Goblin Territory

Goblin Territory.

The Goblin Territory can be accessed from the Sovereign Road. Heroes who venture into the Goblin Territory must search for the exit or find an exit escort in order to leave, except for Rangers, who may leave the area at any time. The Goblin Territory contains mid-low level encounters, items, and is involved in a few quests. The difficulty of the area is only slightly more challenging than the Ratman Kingdom, but the exit path is not always available, so wise heroes bring sufficient healing aids with them on any foray into this uncharted land.

Description

Routes
