Make use of Path Actions

Path Action	Description
Allure (Daytime)	Bring people along on your journey (with a given probability). Summon them for support in battle.
Entreat (Nighttime)	Obtain items from people. You must be the appropriate level to succeed. Agnea must be the appropriate level to successfully Entreat for items.

Each side story has a different set of requirements that must be satisfied. Some involve overcoming enemies, while others call on you to provide supplies or communicate with an NPC in a different town. It is preferable to acquire every traveler character so that you can use every Path Action.

When you encounter a side story, be sure to pay close attention since the NPC will provide you with information on how to proceed to clear it. It is preferable to take a screenshot in case you forgot.
