All three petals of Patron Gao’s Memory Flower are in the Mirage Estate. Collecting the full set raises your maximum HP by 7%.
Quick answer: All three petals of Patron Gao’s Memory Flower are in the Mirage Estate: on the bottom floor past the pond court, in the upper-gallery study above the opera courtyard, and behind the Leng Tu’s Study bell courtyard.
Patron Gao’s Memory Flower at a glance
Inside the Mirage Estate, you can find all three petals of Patron Gao’s Memory Flower: “I. THREAD-BINDING SECT”, “II. CRITICISM” and “III. POSSESSION”.
Collect the glowing blue-flower patch for each petal by pressing E. A brief memory plays before its petal card appears.
Once you hold all three petals, the set is complete and your maximum HP goes up by 7%.
Petal I: Thread-Binding Sect
In the Mirage Estate, pass the pond court and descend to the bottom floor. Locate the red lattice wall, then press E at its prompt panel to slide it aside and expose a lit hall.
Expect combat as you enter: two Yin Puppets and one Yang Puppet are in the hall, and approaching them wakes them.
Against the hall’s patterned wall, a cabinet shelf holds the glowing petal. Press E to pick it up.
The card confirms the pickup. It reads “PATRON GAO’S MEMORY FLOWER” and “I. THREAD-BINDING SECT”, along with “(1/3) Collect all Memory Remnants to increase HP +7%”.
The memory shows Patron Gao meeting the Thread-Binding Master. Gao is amazed: “Sir! Please, a moment! Had I not seen it myself, I’d never believe such an esoteric art exists!” He goes on, “With threads as fine as silk, you control the puppet at will. It can even take up a sword and match a fighter blow for blow…” The Master replies, “But you may not know this… the Wulin sees our Esoteric Arts as nothing but cheap tricks. They seek to wipe us out entirely…” Gao then makes a promise: “Should anyone from your sect come, I will welcome them as honored guests!”
Petal II: Criticism
At the Mirage Estate, rest at the Training Grounds bell; the petal lies roughly 280 m away on foot.
Follow the same route you take for petal II of Yu’er’s Memory Flower, down to the lower floor of the opera courtyard. Then climb the switchback stair up to the upper gallery. Yang Puppet halves guard the courtyard floor near the stair.
Stay on the gallery rather than turning toward Yu’er’s balcony. Walk roughly 40 m to the study at the far end.
Behind the large desk, with scrolls and paper stacks piled on it, the petal glows. Press E to collect it.
The card reads “PATRON GAO’S MEMORY FLOWER” and “II. CRITICISM”, with “(2/3) Collect all Memory Remnants to increase HP +7%”.
In this memory, Gao’s associates talk about him behind his back. Shopkeeper Fan grumbles, “Hmph! Just look at these endless expenses! How much has Gao poured into that strange sect?” Boss Yu adds, “Well I hear they use secret remedies and Esoteric Arts… yet no illness is cured. Only more lives lost…” Patron Yao finishes with, “Those shady masters of his… always roaming around, muttering to themselves… truly unsettling.”
Petal III: Possession
Go to the Leng Tu’s Study bell in the Mirage Estate. Petal III sits right behind its bell courtyard, a few metres past the big incense cauldron.
Beside an incense pot and offering table, the petal glows in a small, dark room lined with carved lattice panels. Press E to collect it.
The card reads “PATRON GAO’S MEMORY FLOWER” and “III. POSSESSION”, and all three dots are lit. The text “(3/3) All Memory Remnants collected. HP increased” sits beside a struck-through +7%. That confirms the set is done and the HP increase has been applied.
In the last memory, Gao turns on the people from the earlier petal. “Shopkeeper Fan… you skimmed off thirty percent of the funds, and framed it on the Thread-Binding sect…” he says, then “Ah… and you, Boss Yu… you bribed my steward to poison me. Now, I’ll have you taste them all, one by one!” He closes with “Do as you wish—seal this place, open the caverns, train here in seclusion. Whatever you seek, you have my full support!”
More Memory Flowers
The route to petal II overlaps with Yu’er’s Memory Flower, so you can collect both on the same trip through the opera courtyard.
