Moonlit Forest Walkthrough
February 14, 2026 at 09:41 AM
Full rewrite with area-by-area walkthrough, boss strategies, resource table, and spirit/chest cross-references
The Moonlit Forest is hidden behind a portal. The portal is inside a cavern behind the Damaged Door near your home. To break the door, you first need to talk to Zephyria at the Exploration Club (above Green Pasture Ranch). He starts you on the Exploration profession and gives you ammo for your Slingshot.
Aim at the two yellow weak spots between the cracks in the door. Once both are hit, the door breaks. Step through the archway to find Copper Ore and Midnight Herbs, and a portal at the back of the cavern.
Your starting area. Fix the camp tent, then walk north (toward the giant purple mushrooms), then west. You will find Gravemite crystals -- orange-glowing rocks that contain trapped spirits. Break them to release spirits you will need later.
See the spirit locations guide for all Gravemite locations.
Fix the bridge and continue forward to the Gate of Life tent. Repairing this camp costs 5x Fluorite.
Down the ramp to the left of the tent:
A Runebird you can fight for the first Exploration quest.
A boulder you can break with your Slingshot (leads back to the first tent).
The second Gravemite is in this clearing.
The third Gravemite is by a large door back up the ramp. You need all three spirits to open it.
Through the door, follow the path to a river with a bubble bridge. Cross to the other side.
Dodge its attacks by running around it, then fire your Slingshot between attacks. A few hits and it goes down.
After crossing the river, you enter the Dreamfall Garden.
Walk straight to a gate you need to shoot with your Slingshot.
Past the gate, a Luminfrog attacks. About five Slingshot hits to kill it.
Ladders on the left lead up to chests. The gem in the center activates a blue bridge.
Across the bridge, you find Iron Ore. This is one of the main Iron locations in the game.
Up the staircase, you face the Crystalith boss.
Five or so Slingshot hits. Dodge its attacks by moving out of the way. Straightforward fight.
Bring 50 to 60 ammo. Fire at its body between attacks, and get a strong hit in when it starts repowering from the crystal in the center of the clearing. It does not actually regain health from the crystal. Dodge by running in either direction.
After beating the Crystalith, go through the doorway. The tent is on the left. Another door on the right leads deeper.
Through the door and down the path, there is a reward site next to large purple mushrooms for the second set of Gravemite Spirits.
The next campsite area. Two paths lead out of here:
Straight ahead: a clearing with another Luminfrog. Beyond that, a golden bubble path across a waterfall leads to a large locked gate. You need two keys from advancing the Exploration profession to open it.
Up the stone stairs: leads to Mural Valley.
Mural Valley has resources you cannot find in Starsand Town, including three varieties of Sleep Lily near the waterfall.
Directly across from the campsite is a lift to the lower waterfall area. Down there: Blue, Red, and Yellow Sleep Lily flowers, Coal Ore, and Lotus Leaves from the river.
