Before adventuring in the following double dungeon, you should better know that afterwards some items will be permanently missing from all shops. It's not a glitch, it's part of the plot (but no spoilers here). Therefore, stock up eight of each item. A few important items that will be missing are the following:

=== The cave ===
There are no chests nor items in the Cave of Baron. The shortest way through is to turn left, then up; after the boss, hug the wall to your left. Anyway, feel free to explore the cave at leisure.

Monmo is weak against Fire spells.
Monmo is weak against Fire spells. This is especially noticeable because his defense is extremely good against everything else. After using the Runes and two bottles of Agility, attack with fire spells (Lejes, Olvan, Kamil) and/or bottles of Fire (Esuna, Valsu).

=== The castle ===
Emerging from the cave of Baron, you get to a peaceful area in front of the gates of Gorfun. If you are missing some of the six Runes, the castle gates will stay locked.
The only chests in Gorfun can be found in the basement.
* '''Ground floor:''' turn left and continue to the stairs;
* '''Floor 1 and upper basement:''' enter the first door and climb the stairs down to the basement; the Crystal shows you a chest, and that is a '''K. Trick''', that should be easy to beat now; the stairs down are in the lower-left part of this floor;
* '''Lower basement:''' climb down several small floors to the basement bottom, where you can find three chests: a '''P. Seed''', a '''Harp''' and the '''Fort. sword''', that can be equipped by Valsu or Esuna.
* '''Floor 2:''' climb up from the basement, then continue right and find the stairs to the 2nd floor; here, just walk all the way to the left to find the next stairs; the door in the halfway in the corridor leads to a series of empty rooms.
* '''Floor 3:''' walk left and enter the first door you see; continue straight and you'll make acquaintance with Gariso, the holder of the Wizard Rune.

Gariso is initially invisible. First, use the Runes and two bottles of Agility; then, use the Moonlight to make Gariso visible, and attack him. When Gariso turns invisible again, first heal up with the Water and Sky Runes, then use the Moonlight again.
When you defeat Gariso, you obtain the '''Wizard Rune'''.
And here is where the '''third nasty trick''' strikes you in the back: as soon as you collect the seventh Rune, they all break into pieces!
Worse, the seven Runes restore the powers of the real enemy (no spoilers here), and he sends you back to the Dark Ages (''Dark World'' in the English localization).
