Overview
Return Home is the final quest of Chapter 6: Cracks in the Shield in Crimson Desert. The time has come to reclaim your homeland. Determined and ready, Kliff heads to the Beighen Shrine where an informant is waiting. This quest bridges Chapter 6 and Chapter 7, and speaking with your comrades immediately starts Chapter 7.
Walkthrough
Speak with Your Comrades
Navigate back to the Greymane camp and approach your companions at the tent area. A cinematic sequence triggers when you interact with them. This concludes Chapter 6 and begins Chapter 7.
WARNING: Prepare Before Talking to Your Comrades
Chapter 7 takes you to a new region for an extended period. Once you speak with your comrades and the cutscene plays, you cannot return to Hernand until Chapter 7 is complete. Make all your preparations before initiating the conversation.
Chapter 7 Preparation Checklist
Grilled Meat: Stock at least 100 pieces, ideally 200+. Hunt deer for raw meat and cook at any vendor's pot. This is the most important preparation step.
Equipment: Upgrade your armor and weapons to the highest refinement level you can afford. The Tauria Curved Sword and Blackwing Leather Armor from Chapter 5 are still strong choices.
Side Quests: Complete any unfinished faction quests or exploration objectives in Hernand. You will not have access to this area for a while.
Abyss Cores: If you have unspent Core Blueprints, visit the witch to engrave them before leaving.
Supplies: Buy Palmer Pills and any other consumables you can find. Vendors in the new region may not carry the same stock.
Story Context
Return Home brings Chapter 6 full circle. The chapter began with bad news (the Black Bears attacking Calphade) and ends with the Greymanes heading toward something personal: the quest to reclaim their homeland. The Calphade siege is over, but the conspiracy uncovered in Chapters 5 and 6 means the real fight is just beginning.
Tips
Do not talk to your comrades until you are fully prepared. There is no going back once Chapter 7 starts.
200+ Grilled Meat sounds excessive, but Chapter 7 has several difficult fights with limited resupply opportunities.
If you have been ignoring the Abyss Artifacts system, now is a good time to upgrade. The power boost matters in Chapter 7.
