Zone 1: The Beast's Maw

The Beast's Maw

Despite an interesting name, this dungeon is fairly unoriginal and is home to more nuisance creatures than to monsters. The first two rooms in the first zone are mostly empty except for two enemies. The next area is an intersection containing up to two enemies and the only chest in this zone. From here, you can decide where to go; choosing to go through door C will lead you into a canyon in the second zone that contains only a couple of nuisance animals. Navigating the hallways northwest of the intersection and taking door D will go to the upper area of the zone, which contains the last two chests in this dungeon. Therefore, taking door D is recommended.

Occupants:

• 3-4 Monster Enemies (each 80% probability Monster, 20% Rat)
• 3 Nuisance Animals

Treasure:

• 1 Chest 03
• The following plants will always be found: 16 Cairn Bolete plants

Doors and Gates:

• There are three doors in/out of this zone
  • 1 door (at Out) leads outside
  • 2 doors (at C and D) lead to the zone The Beast's Maw Caverns

Zone 2: The Beast's Maw Caverns

The Beast's Maw Caverns

Depending on how you entered this section of the dungeon, you'll either be at the bottom of the canyon in this zone or on the area above it.

Those who took door C only end up in the canyon, where only nuisance animals can be found.

Occupants:

• 2 Monster Enemies (each 80% probability Monster, 20% Rat)
• 4-6 Nuisance Animals
