Sphere Grid:
After defeating an enemy, all the characters that participated in the battle will earn AP (Ability Points). When the character gains the enough amount of AP, their Sphere Level will increase. Each Sphere level will allow you to move one node forward, or the max of 4 nodes backward. As you move around the Sphere Grid, the characters are able to learn special abilites.
