В Honkai: StarRail The sixth chapter of the Exploration missions "While the heroes live" will unfold on the territory "Eternal Land", which existed several hundred cycles ago. Becoming the new Savior, the Pathfinder, together with his friend Cyrene, will travel back in time to the moment when the core of the titan Talent was returned.

How long does it take to complete?
It will take a while to complete the chain on its own. from 3 to 5 hours. Using the skip dialog function will allow you to keep within 1 hour.
How did the previous task end?
The paths of four key figures cross, contrary to the protocols of the artificial world: Zlatius Phaenon reveals the personality hidden behind the mask The Flame Thief and encounters himself in the form of Kaoslana, and Stranger Cyrene meets the Pathfinder in Elysia Eides. The youth accepts his destiny and embarks on the Path of Destruction to distract Nanook from the events unfolding on Amphoraeus and allow the Nameless One to assume the role of "Savior".
Oh time, carry me through thousands of years
Come back to Elisia Aides and talk to Kirena about the plans: the girl will tell you that the memories of her true self are intertwined in her "I"and memosprite Memo, who accompanies the Pathfinder from the beginning of the journey through the territories of Amphoreus. After the next era of resurrection of the earth, the planet will face a tragic end - Destruction. To stop Lycurgus, the remaining Flamestalkers must travel to the month of balance of the year 3960 according to the light calendar and, having enlisted the support of the current Titan of Justice Keridra, get a piece of her power.
Explore the mysterious space
Take the cognitive anchor provided the genius of Great Hertha и by scientist Skryullum, then wait for your Zlatius companion in the attic to enjoy the views of Elysia Aides before starting your new journey.
Soon Lycurgus will appear, who will decide to take the Pioneer to "his" space. The mysterious place will turn out to be Zalegendye — the boundary between the "Eternal Land" and the real world, from where the robot can freely observe the experiment. Explore the space, interacting with TVs that store information about the "Golden Descendants" — some of the information will be hidden.
The final action twice examine the monitor at the very end and personally contact Lycurgus, who will offer to return all the Nameless and tell the Pathfinder about his true power, but only on the condition that he stops interfering. The new "Savior" of Amphoraeus will refuse such a deal.
O sun, drive away the stars and the waning moon
Immerse yourself in the rooms Sanctuaries of Propheciesto witness the tyrannical rule of Caesar. In the process, from a conversation with duxom Banner of Blades Gisilens and other associates of Keridra, it is learned that the Flame Pursuers of this era were awaiting the coming of the Savior from beyond the sky. This event was predicted priestess of Tribios.
Talk to Aglaya, Tribby and other Zlatius subjects
Accompanied by Caesar, return to holy city, to attend a meeting of the union, where representatives of various cities discuss the journey of the Zlatius.
While walking along dawn peak You will be able to get to know the current "Golden Descendants" better:
- Personal Chronicler Singing Wind Virginia and the army adviser Stonebearer Apollonius They will tell you how important it is to be loyal to Caesar and her ideas - betrayal is always followed by death.
- From a dialogue with the duxes of Broken Blade Labinus and Winter Shower Seneca It turns out that there are other people in the city who know about the world beyond the sky.
The main action is to have a conversation with Golden Weaver Aglaya и little Tribby, who will tell you that it was Oronis who told you about the visit of the Saviors, who are capable of leading the people of Amphoreus to the real stars. After the conversation, meet Gisilensa again: the girl will lead the guests to the assembly hall, where they will announce the imminent hunt for the titan Ocean.
Enjoy a feast with Gisilensa and other Zlatius
Having learned from scientist Hertha, that this era was also visited by Lycurgus, go to the place where the feast was held - to the throne area Groves of the Muses.
After handing over your personal belongings to the guards guarding the entrance, you will be able to go further and talk to the main people of the evening:
- Broken Blade Labinus and the approaching Winter Shower Seneca share their thoughts on local drinks.
- Singing Wind Virginia in the company of the Stone Bearer Apollonia admits that she dreams of writing poetry about herself - in this way, they will create "Tales of the Flame-Chasing Heroes".
- Aglaea и Tribbie will be worried about something - their thoughts are clearly far from the arranged feast.
Finally, find Gisilenza, who will offer to drink the dew of the heavenly blood of Fagusa. After accepting the girl's offer, you will learn that the drink is an "antidote" to the siren's song that has enveloped everyone present at the location. This is necessary to hide the presence of Keridra, who is conducting a dialogue with Lycurgus, from unwanted eyes. The Banner of Blades does not trust the theor and wants to expose his true intentions.
Convince Keridra or kill Caesar
Having realized that Lycurgus is lying, and having witnessed the scene in which Caesar accuses the duke close to him of treason, you will be faced with a choice:
- "We need to convince Keridra..."
- "We'll have to kill Caesar. There's no other way.".
Regardless of the line, Cyrene will suggest choosing a diplomatic approach to resolving the conflict and will ask you to convince Caesar with words.
It is necessary to prepare arguments well:
| Stages of negotiations with Keridra | The outcome of each choice |
| "Start with a resistance that lasted thirty million cycles" or "Start with the False Era of the Resurrection Earth". | The queen's response to both the first and second remarks will be silence. |
| "To tell of the atrocities of Lycurgus" or "Tell the truth about the Steelcrypt". | The girl will listen to any of the arguments with an impartial face. |
| "Tell about the Mission of Development" or "Tell about the determination of the Pioneers". | The speech of the Pathfinder will, under any circumstances, only cause a smirk from the current titan of Justice. |
Ultimately, it will turn out that the staged scene is a performance for the theor, after which the intelligent erudroid will once again imprison the Nameless One from the Star Express in Zalegendye.
O wanderer, study the prints on the wax tablet
Using one of the TVs located in the space of the theor, you will be able to contact Gerta, who will explain that she feels a strong influence of one of the Paths on the world. It is this that will help to escape from a kind of "prison".
Try to get help through the power of the Paths
Interact with the devices depicting the familiar Aeons one by one:
- At the space station "Gerta" once managed to attract the attention of Nanook (Path of Destruction), however, his madness is too strong and can lead to irreversible consequences.
- On Yarilo-VI, the spear of the Architects allowed them to reach the Qliphoth (Path of Preservation), but it is now impossible to resonate with Aeon, since he neglects his countless followers.
- Shipe (Path of Harmony), who became interested in the Pioneer on Penakonia, could come to the rescue, but the barrier of Zalegendya does not allow her music to be heard.
Finally, turning to force Paths of Memory, who is patronized by Fuli, manages to summon jellyfish with a familiar gentle whisper.
Its owner is Mysterious Darkness — the third month of the "Eternal Land" calendar. It is she who helps to leave the zone of memories with the core of the flame that supports the world and teleport to the year 4931 according to the light calendar.
O returning wind, lift up the Bygones Times Like Dust Passing
The Pathfinder interacts with the Cognitive Anchor and summons Cyrene. About 1000 years have passed since his imprisonment in the Erudroid's "prison" on Amphoraeus, and throughout this time the Zlatius have made great efforts to ensure that the core of the flame of the supporting world ends up in the hands of the Savior.

O prisoner, step over the shadow and see the sea
After awakening Gisilenza, you will once again encounter Lycurgus, who will finally reveal his true identity: he is the creator of Nus and member of the "Society of Geniuses" No. 1, Zandar Odin KuwabaraErudroid is ready to do anything for the sake of the stable course of the experiment on the "Eternal Land", and his last step is to personally fight the Pioneer, who is capable of destroying all his plans.
How to defeat boss Zandar, Entelechy, the first genius in history
Follow these guidelines to defeat the main plot enemy as quickly as possible:
- The enemy's vulnerabilities are physical, ice и wind elements, it also has a high health indicator (× 5), and often summons regular minions during combat. Form a squad by selecting a hyper-carry with good AoE potential or high damage to one target (direct all skills to the boss).
- Don't forget to place a representative of Preservation or Abundance in the fourth or any other position.
- When the first genius switches to "Evolution Mode", the appearance of new opponents on the battlefield or the summoning of memory spirits speeds up the transition to the "Discussion Mode", which increases the damage he takes — by this point it’s better to prepare your main DPS skills (including ults).
- After changing the status to "Discussion Mode", the recruitment scale under the boss's health bar changes: the effect is applied "Loading: Myth", which is filled by killing enemies, team members, or memory spirits. Once filled, Zandar performs an AoE strike, reducing the HP of the unit to almost a minimum. When you notice that the bar is approaching full (10 stacks), put shields on your team or make sure that you can heal the damage.
- During the battle, units will periodically be afflicted with status "Antinomy": it activates the characters' superpowers (fills the energy completely), but using the skill causes the hero to lose a huge amount of HP (damage consumes shields and is not fatal). After using the skill, it is advisable to immediately heal the target to avoid subsequent fatal blows.
Having defeated Zandar, the geniuses will imprison him in Zalegendye, where they will hold negotiations. Gerta will demand that the creator of Nus stop all calculations, including those concerning the Steelcrypt. Gisilensa, in turn, will go through the key memories of Keridra, who was not just a "queen" to the siren, but a loyal friend who wants to follow. The girl will be able to accept the death of the follower of Talent, even though she fell at her hands.
