Alter Aeon FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

FAQ 6.5 - Where do I get gold?

At low levels, you can occasionally loot gold from defeated monsters, but
a more profitable activity by far is to sacrifice the corpses of the
creatures you defeat.  The gods look favorably on players who rid the
world of corpses.  Just use the 'sac corpse' command to sacrifice one.

You may also find gold in treasure chests, in dungeons or crypts, or as
rewards from quests.  You may also be able to sell equipment or supplies
at shops, or trade with other players.  At higher levels, you may be able
to sell things using the 'auction' command.
