  5. 5
    Continue south through the passage to find more Fireweed and St. John’s Wort.
  6. 6
    Proceed until you reach a larger chamber with the Key of Agility. Loot it by jumping over the rocks while in mid-air.
  7. 7
    Continue northwest through the passage. Move the large stone blocking the way to progress to the next chamber.
  8. 8
    In the next chamber, shoot the links holding the hanging nets to release rubble. Then, shoot the link to the ladder leading to the central platform.

    Jump from the ropes to loot the Key of Dexterity from the central platform.
  10. 10
    Go through the southeast passage. Climb the large rock statue in this chamber.

    At the top, proceed through the northeast passage. You will find more Fireweed and a rope leading to a central stone pillar with a key above it.
  12. 12
    On the eastern side of the chamber, find two more St. John’s Wort.
  13. 13
    Climb the rope to the south to reach the rock in the center of the chamber, then climb the rock to reach the rope above.
  14. 14
    From the rope above, jump to the stone pillar below to grab the Key of Balance.
  15. 15
    Return to the main chamber through the south passage, to the large stone statue in the center. Jump to the base of the statue.

    Use all four keys to open the gates at the base of the statue. The second gate contains a treasure chest with a Nickel Ingot, and more Fireweed and St. John’s Wort.
  17. 17
    Continue north through the cave and climb higher to find another movable stone. Climb on top of this stone to jump to the stone on the other side.
  18. 18
    Move the stone you are now on northeast, then southeast, to use it to jump to the next stone.
  19. 19
    Repeat the process with the next stone, moving it southeast and then northeast, to reach the other side.
  20. 20
    Climb the remaining steps to find the Key of Wit and the Mysterious Chessboard Tablet.
