Bloomwood Ranch is a ranch where the Goldleaf Merchant Guild's livestock are managed. It is a popular hub for animal trading, and its enhanced security features allow players to board their animals there for a fee. The ranch is staffed by herders and merchants who oversee the daily operations of buying, selling, and caring for livestock.
Bloomwood Ranch is situated in the southern part of the Hernand region, near the bridge connecting to the Equinsher Saddlery. The Anvil Riverside Terrace is accessible from the ranch, and Fort Anvil can be seen from the surrounding area. A three-way intersection to the southwest marks a junction between several key paths. Springtide Mill is located to the north.

Bloomwood Ranch has an anvil that players can use to reinforce their gear. Reinforcing equipment at this anvil provides a free defensive bonus: +6 defense, +10, +4, and +4 bonus defense, for a total of +24 across all reinforcement tiers.
This reinforcement costs no resources and is highly recommended as a preparation step before challenging difficult encounters, especially overwhelming beings and other late-game bosses. Visit the ranch and reinforce your armor before heading into any fight where you expect to take heavy damage.
Missing Companion: A main quest that involves events at the ranch. Willian asks for help finding his lost sheep, leading to a search through the surrounding countryside.
Secrets Hidden in the Dark: A main quest connected to the ranch area, involving investigation of dark happenings near the ranch grounds.
Bounty Notice: Alessio: A faction quest available from the ranch, tasking players with hunting down the outlaw Alessio.
A Sealed Abyss Artifact can be found just west of Bloomwood Ranch, near the bridge connecting to the Equinsher Saddlery. It sits atop a rock pile at a small shrine where three paths split between Anvil Riverside Terrace and Equinsher Saddlery. The challenge associated with this artifact is called Sliding Down the Slope. Completing the challenge unlocks the artifact for permanent stat boosts.

Willian is the child you help during the early-game Missing Companion quest at Bloomwood Ranch. Once that quest concludes, he stays in the middle of the field where the quest wraps up, making him easy to find on repeat visits. Maxing his reputation to 100 unlocks lambs for purchase at your ranch from Ben.
Willian's preferred gifts are bugs. Insects in general work, including the bees you can sweep up from the hives at the Pollengarth Apiary. Bring a Beekeeping Suit to shrug off the stings, grab a stack of bees, and hand them over to Willian in batches. This is by far the fastest path to the lamb unlock.
For the full ranch reputation loop covering the other baby creatures (pigs, goats, calves), see the Ranching article.
