The common area of the dungeon serves as the entrance through which all family members must pass. Ordinarily, players will climb down the ladder and immediately drop three levels before traveling to the right and dropping several more levels to reach the dragon painting. From there, their paths will part. However, there is one very important reason to visit the right side of the common area at least once, and that is to collect Xemn's block moving glove. As you are likely to start with Pochi, it makes sense to review the collection of the glove at this time. | The common area of the dungeon serves as the entrance through which all family members must pass.

Assuming you proceed to the bottom of the ladder, run to the right through the room full of Wizards. Then access the room to the right. There are a couple of enemies to watch out for in here, including the Elemental which resembles an ordinary block, but is in fact harmful to touch unless you are Pochi. From the edge of the platform beyond the Elemental, jump off to the right and dive down to the heart of the dungeon where the dragon painting can be seen. To reach Pochi's area, simply run to the right and climb down the ladder in the lower right corner. | Assuming you proceed to the bottom of the ladder, run to the right through the room full of Wizards.

The entrance to Pochi's area contains a few long open rooms which can be bypassed almost immediately.

Drop down the next ladder that you see to return to the room below. Unless you are concerned with collecting an Elixir, you can move to the left and drop down to the floor, and head into the room to the left. You will need at least one key to unlock the door and access the rest of Pochi's area. | ||
If you would like to collect an | If you would like to collect an Elixir, head to the right after you climb down the ladder from the green room. Remain along the upper platforms until you reach a thick column of blocks. Many of the blocks that compose the column can be walked through, including a high and low entrance on the left, and a middle exit on the right. On the opposite side of the column, you'll have to keep Pochi on the platforms above the spikes that line the floor. If you stay on top of them and proceed all the way to the right, you will find a treasure chest containing an [[Image:Dragon Slayer IV item elixer NES.png|16px]] '''Elixir'''. | ||
Proceed through the maze in the room that lies immediately below the dragon painting. Although enemies whiz through the corridors, they are no threat to Pochi. You must remain along the top paths until you reach the ladder on the far left side.

Once you collect it, return to the room below (either by retreating the way you came, or by looping around through the illusion block at the top of the wall) and drop down to the room below by passing through the path contained in the white blocks. To make it through this next maze, employ a similar philosophy as you did to the last maze: remain towards the top of the screen as you travel to the left until you reach the ladder on the far end, and then climb down to the bottom.

At this point, you may wish to use the Inn to refuel your life and magic meters, as well as changing any of your inventory items. Pochi can make use of the Shield if you happen to possess it, although the battle against the first two bosses aren't so tough for Pochi that he would require it to succeed. You will see many treasure chests in this room, but the truth is that all but one are Mimic monsters. The only true treasure chest is the one immediately above the Inn. The Mimics in this room are so powerful that they will kill any other member of the family in one hit, including Xemn and Roas even if they happen to be wearing armor. Rather than killing Pochi, they actually serve as assistants. The Mimic which lies closest to the Shop can be used to help boost Pochi into the illusion blocks that compose a corridor above the floor. From this location, Pochi can jump up to the platform above (crashing through illusion blocks), and then leap once more to another platform to the right, which will lead to the ladder above the true chest. In this chest, you will find the [[Image:Dragon Slayer IV item crown NES.png|16px]] '''Crown'''. The boss that you fight will be determined by the order in which you collect the Crowns. See the [[Legacy of the Wizard/Bosses|bosses page]] for more information. | At this point, you may wish to use the Inn to refuel your life and magic meters, as well as changing any of your inventory items.
