Mysidia is most likely the last town you will visit during the game, which means it's the place to really splurge and spend some of that money you've no doubt been building up. There actually is one more shop later, in the final dungeon, but you'll make plenty of gil before you reach it.

Your main task here is to visit the small cave in the southern part of town and put the White Mask on the statue within. You can also visit an unmarked building in the southwest and "speak" to the bookcase to learn interesting facts about various keywords. Your next stop is the Mysidian Cave, which is a bit of a walk, but you can easily afford to carry Cottages (and likely have found a few recently), so you shouldn't need to come back here to rest.
