Embark on an exciting journey with this walkthrough of the quest “A Belated Return” in Genshin Impact. Experience adventure, challenges, and decision-making in this captivating quest.
Who hasn’t dreamed of a long-awaited return home? In Petrikor, a touching story about separated brothers, secrets of the past and unexpected meetings unfolds. Let’s figure out how to complete this atmospheric quest and get a reward of 20 Source Stones.
Preparing for the quest
Before you can start this adventure, you need to complete the large-scale storyline of “Ode to Harmony”. After completing it, do not rush to immediately look for a new quest – the system requires a change of real day. This means that you need to wait until the next day in the real world, not in-game time.
Make sure you have fast travel enabled to the Hydro Archon Statue on Petrichor Island – this is where the quest “A Belated Return” begins.
The Beginning of the Adventure: Meeting Juliet
At the Archon statue you will meet a girl named Juliette, she will offer a generous reward of 20,000 mora for a simple delivery to Beyda Harbor. It would seem like a simple order, but this is only the beginning of an intriguing story.
Unexpected Passenger: The Search for Giustino
Upon arrival at Beyda Harbor, an unexpected plot twist will occur. Here you will meet the mysterious Justino, who, having heard about your route, will ask you to take him to Petrichor.
However, upon arrival, your passenger disappears without a trace, citing seasickness. In search of the missing traveler, you go to the center of the village, where a fateful meeting with his brother Giovanni will take place.
It is from him that you will learn the shocking truth – Giustino was considered missing for many years, and his brother even erected a memorial tombstone for him outside the village.
Junction on the southern islands
The culmination will happen on a small island south of Petrikor. Here you will have to:
- fight against agent Pyro Fatui;
- find out the truth about the debt and the misunderstanding with Juliet;
- help the brothers reunite.
Tactical tip: Use your surroundings to your advantage in battle – Steam or Charged reactions will make the fight much easier.
Awards and Secret Achievement
For successful completion of the quest you will receive:
- 20 Source Stones;
- 150 adventure points;
- 25,000 moras;
- Achievement “Slow Way Home” (+ 5 Primogems).
A nice bonus: after completing the quest, you can talk to the brothers’ family at the spring near the bell tower and learn the details of their story. What emotions did the reunion of the brothers evoke in you? Share in the comments.
