Thieves Event
Thieves? Oh
wait, those guys, right?
Yup, those guys.
They heard us mention Isaac...
And assumed it
was the same Isaac they knew.
Well, it was...
It's like
there's only one Isaac in the whole of Weyard.
I troubled you
guys quite a bit, didn't I? Sorry...
Eh, it's not
your fault they decided to jump random people who knew you.
How did they even
get all the way over to Indra?
That's a good
question. Probably the same way as Feizhi...
In Golden Sun, you defeat some thieves who stole the Shaman's Rod from Hammet. They get thrown into Vault's jail. After leaving the Lamakan Desert, you can visit Vault and upon speaking to the mayor of Vault, you will learn that the thieves have escaped from jail.
If you transfer data to The Lost Age, you will encounter the thieves after returning to Madra with Piers, speaking to the mayor, and seeing the scene with Karst then leaving Madra. The thieves will have overheard you mentioning Isaac and attack you. After the battle, they will give you the Golden Boots, then flee.
