Table of Contents
1. Talk to Kumi
On Watatsumi Island’s West Coast, you will find an NPC named Kumi on the beach. She will need your assistance in preparing an offering to a gone childhood friend. After you have talked to her, Kumi will ask you to bring her three Sakura Blooms.
In case you do not have any Sakura Blooms in the inventory, visit Sakura Bloom locations and get some in the area of Grand Narukami Shrine. Having obtained the item, the player needs to come back to Kumi to get the quest continuing.
2. Defeat Hilichurl Camp in the West
After you have submitted the blooms, the NPC will ask you to check in on a researcher last seen close to a Hilichurl camp on the island’s west coast.
Head to that Hilichurl camp and beat all of them that surround the researcher.
3. Unlock the puzzle
Once players successfully rescue the researcher, she will inform the player of a possible treasure in the area. Players will notice three elemental totems (two electro, one hydro) in the area. Unfortunately, one of the Electro totems is blocked by an Electro barrier bubble.
The next step in solving The Puzzle of the Watatsumi Statue is to unlock the Puzzle itself.
In order to access the blocked totem, head behind the hut of the Hilichurl and activate the Electrogranum plant. After that, return to the Hilichurl to deactivate the barrier.
In case the player’s Electrogranum level is not enough to pass the barrier, they can still activate the totem by shooting it with Lisa’s charged attack or Fischl’s bow.
Once you have activated the totem, use a Hydro or Electro character to activate the two totems left. You will be able to complete the puzzle beside Anisa once having activated the three of the totems.
