Where to find dark essence in Len’s Island?

To find dark essence in Len's Island, players will first need to locate the Ancient Caves dungeon in the game. The Ancient Caves is a vast dungeon complex that holds many resources and a dangerous foe.

The dangerous foe comes in shadow creatures known as voids or void creatures. If you want dark essence for crafting recipes, you will need to slay these creatures. But before you embark on a quest to find these monsters, we recommend making some preparations. 

In short, you will need a lot of food and a decent weapon if you are to have hope of surviving in the Ancient Caves.

Luckily you can get both by either farming gold or purchasing these items in town. Before you can buy goods in town, you will also need to rebuild the bridge leading to it. 

If you don't know how to repair the bridge, you basically need to gather the correct amount of both stone and limestone. See our how to repair the bridge that leads to town guide for more information.

That said, once you are inside the town, we recommend farming gold by chopping trees down with an ax. Gather around 150 wood and then sell it to the wood merchant for 15 gold. After you sell the wood, get back to chopping wood and sell it again to farm as much gold as you need to buy equipment and food.

After you get at least a pirate sword for 80 gold a few things for food, you will be ready to farm for dark essence in the Ancient Caves in the game.
