Accompany Lyney as he takes you to a rented house, then help him distribute supplies to the other children. Upon returning to the house, he notices Freminet, who asks for extra food and clean clothes. Lyney finds this request suspicious and quickly senses that his brother might be hiding something from him.Distribute Supplies Arlecchino Story Quest Ignis Purgatorius Act 1

With no other option, Freminet takes the Traveler, Lyney, and Paimon behind a ship, where he introduces them to a red-haired girl named Clervie. Although she claims to be from the House of Hearth, Lyney is certain that none of the children are named Clervie, and he quickly realizes that she is the “Phantom Girl” Arlecchino is searching for. This revelation startles Lyney, as hiding the person Arlecchino is seeking could be seen as betrayal, and he might face consequences for it. However, Freminet refuses to turn her in, explaining that she was the voice that guided him in saving Chepleau from poison.

Into the Sunlight - Final part of Arlecchino Story Quest Ignis Purgatorius Act 1

For the final part of the Arlecchino Story Quest, head to the nameless ruins at Mont Esus East. To get there, use the designated teleport waypoint and make your way to the marked location. 

Mont Esus East Arlecchino Story Quest

Once you arrive, a cutscene reveals Clervie's past. Before becoming a Harbinger, Clervie was killed by her own mother, Crucabena, who also happened to be the “Mother” of the House. The cutscene depicts the cruel treatment the children endured under Mother's control and Dottore's influence. Despite this harsh environment, Clervie had one friend, “Peruere” or Perrie, who also saw through "Mother"’s lies.

Peruere suggested killing Crucabena to free themselves from her oppressive control, but Clervie opposed this plan, knowing how powerful Crucabena could be. However, after a duel, Clervie was killed by Peruere. A year later, Arlecchino reveals that Peruere killed Crucabena at the very same spot, became a Harbinger, and took on the name "Arlecchino."

Soon after, the children arrive, along with the traitors who were mentioned earlier. As Arlecchino prepares to begin the "execution," everyone—including the trio and the Traveler—tries to stop it. The Knave agrees to hold off on the execution, but only if they win a duel.

The Traveler challenges The Knave to a boss fight in the same arena.

Arlecchino Story Quest Ignis Purgatorius Act 1 Traveler Children Fight Arlecchino

For this boss battle, we recommend having a strong healer or at least an NRE, as these can be used to clear the Bond of Life that The Knave applies to your character. Clearing the Bond of Life allows you to perform a charged attack that deals true damage to her and staggers her.

Phase 1 The Knave

When fighting The Knave, take note of her two phases:

  • Phase 1: She attacks with a single scythe. If her HP drops below 70%, her attacks and abilities become enhanced.
  • Phase 2: When her HP reaches 9%, she becomes invincible and transitions to phase two, where she attacks with dual scythes.

Phase 2 The Knave

After the battle, Arlecchino spoke to her children, revealing the truth about the planned "execution." She explained the ruse and the reasons behind it. Additionally, Arlecchino officially released Clervie from the House of the Hearth, allowing her to leave behind the nightmare and seek freedom from her past.
