Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest X[edit]

Tenton is the home of the Hero, their siblings, Tenda, and the Galapogod. It is an island community with an architecture centered around wooden houses with straw roofs, and a river lays to the east boarder. A wooden monument sits in the center of the village, with the base being made of logs covered with tapestries and the top section being bush with a carving shaped like a winged horse set in the center.

The Hero can return to Tenton later during their adventure, but it is a smoldering wreck filled with monsters. Beginning with version 3.5 of the game, surviving villagers have set out to rebuild the town.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age[edit]

Tenton is the second location in the altar of the undeciphered in the Echo Chamber. The Luminary is sent to a time before the village's destruction, and is informed that the Galapogod has been kidnapped by monsters and taken to Baramos' Lair. Fortunately, Tenda had a vision of the Luminary's coming and informed the villagers to give him the Zoomingstone--a rock charged with the Zoom spell that will teleport the great Shelled One once he is found.
