Conquer the Tempest: A Complete Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" in Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves

While Rinascita's main storyline unfolds across the region, hidden gems await within its exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms," a quest located in Rinascita's northeastern reaches, challenges players to dispel a formidable storm. 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 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, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Charge three steles at designated locations.
2. Return and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Chase and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
4. 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 hinder progress; eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar causes energy depletion. Utilize the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update to your advantage. 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 defeat the Lumiscale Construct. A cutscene triggers upon significantly reducing its health, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins. Navigating this treacherous environment requires caution; watch out for falling debris and lightning strikes while eliminating enemies. The final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct occurs further within the ruins.

The Dragon of Dirge

This boss is incredibly dangerous, capable of stunlocking or one-shotting characters. Evade its breath attacks 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 in the northern arena.
