|---|---|

| 3 | After the fight, you'll be taken to a safe area where you can purchase items from the merchant and save the game. When you're ready, head into the mine. The next area is straightforward and you don't need to worry about the soldiers since you should be at a high enough level to defeat them without initiating Squad Combat. |

| 7 |  Deeper in the cave, you'll come across a safe area and the merchant. Heal up and save since you'll be facing the boss Homo Fulquilo next. Make sure to keep your Mage alive since this boss is weak to Ice! |
| 7 |  After the fight, heal up since the next area has an optional boss fight against the sleeping dragon. You can sneak past, but it's recommended to fight it so that you can get the powerful Dragon's Indignation greatsword! |
| 7 | Once you've snuck past or defeated the dragon, a cutscene will play that shows the cave collapsing. Run across the bridge and escape the mine so you can set up camp and sleep. Before sleeping, unequip every item from Grius as he will leave the party when you get back to the capital. |

| 8 | Before entering the mausoleum, make sure you have the Seeker equipped since the next boss is very weak to the Rider of the Blade Synthesis Skill, which is unlocked during the next fight. You can also bring a Healer with you, but it does less Light damage than the Seeker. |
