The Secluded Cave, entrance

The Secluded Cave1 is a small cave on the southwestern coast of Mephala's realm inhabited by spiders. You will be sent here during the Andalis' Men questline by Thadiv to recover a magic sword - this is only time you'll be able to enter, as the upper door will be locked until then (there is another door, unlocked that leads to a lower section - see below).

Zone 1: Secluded CaveEdit

This walkthrough assumes you've entered the cave through the upper entrance. You can enter the cave from the lower entrance, but you won't be able to pass through the riddle door from the bottom.

The entrance leads to a long tunnel filled with spiderweb and egg sacs. Proceed straight ahead, through a room with a grate in the floor (this will fall if you step on it), and into an old tomb. A gate will fall behind you, blocking the exit. ON the opposite side of the room, the sword sits on an altar, but beware - the line of discs on the wall behind it conceal spear traps, which trip when you pass the columns. Also, the right-hand corner (as you face the altar) is a falling floor trap.

Once you get the sword, a secret wall to your right will open up, revealing a runewrough column and a stone door. Activate the column to get a riddle; answer it correctly (the answer is "31"), and the door will open. Follow the passage until you return to the natural caves. Keep going straight, dealing the spiders as you cross them, and you'll eventually come to the lower entrance/exit.
