The third chapter of Castti's story takes place in the Abandoned Village, an almost-empty settlement in the north of the Brightlands. If you're traveling here from either of Castti's second chapter locations, your quickest route is to jump to Canalbrine, then hop ships until you reach New Delsta Harbor: Anchorage. The Abandoned Village is on the east side of the New Delsta Flats, which is a short trip from the harbor.

When you first arrive in the Abandoned Village you can begin Castti's story right away, assuming she's in the party. If you'd rather look around first, you can activate the chapter later by speaking to the village's Tavern Keeper. He has a little table along the main road through the village, east of the entrance.

Castti arrives in the Abandoned Village - which was once known as Healeaks - seeking answers to her memories. Malaya, one of Castti's former comrades, is somewhere in the village, and Castti needs to find her. It just so happens that Malaya is a short distance to the right of the save point. Approach her to have a chat, then Inquire Malaya during the day to learn the full story of Eir's Apothecaries.

After some chatting you'll be shot back into the past, and can explore Healeaks as it once was. Castti can wander around and Inquire whomever she likes, though the only people she needs to Inquire are her fellow Apothecaries. Randy and Elma are near the horse stable in the middle of Healeaks, Trousseau is in front of a house on the east side of the village, and Andy is in a house to Trousseau's left. Cut scenes will continue after you've found them all...

... and, back in the present, Malaya will tell you to meet her in the town square, to the east. Inquire Malaya again to learn more. Back in the past, lead the Apothecaries up the Path to Mount Liphia, in the east. The game will jump back to the present, and you'll need to make it through Mount Liphia yourself.

You start outside this place, and needn't fight any of these enemies. Still, it's good to know they're there, right? The path is otherwise just a path, with no treasures to find.

Right near the entrance to Mount Liphia you'll find a small set of stairs with a chest at the top. The chest contains Diffusing Serum. Continue east into the mountain and you'll come to a bridge. On the other side of the bridge the path heads north, though if you look just south of the bridge you'll see a ladder. At the bottom is a dock. Sail west to find an Olive of Life (L) in a chest, then sail north. You'll find a ladder up to a chest containing an Energizing Pomegranate...

... and past that, further east, you'll be back on the main path. Handy. You should nevertheless backtrack south a bit, as you'll find a northbound path to a chest if you go down the stairs leading towards the bridge. The chest contains an Elemental Ward. There's also a beam of light on the east side of the cave that looks like an exit, though if you approach it you'll pop outside briefly and find another chest. This one contains 12,500 leaves.


Down the final northern passage you'll see your destination. Check the left side of the tunnel for a chest containing an Inspiriting Plum Basket, then head outside. The final puzzle pieces fall into place, and once the story is fully told Castti will have her final destination laid out: Timberain, a city in the Leaflands. Chapter complete.
