Hidden area on Captain Flynt's ship

[toroid]

There's a walled-off section with a few chests and a lever you can interact with (that does nothing) in Flynt's boss fight area, at the opposite end from where Flynt's throne is. You can get to it by jumping over the wall, but then there's no way to get out without jumping overboard.

The question is, how are you supposed to reach this area, and what does the lever do? The jump you have to make to get over the wall doesn't seem like the intended route.

You get to interact with that area - Lilith has a mission for you that will see you end up there. It all starts in Frostburn Canyon and Incinerator Clayton.
Speak to Lilith. She inspired a cult and is not too sure about it all. Incinerator Clayton will explain further.

Thanks. I just started playing again after taking a break for a few years and I don't remember ever finding this area legitimately without jumping the wall.

You can, or you can just ignore him. Once done, you can even come back out sticking to the right side and jump overboard and land outside of the bandit camp below where you entered it.

You'll sacrifice a midget there.
