The Valley of Tears and Timber

Weeping Creek Valley serves as the expansive opening playground of Phantom Blade Zero. Crisscrossed by roaring white-water rapids, wooden suspension bridges, and towering moss-covered waterwheels, this region introduces players to the coexistence of pastoral wuxia landscapes and aggressive industrial expansion.
