Walkthrough of the quest Through the Morning Mist in Genshin Impact
Having met the mysterious adventurer Bona, and driven by an imminent battle with a dragon, the Traveler and Paimon set off in search of fragments of a mysterious source that protects an ancient city. With its help, they manage to charge the Super Powerful Super Laser, a skill of the spirit of Coco, capable of defeating a huge enemy that stands in the way. A positive outcome of the battle brings the team closer to obtaining one of the pieces of pyrophosphorite needed for the "road to the sky".
Go to Ochkanatlan
After the long cutscene of the tower's destruction, head to the islands opposite the destroyed bridge. Get to the destination yourself, or use the Soul Light Ictomysaurus.
After defeating or escaping from the enemies in the clearing, continue exploring Ochkatlan and find a way to get into the tower above the gate of the stone building ahead.
When approaching the desired location, enemies will spawn nearby, and the tower gate will open automatically after notification. "Come, Chosen of the Dragons. The black, impenetrable night is coming.". Go inside to see a cutscene of a miraculous escape from a crowd of monsters.
Explore the tower
Once inside the tower, assume Ictomysaurus form and use its active skill on the yellow symbol on the wall behind the blue cube.
Once the lever is unlocked, activate it to remove the barrier from the crack in the floor. Go down to the lower floor and go into the corridor to the left of the fresco.
Stand on the stone slab at the dead end and activate the lift to go down even further. Without going far from the platform, go through the gap under the door propped up by the cube.
In the small room, use the Ictomysaurus skill and point it at the symbol on the wall behind the table where the "Notes of a Nameless Priest". Leave the room and use the acquired skill on the place under the gate at the end of the corridor.
Place the cube as shown in the image, aiming for the space directly under the raised gate. This will allow you to widen the age a little and climb into the next room.
Be careful, the floor in the room will collapse immediately after entering the hall. Manage to move to the table to collect rewards from a regular chest and read the "Notes of a Wandering Explorer". If you still fall to the floor below, find a symbol on the wall nearby and read it to get the effect of a high jump and return to the treasury.
Go into the open room behind the lever and examine the yellow symbol on the wall between the two doors using the Saurian's active skill.
Place the cube as shown in the example, placing it under the gate through which you ed to the symbol. Then go to the lever and activate it by pressing "Actions" in the pop-up menu. This will open the second door in the corridor completely, and the first one will remain slightly open due to the obstacle. Go forward through the resulting openings.
Speak with the mysterious adventurer waiting on the other side of the door and listen to her story about her purpose in Ochkatlan. Agree to forces to find the Jade of Return.
Explore Ash Street and collect fragments of the mysterious source
Armed with Kokouik's special aura, approach the gate and leave the tower by activating the switch nearby. Next, at Bona's request, you will need to find three fragments needed to charge the little spirit's abilities.
In total, you need to find three fragments of the mysterious source in the designated area. All of them are located inside the towers and protected by clots of Abyssal energy.
First shard Located in a ruined tower directly across from the gate you came out of earlier. If necessary, defeat nearby monsters. Mimifloras protected by a void barrier will lose their shield faster due to Kokouik's aura. Stand as close to such enemies as possible to defeat them faster.
The same aura can be used to destroy the clots guarding the fragment. Stand between them so that both sources of the Abyss disappear at the same time, then pick up the fragment from the ground.
Second shard hidden inside a similar tower slightly east of the ruins where you met Bona. If necessary, you can first deal with the monsters nearby and only then approach the clots of the Abyss. After receiving the second fragment, the evil dragon will return and periodically drop fire bombs. Watch for areas appearing on the ground to dodge the flying creature's attacks in time.
Last Fragment can be found on the platform north of the first tower. Destroy the clots on the platform next to the stone gate and pick up the shard to fully charge Kokouik's ability and fight back the dragon.
Shoot down the evil dragon with the Super Powerful Super Laser
Once you have entered Kokouik control mode, aim at the dragon to have the spirit automatically fire small projectiles. As the battle progresses, the Dragon of the City of Flowing Ash will attack back, releasing fireballs. Hold "Space", to raise the shield and not lose HP, indicated at the bottom of the screen.
As smaller attacks land, Kokouik's special skill will charge. By pressing "Q" Activate the ability to release a powerful beam that quickly destroys the dragon's void barrier. Repeat the action several times until the enemy's shield is completely broken.
Defeat the evil dragon in his lair
Track down the evil dragon that fled to its lair after being defeated and fight it again. During the fight, the Corrupted Dragon of the City of Flowing Ash will have both an HP bar and a Void Barrier bar that will regenerate periodically. Reduce the enemy's HP to the minimum to win a second time.
During the battle, try to stay as close to the dragon as possible, so that Kokouik's aura helps to destroy the void barrier faster. After removing the enemy's shield, you will be able to deal increased damage to the enemy for some time, after which he will begin the process restore protection.
When will they appear on the battlefield? fragments of a mysterious source, collect them so that the dragon could get a smaller amount of shield.
By driving away the flying monster a second time, Bona will be able to return the stolen pyrophosphorite, and the spirit of Kokouik will point out the location of the new adventure goal.

Hello, I need help. Due to low ping, the door to the tower did not load two weeks ago, and we can consider the task stage missed. The lever is not activated, and now on "Explore the tower", I can not prop up the door. The elevator does not light up red. Maybe I should ? What should I do? I climbed the tower itself, tried to break through the floor. Did not work ...
Hello. Yes, it is better to technical with such bugs.
s**t task
Help please, what to do if in the task "Explore the tower", the door to the tower does not open? I have already run everywhere, there are no monsters, and the door is closed.
Have you tried to climb higher if you can't get into the tower itself? Maybe you're trying to go the wrong way? Inside, you need to solve puzzles.
What should I do if I point at this sign on the wall, shoot, and it doesn't work, and nothing happens?
I fell off the lift and now I can't get back up. The TPs don't work. At the "leave the tower" moment.
the same thing, what should I do?
FOUND A SOLUTION, you need to change the squad: take the weakest character on the and fall from a height, after resurrection you will be on the top floor
Thanks! Somehow it happened automatically for me after two days lol.
There you can become an ictomisaur and take a jump boost. I also had to suffer in this place.
I am one of those who can't collect feathers on a smartphone after re-installing the shield (for some reason you can't even just run through the feathers, you have to stop for a moment to collect them). After a few attempts, it turned out that the shield is easily knocked down at the very beginning, when the dragon is still tied up with the same feathers and is standing still, you just need to go down to it as quickly as possible and start dealing damage. Then there will be a couple of seconds without a shield, during which you need to manage to knock down as much HP as possible before the cutscene starts
Please help if anyone knows... What to do if there is no blue cube in the "explore the tower" task?
At what point in the stage? At the very beginning? If there is no cube, then perhaps there is already a lever? If so, then simply interact with the lever directly without the intermediary of the zavrian.
In all other moments, the cubes are placed by the player himself.
Please make a more detailed guide on how to defeat the dragon((
For this, a normal pumped squad and a moment to collect fragments around the dragon should be enough. How exactly are you trying to get through, do you not have enough damage to the enemy or does the shield regenerate quickly?
the shield is restored TOO fast (the same with fragments)
Yes, that doesn't work either, the shield is restored immediately after it disappears
what to do if i fell into the tower and can't get out and teleports can't be used
At what point exactly are you stuck?
What if these petals are physically impossible to collect? The dragon restores the shield faster than I can collect them. I can't do it anymore, I've worn out all my nerves
I have exactly the same problem, the squad is pumped up, but I don’t have time to collect the petals, I can’t knock down the shield at all
The dragon restores the shield even before it is broken, and even if all the petals are collected
What to do if the task does not work?
"Between Promise and Oblivion" completed? This is a mandatory requirement.
If so, can you tell us what other quests are not completed, maybe we can find the reason and update the conditions for opening the task.
This quest has been completed.
The quest "City Covered in Ash" is taken, but at the very beginning we caught some kind of bug and the door that opens with the cutscene does not open
the same nonsense (when trying to open it, it says that it can't be opened from this side, all the mobs are dead)
figured it out) you don't need to try to open the door below, but go up higher to the left and there will be another door)
