Description
Beneath the grasslands of Sarutabaruta sprawls the catacombs of the Horutoto Ruins. Above ground, the entrances to these ancient tunnels are found within the giant, tree-like towers scattered across the savanna. The tunnels, rooms and caverns within are home to goblins, bats, beetles, skeletons and numerous other monsters.
Nobody really knows the purpose of the Horutoto Ruins, though a magical energy continues to emanate from their depths.
Points of Interest
- The magical gizmo for the mission The Horutoto Ruins Experiment can be found by traveling through the cracked wall at H-9 on the first map.

- The Cat Burglar's secret hideout is behind the Mahogany Door at G-8 on the second map.

You learn from your mistakes and your mistakes learn from you.
In the East Saru area Upper Tower, there are three NM spawns, Doppelganger Dio, Gog, and the Bomb King. There is also a Magical Gismo door located behind a false wall.
The Middle Tower is used in Windurst Mission 1-1. Behind a cracked wall you can go lower into tunnels and find the Mahagony door. Further down it leads to three mage gate, which is connected to Rank Three Missions and above. If you keep going straight you'll end up exiting the Middle Tower in the West Saru area. Also treasure chest spawn in the tunnels below the tower. I got a key from killing the weaker slimes once.
The Lower Tower is a square and is used for Windurst Mission 1-2.
In the West Saru area, the Northern tower opens up to a large room with lots of low level gobs and bats. To the left of the tower entrance, along the wall there is a cracked wall that leads further down. This tower area is pretty straight forward and youll end up running into a large cavern room with lots of Ghouls and Black Jellies. If you walk against the back wall youll find that part of it is fake and is actually another tunnel. Down this tunnel there is a cerment door and large machine which asks for a Password, an Infinity core, and an Elemental chip. Upon asking some higher level associates (whether true or not) I was told it was used to make random items.
The Middle tower is the exit from the other system.
The Lower tower is full of varying level cardians. They range from Two of, all the way to Ten of, as well as some higher level Weapon class monsters further in the back behind a few cracked walls. Further back is a Magical Gismo door used in another of the higher rank missions.
Hope this helps anyone running around these areas.

"ill tank white mage style. dying in two hits and causing a horrendous party wipeout."
By the way, this tower has a ton of Cardians in the Two and Three range, but no higher. If you manage to run across a Four of Swords, you're in the wrong tower. Widescan's handy too ;)

I went to that place as a level 30 RDM/BLM and was soloing the wendigoes because they weren't that hard to deal with one on one.
Leaving was where I ran into my trouble though. The room with the teleporter had 3 Wendigoes in it and one was always facing the teleportation device so I went for the Canal......
....nuff said.
For those of you who don't know everything in there is like lvl 45+ and I died from a canal bat that hit me 3 times for 140 dmg. Was funny though.

I was just exploring this area at level 32 (RDM) and went through here. The big room with the goblins leads to two places. Another cracked wall thing leads to a path that has the treasure chest (sometimes) and a sealed door that I could not open. Another exit from that room leads to the Tower in West Sarutabaruta that is right by the Windurst Waters exit (that has a drop off so you can't really enter from that side, only leave). The 3 Mage Gate is inside here, and beyond that gate (which I got in by following someone else when they opened it) are a bunch of Wendigos that were easy prey to me and an exit that leads to Toraimarai Canal (I didn't go in). All in all it's very interesting, and I encourage people to take the trip.
**************************************************
The far eastern tower in East Saruta (Cat Burglar's lair) connects to the tower in West Saruta that's right outside the northern gate (Odin, I believe) at Windurst Waters.
In the eastern tower in Saruta, go down to the caves where the cat burglar is. If you keep going west there is a large room wall to wall with level 20-something goblins (EM/DC/E to level 26 Rdm). At the end of this room is a door. Once you go through the door you are now in a tower in West Saruta. This is where the gate is that you need a Rdm, Blm, and Whm to open (Windurst Mission). If you go passed the gate, you will go up a ramp and come out on a ledge in the tower right outside the northern gate in Windurst Waters (this is the tower you come to to complete the quest for the Horutoto map).
Also, I believe that Torim Canal comes out somewhere in Windurst, but am not quite the level to test this out :/

For the people looking for the Mahogony Door go thru the cracked wall at G-8 on the second level of the ruins head to G-8
Her hideout is the Mahogany Door in the "Scoop" quest. Refer to that quest here on site for directions there.

Could it be that the tower system in the East and West are somehow linked? Just last night I was down in the tower that is the furthest North and West on the West Sabarutu area.
There is a Cracked wall on the East side small room, going through you end up in a massive cave. In there are a ton of Goblins. Some of them are rated very tough for my level 13 red mage. So I did not get to see what was at the end of this cave. Time to get a party together and rampage through. I will post back if I find anything.

When you go down the main stairs and round the corner you are in a big square room. There are no cracks in the wall that I can find and the only way forward is a hallway that is one floor above the floor of the room which you are now standing.
How do you get up there!!!???!
thanks,

1st step is to go to the Orastery which is located at E-7 in Port Windurst. Then talk to the two tarutaru that are on the stage. They will ask you to go to the Horutoto Ruins tower. Im not sure which one as I haven't completed this quest yet, but I think its the east one located at J-7 on Sarutabaruta East. Then your on your own.. I haven ckeared it yet. I'll post update if I get more info

Proud accomplishment: Been playing since 2002 and have only reached level 52.
The map to it is from a quest in Windurst Waters. I believe the guy is in the Osteruary and just requires you to run out to the tower just to the west after you enter Saratabata from Windurst Waters.
