### To Reach Wing's Rest

When you start the game there will be no optional paths until you reach the Lost Grave, there you will find the Replica Sword. Equip the sword and activate the Crystal making sure to save.

Once you have the sword you can break the wood to the left of the grave, to the right of the grave is a dead end. Once the wood is broken you will be in a large broken staircase, above you is the Forbidden Archives and below you is the Yosei Forest. Neither of these are reachable at this point of the game.

Go along the narrow path until you find the hole in the wall and enter, to your left you'll find another dead end, to your right there is a long hallway with many exits. The first room to the left of the hallway has the first enemy, a Snail.

You want to continue down the hallway until you reach the sign, go left of the sign to continue or go straight forward to find an Enchanted Gate and your first Health Vial. Continue to the left of the sign until you reach the snail infested tunnels. There will be a path forward and a path to the right, if you continue going forward you will end up looping around. Head right and you'll find a straight path forward, continue down that path until you reach the Milk Snail. This enemy is harder than a regular snail, but it's an optional fight.

There is a path to the right of the Milk Snail, head down the path to enter the Shulker-infested waters. It's best to save before entering here; Shulkers are neutral towards you, but can be tricky in a fight. There will be a path to your left and a path right in front of you as you enter this area. Head to the left to proceed. The path in front of you contains a Mana Vial and your first ring Ghost Light.

Head down the path to the left of the entrance until you reach the first path to the right, head down the path to the right and you'll reach another intersection. You can either continue forwards and you'll exit the Shulker-infested pools or head to the right to find another Health Vial. Heading forwards is now a straight linear path to Demi. On your way there you'll find a chest with the Flame Spear ring. This is likely your first ring, and your first magic weapon.

Before talking to Demi, open the gate beside her. This will open a shortcut back to the crystal so you don't have to make the trek through the Shulker lakes again. After opening the gate, talk to Demi and she will offer to take you to the Wing's Rest.

### To Reach Fetid Mire

**You need to have reached Wing's Rest before you can get here.**

Once you have made it to Wing's Rest you need to buy the Enchanted Key from Sheryl. Once you have the key make it to the Enchanted Gate where you found your first Health Vial. Equip the key in your quick items and use it on the door, you can now enter the Temple of Silence.

Head through the door and down to the temple picking up the Torch on the way, this will help you see since the temple is extremely dark. Once you've entered the temple you will be met with a path forwards and to the left. Continue heading forwards, there's nothing to the left currently.

After progressing for a bit you should come across a fountain with a Health Vial in it, pick up the vial and head left heading forwards leads to a dead end. Head up the stairs and turn right, there you will find the Ritual Dagger and a path to the left.

Go down the path to the left and you'll be in a room with a bridge, the gate ahead will take you to Yosei Forest once open. Jump off the bridge and you'll find a lever, pull it to open all gates in the temple. This will prompt spawning hordes of Mummies.

Head through the gate now opened and return to the fountain on your right. Go straight forwards past the fountain and out the other side and go down the first path to the right. You'll now be in a sewer like outside area, immediately head left and continue forwards until you reach the door to the Fetid Mire.

### To Reach Yosei Forest

**You must have the doors unlocked in the Silent Temple before you can reach here.**

Once you have opened the doors in the Silent Temple, return to the bridge above the lever. The door there has opened. Continue down that path and you'll make it to a door that takes you to Yosei Forest.

As you head up out of the temple you'll come across the Steel Spear, pick it up and head across the bridge, making sure to hit the Mirage on the way there so you can enter from The Lost Grave.

### To Reach the Forbidden Archives

This area requires a large amount of Dexterity to reach (you can just barely make the jump with 23 DEX, but it is recommended to try it with 25) Though If you have enough SPD (around 30 SPD) you jump high enough with only 12 DEX. Summon Snail (Easily farmed from the nearby snails) can be used to help make the jump. Once you can jump high enough you can reach the Forbidden Archives by jumping up the broken stairs to the left of the Lost Grave. You may also access the area by utilizing the Barrier spell to create platforms.

### Hidden Area

Head to the room on the left side of the gate with the lever and go down the path to the right. There will be a room with a book that starts with "It appears the brain was removed." head to the right of the book and you'll find a Secret Door, interact with it and it will open revealing a large area with filled with various Items, including a Wooden Shield, Blood Wine, and a Crystal Shard.

Upon reaching the far end of the hidden room, there is a Mirage that allows access back to the rest of the temple.

### Blood Strike

This ring is found in the Mummy Knight Area, as soon as you originally enter it head right into the large open area. There should be a path to the right in this area which seems like a dead end but there's actually a Secret Wall there that can be opened. Behind the wall turn left and you should see the Blood Strike ring.

### Statue

Using blood strike on the twisted shell statue near the sign on hunger and consumption breaks it, and after a brief period it will begin bleeding. It is unknown if this causes anything to happen.

### VHS

On the outside gutter area of the Temple of Silence, a small stone room can be found that is seemingly empty, but upon further investigation, a Secret Door can be revealed that hides a VHS Tape.
