Description: In their pursuit of the missing Dominant and Lostwing's Bearers, Clive and Cid must infiltrate a nearby Sanbreguois fortress now teeming with Waloeder soldiers. Fortunately for both of them, Clive knows of a secret entrance. |
Headwind will start as soon as you enter Caer Norvent during The Dead of Night quest. Clive (you), Cid, and Torgal will be on a team and infiltrate the Caer Norvent castle.
If you played through the Eikonic Challenge in the demo, this is where it starts.

Find the Captives Go inside and head to the dungeon to look for the captives. You will see that the captives were not in the cells. |
1b |
Open the door with the help of Cid and head up the stairs. Defeat all the enemies inside the room to proceed. |
1c |
Squeeze through the gap on the window to avoid the enemies behind the door. You can use Animal Instinct and let our good boy Torgal show you the spot. |
1d |
From this point, there will be two ways to get to the next area. You can either use the path below, use the stairs on the right, or you can take on both paths. If you want to take it easy, it's better if to choose only one path. If you want to get as much EXP and resources as you can, clear them both and kill all the enemies you will encounter! |

Defeat Royal Tognvaldr* Any path you choose will lead to an open area where you have to fight Royal Tognavaldr. Defeat him before you can proceed to the next area. ▶ How to Beat Royal Rognvaldr |
