Sea Of Stars True Ending Guide
Upon completing the first playthrough, one stone from the seven-stone Stonehenge-like structure in theMoorlands area will begin toglow. Each glowing stone symbolizes the completion of asingle milestonein the grand quest for the true ending, and you may click on each stone to receive a vision of a character with whom you must interact to light up their respective stone (though most of the time these visions aren’t very helpful).
You can also talk to your party members in the camp at any time to get more information on where to go and what to do for each step (or just keep reading). Once you have completed all other tasks, you mustreturnhere to interact with the stone structure and begin the real quest for the true ending.
The Dweller’s Fall Arena
The Dweller’s Fall Arena is one of the main activities required to reach the true ending, butyou can only unlock it in the port city of Briskafter recruiting the party memberB’st.
Most of the activities listed here, as well as this arena quest, also double as each party member’s ultimate weapon and armor quests, so if you find the arena combat too difficult, you may want to try one of the other activities first and fine-tune your party gear before attempting the arena.
Collecting All Sixty Rainbow Conchs
You have likely already come across some of these during your travels. Well, it turns out thatcollecting all 60 of themand handing them to Mirna in Docarri village is necessary to unlock the true ending. Some of them can actually be found while you are doing the other true-ending quests, so you may want to tackle this grueling task after you have completed all of the other quests first.
