11 Overview

44 Side Quests run parallel to the main story in Windrose. Most trigger from looted notes, diary fragments, or NPC dialogue rather than from a dedicated quest-giver, which means the player can collect multiple side-quest threads before consciously choosing to work on any one of them. Side quests in the launch build focus on buried-treasure hunts, investigation chains that overlap with main-story beats, and Swamps/Highlands lore threads that seed the Forgotten Relics artifact storyline.
