Let's start the task. 

Head to the Gates of Sumeru City

The first quest marker leads to the Sumeru Gate, where we should meet Nahida. We teleport to the nearest point and get to the right place on foot. The easiest way is to use the Chinvat Gorge teleporter.

During the dialogue, Nahida shows us a strange object that she found in the temple. She does not remember what this artifact is intended for, but power emanates from it.

Follow the strange mold

Suddenly, the dialogue is interrupted by a mold that appears, who behaves very strangely and wants to convey something to us.

Nahida says that the molder wants to follow him because he needs help. We agree and move on.

We just follow the mold, follow him until we get to other representatives of this genus.

Talk to Strange Mold

Nahida checks on one of the molders who has become ill and immediately notices that it is a highly unusual elemental life form creature.

Mold begins to speak in human language.

Mold asks to speak elsewhere.

Continue the conversation with the molder

During the cutscene, we find ourselves in a different place and continue the conversation with strange talking molds. The creature answers our questions.

We are waiting for the completion of the dialogue and the cutscene in order to continue the passage of the task.

Head to where the "end" awaits

After completing the dialogue with the molder, we move towards the quest marker, which is located nearby. We use four-leaf symbols to make it easier to get to the right place.

The dialogue begins. Nahida connects everything that happens with the crystal that she showed at the beginning of the quest. 

We are waiting for the completion of the dialogue and continue the passage.

Follow the elemental being

We continue to follow the mysterious elemental moulder.

Defeat the enemies that stand in your way

We stumble upon the camp of enemies. These are common bandits. We destroy their squad. An ordinary fight without complications.

Speak to the elemental creature

After defeating the enemies, another dialogue begins. We are waiting for completion.

Keep following the elemental being

We follow the quest marker, right behind the elemental mold, until we stumble upon another camp of enemies.

Defeat the enemies that stand in your way

Now the path is blocked by hilichurls. We destroy opponents and protect the mold.

Ordinary fight with ordinary opponents.

After defeating the enemies, we participate in the next dialogue. The elemental being once again shows its incredible mind.

Follow the elemental being again

And again, after the dialogue, we continue to follow the floating hydro mold until we reach our destination.

Upon reaching the destination, an automatic dialogue with the soaring moulder begins. The creature reveals a terrible truth - after death, his relatives become peddlers of withering, turn into tumors. 

Eliminate the Wither Zone

The molder explains the situation and asks for help. It is necessary to clean the wilting zones in the usual way. Dendrogranums will help us with this. Summon Dendrognaum and attack wither flowers.

Along the way, there are mobs, we destroy them, activate the candles of life and continue to destroy tumors / wilting flowers with the help of the summoned dendrogranum.

We reach the withering tumor and interact to clear the territory.

Again we talk with the mold to discuss a further plan of action. 

Go in search of another elemental being

Nahida senses that there is a relative of the elemental being nearby. We set off in search of him, but the path is blocked by other moulders that cannot be fought. Nahida comes up with the perfect plan to turn into a molder and sneak in unnoticed.

Try to get into the habitat of molds

Paimon and the Traveler should go around on the other side. At the same time, Nahida must sneak into the camp and pretend to be moldy without attracting too much attention.

Playing as a molder, we move forward until we stumble upon a patrolman.

At this time, you can choose an action: turn left or right. You can choose any option, although the game limits us in time. We choose any option.

The patrolman leaves, we continue to follow forward until the control switches to the GG.

Go from the other side and use the sense of the elements

Again we take control of the GG and Paimon, we move towards the first quest marker.

We use the sense of the elements and see the moldy man who has lost consciousness. This is our goal.

Heal an elemental creature and talk to it

Nahida turns back. The transformation took too much of her strength. We are waiting for the mold to wake up.

The second mold also speaks, although he knows the language much worse than the first.

There is a very long dialogue where the molder talks about the dragon's dendro. We are waiting for the end of the conversation. 

Help cultivate the land

After the conversation, we head to the quest marker and get to the land that needs to be processed. We approach and interact to plant a seed.

When interacting, a menu opens. We select a bag with a seed and confirm.

water the ground

To water the ground, we stand next to the planted seed and use the ability of the hydro character.

Find and destroy the plants that are trying to occupy this land

It's time to get rid of the weeds. They are fairly easy to spot, with a triangular marker hanging above them.

We collect sugar flowers, but mobs immediately appear. We overcome them.

Talk to Nahida

After defeating the mobs, a dialogue with Nahida begins. We are waiting for completion.

Return to the molder habitat and speak with the elemental creature

We follow in the direction of the quest marker, directly to the elemental molders.

We talk with them, wait for the end of the dialogue, along with the dialogue, the task ends. It remains to collect the reward and proceed to the next task.
