    Upon entering the Dark Valley, notice the low path by the water. Avoid this path to prevent an ambush by a giant frog that can instantly kill your men.

    On the plateau, head south and find some bushes. Cut them down to reveal a crack in the ground. Dig in the resulting hole to find a gold bar.

    Return to the castle to cash in your spoils. Big seaweeds are valuable souvenirs, worth 260,000 Bol each. Including other spoils, you can earn over 3,000,000 Bol from this run.
  4. 4
    Get some rest and return to the plateau the next day.

    From the stairs, head north to find many bushes. Cut them down to obtain Art Piece 14, titled "Mush and Room" by Yoyo.

    Turn around and go the opposite direction. Walk past the blue tree with an art piece on top and bear right.

    You will see a hole on a lower ledge. Send some men to dig it open to get Art Piece 86, "King" by Ekakiman.

    You will be forced to drop back down to the hot spring by the Former Onii Grounds.

    Move left at the fork to overlook the starting area of the Sunflower Plains.

    Turn back and move along the cliff overlooking the water.
  13. 13
    At the end of a narrow path below, you will find Wonder Spot #10: Haunted Zone 1.
  14. 14
    Move back along this narrow path until you reach the stairs again.
