ok, i'm stumped af. Just got through using the time machine for the 2nd part of Nel's past, and now the Barkeeper is telling me there's no new rumors. The lady at the hot springs is still making excuses, and the Glacial Grotto Entrance needs some sort of item. Similar to the item needed to unfreeze the gate. But i dont know how to get the orb out of the gate entrance.
Someone said i have to progress the story far enough to get another fire golem to spawn there, but so far, nothing is happening when i go to the temple. The fortune teller tells me i cant do anything for Ceres anymore, the Bartender has no more rumors, and the only thing i can do now is find the next body for this next ghost (the one after Faylen). She said something about a tough person, but i dont know who that would be.
