Far Reaches

**Far Reaches** is one of the Mystery Ylands found in the Arctic region, it costs 50 Exploration Points to unlock. Once unlocked it can be visited any amount of times or reset to be able to replay it again (it will cost 50 points to unlock it each subsequent reset). The main objective of this Yland is to collect the glowing Heart of Frost sprites, charge them up 3 times and then take them to each of the 6 volcanoes hidden around the map. This Mystery Yland can become very cold so it is best to prepare by bringing Cold Resistance Potions or foods that provide cold resist such as Cup of Tea or Electric Nuggets, as well as warm clothing.

## Map

The locations that the charge orbs can spawn at vary each play-through so you might not encounter all of the ones marked on the map and you may find some that aren't on this map either.

## Heart of Frost

Sailing in from the West side of the map, find the large crevasse in the side of the iceberg yland and head inside. Be careful if you have a tall ship as it may hit the icy ceiling above. On a platform there is a strange glowing sprite circling a pillar, approach and interact with it to learn that it's called a Heart of Frost and it is unhappy about volcanoes.

The goal is not immediately obvious here but it will become more clear soon. The Heart of Frost will now follow you around, head to the nearest glowing orb that has just spawned in and the Heart of Frost will fly into it and a third of it's heart will turn blue. Search the nearby area or use the map to find 2 more of these charge orbs to fuel the Heart of Frost. Once it's heart is completely blue, it is ready to extinguish a volcano.

There are numerous tunnels and hidden pathways throughout the map that lead to 6 different volcanoes. Explore thoroughly to find them all and use the map above as a guide to locate them. Keep an eye out for black smoke and bubbles coming from the water which indicate where the volcanoes are. The UI in the top-left corner below the health bar will show when you find an active volcano.

Once you reach a volcano the Heart of Frost will fly into it to extinguish the flames, it will change the symbol in the top-left corner for that volcano to show that it has been extinguished. This will drain the heart down again and it will need recharging with 3 more of those orbs. Repeat this process until all 6 volcanoes have been extinguished. Some volcanoes are guarded by Fire Golems which will need to be defeated first in order to lower the force field around the volcano.

Once all 6 volcanoes have been extinguished, a Stone Chest appears with some loot as a reward for completing the mystery. One of the unique reward items is the Pile of Ash which has a red glowing, flame effect coming off of it.

## Notable Loot

There are 3 Pheromones in broken crates on some small icebergs inside the main cave where the first Heart of Frost is found.

Directly below the area with the Pheromones is a sunken catamaran wreck with a key to a locked chest detailed below. There is also an unlocked Wooden Chest here too.

In one of the tunnels branching from the Southern most cave entrance is a pool of water, here you can dive down to find many Red Quartz Crystals as well as several sunken ship wrecks. On one of them is a locked Pirate Chest requiring the key from the above location. The glowing symbol below here is a code system used by the devs to identify the mystery yland.

There is an unlocked Stone Chest on the Southern side of the yland, at the opening of a tunnel which leads down to a volcano. The lot can include items such as Ylandium Dust, Ylandium Crystals, Cobalt Ore, Snow, Ice Chunks, Leather, and Polar Bear Hides.

There is an unlocked Stone Chest on the North-Western side of the yland, at the end of a tunnel that opens up to the outside.

There is another unlocked Stone Chest inside one of the large caves that has a tunnel leading to volcano #4 as well as an underwater tunnel leading to volcano #3. It can be reached by jumping up the wall.

There is another unlocked Stone Chest near the opening of the Western tunnel that leads to volcano #5.
underground

There are several containers on the South-Eastern side of the yland where there is a Jötunn ship.
