In the ever-expanding world of Teyvat, Fontaine's latest region introduced in Version 4.6 held secrets as deep as its underwater currents. Among the sunken towers and forgotten melodies of the Faded Castle, a particular item whispered of a lost legacy—the Restored Score. This wasn't just another collectible; it was a key to a poignant story, a bridge to an achievement called 'The Flying Outlander,' and a testament to the layered world-building that defines Genshin Impact. For the dedicated Traveler, the journey to obtain and use this item became a delicate puzzle, a symphony of exploration waiting to be conducted.

The process began not with a grand overture, but with quiet preparation. Before a single note of the lost score could be recovered, the stage had to be set by completing two foundational World Quests: 'Hey, This Isn't Pumpkin Soup...' and the more extensive 'Ancient Colors.' These narratives served as a prologue, tuning the player's understanding of Fontaine's new sub-area and its melancholic history. Only then could one descend into the Petrichor Underground, a place where silence hung in the air like a forgotten chord. Here, the first act of collection commenced.

The quest for the Restored Score was a hunt for scattered manuscripts. In the gloom of the underground, Lost Grimoires floated like spectral jellyfish, their pages aglow with residual energy. Using the unique SoundWave mechanic—a tool that felt like conducting an orchestra of time itself—Travelers could freeze these ethereal books mid-air and claim them. A minimum of two Grimoires were the essential tickets to progress, each one humming with latent power. This initial collection was crucial, acting as the skeleton key for the mysteries locked within the Faded Castle's heart.

With the Grimoires in hand, the real treasure hunt began within the crumbling towers of the Faded Castle. The objective was to find the two Pages From a Lost Score, fragments of a larger composition hidden behind Mysterious Grimoire Bookcases. These bookcases were not mere furniture; they were puzzles disguised as archives, their secrets sealed away until presented with the correct key.

The Locations of the Lost Pages:

Retrieving the second page was particularly cinematic. The blue crystal devices, when activated, didn't just create a path—they wove a staircase of light and solidified air, a bridge spun from pure, crystalline energy that felt like walking across a frozen harp string. Once both precious manuscript pages were secured, the journey looped back to its starting point. On the bottom floor of the tower, a scroll lay waiting on a dusty table—the Damaged Score. Here, the game offered a simple but satisfying 'Combine' option. The two pages merged with the damaged base, and just like that, the Restored Score materialized in the player's inventory, its notes now whole and humming with potential.

Possession of the score was only half the melody. To complete the symphony and hear its final note, one had to return to the surface world of Petrichor. There, amidst the quaint buildings and gentle ambiance, waited the NPC Tailleferre. Approaching her and presenting the Restored Score was the culmination of the effort. The interaction was brief but meaningful, a quiet moment of returning lost history. The game immediately acknowledged this act, flashing the notification for the 'The Flying Outlander' achievement. The rewards for this musical archaeology were tangible and sweet:

• Achievement Unlocked: 'The Flying Outlander'

• Primogems: 5

• Additional Rewards: Various other in-game materials and Mora.

While five Primogems might seem a modest treasure, the true value lay in the story concluded and the exploration rewarded. The entire quest chain, from prerequisite stories to spectral book hunting and architectural puzzle-solving, exemplified Genshin Impact's core appeal: environmental storytelling that turns every corner of Teyvat into a potential discovery. The Restored Score wasn't just an item; it was a completed thought, a repaired memory offered back to a world still healing from its past. For players in 2025, such quests remain the lifeblood of the adventure, proving that even the smallest, most lyrical secrets can lead to the grandest feelings of accomplishment.
