Alhafran Cave

The Alhafran Cave is an underground sublocation in the town of Alhafra, connected to both a guarded entrance underneath the mayor's manor and the back of the jail cell in Alhafra's jail. It can be accessed after the boss battle with Briggs early on in the game, by getting the Large Bread item from the Sailing Ship, giving it to a hungry boy at the main town area's right exit, and getting permission from the guard of the cave's entrance (the boy's father) to explore. At this point, you can only get three of the six chests here, but one of them is the very strong and useful Ixion Mail.
