How to start the Echoes of the Ancient World quest
To unlock the Echoes of the Ancient World quest, you must first complete the other missions:
- go through the whole chain "Paintings. Dreams. Mechanical dog.";
- complete Melusina's past quest “This is not pumpkin soup for you…”.
В Merusi village at the age to the lower level of the settlement, find Melusina Verenata and talk to her to listen to her request and start the Echoes of the Ancient World quest. According to her, the previous experiment helped to find a use for the potion of truth. The teacher Carabosse went to Tobia, who was interested in the potion, but forgot to take the bottle with her.
Walkthrough of Echoes of the Ancient World quest in Genshin Impact
At the request of Verenata, go in search of the alchemist Carabosse and the melusine Tobia, who is preparing for the departure of her friend Mamer.
Find Carabosse
Carabosse and Tobia are in the "Very bright place" location next to the giant shell. To get to it, teleport to the only teleportation point in the area and dive into the pool nearby.
Find a cave with a few xenochrome oscars swimming next to it, and swim through it to the very end until you reach a hall with a large shell. Talk to the melusins and listen to their plan, which they are going to implement thanks to the potion of truth. According to Tobia, there is a special score hidden somewhere under the village of Merusi that she would like to find and play for her friend Mamer. According to her, the object may be in a cave, the entrance to which is blocked by a barrier of unknown origin.
Head to the Sealed Cave
From the sink, turn right and enter the stream leading to the long cavern. Swim past the village of Merusi to the north and look for another tunnel. Continue along it to reach the barrier that Tobia was talking about.
Find a way to break the seal
To break the seal, use a normal attack on the crystals that appeared after taking the potion of truth. Two of them are located next to the melusines, and the third is hidden behind a rock to the right of the barrier. When all three switches turn orange, the barrier will collapse and the path to the cave will be open.
Find the lost score
Go to the opened cave to find the score. Turn left at the fork to the Melusina's hut. Attack xenochrome armored crabto pick up a shield ability that will come in handy later. There you can fight with a real armored crab and pick up a rich chest as a reward. However, it will not contain the desired object.
Return to the fork and swim south. Behind the stone you will find a bunch of boxes and pots, among which lies the score, marked with a bright spark. Swim closer to the containers and pick up the item.
Come back to the shore
Look for a large stone with blue veins next to the crates and activate the ability next to it that you received from the armored crab earlier. The barrier will collapse and open the way further, where it will be possible to go to land and meet Tobia. It turns out that the found plate is written in an unknown language, which the melusina is not able to decipher.
Talk to Katerina
To decipher the inscriptions on the score, go to Catherine in Cours-de-Fontaine to post an ad and find music experts. Go to her counter in the north of the capital and tell her about your request. Fortunately, at this moment, a girl named Tylefer, who is very well versed in this area, will be nearby. She will help with deciphering the inscriptions and tell you that these notes are intended for a certain type of musical instrument.
Talk to Tobia
With the finds, return to Tobia in Merusi Village. You can find it at the hut on the underwater level of the settlement. You can get there from a giant shell, ing through the current, as they did at the beginning of the task, or through a well in the ground part of the village. Tell the melusina about everything you heard from Tylefer.
Install "gift"
After automatically moving to the shell, which turned out to be a musical instrument tubinella, swim to its top and set the gift, leaving it in a small depression.
Use the Xenochrome Armorcrab's power to send shockwaves at the Tubinella
To set the "gift" in the right place, you will need to "hit" the shell itself. To do this, attack one of xenochrome armored crabsfloating in the hall and get his ability. Hit one of the shell sprouts with a targeted attack and tune the tool.
Cleanse the tubinella of the creatures that have settled in it
After the impact, several armored crabs that lived there will emerge from the shell. Deal with three waves of sea creatures with normal attacks or an acquired ability to completely clear the tubinella. To make the skill hit more powerfully, let the enemies hit the shield while aiming. Together with Tobia, listen to the resulting melody and receive gratitude from her for the work done.
How to get the Song of the Ancients achievement in Genshin Impact
Hear the melody of the past by running the tubinella with Tobia to get the hidden achievement Song of the Ancients from 5 source stones.
