Overview

The Shrine of Ages is a special Expedition Area where you can permanently unlock and revisit Special Events from the past, and discover new mini-events that exist only at the Shrine. Events you unlock here are yours forever, with no time pressure and no expiration. The Shrine currently has 15+ mini-events, each with its own creatures, quests, and exclusive rewards. New events are added over time.

How to Unlock the Shrine of Ages

The Shrine of Ages is deep in the desert. Unlocking it requires working through a chain of quests across multiple Expedition Areas:
  1. Complete “Camouflage”, the 3rd main quest in Three Points Crossing
  2. Complete “Next Stop: Dragon Lair!”, a side quest in the Three Points Crossing quest market. This also unlocks the Dragon Lair.
  3. Complete “Question To Axe”, found at the Dig Site Quests market inside the Dragon Lair. This opens the underground Ruins area.
  4. In the Ruins quest market: complete the four directional quests. East, South, West, and North
  5. Complete “Tunnel Locked On”, also in the Ruins quest market, available after the four directional quests. This unlocks the Shrine of Ages.
The Dragon Lair is a prerequisite. You’ll pass through it on the way to the Shrine. See the Dragon Lair guide if you haven’t unlocked it yet.

How It Works

​
Meeting Motes

When you first arrive at the Shrine of Ages, you’ll meet Motes, the Shrine keeper. You need to defeat Motes in battle and complete their quests to gain full access to the Shrine and its market.

​
Shrine Tickets

Shrine Tickets are the currency used to purchase Bracelets (event unlocks) at the Shrine Market.
  • You earn 1 Shrine Ticket per player level. They accumulate automatically as you level up
  • You can also trade Stempos for extra Shrine Tickets if you want to unlock events faster
  • Tickets are permanent. They don’t expire

​
Bracelets: How Events Are Unlocked

Each past event or mini-event at the Shrine is represented by a Shrine Bracelet. To access an event:
3-step Bracelet flow: Buy Bracelet, Equip on Wardrobe look and Save, Return to Shrine to see your event
  1. Buy the Bracelet from the Shrine Market using Shrine Tickets. Each Bracelet unlocks one event permanently.
  2. Equip the Bracelet onto your current avatar look in your Wardrobe and save the look.
  3. Return to the Shrine of Ages. You’ll see the monsters, quests, and rewards for that event waiting for you.
  4. Complete the event using Shrine Stones (earned by defeating Shrine monsters) as the event’s internal currency.
You can only wear one Bracelet at a time. To switch events, go to your Wardrobe, swap the Bracelet for a different one, and save your look. Your progress in the previous event stays exactly where you left it.

​
Once Bought, Forever Yours

Once you purchase a Bracelet, that event is permanently unlocked on your account. There’s no time limit, no expiration, and no pressure. You can return to an event at any time by equipping its Bracelet.

What’s at the Shrine

​
Mini-Events

Shrine event creatures, items, and exclusive rewards from past events
Each mini-event has:
  • Exclusive creatures to discover and battle
  • Quests specific to that event
  • Unique rewards only available through that event
Each event has unique drops. If you need a specific item, check whether it’s available through a Shrine event and unlock that Bracelet first.

​
Shrine Marketplace

The Shrine also has a permanent marketplace where you can spend Shrine Stones on Chests, Keys, and Reactions. You earn Shrine Stones by defeating monsters within the Shrine while wearing any Bracelet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Make sure you saved your Wardrobe look after equipping the Bracelet. The look must be saved for the Shrine to recognize the equipped item. After saving, return to the Shrine of Ages.
