Haru, Elie, and Plue find a chariot being pulled by an unusual creature with a smaller creature named Griff as the driver. The group continues north where the blacksmith Musica believes the next Rave Stone may be. After finding a spot to camp for the night, Elie takes Plue with her to a natural hot spring located just moments away from where they set up camp. At the hot spring, Elie decides to twist Plue's nose-- and that deflates him! After trying many ways (which includes pumping with air, putting in the ground, filling with water, and many more) to bring Plue back to his normal state, he is still flat. Griff mentions that a special strawberry might be the only cure. Elie takes off by herself to find the berry, and while she is searching for the berry she is attacked by a monster. The monster threatens to eat her, and then Haru shows up just in time to save Elie! Plue is given the special strawberry and returns to his original state.
