A City of Cards
I would call this city as the City of Cards as you can
find the card's family here. The card master, card artist,
card queen and her son are all found in this town. The
Card Queen travels a lot while leaving his son under the
care of her father, the Card Artist. The Card Master stays
and operates the pub found in the town.
You can start this optional quest during Squall's trip
or first visit to Galbadia Garden. To do this, do not
unboard the train and wait it reaches a area surrounded
by cliffs and a train station with a forest on its left.
Move right from there and you will be able to enter Dollet.
Please note that you cannot enter Dollet except via the
pathway.

At the main entrance of the town, Squall find the Rent-A-Car
shop. Walk south and you will find a restaurant and the
harbor. Move towards west and you will be back at the
place, where Squall and his friends been for his test.
Next, take the path heading northwest and you will find
the dog along the walkway. The dog will only appears if
you have save it durng the chase. Examine it and a cat
with a bell will fall onto the ground. Without the dog,
you are unable to do the following quest.

who is extremely upset with his grandson for messing up
his painting by drawing bones on the paintaing. You can
play cards with the boy by the way. Talk to the boy. Examine
the huge painting and it actually features a part of Dollet!
The quest is easy. First of all, you just need to head
for the area that is drawn in the painting and locate
