The Sliths in this village have renounced the ways of the dark Sliths lead by Sss-Thsss who pay allegiance to Grah-Hoth. Although they do not speak human languages very well and are rather reticent about talking to you, they are reasonably friendly.

It is always a good idea to talk to everybody. The following notes give hints on hidden rooms, traps and puzzles.
In the NW corner of the town is a staircase into this pit. Down there you will be greeted by three Mutant Lizards and round the corner are a Basilisk and some more Mutant Lizards. Once you have disposed of them you can look around. There are a few things like herbs (even some Greymould) and lanterns lying around. The two nests also contain some useful items like various crystals, an Acid Spray Scroll and an Ivory Band.
If you pray at the shrine in the SE you get an intense feeling of peace and well-being but it does not seem to affect any statistics. You also hear a small voice coming from the altar, telling you that there will be no peace for the sliths until Sss-Thsss falls.
There is neither a Job Board nor any secret doors in this town.
