Skirk Story Quest Locations in Genshin Impact
Image via: HoYoverse With the arrival of Genshin Impact Version 5.7, fans finally get the often-requested and coveted access to Skirk's Story Quest, 'Whispers Betwixt Stars and Night' or Crystallina Chapter: Act I, as it's called in-game. The mysterious swordswoman, seen most famously as Tartaglia's Abyssal tutor, comes into focus as a major narrative figure that strips layers of intrigue from her past, her teacher Surtalogi, and her special connection to Khaenri'ah. 1. Liyue's Hidden Calm: Bubu Pharmacy This adventure starts off in a place well known to Teyvat explorers—Bubu Pharmacy in Liyue. Famous for its calming atmosphere and enigmatic proprietor Baizhu, this location surprisingly serves as the launchpad for Skirk's supernatural story. Players are then challenged to find Baizhu in the back room, accessible through a door on the side. Despite being apparently unremarkable, this tranquil beginning makes a pointed counterpoint to the harrowing truths that emerge, establishing a wistful mood that highlights Skirk's inner turmoil.

This is fitting ground for a story related to Khaenri'ah. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo In this setting, players battle Rifthounds, beings further connected to the Abyss Order. Their unexpected establishment alludes to the growing reach of the Abyss and foretells the threats lurking beneath the waves. This battle isn't just a physical encounter. It more literally acts as the player's passage from this surface world into Skirk's shadier past. It also relates to Genshin's constantly expanding lore in regards to the Abyss and their sinners. 3. Abyssal Rift: The Descent Into Memory The dramatic conclusion to Skirk's story takes place in the Abyssal Rift, a new area of Genshin's shadowy underbelly that we've never explored before. This cutscene-heavy sequence doesn't just feature pretty visuals. It gives players a rare look at Surtalogi, one of Khaenri'ah's Five Sinners of Khaenri'ah and Skirk's master.

It's a journey into Skirk's past, into the mysteries of the Abyss, and perhaps even into happenings that will affect future content.

Genshin Impact Update 5.7 introduces Dahlia to the roster
Image via HoYoverse Genshin Impact Version 5.7 is set to launch on June 18, and HoYoverse has dropped a surprise — Dahlia, the long-rumored 4-star Hydro Sword wielder from Mondstadt, is finally joining the roster. Here's a crisp breakdown of what you can expect from this newest addition to the game. Who is Dahlia in Genshin Impact 5.7? Dahlia isn't exactly a new face in the lore. First mentioned way back in Version 1.3, he's been a part of Genshin's whispered history for years, now stepping into the spotlight as the 'Herald of Barbatos.' As a high-ranking member of the Church of Favonius, Dahlia brings a unique blend of piety and mischief. He's charismatic, chill, and — like many from Mondstadt — quite fond of a good drink. Genshin's FIRST Hydro Shielder?! | Dahlia Initial Beta Kit, Builds, Teams Overview & Analysis When Is Dahlia Coming to Genshin Impact 5.7? Mark your calendars—Version 5.7 launches on June 18, 2025, and Dahlia will be featured in the first-half character banners alongside the long-awaited Skirk and Emilie. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses In Ubatuba Container House | Search Ads Search Now Undo Dahlia Playstyle & Role in Teams Dahlia is a 4-star Hydro Sword character, and his kit is designed around two core functions: Shielding Support Attack Speed Buffing This makes him a natural candidate for fast-paced, on-field DPS teams that benefit from Hydro application and faster Normal Attacks — think Yoimiya, Wriothesley, or Ayato. However, early impressions from beta players paint a mixed picture. His off-field Hydro application is limited, his shield is modest at best, and his energy costs are on the higher side. His Attack Speed boost is also nothing groundbreaking, especially when compared to what other 4-star supports like Mika already offer. New Update! Version 5.7 Banners Dahlia Fully Details With Skirk - Genshin Impact Dahlia Story Impact & Launch Details in Genshin Impact Version 5.7 Narratively, Dahlia left a strong impression in Version 5.6, showcasing his free-spirited nature and loyalty to Barbatos. This personality adds depth to Mondstadt's lore, making his arrival more meaningful for lore lovers. He'll be featured alongside Skirk and Emilie on the event banners in the first phase of Version 5.7, but synergy-wise, there's little overlap between them. Still, for players building Mondstadt-themed teams or looking for niche utility, Dahlia might find a place. If you're a collector, a Mondstadt fan, or running a team that needs Hydro support and faster hits, Dahlia is worth a look. Otherwise, it might be smart to wait and see how the meta settles post-launch.
