The First Forest is a mystical woodland filled with ancient trees and hidden secrets. Navigating its paths will lead you deeper into the story, presenting environmental puzzles and challenging encounters. This area is crucial for gathering the final components needed before confronting major plot points.
Exploring the First Forest
After completing tasks in the Grove of Repose, you will enter the First Forest. After passing a waterfall, look for a cave beneath the campsite. Inside, you'll find a chest containing valuable items. Resting at the campsite allows you to quickly return here.
Ascending the Great Tree
Climb the large tree and navigate counterclockwise around its center. Before entering a tree trunk, look for a golden sparkle in the northeast, which may contain a rare crafting ingredient like Red Kale. Climb the vine inside the tree to reach higher areas.
Sprite Bulbs and Wight Bulbs
In the upper sections of the forest, you'll encounter Sprite Bulbs. Continue fighting them until a Wight Bulb appears. These are challenging enemies with high HP and paralyzing attacks. Be prepared for a tough fight.
