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 Honkai: Star Rail's Rinascita region within Wuthering Waves unfolds across most of the area, some compelling locations are reserved for exploration quests. One such quest, "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms," challenges players to dispel a massive storm in Rinascita's northeastern reaches.
This optional quest is highly recommended, especially considering 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 exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:
- Energize three steles in designated locations.
- Return and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Chase and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.
Energizing the Steles
The Discipline Steles on the marked altars charge while standing on the central glowing circle. Enemies interrupting this process will slow progress, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar causes energy depletion.
Utilize the 2.0 update's enhanced elemental damage and status effects to your advantage.
For the third stele set, quickly position them before enemy spawns. If interaction is difficult, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Use your team's most powerful Resonators to attack the Lumiscale Construct after returning to the starting point via the Wingray. A cutscene triggers upon reaching a low health threshold, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins.
The environment becomes increasingly hazardous during the chase, featuring falling debris and lightning. Eliminate all enemies encountered. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits.
The Dragon of Dirge
The Dragon of Dirge is exceptionally dangerous, capable of one-shotting characters. Dodge its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for stuns. Prioritize stunning it after its major attacks.
Defeating the dragon completes the quest, unlocking access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
