Zone 1: Redwater SloughEdit

 
Redwater Slough

Your main target in Redwater Slough is Hindaril who resides in the northern part of the cave. However, the door at D (Very Hard lock) must be unlocked to enter his domain. The key to this door, Redwater Slough Key, is located in the south section of the cave, in the chest at location k.

When entering from door Out, you will face a large two-leveled room. The pit does not contain anything of interest beyond a zombie corpse shackled to a stone, so make your way to the other side and loot the two minor chests nearby. From here make a running jump onto the first coffin clamped to the northern wall and claim the Shortsword of Numbing (C) inside it. Take the tunnel leading east and turn south at the intersection, battling past two undead opponents. Dive into the water, avoid the slaughterfish swimming nearby and surface in the southeastern room, where there may be a vampire waiting for you. Take the key from the chest at k and explore the southernmost room, which hosts two minor loot chests guarded by a vampire.

Return to door D and quickly take the northern tunnel to access a small room with a vampire and a minor loot chest. Take the eastern tunnel next, and make your way past three side rooms, each containing an enemy. The second also hosts two coffins while the third hosts two minor loot chests. In the final room to the north you will encounter the vampire Hindaril (Q), a tough opponent. When you kill him you will find Ashes of Hindaril instead of regular Vampire Dust on his corpse. Claim the contents of the boss-leveled coffin at B before heading back out.
