Adventurers who have conquered the challenges of Valencia should be ready to brave the dangers of Drieghan. The grandeur of Drieghan has monster zones that fit the solemn and tense atmosphere of the territory.

Knowing all the specific accessories and magic crystals that drop at each monster zone in Drieghan is half the battle, so here are the major locations to look out for:

Blood Wolf Settlement – inhabited by the worshipers of the Crimson Dragon, Garmoth.
Tshira Ruins – the cursed land that overflows with poison and a vile stench.
Sherekhan Necropolis -- where the 5 brave Sherekhan warriors dwell.

Sherekhan Necropolis is significantly different during the day and night time as the <Guardian Spirit> elite monsters only appear at night. They are extremely powerful, even compared to other elite monsters you may have previously encountered. Another feature is that you can choose when the elite monsters will be summoned during the night. Make sure to be well-prepared for a tough fight before summoning them!

Additionally, as you battle your way through these three monster zones, be prepared to be ambushed by Garmoth herself at any time. She will appear in the skies above and bombard you with fireballs. At the location where her attacks have landed a chest will appear, and in it you will find rewards for surviving the encounter.

Kvariaks
As you defeat monsters, from time to time, a system message will appear letting you know of the appearance of a kvariak, the brethren of the field boss Katzvariak. Go to the marked location, denoted by a lack of monsters nearby and the light pillar you’ll see there, and prepare yourself to fight against quite the fearsome foe. Kvariaks are a lot stronger than the normal monsters in the swamp, and will harass you with a mix of spear skills and area-of-effect venomous attacks.

There is a difference between day and night. Once it hits 10:00 at night, the monsters that were spread out in groups disappear and a dreary energy starts to permeate the land.
At night you can get intense one-on-one fights against elite monsters. Each one has a tomb or grave in its weapon’s shape: Garud', Nybrica's, Lateh's, Federik's, and Belcadas's. You can use 10 energy to interact with the tombs or graves to summon the guardian spirit elite iteration of these monsters, and they will appear one at a time.
