This quest is crucial, as a Nightmare Echo is trapped within Fagaceae Peninsula's stormy ruins. Prepare your strongest Resonators – this is a substantial undertaking.
Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, activating the broken Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:
- Charge three steles at designated locations.
- Return and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Chase and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.
Charging the Steles
Stand on the glowing circle at each altar to charge the Discipline Steles. Enemies interrupting this process will slow progress, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar will drain its energy. Utilize the 2.0 update's enhanced elemental damage and status effects to your advantage. For the third stele set, position yourself correctly to activate the prompt and pull them into place before enemy spawns.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Use your strongest Resonators to attack the Lumiscale Construct after returning to the starting area via the Wingray. A cutscene will initiate after significantly reducing its health, leading you deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes increasingly hazardous; navigate falling debris and lightning while eliminating enemies. A final confrontation with the Construct awaits.
Confronting the Dragon of Dirge
The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable opponent capable of one-shotting characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, prioritizing stuns. The optimal strategy involves waiting for attacks to conclude before attempting a swift stun. Victory unlocks access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
