The Herald’s Illusion is a 3-part purple quest: open the portals of the Three-Eyed Puppet in the Village of Lu, the Mandate Encampment and the Mountain of Imprisonment. The third one gives you the Puppet’s Tongue, which opens the Crimson Manor, and the Crystal Puppet Eye [Yin].
The 3 portals
| Part | Where | Bell |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Village of Lu, during Heartless Remnants | Puppet Testing Grounds |
| 2 | Mandate Encampment | Training Grounds Depths |
| 3 | Mountain of Imprisonment, past Huangxing: Tongue and [Yin] Eye | Puppet Cell |
The puppet doesn’t show the interact button from every angle. Walk around it until you’re in front of the blue-eyed face.
With the tongue, continue with how to enter the Crimson Manor. The two crystal eyes (Yin and Yang) are used later in the Phantom Illusionist Ruins to get the Violet Blossom.
The three portals are marked in their regions. Open in the interactive map →
