Pywel is a huge world brimming with secrets, enemy bases, and lots of things to collect. The expansive world is divided into five different regions, each offering unique environments and storylines.
Demeniss is the second area players will explore in Pywel. Like Hernand, it’s full of hidden items, quests, and collectibles. You can use our map to help you find everything Demeniss has to offer.

Navigating Pywel
Crimson Desert is a huge game that doesn’t offer much guidance, so exploring the world of Pywel can be tricky at first. Our interactive map has many features, and we’ll quickly cover the most useful ones to help you get started.
Belltowers
In Crimson Desert, finding and ringing belltowers is a quick way to explore the world. Each belltower you activate removes the fog of war from a large area, showing you important locations nearby. When you begin playing, it’s a good strategy to prioritize finding and ringing these towers to uncover as much of the map as you can.
Abyss Nexus
You can quickly travel around the world using the Abyss Nexus, which are circular platforms hidden throughout the game. Most of these platforms are located in the Pywel region and appear on your map as “Mysterious Energy.” Simply stand on a platform for a short time to activate it, and you’ll then be able to instantly travel to that location whenever you want.
You can find Abyss Nexus plates within the Abyss, which is a collection of floating islands you’ll return to several times throughout the game.
You can switch to the Abyss map by pressing the L3 button on your controller or using the mouse wheel on keyboard and mouse.
Abyss Artifacts
Throughout the world of Pywel, you’ll find Abyss Artifacts – small, cube-shaped items that let you improve your character. Use them to boost stats, learn new abilities, or make your best equipment even better. Collecting as many as you can is highly recommended!
There are three ways of obtaining Abyss Artifacts:
- Complete quests and defeat enemies.
- Find Sealed Abyss Artifacts and complete their respective challenge.
- Activate an Abyss Cresset.
Important Vendors
Crimson Desert features more than a dozen different kinds of vendors. While their names generally explain what they sell or do, some merchants are surprisingly useful and important.
- Blacksmith: Vendors that can upgrade your weapons, armor, and jewelry.
- Confessional: Allows you to pay off criminal bounties.
- Stable: Offers equipment upgrades for your mount.
- Witch: Craft and socket Abyss Cores into your gear. Abyss Cores offer powerful passive traits to your character.
- Witches become accessible from Chapter 5 onward.
Points of Interest
Pywel offers more than just farms and old buildings to explore. As you play through Crimson Desert, you’ll encounter a wide variety of interesting places.
- Sanctum: A difficult puzzle you can complete for rewards. Most sanctums are locked behind story progression.
- Spire: A platforming, puzzle, and/or boss challenge. Some are tied to the main story, but you’ll have to find most on your own.
- Outpost: Territory held by a particular faction.
- On our interactive map, blue outposts are friendly; red outposts are enemy territory you must capture.
