Altar Cave B3

Terrain Ability Earthquake

The game begins on this Map with a fight against a group of Goblins. There isn't much to do here but walk north, collecting the Treasures along the way. You'll have to touch a rock at the end of the path to open a secret passage forward—get used to looking for switches like this. Don't forget to equip your new Leather Shields when you find them.

Though you will only encounter Goblins here at the start of the game, if you return later you will find slightly tougher enemies.
