Walk to the center of the platform, and three pedestals will appear, each holding a weapon. You're now forced to choose one of the weapons, and give up a second one. The choice you make determines your stats and the order in which you learn your abilities. You'll also get to use the chosen weapon for this tutorial part. | ||

Some popular choices are: | |||
*Choose Dream Shield, give up Dream Sword - This is a very good beginner setup. Choosing the shield gives you defensive abilities quite early, and giving up the sword instead of the rod gives you a little extra AP to equip them. | *Choose Dream Shield, give up Dream Sword - This is a very good beginner setup.

*Choose Dream Rod, give up Dream Shield - If you want to focus on using Magic, you have to choose the Dream Rod. Those two extra MP are going to make a ton of difference in both the amount of Magic you can use, as well as the power of your spells. The difference between giving up the sword or shield is an extra 2 STR or DEF, which isn't that much, but giving up the shield has you start with just 1 DEF, which is not a lot. | *Choose Dream Rod, give up Dream Shield - If you want to focus on using Magic, you have to choose the Dream Rod.

You'll summon the weapon you chose, and learn about HP and MP, and how to attack. And now it's time for your very first battle.

A bunch of them appear, but you only need to defeat one for the others to retreat. You'll learn about EXP and prizes, and another Shadow will try to attack you from behind. That might be a problem if it weren't for a very useful tool: Lock-on. Lock-on allows you to target and follow a specific enemy. Use Lock-on to defeat the group of Shadows, and a retreating Shadow will cause you to sink into darkness until you awake on a third platform, featuring three unidentified women, and a semi-transparent door. | You'll summon the weapon you chose, and learn about HP and MP, and how to attack.

|What choice you should make regarding your EXP growth kind of depends on your playstyle. If you're a beginner, or just looking for a quick run-through, "dawn" will be the best option, as it levels you up quicker at lower levels. If you're planning on getting Sora to LV 100, "dusk" is a better option, as the total EXP required is a lot lower. If you're not sure, you can always choose "noon". | |What choice you should make regarding your EXP growth kind of depends on your playstyle.

You find yourself on a wooden structure overlooking a vast ocean with three other characters. Fans of the ''Final Fantasy'' series might recognize them as Selphie from ''Final Fantasy VIII'', and Tidus and Wakka from ''Final Fantasy X''. Each will ask you a question, with three possible answers. The answers you give decide the amount of EXP you'll need to level up. There are three possible outcomes: "dawn" will require less EXP in the beginning but more at the end, "dusk" will require more EXP at the beginning but less at the end, and "noon" is kind of balanced between the two. Fortunately, there's no complicated formula for what choices to make. The top answers will result in dawn, the middle answers in noon, and the bottom answers in dusk. After answering all three, you get to confirm your choice. Afterwards, you'll find yourself on another station, featuring Aurora. Walk towards the light, and you'll learn about the Menu screen. However, you can't open it during battle and a bunch of Shadows appear. | |||
After the battle, a Save Point appears. Save Points allow you to save your game (obviously), but standing on one also restores your HP and MP. Stand on the Save Point and a beam of light creates a stairway. | After the battle, a Save Point appears.

|Tech Points are bonus EXP obtained during battle. Tech Points can be earned by deflecting attacks with precise timing, or using certain Magic on specific enemies. There's no limit to the amount of Tech Points you can obtain during battle, which makes some fights a good way to grind just by parrying attacks.
