Prerequisites: The Gorgon Eye, Two Torches Create the Mindas Ruins with the Ancient Tablet and enter. Duelle will greet you and explain that Teapo has gotten lost in the ruins while looking for tea leaves -- and, of course, it's your job to save her. Grab the Virgin's Sigh from the chest, then venture north into the ruins. Fight westward through the monsters until you reach a screen with several exits. First, take the one in the upper-right to reach a chest with a Blackened Bat. If you'd like more chests, you can also go west from the main intersection, past the Tower of Winds and through the gates, to a screen with a Sharp Claw and Morph Meat. Otherwise, go southeast to another monster-filled screen. Fight through the enemies here. On the next screen, you'll see Teapo wandering off, but you're separated by the Flowerkey-activated gates. Continue west for two more screens to reach a Flowerkey corner. Talk to the center Flowerling to make two more appear. These two are the Flowerkeys; the positions they are standing in represent which gates are closed and which are open -- for example, if the Flowerkeys are standing in the upper-left and lower-right (as they should be right now), the upper-left and lower-right gates will be barred. You can move the Flowerkeys left and right by talking to them; move the upper one to the right. Return to the gates and you'll find the north gate open. Proceed in that direction. (Ignore the chest to the south; you can't get it yet.) You'll soon come to a Megalithic Structure, but you can't really do anything here for now. Climb up the stairs, go left, and climb back down. Exit west and you'll be at another set of gates. Continue northwest into a second Flowerkey corner. Switch both Flowerkeys to the right side of the room. Return to the gates and exit to the southwest. Head west another screen. Grab the Creepy Eye from the chest and talk to the Flowering. You'll receive the message "Psychokinesis Activated." Return to the previous Flowerkey Corner and move the bottom Flowerkey. Head southeast back to the Megalithic Structure. Talk to the Flowering on the right side of the screen and she'll open the door for you (now that you have "psychokinesis activated"). Descend inside and fight your way through all the enemies, including the rare Ape Mummies. Eventually, you'll come across Teapo being attacked by Count Dovula. Fortunately, Dovula is a wimp; you shouldn't have any trouble defeating him. You're automatically warped out of the ruins after defeating Dovula. Your reward for completing the quest is either an Artifact or a piece of metal.
