Garen Forest is the first area in the main Scenario area of the Battle Map. It is a mainly forested area home to a variety of different Monsters. It is available to players first completing the in-game tutorial after making their initial summons, and it is also where players are tested by Ellia in Stage 1.
According to Ellia, Garen Forest had always been known as a very peaceful place, although players are required to investigate it after Durand mentions reports of a recent monster outbreak.
Garen Forest is a straightforward area. Following the tutorial will allow players to complete Normal Mode.
In Stage 7, Garen Forest's boss appears as a rather humongous Inugami (Water) but with slightly different stats and skills. It does not appear with two underlings as most bosses do. Players should focus on attacking it as much as possible while keeping an eye on allies that are either low-level fire element monsters or have low health.
