  "textContent": "The Dragon's Stone Chamber is one of _Crimson Desert_ 's trickiest ancient ruins — a hidden puzzle room tucked inside a massive sinkhole in the Hernand Highlands. Inside, three ornate rotating discs sit in a pit with zero obvious instructions. Solving the puzzle requires you to track down cliff-face murals scattered across the open world, then match each disc's orientation to the correct painting. Or you can skip the scavenger hunt entirely and just set the discs to the right positions.\n\n**Quick answer:** Rotate the sun-and-moon disc so the sun and moon face north, set the scorpion disc so its claws point northwest, and orient the spiral disc so the larger spiral sits in the top-right quadrant. A door opens on the far wall, revealing an Abyss Cresset with an Abyss Artifact and the Memories of Abundance.\n\nImage credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Dragon's Stone Chamber location\n\nThe chamber sits roughly 700 meters south-southeast of Hernand Town, in the Hernand Highlands. The fastest approach is from the Howling Hill camp (the Greymane camp). Head southeast along the road until you spot a huge hole in the ground — you'll likely notice a question mark on your map indicating mysterious energy in the area as you get close to your house, which unlocks after completing \"A Fresh Start.\"\n\nBefore dropping straight down, look for an opening in the rock wall on the **northwest side** of the pit. Gliding in from the southeast rim of the hole is the easiest way to reach it. If you miss, you'll need to climb up from the bottom instead.\n\nOnce inside the opening, you'll see a painted mural on the wall. Pull out your lantern to collect the memories nearby, then equip the **Visione** to watch the stored memory. After that, push directly into the painted door on the mural — it physically slides open — and you'll enter the chamber proper. Along the walls, you'll find a large painted map with three red check marks, and in the center of the room, a pit containing the three rotating discs.\n\nPush into the painted door to enter the chamber | Image credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\n* * *\n\n### How the puzzle works\n\nEach disc in the pit displays an illustrated image that can be rotated freely when you interact with it. The chamber's east and west walls both show the same hand-painted map of a section of Hernand, marked with three V-shaped symbols at specific locations. These marks correspond to three murals painted on cliff faces out in the open world, southeast of Anvil Hill and near the Halssius House of Healing.\n\n💡\n\nThe painted map inside the chamber isn't oriented with north at the top. It is, however, proportionally accurate — you can overlay it on your world map if you rotate it to match recognizable landmarks. The structure in the upper-right corner of the painting is the House of Healing, which helps you get your bearings.\n\nIf you want to solve the puzzle the intended way, you need to travel to the marked locations, find each mural, memorize its orientation, and then return to the chamber to match the discs. The three murals are all along a cliffside east of Anvil Hill, roughly 350 meters northwest of the House of Healing.\n\nEach disc in the pit displays an illustrated image that can be rotated freely | Image credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\n* * *\n\n### Where to find each mural\n\nMural| Location| What it looks like\n---|---|---\nSun and Moon| Near a northern rivulet on the cliffside east of Anvil Hill| A sun and moon connected to a spiral design\nBlack Spirals| Slightly northeast of the Sun and Moon mural, same cliffside| Two black spirals — one larger in the upper-right area, one smaller in the lower-left\nScorpion| About 400 meters southwest along the same cliff| A coiled scorpion with its arms (claws) facing to the left\n\nTracking down all three murals is a genuine time investment given how spread out they are. If you'd rather skip straight to the answer, the next section has the exact disc positions.\n\n* * *\n\n### Exact disc solutions\n\n**Step 1:** Drop into the pit in the center of the Dragon's Stone Chamber and approach the first disc — the one showing a sun and moon. Rotate it until the **sun and moon face north** (toward the top of the disc as you look at it).\n\nRotate the disk until the sun and moon face north | Image credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\n**Step 2:** Move to the scorpion disc. Rotate it so the **scorpion's claws point northwest**.\n\n**Step 3:** Interact with the spiral disc and rotate it until the **larger spiral sits in the top-right quadrant**. This one can require a bit of fine-tuning — keep adjusting until the game registers the correct alignment.\n\nInteract with the spiral disc and rotate it until the larger spiral sits in the top-right quadrant | Image credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\nOnce all three discs are properly set, a door on the far (north) wall of the chamber slides open.\n\n⚠️\n\nThe spiral disc is the fussiest of the three. If the door isn't opening, double-check that the larger spiral is clearly in the upper-right portion of the disc face. Small rotational differences matter here.\n\n* * *\n\n### Dragon's Stone Chamber rewards\n\nBehind the newly opened door you'll find an **Abyss Cresset**. Interact with it to collect two things:\n\nReward| Effect\n---|---\nAbyss Artifact| Activates the Abyss Cresset as a fast travel point near your home camp\nMemories of Abundance| Reveals all hidden place locations across the Hernand region on your map\n\nThe puzzle doesn't hand you a weapon or a pile of gold, but a fast travel station this close to your home base is genuinely useful — even if it does sit at the bottom of a pit. There are also diamond deposits in the surrounding cave worth grabbing while you're down there.\n\nImage credit: __Pearl Abyss (via YouTube/@GosuNoob)__\n\n* * *\n\nThe Dragon's Stone Chamber is one of the more time-consuming optional puzzles in _Crimson Desert_ , but the Memories of Abundance reward alone makes it worth doing early. Unlocking every hidden location in Hernand saves you a lot of aimless wandering later, and the nearby fast travel point means you won't dread the trip back.",
