A Jawtoise Heart can be found in a treasure chest on B3F of the Den of the Dwarves in the past. More can also be won as prizes by playing the Lucky Panel game starting from the Casino at Pilgrim's Rest in the present onward. Finally, a jawtoise heart can be obtained by defeating the terrible terrapins at the Sunken Citadel in the past or from the Coral Cave in both the past and the present.
