Location

Pachua lives on a plateau at the top of the snake-filled Desert Mountains. There are two ways to reach Pachua:

Teleport to Pachua

Teleportation is the quickest and safest way to reach Pachua. In the Old Wizard's house in the northeastern Woodlands, there is a magic scroll that will teleport you directly to Pachua:

Walk to Pachua

Starting in Tulimshar, leave through the southern gate and follow the road east through the desert to the pass guarded by Stewen. Walk through the pass and into the Snake Desert. Follow the cliff to the southeast corner of the map. This area is filled with Green Slimes, Black Scorpions, and Giant Maggots.

When you reach the southeast corner of the Snake Desert, you'll find Mika standing outside the entrance to the Desert Mountain Cave. The caves are filled with Mountain Snakes.

Inside the cave, the road forks in three places: Go east at the first fork, which is in the second cave. Go south at the next fork, which is in the fourth cave. Go west at the last fork, which is in the fifth cave. In short: east, south, west. At the top of the mountain, you'll find Pachua.
