As soon as you arrive in the woods, you will be confronted by a Flameman and two skulls. Destroying the skulls should be your first priority, but watch out for the Flameman's fireballs which follow the terrain of the ground. Near the east end (point A) is a hidden Clue Book. Continue left until you encounter more hovering blocks over a lake. Once on the opposite side, continue to clear away enemies as they appear. Do not let them gang up on you or surround you. Proceed left to Joma Marsh.
