Stranded Graveyard
The Stranded Graveyard is the first place you actually get to explore. It is a dark, damp cavern full of coffins, tucked under the Fringefolk Hero’s Grave in the southwest of Limgrave, and it is where you wash up after your first, very short meeting with the Grafted Scion at the Chapel of Anticipation.
It is small and quiet, but there is more going on than it seems. A hole in the floor drops into the Cave of Knowledge, the game’s tutorial, and a sealed door with an imp statue leads into the Fringefolk Hero’s Grave, one of the tougher dungeons you can find in the early game. The big door at the end opens to The First Step and the open world.
Sites of Grace
Cave of Knowledge (drop down the hole near where you wake up)
Notable loot
Tarnished’s Furled Finger
Haligdrake Talisman (on the beach reached through the area’s back entrance)
Strength! gesture (for finishing the Cave of Knowledge)
How to get there
You begin the game here. Later, you can come back by riding the lift down at the Fringefolk Hero’s Grave and walking through the large door. There is also a way in from a beach on Limgrave’s southwestern coast, which is also where the Haligdrake Talisman waits.
Lore
Torrent cannot be summoned inside the graveyard, so you will be on foot while you are down here.
