Yo, I adore this game, But I'm stumped since I've talked to Maria and now I can't get to the ruins. No idea what to do at all, Ruins are just locked for me. Can't progress further or get the old gang back together.
You seem to have to buy the canoe, immediately. Do not wait. I ran through twice and first time I waited. I have to load a save point, prior to Maria's shop first being available.
