The main path here is very simple, as the stairs to continue on are directly to the south. However, if you go past them, you'll come across a hidden path to the east that leads to three pieces of Dragon Armor. Don't miss them.
The side area contains a floating sword, the Murasame. The White D. will attack if you try to claim it. This boss absorbs all three primary Elements and hits very hard. It counterattacks physical attacks with Slow, and summons with GaiaRage (so cast Float beforehand). Artemis Arrows (stolen from Karies) are extremely effective, as is Baham (who is, let's face it, effective against everything).
