The 14 quest steps

  1. 1Talk to the Melancholic Pandawa

    Dialogue · Melancholic Pandawa

    At Akwadala, the Pandawa seems to be mute. She tries to communicate by folding an origami, without much success.

    Dialogue

    1. “Say hello and ask her what she is doing”
    2. “Offer to find an origami master to help her”

  2. 2Meet Pandako Shazaki

    Dialogue · Pandako Shazaki

    This origami expert explains that the Pandawa must fold a swane, the basis of origamist training. She gives you a book explaining how to do it and recommends wazhi paper, but her last paper order never arrived.

    Dialogue

    1. “Say that you met a melancholic Pandawa who is trying to create paper birds but isn't really managing”

    Click on the broken box in the center of the map. The paper convoy was attacked, and the attackers seem to have headed north-west.

  4. 4Defeat Fougo

    Combat · Fougo

    Fougo is busy trying to burn a sheet of paper: he is one of the convoy thieves. A fight starts, solo. After the victory, you get the Box of Wazhi Paper.

  7. 7Confront Vonbartroth in Grobe

    Combat · Vonbartroth

    Grobe is reached by boat at . This spirit presents himself as a terrible sorcerer: he drowned in Akwadala because of the Pandawa and wants revenge. A fight starts against the specters of the drowned, solo.

    Dialogue

    1. “Return his gaze, adding a good dose of suspicion”
    2. “Ignore his threats and ask whether he knows a mute Pandawa”
    3. “Inquire about the reason for such a stubborn grudge”

    Rather tricky fight: play at long range (more than 12 range) or with healing. The enemy spells reach 12 range without line of sight: they remove Water resistance, 2 AP and 2 MP, AP and MP dodge, and poison with Water; at close range, they whack for 400 Water while stealing life, range or vitality.

  8. 8Listen to Vonbartroth's confession

    Dialogue · Vonbartroth

    Talk to him again: when he was alive, he wanted to sacrifice the Pandawa during a magic ceremony, but she defended herself and a flock of swanes hurled him into the water.

  9. 9Go back to see the Melancholic Pandawa

    Dialogue · Melancholic Pandawa

    Tell him that you met the sorcerer responsible for his misfortune, but that you could do nothing.

  10. 10Fold the thousandth swane

    Dialogue · Pandako Shazaki

    Pandako Shazaki has just arrived: a garland of a thousand swanes would let the Pandawa fulfill her wish and get rid of the curse. You must fold the last one yourself, following these choices in order.

    Dialogue

    1. “Get cross-shaped folds”
    2. “Get star-shaped folds”
    3. “Get a diamond shape”
    4. “Fold back three times and unfold”
    5. “Start sweating but stay focused”
    6. “Turn over, fold back, fold back inverting, flatten”
    7. “Keep your cool and follow her instructions to the letter”

  11. 11Reach the ink realm

    Movement

    All that remains is to erase an ancient word that seals the curse, in the ink realm area. Two ways in: the Wukang sanctuary at (enter the cave and go right), or the Wukin sanctuary at , by the Highland Kwak. Leave the sanctuary to arrive in the realms.

    • Wukang sanctuary: enter the cave, then go right
    • Wukin sanctuary, access through the Highland Kwak

    First visit: talk to Daoh in one of the sanctuaries (“More Info about this place”). For the first question, the nature of your fire: “The White Fire” for Ecaflip, Eniripsa, Iop, Cra, Feca, Sacrier, Eliotrope; “The Black Fire” for Sadida, Osamodas, Enutrof, Sram, Xelor, Pandawa, Rogue, Masqueraider, Foggernaut, Ouginak; “The White Fire and the Black Fire” for Huppermage, Forgelance. For the second, about the creator of the Kingdom of Paper: “The dragon of Pandala.” The Iroru Symbol you obtain then opens the realms at will; to come back to Pandala, ask Daoh for it again in a sanctuary.

  14. 14Announce the good news

    Dialogue · Melancholic Pandawa

    Tell the Pandawa that she is freed from the curse. She transforms: talk to the Delivered Swane. The Pandawa was actually a swane, and the quest ends.
