Genshin's Primal Flame Quest: Unlock Burning Firestones

Author:Kristen Update:Dec 25,2024

In Genshin Impact, after assisting Bona in purifying the Abyssal Corruption from the Chu'ulel Light Core, players must help her find the Primal of Flame. Once located, Travelers must offer two Pyrophosphorites (obtained during the Palace of the Vision Serpent Quest) to the Altar of Primal of Flame.

This offering opens a path to Tonatiuh, a floating island above Ochkanatlan’s Cradle of Fleeting Dreams. Reaching Tonatiuh completes the To the Sky-Road Quest and begins The Other Side of the Sky Quest, requiring Travelers to gather four Burning Firestones for the Jade of Return.
