There
are a lot of spiders on this level...Giant Intelligent Friendly Talking
Spiders... I've always had sympathy for the people that were
driven insane by these spiders.
Head
over to the west right away and you'll see a cracked section of
wall. Instead of using Move Mountains, just go around the corner
and through the door. There's an empty chest in this room, and
right next to the chest is a secret passage. At the end of the
secret passage are some chests, a couple of which contain some halfway
decent items.
Now
leave this room and go around the walls of the cave in a clockwise
direction. The first passage to the west leads to a pool with
some Healing Herbs on the ground.
Ignore
the room with the stairs leading up to the door for now and head over
to the northwest corner. This is the spider's larder. Don't
free the roach or kill it, as it might upset the spiders.
Continue
heading in a clockwise direction and the next passage leading off to
the north contains first a Guard Spider, who you can talk your way past
without any problems, and then, in the room at the end, you'll find the
Chief Spider. He'll tell you about the Friendly Roaches, but
before he tells you where you can find them he wants you to do him a
favor. Once you've helped out the spiders near the rocks come
back and he'll tell you where to find the Friendly Roaches.
Continuing to head clockwise you'll notice some coins lying on the ground, which you might as well pick up.
The
next passage to the north is blocked by some webs, and leads to a bunch
of roaches that are being held for snacking purposes. You can
kill them without upsetting the spiders.
The
next passage off the main room, which leads to the west is just a small
side room with two spiders in it. Feel free to talk to them, if
you're so inclined.
The
last passage leading off the main chamber is blocked by a pile of
rubble, which you need Move Mountains Lv.3 to get past.
Fortunately for you, there's a secret passage. Go over to near
the entrance and start checking the southern wall. This secret
passage takes you into a room with a lot of bars of iron and some
spirits. Once you've dealt with the spirits head over to the
northeastern corner of the room to find an Item Augmentation Platform.
Now
go check out that room that has the stairs leading up to the
door. When you first enter a Demon and four Imps will
appear. The only things in here are a plain Gold Ring and an Iron
Dagger, but you can come back once you've gotten the Ritual of
Sanctification ability and use it on this altar. Performing the
Ritual here will cause the appearance of a Haakai who will drop the
Obsidian Spear when you kill him.
Now
that you're done here, it's time to head up to the home of the Giant
Intelligent Friendly Talking Roaches. They're even more creepy
than the spiders.
