The Three Realms Gateway Offering is a 40-day event that runs fromFeb. 17, 2022, to May 31, 2025. It’s set in Enkanomiya, the region hidden beneath Watatsumi Island.
A segment in the last part of the Aphotic Diffusal questline, theThree Realms Gateway Offering: Aftermath, involves using three mechanisms to guide the light while navigating through Illusory Stairways. Here’s how to solve the puzzles.
Evernight Temple (East)
Follow the quest marker to the east of the Three Realms Offering Gateway, where the Evernight Temple would normally be. Then,apply Anemoto the Anemo Monument in front of the statue to prompt a Wind Current to appear, and ride it to lift you to aplatformfloating in the sky.
Waitfor a moving platform to connect with the one you’re standing on, step on it, and wait for it to transport you upward. Jump up the makeshift stairs until you land on a platform that can summon an Illusory Stairway.
The glowing part of the platform indicates where the Illusory Stairway is. If you want to shift it to face a different direction, simplyactivate the Bokuso Box. Each platform can only shift between two directions. Keep in mind that you mustnotactivate the Bokuso Box in the middle of climbing the Stairway, as it will force the latter to disappear—causing you to lose your footing.
Once you step on the platform, climb up the Illusory Stairway to loot aCommon Chest. Then walk back to the platform anduse the Bokuso Boxto shift the Stairway’s direction. Climb it to reach another platform with anEnkanomiya Phase Gate. Let it transport you to another Illusory Stairway.
Climb up to loot anotherCommon Chest. Then, head back down anduse the Bokuso Boxto shift the Stairway, which will lead you toward the mechanism that guides the light.Use the Bokuso Boxbeside it to complete this part of the quest.
