Beholder is easy. For ANY Bard with a drum and the speed song. Just run,
and don't stop. You may get attacked by 10 things but you'll outrun them
all. There is no getting lost. From East Karana just stay right, from
Runnyeye just stay left. Once in Runnyeye, from Beholder stay left, from
Misty Thicket, stay right. Nothing could be easier. I get bound to
Rivervale and go hunt in Paw, simply because Beholder simply is no threat
to our class.

Do watch out for the rare Evil Eye . . . he might have time to charm you.
