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 showing the towering smokestacks, spinning gears, and mechanical constructs that define Delesyia's skyline.

Walkthrough
A sweeping cinematic introduces Delesyia as Kliff approaches the main gate. The city is visually distinct from every previous location: steam pipes line the streets, clockwork automatons patrol the market squares, and the buildings are a mix of industrial iron and polished stone.
Follow the quest marker through the crowded streets to the industrial district. At the meeting point, a local contact provides information about suspicious activity tied to the Abyss experiments. This conversation sets up the investigative threads that run through the rest of Chapter 11.
After the dialogue, you have free access to explore Delesyia. There are shops, crafting stations, and NPCs with side dialogue scattered throughout the city. Take time to familiarize yourself with the layout, as several upcoming quests take place within different city districts.
Tips
Delesyia has the best shops in the game at this point. Check every vendor for upgraded armor and accessories.
Speak with NPCs for lore about Delesyia's industrial revolution and its connection to Abyss research.
Activate all waypoints within the city. Chapter 11 involves frequent travel between districts.
