Walkthrough

After entering the Hexagon, go straight north until you see a tablet. Check the tablet, a ghost(who is actually Erinn's deceased father Edwinn) will appear and show you the switch to open the doorway. The switch is located at the back of the statue situated at the left fork. Turn on the switch, go back to the central passage and continue through the opened door. Go to the right fork to collect a Leather Shield. Go back to the stairs and take the left stair at the north to collect a Golden Ring. Backtrack to the stairs and this time take the right one to go to the Hexagon B1. Go straight to the north and go down the staircase. At the Hexagon B2, go south to collect some coins from the chest then head northwest first to collect a Feather Fan. After this, head northeast to go to the Hexagon B1 (second part). Go anti-clockwise around the floor and collect a Gleenban Groat, then pass through the north door to the next room. Go northwest first to collect a Seed of Deftness. Finally go to the central room, before talking with the blue-haired lady, restore the hero's HP because you will be facing the first boss in the game -- Hexagoon. After the battle and the cutscene, you will be automatically transferred to the entrance.

Note that there is a chest at the north corridor but is not accessible because of the rubble, that room is accessible through the entrance at West Stornway.

Features

As its name implies, many of the rooms within The Hexagon are hexagonally shaped.
