|———————-|———————————————————————————————————————–|
| Bad Ending | Agree to Nanami’s proposal to escape from the war during the Tinto conflict, resulting in an early game conclusion. |
| Standard Ending | After defeating the final boss, accept the proposal in the Great Hall to continue leading the army. |

Refuse to fight Jowy at Tenzan Pass and only defend during the duel while refusing multiple times the rune he offers. |

Tips for Achieving Best Endings in Both Games

1. Save Frequently: Regular saves are crucial, particularly before pivotal decisions or recruitment opportunities, allowing you to reload and correct your path if necessary.
2. Character Recruitment: Keep a checklist of all characters you need to recruit. Engage in side quests vigorously to ensure no one is overlooked.
3. Choices Matter: In critical emotional moments, such as the duels or interactions with key characters, your dialogue choices can greatly influence the outcomes, so read through and consider your decisions carefully.
