| Disney Castle |
| After you leave Olympus Coliseum, head to Disney Castle (a Battle Level 18 world) to the north of Hollow Bastion. Disney Castle is, of course, home to King Mickey and Queen Minnie - not to mention Donald's long-time girlfriend, Daisy! Unfortunately, with the King gone and Donald off fighting with Sora, there is no one to combat the growing Heartless problem at home. Get in there and help protect Queen Minnie! Storming the Castle The Courtyard in Disney Castle is full of treasure chests - and Heartless! - making ti a great place to level up and acquire some loot. Treasure chests appear on and around the topiary along the edges of the courtyard. It should come as no surprise then, to find the largest concentration of Heartless hiding out there as well. Eliminate each group of Soldiers, Shadows and Minute Bombs, then grab the treasure from its chest. Escorting Minnie, Part One Queen Minnie needs to get to the Audience Chamber, but she's no match for the Heartless. Fortunately, Sora and Minnie have a cooperative Reaction Command attack called Faith that makes this process much simpler, although a bit slow. There are about 4-5 spawn points along the balcony from the Library to the Audience Chamber. Trigger each one with Sora alone, then lead the monsters back to where Queen Minnie awaits. When the Heartless draw into range, blast them with Faith. This attack causes area of effect damage with a knockback effect. After clearing an area, move Sora ahead and beckin Queen Minnie with the Call Over Reaction Command. Continue in this manner until you reach the door. If this method is too slow, you can wade into each spawn point with Sora alone and slaughter the monsters the normal way. However, you must keep an eye on Queen Minnie, though, as a few of the Heartless may cause damage to her. Queen Minnie has a nice magic orb attack, so she's not totally defenseless. The last monsters are more powerful (Shadows, Minute Bombs and a Bolt Tower), but once you defeat them, use the Finish Reaction Command to end the event and open the door. Escorting Minnie, Part Two Inside the Audience CHamber, there is nothing but Bolt Towers as far as the eye can see. The goal here is to safely escort Queen Minnie to the throne on the other side of the room. Again, relying on the Faith Reaction Command is the safest way to go, although again, it's not the fastest method. The Bolt Towers float over to Sora and Minnie as though they are being drawn by a magnet. This means that you can clear the room of the monsters without leaving the starting point. Simply wait until the mob draws within range and blast them with Faith. Blast them again when they return. The alternative is to wade into the crowd and fight each Bolt Tower individually. If you take this approach, you may find that the enemies get too close too fast and cause damage to Queen Minnie. Using Faith is a surefire way to defeat the room of Bolt Towers without risking Queen Minnie's life. After leading Queen Minnie to the throne, use the Finish Reaction Command to end the event. The Get Bonus reward is an extra Accessory Slot and the Auto Summon ability. Merlin and the Magic Door In the Hall of the Cornerstone, Minnie reveals the source of the Castle's corruption and suggests that Sora return to Hollow Bastion to see if Merlin can help out. Use the Save Point to exit to the World Map and fly to Hollow Bastion (which is now Battle Level 15!). Merlin takes you back to the Hall of the Cornerstone where he conjures up a magic door to the past. When you are ready, the goal is to enter the magical door and travel to Timeless River. It's time to defeat the evil back when it started to occur, thus preventing it from attacking the Castle in the present time. |
