Guide to Chapter 5 of Child of Light, including finding Achilles, recruiting Norah, and obtaining the Rough Citrine Ocui.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the start, go left towards the windwheels, the supposed location of Achilles. Investigate all flying pigs by using Finn's (FF) light to check for 'illuminating ink'.
  2. 2
    Be aware of new enemies: a strong, slow rock goblin and a stumpy tree thing weak to fire. Later, you'll encounter geodudes with strong defenses and enemies that counter physical attacks.
  3. 3
    Aurora's sister, Norah, joins your party. She has low stats except for DEF and SPEED, but possesses TIME MAGE spells like QUICKEN, SLOW, and PARALYZE. Consider switching her in at the start of battles for buffs and then replacing her.
  4. 4
    Flying left from Norah's position yields CONFESSION #7.
  5. 5
    Continue past the second hollowed mountain. To the left, find an HP STARDUST. At the base is a red door leading to a mine.
  6. 6
    Inside the mine, use Finn's (FF) light through a wall to collect a DEF STARDUST.
  7. 7
    The mine contains a fire ghost lady (approx. 200 HP) who can counterattack and is likely weak to water.
  8. 8
    Proceed deeper into the mine to find another door with more loot and a nearby MAGIC STARDUST.
  9. 9
    Open a closed door with a switch, then push a crate onto another switch to reveal a floordoor leading to the final room. This room contains significant loot, including your first ROUGH CITRINE OCULI and CONFESSION #2.
  10. 10
    Exit the mine and continue flying left until you pass through another mountain containing a windwheel. You'll need to flip switches to open the path.
  11. 11
    Rotate the windwheel 3/4 of a full turn to open the path between the lower doors.
  12. 12
    Find a STRENGTH STARDUST in this area.
  13. 13
    A flying pig here is Achilles. Collect him and later deliver him to the lady in Capilli for a reward of 4 HP STARDUSTS.
  14. 14
    Follow signs pointing towards Bolmus Populi, initially directing left, then upwards.
  15. 15
    When facing the mountain you're meant to ascend, keep going left to find treasures and an easy miniboss.
  16. 16
    Discover more doors to secret treasure rooms. One contains rising and falling lava and requires Finn (FF) to light switches to open doors.
  17. 17
    Another mine outside has a man at the bottom who asks for light.
  18. 18
    In the furthest left area, a door leads to a miniboss fight against a fiery sphere guy (approx. 300 HP), who is very weak to water. He is accompanied by regular-sized enemies. If you are around level 20, you should be prepared.
  19. 19
    Defeating the fiery sphere miniboss earns you a DEFSTAR.
  20. 20
    Fly up the mountain from this area to reach the town.
Tips
  • Norah can be useful at the start of battles for her buffs before being swapped out.
  • Keep an eye out for hidden paths and switches, especially when dealing with windwheels and lava rooms.
  • Exploit enemy weaknesses, particularly the fire ghost lady's potential weakness to water and the fiery sphere miniboss's weakness to water.
  • Don't forget to return Achilles to the lady in Capilli for a reward.
