|Synopsis=The '''Limestone Cave''' is a natural cavern at the northern end of the mountain range that splits [[Serdio]] in two. Ordinarily, it facilitates travel between [[Seles]] and [[Bale]] by way the [[Prairie]], but its recent occupation by a [[Urobolus|poisonous monster]] has dissuaded travel. It was already a dangerous route to begin with. A stream runs through it, and passage in some areas is only possible via stepping stones to cross the water. Nevertheless, it houses a variety of spectacular features including waterfalls, vacuous crags, and glowing stone. Despite being a subterranean passageway, overhead breaches allow sunlight to enter, and some of the minerals inside the cave seem to glow.
|Story1=[[Dart]], [[Shana]], and [[Lavitz]] arrive at the Limestone Cave from the Prairie. They enter via a mouth in a bluff created by an estuary. Their going is mostly easy until the trio comes upon a series of stepping stones. With no other way to cross the water, Dart urges Shana to be cautious, and they proceed. Just before they have all crossed safely, Lavitz slips on the penultimate stone. He would have tumbled off the stone and over a waterfall if not for Dart reacting quickly and catching him.

|Synopsis=
Deeper in the cave, while traversing a vacuous chamber, the group finds a swarm of glowing organisms. Dart immediately identifies them as [[Rock Fireflies]]. Dart remarks that they have saved him often, and Lavitz agrees, expressing a special appreciation for the ones found near a battlefield. Ignorant and again feeling left out, Shana demands to know what they are. Dart gives her a practical demonstration while Lavitz explains that their light has the ability to heal. Dart teases that Shana at least learned something. Indignant, Shana states that she also knows something that Dart does not but refuses to specify. Lavitz opines that after five years of separation, it is expected that there will be things they do not know about each other. He goes on to reminisce in the familiarity he shares with his mother every time he goes home to visit.


'''Limestone Cave''' is the fifth accessible area in the first disc of Legend of the Dragoon.  It is located on the north end of Serdio, and serves as a passage between the [[Prairie]] and [[Bale]].  The party must pass through the cave so that [[Lavitz]] can report back to [[Albert]] about the events at [[Seles]] and [[Hellena]].  The Limestone Cave is a treacherous place, where rushing water and slick surfaces make it difficult for the party to get around.  It also contains several unique enemies that the party has not encountered before, including enemies that can induce the poison effect (needs confirmation).  At the center of a cave lurks the deadly serpent [[Urobolos]].
As the group approaches the other side, they arrive in another vacuous chamber containing an underground lake. While traversing it, they are set upon by the "guardian" of the Limestone Cave, a large, serpent-like beast known as the Urobolus. They defeat the creature with Dart delivering the final blow to its head. It screeches in agony and collapses. Although Dart and Lavitz proceed, Shana straggles behind, leaving her open to another attack from the Urobolus, which is still alive after all.
 
|Story1=
 
After leaving the warmth and light of the Prairie, Dart, Shana, and Lavitz enter the Limestone Cave. The mouth of the cave faces [[Basil]]'s scenic northern coast, and the cave is cut through with rushing streams and eroding rock platforms. Dart and friends must maneuver their way through the twisting passages, battling subterranean creatures and collecting numerous items along the way. It's not all danger and gloom, however: the second room from the cave entrance contains a natural water slide, which Dart can ride down, unbothered. Parts of the Limestone Cave are beautiful, with water pooling and glimmering with what little light there is in the depths.  
 
|Story2=
The party travels across a river deep in the cavern by hopping over stepping stones. Just before they've all crossed safely, Lavitz slips on the penultimate stone: he would have tumbled off the stone and over the edge of a waterfall if it wasn't for Dart's quick reflexes. Dart is able to pull Lavitz out of danger, and together they return safely to solid ground, exasperated and relieved by the adrenaline of it all. Lavitz thanks Dart for saving his life (a second time) to which Dart cooly responds, "I was just there." Nevertheless, Lavitz shows appreciation for the relationship, exuberantly thanking Dart, and they seem to share a moment of camaraderie. Shana watched this all unfold, and is noticeably left out of the celebration. The two men proceed through the cave together without waiting for her.
After, the party dives further into the depths of the cavern. They seem to be traveling above the water now, on a series of eroded limestone platforms. At the center of this cavern are a cluster of flickering orbs. Dart recognizes these for what they are first: [[Rock Fireflies.]] Here, only the gossamer-light of the fireflies waxes and wanes as if greet the party. They are a welcome sight, as Rock Fireflies can completely heal and refresh the party.
 
Dart and Lavitz are both familiar with the utility of Rock Fireflies on the battlefield, but Shana has never seen them before.  Again, she feels left out. Dart stirs up the fireflies and they grow brighter until the healing light engulfs the room. The party is refreshed. Shana is astonished, and Dart remarks that "[she] learned at least one thing." Put out with Dart's shenanigans, Shana retorts, "Well, well. I know something you don't know too, Dart."  It is never revealed exactly what this is, but there are a demonstrable dearth of things that Dart doesn't know. Lavitz steers the interaction away from a confrontation by reminding them that they need to get to Bale soon.
 
The cavern opens up from a series of narrow passageways to a large room containing an underground lake. Daylight can be seen on the far end of the room, indicating to the weary party that they are nearly through the cave system. However, between them and the exit is a long path that wanders across the lake's surface.  
As the party makes their way across, it becomes clear that they are not alone. As Dart charges ahead, Shana and Lavitz are keen to the arrival of the cave guardian, Urobolus!
The party must fight Urobolus to avoid being devoured as the great snake slithers in and out of the cave walls. Finally, Dart rushes ahead to deliver a final blow and Urobolus falls to the floor. Victorious, the party makes their way towards the exit and the promise of the castle, with Shana slowly trailing behind. Something compels her to turn around and cast a last forlorn glance at the defeated creature. However, Urobolus is still alive. It raises its mangled body up and strikes at defenseless Shana.
 
Dart was too far ahead to reach her in time. It's clear that Shana would have become snake-food if it weren't for the emergence of blinding beams of light. Shana is glowing, and within seconds the beast is dissipated in her rays. Dart and Lavitz are dumbfounded as Shana, confused and drained, falls to the floor. Dart inquires what happened and Shana doesn't have an answer. Without another word about this strange occurrence, she rises to her feet and upon Lavitz's suggestion, they continue their way towards [[Bale]].  


Dart rushes to Shana's defense but hesitates when a bright glow emanates in front of Shana. Beams of light overtake the Urobolus, causing it to reel and disintegrate. The light fades away, leaving Dart stunned and Shana distraught. She momentarily collapses, unable to explain what just happened. As they question what they just saw, Lavitz recommends just pressing on to Bale. At last they emerge from the cave on the other side.

Combat

The Limestone Cave is a natural cavern at the northern end of the mountain range that splits Serdio in two. Ordinarily, it facilitates travel between Seles and Bale by way the Prairie, but its recent occupation by a poisonous monster has dissuaded travel. It was already a dangerous route to begin with. A stream runs through it, and passage in some areas is only possible via stepping stones to cross the water. Nevertheless, it houses a variety of spectacular features including waterfalls, vacuous crags, and glowing stone. Despite being a subterranean passageway, overhead breaches allow sunlight to enter, and some of the minerals inside the cave seem to glow.

Story

Dart, Shana, and Lavitz arrive at the Limestone Cave from the Prairie. They enter via a mouth in a bluff created by an estuary. Their going is mostly easy until the trio comes upon a series of stepping stones. With no other way to cross the water, Dart urges Shana to be cautious, and they proceed. Just before they have all crossed safely, Lavitz slips on the penultimate stone. He would have tumbled off the stone and over a waterfall if not for Dart reacting quickly and catching him. Dart is able to pull Lavitz out of danger, and together they return safely to solid ground, exasperated and relieved.

Lavitz thanks Dart for saving his life for the second time since Hellena Prison. Dart stoically dismisses Lavitz's gratitude. They rejoice in a moment of camaraderie involving much shoulder-patting with Lavitz declaring that the pair will share a long friendship. Having observed the sudden blossoming in their relationship, Shana feels left out of the celebration as Dart and Lavitz proceed leaning on each other's shoulders.

Deeper in the cave, while traversing a vacuous chamber, the group finds a swarm of glowing organisms. Dart immediately identifies them as Rock Fireflies. Dart remarks that they have saved him often, and Lavitz agrees, expressing a special appreciation for the ones found near a battlefield. Ignorant and again feeling left out, Shana demands to know what they are. Dart gives her a practical demonstration while Lavitz explains that their light has the ability to heal. Dart teases that Shana at least learned something. Indignant, Shana states that she also knows something that Dart does not but refuses to specify. Lavitz opines that after five years of separation, it is expected that there will be things they do not know about each other. He goes on to reminisce in the familiarity he shares with his mother every time he goes home to visit.

As the group approaches the other side, they arrive in another vacuous chamber containing an underground lake. While traversing it, they are set upon by the "guardian" of the Limestone Cave, a large, serpent-like beast known as the Urobolus. They defeat the creature with Dart delivering the final blow to its head. It screeches in agony and collapses. Although Dart and Lavitz proceed, Shana straggles behind, leaving her open to another attack from the Urobolus, which is still alive after all.

Dart rushes to Shana's defense but hesitates when a bright glow emanates in front of Shana. Beams of light overtake the Urobolus, causing it to reel and disintegrate. The light fades away, leaving Dart stunned and Shana distraught. She momentarily collapses, unable to explain what just happened. As they question what they just saw, Lavitz recommends just pressing on to Bale. At last they emerge from the cave on the other side.

  1. The Bandana gear acquired seems useless, as Dart already has a Bandana and Lavitz comes with a headgear that surpasses it. While wholly unnecessary, it is worth noting that the player can equip this new Bandana on Lavitz in order to give the Sallet to Dart. This technique is marginally more useful as the game progresses, in times when spare gear is low but you wish to move a piece of equipment from one character to another.
