The Autumn Holy Shrine, Island of the Drowned, Palace of Serendipity


17 Summer:
Kurana came to me in a dream last night begging me to find the Autumn Shrine to revive both him and Kai.  It was precisely what I intended to do.
The Autumn Holy Shrine is in the Palace of Serendipity on the Island of the Drowned.
Too confusing.  I had activated another Bonding quest with Fubuki late last night so the Gold Pin kept landing on Winter Village instead.  
Reaching the Save Point for the Island of the Drowned can be  tricky.  Moreover somehow little Suzu had insinuated herself into my Party last night for that concert of hers and I am stuck with her now!

Enter the Palace of Serendipity.

This will not be a good walkthrough now.  I will have to go through this all again.

It is a place like the Mechanical Maze with multiple switches to unlock doors.  All sorts of moving platforms and gears.  I got to the Holy Shrine by some miracle before the end of the day, fought and defeated Clarice.  Surprisingly Suzu was quite helpful keeping my Party members alive.  I will have to study this further.

A Wayside Shrine to the left has:
Smash Blade.
MechanIcal Bow
Spring Reborn

Two rooms of moving platforms.  If you fall, a wall of flame.
Next room has colossal oni and others.
Go left for artillery and other enemies.

I have to move between boxes and fall into a place where i have to clear green blight then activate yelliw fans.  This turns switches green to open a door.  I then must leap up on boxes of increasing height.  Get to a place where there is a Frog that gives an Inari Statue.
I activate a switch that opened a door, then another 
Now a Wayside Shrine that gives
Braveheart
Arcane Shadow Talismans 
Autumn Hairpin

The final door is locked.  Turn from it and look to the far left corner.  You will aee a switch on the highest platform.  I used the parasol to leap to it.
It was after 10 p.m. when we went to the Holy Shrine.  Somehow Fubuki made an appearance at the end.  Asked us then to join him and the other gods for a Meeting at the Winter Shrine.

Starting a New Game, Post 1, Restoring the Spring Village

Comprehensive Guide by Freyashawk: This is the first in a series of posts that will constitute a detailed Walkthrough. Restoring the Spring Village: I started a new game to minimise errors and maximise options as well as being able to write a guide.  What I have decided is that 'make haste to repent at leisure' does apply to some extent.  Your abilities do increase with use.  I now believe even physical acts such as jumping may increase with better stats.  I will try to test this when I return to more difficult dungeons. I 'beat the game' fairly early but had much frustration with Blight and puzzles.  I doubt there is any 'fix' where the puzzles are concerned aside from playing through more than once but I will be interested to discover if more skill nodes help me reach high places more easily, for example.  Some Main Quests must be completed to unlock relationships with characters but others could be delayed to gain more skills. 1.  Follow the Prompts...

Introduction to Guardians of Azuma Guide

Introduction: Please see my Walkthrough posts for a linear guide to this game. This is a complex and rewarding game.  I fell in love with the series when the first Rune Factory was released and my guides were being published by IGN.    How could one not love the idea of Harvest Moon that introduced a forge and combat?  Decades later, and a number of different handheld systems later, we have the greatest Rune Factory game since the incredible Rune Factory Frontier for the Wii.  In fact, it reminds me most of that game with similar beauty and rather profound emotional investment. Guardians of Azuma, although multi-layered and very complex, contains a wealth of tutorials and is much more forgiving in terms of goals. My first words of advice are to pay attention to every detail in the Quests because they are tutorials, granting you experience with different aspects of the game.  From the first day, you are introduced to important foundations of the game.  ...

New Update gives new Development Zones and new Recipes

Image
At Level 12, a new Reward from Kai: After building it, the Carpenter declares: Nice and solid, if I do say so myself! That will please his fans!  Even if one marries some one else, this lifesized figure can be the guardian of a shrine on your Development area.  I actually got to Level 12 with him today in my new game... but I am at maximum level with every one in my other gane so will be able to log new rewards from the update shortly. The new Spring and Summer Development zones are wonderful.  I need to push on in the new game to be able to complete my Walkthrough but I am eager to explore all the new options.
