Legendary Tales: Map of Hope · bonus story · last updated 2026-10-15
Chapter overview and locations
The chapter follows a rebellion member instead of Lucia, tracking down who is copying the maps of magical creatures. The trail runs from a tent camp and a hermit's forest cabin to a birder on the mountain, who is forced with a truth elixir to reveal that the maps come from a tower. After gathering rune stones in the caves and driving a giant slug out with incense, the protagonist opens a portal, finds the tower empty of an oracle and overloads the map-printing machine with slug acid.

Commonly missed
- The hermit's house and the birder's house hold several collectibles that sit above shelves or in cages, so they are easy to walk past.

- Two cave scenes and the crystal cave hold several collectibles, and both are places players tend to rush through on the way to the slug.
