Throughout the course of the game, the majority of the inhabitants of Youngtown are children, exceptions being [[Tom Garrickson]] and presumably the salesman in the town's [[drug store]], as the adults of the town have disappeared. Several children either express concern over the whereabouts of their parents,<ref>"Where is my Mommy? Where is my Daddy?" - NPC</ref><ref>"Mom!! I miss you!!!" - NPC</ref><ref>"Dad!! I miss you!!! - NPC</ref> or ask the party to comfort them.<ref>"Please hold me!" - NPC</ref><ref>"Hold me, too!" - NPC</ref><ref>"Hold me!" - NPC</ref> One boy remarks on how he heard the voice of his father coming from the [[Mt. Itoi|mountains]] beyond [[Ellay]], being the location were the adults of the town are revealed to be held captive.<ref>"I heard my Dad's voice coming from the mountains. But the mountains are beyond the town of Ellay. It's so far away I can't make that journey." - NPC</ref> One girl also mentions how a "big ship from the sky" took her parents away, implying that they were abducted.<ref>"A big ship from the sky took Mom and Dad away." - NPC</ref> | |||
A church which remains empty throughout the game is located in the center of the town, likely being due to the abduction of the town's adults. In the northwestern portion of the town lies the home of the Garrickson family. Located inside of the house is [[Tom Garrickson]], and a girl and a [[Garrickson baby|baby]], presumably being his children. The baby possesses psychic abilities, and teaches [[Teleport]] to [[Ninten]] and [[Ana]] when exposed to [[Telepathy]]. | |||
To the north of the town is a train station, which cannot be used due to the destruction of a bridge that connects the station's railroad tracks with the other train stations. | |||
