Soulframe mid-game dungeons unlock as you clear main-story Fables: Glades of Andurin after The Torment Stag, Neath'uns after The Waste Bear, and Crypt of the Circade once you hold Crypt Keys. All four dungeon types use procedural layouts, chest loot, wandering souls at entrances, and a boss or Agari finale — your Sparrow guides you to the end room.

There are currently 28 known dungeon entrances across Midrath. For precise entrance locations, see soulframe.th.gl.
Wandering souls are glowing spirits at dungeon entrances (and some story beats). Bond with them — press interact, not attack — for a temporary fourth Arcanic slot for that run. Use Spectral Sight to spot them; the same mode also highlights chests and hidden paths.
During The Torment Stag you must bond with Fenn Jotar's wandering spirit inside Dermak Undercity to receive Igne Mora. Full bonding mechanics and story context: main quest — wandering souls.
Soulframe has four dungeon types. Each run rolls a procedural layout (tilesets / procsets). Every instance includes chests, wandering souls, and a boss or Agari finale — Sparrow leads you to the end room.
Unlock: Available early; first encountered during The Torment Stag fable.
Enemies: Sinecure soldiers, Ode casters, Reaper (Agari), Sinecure-Errant Vella (Agari).
Entrances: Multiple wellheads across Midrath — north of Luminns, near the Scholar's Tower, around Mines of Borro, and more.
Tips:
Unlock: Entrances activate after completing The Torment Stag.
Enemies: Corrupted wildlife, Sinecure forces, Seachnall The Widower (Agari), Fore-Feller Hewyl (Agari).
Entrances: Multiple — south of Fort Curlail, Wyndoun, Wevet Ridge, Uplands, and more.
Arena tile: While exploring a Glades instance you may roll an Arena encounter. Surviving waves grants extra rewards plus weapon / Pact XP — the fastest mid-game XP loop after Torment Stag (envoy leveling).
Farm targets: Picktrix materials, weapon fragments in chests, and Agari drops from Seachnall / Hewyl (see Agari location table).

Unlock: Complete Brewer of Hues (recruit Verminia), then finish The Waste Bear — dungeon entrances open afterward.
Enemies: Rotted Sproutfolk / Sproutling, Weavers, Gourdo (Agari), Gruul-Seeker Sontaro (Agari).
Entrances: Four known Neath portals (A–D) in northeastern Midrath near Digsite, Slane, Moray, and Council zones.
Purple rune puzzles: Shoot purple wall runes with ranged attacks to release water or grow root bridges. When a gap blocks you, scan nearby walls for runes first.
Tips:
Unlock: Requires at least one Crypt Key. Keys drop from heavy foes (Banneret, Ode'n Knight, Corrupted Ode Dog, Etheldred the Weaver, Brute Corrupted Sproutfolk, Sinecure Knight) and from Faction Tales.
Special rule: Single life — no Sparrow revive on death. Stack magic defense; most Crypt enemies deal magick damage.
Entrances: Three graveyard sites — northeastern Midrath, south Midrath near Fort Kearnhold, and southeast of Mirifuir. Use a Crypt Key on the blue-glowing sarcophagus and jump in (one key per entry).
Inside:
One-time puzzle rewards: Circade armour set (hidden gem order in the boss room) and Triune Talisman (three Circade soul murals — dawn / dusk / midnight). Full puzzle steps: Crypt of the Circade guide.
Best use: Farm Gossamer Quartz / Sappheline when you need those mats — Crypt Keys are limited, so avoid aimless runs. Prefer the Fort Kearnhold-adjacent entrance for shorter travel after exit.
