Now that Deadbeard has been bested, it's time to head to where Iodem wanted us to go originally, Babi Lighthouse. Still under construction, Babi's plan to see Lemuria from the top of it is likely not going to work due to plot (otherwise known as psynergy) and because the game is almost over.
The Babi Lighthouse serves as the entrance to the final dungeon but isn't a point of no return; you're free to backtrack to Lalivero so you can heal up and buy supplies. I imagine that's why they put the final town so close to the final dungeon, though at this point we don't need more consumables. We've barely used the ones that we have and the final portion of the game won't make us burn through them by any stretch.
Another thing that we have plenty of is plot in our future, delivered as Golden Sun always does in lengthy cutscenes. If you remember how many cutscenes there were for the first lighthouse in the game, just consider how much longer they've been getting of late and apply that to the Venus Lighthouse.
There's still a ways to go yet.
At 2:57 there is a cut segment due to an audio issue. No commentary was lost.
