Begin the Chronicle
A milestone route for every playable class, with the quests and system unlocks that matter most during your first twenty levels.
What this route accomplishes
Your first goal is to keep the regional story moving: unlock travel, reunite with your Anima at level 10, complete the first profession lessons, and arrive at level 20 ready for your class aptitude test and the Taming quests. Clearing every quest marker can wait.
Complete your class Anima route as soon as you reach level 10. It binds your Anima and opens the Atrium route. Every profession needs an Anima, so this comes first.
Choose your starting route
Gunslinger and Occultist begin together in Aurora. Legionnaire and Shadow Templar are both Ayin paths, but Shadow Templar begins on Intraliga Island before traveling to Intralux.

Build toward the reunion
Useful rule
The first Anima quest for each class has no earlier story prerequisite. It checks your job family and minimum level. If you take a side path or leave quests unfinished, return to the listed level 10 starting NPC.
Begin Anonymous Memo at level 9, then complete Miraculous Revival! and Attraction of Souls at level 10.
The first major unlock
Each route gives you an Amoena Flower and directs you to a race altar. Use the flower inside the marked altar region, follow the Star Tail Entrance objective, and continue to Star Tail. The final scripted sequence binds your Anima.
| Class | Start here | Required chain | Altar |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gunslinger | Drill Master Noah, Aurora | Sign on the Dotted Line , then Communion of Souls | Altar of White Wood |
| Occultist | Drill Master Noah, Aurora | Sign on the Dotted Line , then Communion of Souls | Altar of White Wood |
| Berserker | Priest Van, Fera Centrum | Damaged Package , then The Voice of Fate | Thunder Lasso |
| Huntress | Strider Maurisa, Natura Asylum | Package of Keepsakes , then Two Souls Calling | Tomb of Horns |
| Legionnaire | Bishop Dominic, Intralux | Sign Here... , then Resonance of Souls | Altar of Oath |
| Shadow Templar | Anonymous Memo at level 9 | Anonymous Memo , then Miraculous Revival! , then Attraction of Souls | Altar of Oath |
| Minstrel | Messenger Baria, Luna Deor | Nostalgic Song , then Song of the Soul | Nest of Moonlight |
Immediately after binding
Visit a local gatekeeper after the reunion. The game has several regional versions of Personal Space! Atrium, but they are mutually exclusive. Complete the one offered in your current hub.
Meet the Atrium Manager and establish the personal-space route.
Continue the manager's introductory problem.
Follow the first profession sampler lead.
Continue through Gardener Cepa's cooking lesson.
Follow the Requiem sampler.
Continue the Taming and Harvesting sampler.
Finish the introductory Pero sequence.
Profession foundations
In Anima Mode, take [11] Harvesting from Gardener Cepa and carry his recommendation to Healer Habiaria. Continue with [11] Red Mane Grass: interact with the marked grass, defeat the creature it summons, collect the plant, and return to Habiaria.
The second quest awards the Harvesting profession. This chain is the only way to learn it, and it teaches the field interaction you will use every time after that.
Take [12+] Farmer Shallot from Gardener Cepa and visit him at the Secret Mushroom Farm. In [12] The Inveniam, defeat 5 Mischievous Funguskeepers, then the Violent Funguskeeper that appears, and collect the Rare Mushroom Flower.
Completing it teaches Cultivation and nine starter recipes. The elemental Flamm, Lympha, and Terru branches continue from this foundation.
[15] Requiem sends you from Gardener Cepa to Matriarch Yorupa. [15] Soul Crystal asks you to defeat 20 Black Oxen, use the summoned soul object, and collect a Soul Crystal.
This chain is where you learn Purification, and nothing earlier grants it. Your level 10 bonding quest still comes first, because it gives you the Anima that performs the rite.
Keep the story moving
Optional recovery lesson
A chest near your race altar can begin this level 10 side quest after binding. Use the Dark Amoena Flower at the altar, defeat the attacker in the Kidnapper Hideout, and receive an Anima Resurrection Potion.
The quest teaches that a defeated Anima is exhausted and will recover. Atrium recovery can restore her as well.
Class checkpoint
Every class aptitude test starts a 40-minute timer and gives you a temporary low-power weapon. Equip that weapon before killing the ten required enemies. Accept the quest only when you are ready to travel to the marked hunting area.
| Class | Quest giver | Temporary weapon | Target |
|---|---|---|---|
| Occultist | Advisor Aaron | Useless Staff | 10 Slimes |
| Gunslinger | Drill Master Ethel | Useless Pistol | 10 Slimes |
| Berserker | Drill Master Dolke | Useless Knuckle | 10 Venom Carnival Bladderworts |
| Huntress | Veteran Huntress Sereka | Useless Dagger | 10 Bog Fairies |
| Legionnaire | Senior Knight Sorius | Useless Sword | 10 Red Frilled Lizards |
| Shadow Templar | Senior Knight Sorius | Battered Rapier | 10 Red Frilled Lizards |
| Minstrel | Mastermind Excelsior | Useless Lute | 10 One-Eyed Bats |
Clear inventory space, repair your normal gear, and identify the quest marker. The timer begins the moment you accept.
Pero milestone
In Anima Mode, speak with Gardener Cepa. Take his item and meet Drill Master Amaryllis.
Amaryllis gives you the temporary taming tool and starts a 10-minute timer. Tame the marked Wandering Onion and return to her. Completion grants the Taming profession.
Continue with Amaryllis and obtain the three specified Perfero taming results shown by the quest tracker.
Final check
If something does not appear
The post-reunion Meet Priest Odell quest lists the Shadow Templar job family, but its prerequisite currently names the Legionnaire awakening quest only. It may not appear after Attraction of Souls. This does not block Anima binding, Atrium access, the level 13 reunion gift, or the level 20 aptitude test.
