Follow our step-by-step guide to complete the Dying Wish quest in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. Gather ingredients, craft a potion, and help Blythe's father.
Hey there! Ready to tackle another side quest? This one's called 'Dying Wish,' and it's a pretty straightforward fetch-and-deliver mission. You'll need to grab a few specific items to help a sick father. Let's get you set up!
Walkthrough
- 1First things first, you need to find Blythe. She'll be hanging out on the steps between the Residences and the Commercial District. Chat with her, and she'll explain that her father is really sick and needs a special potion, but the shop doesn't have the ingredients.
- 2Your next stop is the Chocobo Emporium in the Commercial District. This is where the potion will be made. Just a heads-up, this shop has specific hours: it's only open between 11:00 and 17:00, so make sure you plan your ingredient gathering around that.
- 3Now, let's hunt for those ingredients. You'll need three things:
- Thunderclap Cap: This glowing blue fungus can be found on the west side of the Warehouse District. Keep an eye out for it!
- 4Mandragora Root: You can buy this from a shop called “Grocer,” which is located just east of the Inn in South Station. This shop is open from 10:00 to 19:00, and the root will set you back 400 gil.
- 5Shaolong Gui Shell: Head over to Old Town and find Seger. You can purchase this item from him for 600 gil.
- 6Once you've got all three ingredients, head back to the Chocobo Emporium. Give them to the shopkeeper so they can make the potion.
- 7Finally, take the completed potion back to Blythe. Hand it over, and you'll have successfully completed the Dying Wish quest!
Tips
- Remember those shop hours! Missing the Chocobo Emporium's window means you'll have to wait until the next day to finish the quest.
- The quest is available from Day 2, between 06:00 and 22:00.
