Lv6. Enables the ability to use the Kafra Storage

Requirements: Basic Skill Lv.5
There are NPCs called “Kafra Employee” in every town and in some special areas, that allows users to save their start point, that they return to if they should die.

The storage service requires a small fee for every time you go into it, which can change depending on the Kafra Employee you speak to.
