The 20 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Kaw

   Dialogue[-11,-13] · Kaw

   The quest starts in front of the Silvosse statue, in the Dark Forest. Kaw, the raven of the Amakna forest ranger, is there without his mistress and seems in a state: something has surely happened to Cornelia.

   Dialogue

   1. “Decide to follow the raven”

   

2. 2Follow Kaw to the mine

   Movement[-4,-12] · Kaw

   Follow the raven to [-4,-12], then talk to Kaw again, who shows you the mine entrance.

   

3. 3Cross the hole maps

   Movement[-4,-12]

   Enter the mine, then climb the ladder: a series of 4 hole maps awaits you. On each map, take the right hole: the one furthest right, the furthest right again, the one at the top right, then the one at the top, in front of which Kaw is standing.

   If you pick the wrong hole, you go back to the mine entrance.

4. 4Free Cornelia Granpa

   Dialogue[-4,-12] · Cornelia Granpa

   Cornelia Granpa is held by a bramble prison: you have to help her escape. A fight starts, which can be done in a group. The map is instanced for the quest: only players at the same step as you can join you.

   Dialogue

   1. “Tackle the root of the problem”

   The Prison Bramble spell summons brambles all around you: they remove 100 MP if they start their turn in contact with you. Gnarled Embrace hits for 250 Earth, Insidious Bramble for 250 Air with 2 MP removed, Binding Brambles for 300 Fire in a cross, Exasperation for 250 Water with 2 dodgeable AP removed. Sylvan Manipulation heals 1,300 and gives 200 power in a 3×3 square, Cage Restoration heals the brambles for 255 HP.

5. 5Meet Cornelia at the mine entrance

   [-4,-12] · Cornelia Granpa

   After the fight, talk to Cornelia again, who asks you to meet her outside. At the mine entrance, she tells you about the black egg that the Ancestral Treechnid had tasked you with retrieving: he has parted with it, and Cornelia is trying to get it back. Its new owner, hooded and covered in frost, is said to come from Frigost.

6. 6Join Cornelia in Frigost

   Movement[-81,-37] · Cornelia Granpa

   Cross the Antinau Sea to the docks of Permafrost Port. Captain Ardier carried a mute traveler with a telling smell, that of the egg according to Cornelia, and Kaw senses its presence in the Lonesome Pine Trails.

   

7. 7Inspect the Lonesome Pine Trails

   [-57,-62] · Cornelia Granpa

   Talk to Cornelia again: Kaw senses something abnormal here. Talk to the Humus gelé, which gives off a nauseating smell, then talk to it a second time to give it a good kick.

   

8. 8Fight the enraged animals

   Combat[-57,-62]

   Enraged animals attack you. The fight can be done in a group, and Cornelia Granpa fights on your side: you control her.

   Opposing spells: Iced Chestnut (240 Air, swaps places, in melee), Acorn Balancing (steals 2 MP, pushes back 4 cells), Propulsive Acorn (200 Fire, pushes back 3 cells, in a line from 6 to 8 range), Clawing (300 Earth and 50% less Earth resistance for 2 turns, in melee), Weakening (250 Water, minimizes random effects, at exactly 5 range), Piggy Carnage (300 Fire, pushes back 2 cells, in melee), Irritating Harassment (200 Neutral, 2 dodgeable AP removed, up to 8 range). Roar and Piggy Boost give about 55 damage to allies, Piggy Healing heals 350 HP.

9. 9Question the Asfog et Fils company agent

   Dialogue[-58,-69] · Ego Flagship Company Agent

   Cornelia is adamant: this attack was a trap set by the egg's new owner. Follow Kaw's nose to [-58,-69] : the agent saw the hooded individual head toward Alma's Cradle to take the carrier.

   To reach Alma's Cradle, you must have completed Antiroyalist and The Crown Jewels. To be transported to the Petrified Forest, you must also have completed It's Cold But It Doesn't Matter.

   

10. 10Board for the Petrified Forest

    Movement[-56,-74] · Ego Flagship Company Agent

    At the Frigostian carrier, talk to the other company agent: he took a gloomy character to the Petrified Forest.

    Dialogue

    1. “Ask him about a passenger giving off a nauseating smell”
    2. “Board for this destination”

11. 11Find the frozen map

    Movement

    On arrival, talk to Cornelia: Kaw has lost the trail. On the same map, inspect the small rock at the foot of the trunk, to the left of the carrier: you find an old frozen map there. Show it to Cornelia, who spots a circled spot in the northwest of the forest.

12. 12Attend the ceremony

    Dialogue[-82,-73]

    Enter the ruins and go through the first room heading right. Talk to Cornelia again, then listen to the Dark Thaumaturge: he turns givrefoux into plants. Keep listening to the Black Fungus Disciple, a Sadida from the Corruption's Kingdom who brandishes the black egg.

    Dialogue

    1. “Defend yourself against the attack with Cornelia's help”

    

13. 13Defeat the bloater and the infected

    Combat[-82,-73]

    A wave fight starts, solo with your companion, alongside Cornelia Granpa, whom you control. Wave 1: 2 Infected Chosen Ones. Wave 2, after 2 turns: 3 Infected Chosen Ones and 1 Infected Bloater. Wave 3, after 7 turns: 2 Infected Chosen Ones.

    Avoid Clikheart's Cry from the chosen ones in the Offering to Death state: Cornelia's Volley of Feathers spell pushes them back and removes MP from them. Hit the Infected Bloater with Fire to stop it from protecting itself.

    • Infected Chosen Onefight · level 180 · 6,500 HP · 14 AP · 6 MP

14. 14Join Korriander's Lair

    Movement[-73,-69] · Tray Beard

    Talk to Cornelia again after the fight, then once more at the exit of the ruins: Kaw has picked up the Sadida's trail, heading toward Korriander's Lair. At the dungeon entrance, Tray Beard confirms that the fugitive has just gone in.

    Dialogue

    1. “Briefly describe the fugitive you are chasing”

    

15. 15Craft the Sylvaspirit Essence

    Crafting

    Before entering the dungeon, it is recommended to have 1 Sylvaspirit Essence crafted by an alchemist of level 180 or higher: 20 Still Water, 4 Fistulina Volva, 4 Dramanita Gill, 4 Serpula Flake, 4 Fungore Gill and 4 Treecherous Bark. 1 Korriander Essence will also do.

    The recipe is only possible after talking to Tray Beard.

    • Sylvaspirit Essencereceived

16. 16Defeat Korriander

    Combat[-73,-69]

    Do the Korriander's Lair dungeon and defeat the Korriander in its room.

    Don't leave right away once the boss is defeated: the rest of the quest takes place in the dungeon.

    • Korrianderfight · level 180 · 9,700 to 14,000 HP · 15 AP · 6 MP

17. 17Follow Kaw into the mystified temple

    Movement[-73,-69] · Kaw

    After the fight, talk to Kaw. You find the Black Fungus Disciple in the middle of a ritual: her spell hurts you but has no effect on Cornelia. The fanatic then gives her life and turns into a mushroom.

    Dialogue

    1. “Follow Kaw into the depths of the mystified temple”

18. 18Purify the mystified temple

    Dialogue[-73,-69]

    Examine the small white mushrooms in a circle around the central pedestal. With your Sylvaspirit Essence or your Korriander Essence, click on them again.

    Dialogue

    1. “Pour a Sylvaspirit Essence”

    Without the essence, go out and craft it, then come back to this room by talking to the NPC at the entrance.

    • 1 × Sylvaspirit Essenceto hand over

19. 19Talk to Korria

    Dialogue[-73,-69] · Korria

    Four little gods appear. Korria, one of the last gods of the Mystified Forest, tells you how the eternal winter gave birth to Kordispec, the master of parasitic mushrooms. She entrusts the black egg to Cornelia to hand over to the Master.

20. 20Talk to Cornelia Granpa

    Dialogue[-73,-69] · Cornelia Granpa

    The Master is the Lord Crow: it was his magic that protected Cornelia. She thanks you and leaves for Cania to hand him the egg. The quest ends.
