Gameplay Notes

  • Co-Op Mode is locked during several steps in this quest involving the quest's gameplay mechanics. Quitting the game, leaving the area (may require teleportation), or failing the challenge (if applicable) will usually reset the quest to a reset point and allow access to Co-Op Mode.
    • The quest cannot be reset during step 12.
    • Co-Op Mode may still be available even if the icon shows otherwise. The icon will correctly display that Co-Op Mode is available after restarting the game.
  • Step 3 unlocks access to the eastern part of the Guitzli Ridge Inner Cavern: Northern Zone map layer. This is lost if the quest is reset to step 1.
  • Step 12 unlocks access to the rest of the Guitzli Ridge Inner Cavern: Northern Zone map layer and the Guitzli Ridge Inner Cavern: Western Zone map layer.
  • During step 4, the Soothing Salve that is initially presented as a drink can be shot to recover while it is still on the bartop, before the Alpaca Boss says "Use the Soothing Salve, *meh*!" and moves the Soothing Salve to the floor. If it is shot while it is still on the bartop, a second Soothing Salve will spawn and move to the floor when the Alpaca Boss says "Use the Soothing Salve, *meh*!"

Media:vo yqeq404 2 alpacasheriff 05.ogg Alpaca Sheriff: Well, it's a long story. Anyway, you all made quite the journey to get here. Why don't we head over to the bar for a quick drink?

Media:vo yqeq404 4 alpacasheriff 06.ogg Alpaca Sheriff: But this place is under heavy watch. I'll be a sitting duck if I go alone. So, I need some backup.

(After the sheriff stops)
Media:vo yqeq404 5 chasca 06.ogg Chasca: The sheriff stopped. Must be enemies up ahead.
Media:vo yqeq404 5 chasca 07.ogg Chasca: Shoot that bottle over there. We need to draw them out of their hiding places.
(After shooting a bottle of Soothing Salve)
(Two Nochtli Lackeys come out to investigate)

(After defeating the first seven enemies)
Media:vo yqeq404 5 chasca 14.ogg Chasca: ...♪
Media:vo yqeq404 5 chasca 15.ogg Chasca: Oh, sorry, that wasn't meant to be a taunt. It's kind of a qucusaur SOS.
Media:vo yqeq404 5 chasca 16.ogg Chasca: Ah, man. You're a tough opponent, that's for sure. Must have done it on instinct.

(After completing the challenge)
(If the player hit more targets than Chasca)
Media:vo yqeq404 6 chasca 01.ogg Chasca: Hmph, wow, you won, (‍Traveler‍). You're a pretty good shot. Almost seems like you've done this before.
(If the player hit less targets than Chasca)
Media:vo yqeq404 6 chasca 04.ogg Chasca: Too bad, you handled that gun pretty well. Guess you just haven't had enough chances to practice.
Media:vo yqeq404 6 chasca 02.ogg Chasca: Here, let me teach you how to fire off rapid bursts of bullets. It might come in handy someday.
Media:vo yqeq404 6 bennett 01.ogg Bennett: Oh, shoot!

Media:vo yqeq404 6 bennett 02.ogg Bennett: I got distracted for a split second, and now the Sheriff's been caught...

Media:vo yqeq404 9 chasca 02.ogg Chasca: Truth is, the leader never planned to fight us. All that talk was just a distraction — a way to create an opening. He was planning to make a run for it all along.

Media:vo yqeq404 13 mualani 02.ogg Mualani: I mean... those Hilichurl Rogues could be actors in costume. But, there shouldn't be any actual Abyssal monsters here, right?
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 05.ogg Chasca: Yeah, there's no way that's meant to be part of the experience.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Plus, the way we came in is blocked now. Everything was fine until the monsters showed up...
Media:vo yqeq404 13 bennett 03.ogg Bennett: Oh no... My bad luck must be back... and I'm dragging everyone down with me...
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 06.ogg Chasca: Hey, don't think like that.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 bennett 04.ogg Bennett: ...
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 07.ogg Chasca: Abyssal monsters can appear for many reasons. Being attracted by someone or... something is certainly one possibility.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 08.ogg Chasca: Now isn't the time to blame ourselves. We should focus on identifying any hidden dangers instead.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 09.ogg Chasca: We still don't know what might have happened outside the cave.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 bennett 05.ogg Bennett: You're right. Okay, I'll take the lead and scout ahead!
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 10.ogg Chasca: Hah, sorry. I'm gonna have to call dibs on that one.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 11.ogg Chasca: We should do this the Natlan way. As the most mobile member of the team, leave the scouting to me. It happens to be a Flower-Feather Clan specialty.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 chasca 12.ogg Chasca: Alright, I'll go check on the situation outside. See you soon.
Media:vo yqeq404 13 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Wait but, the cave's still...

Beautifully-Written Notes
I noticed Macani's gone another night without sleeping... I'm afraid he's still trying to figure out how to break the truth to his friends. Naturally, I know where he's coming from. It's troubled me for many days as well. As his wife, and as one of the first members of the team...

I can still see the past when I close my eyes, like it happened yesterday.

Rumors spoke of a young man traveling from place to place, seeking kindred spirits to form an adventure team. Out of curiosity, I found a vantage point from which I could catch a glimpse of him. But nobody cared for some brash upstart from the Collective of Plenty, so there were few people around him... leaving me as his most conspicuous spectator.

His speech wasn't bad. He wasn't the sort who loved to flatter others, and his words were simple and sincere. He believed in himself and his goal. Like a wildfire, brave and fearless... I can't recall all the details by now, but I know that his excitement infected me.

Still, nobody applauded him, and no one spoke to him. Watching the noisy crowd leave him behind, the man merely smiled and sighed, then he bent down to pick up his backpack. It looked like he didn't plan on staying.

"Maybe I should try my luck with the Flower-Feather Clan," he said.

I was worried that he'd be disappointed. After all, we of the Masters of the Night-Wind are not exactly avid adventure-seekers.

He looked over his shoulder at me, and I saw no trace of dejection in his eyes. He thanked me with a smile, his resolve unshaken — as if the cold shoulders were mere brambles by the roadside, and every hardship just an interlude on his grand adventure.

How can someone live life with a spirit so fiery and clear? I've always been curious about lifestyles that differ from mine.

Later, Chaco joined us, and then Anja from the People of the Springs.

I still remember that extraordinarily hot summer. Anja suggested holding a bonfire party at her house, and we practically leapt into getting it ready. The joy of meeting new companions and the anticipation of setting out for our future adventures combined had us drinking more than our fair share. When it was time to name our adventure team... the suggestions were about as coherent as you could expect.

After someone tossed out the "Victorious Scorching Halberds," Macani raised the suggestion of calling us "Tecpatl's Flintblades."

Anja asked why he didn't want a grander name, and Macani responded by saying that his dream was not to become a hero, and so he needed no such ceremony. That shocked us enough that we all sobered up slightly.

Macani went on to explain that this land had no shortage of heroes, and so what he wanted to do was forge a path for future generations to take, allowing embers of the future to grow and shine...

Tecpatl's Flintblades, the inheritance of embers... It was a beautiful name, and full of meaning.

Nowadays, it seems to describe us perhaps too well.


We were the ones who wanted to spread the name of the Flintblades throughout Teyvat, but that dream's yet to come true. Once we had our child, we were the first to turn back...

For the friends who trusted us and accompanied us on all our adventures thus far, our decision is undoubtedly a selfish one.

But as parents, what could be more important than protecting our child as he grows up?

After all this time together, we already sense what our friends' answers will be — yet it does nothing to dull the guilt within. Saying farewell has never been an easy choice, least of all for our leader.

Or perhaps this is just another sort of adventure for us. Right now, it's my turn to give Macani courage, after he did the same to me in the past.

...

Our friends said they knew this day would come... They teased us for a while, but my heart doesn't feel as heavy anymore. Macani looks to be in better spirits, too.

Anja suggested organizing a final farewell trip so we can enjoy one last holiday together... That's just like her. She knows how to keep everyone happy and doesn't want us to leave with any regrets.

It's time to get busy again. Aside from all the packing, I'd like to prepare some special gifts for my friends.

Oh, right, I should also find a new album so I can store more pictures from our travels.

Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 04.ogg Chasca: I mean, there was cause for concern — I was worried, too.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 05.ogg Chasca: Even though I didn't see any other Abyssal monsters on the way here, I didn't let my guard down.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 06.ogg Chasca: Under normal circumstances, I would've taken the shot without hesitation. With Soulsniper on my side, I'm confident I could get to the hostage no problem, even if the hostile tried to harm them.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 07.ogg Chasca: But this time, it seemed like our enemy was tainted by the Abyss, so we couldn't afford to take any chances. We had to factor in the worst-case scenario.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 08.ogg Chasca: So, the only option was for (‍Traveler‍) and I to strike at the same time, ensuring we took down the villain and rescued the hostage in one fell swoop.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 paimon 07.ogg Paimon: Wow, good thing you two got a chance to work on your teamwork against those lackeys earlier...
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 09.ogg Chasca: In hindsight, it's clear the only place where things went wrong was that cave.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 mualani 04.ogg Mualani: So, since we cleared out those monsters already, we're in the clear?
Media:vo yqeq404 20 chasca 10.ogg Chasca: We should be.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 nanasian 06.ogg "Nanasian": Sorry, I don't follow. By "cave," you're not referring to somewhere inside one of our amusement facilities, are you...?
Media:vo yqeq404 20 mualani 05.ogg Mualani: Yeah, we came across an adventurer camp inside the cave. Y'know, near the spot where the Sheriff snuffs it... Oh, um, sorry. That came out a little harsh...
Media:vo yqeq404 20 nanasian 07.ogg "Nanasian": But... There's no cave or camp anywhere near there...
Media:vo yqeq404 20 nanasian 08.ogg "Nanasian": You sure it wasn't your eyes playing tricks on you?
Media:vo yqeq404 20 bennett 03.ogg Bennett: No, definitely not. First, we were ambushed by monsters, then we even read through the adventurer's notes. There's no way it was just an illusion.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 bennett 04.ogg Bennett: Oh, we even have evidence! The scratch on my arm is still there! Haha, guess there was a silver lining to getting hurt, after all.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 nanasian 09.ogg "Nanasian": Huh? But... that can't be...
Media:vo yqeq404 20 nanasian 10.ogg "Nanasian": Villa Guiztli's meant to be a fully immersive experience. There's no way we'd leave in design flaws that didn't fit the theme...
Media:vo yqeq404 20 paimon 08.ogg Paimon: That's... actually a good point.
Media:vo yqeq404 20 paimon 09.ogg Paimon: So, is something else going on here, then? Paimon's getting a bad feeling all of a sudden...

Media:vo yqeq404 24 chasca 01.ogg Chasca: Yeah, I don't think we're gonna see a single coin of that. If they actually had to cough up Mora every time he got captured, Villa Guiztli would have gone under a long time ago.
Media:vo yqeq404 24 nanasian 02.ogg "Nanasian": Hehe, exactly! The prize isn't real Mora, just a commemorative Mora-shaped chocolate coin stamped with that number.
Media:vo yqeq404 24 nanasian 03.ogg "Nanasian": But since the chocolates aren't ready yet, I'll give you some Easybreeze Badges you can exchange for other items of your choice.
