Humphrey and Futch Quest Walkthrough

Humphrey and Futch Quest Walkthrough

1	From Rockaxe Town, travel southeast to reach Highway Village.
2	Enter the Inn, where a cutscene will trigger. Afterward, speak with Humphrey, who is standing near the staircase. Another cutscene will play, after which Humphrey will pay for your stay at the Inn for the night. ▶︎ Highway Village Guide
3	The next morning, exit the Inn to watch a cutscene of Kent leaving Highway Village. Head back inside and speak with Humphrey again, then talk to the front desk to rest for another night.
4	The following morning, head downstairs to find out that Kent has gone missing. When prompted, make sure to accept Humphrey’s request to search for him. Humphrey and Futch will then join your party afterward. Note that refusing to help to look for Kent will permanently lock you out of recruiting both Humphrey and Futch.
5	From Highway Village, head north to reach Rakutei Mountain.
6	Upon entering, a cutscene will play. The path through Rakutei Mountain is pretty straightforward. Just follow the main path while exploring side paths whenever possible to collect treasures. Be ready to fight enemies along the way! ▶︎ Rakutei Mountain Dungeon Guide
7	Continue going forward until you find a Journeyman Orb on the left. Be sure to save your game before proceeding. Also prepare for an upcoming boss battle by making sure your party is fully healed and properly equipped. ▶︎ How to Save Progress
8	When you're ready, move forward to trigger a cutscene, which will lead to a battle against the Harpy. The boss has no weakness, so focus on unleashing your strongest attacks while maintaining your party's health with heals. ▶︎ Harpy Boss Guide
9	After defeating the Harpy, another cutscene will play. Go forward and interact with the Dragon Egg. Once the next cutscene is over, you'll find yourself back in Highway Village, where Futch and Humphrey will officially join your party!
