As soon as you gain control over Nathan, drop down the pit to your right and continue down the shaft. There are [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Enemies#Skeletons|Skeleton Bombers]] on most of the ledges and, while one of the weakest enemies in the game, their bombs can do a surprising amount of damage. Avoid or whip the bombs, then kill the Bombers. You might get the {{CotMitem|type=Cards|name=Salamander}}, which is of no use just yet. Right in front of the doorway is a candle that drops a [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Items#Hearts|large heart]]. Grab it, go into the next room, then come back and grab it again. Repeat until you have all of your hearts. | |||
The next room is a large square with three levels, a bunch of exits, and a slew of monsters. Ignore all of that for now, and go down to the second level. On the left side of the room, still on the middle level, is an opening that will take you to the first [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Gameplay#Saving|save room]]. Save your game and then head back into the square room. Fight the monsters until you get the {{CotMitem|type=Cards|name=Mercury}} from the Bone Heads, two {{CotMitem|type=Equipment|name=Wrist Band|display=Wrist Bands}} from the Bats, and the Salamander card from the Skeleton Bombers if you didn't already get one. If you go into the [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/DSS|DSS]] menu, you can equip the two cards that, when activated, give you a [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/DSS#Mercury/Salamander|flame whip]]. You should also hang around this room until you get up to level three or so, and hopefully you'll get a couple of {{CotMitem|type=Items|name=potion|display=potions}} and {{CotMitem|type=Items|name=antidote|display=antidotes}} along the way. Additionally, pick up the {{CotMitem|type=Weapons|name=dagger}} from a candle on the lowest level (if you're playing as a [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Gameplay#Modes|Shooter]], immediately leave the room and come back to the same candle to upgrade your dagger to a [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Weapons#Magic Dagger|magic dagger]]). | |||

Once you have everything that you need from this room, head through the lower right exit, into a long corridor. You'll run into an [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/Enemies#Demons|Earth Demon]] almost immediately. It is strong, but drops two important things: {{CotMitem|type=Equipment|name=Magic Gauntlet|display=Magic Gauntlets}} and the {{CotMitem|type=Cards|name=Serpent}}. It may take a while to get the Serpent Card, but it is worth the time, as not only does the card let you [[Castlevania: Circle of the Moon/DSS#Mercury/Serpent|freeze enemies]], but you'll gain a fair amount of experience getting it. In any case, the first time you're in the room head to the far right and get the {{CotMitem|type=Items|name=Dash Boots}}, which enable you to run by double-tapping {{gb|Left|Dpad}} or {{gb|Right|Dpad}}. Once you have what you need, take a running leap to reach the platforms and navigate to the lower right exit. | Once you have everything that you need from this room, head through the lower right exit, into a long corridor.
