The world has forced Dark Elves to retreat into the ground, and they've been living in a cave called Silence Cave, located under DV. Looks like someone has uncovered those stairs. It's a rough life, as leaving the Dark Elf newbie area introduces you immediately to Cockatrice, but I digress.

The NPC in Silence Cave sells all the typical newbie item shops, as well as new Dark Elf items. These items are Dark Elf only. Here is a list of their names and prices. (Item stats integrated from NewsPos: http://www.newspos.com/Content.asp?tb=bnews&ob=news&seqs=58&page=1&pb=N)

  Like regular infravision, this can be disabled in the options menu.

  Also, there is a teleporter to Hidden Valley, if you feel that DV is not suitable for your newbie to hunt ;)
