Reeve is a pretty standard town in Dragon Quest III, mostly notable for the new gear you can pick up and a couple of locked doors you can't open yet. There are also rumors of a cave nearby that leads to the Dreamer's Tower, but we'll get to that later. For now, let's see what treasures we can snag around town!

Walkthrough

1
From the southeast entrance of Reeve, head northwest a bit until you're in a wheat field. Search the top-left corner of this field to find a Medicinal Herb.
2
Just east of the wheat field, you'll see a giant rock. Push it out of the way and search the 'X' that appears to get 210 gold.
3
Next, enter the church located northeast of the rock. Inside, search the pot on the right side of the room to find a Holy Water. After grabbing it, exit the church.
4
From the church, follow the path west and then north. When you get the chance, head northeast towards a house that has a Thief Key door. Outside this house, search the pot to find a Seed of Stamina.
5
Head back west until you reach a crossroads. Search the barrel near the crossroads to find 33 gold.
6
Now, go south to find the Inn and the Equipment Shop. Right outside the Equipment Shop, there's a barrel containing an Oaken Club.
7
Go inside the Inn, which is to the west. The door is locked by a Thief Key, so you can't go in that way yet. Head upstairs and check the pot on the north side of the room to get an Antidotal Herb. Once you have it, leave the Inn.
8
From the Inn, travel all the way north to find another building. In the northeast corner of this building, search the bookshelf to find your first Personality Book, the Diary of a Hardman. This book teaches the Meathead personality. You can chat with the person inside if you want to hear more about the Dreamer's Tower, otherwise, it's time to move on.

Tips

Keep an eye out for those locked Thief Key doors; you'll be able to open them later in the game to access more areas and items.
The shops in Reeve offer some decent upgrades, especially the Chain Sickle and Tortoise Shell if you've got the gold.
Once you're ready, exit Reeve and head towards the forest clearing just southeast of town to reach the Promontory Passage.
