Where Winds Meet: Stellabed Rocks Wandering Tales Walkthrough (All 4 Quests)

The Stellabed Rocks area of Where Winds Meet holds four Wandering Tales that hide their objectives behind unmarked NPCs, timed appearances, and three separate Divinecraft dungeons. Everstone Studio designed these quests without golden-path markers, so the fastest way through is to know precisely where each character stands and which item closes each step.

Quick answer: Complete What Your Eyes Hold by delivering a letter to He Wandao at night, The Elder’s Legacy II by clearing the Phasecycle, Zenithmaze, and Zenithstride dungeons for three letters, A Dream Aloft by healing Shen Mingxi and declining her offers twice, and Parallel Paths by using the Infinite Truths mask to steal Gu Qiu’s Notes for Gu Yun.

Quest	Starting area	Key item or condition
What Your Eyes Hold	Alkaid Pool, near Driftseed Moor	Zhang Wanshi’s Answer (night only)
The Elder’s Legacy II	Starseek Trail, Mirkvale, Goldflow Slope	Travels Beyond IV, V, and VI
A Dream Aloft	Near Driftseed Moor	Heal Bone Fracture, decline twice
Parallel Paths	Near Derndale	Infinite Truths mask, Gu Qiu’s Notes

What Your Eyes Hold: Deliver the letter to He Wandao at night

He Wandao only appears at Alkaid Pool during the Chou hour, so this quest fails to start until you adjust the in-game clock. Once he shows up, the task is a simple fetch loop between the pool and a cave in Old Mohist City.

Open the Wandering Tales menu, select What Your Eyes Hold, and track the Alkaid Pool location near Driftseed Moor.

Change the in-game time to the Chou hour, which sits between 20:00 and 6:00. He Wandao will not be present at Alkaid Pool during daytime.

Set the clock to the Chou hour (20:00–6:00) in the time menu so He Wandao spawns at Alkaid Pool. Image credit: Everstone Studio / via @ThanhPlays. Shown at 00:13 in ThànhPlays’s video.

Run to Alkaid Pool and speak with He Wandao to receive the request.

Teleport to Old Mohist City and head to the marked cave.

Enter the cave, climb the cliffs inside, and pick up the Zhang Wanshi’s Answer letter.

Return to Alkaid Pool and hand the letter to He Wandao. The quest marks as complete the moment he accepts it.

The Elder’s Legacy II: Clear three dungeons for Old Man Pi

This is the longest of the four tales. You need three letters from three Divinecraft dungeons, and each dungeon entrance is gated by a gear puzzle you solve after talking to one of the Pi family members. Deliver all three letters to Old Man Pi at Halfpeak Bluff to finish.

Phasecycle (Travels Beyond IV)

Track Starseek Trail, speak to Pi the Third, and solve the gear puzzle to open Divinecraft Dungeon: Phasecycle.

Inside, use telekinesis to throw stones at the mechanisms that block your path.

Loot all five chests, collect Travels Beyond IV, and leave the dungeon.

Zenithmaze (Travels Beyond V)

Track Zenithmaze near Mirkvale, talk to Pi the Fourth, and solve the gear puzzle at the entrance.

Work through the lantern-linking puzzles that connect the chambers inside.

Open all ten chests, grab Travels Beyond V, and exit.

Zenithstride (Travels Beyond VI)

Track Zenithstride near Goldflow Slope, speak to Pi the Fifth, and solve the gear puzzle to enter.

Navigate the lantern puzzles and open all ten chests as you move through.

Use the zipline sections on the wooden bridges to cross the dungeon quickly and reach Travels Beyond VI before exiting.

Teleport to Halfpeak Bluff and give all three letters to Old Man Pi. Handing over the final letter completes The Elder’s Legacy II.

A Dream Aloft: Heal Shen Mingxi and decline her offers twice

This tale hinges on making the right refusals. After you heal Shen Mingxi, she offers gifts on two separate in-game days, and you must turn both down before the quest lets you agree to help her.

Select A Dream Aloft and track the location near Driftseed Moor. Find Shen Mingxi and Tu Guanxian together.

Heal Shen Mingxi’s Bone Fracture to start her dialogue chain.

Wait one day, then decline her food. Wait another day, then decline her treasures.

Talk to Tu Guanxian, then head to Alkaid Pool to find Shen Mingxi and agree to help her. Accepting her request completes the quest.

Parallel Paths: Steal Gu Qiu’s Notes with the Infinite Truths mask

The shortest of the four, Parallel Paths is a disguise infiltration. You take a mask from a downed guard and use it to walk past the outpost’s defenders without triggering a fight.

Select Parallel Paths and track the location near Derndale, then speak with Gu Yun.

Take the Mysterious Qingqi Mask from the knocked-out Qiongqi Guard.

Equip the Infinite Truths mask to slip past the guards, then grab Gu Qiu’s Notes from a table inside the outpost.

Return the notes to Gu Yun. Handing them over completes Parallel Paths and, with it, all four Stellabed Rocks Wandering Tales.

Note: If an NPC is missing when you arrive, check the quest condition first. He Wandao and Shen Mingxi both depend on timing, and skipping a wait period or the Chou hour is the most common reason these tales stall.
