purpose of Mysterious Ruins?
so the story-enemies are now around level 25 or higher, and i still haven't seen a quest or any reason to visit the Mysterious Mansion. i've visited twice, once in the beginning of the game where i jumped a bunch of levels, then later i revisited to explore and found 2 chests (the all-recover HP/MP item and i believe a Unicorn Armband). does it ever have a purpose??

it's a spooky-looking building located in the southeast of Citro Plains after the forest appears early game. you have to walk south along the west side of the map then east-north to get to it.

I think he's talking about Mourgent. It's a quest the blacksmith gives you after a while, but you have to see the scene in the Blades' room first, after liberating Astrasia.

Re: purpose of Mysterious Mansion?
Yeah, the one in Citro Plains is for Mourgent's recruitment.
But, I'm surprised it's called Mysterious Mansion. In the EU release, it's Mysterious Ruins. There is one in each of the following areas: Citro Plains, Marsinah Plains, the desert and Rarohenga.
They are tied with specific character recruitment, but more importantly there are where you complete the Renegade-hunting wifi quests. In other words, the renegades that they are looking for spawn in these ruins.

Re: purpose of Mysterious Ruins?
Mysterious Ruins--that's what I had in mind! But I thought there was a 'Mysterious Mansion' somewhere so I asked first.
patapi sure has vast knowledge about Tierkreis! At first i thought the Marsinah one is the only one of them where recruitment takes place.
The Mysterious ruins sure are weird so... a wild guess about it's mystery? Anybody?

Re: purpose of Mysterious Ruins?
Heh, all I've done is completing a few of these wifi quests for people, because no one else ever did mine. Sigh.
That said, I find it an interesting coincidence that the artbook named the Fortress Ruins as "Rätselhaft", which basically can be translated as "mysterious" as well; making the HQ sorta the fifth "Mysterious Ruins".

Really interesting. These Mysterious ruins could actually be the HQ of the other worlds' Starbearers. And they're located at areas from other worlds.patapi wrote:That said, I find it an interesting coincidence that the artbook named the Fortress Ruins as "Rätselhaft", which basically can be translated as "mysterious" as well; making the HQ sorta the fifth "Mysterious Ruins".

That'd mean they are the remnant of the HQs of Stars of Destiny who lost against the One King in the respective worlds. A bit heartbreaking, say.

Re: purpose of Mysterious Ruins?
There are far more than 2 Ruins. Your HQ was a ruin, there's one in Citro Plains, one in Marsinah Plains, Desert, and Coastal Cave was likely a ruin.
