Travel to the Deep Docks and The Forge Daughter. Move to the leftmost side of Deep Docks and turn right to drop down and follow the path to the right. Continue moving till you get to the center of Deep Docks. Head to the Diving Bell. Continue your journey till you reach the Abyss Map.

Travel up to reach the location for Silk Soar. Make sure to explore the Abyss as you can’t return later. Once you’re ready to leave, return to the bell. The bell is missing, so you need to climb and run from the lava.

Hi, I’m Ali. I started gaming with Max Payne, and it set the tone for my interest in darker, more immersive experiences. I mostly play soulslikes, RPGs, and FPS titles that focus on tight mechanics and pacing.

I have a strong appreciation for game soundtracks and how they shape the overall experience. I’m also a long-time horror fan, across both games and films, with a preference for atmosphere-driven storytelling. This space reflects that passion, exploring games through both their mechanics and the atmosphere they create.
