Shining Force 2: Where am I? What next?

I just loaded up a Shining Force 2 savegame from YEARS ago. The problem is, I have no idea where I am, what I'm supposed to be doing, etc.

Can anybody look at this screenshot (okay, picture of my TV) and tell me what I should do next?

I've tried placing myself in the walkthrough here, but shockingly enough there isn't a "when you have a Gandalf, a Fairy, a Bird, and some kind of monster snail with you next to some trees, then go to xyz town".

So can anybody tell me what's going on or where I should go next? I know I'm passed the chess battle, but that's about all I remember.

Edit: Oh, and I'm near a town that almost blends in with the surrounding trees. I think I might have gone there to fight that secret infinite battle? But now I forget where I was actually supposed to be going!

I figured it out!

It turns out I had to take the fairy to the sick dwarf in the dwarf cave, which was just to the East of the town I last saved in, just off the river. In return, the dwarfs gave me a cannon.

Then I went to the town to the North (New Granseal?) and got some dynamite for the cannon. Now the next step is to go to the North Cliffs to blow up another cave entrance, to get to North Parmecia.

This can be found at the bottom of this page.

Mods: I'm not sure if I should answer this question or just delete it since it's probably useless to everybody else, so let me know if you want me to delete it!

You need to the dwarf cave and have the fairy heal the dwarf. I believe he will give you Dynamite or a cannon to use. Then go back to new Granseal. From there you'll be back on track.
