Route: Dilmagia → Mt. Thunderclap → Dwarven Forge → Mobliz Shipyard → cargo train → Wind Shrine

Rescue Borin before completing the shrine route. The timed shipyard escape uses lever 16. Repair Mechabo, defeat Aether with Ice and speak to Lid at the shipyard to depart.

Route: Cave of Waters → rescue Luka → waterways → Lake Dorr → Warden’s Cape → Water Shrine

Adjust the water level to navigate the cave. Water Shrine uses lowered water, aligned crates and raised water. Its Leviathan story encounter is separate from later summon recruitment.

Activate three bridge controls at the factory. The early Ignis meetings are scripted. Obtain the Dungeon Key and then the Royal Chambers Key; follow the escape to unlock the Enterprise.

Route: Sunioo medicine → Nameless Ruins → Arcane Library → first Psyche visit → Tower of Mysidia → second visit

Defeat the five haunted books to restore the library teleporter, then take the required tome. A sealed memory gate on the first visit requires later story progress. Bring a replacement healer for Dark Fina.

Route: Elder → Research Center → White Jade Stone → Holy → bog → Sanctissimus Shrine

The laboratory clearance sequence is Level 1 → Level 2 → Level 3. Return the stone to the elder for Fina’s training. Read each shrine trial’s inscription and change damage type when its rules change.

Route: Sian → Mt. Reizan → Lake Ryusei → Forest Path → Alcare → Wandering Lands

Use the overland mountain route when the storm blocks airship access. Follow the missing-crystal objective and finish the Umbra confrontation. Review reserve equipment before the tower.

Route: Barrier event → lower ascent → Behemoth → final-entry preparation → finale

Let Sakura’s barrier event resolve. Prepare Wind and Light for Behemoth. Equip reserves before the final sequence; Last Resonance changes the active lineup. Preserve a save before committing to the final ascent.
