+ Return to town and get a visit from Jon.
+ Go up to the castle to get permission to go to Hell's Valley. This requires having rescued 4 specific persons.
+ Enter the forest briefly to free Maid Loinette (had I remembered this spot, I could have done this earlier xD).
+ On our way to Hell's Valley...hey! A chest! We'll have to come back for it another time. Also, we free Knitter Lunchetta.
+ Enter Hell's valley and do battle with our next boss, the Skullpion. I cut out a fairly large chunk, as I (rather embarrassingly) missed the core on the third opportunity. I deal the killing blow on the fourth, though.
+ Get more plot. Mission Vambee? That can't be good.
+ Return to town...oh, hello there, Creepy Background Music. You sure don't give away that something is going on in town. But we'll save that for the next video - for now...
+ Head up to the castle one last time to visit some of the persons we saved. As we speak to the Musicians we saved, listen to the background music...it changes! Neat! Also, visiting the Maid and KnightB earns us a couple new combat techniques.
