'''Level Range:''' 51-51

'''Builder:''' Kreathyr

== Directions ==

Walking route from [[Eragora_default_recall|Eragora default recall]]: 2s, d, 2s, e, 3s, e, s.

[[Portal |Portaling]] point(s) suggested: [[Akrikto]].

== Connections ==
* [[:Category:Eragora Walkways|Eragora Walkways]]

== Navigation ==

The area consists of two distinct parts - the upper layer with the three-room house and a large field (5x4) to the west, and the lower part with the network of caves (about 5x3 + a 6-room addition). Navigating both is mostly trivial.

Entire area is uncursed so feel free to recall anytime.

== Adventuring ==

The area's upper layer is an Eragoran response to the [[:Category:Tortuga Cay|Tortuga Cay]]. The cows are big, juicy and nonaggie and are too slow to flee properly. Two s3 disintegrates will kill them for over 200xp per cow. The bulls are a bit more hp-heavy but hit just as weak, and three s3 disintegrates will kill them for over 300xp each.

Only the tree may prove to be an issue to smaller casters.

As for the lower areas, they are a bit more dangerous due to multiple aggie mobs per room, that are known to hit harder, so duo these if you lack the hps to solo.

Area is not really big enough to sustain a prolonged run of a brute-oriented group, and is neither as demanding to require one.

Unlike some other Eragoran areas, this area will not auto-CR you. Due to no rooms being cursed, mercy and gurney will work just fine.

-To get to the lower levels, you need to push table, which although is a large and massive piece of furniture described in the room Akrikto's farmhouse's description, it is a rogue lore-only lever that needs to be pushed by a sneaky character. Hopefully this will get fixed in the future.
