## Hints and Suggestions

* **Summoning the Secret Boss**:
	+ Secret Boss: Valkyrie Casja
	+ Summoning method: She can be summoned by passing through the suppression field while carrying any relic fragment 4 times. The fragment, of course is reset inside the chamber, but the puzzle can be solved after summoning the valkyrie.
	+ Rewards: 2000 Points to Score.
* **Solving the puzzle**
	+ The relics behind the suppression fields are to be inserted into the shaper relic to open the barrier containing the crystal.
	+ There are 4 suppression fields: two behind the relic fragments, and two closing the relic chamber of the cavern. The best way is to wait for the Beam Device to point the energy at the button which disables the field. When the field is disabled, move into the chamber with the crystal and wait for the field to be disabled when the beam device points towards the field closing the relic chamber.
	+ Repeat the steps for all the relic fragments.
	+ To maximize the score, it is best for only one or two freelancers to solve the puzzles while the others fight the enemies.
	+ Once all the relic fragments are inserted, the barrier is unlocked for the crystal to be destroyed. Destroying the crystal unlocks a loot chest.
* It is always recommended that there be 4 Freelancers in the team to do this event.
* It is still possible to complete this event with only 1 Freelancer, however.
* If the Rift at the center of the event opens, the stability collapses, but the score multiplier doubles. Destroying it will bring back the stability and the score multiplier will return to what it was at the beginning of the event.
* Defeat enemies with armor such as the Dominion Storm Brute, Dominion Frost Brute, Turrets, and Dominion Fury using Armor Buster, Acid, or at least Fire type Damage.
* Defeat enemies with shields such as Dominion Fury, Dominion Ash Valkyrie, Dominion Frost Valkyrie, Dominion Storm Valkyrie, or Dominion Elementalist using Shield Breaker, Lightning, or at least Ice type Damage.
* Enemies with regular (red) health can be defeated using any damage type.

## Trivia (May Contain Spoilers)

* Collecting Cymatic Notes of any rarity (color) will stabilize the Freelancer’s javelin.
* Defeating the Secret Boss marked by  target enemy icon will not provide any loot drops. However, it will directly give 2,000 points (before multiplier is applied).
* Casja’s Forge was the third event released during the original run of Echoes of Reality.
* Oddly, Casja’s Forge is not a part of the Opening Move challenges, which was available during the start of Echoes of Reality.

## Briefing

The Freelancer flies out of the Pocket of Stable Reality in Armas Bay to reach Casja's Forge, or use a Gating Device to reach somewhere near it.

* **Faye**: "You’re close to another crystal."

### Investigate Area

The Freelancer mut explore the area to find out more about how to stop the Echo of Reality.

* **Faye**: "I’m detecting a Shaper relic in pieces here."
* **The Freelancer**: "A Cataclysm starting inside a Cataclysm?"
* **Faye**: "There’s no sign of one. I suspect Vara doesn’t know much about silencing relics. It’s not what she does."
* **The Freelancer**: "But the Dominion does break and manipulate relics all the time."
* **Faye**: "In Vara’s mind, messing up a relic is how you get results. Silence it to end whatever she started here."

## In Expedition

The Freelancer must find a way to silence the unstable relic by collecting the fragments and inserting it into the volatile relic.

### Fragments Delivered

There is nothing special about this event. It is a simple relic silencing event with suppression fields in it. The Freelancer silences the volatile relic.

* **Faye**: "The relic took the shield down. Go for the crystal!"

The barrier surrounding the crystal is removed.

### Destroy Crystal

The Freelancer destroys the Central Crystal.

* **Faye**: "Nice work!"
* **Vara Brom**: "Here I am, Freelancers. Let’s finish this."

Before destroying the crystal, the Secret Boss, who is a Valkyrie Officer called Valkyrie Casja can show up.

* **Valkyrie Casja**: "For Vara! For the Dominion!"

The Freelancer fights Casja and defeats her.

* **Valkyrie Casja**: "I refuse to yield."

## Post Expedition

A Tier-3 Treasure Chest shows up. If opened, the Freelancer can collect a mixture of loot and embers. The Freelancer can go to the next event or go to fight Vara.

## Notes and Remarks

* The dialogs mentioned in the script can vary across different play-throughs and different repetition of the game modes. The dialog will be taken from a pool that get rotated in-game. The script mentioned here is from one such instance.
