Kris and Susie then get the opportunity to interact with some of the NPCs, do some shopping and playing minigames. It is then revealed that the old Dark World no longer exists, as a consequence of the Eastern Fountain being sealed. After bringing everything back, characters from Chapter 1 appear inside the Castle Town. Immediately upon entering, Ralsei asks Kris to return back to the Light World and bring everything from the Unused Classroom back to the Castle Town. Kris and Susie enter Castle Town again at the beginning of the second chapter, this time on purpose. The two of them then proceed to go through the Great Door, into Field, to give chase to Susie.

After Kris completes Ralsei's tutorial, the two of them move towards the 'Great Door,' which Ralsei seems surprised to see opened. Just outside the town, Ralsei offers to teach Kris about encounters by having them fight a training Dummy. Ralsei recommends to Kris that they follow Susie, as he guides Kris out of the castle. Susie declares she'll keep going by herself, and walks out of the castle, into Field.

Ralsei then walks back to the heroes, takes off his hood, and reveals his identity to be Ralsei the Prince. He proclaims that, the next time the heroes meet him, they'll be the losers, before leaving the scene. Lancer engages the heroes in combat, and is subsequently defeated. After introducing himself to Kris and Susie, Lancer explains that he'll defeat the two of them to make sure they don't go east, their only way home. Before Ralsei can change Susie's mind, Lancer busts in and knocks Ralsei away. After hearing the tale, Susie explains that she has no intention of helping the Darkners, stating that it 'might even be kind of fun, honestly' if the world is to be destroyed. In the castle, they meet a hooded Ralsei, who tells the party of The Prophecy and that the two of them are the Heroes of Light/Delta Warriors mentioned in the prophecy. The two heroes enter the town, only to find it deserted, and continue into the castle.

Kris and Susie first enter Castle Town after they slide down a cliff in ?, escaping Lancer's attacks.
