Found a secret encounter while taking an opportunity to create a Fire Emblem style conveyor belt of grind at the bottom of a pain in the ass optional dungeon map and almost immediately found what I believe to be the solution to her predicament in a legendary sword that undoes seals. But now I have to do the whole dungeon again. fffffuck.
Also found a potentially useful glitch in the extremely unlikely event that anyone speedruns this game. I was given the legendary blade when my inventory was full and it seemed to cause some kind of issue with movement values when I tried equipping it giving me infinite movement space directly north and south but nowhere else. I toyed around with it a little and interestingly you can also bridge between allies to give yourself a few more north/south rows to work with. Glitch fixes itself when you discard something from your inventory, equip it properly and end the turn. If I had more time I'd experiment and see if it was just a quirk of the translation patch or something that also works in a vanilla rom.
