- — Description
The Pirate's Graveyard, is an optional dungeon in Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. It totals 12 levels, though some maps are repeated.
The location becomes available after reading the Pirate's Graveyard talk topic during Chapter 4. It plays a story role in the sidequest to recruit Azelstan, and in Episode 1 of CODA.
Story[]
Denam and Azelstan at the end of the graveyard
The Pirate's Graveyard is the name given to a network of treacherous seaside caverns nestled near Port Omish. The caves are legendary amongst treasure hunters for the great riches said to be hidden inside. However, such is the danger posed by monsters and spirits that congregate there, only one man has returned from the depths alive.
In truth, there is a material treasure hidden through the depths of the caverns, but it's very little. More poignantly, the site serves as a resting place for the spirits of anonymous pirates who died at sea. The deepest caverns lead to a cliff overlooking the sea, which is strewn with swords embedded in the ground. Each sword represents a lost soul who died without a grave, and without anyone to mourn their memory.

- "A natural labyrinth created by the dripping subterranean water and the seawater that rushes in with the tides. The salt in the water has crystallized throughout much of the cave."

The dungeon progresses in a mostly linear fashion. At first, only the levels up to Ripples Grief may be accessed. To progress deeper, the player must either recruit Azelstan, or initiate CODA.

The Treasure[]
After defeating Rackham at On Holy Ground, Denam can choose whether or not to take the treasure of the graveyard. Taking the treasure will cost Chaos Frame to an extent, so it's not recommended if the player still intends to recruit Cressida, or aim for the Tristan Epilogue.
The treasure includes a Buccaneer classmark, a Glass Pumpkin, an Elixer, a Seal of Rebirth, and a platinum oberyth coin.
