In the “Wild Escape” quest, your mission is to flee from the Mondstadt Cathedral after being caught trying to steal the Holy Lyre.

With Venti at your side, you’ll use wind currents and clever hiding spots to make your escape, all while avoiding the Knights of Favonius.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how to complete the quest successfully:

1. Escape the Cathedral

After alerting the guards while attempting to steal the Holy Lyre, you’ll need to escape the Cathedral. Venti will be waiting just outside, ready to help you make your getaway.

Tip: Don’t rush. Focus on making your escape smoothly with Venti’s help, as there are no major combat encounters here.

2. Use the Wind Currents

Once you’ve made your way outside the Cathedral, you’ll need to jump off the ledge and use the wind currents to glide to safety. Open your glider as soon as you jump to ride the currents, which will carry you safely away.

Tip: Be sure to release your glider early to catch the wind currents effectively and avoid falling or taking damage.

3. Hide in the Tavern

After escaping, head to Angel’s Share Tavern, where you’ll find Diluc and Charles talking at the counter. You need to hide here temporarily to avoid the Knights of Favonius, who are still on the lookout for you.

Tip: Once inside the tavern, make your way to the second floor for a secure hiding spot.

4. Hide on the Second Floor

After entering the tavern, head to the second floor and hide while the Knights of Favonius ask the tavern owner about the whereabouts of the thieves. Wait until they leave to avoid detection.

Tip: You’ll need to remain hidden until the coast is clear. Take this time to rest and prepare for the next part of the quest.

5. Answer Diluc’s Questions

Once the Knights have left, Diluc will approach you to ask about your relationship with Venti and your attempt to steal the Holy Lyre. Be honest in your responses, as Diluc will then agree to meet with you again later.

Tip: Pay attention to Diluc’s questions as this will shape the interaction. Afterward, Diluc will tell you to return to the tavern at night once it has closed.

  • Fine Enhancement Ore x5

This quest provides an interesting blend of stealth, escape, and story progression, giving you insight into the characters of Venti and Diluc. As you continue your journey, you’ll uncover even more about the Holy Lyre and its significance to Mondstadt.
