DRAGON QUEST® XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age™ - Definitive Edition guide · Escaping the castle

The Luminary navigates the underground waterway with Erik to evade pursuing castle guards after breaking out of the dungeon. After a wooden bridge gives way, they plunge deeper into the caverns and find themselves fleeing a colossal Black Dragon. The escape concludes with both characters jumping off a cliff edge into the river far below.
