MAP11: Return to The Forlorn Fortress is the fourth map of Eternal Doom IV. It was designed by Chris Couleur and uses the music track "DETH Bells" by Rich Nagel (Weeds). The map is a (vastly) expanded version of Eternal Doom's MAP09: Forlorn Fortress.

Map of Return to The Forlorn Fortress

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 north end of the fortress, with the yellow keycard tower, you can hop into the wells north and south of the tower to collect a soul sphere (north well) and partial invisibility (south well). Both wells count as the same secret. (sector 74)
2. In the sewers beneath the north end of the fortress, head south, up the right ladder, and head east until you find a branching path north. Take that path up and take the stairs up, then head south and jump from the broken glass towards the well in the small courtyard. Swim down to get a megasphere. (sector 220)
