A. History

v1.0
-Written out of boredom while playing thru this game to get a feel for it.
-First part written which covers to the first castle (if anyone can give me the 
names, please do so!)

v1.1
-Added Rank to the menu (before I had no clue what it was but now I know from 
experimenting ^_^!)
-TOTTALLY revised the walkthru after a friend of mine gave some criticism on 
v1.0..
-Added whatever else I added

1. Legalities..
So I didn't have some L33T intro.. who cares?! Anyway I don't care what you do 
with this FAQ, BUT leave it unchanged and/or unaltered, do not sell it (anyone 
who would pay for a .txt file barely 10kb in size is very stupid), because I put 
my work and time into it, not just so you L34M3R$ out there can rip it off..

2. Introduction
This is best veiwed (in my opinion) in Arial Narrow.
Double Moon Densetsu is an old NES RPG which I am also in the process of 
translating. I am doing this as I work thru it (well, the first few parts will 
be from memory; the rest on is as I go), so you can be assured of 99% accuracy 
(I will fill in the 1% when we finish the translation, and as I am beta 
testing).

3. FAQ v1.1
Okay first things first. If you know japanese, skip this. if you don't, read on!
The menus are as follows:
Main Menu:
Talk Look
Magic Item
Equip Rank 
Rank I was confused with because I was trying to use it when I only had 1 guy! 
It's for changing around your party members outside of battle.
Battle Menu:
Attack [I forget]
Magic Run
Item Defend
Again pelase tell me what [something] is!
Here are the orders of the magics the allies you later gets will begin with:
Ryeena:
Heal (something)
Protect
Ryona:
Heal Everyone
Ji-nasu:
MP-Sap(I think) Thunder Jolt
Also, if you hit Select, it will bring up a menu on which you can check the 
status of everyone in the party. It also shows the current HP/MP/Lv stats like 
in the battle menu.
Start does absolutley nothing as far as I can see ^_^

The Game:

You, defaulty named Yuuku, start out talking to a preist guy who tells you your 
parents and sister have been kidnapped. Then go and buy some stuff from the 
Equipment store, and head out. Stay RIGHT BY the town, or you will get your ass 
kicked very badly. The monsters just around town aren't very tough. Work up Exp. 
and Gold until you get around 300G or Lv3-4 (whichever comes first, but you 
should get the 300G anyway). Then go buy the 300G item (a good weapon) and equip 
it. 
After all that, head out to the next town. You will notice a change in this 
town, as it is gray all over. Nothing significant here except for the fact you 
can buy Herbs and Antidotes (Item shop, in that order Top-Bottom), and the Inn. 
Go out and get a few levels, and some more moolah. Then head out into the 
desert-like area and enter the castle. Go all the way down to the bottom and 
talk to the person you find at the end. He [Guessing] tells you his comrades 
have been kidnapped.[End Guessing} They are in the north cave. Before you head 
up there, make sure your Equipment is opt. and your level is around 6-7. Then go 
back to the 2nd town and buy some Herbs, then head for the cave.
Right when you walk in, a girl named Ryeena runs up to you. She is being 
attacked by two Wizards. They aren't tough HP wise, but that Fire spell hurts, 
so take them out fast. She then joins you, and you quest thru the cave. At the 
end, you see the comrades and a guy. Talk to the guy, and you will fight.
Boss:
Knight (true name unknown for all bosses)
HP:100-200
He isn't too tough, you should have about Lv 8-10 for Yuuku and 4-5 for Ryeena. 
Just pummel away and he will fall. After he does, the comrades run back to the 
castle. Walk back out, then back to the castle (or the town if you need a rest).
When you get back to the castle, talk to the guy again in front of the stairway. 
After a short conversation, he will move.
Inside the cave, the enimies are the same as the old ones. There are a few 
treasures you can get, but ultamitley you will run up against another boss. 
Hint: You will be in a 2 block passage that makes a right turn, just before that 
turn is the boss. You cannot see him, so he can surprise you.
Boss:
Ice Demon
HP:150-250
This is a tough little cookie. He sometimes uses this attack that does an 
incredible amount of damage to both members of your party. Have Yuuku pummel him 
to death while Ryeena uses Heal and Protect to back you up. You should use 
savestates (unles you actually own the game.. heh!) each round you survive. Once 
you win, nab the chest, which is a nice sword, and equip it on Yuuku, then head 
out.
Go back to the first town and get Ryeena a new weapon. It's called the 
Traveler's Cane for those who know some jap, and those who don't, the first one 
is Cane, look for an item with letters like it, and buy that for Ryeena.
Now, you should have noticed on your way back to town, the mountains around it 
are gone! Yes, now you may pass thru them.
Head north, and come to the next town. I don't know what you can really do here, 
except upgrade your stuff, so just leave and move on.
Now you will see a castle, go there and head north, straight for the Inn. You 
will see a girl there, her name is Ryona. Talk to her and she will join you. I 
beleive she is the King's Daughter, for she calls him Papa. Anyway, rest if 
needed and head for the castle inside the town. Head north until you see the 
Inn, then go in, take the stairs up in there, and go talk to the King. He give 
you permission to have a ship, so then after that conversation, go back out of 
the castle, and down to the shipyard (where the guard was standing). Talk to him 
and he will move. Take you ship and sail around. Notice, if you will, the music 
is a slower version of the land music. Something to ponder. Now, get some money 
for new weapons.
I can tell you the weaponlist here.Tthe first (I think) is a Rapier, next is 
Shiita, I have no clue what that is tho ^_^*. Then a leather helmet, a small 
sheild, and finally some nice Ring, er, Chain Mail ^_^.
After you have bought all that nice and expensive stuff, head for the island 
with the cave on it. Head inside the cave, and explore! It's a pretty big cave, 
and the monsters can prove to be nasty. If you see a monster that looks like a 
mix between and turtle and a tree, RUN. Those guys have VERY high defense and 
offense to kill for.. anyway explore explore explore, and then you come up on a 
guy looking over a treasure box. Walk up near him and Yuuku will can for his 
attention. Then a battle will ensue!
Boss:
Dark Knight, Tree Turtle
HPs: 300, 100
This is a very tough fight, mainly beacuse he has a Tree Turtle for an ally. 
Have Yuuku pummel the Dark Knight, have Ryeena back-up with Heal/Protect spells, 
and have Ryona attack. Note: Ryona has a special attack. If her HP drops to 50 
or below, have her defend (bottom right choice). She will use a healing ability 
that mega heals everyone for up to 100 HP! Very handy. After that, get the item. 
I think it's the Earring, I'm not sure (I know I found one somewhere..) anyway 
head out, and go back to the castle.
A Bard-like man will come up to you. His name is Ji-Nasu, and while I haven't a 
clue what he says, I do know he joins your party.
Go and talk with the King, and he will give you a mountain map.
Leave and go down to the mountains. Enter the area where you can stand on one. 
Stand there and use the Mountain Map (it should be the last item in Yuuku's 
inverntory.) A path withh appear. Enter the town. It's a barren waste, with 
three chests. Open the last one one the left (after the other two), and you get 
a surprise! Two bandits will come and attack. A supposed boss battle, but not 
tough enough to list here.
END FAQ.
For now I have yet to figure out what to do next. If anyone would like to
