Sometimes you'll meet monsters which are too powerful for your level. In this case you can continue running your head against the wall trying to defeat them immediately or you can go elsewhere and return later when you're more experienced and better equipped (if you don't forget it ).
Corak's notes about the cave should give you an impression about what's in the cave, there's only one Cyclops King but many Cyclopes. Just wait until you have the joy of fighting three of them at once .
There's an "Identify Monster" spell in the game.

Visiting Cyclops cave i found a chest of 50 K, which helped me to buy Path Finder and Mountainering spells;
now i am able to explore all area around.
I started this massive work and colonized many places.
My plan is to colonize all places on the earth surface,
then to start Caves, then Skies (if any).
Maybe future final boss is in some air hanging castle? I know not.
All 5 towns, namely F.Head, Baywatch, Swamp town, F. Height and Wildabar are dully explored.

About famous Cyclop: I have substitude of God potion, Might potion. Maybe it will increase my power?
Soon i will make kind visit of Mr. Cyclop to speak about the mussels.
....
Sadly i failed in my first steps in Swords.
Rats!!

The story continued... I colonize the world.
My members are level 10 except Dark Shade with 11 level. Nice.
During my travels I met strange well which sent me from area A4 to E4, which is desert island.
Here I met very strong monsters: Barbarians. Moreover they attacked in group of 4.
OK.
I cast Lloyd Beacon to set this location and retreat using same well.
Then boost my team: Wizard eye, Up Might, Spell points, HP, AC. Then I cast Blessed spell on my 3 spell casters. Ready. Save and Lloyd Beacon. This way I save my team from routine step-by-step.
Landing in area E4.
Important: Do NOT move far from safety well - teleport in fact!!
Barbarians are very strong, but I found more strong creature. Roc.
The same roc which attacked me in Skies in Clouds of Xeen. But more, more stronger.


The very battle:
I am ready.
One step left and 4 Barbarians appeared. OK. The distance between us is 2 steps.
Our kind dispute started: Kastore hits with Dragon breath/Fire (30/5) 3 times. Sir Canegn – Cold Ray (20/4) – 3 times. 3 Fighters hit also. Now is time Resurectra to hit by 3 Cold Ray (20/4).
These spells are the best I have.
Voilaaa. Victory. But pls do not think it was so easy as my explanation.
Ha ha ha. Try it.

OK. I am wounded but still strong. Suddenly I saw before me some motion. Save and forward.
2 steps and....small shack and before it 3 waiting Barbarians.
Brave entered the battle. Terrible, because now my defense was broken and I was forced to use Sir Canegn as healer (Power cure – 22/3), which reduced my attacks. But I am brave and even hopeless I continued fighting. Miracle! I won. And then destroyed the shack to be presented with 500 000 HP! Great.
Back to Vertigo sry to Baywatch and my levels are now 11 + 12.
Forget to say that after destroyed shack I saw.. giant Roc bird.
No, no I wisely retreat back to my base, using the well.

Hmmm...what to do?
To visit my old friend Cyclop or to visit my new friend Roc?
I know not.
