Sunken Desert

Water magic is key in the Sunken Desert, especially against the Boss. This is a very tiny Area with a lot of encounters, and you can't return once you're done, so collect the various Treasures immediately. (You can collect Treasure after Retinite is dead, just don't leave until you're done.)

You need to use Water spells to lower Retinite's defense. You can take out its Core, but it will become more aggressive when you do.

Once you win, bring Robo to Fiona's Villa, then head to the Present and visit Fiona's Shrine.
