Steps

1. Return to Mondstadt
2. Return to the Knights of Favonius headquarters with Jean

Return to Mondstadt

First things first, head east from the Knights of Favonius Headquarters. You'll trigger a scene where Jean is talking to a masked woman. Paimon thinks it's best to wait until they're done. Turns out, the masked lady is Anastasia, a Fatui Diplomat. She's pretty unhappy that the Knights aren't handling the Stormterror situation fast enough and basically says the Fatui will step in if they can't.

After that chat, another scene kicks off with you and Paimon. She'll thank you for sorting out the elemental flow and mention that the immediate aftermath of Stormterror's last attack is handled. She'll also explain that the Fatui's meddling is becoming a real problem and that it's probably best to discuss it somewhere more private.

Return to the Knights of Favonius headquarters with Jean

Now, head west back to the Knights of Favonius Headquarters and go inside. Jean's office is the first door on your left. Go in, and you'll find her talking with Lisa about this weird, ominous crystal that seems to be pulsing with power. Jean asks Lisa to analyze it.

Lisa says she needs more time and will check the library's restricted section. As she gets closer to the crystal, it gives off a small spark. She finds it odd because it doesn't react to you, even though you've got elemental abilities. Lisa tells Jean to leave the crystal with you, saying it's in capable hands. Jean then has one last favor: she'll ask if you'll accept the title of Honorary Knight. Accept it, and she'll thank you. This scene wraps up the quest and also bags you the achievement 'Knighthood Excellence'.
