Guide
Note: This guide is on Insane Mode. If you're playing in Normal Mode, keep reading! It's better to know a little bit more! :)

This is level is extremely hard on Insane Mode, so read carefully.

First Wave: 1 Theif After the intro video, move to your right slowly, you'll see a small bush in front of you. Raise your shield then slowly walk near it. If you get close enough, "it" will "move" away from you, revealing a Theif inside. After that, quickly use your magic to attack him. This should be easy. Remember, keep raising your shield as the Theif might shoot or slash you if you get too close.

Getting the Boomerang: After defeating the Theif, keep moving to the right, you'll see a similar bush below an owl. If you bring Cardinal to the level, he'll retrieve the boomerang from the bush for you.

Second Wave: 4 Theives Run to the right, quickly grab the gold before a Theif gets it. After that, 4 Theives will show up and attack you. You can use the air-juggling combo to attack the nearest Theif (be quick) and then line up the rest and use your magic splash attack to damage them at the same time. When in doubt, raise your shield. Remember to grab food from fallen enemies too.

Third Wave: 6 Theives Just a few steps to the right, another wave of Theives will arrive and try to overwhelm you. Lots of arrows will be shot, but you can avoid it by going airborn by using the "Double Jump With Spin Combo" (press the "jump button" twice) then quickly air-juggle them to death. Or you can stay on the ground, raising your shield, waiting for enemies to line up then use your magic to damage them at the same time. Then you can open the chest safely to reveal a new weapon: "Meat Tenderizer".
