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

While the main storyline in Rinascita, Wuthering Waves, covers most of the region, hidden gems await within optional exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to quell a massive storm in Rinascita's northeast. This quest is crucial for accessing a Nightmare Echo within the storm-ravaged Fagaceae Peninsula ruins. Prepare your strongest Resonators; this is a significant 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, activating the broken Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Charge three Discipline Steles at designated locations.
2. Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Chase and defeat the Lumiscale Construct (again).
4. Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.

Charging the Steles

Stand on the glowing circle at each altar to charge the Discipline Steles. Enemies disrupt charging, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar drains its energy. Utilize the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update. For the third stele set, maneuver to activate the prompt and position them before enemy spawns.

Chase and Defeat the Lumiscale Construct

Use your strongest Resonators to defeat the Lumiscale Construct. A cutscene triggers after significantly reducing its health, prompting you to pursue it deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes more hazardous; navigate falling debris and lightning strikes while eliminating enemies. A final confrontation with the Construct awaits.

The Dragon of Dirge

The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable foe capable of one-shotting characters. Evade its breath attacks and falling stars, aiming for stuns. Prioritize stunning it after its powerful attacks. Victory unlocks access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis.
