Lleviathan still put up a fight, but in the end those extra two levels earned through grinding made a real difference. Though, cutting right to the quick, this battle must've gone at least as many rounds as the previous one and Lleviathan used only a fraction of the group attacks that he had before. I only saw the tidal wave attack once as opposed to at least five times in the last battle, and the tail swipe thrice where it'd been busted out a few times more before. Ticks boss enemy AI aside, with stronger party members and more potent curatives I won the day.
What follows the battle is a rather touching reunion of father and daughter. Maybe it's the Welsh eye dialect used for the citizens of Porth Llaffan, but it had me misting up a bit, it did.
The game doesn't linger on this heartwarming scene for long, though. It fades to black, moves time forward a day, and has the party waking up in the mayor's house. There we're told that the ferry's back up and running. No doubt the NPCs comment on this return to service, as well, but this next gentle nudge forward is pretty clear.
Since things are moving along so smoothly so far, I expect that at either fig number three or fig number four we'll encounter a rival fygg collector to whom we'll lose our whole collection around fygg number six. Either that, or the fyggs, once gathered, will rouse some sort of vile demon that your party needs to face down. This is a JRPG, after all, and there's just got to be some sort of twist.
