The Dark Elf stole the Crystal from Troia, and took it into his lair in the Lodestone Cavern. Cecil's party decides to return it, so they can trade it to Golbez. The cavern has a powerful magnetic field inside—meaning no metal equipment can be used. The party make it to the cave, but the power of the Dark Elf is monstrous. Edward uses his harp through the Whisperweed to disband the magnetic field and give the party a chance to equip their weapons and fight back.
