Valkyon Wants You
New adventurers in TERA encounter the critical “Valkyon Wants You” questline in Oblivion Woods's dense, green reaches. This expansive region lies north of the striking landscapes of Crescentia and the Valley of Titans, forming a vital trade corridor between Velika, the human capital, and the agricultural heartlands of Arcadia. The route’s importance is matched by its peril, as Devan forces have targeted supply lines, threatening the resources essential to the war effort.
Within this environment of towering trees and concealed trails, emissaries of the Valkyon Federation make contact with travellers. The Federation, a military power struggling to replenish its forces amid escalating conflict, seeks individuals of proven ability. Recognising the player’s potential, they extend an invitation to join their ranks, initiating a series of trials to assess combat skill and strategic aptitude.
As participants advance through the questline, they confront hostile creatures and navigate hazardous terrain, honing their abilities while acquiring knowledge of Valkyon’s organisational hierarchy and core principles. These challenges prepare recruits for the demands of warfare and integrate them into the faction’s operations, fostering an understanding of its influence across TERA’s fractured realms.
Beneath the surface of these trials, however, fragments of a concealed narrative emerge. Discreet allusions to internal discord within the Valkyon Federation suggest unresolved tensions or covert agendas, foreshadowing developments that may unravel the faction’s secrets later. These undercurrents imply that the player’s early involvement could intersect with broader, unresolved conflicts, though the full implications remain obscured during the initial stages.
Completion of the questline yields practical rewards and formalises the player’s affiliation with the Valkyon Federation. More significantly, it provides a foundational immersion into TERA’s geopolitical dynamics, anchoring newcomers within a complex world of rival factions and unfolding intrigue. The experience equips players with the resources and contextual knowledge necessary to navigate subsequent challenges, establishing a clear pathway into the game’s deeper narrative and strategic engagements.
