The Valdeaunia Front is a theater of the Crystal War in Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess. It contains the northernmost territories of Quon and houses the throne of the Shadow Lord, who initiated the conflict. Control of this frozen region is therefore highly sought by the Alliance of Altana. The Dark Kindred viciously defend their master's lands, however, and compel other members of the Beastman Confederate to reinforce their positions. The front includes most of post-war Valdeaunia.
