Water Tunnel

The Water Tunnel is a safe sub-area at the end of Backwoods. It is dark and made of green bricks.

Layout
It is accessed from a stairway at the end of Backwoods. There is an exit at the bottom of the area to Western Top Level. This way out is initially closed from the Top Level side, but after leaving Water Tunnel by this path once, it remains open in both directions.

There is a side room to the left in which Jaye Tera has written on the walls. Visiting this room is one of the requirements for adding him to your party.

Beyond Backwoods
At the right side of the area is a side path leading to an upwards stairway back to the surface. Here, a single room similar in appearance to the rest of the Backwoods may be found. It contains the Unfire. In this room, there is also a strange decoration made of floating eyes that appears nowhere else in the game.

Trivia

 * Interacting with the exit while it is closed yields the message "The rock face feels hollow...".
