This domain sounds grand, but unlocking it involves more steps.
than just finding a key. Enter theMemento Lens.

- To open these ruin gates, you usually need to turn gears or manipulate nearby mechanisms.
- The goal is to show all three types of runes on the gate at once. Think of it as a combination lock, but with runes instead of numbers.
“End of the Line” Domain Gate: Lever Logic
Domains can throw curveballs. Like the “End of the Line” domain gate, which needs a bit of lever-ology.

- The lever sits on the right side of the gate frame. Ensure you face away from the Fantastic Compass when you interact with it. Orientation matters!

- Moonstone Gates: These often involve Moonstones (duh!) and specific rituals or positions to activate. Look for environmental clues.

Quest Unlocks and Location Access: Keys to New Adventures

Want to finish the “Mondstadt and its Archon” quest? It’s less about keys and more about… dandelions and timing.
