Overview
The City of Steel is a main quest in Crimson Desert and the first mission of Chapter 11: Truth and Reality, opening the Brave New World sub-chapter. The quest brings Kliff to Delesyia proper for the first time. Unlike the feudal settlements of Hernand or the rural landscapes of Pailune, Delesyia is a sprawling industrial metropolis powered by steam engines, clockwork mechanisms, and technology derived from Abyss research. The journey begins with a cinematic approach showcasing the towering smokestacks, spinning gears, and mechanical constructs that define Delesyia's skyline.

Key Objectives
Arrive at the Delesyia border checkpoint. Follow the road east from the previous chapter's endpoint. A cutscene triggers as you approach the industrial outskirts, showing the massive scale of Delesyia's infrastructure.
Pass through the gate. Speak with the border guards. After a brief exchange, Kliff is granted entry. A fast travel point activates at the gate.
Explore the central district. Walk through the heart of the city and observe the mechanical workshops, steam-powered carts, and Delesyian citizens. Several interactive NPCs provide optional dialogue about the region's history and culture.
Meet the contact. Navigate to the marked building in the city center. A cutscene introduces a key Delesyian figure who provides Kliff with background on the region's political situation and its connection to the broader conflict.
Notes
This quest is primarily narrative and exploratory with no combat.
Speak with NPCs in the city for hints about side content and faction quests available in the Delesyia region.
The vendor near the central plaza sells advanced equipment, including some of the best armor available at this point in the game.
Delesyia stands apart from every other region on the continent of Pywel; its streets are lined with clockwork machinery and pilotable combat mechs that dwarf anything found in Hernand.
