The achievement “Buzzing Secrets: Parable of the Cave” in Honkai: Star Rail(ХР) belongs to the series of the same name and is awarded for solving a prophecy from the Seamstress of the New Testament in the Ruins of Time of the Coast of Buried Memories on Amphoreus. We will tell you how to find and pass the test with amber feathers, find the “gap for light formed by three rays” and thereby unlock the achievement with a luxurious treasury.
How to get the “Buzzing Secrets: Parable of the Cave” achievement in HCP
To find out what is hidden in Zalegendye, you will first have to unlock the Ruins of Time, Shores of Buried Memories – access to them appears during the quest “O Hero, Greet the Dawn as a Mortal” from the storyline “Become Yesterday's Tomorrow.”
Receive the text of the prophecy from the Seamstress
Collecting nymphs in this location has a bonus advantage (more about it at the end of the paragraph), but the process itself is not necessary – you can immediately proceed to the search for amber feathers.
If you decide to adhere to all the formalities, first collect each nymph, and then go to The Seamstress of the New Testament (−2nd floor, northeast, anchor “Dungeon of Wishes”). In response, she will share a new prophecy:
“In legends composed by heroes, there are always paths leading to Beyond the Legend. When the three rays come together, a gap is created for the light…”
After saying the prediction, you will find on the map three question icons pointing to the Amber of Scattered Feathers – activating them will solve the puzzle.
If you have collected all the nymphs, an additional line will appear in the dialogue with the Seamstress: “Will you help me open these feather ambers?” – the choice will lead to the fact that one of the structures will be activated remotely, so you will not have to go to it.
How to find feather ambers
As we mentioned, there are only 3 such amber fragments(the location of each is shown in the general screenshot above):
- The first is in the northeast of the -1 tier of the map;
- The second is at the end of the hidden path along the eastern side of the -2 floor;
- And the third one can be found in the east -3 levels of the location.
The routes to the feathers, described below, can be completed in any order – this does not affect the achievement.
Yantar 1 (-1 floor)
Go to the room north of the Dungeon of Wishes anchor, where Tribby was met in the story. Go through the archway on the right and immediately turn left, following the crates until you hit a container with ichor. Click on the dialog “???” next to him to meet Bartholos and, after asking for help, gain access to the Lift Flower.
We rise on the flower and touch the feather at the edge of the destroyed platform – the first beam is launched.
Yantar 2 (-2nd floor)
From Fallen Edge Galleryon level −2, go down the stairs to the west, turn sharply right and go along the hidden narrow path (if you managed to remove the corrosion east of the anchor, go straight through the area with the throne).
Go around the throne and use the flower to continue down the path, and then run along the road to the north – it leads straight to the amber. By making the mechanism work, you will launch the second beam.
Yantar 3 (-3rd floor)
Now we move to the Cage of Despairin the east -3 levels of location, go into the room with a 3D map, and then go down the elevator in the center and leave the room through the passage in the north.
Going out into the street, turn right and run along the tree trunk to the pavement – on its northern edge there is the last feather, the activation of which will launch a cut-scene with the appearance of a chest.
Complete the journey in The Rift of Myths (−3rd floor, northern anchor) – there, in front of the shimmering amber passage, a luxurious casket will be waiting. Open it to immediately receive achievements and generous trophies: 30 jades, 300 credits, a relic (body) from the “Lost in Knowledge Scholar” set, 60 Random Ambrosia and a rare item “Fruit of Time.”
