CANTLIN

Cantlin (AKA Mercado) is a walled city located in the south central area of Alefgard. It exists in Dragon Quest and Dragon Quest III.

Synopsis

Dragon Quest I

In Dragon Quest, the impenetrable city of Cantlin is typically the last major city the Hero visits. It is surrounded by some of the strongest monsters that roam the overworld. When first approached, the player will battle the Golem who guards the city, which is triggered when the Hero first attempts to enter the walls surrounding the city. This boss battle is a one-time event, and is the only place where a Golem can be encountered. The weapons and armor shop in Cantlin sells the best equipment the character can purchase in the game.

Dragon Quest III

In Dragon Quest III, Cantlin contains references to its future representation in Dragon Quest I, such as a man contemplating the construction of a Golem to protect the city from attackers. At the end of the game, the scholar believes he may not have to build one after all with the land having been saved from darkness; but the events in Dragon Quest I prove he had to, after all.
