How to unlock Hollow Vale sect in Where Winds Meet

The Hollow Vale sect in Where Winds Meet stands out as one of the most mysterious factions in the game. Like every sect, it offers its own perks, combat identity, and martial arts, and this one is built around necromancy, healing, and a dark, ritualistic balance between life and death.

Here’s everything that’s known so far to unlock Hollow Vale sect in Where Winds Meet.

Note: While players can browse the sect entry from the in-game menu, Hollow Vale remains currently inaccessible. This guide is a work in progress, and we will update it once available.

How to join Hollow Vale sect in Where Winds Meet

The sect is intentionally portrayed as secretive, and its joining criteria remain hidden for now. However, the join clue found in the Sect menu provides important context. Hollow Vale is described as a sect of Necromancers and Healers, capable of dealing death with one hand and restoring life with the other.

The hinted requirement 'taking a life each time you save one' suggests that joining may involve balancing acts or moral choices aligned with the sect’s philosophy.

Since the sect revolves around life, death, poison, and healing, players can expect the eventual entry method to connect to those themes. But until the developers release the full details, the join process remains a mystery.

Rules of Hollow Vale sect in Where Winds Meet

Even though the sect is locked, its rules are already visible in the game files through the Sect menu. These rules set the tone for what kind of disciples Hollow Vale trains:

• No Living Puppets: Life and death have boundaries; playing with dream puppets is forbidden. Though Heartless Vale disciples bear poisoned bodies, their hearts are kind. Transforming the living into dream puppets is an ironclad sect rule. Those who experiment on themselves are exempt.
• Balance of Life and Death: Where there is life, there must be death; where there is death, there must be life. Heartless Vale’s dual sources of healing and poison must remain balanced. For every life healed, poison must be used once. Failure invites self-inflicted suffering.

Hollow Vale sect Martial Arts in Where Winds Meet
