Upon completion of the fight and cutscene, you will find yourself at or around level 10. Use your Zoomstone or Walkthrough Warp to head back to your village, and turn in the quest. You should end up with a new key item, the Intercontinental Train Pass! This is your primary way of traveling around the five islands, but you first have to reach a town that has a Train Station.

You will also receive the Mark of Adulthood, a key item that allows you to talk to “important people”, and three Support Companions.
You will also receive the Mark of Maturity, a key item that allows you to talk to “important people”, and three Support Companions.


'''''Support Companions''''' are computer-controlled allies that fight according to your orders, such as “Fight Wisely.” The ones you receive from completing your starting village are fine for now, but eventually you will want to replace them — in fact, almost immediately upon reaching your first city. Follow the in-game Adventure Guide to do so — when you arrive at your starting city (Orphea, Julet, Mount Gatara, Wind Town Azlan, or Glen Castle), get ready to do some serious side-quests.

One last thing to go over is something quite important that will make getting around even easier, and that a lot of players miss. This is the '''Content Guide''', which lists the various types of side content available. To view it, open your Main Menu and go to '''Misc.''', '''Play Guide''', and then '''Content Guide.''' You will be able to view essentially all side content available in the game, with an icon next to each denoting which version it becomes available in.

Selecting one will give you summary of what the content entails, the rewards you can receive from it, its availability, and the necessary requirements to participate. The important thing to note here is that '''if you meet all of the requirements of the content, you can use the Content Guide to warp to it immediately'''. This can save precious Zoomstone slots if there is content you do frequently, and can even be used as a way to get around more quickly if you'd rather not take the trip to a Bazoom Girl. Make sure to give it a good look, there might be some interesting content that you've missed!

Upon entering your starting city (Glen Castle, Julet Town, Wind City Azlan, Mount Gatara or Orphea), you will get a cutscene with a fairy who grants you the Yellow Diary. From now on, you will see NPCs with yellow names — talk to them for a free Mini Medal and, more important, one free Zoomstone!

There are a ton of things for you to take care of, but first and foremost is joining a Team. If you’re reading this, you are likely unable to read Japanese, so you should pick one of the [https://dqxabbey.com/pages/community.html fantastic English communities listed on DQXAbbey] and ask for a Team invite. They’ll need your ID and Player Name, which you can find via Main Menu > Stats. Be aware that your “translated” Player Name will not work — they need the kana specifically.

While waiting for a Team invite, head to the Post Office, indicated by a letter icon on your map. If you bought the All-In-One edition and input the code during registration, you should have received a welcome package in your mail. Retrieve it. There should be 10 Golden Petals in your inventory now. Head to the nearest item shop and sell these for a whopping 100,000 Gold a piece. You now have enough Gold to get you through the majority of the story.
