Norvallen Front The Norvallen Front is a theater of the Crystal War in " " . It encompasses north - central Quon along its east coast . The Orcish Hosts have chosen Norvallen as their headquarters , placing themselves between their Dark Kindred masters in the Northlands and the Alliance of Altana that opposes them . The front contains most of the modern - day Norvallen region . Zones . Jugner Forest . Jugner Forest is a thick woodland found southeast of the Kingdom of San d ' Oria . Following the Alliance ' s defeat at the Battle of La Theine , the traditional road to Jugner was lost and San d ' Oria was forced to seek an alternative route to the front . The Kingdom therefore established a shortcut through King Ranperre ' s Tomb to connect the forest to East Ronfaure directly . Though San d ' Oria regards the forest and surrounding lands as the Kingdom ' s territory , it has not maintained control in the face of invading Orcs . Following the slaughter of three hundred knights at the Battle of Jugner , the village of La Vaule in the southwest was overrun and converted into a stronghold for the Beastmen . Emboldened by their victory , the Orcs erected barricades throughout Jugner to frustrate Alliance troops . Eastbound travelers are therefore forced to detour through the Vunkerl Inlet in the southeast to reach nearby Batallia Downs . A Cavernous Maw links the forest to itself twenty years in the future . Well - prepared wayfarers can also reach this war - torn woodland by means of the Recall - Jugner spell . Laisavie X Berlends , an Elvaan paladin , leads the Silver Fox Archers in San d ' Oria ' s campaign to reclaim the forest . She approaches battle more as a ranger , however , wielding a bow and loosing arrows across multiple enemies with remarkable speed . Even so , Laisavie does not hesitate to draw her sword and demonstrates a range of knightly techniques , including Invincible , when pressed . In turn , the Orcish Hosts assigned the dragoon Steelbiter Gudrud and the Bloodwing Impalers to seize control of this area . Batallia Downs . Batallia Downs is a depleted timberland east of Jugner Forest . With its natural resources stripped , Batallia is reduced to a series of bare hills in the shadow of the Achaque Mountains . A route through the these northern bluffs leads to the Beaucedine Glacier while bridges connect to Rolanberry Fields in the south and the Grand Duchy of Jeuno in the southeast . As the only ground between the Dark Kindred and the Duchy , Batallia is a critical battlefield for the Alliance of Altana . The Everbloom Hollow runs below the downs . Its winding tunnels reach as far as East Ronfaure . A Cavernous Maw also links Batallia to itself twenty years in the future . The Royal Army of San d ' Oria dedicates the Knights of the Crimson Wolf to operations in this area . Their leader , an Elvaan dark knight named Mieuseloir B Enchelles , siphons life from his enemies with terrifying ease . In turn , the Orcish Hosts assigned the sorcerer Dirtyhanded Gochakzuk and the Gravemaker Mesmerizers to seize control of this area . La Vaule . La Vaule was once a village in a secluded valley south of Jugner Forest . The majestic monastery at its center was a popular destination for pious San d ' Orians . It has been occupied by Orcs and transformed into their headquarters in the wake of the Kingdom ' s military defeats in the region . The Orcish Emperor , Bloodcrown Brradhod , is rumored to visit this new settlement . In the future this area is renamed Davoi . Everbloom Hollow . Everbloom Hollow is a large network of subterranean burrows spanning northern Quon . It enables surreptitious travel between the Ronfaure Front and Batallia Downs . The Vunkerl Inlet can be reached from Everbloom as well . Control of the hollow is much desired by Beastmen and Alliance members alike . The Eldieme Necropolis . The Eldieme Necropolis is an ancient Elvaan burial ground , originally called the Coveffe Barrows , that lies beneath much of Batallia Downs . In better times , terminally ill San d ' Orians would spend their last days in Eldieme . It has since become choked with restless undead and been adopted by the Republic of Bastok as a supply depot . Refugees denied passage through Jeuno ' s gates also seek shelter here . Players wishing to undertake the path of a Scholar would do well to visit this place . San d ' Oria ' s Temple Knights are responsible for the defense of the Necropolis . Under the command of Febrenard C Brunnaut , an Elvaan white mage , they use curative magic to support each other while banishing their Orcish foes . In turn , the Orcish Hosts assigned Battlemaster Vatgit and the Clan Longtooth Pillagers to seize control of this area .
