7. High Hedge Sector

  • Kivan, a good companion, is waiting to join your party just north of the main building in this sector.

  • A giant spider and a group of huge spiders are hovering near the shack in the western portion of this sector. While spiders are immune to web spells, you can keep away from their poison by entangling them. There are also some ghasts and random monsters nearby. Inside the shack is a chest with an aquamarine gem.
