Proving Grounds cleared. That wasn't as bad as I was expecting from people's complaints. Too much back and forth for all the chests (made worse by me not remembering to check the flower transports in the main passageway until the end), but the puzzles weren't hard to figure out and the map helped with figuring out the pathways. At least the treasures at the end of all the backtracking seem worth it. Finally a skill rune for Kuroto! The boss fights were tough, and the first time I had to bust out magic all game.
