A Lamenter at Fate's End is the third part in the Teyvat storyline Archon Quest Chapter III: Act VI - Caribert.

Steps[]

  1. Follow the hilichurl
  2. Follow the hilichurl to the cavern
    • Enter the Quest Domain: Unknown Sanctuary
    • The player is not given the option to adjust their party upon entering from the special story mode but will be able to change it within the Domain via a Door of Resurrection, which can be used while not in combat.
    • If the player leaves the Domain, their quest progress will be lost and reset to this step, and they will be transported to the Domain's entrance in the normal Teyvat map. The Domain can be re-entered from both there, which allows the player to adjust their party as usual, and the special story mode.
  3. Continue exploring
  4. Defeat the Fortune Lector
  5. Talk to Eide
  6. Continue exploring

Gameplay Notes[]

  • Starting from the beginning of Fortune-Mocking Pedigree, the player will be in a Special Story Mode.
    • If the player leaves this mode, they will be teleported to the main overworld outside of the hut where Caribert stays, and the active quest step will change to "Go inside" with the quest marker at the entrance to the hut, unless otherwise noted in the quest steps. Entering the hut will return the player to the special story mode, even if the latest quest checkpoint appears to be different.
    • The Paimon Menu button is replaced with an exit button (as in Domains) which displays a notice when used:
      • Hint: You are currently in a special story mode. You will be able to continue it even if you leave. Do you wish to leave?
    • Most other menus are also not accessible through the UI, hotkeys, or Shortcut Wheel, including the Party Setup, Map, Time, and Settings menus.
    • The minimap:
      • Displays a temporary red world border.
        • When approaching the border, the player's character will stop by themselves and return on their own with a voiced line from the Traveler (as Paimon is not present during this quest sequence).
      • Will always be lit up, regardless of whether or not the player has unlocked the Statue of The Seven.
      • Does not show the map icons for Spire of Solitary Enlightenment or Teleport Waypoints, including the Teleport Waypoint located within the bounded area, even though they are present (but unusable) in the world.
      • Does not show the player's map pins, even if they have some set in the bounded area on the normal map.
      • Does not show the "Hidden Cavern: I" or "Hidden Cavern: II" map layers.
    • The tunnel coming from the Chasm is blocked off by a solid fog wall at the Sumeru-Liyue border within the tunnel.
    • The cavern below the Spire of Solitary Enlightenment (the "Hidden Cavern: I" map layer) is accessible from both entrances, regardless of whether or not the player has removed the vines. It is also flooded, regardless of whether or not the player has drained the water.
    • This mode has its own set of collectible items (Kalpalata Lotus, Harra Fruit, etc.), enemies, and wildlife, independent of those found in the main overworld. Some entities are only found in either the special story mode or the main overworld, while others are present in both.
      • Collecting items or killing enemies or wildlife in one will not affect the presence of any entities in the other.
      • Enemies and wildlife do not drop anything other than their normal amount of energy particles and orbs.
      • Enemies respawn when the special story mode is re-entered. No items respawn.
      • There are no ores.
    • Most NPCs and interactables (such as cooking pots, Investigation spots, Elemental Monuments, Bouncy Mushrooms, and Clusterleaves of Cultivation) are removed.
    • There is special dialogue in this mode.
    • The Statue of The Seven:
      • Only has the "Leave" dialogue option.
        • As there is no "Resonate with Dendro" dialogue option when non-Dendro Traveler is the active character, it is impossible to switch the Traveler's element while in the special story mode.
      • Displays in the dilapidated Level 1 style, regardless of how much it has been repaired by the player.
      • Has its own pool of Restorative Power, which appears to hold an infinite amount of HP.
      • Will auto-recover the player's characters to 100% HP, regardless of what auto-recover maximum the player has set and whether or not the player has auto-recover turned on.
        • Characters who are healed to 100% HP by the Statue of The Seven trigger overhealing effects such as Furina's 1st Ascension Passive, which does not happen with normal Statues of The Seven.
      • Does not continuously heal nearby characters who lose HP after the initial heal from the Statue.
      • Restores 10% of the Max HP of fallen characters when reviving them upon approaching the Statue of The Seven. (Characters are still healed by the usual 35% of their Max HP when revived after the whole party falls.)
      • Serves as the respawn location when the player's party falls.
    • Hitting trees will not yield wood.
    • Most gadgets cannot be used. Gadgets that can be used include: Wind Catcher, NRE (Menu 30), Memento Lens, Peculiar Pinion, Red Feather Fan, Windblume Festival Commemorative Balloon, Jumpy Dumpty Party Popper, Adepti Seeker's Stove, Warming Bottle, "Special Analysis Zoom Lens," most "equipment" gadgets, and gadgets that are not located in the "Gadgets" tab of the Inventory,‍[Scarlet Sand Slate?] such as the Aranyaka gadget.
      • Although the Seed Dispensary cannot be "used," its contents can still be viewed (which is what "using" the Seed Dispensary does) from the Inventory screen. Additionally, having the Seed Dispensary equipped will still allow the player to obtain seeds as usual.
      • Unlike other "equipment" gadgets, Liloupar[verification needed] and Sorush cannot be equipped.
    • No character can be targeted by Nahida's All Schemes to Know.
    • As the Time menu is inaccessible, the time of day during some parts of the quest cannot be changed until the story advances.
    • Other quests that take place in this area, such as the World Quest Starry Night Chapter in Series Agnihotra Sutra, cannot be started or progressed, although the "Trackable Quest(s) Nearby" notice will still appear.
  • Completing the quest grants the Wonders of the World achievement The Far Side of Fate.

Dialogue[]

UI Quest Quest Description

The medicine meant to restore Caribert didn't work quite as expected. During the process of remaking the medicine, you seem to find yourself beset upon by strange phenomena...
(Approach the marked area)
Media:vo szaq203 1 eide 01.ogg Eide: That's... that's not Caribert.
Icon Dialogue Talk No, it's not.
Icon Dialogue Talk There's no silk scarf around his arm.
Media:vo szaq203 1 eide 02.ogg Eide: Right. Caribert's scarf was a gift I once gave to his mother. I use it now as a marker of sorts.
Media:vo szaq203 1 eide 03.ogg Eide: M—My eyes must be going... how could I not recognize my own son? Ugh, this decrepit body of mine... *sigh*
Icon Dialogue Talk Still, this hilichurl...
Icon Dialogue Talk There's something strange about it.
Media:vo szaq203 1 eide 04.ogg Eide: Yes... It doesn't seem interested in us in the least. It seems intent on walking in that direction... Where could it be going?
Icon Dialogue Talk No idea.
Icon Dialogue Talk Let's go have a look.
Media:vo szaq203 1 eide 05.ogg Eide: Yes... The more we know about hilichurls, the better.
(Follow the hilichurl)
Media:vo szaq203 2 eide 01.ogg Eide: Did it go in here? Hmm... Well, let's head in.
(Enter the Unknown Sanctuary)
Media:vo szaq203 3 eide 01.ogg Eide: What a ghastly place... Has it always existed? I swear I've never noticed it before...
Icon Dialogue Talk Look...
Icon Dialogue Talk What are those hilichurls doing?
Media:vo szaq203 3 eide 02.ogg Eide: Huh. It looks like they're... worshiping. Sometimes walking, sometimes kneeling in worship... And it appears to be in earnest.
Media:vo szaq203 3 eide 03.ogg Eide: I've never seen anything like this in all my life. What in the world does this place conceal?
Media:vo szaq203 3 eide 04.ogg Eide: Oh, there's only one way to find out.
(TravelerTraveler): (The air here, and this creepy scene... it's eerily familiar...)
(Pass through the first portal)
Media:vo szaq203 6 hero 01.ogg Media:vo szaq203 6 heroine 01.ogg (TravelerTraveler): Is this a teleportation device? What energy is powering it...
(Pass through the portal at the end of the large room)
Media:vo szaq203 8 hero 01.ogg Media:vo szaq203 8 heroine 01.ogg (TravelerTraveler): How did I get on the ceiling? Did the room turn upside down, or gravity itself...?
(Approach the central platform)
Media:vo szaq203 7 hero 01.ogg Media:vo szaq203 7 heroine 01.ogg (TravelerTraveler): It seems like I need to find a place to insert the rune.
(Open the door and enter the room below)
(As Eide and the Traveler approach the opening door, an Abyss Herald comes out)
Media:vo szaq203 4 fortunelector 01.ogg ???: Halt, humans. Fate has not granted you the right to enter this place...
(TravelerTraveler): (An Abyss Herald? No, he doesn't look like someone from the Abyss Order...)
Media:vo szaq203 4 fortunelector 02.ogg ???: Hmm, do you insist on an audience?
Media:vo szaq203 4 fortunelector 03.ogg ???: ...Very well, then I grant you the trial of destiny.
(Defeat the Abyss Herald)
Media:vo szaq203 5 eide 01.ogg Eide: Who was that? He was... he was...
Icon Dialogue Talk Terrifying?
Icon Dialogue Talk I've seen similar characters before.
Media:vo szaq203 5 eide 02.ogg Eide: ...He was a perfect being. I'm in awe.
Icon Dialogue Talk ...Huh?
Media:vo szaq203 5 eide 03.ogg Eide: He had the most wondrous aura, a perilous yet beautiful power... Truly mesmerizing.
Media:vo szaq203 5 eide 04.ogg Eide: And yet you were able to defeat him. Your strength is greater than I had imagined. Hehe...
Icon Dialogue Talk You have unconventional tastes.
Icon Dialogue Talk I just have lots of combat experience.
Media:vo szaq203 5 eide 05.ogg Eide: Let's continue on. I find myself growing more curious by the second... and more excited.
(Approach the large chained crystal)
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 01.ogg Eide: I think... we've made it to the end...
Icon Dialogue Talk What is that thing!?
(TravelerTraveler): (Wrapped in chains, hanging in midair, emanating a sinister aura... There's no mistaking it. It's just like the Defiled Statue!)
(TravelerTraveler): (So it does have something to do with the Abyss Order. And these worshiping hilichurls remind me a little too much of the Grand Thief...)
Icon Dialogue Talk Eide, this place is bad news. We've got to go!
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 02.ogg Eide: ...
Icon Dialogue Talk Eide?
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 01.ogg Voice Inside the Head: ...O dear creature, why do you bow down? For fear of the unknown? Or for a power that you covet?
(TravelerTraveler): (Whose voice is that? It must be coming from right inside my head... Can't Eide hear it?)
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 02.ogg Voice Inside the Head: ...O dear creature, why do you bow down? For I am no god... I am but a "Sinner."
(TravelerTraveler): (A "Sinner"...?)
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 03.ogg Voice Inside the Head: You are like a flower born in sin yet pure, spotless... I know your fate well.
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 04.ogg Voice Inside the Head: You need no longer hold back your resentment, nor accept the countless lies.
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 05.ogg Voice Inside the Head: Go forth, become a transcendent one, rise beyond the fate bestowed upon you...
Media:vo szaq203 9 schickzal 06.ogg Voice Inside the Head: And I shall shed a tear at the end of time... as I gaze back upon your life.
(TravelerTraveler): (...Who in the world are you? What do these words mean?)
Voice Inside the Head: ...
(TravelerTraveler): (The voice... it's gone...)
(The crystal glows and wisps of purple energy fly into Eide's body)
Media:vo szaq203 9 hero 01.ogg Media:vo szaq203 9 heroine 01.ogg (TravelerTraveler): !!!
Icon Dialogue Talk ...Eide?
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 03.ogg Eide: *pant* *pant* ...What just happened?
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 04.ogg Eide: When I saw that thing, my heart was instantly at peace... I—I was overcome by a sense of awe... or joy, perhaps.
Icon Dialogue Talk Are you alright now?
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 05.ogg Eide: I am... I feel good, in fact... I—I feel better than I did before I came in here. How peculiar...
Icon Dialogue Talk Something's not right about this place. We need to get out of here.
Media:vo szaq203 9 eide 06.ogg Eide: Oh, i—is that so? Alright, as you wish.
You leave the ominous cave and return to Eide's house.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 01.ogg Eide: Caribert! Oh, thank goodness. He's still okay.
Icon Dialogue Talk Don't we still need to go to the Statue of the Seven [sic]?
Icon Dialogue Talk Why are we back here?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 02.ogg Eide: I... I have a strange feeling that what just happened was meant to be.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 03.ogg Eide: For this to happen right at the moment when I was dreading worshiping at a Statue of the Seven [sic]... it's as if fate was calling to me.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 04.ogg Eide: You say that I bowed before that thing, so perhaps... it might be just as effective?
Icon Dialogue Talk That sounds like a ridiculous idea...
Icon Dialogue Talk But if you insist...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 05.ogg Eide: I have to try. No matter what. ...You said it yourself: I have to exhaust all options.
Another dose of medicine is administered to the hilichurl...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 06.ogg Eide: Caribert...?
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 01.ogg Caribert: ...
(Caribert opens his eyes to see Eide)
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 02.ogg Caribert: ...P—Papa...?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 07.ogg Eide: *gasp* ...Caribert! Oh, my goodness, it worked! It's a miracle!!! Oh, Caribert, my dear son...
Icon Dialogue Talk I can't believe it...
Icon Dialogue Talk I'm stunned.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 08.ogg Eide: You see!? It worked! Caribert can speak again!
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 03.ogg Caribert: Where's... Mama?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 09.ogg Eide: Mama is... Caribert, look at me. Do you know who I am?
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 04.ogg Caribert: Of course... You're Papa.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 10.ogg Eide: Hahahaha... Yes! Haha... Salvation, sweet salvation... Yes, this is what this feeling is...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 11.ogg Eide: How do you feel, Caribert? Are you fully awake now?
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 05.ogg Caribert: Yes... it feels like I just woke up from a long, long sleep. I dreamed that I was hiding in a little room. I didn't dare go out the whole time, and I didn't want to either...
(Caribert looks down and sees his hands and feet)
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 06.ogg Caribert: Wait...
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 07.ogg Caribert: My body! What happened to me? Is this... is this me?
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 08.ogg Caribert: Papa... What's happened to me!?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 12.ogg Eide: ...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 13.ogg Eide: ...Don't panic, son. It's just... while you were sleeping, we went into a fairytale world.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 14.ogg Eide: There's no more Khaenri'ah here, no more home — but do you know what that means? No more red sky... no more end of the world.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 15.ogg Eide: In this world, you have to be a little monster... but you get to stay with Papa forever.
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 09.ogg Caribert: Am I... dead?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 16.ogg Eide: No, no, of course not! Look, Caribert... you still have Mama's scarf on your arm. That means she's watching over you, protecting you. So how could you be dead?
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 10.ogg Caribert: Really...?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 17.ogg Eide: Yes, really! You've only just woken up, and this must all be very confusing for you. Just rest here for now... Things will get better.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 18.ogg Eide: Oh, and um... you have to promise me something...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 19.ogg Eide: Never take off your mask.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 20.ogg Eide: Understand? Whatever happens, you mustn't take it off...
Media:vo szaq203 10 caribert 11.ogg Caribert: Okay, Papa... I won't, I promise...
Father and son talk for a long while. Eide seems like a changed man after his religious experience...
(Eide and the Traveler talk outside the house)
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 21.ogg Eide: Not since that day have I been so glad as I am now... I can't believe this is really happening...
Icon Dialogue Talk Yeah...
Icon Dialogue Talk It's unbelievable.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 22.ogg Eide: Hmph, I knew that placing my hope in The Seven was a waste of time... I even worshiped at one of their statues like a common fool. Never before have I humiliated myself like that...
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 23.ogg Eide: Once a murderer, always a murderer... I was naive to think that the gods who conspired against us would ever offer redemption.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 24.ogg Eide: But the god we saw in that cave... Now that was a truly mighty god! Nothing like one of The Seven!
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 25.ogg Eide: That wondrous power... It was truly enchanting... Surely, that must have been the reason I bowed down?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 26.ogg Eide: Hmm, now then... after one beseeches a god, and the god responds by answering their prayers, should they, um... do something to show their devotion?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 27.ogg Eide: Piety is hardly my area of expertise... but surely I should honor the god that has honored my wishes.
Icon Dialogue Talk But Eide... that was not a god.
Icon Dialogue Talk That was... a "Sinner."
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 28.ogg Eide: A "Sinner"? Don't be absurd. You don't know a single thing about him... how dare you utter such blasphemy?
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 29.ogg Eide: You and I have both witnessed his divine power. When have The Seven worked a miracle like this before? Never... He is a god mightier than they! And yet you would call him a "Sinner"? Preposterous!
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 30.ogg Eide: No matter... Believe what you will. You cannot shake my faith.
Media:vo szaq203 10 eide 31.ogg Eide: I am going to pay my respects — with or without you.
Icon Dialogue Talk You...
Icon Dialogue Talk Fine, go ahead.
(TravelerTraveler): (Eide's experience has deeply affected him... Not that he was particularly stable to begin with, but this... religious fervor is something else...)
(TravelerTraveler): (I guess I'd better catch up with him anyway. There are monsters everywhere... I can't stand by and let him fall into their hands.)
(Eide begins to leave and the Traveler runs behind him to catch up)
(Talk to Caribert, optional)
Media:vo dialog szaq203 caribert 01.ogg Caribert: Do you live in the fairytale world as well? My name's Caribert, nice to meet you...
