Palm Brinks is a major town in Dark Chronicle. It is located on the south end of the continent where the game takes place, and is home to the majority of the game's cast. It is Maximilian's hometown, and featured in the prologue when he visits Flotsam's circus, after which is it inaccessible as he is forced to flee and hide in the underground sewers. Later on he resurfaces and can explore part of it, and fully access the area in Chapter 2.
The people of Palm Brinks live happy carefree lives because the mayor has closed off the railroad, isolating the entire town. This effectively cuts them off from the outside world, keeping them ignorant to the changes that have occurred there.

There are two dungeons in Palms Brinks; the Underground Water Channel, which is explored in Chapter 1, and the bonus dungeon Zelmite Mine which is opened after completing the game and takes place in Chapter 8.

The river separating Palm Brinks has several fish, namely Gobblers, Heelas, and Dens. The lake has an assortment of Gummy, Nonky, Piccoly, Baku Baku, and Tarton.
