Farebury is the home of the fortune-teller [[Kalderasha]], who will occasionally dispense guidance to the party. Another person of notable interest is a merchant that mans the [[armor shop]], who will periodically hint at the location of [[Alchemy_recipe|recipe]]s as the adventure progresses if spoken to behind the counter.

Farebury is the home of Master [[Rylus]], a teacher in the magical arts and former master of [[Dhoulmagus]]. The {{Hero 8}}, [[Yangus]], [[Trode]] and [[Princess Medea|Medea]] enter the town with the intention of questioning Rylus on his pupil's whereabouts. The Hero finds a drunk fortune-teller by the name of Kalderasha in the town's bar who mentions that Rylus was killed in a house-fire. Upon interacting with him, he starts an impromptu fortune-telling session which is interrupted by a man barging into the bar, crying that a "monster" is in town. This monster is in fact Trode, causing the townsfolk to harass the party out of town. They then elect to leave Farebury behind and continue their search for Dhoulmagus before [[Valentina]], the daughter of Kalderasha stops them at the gate and pleads for their help. She says that she had a dream involving the party, and that they may be able to assist her.

Meeting her in Kalderasha's home in the back of town, she explains that her father once possessed extraordinary clairvoyant powers and was known all over the world, but suddenly lost his powers one day. She suspects it's because he replaced his crystal ball with a glass one, throwing away the former. Kalderasha then enters the scene, becoming confused as to what Valentina is doing and why the Hero is in his house. He surmises that she was asking the Hero to help regain his powers, stating that he does not need any help before going off to bed. Valentina apologizes for her father's abrasive behavior and implores them to find and return his crystal ball. Upon saying yes, she will give further details of her dream, pointing the party towards the [[Waterfall Cave]].

After the party defeats a brain-damaged merman by the name of [[Geyzer]] and brings the crystal ball back to Kalderasha's house, he will confront the Hero and explain that he foretold that they would retrieve his former fortune-telling device. He states that the Hero wasted his time, and he will simply throw away the crystal ball again as many times as needed. Upon being told to not "throw things in the fallwater" as mentioned by Geyzer, Kalderasha in a fit of anger demands the crystal ball be given to him, and that he will destroy it once and for all. Valentina then suddenly appears, saying that she knows why Kalderasha threw away his crystal ball. Many years ago, the fortune-teller foresaw the death of Valentina's parents through it, and did nothing to change their fate. He took the orphaned Valentina in and, out of guilt, tossed the crystal ball deep into the Waterfall Cave. Despite knowing the truth, Valentina explains that she would dearly like to see Kalderasha in his former glory again.

The Hero and Yangus are offered a night's rest, and in the morning Kalderasha thanks the Hero, saying that he feels in his element looking into the crystal ball. He then sees a jester breaking down the southern checkpoint, allowing the party to continue their quest.
