Scarlet River Animal King??

[CCR]

I've just about had it. I've looked all over for the animal king. I'm playing in hard mode, but I still can't see an item to pick up and activate the fight. I read tips that said to enter, go down, then west, and that I'd see an item to pick up. I still can't find ANYthing. Any other more specific directions? I'm ready to give it up.

The tips are right. Just look more carefuly.

The Lord of the Roots is this

No dice, but I just figured out why. I read on another thread that Hirado has to be in the party before I can fight them. Jeebus. I've been combing Scarlet River for two hours

Oh good, happy playing then
