Enshrouded, with its immersive world and intricate gameplay, recently introduced an exciting update that includes unlocking a new survivor, Valory the Bard. As part of the “Melodies of the Mire” expansion, gaining access to Valory brings fresh quests, musical features, and rewards. This guide will help you navigate the steps to unlock the Bard and enhance your journey through the Blackmire region.
Step 1: Start with the Flame Altar
To begin the process, ensure your game is updated to include the latest content. Interact with the Flame Altarwhere you can trigger the “Follow the Melody” questline. This questline is pivotal as it leads you to the Blackmire region and sets the stage for rescuing Valory.
Step 2: Explore the Blackmire Region
Your journey takes you to the Ancient Spire in Blackmire, which acts as a crucial fast-travel point. Activating it simplifies your navigation across the region. Next, head to the Sunken Ancient Citya dangerous area filled with black tar hazards. This tar can be lethal, so careful movement and strategic stamina management are key.
Step 3: Locate the Building of Valory’s Captivity
In the heart of the Sunken Ancient City lies a towering structure with locked doors, which houses Valory. To gain entry, you must activate three buttons scattered around the city. Each button requires exploration and precision:
- First Button: Found south of the building. Use your surroundings, such as markers or distinct features, to locate it.
- Second Button: Located southwest. Look for unique landmarks like red bounce pads to guide you.
- Third Button: Head northwest from the building. Another bounce pad or landmark nearby often marks its position.
If you’re inclined to bypass this part, you can use a pickaxe to break through the door, but doing so skips the challenge and rewards of exploration.
Step 4: Unlock the Doors
Once all three buttons are activated, return to the building to find the doors unlocked. Inside, you’ll find Valory in the deepest part of the structure. There are no enemies to hinder your progress at this stage, making the rescue relatively straightforward.
Step 5: Integrate Valory into Your Base
After rescuing Valory, she becomes a part of your team. Use a Summoning Staff to place her in any of your bases. Interacting with Valory unlocks a range of new opportunities, including quests and the crafting of musical instruments.

- Quests: Valory introduces unique challenges, such as acquiring the first legendary dagger. These quests are rewarding and add depth to your gameplay.
- Musical Instruments: With Valory, you can craft items like lutes, harps, and drums. These instruments not only enhance gameplay but also add a vibrant layer of ambiance to the world.
