''The [[:Category: Town Of Solace |town of Solace]] is built on the shores of the Great Lake, Crystalmir. Rumors say that there is a [[Belt Of Crystalmir |belt made of pure ice crystals]] from the heart of the lake, frozen in winter. It is said to be guarded by living [[Golems |golems]] of pure crystal somewhere near the lake shore.''

'''Level Range:''' 5-15

'''Builder:''' Strahd

== Directions ==

Walking route from [[Nom |Nom]]: n, 8w, 11s.

Walking route from [[Sol |Sol]]: 3e, 11s.

[[Portal |Portaling]] point(s) suggested: [[Goldmoon |Goldmoon]].

== Connections ==

This area is south of the [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Town of Solace]].

This is a fairly large and diverse area, which also connects quite a few areas south of [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]]. You can reach the [[:Category: Highways/Great Wall |White Stone Road]], [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]], [[:Category: Grunka's Kombat Skool |Grunka's]], [[:Category: Fewmaster's Folly |Fewmaster's Folly]], [[:Category: Paradise Point |Paradise Point]], [[:Category: Rivers Of Avatar |Rivers]], and [[:Category: Descent To Hell |Descent to Hell]] by travelling through this area.

== Navigation ==

The west and south sections of this area feature the wandering hobgoblins, and [[Fewmaster Toede]]. [[Goldmoon]] sits at the connecting rooms for Crystalmir Lake and [[:Category: Highways/Great Wall |White Stone Road]]. The lake is at the center of this area, and adventurers can go underwater to get exp or fight the [[Turtle Dragon]]. North of the lake are
farmlands, where one can find many farmers if their gear is desired. Just north of the lake is a strip of land under the waterfalls, where one can find the mobs one needs to battle for the [[Belt Of Crystalmir]]. See the Adventuring section and the map for more details.

== Adventuring ==

The general difficulty of the most common [[:Category: Mobs |mobs]], in increasing order, is:
* Hobgoblin Flunky
* Rats
* Farmers
* Fish
* Barraccudas

This of course doesn't include "special" mobs like [[Goldmoon |Goldmoon]], Riverwind, or the Farmer.

As a rule, the [[:Category: Mobs |mobs]] [[Assistive Mobs |will assist]] here, so be careful fighting in large [[:Category: Rooms |rooms]]. There are also [[Hide Flag |hidden]] [[Wandering Mobs |wandering mobs]] akin to the field rats in [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]], so even though a [[:Category: Rooms |room]] may appear safe, be wary of other [[Hide Flag |hidden]] [[:Category: Mobs |mobs]] [[Assistive Mobs |assisting]].

You may come across Fewmaster Toede in your travels through the area. He is a smallish [[Aggressive Mobs |aggy]] who has [[Black Aura |sanc]] and a wield. He's not terribly difficult, but he could catch a lower [[Hit Points |hp]] [[:Category: Characters |character]] off guard.

Directly south and east of the Solace entrance you will find [[Goldmoon |Goldmoon]]. She will act as a [[:Category: Healers |healer]] and cast spells on you if you are below level 10, but her room is _not_ [[Safe Rooms |nofight]], so you are not safe from Toede here. Up and north will take you to the White Stone Road ([[:Category: Highways/Great Wall |Highways/Great Wall]]) and the trail around [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]].

The area south of [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]] has various wandering [[Hobgoblins |hobgoblins]], farmers, and rats eating grain, none of which are terribly difficult. 2swn from the [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]] entrance will land you in [[:Category: Grunka's Kombat Skool |Grunka's]].

The lake itself is located 3w from the [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]] entrance. Going d will take you underwater into a looping maze filled with alternating rooms of fish and barraccuda. Both [[Assistive Mobs |will assist]], and the barraccuda [[Aggressive Mobs |will aggy]], so be _very_ careful if you choose to go down here unspelled.

wnw from the [[:Category: Town Of Solace |Solace]] entrance will take you to the [[:Category: Rivers Of Avatar |Rivers]] area that holds the mini-quest for the [[Belt Of Crystalmir |belt of Crystalmir]]. Continuing to walk west will bring you back to the other side of the shore.

All west, all north, and west will bring you to the smoldering campsite. From here you can go west to [[:Category: Fewmaster's Folly |Fewmaster's Folly]], south to [[:Category: Paradise Point |Paradise Point]], or you can pull the [[Bright Silver Bracer |bracer]] out of the fire for a +mv +hp +str anti-good wrist item. Don't wander too far south into [[:Category: Paradise Point |Paradise Point]] if you're tiny though :)

West, all north, and all west will take you on a path to [[:Category: Descent To Hell |Descent to Hell]]. The farm dogs [[Aggressive Mobs |will aggy]], and have the needed key to get inside the house, but are not terribly difficult. The pooh bear inside is of moderate difficulty. South through the book in the child's room will bring you into [[:Category: Descent To Hell |descent]]: the path is one-way, so don't walk through unless you actually intend to do some killing there.

Finally, if you wander in the southwestern corner of the map, keep an eye out for the Farmer and the room full of robed figures - the former has a wield and is a bit tougher, the latter are bigger mobs that (you guessed it) [[Assistive Mobs |will assist]] if you start attacking.
