You can find Shirley in the Asphodel, where she can be heard mumbling to herself. Speak to her to go through a series of multi-choice options between you and her.
| Prompt 1 | ||
|---|---|---|
| I am just an archeologist! Passion has nothing to do with my studies! | ||
| Response | Impression | Points |
| Passion is the will to unravel what you really want. | Benefit | +3 |
| Passion is the force that sustains life itself. | Wisdom | +3 |
| Passion is the unspoken that hides from the light of day. | Chaos | +3 |
| Prompt 2 | ||
| That's an interesting take. Can you help me get what passion really means? | ||
| Response | Effect | |
| (Accept) | Dialogue continues | |
| (Refuse) | Conversation ends (Repeatable) |
|
| Prompt 3 | ||
| Of course! A Brief Analysis of the Customer Flow in Icelake's Taverns, The Craft and Evolution of Drink-Brewing in Asphodel, or Observational Records of the Luno Naming Itself the Demon King. Which one would you like to read? | ||
| Response | Impression | Points |
| For an academic report, it doesn't really sound that academic. | Chaos | +3 |
| Tell me... Has any of your work to do with true archaeology? | Empathy | +3 |
| Prompt 4 | ||
| Well, what choice have I? Nothing lies beneath the snow of Icelake. Then how am I supposed to write a proper archaeology report? | ||
| Response | Impression | Points |
| That's it — you see nothing up top and give up right away. No wonder the investor said he can't feel any passion. | Morality | +3 |
| Prompt 5 | ||
| It's not like I want it this way! Passion, what is it? I am sure I haven't found it here in Icelake. | ||
| Response | ||
| Impression Check Perhaps you need a proper guide. (Morality Check - Difficulty: 55) |

|
| Prompt 6 | ||
| How about... you take me around and see if we can find some inspiration. Of all the regulars at the Asphodel, you look like the one who drinks the least and reads the most. | ||
| Response | Impression | Points |
| Alright, let's see if we can dig up some inspiration for you. | Empathy | +3 |
| Pay up and I'll help you brainstorm. | Benefit | +3 |
| You came to the right person — I am the top-notch intellectual. Now share some of your research funding with me and I shall help you. | Chaos | +3 |
Your conversation with Shirley consists of 6 prompts. Each response gives Impression points based on your choice. There will also be one Impression check you need to meet to continue the conversation. Do note that you can return to this quest again if you fail to meet the requirement.

After your initial conversation with Shirley in the Asphodel, she will next be found in the Icelake Sewers. Head to the area, where you can go through multiple doors to reach her. Talking to her will again move her to a different location, which is the City Wall Gates.

Head to the Eastern District in Icelake by fast traveling to the Icelake Sewers point in the map. From there, you can climb up the building to your right and head directly towards Shirley atop the City Walls.
| Prompt 1 | ||
|---|---|---|
| How blind I was! Wait, could you be the true hidden archaeology master in Icelake? | ||
| Response | Impression | Points |
| I was hoping to keep a low profile... | Chaos | +3 |
| I'm just an ordinary Phoxhunter passing by | Morality | +3 |
| Spare me your flattery. My reward — now. | Benefit | +3 |
There will be a prompt during Shirley's conversation with the player. Each one gives extra Impression points depending on the response.

The last step in this quest is to return to Shirley just near the City Gates of Icelake. This is close to where you last met her. Just head south and go over the wall. You will then see two grappling points you can use to reach her.
