Map of The Sewers of Sorona

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. At the southwest end, head to the room with the grating on the floor, where you can spot a ring mail underneath you. To get it, crouch to the west and follow the path to get under the grating to the ring mail. (sector 141)
2. At the southwest end, head to the north area with pipes and open the east wall. Head around and open another wall to get two bags of money and a quartz flask. (sector 181)
3. In the area where Haart is, head south of the desk with the large chalice and open the wall with the ring to find a mystic urn. (sector 2494)
4. Lower a shelf northeast of Haart to find four flasks of holy water. (sector 2587)
5. Two sectors in one of the rooms at the north end are inaccessible without the no-clipping code. (sector 3091)
6. See Secret #5. (sector 3092)

Bugs

A loaf of bread (Thing 2252) has no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so it does not actually appear in the level.
