I finished filling out my level 20 equipment and spells yesterday, and today I took the long adventure with my level 25 friend to Jeuno. A whm/blm and war/monk respectively, it was a trip frought with danger (we got aggroed by several unpleasantly difficult tiger-monsters in Battalia Downs). I can't believe how worth it, the trip was, upon crossing the gates. Windurst is a great city, as are the other two starter towns, and while the two port cities Mhuara and Selbina are dumps, Jeuno is amazing. RuLude Gardens - wow. Anyhow, not too much point except to express my amazement at the home of the next 55+ levels of my character's career. And now, it's time to get a chocobo license.
