Zone 1: Fatback CaveEdit
This is a fairly routine goblin cave. Proceed through the passages and rooms past five or six enemies to reach the main chamber. The entrance to the chamber is fitted with a Swinging Log trap at G, which may be set off by the enemies.
The main goblin lair appears to be the room southwest of the main chamber (with the bedroll at b). It is protected by a stockade, and contains the usual assortment of goblin odds and ends, including three dead rats, a dead skeleton, and a table with 14 gold coins (2 of which are underneath it) and an iron dagger lying in a pool of blood. A Swinging Mace trap (E) is in a small area northwest of the main chamber, but unless you like pumpkins, there's no real reason to go near it (only one pumpkin and one enemy are on the other side of the trap). A tunnel in the pit in the middle of the chamber leads to the door (C) to the next zone, Fatback Great Chamber.

Zone 2: Fatback Great ChamberEdit
You enter this zone through door C. Turning to the right at the first intersection, the small room ahead to the southwest features a dead captive (G) behind a locked stick fence gate, which also encloses a living rat, a dead skeleton, a lettuce, and a potato. Returning to the passage and following the path to the southeast leads to the lower level of the large central chamber. Only one enemy is on the lower level, but you are likely to be detected by all of the enemies on the upper level who may make their way down to attack you. You do not need to go past the Falling Logs trap at F on the lower level. However, if you do, you will find a dead rat and a table with 12 gold coins and a rusty iron shortsword next to a cozy bonfire; two bedrolls (b) are past the bonfire.
The passage from the lower level to the upper level is to the northeast, accessed from the first left-hand turn after initially entering the chamber. On the upper level, wooden planks (none of which are traps) allow you to proceed clockwise around the chamber. The second Falling Logs trap, at the southwest exit from the chamber, is conspicuously placed on top of a ramshackle assembly of boards. Beyond the trap is the door (D) to the final zone, Fatback Deep Basins.

Zone 3: Fatback Deep BasinsEdit
You enter and exit this zone through door D. To reach the boss chest (B) and boss-level goblin (A), you will need to circle counterclockwise through most of the zone to a point just east of where you entered at D.
