Mobs of monsters have a purpose

Thankfully Torrent Peak isn't as unassailable as it seemed at first blush. A little guide from Gamefaqs went far in pointing me in the right direction.

Now that the tower's opened up somewhat, it's clearer why there are so many monsters in the first floor's main room. This tower's main puzzle is its water wheel. A wheel that only turns while you  are pulling on the water release switch.

So you need to line up the few pegs that are on this wheel with where you need to go.

Such a thing can be time consuming. And, as terrible about hijacking jumps or knocking you into the water as the enemies in that first main room are, they do provide a pretty steady supply of dripping flesh. So as frustrating as trying to run past these creatures can be, they do serve a purpose.

Yet, other than that single, horrible room, this tower's actually kind of dull. There's a lot of climbing, but nothing really interesting aside from the water wheel. Finally, though, finding another Large Bone let me upgrade the Military Scythe, so now, it's likely to be easy as well as dull.
