Darkwood Entrance
"""""""""""""""""
Back tracking to the very start of Darkwood, entering it from Greatwood
Caves.  Go down the path and on your left are some barrels, on your
right is a chest.

	Inside the barrels you will find:
	  1 x Red Meat
	  1 x Will Potion
	Inside the chest you will find:
	  1 x Resurrection Phial



Darkwood Marshes

Before you get to the explosive spores, on the left side is a chest.

(DD03)  Demon Door #3  -  Darkwood Marshes
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
When you enter the Darkwood Marshes, you can find this door on the left.

 	"Beware, traveller - I block the way to all but the most combat-
	 hardened."
	"If you request, my Guardians will test your mettle in combat."
	"Meet their challenge, and the reward I hide is yours."
 
This can be either easy, very easy, or suck balls gay.  If you are
doing this during the quest (as I am) you will not only have to
fight a small army of Hobbes, but you will still have to protect the
traders you are escorting, who believe they can fight these Hobbes.

So, if you don't want to do it yet, come back later and do it then.

Now, when you say yes, there will be 5 waves of Hobbes, each wave is
harder than the last.

Because you are able to have the "Wellow's Pickhammer" by this point
and because it is about the strongest weapon you can get for now, I
will use that and record the waves in difficulty by how many hits it
takes to kill each Hobbe in each wave.

  Wave 1 - 4 Hobbes, 1 hit each.
  Wave 2 - 4 Hobbes, 1 hit each.
  Wave 3 - 4 Hobbes, 4 hits each.
  Wave 4 - 4 Hobbes, 2 hits each.
  Wave 5 - 4 Hobbes, 6 hits each.
 
Inside you find a chest.

	Inside the chest you will find:
	  1 x Dark Will User's Outift (set)

little island you will find a chest.

	  250 gold



(SK07)  Silver Key #7  -  Darkwood Lake
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
At Darkwood Lake, go to the exit leading to Darkwood Camp, on the "Trader
Escort" quest, they commented on a stone.  It is the large, glowing stone
standing up to the right of the exit.  If you shoot the little hole at
the top with you bow your will get the Silver Key.

	  1 x Steel Axe

	Inside the barrels you will find:
	  1 x Will Potion
	  1 x Dark Vortex Tattoo



Black Jack
""""""""""
Okay... Black Jack while technically is a mini-game, it has no reward
other than money, thus I do not consider it to be a quest.  It is in fact
pointless.  If you wish to play it, go for it, I will not be writting any
other facts about it unless there turns out to be a secret here.

	"I want beeft!  Blubbery!  Plump!  Porcine!"
	"Stop being a slave to public perception, and treat yourself."
	"Pies, meat, beer, anything, but lots of it!"
	"Eat yourself large, and you'll be welcome here!"
 
If that wasn't clear enough on what you have to do, then you have some
serrious handicap issues.

Go and buy like 100-150 bucks worth of food (or 25-30 pieces of food)
and come back to the door.

Make sure your health is full and eat away.

I personally just bougt what I could from the trader near the waters
edge here at Barrowfields.  This is how much I ate and the door opened
up for me:

  8 x Red Meat
  10 x Fish
  12 x Apple Pies

On another attempt I ate:

  14 x Red Meat
  10 x Apple Pies
  1 x Fish

That made 25-30 good meals and I only had to buy a few fish and pies on
either try.
