The Entrance to Tokoyo Quest Guide

Lotus Eater Start Location

Activate the Hidden Message in The Serpent's Heart

	Step-by-Step Unlock Guide
1	Make sure Enkanomiya is in the Evernight State. If the Whitenight/Evernight Mechanism is glowing blue, that means you're already in it. If it's glowing yellow, you have to activate it first.
2	There is a cave under the Serpent's Heart that can be accessed from the side of the cliff by the Teleport Waypoint.
3	Find the stack of boxes in front of a Time Trial Challenge and a Fishing Spot. This area may have a Ruin Sentinel guarding it so be careful!
4	Interact with the wall to make the Hidden Message appear. This will show a pattern similar to the altar aboveground.
5	Follow the pattern the same way as in the puzzle in the Heart of Ouroboros quest, and go through the Phase Walls in the order shown from 1 to 5 to unlock the quest.

Important Notes for Lotus Eater

Lotus Eater Password

"After the sun, the darkness starts..."

The correct password for the Lotus Eater quest is ''After the sun, the darkness starts...'' This is the second choice you get when you talk to the afterimage.

How to Wait for the Dragonbone Flower to Condense

You will have to wait until server reset, since this is a time-locked part of the quest. Once the server reset is finished, you can continue and complete all objectives!

Ways to Use the Dragonbone Orb

After you finish this quest and get the Dragonbone Orb, you have to choice to either sell or keep it. There is no other use for the Dragonbone Orb so far, so you can sell it for some Mora and food!

Where to Sell the Dragonbone Orb

You can only sell the Dragonbone Orb at Souvenir Shops from Mondstadt, Liyue and Inazuma, all of which will offer 80000 Mora and different dishes in exchange for the orb.

Lotus Eater Objectives

Full Quest Walkthrough

	Step-by-Step Guide
1	After following our unlock guide, talk to the afterimage in the middle of the altar. He will ask you to help him remember his name.
2	Look for the stone tablet just outside of the altar. Reading this will give you information about the afterimage. Talk to the afterimage again and confirm that he is named Spartacus.
3	Spartacus will then ask you to find where the ''children are hidden.'' During this part of the quest, you must activate the Whitenight Phase in Enkanomiya, so use the Whitenight/Evernight Mechanism nearby before you leave the area!
4	The area indicated on the map will be on a platform to the side/underside of the cliff.
5	Here you will find three Triangular Mechanisms that are connected to the hanging lamps behind them. You must hit the leftmost mechanism twice, the middle mechanism twice, and the rightmost mechanism once to adjust the lamps.
6	Once you have put the hanging lamps in the right order, a doorway will appear. Go through the door and once again switch to the Evernight phase using the Whitenight/Evernight Mechanism inside.
7	Go down to the lower level, follow the stairs up to the room where an afterimage will be located beside a Common chest. Talk to the afterimage and give them the password that Spartacus gave.
8	Go to the Tokoyo Reisen by the Evernight Temple, where you will have to defeat 3 Bolteater Bathysmal Vishaps before obtaining the Waters of Lethe.
9	Go to the top of the Dragonbone Flower, near the entrance to Enkanomiya, and water it using the Waters of Lethe.
10	The quest will ask you to wait for the Dragonbone Flower to condense. You must wait until at least after the game's server reset before you can proceed with the quest.
11	Come back to the flower the next day and collect the Dragonbone Orb to complete the quest! You can pick a souvenir shop from any of the three regions to sell this to.

Triangular Mechanism Puzzle Solution

You will find three Triangular Mechanisms that are connected to the hanging lamps behind them. You must hit the mechanisms a certain number of times:

• Hit the mechanism on the left twice.
• Hit the middle mechanism twice.
• Hit the mechanism on the right once.

What to do if you lose track of the puzzle

If you lose track of the puzzle order, just hit a mechanism until this message pops up: ''This seems to be the right position.'' This will pop up for each of the mechanisms!
