Homestead

Return to Howling Hill, meet old allies, gather materials, and begin rebuilding the camp. This arc introduces camp supplies, rebuilding tasks, and the first sense that the Greymanes can become a functioning force again.

The Face Behind the Mask

Marius sends Kliff to Glenbright Manor after losing contact with Greymanes. The manor investigation turns violent, leading to the Reed Devil and one of Chapter 3’s major boss threads.

Pioneering

After the Reed Devil arc, Kliff finds more comrades near Timberham Sawmill and expands camp operations. Keep escort and harvesting missions active so your resources grow while you continue the main story.

Quick Tips

  • Do not ignore camp missions after they unlock.
  • Follow Lantern trails carefully during the manor investigation.
  • Recruiting comrades early makes later chapters smoother.
