'''Asham''' | '''Asham''' is a town in {{DQ3}}. | ||
It located southeast of [[Romaria]] and sits in the shadow of an immense mountain chain, which in correspondence to the real world would place it around Iraq. | |||
Asham is a rest point before venturing through the harsh desert to reach [[Isis]] and the [[Pyramid]]. It is close to the left entrance of [[Nordy's Grotto]], through which the player must pass to reach [[Baharata]]. | |||

Asham is one of only a few towns to behave an active night life. In addition to having a dancing club and a fortune teller open at night, it also has a weapons and armor shop only open at night. | |||
=== | The older brother of the Isis minister lives in a townhouse locked behind a door that requires the [[Magic Key]] to enter. He waxes philosophically about water being the lifeblood and mankind, but also gives first-time players the direct hint that to enter the eastern lands they will need the [[Royal Missive]] from the [[Portogus Rex]] of [[Portoga]]. A lone [[Imp]] appears in the upstairs section of the building locked with at night, it's [[Morph]] spell and cat disguise having worn off. It will start a battle when confronted, but why it is there is never explained. | ||

{{ | Asham is now set between a series of natural rock walls surrounding an oasis, with palm trees scattered through the town. The con man's item shop has been converted into a normal shop, leaving only the weapons dealer as the resident shyster. There is a [[List of recruitable monsters in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|bag o' laughs]] in the northwest corner of the town, who will flee if the player is not masked with [[musk]]. | ||
