Oh, hmm. If I get a code from Balmung, would it let me go to that server or does it not work like that?

I can keep playing the trial version, I just hit a wall with the main story and got a little annoyed since I couldn't ask for help hehe. I just did Step Nine, and I couldn't find the next main quest. The wiki said it was in Central Shroud, but the map wasn't particularly helpful in getting me there. I wasn't doing very many side quests because one of the new player FAQs recommended saving them for leveling other classes.
