Lianna and Eliza

Guide to completing the Lianna and Eliza side story in Octopath Traveler. Learn where to find the characters, how to defeat the Remnant Leader, and claim your rewards.

Hey there! Ready to tackle another side story? This one, called "Lianna and Eliza," is pretty straightforward but requires you to have finished up the Chapter 4 stories for both Ophilia and H'aanit. Once you've done that, head over to Flamesgrace.

You'll find Lianna in a side room on the left within the cathedral. Fun fact: she's got a really nice item called the Bishop's Staff equipped! You can actually snag that before you even talk to her, which is a nice little bonus. After you chat with her, she'll explain that she's worried about the people of Wispermill after a past incident and wants to go there to make amends. So, off you go to Wispermill!

Once you arrive in Wispermill, look for Lianna and Eliza chilling out not too far from the windmill. They're interested in checking out an altar that was involved in Ophilia's story, but someone's standing in their way. To actually start this quest and see it through, you'll need either Olberic or H'aanit in your active party. Make sure whoever you bring is pretty well-leveled, as you'll be heading into a Danger Level 58 area.

After you talk to Eliza, she'll mention a den located deep within the Forest of Purgation. This is where the action's at! To get there, make your way to the westernmost entrance of the Western Wispermill Flats. You'll see a signpost there. Just west of that signpost is the entrance to the Forest of Purgation. Your main goal is to push all the way west through the forest until you find some kind of altar. That's where you'll find the Remnant Leader.

Your task is to challenge this Remnant Leader to a fight. Now, this boss has a decent amount of strength (they say eight, which is a bit vague but implies they're tough!) and can hit you with a variety of elemental spells, so it might feel a little challenging. The good news? They're weak to spears! This means your Warrior's Thousand Spears skill is going to be your best friend here. Use it to break down their defenses quickly and secure the win. Once you defeat the leader, the quest is complete!
