In game map of Wormwood Creek |
Wormwood Creek is a town in Dragon Quest IX. It is a location of key importance in the plot relating to Serena and Corvus. Unless the hero arrive here along the storyline, all stores here (except the inn) will not serve any outsiders, including the hero. This is probably a protection setting to prevent the player obtaining better equipment too early, since the town is reachable from Porth Llaffan after the ship is acquired.
History
This place used to be called Wyrmward Creek. The natives were supposed to be wardens of a great hero. But over the years, the people forgot their purpose and the village name got changed. The great hero was named Greygnarl, who rode a mighty dragon into combat against an evil dragon in the fiercest of battles. The Hero of the Heavens, as he was also known, lived with his followers atop the Magmaroo, a volcano to the west of the village.
