Veros (ベロスの町, Berosu no Machi^?, lit. "Town of Belos") is a location in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. It is the second town encountered in the game.

Geography

The quickest way to get to Veros from the town of Jova (the starting place) is to head to the right, go through the Jova Woods, cross a bridge, and enter the Veros Woods. Taking the lower path will lead you to Veros. Veros lies "underneath" Berkeley Mansion, the first mansion of the game. This mansion can be reached by heading right or left out of Veros, and going up, and then moving in the opposite direction. Heading out of Veros to the right and continuing to the right will take you across Dabi's Path and then to the Aljiba Woods. Taking the upper path takes you to the town of Aljiba. The lower path takes you to the Yuba Lake and then dead-ends at the Rover Mansion.

There is one main floor to this town, though there are a few small platforms that can be reached with stairs. When you first enter the town from the left, you need to jump over some water to a small island. Here you will find the first building. Crossing some more water, a signpost states "TURN RIGHT FOR DABI'S PATH, TURN LEFT FOR VEROS WOODS". There are several villagers walking about beyond this point. A church is the next building you will find. The next building is at the far right of the town and you need to climb stairs to enter it.

Wygol Village's proximity to the Veros Woods in the alternate timeline game Lords of Shadow, suggests that in this continuity, Wygol Village is analogous to Veros or Jova.
