there are some scenes hard to get without knowing where to search, but besides this game it's pretty beatable without a walkthrough
Bel'rana is indeed on the second floor sitting at some kind of bar. When you're party is full you can't put any one else into it so you do need to get Bel'rana out and after that you can easily invite young Farah back in.
Will try to find Bal'rana when back home. But, about Farrah, I can't even see the options of Socialize or Battle Strategy. When I talk to her, she says something generic instead... But thanks in advance!
She is in the same room with Kythie. The image I see is of the young Farrah... Dunno if this is some bug because I imported a save from old version, but it seems this isn't the case... In the case of Bal'rana, I solved the problem editing the save and setting ON the switch #782...
I heard, from a previous post here, that there is a bug in that battle at night.

Can you trigger it manually by altering the variable yourself, and if so what might be the variables number? Btw, the homestead scene still freezes at a black screen for me. This might be because I did the very first homestead scene in an older version and without having done the first scene it might work in this version.
