Zone 1: Wind Cave

Wind Cave

Being largely straightforward with few winding corridors, this area is easy to get through. There are two large rooms. The second one has two passages: a large one from the main level, and a small side-corridor from the second. Since the two corridors are parallel and lead to door C, it does not matter which one you choose.

Occupants:

• 9 Monster Enemies (each 80% probability Monster, 20% Rat)

Treasure:

• 2 Chests 01 (1 locked)
• 1 Chest 03
• 1 Chest 04
• The following plants will always be found: 2 Cairn Bolete plants

Doors and Gates:

• There are two doors in/out of this zone
  • 1 door (at Out) leads outside
  • 1 door (at C) leads to the zone Wind Cave Great Pit

Zone 2: Wind Cave Great Pit

Wind Cave Great Pit

Here, you come out in a "valley" between two parts of the upper level. The small passage at the end of this valley climbs up and around to the higher level. There is one bridge crossing the valley near over the entrance. The door at D in the northernmost corner of this area leads to the last zone.

Occupants:

• 9 Monster Enemies (each 80% probability Monster, 20% Rat)

Treasure:

Zone 3: Wind Cave Black Rat Ramble

Wind Cave Black Rat Ramble

This zone can be somewhat confusing. The small passage you first entered from splits into two just a few feet later. The forward path leads to the lower level "canyons" that leave you open target for the monsters upstairs. The passage that leads to the left is the one that leads to the upper level. You can cross the canyons either by a bridge or log.
