Dungeons:
----------
Complete the indicated task to unlock the corresponding dungeon.

Amber Garden: Unlock Charme. View the event in the town square of Tielle chasing
after her sister. Charme will enter into your store and mention a new dungeon.

Crystal Nightmare: Complete Lapis Ruins.

Jade Way: Complete Hall of Trials.

Lapis Ruins: Pay off the debt and unlock every character except Arma. Arma will

the town square with Griff. Have your store towards a dark atmosphere to get
Griff to come in during one of the two last slices of time. The next day Louie
will enter your store and mention the new dungeon.


Haggling with Customers:
------------------------
If a customer offers you an item, you can offer a low price, if the customer says
it's too cheap but he doesn't leave the store, you can put the same price again
and get the item at an outrageous price!


Haggling with Prime:
--------------------
Prime, Alouette's fairy, is particularly sneaky. You might offer her a perfectly
decent price for an item and she'll reject it, claiming that you are charging her
too much. However, most of the time... she's lying! Prime will tell you that you
are charging too much when, really, she just wants to pay less. You can offer her
the same price repeatedly and at the end she'll accept it.

It doesn't always work but I try to sell her items at 114% of the original price
and she rejects it, only to accept it on the second try.


Following Shadows - Beating Pumpkins and Hornets:
-------------------------------------------------
While in the dungeons you might notice that there are odd spots on the ground.
For example, in the Amber Gardens these spots may look like a patch of grass.

If you've paid enough attention you might realize that shadows don't appear on
these patches! When you walk over them, the shadows beneath your feet disappear
until you walk off. If a monster walks over them, the same thing will happen to
them.

This isn't much of a problem, but when you start battling those floating pumpkins
they can be hard to keep track of since you won't know where they are - they're
floating! If you find yourself in a swarm of pumpkins or hornets try to lure
them away from the patch so you can see their shadows and figure out how close
they are to you.


Cutting Corners - Watch your power crystals:
--------------------------------------------
In the middle of a dungeon - especially one of the later dungeons which can
sometimes have you fighting several monsters at once - you'll probably be rushing
around a lot. However, be careful! If you kill a monster and then quickly run
around a corner there's a chance that some of the power crystals will get stuck
on the corner and your adventurer won't absorb them.

Granted, only one or two will get stuck but they won't get added onto your power
meter and if you want to level up you'll need all the crystals you can get! If
you notice that some of them are stuck rolling around the edge of the wall, you
should run back and try to absorb them but if you wait too long they'll disappear!
