Royal Caverns

A large, subterranean facility on Port Royal, the Royal Navy uses this cave as a prison work camp of sorts. Elsewhere, there are scattered tents for the imprisoned workers - many of whom will happily heal an injured pirate for only 5 gold.

There is a jail building, but if you are Knocked Out here, you will wake up in the main Port Royal jail. This place is likely to house the imprisoned workers. There is also the Royal Navy Foreman's Office, which acts like a headquarters for the naval detachment, led by Dragoon Boss David Benbow.

It is very similar to Beckett's Quarry on Padres Del Fuego. The cave area has undergone a major change since the Island Destructions.

There are lots of EITC and Navy soldiers here, but they are not anywhere as dangerous. While there are no permanent bosses in this area, some unstationary bosses are known to appear here.

Location

Pirates can get here from the Governor's Garden or Wicked Thicket. The Caverns connect them.

Cave Changes

The Royal Caverns, like many cave areas, were radically changed during the Island Destructions. Originally, the caverns were smaller and more dense with a higher ceiling. Numerous catwalks ran across open areas of shallow pools of water. It was also darker in many areas.

Changing the layout was meant to disperse enemies into more areas and add more space for searchable items, etc.
