'''Giant Step''' is a location in [[EarthBound]], being the first of the [[Your Sanctuary|sanctuaries]], with its boss being [[Titanic Ant]]. It is found to the north of [[Onett]], blocked off by a locked shack. In order to reach the sanctuary, [[Ness]] rids the streets of the city from [[the Sharks]]. As thanks, Ness is given the [[List of key items in EarthBound#Key to the shack|key to the shack]] by the [[B.H. Pirkle|mayor of Onett]]. Exiting through the broken back wall of the shack leads to the cave entrance.

It is found to the north of [[Onett]], blocked off by a locked shack. In order to reach the sanctuary, [[Ness]] rids the streets of the city from [[the Sharks]]. Exiting through the broken back wall of the shack leads to the cave entrance.


Giant Step is home to several types of enemies, all based on small real world animals. The cave is named after a large footprint at the top of the hill, where Ness's [[Sound Stone]] will record the first [[Eight Melodies|melody]] after he has defeated Titanic Ant. When [[Ness]] exits out of the cave, he is told by a [[cop]] to come down to the police station for trespassing.

==Layout==
The Giant Step cave consists of three levels, with caves within which containing items. The three floors are fairly simple in layout, consisting of a straight path to the end. Ropeways are found at the end of each level which are used to traverse between levels. On the third level is the cave exit leading to a cliff outside. A [[Magic Butterfly]] will appear regularly as a healing break before the boss. On the west of the cliff is a cave leading back inside.
 
Back inside the cave follows through several more passageways, then it reaches two ropeways leading to the Sanctuary Guardian. When defeated, the exit to the Giant Step footprint becomes accessible.
 
==History==
The Giant Step serves as the first of Ness's Sanctuaries. After defeating [[Frank Fly]], he is told about the location as well as a strong guardan. As thanks for disbanding the Sharks, Ness is given the [[List of key items in EarthBound#Key to the shack|key to the shack]] by the [[B.H. Pirkle|mayor of Onett]]. Ness reaches the end where he meets the Sanctuary Guardian, the [[Titanic Ant]]. Ness emerges victorious against it, and proceeds to record the melody of the Giant Step.
 
When [[Ness]] exits out of the cave, he is told by a [[cop]] to come down to the police station for trespassing.
