The Tywll Cave is a dungeon in Dragon Quest IX. It is located west of Porth Llaffan and is on the edge of the beach. It is only accessible through the western gate of Porth Llaffan. The cave leads to Cuddiedig cliff.

Cuddiedig Cliff[]

Cuddiedig Cliff is a private cliff owned by the Mayor of Porth Llaffan; it is accessible through the Tywll Cave. Jona and the Mayor of Porth Llaffan come here. The mayor hopes that Jona can summon Lleviathan for him, to bring riches and jewels from the sunken ships. Lleviathan appears and "saves" Jona from the mayor, as it beleives that the mayor is a bad person for trying to force Jona to summon it.

Trivia[]

  • "Tywll" is most like a malapropism of the Welsh word "tawel" which means "quiet", or the misspelling of the word "tywyll", which means "dark" in Welsh.
  • "Cuddiedig" is similar to the Welsh word "cuddio", which means "to hide".
