Editing Shhwonk Fortress

[[File:ThwompPM2.png|thumb|The thwomp that hosts the quiz.]]
'''Shhwonk Fortress''' is an underground fortress in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' where the [[Moon Stone]] and the [[Sun Stone]] are kept. It is beyond [[Petalburg]] and a few smaller stone fortresses. The Stone Keys found inside are used to open the pipe to [[Hooktail Castle]].

Long ago, Shhwonk Fortress was a place of relief from monster invasions for Petalburg residents, but more recently it has been invaded by monsters and traversing to the ruins was recently outlawed without permission from Mayor [[Kroop]]. It is unknown when the fortress was built, but at least one of the fortresses located in the path to it is estimated by [[Goombella]] to be about a thousand years old.

Before [[Mario]] is allowed entry, he must participate in the [[65th Trivia Quiz-Off]] hosted by a [[Thwomp]] guarding an entrance pipe. After passing the quiz or defeating four [[Cleft]]s (if Mario fails the quiz), Mario is granted access into the fortress, which is infested with [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]]. After collecting the [[Sun Stone]] and the [[Moon Stone]], Mario must fight a [[Gold Fuzzy]] and its [[Fuzzy Horde]] in order to exit the fortress.

{{construction|section=y}}
Mario and Goombella make their way into the entrance with a [[Save Block]]. They walk up to a stony [[Thwomp]] on a pedestal and it wakes up, surprised that Mario and Goombella are the first visitors to come to the fortress and find the stone keys. However, the Thwomp does not let them pass unless they compete against it in the [[65th Trivia Quiz-Off]]. After the quiz, the Thwomp reveals the [[Warp Pipe]] and the pair can proceed.

Mario and Goombella arrive in the sewers via the Warp Pipe where the ground is flooded with water. The player can spot a red ? Block that contains the [[Multibounce]] badge. The duo can either go left or right to collect the two stone keys. Both corridors have two [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]] along the way to the keys. When they reach the end rooms to collect the Sun and Moon Stones, Fuzzies appear and battle them.

After collecting the stone keys, the duo come back to the entrance to find a [[Gold Fuzzy]], which becomes angry at Mario and Goombella for trespassing its place. An optional boss battle commences and the Gold Fuzzy summons out a [[Fuzzy Horde|horde of Fuzzies]] to outnumber them. After defeating the leader and the horde, they can exit out of the fortress.

==Enemies==
*[[Bald Cleft]]
*[[Bristle]]
*[[Cleft]] (if Mario fails the quiz)

==Area Tattles==
*"''This is Shhwonk Fortress. Suspicious statue...I'm pretty sure it's a [[Thwomp]] bust. Hey, I just remembered something I read about this place in a book! Whenever the villagers were confronted with a monster, they'd hide in this fortress...I guess there's a little bit of history everywhere you look, huh, [[Mario]].''"
*"''We're in Shhwonk Fortress. My shoes are totally soaked through now...Just great. Plus, it's dark, and cramped, and it smells totally bad... This place is not cool, [[Mario]].''"
*"''There sure are a lot of [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]] living here in Shhwonk Fortress...I saw one a minute ago, and I thought it was a ghost! I totally hate dark places...''"
*"''We're in Shhwonk Fortress. All this water has made this place a little cold...I wouldn't mind getting out of here for some fresh air soon, you know what I mean?''"
*"''All this moisture makes this place really moldy-smelling. And what's that other stink? Is that what wet [[Fuzzy]] smells like? I think I'm gonna barf.''"
*"''We're in Shhwonk Fortress. This room is damp and moldy, too. Like every other one. Jeepers creepers...I just wanna see the sun again. Is that so wrong?''"
