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

While the main storyline in Rinascita, Wuthering Waves, unfolds across the region, intriguing locations are reserved for exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to quell a massive storm in Rinascita's northeast.

Although optional, completing this quest is highly recommended, as a Nightmare Echo in WuWa 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 ruined base south of Shores of Last Breath, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Energize three steles at designated locations.
2. Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Pursue and engage the Lumiscale Construct.
4. Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (final encounter).
5. Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.

Energizing the Steles

The Discipline Steles on the marked altars charge while standing on the central glowing circle. Enemies interrupting this process will hinder progress; eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar will cause energy depletion.

Utilize the 2.0 update's elemental damage enhancements and status effects to your advantage.

For the third stele set, position them before enemy spawns. If grabbing the broken steles proves difficult, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.

Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct

Use your strongest Resonators to attack the Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will trigger after significantly reducing its health, prompting you to follow it deeper into the ruins.

The environment becomes more hazardous during the chase; beware falling debris and lightning, eliminating all enemies. A final confrontation with the Construct awaits.

Confronting the Dragon of Dirge

This formidable foe can easily stunlock or one-shot characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for stuns. Prioritize stunning it after its major attacks.

Victory over the dragon concludes the quest, unlocking access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
