The game’s clues

Thirty years ago, she once stayed at the Gleaming Abyss near the Wraith Village for a long time, with a dream to make a kingdom last and a love that she never spoke of.
The tomb keeper is no longer there, and the Inner Way that she sealed away at the bottom of the abyss was opened by those who came after.

Step by step

Open the tome chest in the hut at Gleaming Abyss.
