Legend of Mana: Event Guide (Prerequisites & Fail-states)

In general:

• Never leave a quest area if you aren’t prompted to!
• Don’t boot an event NPC out of your party until you’ve completed the event!
• Always agree to help when asked!

On prereqs – in most cases, a prerequisite quest must simply have been either completed or failed. Thus failing a quest won’t usually lock you out of later events in the arc.* Completely missing a quest, however, will make subsequent steps impossible to access. (*The exception is “The Treasure Map”, which you must succeed in order to continue the quest line.)

A quick note on rewards: I’m only going to list artifact rewards. Most artifacts have multiple ways of getting them. If you already have both artifacts, you’ll get metal (for crafting) instead.

Primary artifact: You will always receive this artifact if you don’t already have it.

Secondary artifact: You will receive this one as well if you have 3 or fewer artifacts on hand, or you will receive only this one if you already have the Primary AF but not the secondary one.

Find Pearl, defeat the boss. You get slightly different dialogue based on whether Elazul is with you or not.
