Lyra Vale
Find cartographer Lyra Vale, use her survey services, unlock safer regional routes, and follow the quests tied to her map notes.
Where to find Lyra
Unlock the Scout’s Compass, leave camp through the western gate, and follow the survey flags uphill. Lyra stands beside the large map table under a green canopy.
She remains at the camp after both regional routes are unlocked, so later map updates can be collected from the same place.
Services
Lyra exchanges completed survey marks for route notes. Each note adds a checkpoint, hazard, or sealed passage to the expedition map.
Her service does not spend upgrade ore. Turn in survey marks before entering a new region so its first route includes the added information.
Route notes
The Citadel note reveals the lower aqueduct and western lift sequence. The Tidevault note marks the eastern spillway and the clockwise dry-platform route.
Ember Citadel
Use Lyra's aqueduct note to reach the western lift before the arena.
Tidemaw
Use the spillway note to begin beside the first safe Tidevault platform.
Related quests
Complete three camp survey marks to receive the Citadel note. The Tidevault note becomes available after the first Frostbound update quest reaches the eastern spillway.
Both quests reward route knowledge rather than equipment, so they can be completed without changing the current build.
