I believe you get a moonstone from them. But. . . . don't quote me on that. I haven't played that game in months.

If you are talking about the mountain path before Madain Sari, them you mmust find 4 stones,Red,Blue, Green and Yellow, when you have found them all, there is a statue at the ned o f th emountain path, where you can insert the stones, and when you give all the stones, you get an item. But I don't remember what item was it.

Hm, interesting. I will go try that now...

I don't think it's a moonstone, you can get that right at the start of the game. Giving a gamer that for such a silly puzzle that late in the game would be annoying as far as Square-Enix goes. I think it's one of the gems that gives Eiko her other summon, not Madeen, Phoenix or Fenrir...The other one. I forgot its name.

I actually played it just recently (a few month's ago) and I remember already having the stone that I got from that.

I think it was one of the ones that changes the effects of what Carbunkle does. I think it was the one that makes Carbunkle cast Haste on the party. I could be completely wrong though. That happens alot.

Well, the stone you get is ok for the time of the game, but not that special. I just can't remember anymore which one it was or what it did....

i am just playing ffIX and the stone that you receive from the statue is a moonstone.

It's not usless. They give it to you since you now have Eiko and may hae used the other one to make a pearl rouge by sythesis. And it doesn't give a summon, it gives beast killer and shell.

It is definately a moonstone that you get for completing the puzzle, i agree that it should be something better like an eidolon for Eiko or something but that is what you get.

Yep, it is a moonstone. I remember getting it, then having to put my playstation in storage.
