Lore
Old Kethotum is the old town of Kethotum, a red stone fortress raised in a valley of tall rocks, as it stood before the fire came. Its narrow streets climb in steps toward a castle of short, thick towers built to withstand sieges. Hunters and beast tamers lived there, famous for breeding war wolves and war bulls for the neighboring kingdoms.
Kethotum's tamers kept their animals in kennels dug beneath the town. When rotten mana seeped up through the ground, the beasts were the first to change: the wolves rose onto two legs, the bulls gained a giant's strength and the hunting birds turned into long-clawed harpies. They broke their chains, took the streets and drove out their former masters for good.
Old Crimson Lycan, Old Crimson Minos and Old Crimson Harpy are the rebel beasts, with dark red fur and feathers. All of them fight up close with bites, horns and talons. Their leader is an Old Crimson Harpy who turned the castle into her nest and rules the town from above. When she dives on an intruder, she delivers a Brutal Strike that can floor even heavily armored warriors.
Monsters in Old Kethotum
The horde of Old Kethotum comes in waves: the first ones on the list show up in the early stages and the last ones near the boss. The numbers are the reference values, without Reset; with each Reset the monsters get stronger.

On Hard items drop as Nightmare (+40% to flat attributes and +30% to % bonuses); on Hardcore they also drop as Nightmare, and once in a while, very rarely, a Godlike (+80%) comes, delivered by letter.
Special enemies pay more: the Elite drops an item 38% of the time, the Champion 70% and the Ancient Monster 100%; Champion and Ancient Monster raise the item's rarity by 1 level. The jewel chance is 2× on the Elite, 4× on the Champion and 8× on the Ancient Monster. Each Reset also raises the jewel chance a little. See Special enemies (PT).

Frequently asked questions
How do stages work?
Each map has 10 stages (the little bars on the area card). You advance by defeating the horde.
On stage 10 the map boss shows up by itself. Beat it with ADVANCE on and you move to the next map.
What are the Hard and Hardcore modes?
On the Map (🗺️ WORLD button) there are 3 cards at the top: NORMAL, HARD and HARDCORE. Tap a locked card to see what you still need to open it.
- HARD: opens at 10 resets. The same 51 maps, stronger, and every item that drops is Nightmare: the same item as in Normal with 30% more base stats (×1.3). If you die, you go back one map (from Hard 1, to Normal).
- HARDCORE: opens when you beat the Hard 51 boss (Hardcore 1 asks for 300 resets). Items drop as Nightmare and, very rarely, a Godlike comes: 70% more base stats (×1.7), delivered by letter. If you die, you go back one map.
- Each boss beaten in a mode opens the next map and gives a Mark (+0.3% against monsters).
- At the BLACKSMITH, Migrate tab, an item's whole + moves to the same Nightmare or Godlike item.
What is "After the boss"?
It's in BATTLE ORDERS, on the BATTLE screen, and decides what happens when the boss falls:
- ADVANCE: go to the next area (the default and recommended).
- REPEAT: redo the same area's route, good for farming.
I can't beat the boss. Now what?
- Spend all unused points (SEE DETAILS › ATTRIBUTES).
- Wear your best INVENTORY items and repair broken ones at the BLACKSMITH.
- Upgrade your skills (SEE DETAILS › SKILLS › UPGRADE).
- Refine your equipment at the BLACKSMITH.
- Lock an earlier stage and hunt for a while to level up.
