-- III. Cloudy Mirror / Celestial Mirror --
In your travels around the world of Spira, you may come across chests you
can't open, and mysterious mandalas on walls. These chests and mandalas house
your characters' ultimate weapons, and require a charged magic mirror to
access.
To start, head to the Calm Lands and obtain a chocobo from the stationary (ie,
not moving) chocobo rider there. Ride to the south plateau near where you came
in from Macalania Woods, and on the east side you should see a broken bridge
and a chocobo feather on the ground. Press [x] near the chocobo feather, and
your chocobo will fly to the plateau below it. Continue east to the Remiem
Temple. Examine the sphere on the left side of the temple, then talk to the
chocobo on the right to race the second chocobo on the left. If you make it
to the center of the circular track quickly enough, you'll be rewarded with
the Cloudy Mirror.
Side note: if you keep racing here, you can acquire other fine and rare
items, depending on how many treasure chests you were able to reach while
still winning the race. These prizes are:
0 Treasure Chests: Potion
1 Treasure Chest : Elixir
2 Treasure Chests: Mega Elixir
3 Treasure Chests: Wings to Discovery x30 (!!)
4 Treasure Chests: Pendulum x30
5 Treasure Chests: Three Stars x60
You can find a translated map of the Remiem chocobo racing track at my site
at http://home.san.rr.com/circe/ultimania_remiem.html. Do NOT touch any poles
while racing, or you'll end up with a lousy potion instead of the abovelisted
rare prizes. (Touching poles will not prevent you from getting the Cloudy
Mirror, however.) I'm pretty sure the prizes are one-time-only deals, so
don't kill yourself trying to obtain Wings to Discovery over and over.
To de-fog and charge your newly acquired magic mirror, talk to the mother and
son at the entrance of Macalania Woods. Find the father at the campsite,
speak to him, and he'll run off to be reunited with his family. Go back to the
entrance and speak with the mother and father again, and keep talking to them
until they mention their missing son. This may take 3 or 4 tries. After they
mention their son, head up the sparkly path to their left into the trees. Bear
north at the first fork, where the son should allow you passage if you talked
to his parents enough times. Show the Cloudy Mirror to the large ambrosia
salad-looking plant, who'll turn it into the Celestial Mirror. If there's a
woman blocking the path instead of the son, either a) you're not far enough
in the game yet, or b) you didn't talk to the parents enough times. With the
Celestial Mirror, you can now open chests and detonate the mandalas
protecting your ultimate weapons.
That says a camp site? anyone know where that shit is? and where he is pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee. it would really help
