Boss 4: Guilen, The Fire-Eater
Nightmare Mode
Battle begins at 1:16

In the Zone of Lava, Adol finds a second magical bracelet similar to the Ignis Bracelet he received in Tigray Quarry. Dularn then appears and warns Adol that his fate is sealed, and sure enough an infernal demon is summoned to stop him.

Though Guilen's main purpose is to teach you how to use the Wind magic, it's no pushover until you figure out just how to attack it. As it emerges from the lava (causing a shockwave of damage), it tries to ram you down before it can submerge again. In order to evade it, jumping towards the inwards of the arena is needed, causing it to loop similar to Nygtilger from Ys I. Using wind magic then removes its flames and causes it some minor damage, giving you the opportunity to freely attack it if you can catch it.

Other things to be wary of are its fireball, flame breath, and of course the deep pits of lava which cause damage even with the Firewyrm Amulet (which let's you walk in shallow lava) on. This was easily one of the more frustrating bosses first time through the game, but it's not too bad once you get the hang of it.

With the fiery beast out of the way, Adol takes his new ability and continues to search for an escape.
