Princess Maker: Children of Revelation Expeditions
The three regions
| Region | Village | Who and what you find there | Blocked paths and tips |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primordial Mountain | Forest Tribe village (tea room, item shop, clothing store) | Olea, Clivia; the World Tree; a fairy spot (+3 Sensitivity); Suspicious Mages near the ancient ruins | Spirit on the second bridge wants a Spirit Gem (peddler); tree-blocked shortcuts need the leaf charm from Olea or Clivia |
| Mabian | Beastfolk village by the waterfall | Lupo and Charles; Hero's Statue (Lupo event); kindly spirits; Spirit Cake (pushes Chaos) and Order Lunchbox (pushes Lawful) at the restaurant | Rock on the waterfall shortcut needs the leaping charm; Scylla's cave near the rafflesia island needs a Phoenix Feather (peddler) |
| Azran Mountains | Dragonfolk village in the desert | Gracillis and Cresty; the old dragon in the dragon ruins; a demon in the far-left cave; Lapas (clay-doll monsters) near the first fork; Sand Layes boss | Follow the black wall to find the exit; an automatic ticket gate fight could freeze the game in 0.9.6 (official known issue) |
How expeditions work
- Village first, then the field. You arrive in the village square (shops, the leader's house), then head out onto the map.
- Ratings. Fight with a sword equipped to earn Warrior rating, with a magic weapon to earn Magic rating. Completing the route gives a bigger boost.
- Movement. Agility makes her faster on the map. The Lively Steps card makes her always move quickly.
- Losing. A defeat sends her home (the It's Dangerous Outside achievement). Cube may come to the rescue.
- Radar. The Vigilance Radar from the peddler shows hints on the map and, since 0.9.7, blocks the wind.
- Loot. Swamp clams sell to the peddler (price raised in 0.9.7). Some chests give items instead of gold since 0.9.7.
Hidden outfits on the map
- Forest dress: Spirit Gem to the bridge spirit at Primordial Mountain, then the chest across the bridge.
- Dragon Leotard: second visit to the old dragon in the Azran Mountains with Charm 200+.
- Devil Dress: bring the Demon's Pendant to the far-left cave in the Azran Mountains and accept the demon's third deal.

Expedition questions
When can my daughter go exploring?
From age 12. One playthrough shows exploration also needs about 600 condition to start.
How many regions are there?
Three: Primordial Mountain, Mabian and the Azran Mountains. The fan wiki lists a fourth, Lake Barze, from promotional art; it is not in the game.
What changed in 1.0 combat?
Attacks now cost MP, you can flee during a battle, and combat formulas and regional difficulty were rebalanced. Players are already asking how to refill MP; no answer has been confirmed yet.
Can I shop in a region without spending the whole expedition?
Yes. Cancel the expedition with Escape and choose to go home; the rest of the block counts as rest at home.
