Walkthrough

There are 2 distinct paths to this mission and they can be done in either order.

Emerald Waters (San d'Oria Path)

Vicissitudes
Descendants of a Line Lost
Louverance
Jugner Forest

Memories of a Maiden (Windurst Path)

Comedy Of Errors, (Act I)
Comedy of Errors, (Act II)
  • Head to (E-7) in Windurst Waters (South Map Home Point #3) and speak with Honoi-Gomoi to receive the Key ItemCracked Mimeo Mirror
  • Head back to Windurst Walls (Home Point #1) and speak with Yoran-Oran (E-5) again.
  • Travel to (K-8) in Attohwa Chasm and look for a spot marked as "Loose Sand".
    • Fastest way there is to use Unity Concord level 125 warp.
    • To reach K-8 you'll have to walk around Parradamo Tor: Start north, proceed north-east, then south until you reach L-8. From L-8, walk west to reach K-8 and the Loose Sand.
  • Clicking the Loose Sand spawns an NM Antlion called Lioumere.
    • After it uses a TP move (like Sandblast or Sandtrap), it will return to the Loose Sand and recover all its HP. Sleep, Bind, Stun, Gravity and a multitude of other Enfeebles will work on it to prevent it from returning to the Loose Sand.

WARNING - READ THE FOLLOWING FOUR POINTS AFTER DEFEATING THE NM BUT BEFORE CLICKING ON THE LOOSE SAND TARGETABLE LOCATION A SECOND TIME!!!

  1. You will receive a Key ItemMimeo Jewel after clicking the Loose Sand targetable location.
  2. You will have exactly 30 earth minutes to climb to the top of Parradamo Tor and reach the Cradle of Rebirth before the jewel breaks.
  3. The jewel will also IMMEDIATELY BREAK upon using a Mount, zoning, or disconnecting.
  4. If the jewel breaks, you will need to return to the Loose Sand and obtain another Key ItemMimeo Jewel. You will not have to re-fight the NM. This can be quite frustrating for a lot of players because the path to the top is not clearly defined and falling off may mean 30 minutes or more of lost progress.
  • After reading the points above, stand directly on top of the Loose Sand to obtain your Key ItemMimeo Jewel.
  • Make your way up Parradamo Tor.
  • Once you reach the top with your jewel (and sanity!) intact, check the Cradle of Rebirth to obtain 3 Key Items: Key Item Mimeo Feather, Key Item Second Mimeo Feather, and Key Item Third Mimeo Feather.
  • Before leaving, if you have any progress on Adoulin missions, go to northwest of the Cradle of Rebirth to interact with the Geomagnetic Fount, so that you can teleport back to this peak anytime.
Exit Stage Left
Attohwa Chasm
