SweetSpearGirl was level 7 by the time she found the Stony Field waypoint (the Cairn Stones and Rakanishu were just inside the Stony Field, and a monster shrine generated a Ghostly Skeleton further in; "more like a Ghostly Stupidon," Euyfura muttered).

The intrepid duo zigzagged back and forth across the area, stabbing and shooting Moon Clan and skeletons and packs of goblins and their mad Shamen. SweetSpearGirl discovered a mouldy book on a pedestal - all that remained of a long-crumbled building - but couldn't be bothered to read through it since the entrance to the Underground Passage was near.

The Passage consisted of long stretches of dark tunnel filled with goblins, Skeleton Archers and Vile Hunters. The goblins in particular were troublesome; extra fast boss Devil Jade and cold-enchanted Bile Wing the Quick barred their way through. The Rogue levelled up twice and SweetSpearGirl once; then the way up to the Dark Wood loomed ahead.

"Onward and upward?" Euyfura said with a wink.

"You betcha!" SweetSpearGirl responded, charging up.

The Dark Wood was much of a muchness with the previous areas, except that both trees and bad guys were thicker on the ground. Mowing down anything that attacked, yelled 'Rakinishu!' or pretty much did anything of anything, the battling Amazon and fearless Rogue ran through and cleared the area. Treewood Headfist and his boys proved a slight distraction but Euyfura stuck them full of arrows and SweetSpearGirl ran them through. After that, the waypoint was just a swift run away and they blinked back to town with the bark scroll thingy-wossname.

As SweetSpearGirl remarked, "Been there, done that!"

Back to the Stony Field. Hunt down the Stones. Tap each one in turn. Glow... lightning... step through the red portal.

Cut down the skeleton archer and Carver Shaman bosses. Stab Griswold... rescue Cain.

Get the crappy +15 to attack rating+1 to light radius ring.

"Bah," SweetSpearGirl sniggered. "My rings are better anyway."

"Not by much," Euyfura muttered.

"I heard that!" the Amazon retorted, selling the ring to Charsi and stripping her armour off. "But I need sleep, so I won't hit you. Yet."

Euyfura stuck her tongue out at SweetSpearGirl, slumping down by the stash. The duo slept.
