Genshin Impact’s A Particularly Particular Author quest instructs players to make offerings at three perches, each of which is found at a different location. Of these three perches, it is the one situated at Shirikoro Peak that is likely to give fans the most trouble, as they will need to complete a number of puzzles before the offering can be made. For those Genshin Impact players that may be stuck on this part of the quest, a full walkthrough can be found in this guide.
Genshin Impact: Shirikoro Peak Mist Puzzle
Collect Three Seelies
After entering Shirikoro Peak and touching the perch inside, players will need to guide three Seelies to the small statues that are directly next to Ruu. This action will drain the water that is below the perch, and here are details on where to find each of these Seelies in Genshin Impact:
- Drop down into the water and swim to the west. The first Seelie is hovering around a torch that is near an Electrogranum plant.
- Climb the lage branches just northeast of the statues where the Seelies are to be deposited to find the second one.
- Go through the doorway that Ruu is facing to encounter the third Seelie.
Solve the First Relay Stone Puzzle
With the water drained, players should now drop down and work their way toward the three purple feathers. Upon collecting one of these feathers, the other two will fly away, and fans should follow them to a sealed door and a Relay Stone puzzle. Unsurprisingly, this puzzle must be solved in order to open the door, and doing so centers around positioning the moveable Relay Stones correctly.
More specifically, Genshin Impact players need to move the crystals so that the two nearby beams of electricity travel from their sources to the two small crystals that flank the closed door. Perhaps the easiest way to demonstrate this process is with a video, and fans can find the solution to this Relay Stone puzzle starting at timestamp 4:40 in the one that is below.
Collect Three Seelies
Once the first Relay Stone puzzle has been solved, players should enter the newly-opened room, defeat the Genshin Impact enemy that is inside, and collect the second feather. They should then follow the third feather to another closed door that they will also need to open, and that process begins by locating three more Seelies. Here is information on where those Seelies can be found, and they should be taken to the small statues by the cube that is southwest of the sealed door:
- Break the rock wall that is northwest of the closed door to reveal the first Seelie.
- Go west past the aforementioned cube with the statues. The second Seelie is on a toppled column.
- The final Seelie is the chamber directly to the south of that cube.
Solve the Second Relay Stone Puzzle
After the three Seelies are in position around the cube, players should interact with that object to drain even more water. This action will reveal yet another Relay Stone puzzle, which must be solved in order to open the door. Again, this is done by guiding the beams of electricity to the crystals at the door, and the solution can be seen starting at timestamp 10:20 in the video that is above.
Make An Offering to the Perch
Past the door, players will find the third and final feather, and they will be ready to return to the perch at Shirikoro Peak when it has been collected. They can then simply interact with the tree to make the offering and complete this step in the A Particularly Particular Author quest in Genshin Impact.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
