Hey there! Ready to tackle the Kindled Inspiration: Animal Traces quest in Infinity Nikki? Don't worry, I've got your back. It's a pretty straightforward one, mostly about finding a specific clothing item. Let's get you through it!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find Auri: First things first, you need to find Auri. He's hanging out west of the Meadow Activity Support Center, chilling with the sheep. Make sure you look for him between 05:00 and 21:00 in-game. If you're impatient like me sometimes, you can always use the Run, Pear-Pal app to fast forward time. Auri wants to make a memento of the animals, so he's looking for clothes with claw marks on them.
  2. 2
    Locate the Mark of Life Top: Your next stop is the Relic Hill, which is southwest of the Meadow Wharf Warp Spire. Keep an eye out for a chest there – it holds the sketch for the Mark of Life Top. This is the perfect item for Auri!
  3. 3
    Craft the Top: Now, you can't just equip the top right away. You'll need to craft it first. Head to your wardrobe and gather the materials: x6 Bitey Fabric, x6 Tricky Patch, and x40 Thread of Purity.
  4. 4
    Bitey Fabric: You get this by purifying Bitey Bags found near the Rockfall Valley Warp Spire.
  5. 5
    Tricky Patch: These come from purifying Spear Sacks, which you can find near the Memorial Mountains.
  6. 6
    Thread of Purity: This is more general – you'll earn it by defeating enemies, completing quests, and through the Mira journey.
  7. 7
    Equip and Return: Once you've crafted the Mark of Life Top, head back into your wardrobe and equip it. Then, make your way back to Auri. Talking to him with the right outfit equipped will trigger a cutscene, and bam! Quest complete.

  • Keep an eye on the in-game clock if you're having trouble finding Auri.
  • Stock up on those crafting materials whenever you see them – you'll need them for lots of things!
