Enshrouded Albaneve Summits Lore

Written by Sarah-Maree

The following is what I have for Albaneve Summits Lore in Enshrouded. NOTE: MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS - I won’t share Lore content, but the titles may give things away, and the photos may reveal things. For an overview of what the heck I’m talking about, click here! Since I found most of these, they won’t glow red in the pictures, but they should glow red, like a fire, for you if you haven’t discovered them yet. If not, I’m sure the game developers would appreciate any feedback or hearing of any glitches, bugs, or malfunctions as this is an Early Access game - in that it isn’t fully finished and they are still working out some things. If you have any questions or tips for me, let me know in the comments! I’ll try to update often and with images to help guide you on your journey. All images used in this blog post are screenshots from the game Enshrouded.

TIP: Having trouble with an Ancient Spire? Check out my Enshrouded Ancient Spires Overview for how you can reach the top of the towers and unlock Fast Travel.

NOTE: A LOT of the content below is from the Souls Of The Frozen Frontier - VO.7.4.0. This content may still be relevant after November, 2024 - but there may be gaps in the information below as more Lore and Quests are being added by developers. I am trying to stay on top of the changes.

Albaneve Summits

Balefire Garrison "Windward" Notes

1/2 I'm Not Cut Out For This

This Lore and the second piece of it can both be found at the Balefire Garrison “Windward” Notes. There is also a Pure Soul here, but I’m getting ahead of myself. From the top area of the garrison, you can see a door to the left. Head for that and you’ll find the Pure Soul and this Lore!

TIP: Flame Altar Quest here: Slaying The Corrupted Beast and Items, XP, and Loot Reward Quest: Ancestor's Weapons - Pure Soul Gunther Galeforth.

2/2 Wind Riders

This Lore can also be found in the Balefire Garrison “Windward”. It was particularly easy to see at night. From the top of the garrison, look down and you’ll be able to spot it glowing (bottom right).

TIP: Flame Altar Quest here: Slaying The Corrupted Beast and Items, XP, and Loot Reward Quest: Ancestor's Weapons - Pure Soul Gunther Galeforth.

A Devious Performance

1/2 All Preparations Are Done!

This Lore can be found at the top of a tower in New Cromville. I’ll have to come back later, after I’ve upgraded my Flame so I can explore the rest of the area and hopefully find the second half of this Lore :D SUCCESS! So, reading this Lore starts the Items, XP, and Loot Reward Quest: A Devious Performance. And you CAN find the second half of this Lore (2/2 Only Today: The Fabulous Godwin’s “Impalement Act!”) in New Cromville!

I may not be the nerdiest nerd you’ve ever met, but I still like to think of myself as a lover of science, video games, and of course, books.
