Conquer the Tempest: A Complete Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" in Honkai: Star Rail

While the main storyline in Rinascita, Wuthering Waves, unfolds across the region, hidden gems await within optional exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to quell a raging storm in Rinascita's northeastern corner. This quest is highly recommended, especially considering a Nightmare Echo is trapped within the storm-ravaged ruins of Fagaceae Peninsula. Prepare your strongest Resonators; this is a substantial undertaking.

Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough

This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, activating the broken Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Energize three steles at designated locations.
2. Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Pursue and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
4. Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (final encounter).
5. Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.

Energizing the Steles

The Discipline Steles on the marked altars charge while standing on the central glowing circle. Enemies interrupting this process will hinder progress; eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar will cause energy depletion. Utilize the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update to your advantage. For the third stele set, quickly position them before enemy spawns. If interaction is difficult, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.

Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct

Use your strongest Resonators to defeat the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will trigger after significantly reducing its health, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes increasingly hazardous; navigate falling debris and lightning while eliminating enemies. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits.

Confronting the Dragon of Dirge

This formidable foe can inflict significant damage, potentially one-shotting characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for quick stuns. Prioritize stunning the dragon between its powerful attacks. Victory unlocks access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
