World and Travel

A star fell over the Sea of Clouds, and islands grew where its light landed. You walk, climb and sail across them from level 1 to level 120. Six towns keep you supplied, and each land has hunting grounds for a band of levels. Any field near your level works. You are never forced down one road.

The lands, in level order

Each land also has a boss lair for its guardian. See Creatures and Bosses and Boss Lairs.

Cloudmere Lagoon, at the end of Lanternport's wharf, is a calm cove with no creatures. It is where you go to fish: Cloud Angling.

Roads between places

• Doors and gates. Step into a glowing door to cross to the next map. A door's label names the place it leads to.
• Ropes, ladders, vines and light beams. Climb them to reach the upper platforms. The Controls guide has the keys.
• Walking. The Dawnlight Isles lead on to Lanternport on foot, through Mossglade Ruins and the Docks. The Farside lies past the Shardfall Expanse, and Anchorfall hangs off Lastlight Bastion.
• Sky-ships. Emberforge and Skyspire Citadel have no road from Lanternport. Every town has a Sky-Ship Captain who flies to others for a fare in lumens.

The World Map

Open the World Map from the menu. Tap a land, then a place.

• Reading the world view. Lands run left to right in level order, and side lands hang under the land you reach them from. The Kindled Star stands high at the far right and Beneath the Clouds low down beside it.
• PLACE shows what lives there: creatures with level and EXP, NPCs and quests.
• ROUTE shows the way from where you stand, stop by stop. Tap TRAVEL and your hero walks it.
• The tabs EXPLORE, QUESTS, SHOPS and BOSSES pin what you are looking for. BOSSES shows lairs and the clock of each Crowned giant.
• A place whose creatures are 10 or more levels above you is marked as hard before you go.

The Wayfinder lists every person by place and walks you to the nearest one for what you want, such as potions, a Party Quest or storage.

Scrolls and stones

Return ScrollReturn Scroll: DawnhollowReturn Scroll: LanternportTeleport Stone

Item	Where it takes you	Where you get it
Return Scroll	The nearest town by road, from wherever you stand	General stores
City scrolls, one per town	That town, once you have walked there yourself	General stores of that town and the towns before it
Teleport Stone	Any place on the World Map, beside its NPC or at its door	The Cash Shop, the login calendar (two a week), and some rewards

• A Return Scroll does nothing in a town and is kept.
• Scrolls and stones refuse inside a challenge run (a Party Quest, dungeon, raid, lair or the Echo Tower). Leave the run first.
• The World Map warns you before a stone takes you somewhere far above your level, then spends one stone.
• The tracker, the quest log and the World Map offer TELEPORT when the next step is on another map and you carry stones. A setting lets AUTO-QUEST spend stones on long trips by itself.
• Secret climbs, Party Quest rooms and dungeon floors cannot be reached by stone. See Secret Climbs.

When you fall

You lose a little EXP toward your current level. Never a level, never an item. You wake in the town that map sends you home to, usually the one in its own land. A scroll or a sky-ship gets you back out quickly.

The Unlit lands

Three new hubs open above and below the clouds. See The Unlit.
