Beside you, among the leaves, lies a notched iron sword. It is all you have.

Explore Zafias, the first land of Valenreach: a village in need of help, a forest overrun by goblins, an abandoned castle and a mountain few come back down from.

Enemies warn you before their heavy blow, and guarding in time matters. Level up, spend your points, cook, forge your weapons and gear up piece by piece.
