Tips

Sidequests are important for rewards and recruiting citizens. Activate the sidequest in the menu (Quests > Sidequests) to get an objective marker.
Grotty Grotto is located northeast of Auntie Martha’s Cottage, then directly east.
Enemies in the Grotty Grotto Maze are around your current level. The boss is a familiar foe.
Balance using key orbs to lower the Danger Level versus opening blue chests.
Special NPCs in mazes may offer services for a price (orbs, Danger Level reduction, items).
After completing the sidequest, new sidequests will become available in locations like Goldpaw and the Sky Pirates’ Base, indicated by exclamation points on the map.
