The western part of the floor includes the path to 1F, and is very straightforward. The path to the Black Mask is similarly simple, but longer. There is Garlic in a chest south of the entrance, and the stairs down can be found by looping around to the north. There are two other areas that are accessible from B4, one with a Phoenix Down guarded by Undead, and the other leading right back down to that floor.
