Fort of Undying Shadows -Part 1-


Upon starting the area, you’ll find a lot of Specters ahead of you on top of poisonous water. You can defeat them if you want or go straight ahead to the right side and pass by the lookout tower. There will be another group of specters there. You need to pass through the gate to the right.

There’s a pit that will lead you down below, you can harvest some resources from the bush before jumping in. There will be a couple of barrels there as well as a box that contains 2 pcs. of Medicinal Sake. There will also be more barrels on the left side just across.

Boxes can be found on the upcoming levels below

If you jump to the level below, you’ll find a box on the left side that contains a Demonic Braid, while to the very right side is a mining spot. Once you have the items, you can continue and jump to the level below.

Be careful since there’s a demon rabbit controlling a cannon on the left. Kill it first since it can be quite a nuisance, you can then defeat the remaining demons around. Once you go to the left side, you’ll find a wall of noxious gas. Heading to the very left side of this area will lead you to a platform above that has a box containing 2 pcs. of Medicinal Base. In order to continue, you’ll have to jump to the area below.
