At first a lot of strange people bother the Knight and start following the party.It turns out they follow a cult and want to arrest the Knight for heresy. The area of battle is fenced by a stone wall, before entering look under the cactus plants west of it to receive a  Star Piece.

## The Jail

The Knight stands no chance against the cultists and they puts the Knight into jail. There the Knight meets Marvin the first time and the Champion Sword reacts to him. . Marvin asks if the Knight is ready to do anything to escape before he starts beating them up. This catches the attention of the guard who will open the cell door to stop the fight. Use the switches to open the cells to get a Mysterious Slate, a  Star Piece and a quest about a prisoner, who wants to escape with the Knight.

### Stone puzzle

Further left, next to a guard there is small puzzle with movable stones.

* First move the detatched bottom stone so it doesn't align with the big stone anymore.
* Then move the topmost small block to its right through both of the  Purple Tires but not on top of the key.
* Now the big stone can be moved downwards to access the key.
* Move the small block on top of the  Purple Tire after getting the key to get the last Purple Tire.

Use the key to free the prisoner in the bottom left cell and access the switch. The switch light a fire that burns away the sign that was blocking another switch that gives access to a brazier. Carry it back to the right to light the two lanterns which will open up the path forward.

Before lighting the two lanterns in the next room, trade the banana you found in your cell with the prisoner. In return he will give his treasure, which turns out to be only a rock. Now light the two lanterns and wait for the other two to be lit. In the last room there are 4 more lanterns which opens the exit gate and gives access to Prison Key 1.

Continuing outside there is a lazy guy lying on a cliff on the left. Speak to him to gain a follower Lazy Prisoner on FaceBreak. Next area is filled with guards that have vision cones that need to be avoided. If seen, the area will have to be restarted from the beginning. Do not miss out the prisoner at the bottom of the middle part of this area. When helped, he will grant access to a  Star Piece. Additionally a Mysterious Slate and 2  Purple Tires is at the very left bottom corner of this area. There are 2 more  Purple Tires at the top middle part of the map.

Next is a where you will need the Prisoner Key 1 to gain access to. The room is full of prisoners and there is a bonfire at the middle of it. Marvin suggests the Knight a break for a little while as he tells his story. Following up there is another room with prisoners working and more guards. Directly ahead is another prisoner who is asking for help to escape. Moving right, there is a prisoner mot working by the stones. He will trade a rock against a shovel.

### Conduit Puzzle

There is a key inside a cell which will need both of the conduits to be electrified for the cell to open.

* First move the power coil upwards and connect the top two coils with each other. The top room opens and allows you to take another power coil.
* Move one of the coils completely downwards to open the room there the same way and get another power coil.
* Move the coil from the top downwards and fill the three gaps from the bottom each with a power coil to get access to the key. One coil will not be lit but it is enough to open the cell.

With the key, gain access to the left part of this area. Several guards start chucking bombs from a platform but dodge the bombs and ignore them, the purpose is to break the stones and use the bombs to clear the stones. On your way you will find the third Mysterious Slate and a  Star Piece, before leaving via the jumping pad.

After the jump pad, Marvin points out to the exit which is behind a big group of guards. He reflects "if only you had 5 prisoners with you". At this point the party should have 4 prisoners. The last prisoner can be found to the right prisoner in a cell. Going past the cell, is the monument for Mysterious Slates that can be traded for the Enterpriser Dolf costume. On top the prisoner in that chamber will trade your shovel for a Desert Passport. At the very left part of this area and hand the Desert Passport to the guard. He will hand over his uniform which allows you to finally escape prison and collect the last  Star Piece. Pretending to be a guard escorting prisoners allows access through and out of the jail. Marvin points out that the Desert Elf Town is nearby.
