East Sarutabaruta

East Sarutabaruta is an area in Final Fantasy XI. This grassland is home to the famous mandragora monsters and serves as a popular area for new adventurers to level up.
== Location ==
Part of the Sarutabaruta region, East Sarutabaruta consists of the savanna lying immediately outside Windurst Woods. The grassland gives way to Tahrongi Canyon in the northeast. Like West Sarutabaruta, numerous ancient towers here lead to the Horutoto ruins.
Lake Tepokalipuka settles into a corner on the west side of East Sarutabaruta and holds rare fish for the intrepid fisherman willing to seek them out. Tepokalipuka means "a ladle with a hole" in the old language.
Further north, two rivers flow through the area. Nompipi is the southern river of the two that serves as a sort of natural barrier; beyond its waters lie tougher monsters than can be found in the region closest to Windurst. During the Sunbreeze Festival, adventurers can flock here to try their hand at Goldfish Scooping.
Zanbibi is the northern river of the two running through East Sarutabaruta. The river provides good fish, and additionally serves as a reminder of the ridge that runs along the river's north side; the player must follow the flow back to the mouth of both rivers in order to ascend the ridge from East Sarutabaruta.
The waters of the Pamtam Straits run to the south of Sarutabaruta and Windurst, and a small cliff face on East Sarutabaruta's south end overlooks its waters. This area makes a nice, secluded spot for some peaceful sea fishing.
== Story ==
In the A Shantotto Ascension mission Burgeoning Dread, the player is drafted into the Shantotto Empire upon entering East or West Sarutabaruta from Windurst.

A stone monument sits near the base of the Zanbibi river, inscribed by Enid Ironheart, the daughter of Gwynham Ironheart. The player must make a copy of the monument's inscription using clay and take it to Abelard in Selbina, along with the rest of the inscriptions of the monuments across the land, in order to obtain a map of the Crawlers' Nest. The monument reads:
