Bergen Trail

A rural area leading up to the cold town of Bergen.

**Bergen Trail** is a location in CrossWorlds. It is a high, snow-filled, mountainous area with steep cliffs and long views. It can be found north of Autumn's Rise. It must be crossed to reach Bergen Village and the Temple Mine.

At the foot of the mountain, the path begins with a green, temperate forest of coniferous hardwood trees, though it will inevitably start to snow when moving towards the top.
It is home to a lot of White Frobbits who can hide below snow to attack with a surprise attack. You might also find some Pengpengs along the way.

## Layout

Bergen Trail extends north from Autumn's Rise to the village of Bergen. Multiple paths can be followed to traverse the area. At the bottom of the trail is a resting spot with several traders; it is mentioned in-game that there used to be a meeting place here, but it was removed in anticipation of a future update. This is where Lea has her first duel with Apollo. Halfway up the trail is the Hermit's House, a pub and waypoint for travellers. A few caves can be found throughout the area.

### Connecting Regions

The locations reachable from Bergen Trail are Autumn's Rise via Entrance, and Bergen Village via Rising Path 5.

### Rooms

Most parts of Bergen Trail can be accessed immediately. However, Abandoned Ground requires the Heat element to enter. The Horncave only unlocks during The Goatfather quest. The Hermit's Basement only unlocks during the Heating the Hermit quest. The secret lab in this area is XBox exclusive and unlocks during the Out of the Box quest. Finally, Excluded Mountain Top is accessed much later on in the plot.

## Role in the Plot

### In CrossWorlds

Seekers must pass through Bergen Trail on their way to Bergen Village and the Temple Mine.

### In CrossCode

Lea and Emilie arrive at the bottom of Bergen Trail, ready for Lea's duel against Apollo. The two duel, and regardless of the outcome, Apollo accuses Lea of not unlocking the true potential of the Spheromancer class before leaving. Lea and Emilie then log off. The next day, Lea continues up the mountain to Bergen Village, optionally inviting Emilie to her party.

Later, when Lea is pulled out of the Para Island raid by the Blue Avatar, he takes her to an isolated location in Bergen Trail for a duel. Although Sergey tries to help Lea escape, the Blue Avatar counters his attempts, and eventually cancels the duel, replacing it with an unbeatable challenge before teleporting Lea away to Vermillion Wasteland.
