Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls/Soul of Chaos/Lifespring Grotto

Lifespring Grotto is one of the new Soul of Chaos dungeons added in the Dawn of Souls release of Final Fantasy I. It is an optional dungeon, located east of Melmond in the ocean (it appears as a whirlpool). Access is granted once players have defeated the Fiend of Water, Kraken.

It is highly recommended that you save your game before entering Lifespring Grotto! It is also highly recommended that you do not save inside Lifespring Grotto, as once you enter, there is no way out except for defeating a boss.

Entrance Area
A lone mermaid keeps watch over the entrance area. If you haven't defeated Kraken yet, you can't continue beyond this point. '''WARNING: Once you enter the nearby door, you will be unable to return to this area. Also, the White Magic spell Exit and Black magic spell Teleport will not function further inside!''' Enter the door when ready.

Bosses
Astute Final Fantasy fans might recognize these bosses, as they all previously appeared in Final Fantasy V. Remember, you may only fight one boss before being forced to exit the Grotto, so choose wisely!
