Find a Way Out

The Prologue begins during the party conversation at the Graveyard's Keep Tavern. This sequence serves as a tutorial for basic Movement and Environmental Interactions.

Continue forward and you will eventually also receive a tutorial pop-up on how to access your Journal and Quests logs in order to see your current and completed objectives. This is accessible at any time. You may access it by clicking on the "Journal" button located on the bottom right of your screen below the compass. Aside from Quests, your journal will also provide information on Factions, relationships, and will keep a log of your Adventure progress and enemies.

Enter the open cell gate to the right. It will be facing north. This is where you will trigger a Crawling tutorial. Crawl through the hole in the wall by clicking on the other side.  Loot the basket directly in front of you to obtain your first light source, a Torch. Drag the torch to the primary slot to equip it. Keep an eye out on the torch duration, as it will eventually deplete. To check the duration of a Light Source, open your inventory, hover over the Item, and press "ALT" for more information. This applies to any Item you want to find more information on.

Reach the end of the corridor to prompt the Interactive Elements Tutorial. Interactive Elements are highlighted in the game. Interact with the highlighted section of the wall to clear a path out. Crawl through the hole again to leave the prison and enter the next area.

Leave the Cave

This will prompt the Climbing and Jumping tutorial. Click on your destination to Climb. These abilities are also affected by a character's Strength and proficiency with Athletics. This will determine Jump Distance or how many cells a character can climb or drop, making hard-to-reach chests easier for some characters over others. The tutorial states that although a character may not have the ability to jump across certain areas to reach some chests, there is usually an Alternate Path that can be taken to reach the chest. The chest in this area also has an Alternative path. Climb and jump over the rocks to get behind the wall of the chest.  When you reach the wooden pillar, interact with it to push it over and create a path to the other side. This will bring you to the wall behind the chest. Interact with the highlighted block in the wall to remove it and crawl through the hole again to reach the chest.  Loot the chest to obtain a Potion of Healing.

Get Rid of the Bandits!

Crawl back through the hole and interact with the highlighted unstable wall to the left to push it over. The bandits will be on the other side. Pushing the wall over will cause the structure to fall and crush them. You have now gotten rid of the bandits.  Enter the area to trigger the Looting and Inventory Management tutorial. This is a reminder to keep an eye on the overall total weight of the items you are carrying as this will affect the character and slow them down- a Condition called Encumbered. Your weight gauge is indicated by the Encumbrance bar. To save space in your inventory, stackable Items can be grouped together to only take up one space. A tutorial on stackable items will come after the Looting and Inventory Management tutorial to further explain. 

Recover Your Equipment From the Chest & Open the Door

Once you dismiss the tutorial, drop down from the wooden platform and loot the chest in front of you to recover your equipment. Interact with the chest and select "Loot all." Open the cell gates to complete this section and return to the cutscene in the Tavern.

Crownbearer's Intuition

After the Legacy Council meeting, travel to the place that the crownbearer is being drawn to and search for a gem. Prepare for your journey by clearing your inventory and selling any unwanted items to clear up some space. Take a long rest if needed. When you are ready leave the area and Fast travel to the "Possible Gem Location" far southwest on the map. You will probably encounter a few battles on the way to the location. 

Once you are at the Possible Gem Location, explore the are in Cautious Mode. Stay to the right with the interactable tree going north and you will come across a lootable basket. It will contain an unidentified Potion and some Ammunition. Continue down the path west until you reach the bridge to the Castle.

Enter the Castle's Courtyard

Heading left of the bridge first (south) will eventually lead you to a campfire and a cutscene introduction. If you decide to talk to him, you will need to undergo an Insight check. His name is Talbut the Grey. He will mention that he deals with the guard captain and exchanges information for hunting permission. He will also mention that there will be a ghost dwarf in the area. You will need to locate him to activate and complete the secondary mission, Angbi's Bones. A new waypoint will be added so you will be able to travel to this point, the Pond when you open your map. 

Before you leave the area, loot the basket found at the outside corner of the cabin. It will be on the west side. Be careful when lingering around him as you can trigger a battle sequence against him and his wolves. This basket will contain A Pile of Bones needed for your secondary quest later on. The box basket outside will have a Scroll, x4 Ration Pouch, and x4 Torch along with more Ingredients.  Go ahead and lock pick his cabin and loot the crates inside for some Ingredients and Scrolls. The Library shelf will contain a Potion of Healing and more ingredients. 

Another notable location is the northern area of the Castle. There will be a campfire rest point for use should you need to take a rest and recover. There will also be a lootable basket within the vicinity of the campfire. This will contain A Sapphire, A Scroll, Ingredients, Animal Figurines, Ration Pouch, Exquisite Robe, and coins.   

• Also North of the castle, past the campfire while keeping to the left is the Cemetery where you will find Angbi Kramsson the Ghost Dwarf. You could ask him for information about the castle and also begin the Quest, Angbi's Bones. 
• The third set of bones is located in a basket in the area near him. The second set is from the basket we came across at the corner of Talbut the Grey's cabin. The first set will be within the Castle Courtyard. It will be in a basket located in one of the rooms of the Keep. The courtyard can be accessed through the crypt in the cemetery as well, but a battle cannot be avoided. Once all three are obtained, you can return to Caer Cyflen at a later time and return the Bones to Halman Summer of the Antiquarians to complete the secondary quest. 

Loot the Cemetary area for more valuable gems and Ingredients. The crypt will also lead to another route into the castle keep. 

When entering the Castle's Courtyard you may enter directly through the bridge or through the crypt in the cemetery. Either route will lead to battle. The first sequence will end in a cutscene against the Skeleton guard leader. Fail any of the checks and you will enter another battle. If entering through the main bridge, the cutscene will take you out and you will still have to enter through the cemetery crypt.

This area connects to the castle courtyard. Loot the baskets in the area. You will mostly find basic gems, Ingredients, and coins, but one of them will contain a Wand. When you are done, to the Northwest corner there will be a highlighted area in front of a drain. This is where you can leave the area and enter the castle. 

Get to the Next Floor

Once you are in the castle, you will find yourself in an empty dark room.  Behind you, in the northeastern direction of the room, there will be an interactable book on the bookshelf. Interact with it to trigger the secret wall passage to open next to the doors. Before you leave, you can take a flight of stairs in the room going up. This will lead to a lootable bookshelf that contains more gems, Scrolls, and a Rapier. Approach the open passage to enter a Battle against the Zombies. When you have completed the battle and looted the area, continue. Light the lamps in the area. Open the north set of doors to move on and prepare for another Zombie battle. 

• Loot the area when you are done. Aside from the regular items, you will also find a silver chalice. Open the cell gates toward the northern side of the room and you will find some valuable items. The first cell on the left will contain a Sapphire,  a Gold Locket, Jeweled Chalice, Ivory Statuette, Bronze Crown, Animal Figurines, and izzaria's Journal. In the main area, where the glowing table is, there are some lootable pots that will contain a Sapphire, Velvet Mask, Jeweled Bracelet, Ivory Statuette, Embroidered Silk Robe, and another one of Lizzaria's Journals. The crate under the flight of stairs will contain some Ingredients.  The Library Shelf will contain Acid, a Scroll, and more Ingredients. Loot the nightstand at the Southwest corner bedroom for a Blood Daffodil, an Amethyst, and another piece of Lizzaria's Journal. Double-check your map to see any unlooted baskets. 

Take a Long rest here. When you're done with the area follow the glowing dot on your compass and head to the northeast corner up the stairs. Activate the switch next to the cell gate and go through. Enter the highlighted area to get to the ladder that leads to the next floor.

She will recommend speaking with Aksha. You will be back on the ground floor when you end the cutscene. Return to the upper floors to continue looting. When you are through, head to the southwest corner and climb to the upper level. There will be a broken wall to the left that will lead to a grand staircase area. This will lead to another ghoul battle. Light any lamps when possible and keep yourself lit. 

When the battle is complete head back up the staircases and this time head to the left. Get past the gap and loot the basket next to the short flight of stairs. continue to the dining room area and there will be a large set of doors to the left again. This will trigger a cutscene with the Vampire, Aksha where you will have to pass some checks. She will lead you to the Minor Gate that will be your route to the master.

Loot the bed to obtain a Sapphire and a Primed Rapier. Loot the Nightstand for Aksha's Journal, Doom Gem, Ruby,  Unidentified Potion, Silver Brooch, and Magnificient Wand. Identify the Wand to find out its properties. 

When you are done with the area, go through the set of doors to proceed to the Minor gate. Use the minor gate to teleport to the next area.

Find a Way out of the Maze

A new Waypoint has been added: Teleporter. Approach the area with Cautious Mode and disarm the traps on the area. Open all available doors in the area. Loot before proceeding. On the ground, you will find A Scroll of Fireball, Adventurer's Journal, Handy Haversack, Precious Ring, Wand of Lightning Bolts, and coins. 

Choice: Follow the Adventurer's Journal

Follow the Adventurer's Journal to help you out of the Maze "Once we find the stairs we need to go down, then go up. After that she told us to turn right, go up then go down one more time." Follow this sequence to help with the rune puzzle. 

Notice the mechanical switches on the floor and take one character to activate the switch while the rest go through the cell gates leading to the room full of room symbols. From inside the room of runes, interact with the items on the south wall to move them aside and have the last character enter through the gated room and crawl through the now revealed hole. Have each character stand on one rune symbol each to reveal the next teleportation space. The two revealed spaces will take you to the stairs or the arrow pointing left. Follow the journal and first choose the teleportation space with the stairs symbol. 

Despite the journal instructions, you will need to take a few extra steps. The sequence is as follows: Stairs, ↓, ←, ↑, →, ↑ ,↓ In that order. This will allow all the arrows on the rune platform to light so you can continue.   

Once you take the stairs, Observe the plaque on the wall. After the cutscene, interact with it again to obtain a Depleted Rune. Crawl through to the cell area. Interact with the loot on the ground to trigger a short battle with the ghost. Loot the area again when you are done and you will obtain Adventurer's Notes, Gold Dragon Statuette, Remarkable Arrows, and more Ingredients.

Exit the cell area and enter the Dark space directly north of the cell. You will have to crawl through. This space will also have two teleportation spaces. Before teleporting out, loot the crate in the divided section of the room. Now choose the teleporter with the ↓ down symbol. This will take you to another area full of teleporters. Once you use the down arrow teleporter take the one with the arrow that points to the ← left on the higher floor. Disable the traps in your way. There will be two teleporter spaces in the area and the party members will have separated. Take the character within the center cell gate with the purple glow and trigger the switch inside the cell to keep that gate open. Disable the trap.

Gather the party members and take them to the ↑ up arrow. This will take you to the first area where you encountered the ghost. Return to the room with the teleporters and this time there will only be one available to use. Take the → right arrow teleporter. Take the ↑ up arrow again and then go back and take the ↓ down arrow. That will be the final arrow to light.

Return to the main rune platform with all the arrows. All arrows and symbols will now be lit. Interact with it to continue. This will take you to the next area nearby and will trigger a battle.

Loot the area then continue.  Head south to the middle rooms and you will encounter a door with a switch. Activate the switch next to the door to continue. There will be basic armor to loot on the ground here as well.

This location is also reachable through climbing. Entering this area will trigger another battle with an unknown creature. Loot after completing the battle and obtain Magnificent Leather Armor, more Adventurer's Notes, Acid, and other sellable items. You now also have access to the rune switch on the floor after he is defeated. While leaving one party member on the switch, take the others through the now open cell gates directly south. You can now go down and have one party member activate the switch in the center room to free the last character and have him join the rest.  You can now also all climb down to the next dark area with the flights of stairs and red carpet. 

Head up to the second floor. Heading immediately through the first door that leads to the darkroom will take you a step closer to meet with the master. Head to the other door if you want to continue looting and exploring.

Heading through the first door on the left that leads to a completely dark room will lead to a battle against more Skeletons- including a Skeletal Sorcerer. Complete the battle sequence and loot the area. This will give you access to the next set of doors through the room that will lead to the Master. Having any unsuccessful checks will lead to one more battle sequence against Master Mardracht and his minions. 

When the battle is complete, loot the area. You will find more Scrolls, Magnificent Bracers, and some ingredients. Enter one of the highlighted areas to exit the area. The Teleporter on the left will take you to a new part of the Castle - the Solar Tower where you can continue to loot bookshelves and gain the Poisoner's Kit if you haven't already.
