Finding the First Palace

 * Now follow the road back to the mountain. Go through the forest to the east of the road and you will find the opening to a cave. Enter it.


 * The cave is dark but there is only one enemy and it's short. Just keep going left until you exit the cave on the other side.

 * Keep walking right. You will find an elevator. Skip it for now and keep walking right until you find another elevator. Use it to go up. (note: to the right there is fairy that will heal you once.)


 * At the top, go right and you will find a key. Take the key and keep going right until you find another key. Take the key and go back to the elevator. (note: if you hit the statue near the key with your sword, it will give you a mana recharge potion, do this if you need it.)


 * Go back down the elevator and go to the elevator I told you to skip. Use it to go down.


 * Go left until you find a bridge. Be careful here, the bridge will decay as you walk across it. You can get the p-bag on it by squatting to hit it, and then jumping forward. Do this and exit the screen to the left.


 * Go left until you find a red creature throwing maces. Kill it and it will drop a p-bag worth 200 exp.


 * Keep going left until you find a locked door. Unlock it, go through it, and get the candle. (The candle will light up caves when you go through them.) Go back to the elevator and go up.


 * Go right to the other elevator and go down.


 * Go right until you find the boss: a horse in red armor. To beat him, time your jumps between his mace swings and hit him in the head. Beat him and take the key that drops after he explodes.


 * Go right, unlock the door with the key, and jump up on the platform with the statue. Link will place a stone in a hole. After this, go right and exit the palace where the statue of the knight is.
