Man, I really wish they finished this :(

There is an apparent mistake in Special Lever 2 for Regbuilding Colony 6. It says defeat Earth Nebula at Sap Cave. I was never able to find a Sap Cave, but I was able to defeat Caris Nebula at the brog lake just before you get to Nopon Arch.

Just looked at the map. Sap Cave is shown right next to the lake I mentioned. Now the only mystery is Earth Nebula listed on the page versus the Caris Nebulae I killed. They were on the path next to the lake, pond, or whatever it was.
