Diff - side quests - Alabaster Dawn Wiki

11 Side quests are optional missions offered by NPCs across the Alabaster Dawn launch build. They sit outside the main chapter progression and reward gems, Essences, Ingredients, cooked dishes, key items, and occasional Divine Weapons tool-use moments. Most launch-build side quests are clustered in and around Lyhamn, the second settlement Juno reaches after the prologue, with a smaller set scattered around Koro Valley. A pair of side stories also runs in the Aurum Plains.

33 How Side Quests Work

66 Side quests are picked up by talking to NPCs; quest objectives appear in the journal alongside the main story tasks.Markers and hint intensity are adjustable in the options menu, matching the main-story setting.Side quests can be completed at any pace; none of the launch-build side quests time out or expire.Completing side quests contributes to the visible settlement rebuilding loop, with structures and decorations appearing in Lyhamn as quests close out.

88 Chronicle Subquests Around Lyhamn

1010 Four quests tied to Lyhamn's rebuild are not free-standing side quests: they are subquests of Unyielding Solidarity, the second main-plot story of Chapter 1 in the Chronicle. They appear in the Journal alongside optional content, which makes them easy to mistake for NPC side quests.
