Toarch Cave

"'A cool cave, dripping with water. Watch out for snakes and bats.'"

About
Toarch Cave can be discovered after the reveal of Firstbridge by speaking to the DILF in Firsttown. By "crossing over Firstbridge from Firsttown" The Adventurer can access it from the World Map by walking over one of the tiles depicting a mountain.

Toarch Cave is a dark and slimy dungeon filled with large dripping stalactites overhead, and stalagmites jutting out of the ground below. It is flooded in many areas with water deep enough for The Adventurer to swim in, and can be illuminated by torches along the way simply by walking past them. Similar to Firstbridge, there is a hidden room containing three chests behind a waterfall. The cave connects the Firsttown area of the World Map to the Totory area, and can be entered from either side, with Sukumizu waiting at the entrance.

There is a dead-end room which will later become a mini-boss area. Part way through the cave, The Adventurer will express that they are "getting a bad vibe from deep down in the cave". This foreshadows the Sukubus enemy found in a hidden room behind the wall, which is past the waterfall area. Upon her defeat, she will drop a Vampire Sword and three chests will appear.

Since it is part of the Firsttown Area, Toarch Cave is likely the first dungeon where The Adventurer will encounter tough monsters. It is recommended by Sukumizu to train in other dungeons until The Adventurer is strong enough to proceed. The Bampires and Sukubus present within this dungeon are capable of inflicting The Adventurer with an Infatuation status which can slow progression. The Lamia and Rockit enemies also frequently use Binding Moves, which can stop The Adventurer from moving altogether. Should you become accidentally ignited by one of the torches, it is possible to quickly extinguish the flames by jumping into a nearby body of water. Exiting Toarch Cave to the World Map will lead to the immediate discovery of Totory Dunes.
