Stage 5: Inner Quarters
Mission: Get the walk on water soul
Boss: Headhunter

Once here go up to the top. To get the red potion jump to the right side of the top, then jump left and then jump again while gliding to get the potion. Then go right to the next room. Go all the way to the top of this room and then go left to access the next save point. Go back out of the save point and go right to the next room. There now you can go fight the next boss if you would like, or you can go back to level up. If you are ready to fight the boss go right and enter the blue room!

Boss: Headhunter
Difficulty: *****/*****

The first part isn't so bad. When her head attaches to her body you want to remain as close to her as possible and attack. You may get hurt by her a few times but don't go backwards. What you want to do is to push her all the way to the right wall. Once she is there you can attack her repeatidly and she can't move or attack you! It's too bad this is the easy part. Once she is dead a man will take her body and now fly above you. Also be sure to duck when you are attacking her. For the 2nd form you want to equip the skeleton soul and attack from the ground. Jump over the fire attacks and go inbetween the orbs to dodge the lightning attacks. If you get the chance to, attack him with your sword on the floating flatforms. Don't be afraid to use a HP or MP potion, but only use one of each if any. Once you beat him its not over yet! There is still 1 more form left. The last form he will turn into a lizard. What you want to do is wait for him to come to you. When he is on the roof don't stand directly below him. Wait for him to fall and then then attack him while ducking. If you have any MP left be sure to use it. The best time to attack him is when your ducking and he sticks out his toung. Beat him, pick up the orb, then go back and save. Now go back to the boss room again and go right this time to the next room. Once in here go up right away (It's hidden with your health) so you are now outside the castle. Slowly kill all of the enemies out here because if you don't they will haunt you the whole way up. Once at the top of here go left and pick up the sword and then go right to pick up a new yellow soul to let you walk on water!!!

Now go all the way back to the room where you fought the very first boss. From here go right one room and then down. Then go left to the next room and swim all the way to where you can go up. Be sure to equip the soul to allow you to walk on water and jump up and go right to the next stage.
