How to Complete Kindled Inspiration: Yesteryear's She in Infinity Nikki

Infinity Nikki, the fifth and latest installment in the beloved Nikki series, is an enchanting blend of dress-up mechanics and open-world exploration. One of the fascinating side quests you’ll come across is Kindled Inspiration: Yesteryear's She. This quest requires you to find and wear a specific dress to inspire the NPC sculptor named Alber. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you complete this quest.

How to Start the Kindled Inspiration Quest

To begin the Kindled Inspiration: Yesteryear's She quest, head to Florawish in the Heartcraft Kingdom. You’ll find Alber standing in front of the Mayor’s Residence during the daytime. Speak to him to trigger the quest. Alber wants to create a new hairstyle to honor Liliana, Florawish’s most beloved mayor from the past. However, he needs to see her famous dress, Paper Crane’s Flight, to find the inspiration.

How to Get the Paper Crane’s Flight Dress

If you already have the Paper Crane’s Flight dress, you can equip it and speak with Alber to complete the quest. But if you don’t have it yet, here’s how to get it:

1. Collect Dews of Inspiration: You need to collect Dews of Inspiration to get the sketch for Paper Crane’s Flight. These are purple sprite-like stars wrapped in black, and you need to purify them to collect them. You’ll find an abundance of them around Florawish and Memorial Mountains. *Hint: they’re the purple balls you’ve likely already been purifying and collecting*

2. Visit Kilo the Cadenceborn: Once you have collected enough Dews of Inspiration, head to Memorial Mountains and find Kilo the Cadenceborn. You need a total of 33 Dews to get the sketch for Paper Crane’s Flight. Use 3 Dews for the first level and another 30 for the second level.

3. Craft the Dress: After obtaining the sketch, you need the following materials to craft Paper Crane’s Flight:

• 2 Foodie Bees

• 2 Floof Yarns

• 120 Threads of Purity

Crafting Materials Locations

Here’s where you can find the materials needed to craft Paper Crane’s Flight:

• Foodie Bees: These can be found in areas with abundant flowers and plants. Look for them buzzing around flower patches. Use your Bug Catching net to capture the Foodie Bees.

• Floof Yarns: Collect Floof Yarns from grooming Fluffys (fluffy dogs) using Animal Grooming. Floof Yarns can also be found in chests scattered throughout the world.

• Threads of Purity: These are common crafting materials that can be found in various locations, including chests and as drops from enemies.

Once you have crafted the Paper Crane’s Flight dress, equip it and return to Alber in Florawish. Speak with Alber again to inspire him and complete the quest. As a reward, you’ll receive 20 Diamonds and the Nostalgic Blossom hairstyle sketch.

Just a Few Tips

1. Collect Dews of Inspiration Early: Since you need a total of 33 Dews of Inspiration, start collecting them early in the game. This will save you time when you’re ready to complete the quest.

2. Explore Thoroughly: Take your time to explore Florawish and Memorial Mountains thoroughly. There are plenty of Dews of Inspiration and other valuable resources to be found.

3. Stock Up on Materials: Make sure you have enough crafting materials before attempting to craft the dress. This will ensure a smooth and efficient crafting process. Remember, collecting materials also unlocks more sketches and abilities in Heart of Infinity.

Now that you know how to complete the Kindled Inspiration: Yesteryear's She quest, all that’s left is to gather your materials, craft the dress, and inspire Alber to unlock your rewards. By taking the time to collect the Dews of Inspiration early and fully exploring Florawish and Memorial Mountains, you’ll make the process much smoother.
