[edit] Walkthough

At the very beginning of this level, you will be met by a few Fish Men and some Snakeys Throughout the entire level, you will simply encounter wave after wave of these two enemies. The basic strategy that you should follow is to stay out of the water and take care of the fish first. If you kill all the enemies but one fish, the fish will start jumping up in the air and diving down on you, knocking you down and doing around 45 damage. Make sure to destroy any statues you find along the way as well, as they will all contain food, gold, or weapons.

[edit] Medusa

Main article: Medusa

Continue fighting your way through more fish and forest knights, and eventually you'll find Medusa combing her hair. Medusa's not too hard once you find a rhythm. Get right up close to her and hold the block button, this will protect you from the snapping snake on her head. As soon as the snake snaps at you and you block it, perform a combo on her then go back to blocking. Move with your up and down the screen. After every snake snap, go for a combo other attack. Keep your attacks to a short burst and return to blocking to anticipate the next snap. Keep this routine up and Medusa will be as good as dead in no time. After you've killed her, quickly pick up her weapon, the Buster Sword. You only have about 5 seconds to get it before the level ends.

[edit] Notes

• At the very beginning of the temple, you will have to look very carefully to find the small "X" on the ground. It's kind of in front of the giant statues of two fish shaking hands. Dig up the "X" to find the Animal Orb, Chicken.
• When you come to a large ruined wall that has two stairways leading back, dig at the "X" on the ground between the stairs to get the Tooth Edged Buster weapon.

[edit] Alternate Method (magic)

You still need to defend against her snake hair, But in between snaps, you will have time for two basic magic attacks (RT+Y). This makes her a very easy boss.
