Initial version covering lore, edict text, and general sanctum mechanics
The Sanctum of Deliverance is one of six Sanctums scattered across the continent of Pywel in Crimson Desert. Like all Sanctums, it is described as a place imbued with spiritual power, reportedly created in the ancient past to restore the world and its providence. The Antumbra revere Sanctums as sacred ground because of the immense power they hold.
The Sanctum of Deliverance is associated with the Sixth Edict, which declares: "Place no faith in the false promises of salvation uttered by those who treat darkness lightly."
Sanctums become accessible after White Crow the Witch is unlocked as an NPC merchant during Chapter 5 of the main story. Once unlocked, she assigns a quest to cleanse all six Sanctums throughout the world. Players can set waypoints to any Sanctum through their quest journal.
Each Sanctum presents a unique environmental puzzle that players must solve to restore its power. The general approach involves defeating hostile enemies at the site, finding missing power cells or structural components in the surrounding area, and using Axiom Force along with Force Palm to reassemble and reactivate the structure. While every Sanctum shares this core framework, each one features its own distinct puzzle variation.
Cleansing a Sanctum rewards Abyss Artifacts, which are spent on upgrading skills, increasing character attributes, and enhancing equipment. Completing all six Sanctums fulfills the Witch's cleansing quest.
