Afterwards, you must go to a high place to meet Carlotta's acquaintance, Ciaccona. You will talk to Cartethyia once more. After everything is done, you must accept the Fisalia's invitation and head to their castle.

Head to Porto-Veno to meet up with Cantarella. After the exchange of pleasantries, you must follow Cantarella to her study.

Cantarella Ascension Materials Guide

Board the Train Echo

After the long talk, Cantarella will open a deeper part of the castle, revealing a train echo. Ride this train echo to arrive at the Beohr Water. Once you do Tacet Discords will jump at you. Get ready to defeat them using Cantarella.

Cantarella Builds and Best Teams

Place Tyrvine on the Pedestal

Once you emerge out of the ruins in Beohr Waters, use the Wingray to fly towards the building in the cliff. After the cutscene, you must place Tyrvine on the pedestal. This will cause the tower to rise toward the skies, and gravity to shift.

After everything, you must leave the traction tower, and activate the Pool of Rising. Once you reach the top, summon Phaom, the Gondola. At this point, you will be prompted to choose between Cartethyia and Cantarella, but this choice does not affect the outcome, and you will ultimately go with Cartethyia.

Clear the Dark Tide Remnants

1 How to Solve the Statue's Dark Tide Puzzle

Ride your Gondola until you can reach an area with three tainted statues. After the cutscene, approach the huge statue to the left, and it'll automatically be solved through another cutscene.
2
Interact with the statue on the right to have Cartethyia purify the remnants.
3
Use the Levitator to lift the Remnant Spark from its pedestal and throw it at the vines. Note that you only need to have the vines in your line of sight to successfully aim the Remnant Spark. Board your Gondola once more toward the next puzzle!

3 Solve the Puzzle of the Next Statue - Statue 1
Head to the first statue and interact with it to have Cartethyia purify the remnants. Note that you can run to the other statues while Cartethyia is still purifying. This is useful as you only have 30 seconds before the statues become corrupted again.
4
Look for the second and third statues and interact with them as soon as possible so they would be purified in time.
5 Solve the Puzzle of the Next Statue - Original Orientation
Head back to the Gravity Calibrator and turn it to its original orientation, making sure that the light's color is blue.

5
Rush to the quest marker and Cartethyia will automatically clear all the Dark Tide. Afterwards, use the Levitator to lift the Remnant Spark from its pedestal and throw it at the vines. You can now go back to Phaom and use it to reach the Tower of Salvation.

Place Tyrvine in the Tower of Unity

Climb up using the golden shelves and grapple on the way. When you go through the Door of Utility, head to the center to release the peculiar spark. Place Tyrvine on the pedestal inside the Tower of Unity. The day ends with everyone needing to rest.

The next day, Cantarella hears something suspicious outside. Defeat all the Tacet Discords using Cantarella and Havoc Rover.

Head to the Zargon Garden

Head to the Zargon Garden using Phaom. Unfortunately, the next sword, Hognis, is nowhere to be found. By this time, Cartethyia realizes that the geography of the area isn't what it used to be. The two decide to move the waterways around before getting Hognis. Use the Wingray to go to the next objective.

Fix the Statue of Divine Justice

Jump to the Gravity Calibrator and change its orientation. Follow the quest marker using the Wingray and grapple on top of the Statue of the Divine Justice. Initiate a Plunge attack on it to put it back in its rightful place.

Cleanse the Dark Tide Remnants

1
Defeat the little draconic Tacet Discords that appear, then jump to the corrupted statue. Note that you have to transform back to Rover so you can call Cartethyia to purify it.

Jump to the next corrupted statue, and cleanse it. Note that you only have 30 seconds before the first statue becomes corrupted again.
3
Jump to the Remnant Spark. Lift it with the Levitator and throw it at the corrupted vines.
