Verdant Hollow & Temple Puwema

Route through Verdant Hollow & Temple Puwema

1. Drop down the well near the Deimpo Mausoleum entrance on the Isle to land in Verdant Hollow; the yellow chest on the small island at the bottom needs Umbada's missing-cargo key. Go on, drop through the pit ahead, and in the brazier cave take the left fork all the way up to the Cliff Edge monument.
2. The room beside Cliff Edge has the elevator up into the Forgotten Dungeon. Past it, the pitch-dark cave with a stone gate leads to the Jasper Tear Charm chest; leaving that cave and going on, a building wall carries the orange seal of the House Abraon Data Module (Orange Ochre Seal Breaker from Ossi).
3. Walk from Cliff Edge toward the broken bridge and jump from its front right to reach the Wing Altar - Verdant Hollow. Vespula Ungulacrita waits at the cliff by this collapsed bridge.
4. Cross to the far half of the broken bridge (chest) and follow the main route to the Lakeside monument beside the elevator. The Ghost Coelacanth swims in the big glowing blue lake; across the lake the Golden Crab sits in a crowd of crabs.
5. From the Wing Altar - Deimpo Mausoleum, the hidden door by the torches on the giant spiral stairwell's first flight opens onto Verdant Hollow. Dash to the far platform for The Green Goddess beside the Occultist Josami Warden, then drop into the lower floor of the hanging building for the Rusted Greataxe.
6. Upper Verdant Hollow: from the Crumbling Fortress monument at the end of the Rotting Cavern main route, take the right fork uphill and turn left past the big tree; the temple is on the right. Sipeha's Lens is in the chest under its broken central sculpture, and Puwema's Blessing is in the chest left of the temple door.
7. Set Sipeha's Lens in the Mask of Second Sight and break the seals on all eight Sipeha statues, seated figures holding a disc spread over the island; they do not react before you have this lens. With all eight broken, the door ringed by eight green torches opens.
8. The door leads into the topmost temple above the Lakeside monument. Dragon Lord Usunha (2,900 Life, 115 ATK) and Malachite Dragon Wujomiod (3,500 Life, 150 ATK, breathes blue fire) fight together with no verified weakness: use the arena to split them, keep the more aggressive one in view and save healing for when both press at once (Wake From Dreams).
9. At the Altar of Purification behind them, forge the True Holy Sword Akunra from Soul Bound Endu at level 10 and Unok's Remains from King Gius; also carry all five Wind Gems and the Storm Gem (Blade Bathed in Holy Light). Before leaving, the hidden door in the stone wall under the temple bridge holds the Jade Puwema statuette, and a Silver Skull sits on the temple roof.

Come back later for

• Bone Blade and Bipoum the Raging: after the Herald of Okbujo falls in the Record of Sin, vines grow beside the big bridge near Cliff Edge; the Bone Blade is halfway up, Bipoum on the platform opposite the top.
• Stone Duck Smasher in the yellow chest at the bottom of the well, opened with Umbada's missing-cargo key.
• Black Steel Greataxe from Umbada's shop once the Rusted Greataxe has evolved into Okbujo's Silver Garden; the Holy Sword Unok Replica joins the shop after you forge Akunra.
• Stygian Barnacle on top of the Tower of Sin ruin, reached by dropping from the bridge between the Tower of Knowledge and the Mausoleum.
