Guide to Outward's 'Questions and Corruption' quest. Learn how to start, complete tasks for Ellinara, burn a greasy fern at the Vigil Altar, and navigate the Corrupted Tombs within the 30-day timer.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Wait three days after completing 'Looking to the Future' by exploring or resting.
  2. 2
    Speak with Ellinara, located south of Elatt’s temple, to start the quest.
  3. 3
    Acquire a greasy fern. If you don't have one, purchase it from Laine the Alchemist (southwest) or find one near the Vigil Altar.
  4. 4
    Travel east from the Monsoon docks, up the hill, to find the Vigil Altar at the Vigil Pylon. Oliele will be there, but speaking to her is not required.
  5. 5
    Interact with the Vigil Altar to burn the greasy fern.
  6. 6
    After the vision, Oliele will speak with you. Choose any dialogue options; they do not affect the outcome.
  7. 7
    Return to Ellinara to receive the next task.
  8. 8
    Ellinara will ask you to join Oliele at the Corrupted Tombs in Chersonese. This requires travel to another region.
  9. 9
    To reach the Corrupted Tombs, you must pass through Ghost Pass and enter the north-eastern region of Chersonese. This requires completion of the quest 'A Myriad of Bones'.
  10. 10
    For the best outcome, choose to help Myriade during 'A Myriad of Bones' rather than destroy him.
  11. 11
    Once in the Corrupted Tombs and after completing 'A Myriad of Bones', you can pass the magic barrier with Oliele.
  12. 12
    Beyond the barrier, speak with Oliele and defeat the three green ghosts to end the corruption (if within the 30-day time limit).
  13. 13
    If the 30-day time limit was exceeded, speak with Myriade to distract the ghosts, then interact with the corruption. You will die and awaken in the same room.
  14. 14
    Regardless of the outcome, speak to Oliele to initiate an intervention by Elatt.
  15. 15
    After Oliele is saved, she will ask to be left alone.
  16. 16
    Return to Monsoon and speak with Ellinara to complete the quest.
Tips
  • The quest has a 30-day timer that begins when you accept the first task of burning a greasy fern at the Vigil Altar. Make the journey to the Corrupted Tombs immediately after receiving the task.
  • The green ghosts in the Corrupted Tombs can be overwhelming. Position yourself in the western area of the room after speaking with Oliele to lure them out one by one. Use the room's space or tunnels to kite them and create barriers.
