Forest West and the Bear Shop

Main routes
- East: return to the Hat Mouse side of Cindersap Forest.
- North: follow the upper path toward the Secret Woods connection.
- West: continue toward Aurora Vineyard.
- Northwest corner: the Bear Shop appears here after the bear event is complete.

About the sword decorations
The sword-shaped objects shown near the river are map scenery, not four guaranteed Ancient Sword artifact pickups. In SVE 1.15.11, the Farm Type Manager artifact pools that explicitly include Ancient Sword are assigned to the Mountain and Adventurer Summit, not to four fixed Forest West collection tiles.
