Farm RuinsReport

English:Farm Ruins · Locations

A cluster of burnt-out farm buildings at the very top of Okran's Valley with nothing worth taking — but four free camp beds beside them, and a case file written into the landscape.

Farm Ruins sits at the northernmost tip of Okran's Valley and consists of destroyed buildings. There is no notable loot here at all.

It earns an article for two other reasons.

Four free beds

The ruins contain four Camp Beds, free to use — no payment, no faction check.

Okran's Valley is the Holy Nation's northernmost corridor: no cities, only farms and patrols. For a squad moving along that corridor, four beds that belong to nobody are worth considerably more than a crate of scrap.

Who burned it

The ruins sit very close to Ravaged Hamlets. From that proximity, the wiki infers that this area was razed when the United Cities pushed into Holy Nation territory — after which Holy Nation forces pushed the frontline back to Bast, where it has stayed ever since.

The reasoning is recorded in a footnote on the same page, and the footnote is the interesting part, because it works by elimination:

Which leaves one answer: a regular army came through.

NoteDo not confuse this with Farm Ruin (singular). That is a separate location in the Burning Forest, belonging to the United Cities, made up of two destroyed Storm Houses and three destroyed Small Shacks — and also holding no loot.

What it means for the player

Farm Ruins is not a target; it is a waypoint and a rest stop:

If you came to loot, there is nothing here. For anything worth carrying, the Holy Farms to the south are the realistic option.
