The 13 quest steps

  1. 1Talk to Draconiros

    Dialogue · Draconiros

    The quest starts beneath the waterfall, in front of the statue of the Dofus receptacle. You ask Draconiros whether the receptacle could stop a demonic invasion: united with their guardian, the Primordial Dofus can perform almost any miracle. You then have to say what you truly wish for.

    Dialogue

    1. “Reply without hesitation that you will not allow the World of Twelve to be destroyed”
    2. “Imply that you won't oppose the demons if it is their destiny to conquer the lands of mortals”
    3. “Say that you will decide to act or stay on the sidelines when the time comes”

    A single choice, depending on the path taken in La fin… ou le commencement: the first for Meriana and Rimanda, the second for Djaul and the Norrai, the third for Septangel and Ratathrosk.

  2. 2Meet your destiny guide

    Dialogue

    Go see the character who put you on your path. He asks whether you are ready to turn toward the past and what has been forgotten, then entrusts you with a chest that only you can open, at a very specific moment.

    • Meriana's path: Meriana
    • Ratathrosk's path: Ratathrosk, in Astrub
    • Djaul's path: Djaul, at the top of the Brakmar tower
    • Norrai's path: Decimandi, in the cavern of destiny
    • Septangel's path: Septangel
    • Rimanda's path: Rimanda

    Dialogue

    1. “Reply that you've been waiting for just that”
    • Mysterious Chest iconMysterious Chestreceived
  3. 3Open the Mysterious Chest

    Double-click the Mysterious Chest in your inventory to try to open it. You are teleported to the ruins of lost dreams.

  4. 4Explore the ruins of lost dreams

    Movement

    Click on the wall ruins, in the top left corner of the map. The Persistent Pain appears.

  5. 5Face the Persistent Pain

    Combat · Persistent Pain

    Talk to it despite your suffering. The pain intensifies and the creature tries to steal your Primordial Dofus: a fight starts, alone with 2 Diabolical Onigori at your side.

    Dialogue

    1. “Insist despite the pain you feel”

    Keep both Onigori alive: they absorb the hits and above all the swords' AP removal. Alone, you will be drained of your AP. The Onigori strike in melee (Onigoric Hit, 350 Water; Onigoric Cry, 220 Earth and pushes back 2 cells) and share the damage they take with their allies for 2 turns (Shared Pain).

  6. 6Talk to the Diabolical Onigori

    Dialogue · Diabolical Onigori

    After the victory, thank the Diabolical Onigori, on behalf of him and his friend. This possessed spirit lets slip a suspicious sentence: a certain person called the Mother is watching over you, because you are one of hers. Both Onigori disappear immediately.

  7. 7Go back to see Draconiros

    Dialogue · Draconiros

    Tell him what happened. You had already been to these ruins during your journey on the Akeranzu: for Draconiros, the pain you fought represents the creator of this dreamlike land, most likely the Mère des Douleurs. He sends you to the temple of the Sacriers.

  8. 8Question Chaki Triss

    Dialogue · Chaki Triss

    Enter the Sacrier temple and clear the first room. Chaki Triss first pretends not to understand, then advises you to pray to the goddess for a sign.

    Dialogue

    1. “Question her indirectly about the persistent pain of the lost dreams”
    2. “Take him at his word and look for the best place to pray”
    Entrance to the Sacrier temple, at [-3,-4] (Crackler Mountain)
    Entrance to the Sacrier temple · [-3,-4]
  9. 9Pray to the Goddess Sacrier

    Dialogue · Goddess Sacrier

    Go to the left map and click the Class statue of Sacrier to pray. The Goddess Sacrier appears: she senses the mark of hell on you, believes you are an ally of Rushu, and perceives an aura similar to that of Grobe's Cursed Summit. To prove your good faith, you must face the power of the cursed blaze.

    Dialogue

    1. “Bow before the goddess Sacrier”
    2. “Deny having any connection with the demonic brood”
    3. “Stay silent so as not to worsen the situation and leave the temple”

    Equip the 6 Primordial Dofus before praying, otherwise you won't be able to click on the statue. To click on the Goddess, aim at her shadow or switch to transparency mode: otherwise the cursor stays on the statue.

  10. 10Get Hakamori's blessing

    Items · Hakamori

    Go back to Pandala, to the witch's hut. Her blessing lets you access the Cursed Summit.

    Dialogue

    1. “Fancy that: the lucky charm's blessing no longer has any effect”

    The Witch's Lucky Charm only lasts 30 minutes: go straight to the Cursed Summit.

  11. 11Brave the flames of the Cursed Summit

    Combat · Dark Vlad

    Go up to , through the map below. Dark Vlad knows why you have come, but first demands the Emerald Dofus you stole from him. When you refuse, he sends a horde of blazing chafers: a wave fight starts, in a group if you wish.

    Cursed Summit · [39,-46]
  12. 12Expose yourself to Mongrelamus's wrath

    Dialogue · Mongrelamus's Rage

    Talk to Dark Vlad again and kick the pile of chafer bones to provoke him. Then talk to Mongrelamus's Rage, his dark side: he suspects you of being a demon, refuses to say who you are, but reveals that the Mother of the Destroyers is burning to meet you.

    Dialogue

    1. “Move away from the cursed flames”
  13. 13Catch up with Draconiros

    · Draconiros

    Go back to the receptacle's cave. Tell Draconiros that the Goddess Sacrier and Medoroziam sensed a part of a demon in you, and that the Mother of the Destroyers is looking for you. The quest ends.
