How to complete the Rhyme and Melody of a Summer Dream task
Begin by traveling to the island shown on the in game map. The path unfolds through a blend of exploration and puzzle solving that tests a traveler’s perception and timing.
Players must gain access to Fatui’s device. After watching the related video, locate Persikov’s notes. They sit on a stone near a tent in the search area.
Next, find three missing crystal nuclei. The markers appear on the map, starting from the central island labeled with the number “1.”
A small riddle awaits with three devices: central, left, and right. Turn the devices in the correct sequence to unlock progress.
- Rotate the central device to the right, then to the left, and back to the right once more.
- Rotate the left mechanism: first to the right, then to the left.
- Turn the correct device twice to the left, then once to the right.
If everything is aligned, the mechanisms descend, revealing the core. Take it.
Proceed to the eastern island, marked as number “2” on the map. Climb onto the rock to find a similar device.
- Turn the first gear twice to the left, then once to the right to confirm alignment.
- Rotate the second mechanism: first to the right, then to the left, confirming the pattern.
Lift the core and sail toward the northern island. Interact with the following mechanisms:
- Rotate the leftmost gear once to the left, then twice to the left again for stability.
- Turn the second device twice to the right and once to the left for balance.
Take the core back to the Fatui camp. Watch the cinematic, then proceed to the marked island. Speak with allies to complete the quest.
Rewards include: Mora, 20,000; Source stones, 30; and Hero experience, 2.
