Nahuatzin's Leap is the first part of World Quest Series Path to the Flaming Peaks.
Steps[]
- Go to the Skyfire Circlet
- Go to the top of the Skyfire Circlet
- Leap into the crater
Gameplay Notes[]
- The previous quest, The Way Into the Mountain, can be done without starting Nahuatzin's Leap. Upon completion of Nahuatzin's Leap, The Way Into the Mountain can no longer be started.[What if The Way Into the Mountain was already started?]
- Using the provided Spiritway to reach the Skyfire Circlet is optional.
- This quest can automatically start if the player reaches a certain height while ascending the volcano.
- Despite what the dialogue suggests, any character can complete step 3; negating Gaseous Phlogiston's HP loss is not necessary. The ability to enter the Ancient Sacred Mountain map depends solely on the player's progression of this quest.
- The Iridescent Inscriptions along the way are not related to this quest — touching them is not required to complete it.
- It is possible to accept the previous quest, The Way Into the Mountain, while this quest is still active.
Dialogue[]

Find a way to enter the volcano....
- (While riding the Spiritway)
- Paimon: The volcano's huge... Paimon wonders what it's like inside?
- Paimon: Wait. Won't it be full of liquid Phlogiston?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawrgh...
- Paimon: Don't worry about it! When we get there, Paimon can carry you...
- Paimon: But... you've been eating a lot lately, so you might've put on weight...
- ("Little One""Little One"): Arawr! Aroawr!
- Paimon: Hey! Paimon didn't mean it in a bad way!
- (Land on the Skyfire Circlet)
- O Chosen of Dragons...
- Ascend to the circlet's highest pinnacle — then hurl yourself into the Sacred Mountain's flames!
- Go forth and reveal it — break the golden seal, unveil the radiance of remnant flames unnumbered!
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rrroar...
- Paimon: What's wrong? Did you see a bunch of strange words again?
The words feel... clearer now...
It feels like... we're getting closer...
- Paimon: Oh, you mean it's because we're getting closer to the volcano?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: ...It's almost as if the person who's been talking to you all this time is in that mountain.
- Paimon: Anyway, since those things are showing up as we're getting closer to the volcano, that's gotta mean we're on the right track.
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- (Attempt to leap into the crater before progressing)
-
- (The player is teleported back to the southeast Teleport Waypoint)
- Paimon: Ugh... There's no way we can get through the volcano's crater like this!
- Paimon: We need to think of a way to pass through the gaseous Phlogiston...
- (Approach the top of the Skyfire Circlet)
- Paimon: Phew. We finally made it. Paimon didn't think it'd be so high up... but at least it's not as cold as Paimon thought it would be.
- ("Little One""Little One"): Grroah, rrohh, rowrr!
- Paimon: Uh-huh, says the meaty guy with the thick skin!
- Paimon: That's gotta be the volcano's mouth, right? What a view...
- Paimon: Hmm... When we asked for directions earlier, weren't we told that there's a ton of gaseous phlogiston in the volcano's mouth?
- Paimon: Looks like we need to find a way down.
- Paimon: Hmm, speaking of which, what's that? It looks like... some strange statue.
- (If Investigator of Ancient Ruins has been completed)[verification needed]
-
- Paimon: Oh! Could this statue be the one that Kimosi said a Qucusaurus stole?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- (As they approach, a Qucusaur flies in, grabs the statue, and dives into the crater)
- (If Investigator of Ancient Ruins has been completed)[verification needed]
-
- Paimon: Huh? Was that... a Qucusaur? So, Qucusaurs really do bring the stolen statues here...
- Paimon: Wait. Did it just grab that statue and jump... straight into the crater!?
- (If Investigator of Ancient Ruins has not been completed)[verification needed]
-
- Paimon: Huh? Was that a Q—Qucusaur?
- Paimon: Did it just grab that statue and jump... straight into the crater!?
- Paimon: Oh wait, that's right! We can find a way to pass through gaseous phlogiston, just like that Qucusaur did!
- Paimon: But, uh... *gulp* Kinda high up, aren't we?
Don't worry, Paimon, I'll carry you.
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: Err, you wanna go in too? Well... Ugh, alright. I—If that's the case, Paimon's not that scared anymore.
As long as you grab me just as we land...
- Paimon: Not gonna happen! Never mind the strength problem — think about how hard the timing would be!
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: And you too! Stop "rawring" along with this craziness! *sigh* ...Y'know what, now you two've gone and killed all the tension!
- Paimon: And it's not just that we're high up — don't forget about the gaseous phlogiston!
- Paimon: A—Anyway, let's make sure we're all set before we go!
- (While leaping into the crater)
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr! Aroawr!
- Paimon: Oh, so now you're scared? Okay, okay, just make sure not to let go!
- (Quest completes)
