11Overview2233To the Rescue is a faction quest belonging to the Scattered Embers faction in Crimson Desert. It is a nonlinear side quest introduced during Chapter 3: Howling Hill that tasks Kliff with rescuing Pailunese refugees being held captive by Bleed Bandits throughout the Pywel region. Unlike most quests, To the Rescue has no deadline and can be completed gradually as you explore.4455Quest Information6677DetailInformationQuest TypeFaction QuestFactionScattered EmbersRegionPywel (various locations)How to UnlockAvailable during Chapter 3: Howling HillTotal Refugees3288Walkthrough991010Finding Refugees11111212Pailunese refugees can be found across the Pywel region in areas controlled by Bleed Bandits.
