Diddle's Letter

Diddle's Letter is a quest in Legend of Mana.

Premise
During his daily perigrinations to Domina, the main protagonist notices a duo of entertainers in Mana Angela Park. Talking to the shorter performer named Diddle makes him leaves the premises while his simian partner wonders why he left. A while later, Capella expresses to the hero his concerns whith his partner wandering off without telling him, making him worry that his juggling might suffer without his music. Capella then leaves the aera and is seen at the town's inn conversing with the proprietor Miss Yuka. According to a Sproutling Capella spoke to, a bird was seen carrying something that resemble Diddle. Since Miss Yuka matches the avian profile, the monkey thought that she might have been involved with Diddle's disappearance, but the feathery lady claims that can't fly, so she cannot be targeted as a suspect. Capella proceeds to inadvertently insult the lady bird by calling her a chicken, which she corrects by telling that she's a canary. Midly hurt by the misunderstanding, the owner tells the simian acrobat that she saw Diddle buy a stamp a while ago, so Pelican might have taken him in the process. This convices Capella to purchase a stamp himself and bolt out of the establishment. Miss Yuka confides in the protagonist that he/she should search for clues where he/she last saw him. While scouting the west part of town, the main character meets with the juggler again, still searching for his friend. He hypothesizes that Diddle might have stuck a stamp to his face so that the Pelican tried delivering him. he then proceeds to do the same and is immediately grabbed by the mailbird. While struggling to get away from his captor, Capella is quickly swep away. Pelican confirms to the protagonist that she mailed him to Luon Highway. After winding his/her way to the highway, the main character discovers a stray letter in the middle of the road. A nearby Capella gingerly reads the letter and identifies Diddle's handwriting. If given the option to read the letter, the juggler finds out that his partner was unhappy with their lack of attendance and wanted to go home. This realization annoys Capella to the point of hurring down a road. The duo finally meet again near the entrance to a cave where Diddle asks his partner if he has read his letter. Capella denies the fact but is quickly found out. The shocked musician bolts off to the Chobin Hood Caves when the protagonist must vanquish a Giga Rex to find Diddle again. The two performers mend differences and Diddle offers the main character a Gator Skin as thanks.

Solution
Enter Domina. Go to the Park with the Fountain and talk to Diddle. He’ll leave the screen; follow him and then re-enter the Park and talk to Capella. Leave the screen, go to the Outskirts of Domina (far left point), and come back to the Park to talk to Capella again. Follow him to the center of town and talk to the Sproutling.

Go to the Inn (the upper left door in the center of Domina) and listen to the conversation. Talk to Miss Yuka and then go to the Outskirts of Domina (that far left point on the Domina Map). Listen to the conversation with the Mail Pelican. Go to the World Map and then return to the Outskirts of Domina again. Talk to the Mail Pelican and she’ll tell you to go to the Highway.

Enter Luon Highway, and go to the second fork:


 * Right
 * Right
 * Lower Right
 * Right

There will be a letter at the fork in the path. Tell Capella to read it and go to the Lower Left, and then Left to find Diddle. Tell him that Capella read the Letter. Go into the caves and use these directions:


 * Lower Left
 * Lower Left
 * Talk to Capella
 * Upper Left

Fight the Giga Rex and after the the battle you get a Gator Skin (keep it for a later Event).
