Crimson Desert: All Toll of Pywel Bell Locations for Full Map Unlock

Crimson Desert: All Toll of Pywel Bell Locations to Unlock the Full Map

Unlocking the full map in Crimson Desert is a rite of passage for any adventurer. At Digital Tech Explorer, we’ve spent hours traversing the rugged terrain of Pywel to bring you the most efficient path to discovery. To reveal the continent’s secrets, you must complete the Toll of Pywel quest, which involves ringing eight ancient bells scattered across the northern and southern reaches of the map.

The journey begins with a first bell in Hernand, situated right near Kliff’s starting point. However, the remaining seven will push your exploration skills to the limit. As TechTalesLeo, I’ve mapped out these locations to ensure your journey through Pywel is as seamless as possible.

The journey begins: The first bell location in the city of Hernand.

Mastering the Toll of Pywel

While most of the eight bell locations are accessible early on, several are tied to story progression. If you find a bell but the cutscene won’t trigger, the area is likely still considered “hostile.” You must secure the zone through story missions or local objectives before the Pororin Forest Guardians NPCs will appear to acknowledge your progress.

1. Toll of Hernand

Crimson Desert Toll of Pywel - Hernand bell tower
The starting bell tower in the heart of Hernand.

Easily identified to the west of the local tavern, this bell triggers the Toll of Pywel faction quest. Ringing it introduces you to the Pororin Forest Guardians, who task you with finding the remaining seven markers to fully chart the continent.

2. Toll of Scholastone

Crimson Desert Toll of Pywel - Scholastone
The scholarly heights of the Scholastone Institute.

The Scholastone Institute sits high in the mountains southwest of Hernand. While reachable early, it is best visited during Chapter 4. Navigate the staircases past the golden globe device to reach the south end of the upper courtyard where the bell resides.

3. Toll of Calphade

Crimson Desert Toll of Pywel - Calphade
Thalwynd Village’s bell tower offers a scenic view of the Northeast.

Located in Thalwynd Village, west of Calphade Castle, this bell is accessible regardless of your story progress. Head to the Church of Calphade and climb the tower to claim this piece of the map.

4. Toll of Pailune

The Pailune harbor tower stands against the northern winds.

Patience is key here. You must complete the Dawn section of Chapter 7 before this bell becomes interactive. It is located in a small tower on the eastern edge of the capital’s harbor.

5. Toll of Demeniss

The Demeniss bell is found in the sprawling city east of Hernand. To ring it, you must first progress the story until the city is no longer a hostile zone. Look for the massive tower northwest of the Cathedral of Demeniss; it is one of the most prominent structures on your city map.

6. Toll of Delesyia

In the far east at the Delesyian Institute, you’ll find a bell that reflects the region’s unique aesthetic. The tower is easily spotted by its steampunk machinery and rotating clockwork gears. It is located just south of Deleysia Castle, across the river.

7. Toll of Tommaso

Venture into the northeast desert to reach Tommaso. The bell is located in the northern sector of the city. You won’t find a simple ladder here; instead, you’ll need to climb the exterior of the structure to reach the ringing mechanism.

8. Toll of Varnia

The final challenge awaits in the northernmost reaches of Pywel. The Varnia bell is housed within the palace’s highest dome. This location features a minor environmental puzzle: you must climb beneath the dome and activate a handle to lower the bell within reach.
