let you see the Princess though and states if you have other businnes to come see him upstairs.
Talk to the King, and he'll ask you to continue on your travels. Talk to him again, and he'll ask you if you've heard about the Mirror of Ra. Talk to him yet AGAIN to show him the Mirror. He'll have you come with him downstairs.
	The King will ask you to use the Mirror of Ra.
When you use the Mirror of Ra, nothing happens. The reflection shows a demon laughing at you...
	Head back upstairs and talk to the King. He'll mention a story about a prince and princess falling in love, but the magician Miralgo interfered.
There's supposed to be a tower north of the castle, but there's nothing. Leave the castle. The minister says to cast Identify to open the door of the tower.
	Head north of Foan Castle to reach this well. Head inside.
Inside the well, talk to the old man. He'll tell you that there used to be a tower where the well is now. He dreams about the tower whichs is now in an ocean of sand. Check the chest of drawers for a Small Medal before leaving. Now head to the Dream World. By this point in the game, everyone on my team (except for recruited monsters whom I rotated out except for Slalin... ph34r the slime) had mastered 2 jobs and were working on their 3rd. If you've leveled up as much as I have, I -HIGHLY- recommend having a level 3 Sage for Bikill and a level 6 Superstar for the Hustle Dance. These two skills will making the upcoming boss fight much easier.
	If you've checked the Dream World Map before, you'll have a good idea where you're heading- the vast desert in the center of the map. Head there and go inside the tower.
The door is locked. As was said, cast Identify to open the door then head inside.
	Now that you're inside, head up the southwestern staircase.
Head south and begin walking on the outside of the tower. Follow the path and re-enter when you can then head north and up the stairs.
	Head west ignoring the spiraling stairs at first. Walk north then down the stairs.
Open the chests on this floor to get a Small Medal and 1300 Gold. Now head back upstairs and climb the spiral staircase.
	At the top of the staircase, head in the doorway.
Head northeast and climb the set of stairs.
	Now, heal up before entering the house to face Miralgo.
Once inside, grab the Sage's Stone from the pot then talk to Miralgo. He's very surprised that you're here and know his name.
	He explains that he sealed the Princess Erika in the mirror since she refused to be his bride. He doesn't like uninvited guests either. Pity.
Miralgo: Miralgo follows the obsessive compulsive "Must have Barrier up at all times" syndrome. Whenever he puts it up, cast Blaze or some other weak spell to knock it down. Generally he'll put it back up again the next round. Bikill really comes in handy here if you have it- as does PowerUp finally. Group that with Spirit Punch and Bikill to do tremendous damage. Miralgo will summon Lamp Mages to help him out. If the Lamp Mages are doing alot of damage to you, then dispatch them. Otherwise, ignore them and focus on Miralgo. Magic is very risky to use on Miralgo- I don't recommend it unless you're confident you can hit him without it reflecting back at you.
	Of course, Miralgo is shocked that he's lost. With his death, he releases Erika. Now return to Foan Castle in the Real World.
Once at Foan, talk to the King. He'll realize what needs to be done to free Princess Erika.
	The King will take you back down to the mirror.
He'll chant something in Japanese... I've heard the loose translation is "Speak the name of the one you love."
	The Princess will thank Foan and you for freeing her. Foan asks to if she will marry him, and the two walk off together. Aw... now head back upstairs and talk to the couple.
Talk to King Foan, and he'll give you the Watergate Key. Now you can continue on with your exploration.
	Erika will tell you that Miralgo killed the man she loved long ago. Foan is the reincarnation of this man. She apologizes that she can't give you anything.
