The Kuva Wytch
Aid Ryoku mission walkthrough: Santovan's Oath, Vena capital ship, Emerald rewards.
The Kuva Wytch places you beside Ryoku, Ash's Protoframe, in an assault on Vena's blood-soaked capital ship. It is the Emerald Talent mission line, feeding Pride blueprint purchases and Bladeswarm cosmetics at Hunhow. Structure parallels Scoria's Angel but environments emphasize crimson gore, Bloodfrenzy units, and Vena's sadistic arena.
Mission Summary
Launch from Navigation or Pontis Tower fast travel "Skirmish Against Vena." Board Santovan's Oath, dismantle Vena's outer defenses, use the Orowyrm weapon to breach her ship, survive blood pools and traps, then kill Vena alongside her Bloodfrenzy reinforcements. Rewards: twelve–sixteen Emerald Talents (eighteen–twenty-two Steel Path), random blueprint, guaranteed Arcane.
Phase 1: Railjack Combat
Ryoku's cloaked assassin Railjack excels at ranged strikes and regenerative ammo loops. Clear Skirmish objectives while managing Void Cloak and Tether battle abilities. Orowyrm targeting minigame during approach grants bonus Emerald Talents—similar to Ramsled on the Vena mission line. Coordinate Forward Artillery and crew repairs for smooth transitions into boarding.
Ryoku's Railjack: Santovan's Oath
Santovan's Oath loadout: Onslaught Matrix, Fortifying Fire, Intruder Stasis, Death Blossom, Blackout Pulse, Void Hole Plexus mods. Components: Lavan Shield Array MK III, Vidar Engines MK III, Lavan Plating MK III, Vidar Reactor MK III. Armaments: Zetki Vort, Zetki Photor, Tycho Seeker MK III. Default crew: Orphoron, Piliotzi, Domito. Ryoku fights alongside you.
Phase 2: Capital Ship Boarding
Vena's ship resembles a tuning-fork warship drenched in crimson lighting. Interiors feature blood pools, sparking cables, a decapitated Parvos Granum statue, and Bloodfrenzy enemy variants. Keep distance from blood vine mechanics that punish melee rushdown. Secret room hides Karotic Signa for explorers who notice visual cues in blood-splattered walls—details on Secret Signa Rooms.
Phase 3: Vena Boss
Vena's fight combines terminal shutdown phases with sustained DPS checks. Destroy blood bind sources, interact with three terminals, maintain range during blood vine activations, and press damage when her shields drop. Quest experience helps—this mirrors her Jade Shadows: Constellations encounter with higher enemy levels on Steel Path.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the mission called The Kuva Wytch?
Vena is Garuda's Protoframe, nicknamed the blood-drenched Wytch. Ryoku hunts her Kuva-affiliated operations in this timeline.
Can I earn Wrath blueprints here?
Wrath parts drop from Scoria's Angel, not this mission. Kuva Wytch drops Pride parts and Warframe components.
What are Bloodfrenzy units?
Ground enemies unique to Vena's ship and mission line. Scan for Codex entries and adjust damage types accordingly.
Does Santovan's Oath use cloaking?
Yes. Void Cloak and related battle avionics support stealth-oriented Railjack combat before boarding.
Should I run this mission first?
If you prioritize Sirius and Pride (Emerald line), start here. Orion/Wrath farmers should prioritize Scoria's Angel instead.
