Conquer the Tempest: A Complete Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" in Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves
While the main storyline in Rinascita, Wuthering Waves, covers most of the region, hidden gems await in exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to subdue a powerful storm in Rinascita's northeast.
This optional quest is highly recommended, as a Nightmare Echo is trapped within Fagaceae Peninsula's stormy ruins. Prepare your strongest Resonators; this is a significant undertaking.
Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the ruined Lumiscale Construct south of Shores of Last Breath. The objectives are:
- Activate three steles at designated locations.
- Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (first encounter).
- Chase and defeat the Lumiscale Construct (second encounter).
- Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.
Activating the Steles
Stand on the glowing circle at each altar to charge the Discipline Steles. Enemies disrupt charging, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar drains its energy. Utilize the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update. For the third stele set, strategically position yourself to activate them before enemy spawns.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Use your strongest Resonators to attack the Construct. A cutscene triggers when its health is low, prompting you to pursue it deeper into the ruins. Be wary of falling debris and lightning strikes while navigating the increasingly hostile environment. A final confrontation awaits, ending the Construct's threat.
Confronting the Dragon of Dirge
This formidable foe can easily stunlock or one-shot characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for quick stuns. Prioritize stunning the dragon between its powerful attacks. Victory unlocks access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis.
