Gondowan Cliffs

The Gondowan Cliffs are a series of ridges and rocky outcrops rising out of the small channel of sea at the narrowest point between the continents of Gondowan and Indra, and distorting their coastlines at that point. East of the Cliffs lies the Indran town of Madra, while to the west is the village of Naribwe in Eastern Gondowan.

The Cliffs were formed when events at the end of Golden Sun caused a large earthquake and tidal wave, which pushed the continent of Indra southwards and wedged it in between Gondowan and Osenia. The Cliffs can be quite treacherous to navigate, and contain many monsters. Never the less, the Cliffs allow for land travel between the two continents, and allowed the violent warriors of the Kibombo tribe to raid Madra and steal the Black Orb that controlled Piers' Lemurian Ship.

There is also a hidden cave revealed by the use of Whirlwind where one can encounter warriors from Kibombo right after they raid Madra and view a scene.

Walkthrough
First Time Through

For the mean time, you can't get everything here, but you can still cross. To begin with, use Scoop on the sandy patch the dog is sniffing - it'll unearth a geyser which you can use to jump up to a ledge. Slide down the groove, hop across the gap, then climb the vines. Go left, and climb up the rest of the vines until you get to three grooves. Slide down the middle one (you can go right and use Lash on a rope if you get the wrong one). Hop over the gap and walk around to a rocky stump on the edge of the cliff. Use Move to push it into the water, then go back and use the groove to slide down. Climb down onto the rocks above the water using the vine.

To get across, go: Left, Left, Left, Up, Up, Left, Up, Left, Left, Down, Down, Left, Up, Up, Up, Right, Right, Right, Right, Up, across the stump and to the vines. Back on solid ground, head north to some more vines. Go around to the right, then when the rocks narrow, you can hop across to the left. Go north, up the vines, and follow the cliffs around to the right to get a Sleep Bomb from the chest. Then go back down, climb down the vines and head left. Keep climbing up and ignore the long tightrope - go up the next set of vines and follow the cliffs to the right. You'll get to a junction between some vines and a path south. The vines lead to a dead end, so go south, past the puddle. If you keep going south, you can fight Kindle, the Mars Djinni to make it join you. Exchange Kindle (which will join Felix) for the other Mercury Djinni Jenna has.

If you go right to the set of vines you passed a moment ago, you can follow the path along and south to a finger of land with a red mushroom on the end - this is the Laughing Fungus. Take it, and then go all the way back left and cross the tightrope you ignored earlier. Follow the vines and the cliff southward until you can leave the cliffs to the west.

Second Time Through

Make your way back across Gondowan Cliffs, right back to the start. Just north of the geyser is a puddle which you should freeze with Frost. Once you have, climb up the vines to the right, and jump across. Keep going until you reach another puddle. Freeze this one, and use the vines to the north to climb up to the ledge on the right. Now use the ice pillar to hop across to the left. Drop down the groove, but don't go down the next one - instead run to the right around the cliff to get a Healing Fungus. Now you can leave Gondowan cliffs to the east.
