Quests In Clive's Past

If you see the Mothercrystal Drake's Head when you reach a pivotal moment in the story, you cannot turn back. After progressing it, you will not be able to proceed with the quests in Clive's past. If you have any unfinished quests, complete them first!

Re-Watch The Cutscenes

Some cutscenes can be rewatched in the Replay Mode, but for others, you need to play a second time or start from the beginning to rewatch them. If you get lost in the story due to skipping them, you can check Vivian's Reports or The Thousand Tomes.
