Archon Quest Chapter 2: Act 1 Quest Guide
Approach the unnamed Shrine Maiden standing by the Kitsune Statues north of Konda Village. Afterwards, use the power of Electro on the Sky Kitsune Statue and obtain the ward.
At Hanachirusato's request, go to Konda Village and ask the locals for information to know more about the barrier surrounding the village.
| Local | Location & Information |
|---|---|
| Futaba |  Futaba is located a couple of steps away from the village entrance. She's standing by the gully, nearby the Village Chief's house. Futaba will tell you about a strange noise and floating bags in the village gully. |
| Takeru |  Takeru is on the roof of the house beside Tejima. It's on the other side of the road from Konda Densuke's house. He will tell you about the broken cart at the entrance of the valley. |
| Saimon Eri |  Saimon Eri is the old woman sitting by the tomato orchard, a few paces away from the Teleport Waypoint in Konda Village. She'll tell you about the mora scattered inside the dry well behind the village chief's house. |
| Konda Densuke |  You can optionally talk to Konda Densuke in the middle of this objective, but the next objective that asks you to talk to him will no longer appear, if you do so prematurely. |
You can immediately look for the clues as soon as you obtain them from the locals.
Ask the Locals for Information Guide
If you haven't talked to Konda Densuke during the previous objective, trace your steps back to Futaba's location and head over to the chief's house by crossing the small bridge over the gully, and talk to him.
After speaking to one local, you have the option to check out their clues based on the hint they provided when you have first spoken to any of them. Alternatively, you can talk to all the locals first before checking out their hints and looking for the clues.
| Local | Location & Information |
|---|---|
| Cargo Bag Fished Out from Water | From Futaba's location, press forward until you see a small bridge. Make a sharp left from this bridge and walk against the direction of the river stream, until you see a broken-down pile of woods. Obtain the cargo bag sitting atop it. |
| Ragged List of Goods | Walk over to the village entrance until you see the hilichurl mob standing by the broken cart. Simply defeat them then obtain the ragged list of goods from the cart. |
| Purse by the Dried-Up Well | Simply walk around the village chief's house until you spot the dried-up well. The purse is placed just behind it, inside an empty, half-buried wooden pail. |
After obtaining all the clues, bring them over to Konda Densuke then cut a deal with the village chief. He will give in eventually, and tell you about his diary he placed on his roof.
The diary is placed inside the nest of a bird. It tells of a broken house across the gully on the east side of the village in which the key to the well is hidden.
Go to the east side of the village until you spot a mob of Nobushis gathering around the broken house. Defeat them to obtain the old key.
Go back to Konda Desuke's house in Konda Village, and descend into the well. Use the old key you obtained from the broken house in east side of the village.
| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Get the Exquisite Chest a few steps away the ladder you just descended from. Then, head towards the Electro boulder and apply Pyro to make it explode. |
| 2 | Head through the passageway, until you see a small cavern with a number of wooden ledges, an Electro Seelie, and a Thunder Sakura Bough. You can follow the Seelie for a common chest and quick guide towards a small opening blocked by crates to get the Electroculus. Or, you can summon the Electrogranum from the Sakura Bough to pass through the Electro barrier at the bottom. |
| 3 | Once inside the underbelly chamber, place the ward on the empty lantern in front of the Shrine Gate. This will activate the Konda Village Shrine Puzzle. Solving the puzzle will summon an Ochimusha, an enemy patterned from the Kairagi. |

Ummm...I wanted to find out how to get the Memento Lens. But the walk through didn't mention it. It's not in the rewards either. Did I miss it?

Weird that the first step in this quest chain appeared with a few days time limit in my journal, as if it were an event quest. But as soon as I did the first dialog, the time limit disappeared.
