Previously, the party explored Level 6 of the Old Cave. Now, it is time for them to head west to Arus Cave and check the condition of the bridge for the architect Piron at Odel Castle. Arus Cave is a fairly complicated place with several entrances. If you're looking at StarFighters76's map, there are a few ladders that are not shown, but it is very helpful overall.

First, the party heads into the northeast entrance of Arus Cave (time 3:54). After going down a couple of ladders, they find a chest containing a Half Mail (time 4:07). Drat, and the party just got one for Aguro.

Back on the upper plateau, a nearby chest contains a Glass Robe (time 6:19).

Down a ladder to the west, there is a chest containing a Stone Cure (time 6:31).

To the south of there is a ladder leading down. There are two chests along the southwest side of the plateau reached from the warp in Odel's tunnels (time 7:33). The chests contain a Miracle and a Quilted Silk.

Back up the ladder, the party goes around to the east and south again. It eventually leads to a ladder that goes to the plateau around the southern section of the floor. To the west, the path turns north.

The first chest that the party reaches in this section contains a Glass Cap (time 11:13).

At the northwest end of this section, there are chests containing Wind Shoes and an Iron Helm (time 11:33). There is also a pretty good view of the bridge, but it cannot be reached from here.

Afterwards, the party takes the southeast stairway out of the cave (time 15:00). This leads out to Arus Cave's east entrance.

The party then goes into Arus Cave's south entrance (time 15:45). This just leads to that plateau that can be reached from the castle, though, so there is little point to using it.

The party returns to Odel to rest up. Afterwards, Aguro reaches Level 24 (time 17:43).

Then, after taking a long roundabout route, they find the southwest entrance to Arus Cave (time 21:20). They find themselves on a southwest plateau overlooking the bridge.

While they are here, Lufia reaches Level 26 (time 22:54).

By the northeast side of the plateau, there are two treasure chests (time 23:19). They contain Dragon Egg #4 and an Ex Potion.

Then, they go around the west side of the plateau and check out the bridge (time 24:31). After an incisive deduction about the state of the bridge, they must now go back to talk to Piron.

On the way out, Max reaches Level 27 (time 25:28).

When they are almost back to Odel, Jerin reaches Level 25 (time 29:09).

Back in Odel Castle, the report the state of the bridge to Piron (time 30:59). He asks them to come to the cave later to help out his team. Will do.

In the next episode, the party will help Piron and his crew in the cave.

Thanks for watching!
