Village of Crag
The Village of Crag is the first area encountered in Chapter 5 (therefore making it Chapter 5-1) in Super Paper Mario. It is the home of the Cragnons.
Despite its primitive appearance, the Village of Crag has stereo systems, Cragvision sets, and other modern electronic devices, though all are made from rocks.
Chapter 5-1 has many items that are either normally hard to find or are unobtainable anywhere else. There is an Itty Bits store in the village; it is the only place where Mario can obtain Mild Cocoa Beans, a common recipe ingredient. He can also buy Keel Mangoes from the store. The Howzit's Shop in the village sells Primordial Fruit. With the exception of one of the Chapters in Castle Bleck, Bone Meat Cuts are exclusive to the chapter, as it is the only place where Mario can find Muths.
Chapter 5-1
The first time Mario entered the Village of Crag, he found himself suspended in mid-air; the Light Blue Door opened directly into the air. After a humorous little remark from Tippi, the plumber fell to the ground.
It just so happened that two Cragnons were pleading to the Big Rock Who Watches (possibly a reference to the Player), wanting their race to be saved, directly below Mario. Believing Mario to have been sent by the Rock, they welcomed him and briefed him on what was happening: the Floro Sapiens were capturing Cragnons! As if on cue, some Cragnons were shortly thereafter captured, and the chase began.
Mario's chasing of the Floro Sapiens led him through a rocky, barren area infested with Putrid Piranhas, Muths, and interestingly Moon Clefts. In the end, after solving Cragnon puzzles Mario and his party reached Mount Crag.
