Lanson is one of few locations that sells [[Fading Jenny]], an herb that produces the same effects as the [[Fade]] spell. This item is useful in retrieving the [[Bottomless Pot]] in [[Edina|Edina castle]].

A nun has been placed in the town and there is a [[List of recruitable monsters in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|wandering cureslime]] hiding in the grove of trees, but beyond that Lanson has not been changed much in the conversion to HD. The desert leading to [[Gaia's Navel]] has been reprogrammed to only be home to weaker monsters, however, likely a player convenience when returning from that dungeon's solo mission.
