'A good day to you! I am pleased to find another Minstrel here in Archet. I should be happy to share what skills I have with you. First, though, I will give you some small advice, if you are willing to lend an ear to it.

'As you may already know, a Minstrel possesses a great power...the power to stir the spirit and raise hopes when all seems lost. When the spirit is roused, the body soon follows! A good Minstrel heals themselves and their fellows, staving off even the most dire wounds.

'Demonstrate your mastery by entering combat with the training-dummy nearby, then using the skill Major Ballad.'

HINT:

Minstrels use Ballads to attack their enemies, lightly heal their fellows and empower themselves. These skills operate on a rotating system that allows the minstrel to have three special buffs on themselves at any time. After the third buff is applied the next Ballad played will overwrite the first, then the second and so on.

The Minstrel Trainer is in Archet, west of the training grounds.

Now that you have successfully used your newly-learned skill, you should return to your trainer and tell him of your success.
