Asham: Difference between revisions

|game = {{Dragon Quest III}}

'''Asham''' is a town in {{DQ3}}.

It located southeast of [[Romaria]] and sits in the shadow of an immense mountain chain, which in correspondence to the real world would place it around Iraq.

Asham is a rest point before venturing through the harsh desert to reach [[Isis]] and the [[Pyramid]]. It is close to the left entrance of [[Nordy's Grotto]], through which the player must pass to reach [[Baharata]].

==Etymology==

*The Japanese name, ''Assarāmu'', is derived from ''[[wikipedia:As-salamu alaykum|as-salamu alaykum]]'', an Arabic greeting that means "peace be upon you".

*In the {{NES}} version, the imp behind can the [[magic key]] door can be battled any time the player enters the room; in the remakes, it won't reappear.
