Vast Interior Map - M16

The above map shows the Vast Interior - one of several locations that constitute the Bloom, which is a gigantic, living organism. During your stay in the Vast Interior you can meet people that will let you rest, buy new equipment or unlock new quests. In the Vast Interior you can also access as many as six different locations of the Bloom.

Attention - Ioxu's Shanty and Shrine of Chila are tiny locations and they don't have separate pages devoted to them in our guide. They were only described on the map below.

Place to rest in The Vast Interior

Talk to the Observant Speck about getting some rest

To organize some rest, you have to get to the Shrine of Chila, which is located in the western part of the Interior (M16.2). Talk to the Observant Speck. She will demand 45 shins per head (a full party will have to pay 180 shins).

Other key locations in the Vast Interior

1. Ioxu's Shanty. Before the entrance you can find Inkpot (Bloom cultist), who can offer you a side quest, Anathema. Beside him is a water reservoir. You can drink from it to get XP and obtain the Bloom Juiced fettle. (Drinking again will get you to the Labyrinth).

Inside, you will find Ioxu. You have to meet him to get the Anathema quest done. (If - according to the wishes of the Bloom cultists - you want to assassinate Ioxu, mind the construct controlled by him, and consider sabotaging the device in the center of the Shanty).

You can also trade with Ioxu. He sells usable items, cyphers, ranged weapons, cloaks and bonded items.

2. Shrine of Chilia. Before entering the shrine, talk to Walks-without-fear.

The Observant Speck - you can use Anamnesis on her and talk to her about Chilia, Walks-without-fear (+2PD) and job for Coty (quest Freedman). She can also allow you to rest - for 45 shins a person.

In the latter stage of the game, you can talk with the Spec and open the Maw leading to the Gullet (map M23), as part of the main quest: Into the Depths.

3. Sundermun and Sundermun. With Sundermun the Younger you cannot do anything more than just talk. You can talk with Sundermun the Elder about a job for Coty (quest "Freedman"). Sundermun the Elder sells armor, melee weapons, cyphers, usable items and bonded items.

4. Merchants. From Grisseler and other merchants you can learn that The Bloom devoured the Trade Post (the Dracogen's Price main quest) and that you need to find an alternative route there.

In the latter part of the game (after finding the alternative way to Trade Post and obtaining the Magmatic Annulet) you can unlock the passage here that will allow you to travel freely between the Interior and the Trade Post.

5. Group of armored people. Talk to Arechi to unlock the quest Marooned on an Alien Shore.

6. The Cyst. You can examine it and touch it. A vision will begin - don't try to escape it. Repeat the activity when the vision ends. The Cyst will explode and Abykos will escape from it (you will get some XP). Examine the debris of the Cyst to obtain the Mesmeric handle and unlock the side quest, A Hilt Without a Blade. It's a pretty important quest that will allow you to open Maws in different parts of the Bloom.
