Where's Paul and Ringo?

Enter the straw hut to Beatle Town, which is a gigantic tree colony filled with the insect denizens of the vast forests of Wood World. Of course, there is a problem; the flora and fauna haven't exactly been normal as of late. The ruler of the planet, King Wood, is said to be in bad shape, and the planet needs him in good health, as he has a sacred bond with the forest, and killing him would turn the planet into a wasteland. We have to do something, and soon. King Wood lives to the southeast, past the Lost Forest. But none may enter the Lost Forest without permission of the Lord of the Lost Forest, so we need to visit him first. Confused yet?

Our first goal is to speak with the Lord of the Lost Forest, and he lives beyond a cave to the east. That's our destination. But first, we prepare. This town has a lot of cool things to pick up and purchase, so let's start with the Item Shop. Purchase a CRUST ARMOR, CRUST HELMET and a METEOR PUNCH, then stock up on all of the consumables as usual. Next, visit the two buildings northwest of the Item Shop to find a Beetle Store (rent a beetle for outside if you want, though it doesn't seem to have any apparent use) and the Red and Blue Ninja Gems' place. Talk to them to recieve the MAGIDOOR spell, and then finally head to the establishment in the northwestern part of the town. Speak to Chief Arrowhead there to obtain Magidoor's brother spell, MAGIPORT. Also, note the interesting screen shot to the right; what Arrowhead doesn't know is that we aren't actually searching for treasure. What a dumbass. 8) Once you're ready, leave town and head directly east. See that cave entrance? That's the Eastern Cave that leads to the Lord of the Lost Forest. Enter.
