Slewse provides access to a watergate which must be opened in order to visit the Tower of the Moon. The water gate is hidden in the northwest corner of the village and can only be opened using the Floodgate key.

Don Calico also lives in Slewse and can make Flowing dresses if given the Celestial skein and Subtle Shuttle. This piece of equipment is the de facto best for the Princess of Moonbrooke.
