The Last Knight is a charming side quest in the Rinascita region of Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves update. While not as epic as the main storyline, it offers a refreshing glimpse into life beyond Ragna City and provides some worthwhile rewards. This quest is significantly shorter and less demanding than others in the region, making it a quick and enjoyable diversion. Here's a concise guide to completing The Last Knight.
Starting The Last Knight Quest
Before embarking on this quest, ensure you've completed Chapter 2 of the main storyline, including the "What Yesterday Wept, Today Doth Sing" quest. We strongly recommend finishing the main questline before exploring Rinascita, as many side quests are locked until Chapter 2, Act 3 is complete.
Once you're finished, head to Egla Town in Whisperwind Haven and locate Cosimo. He's usually found near the first house beside the main road leading out of town, easily identifiable by a blue quest marker on your map.
The Night Reveries
This part involves a performance dedicated to a legendary knight. To participate, you must defeat the Mad Knight.
The Mad Knight only appears at night. Adjust your in-game time to between 6 PM and 6 AM, then go to the central pool in Egla Town. The Mad Knight isn't particularly challenging; use your strongest attacks to defeat it.
The Last Knight: Mimic Chests
After the Mad Knight battle, fly to the tallest tower in town and then to Carlow's location, marked on your quest tracker. He'll be unconscious near a large purple flower. Interact with the flower to be transported to a new area where you must identify real chests from mimics.
The first three chests are genuine. In the next set, only one is real; the others are mimics. The correct chest is the second one in the middle-left. Opening it yields Astrites and other rewards, but be prepared to fight the mimics that will attack afterward.
The Knight's Trail and The Strange Scent
Following your encounter with the mimics, you'll be tasked with visiting two locations associated with the legendary knight. This involves following quest markers and speaking to NPCs.
After speaking with Mr. Millkeeper, Abby mentions a strange scent. Follow the quest marker uphill to encounter a unique Chop Chop with invulnerable Leftless and Rightless. We recommend equipping a Questless Knight Echo in your main Echo slot to parry attacks and stun the Chop Chop effectively.
Defeating the Chop Chop reveals the truth: there was no legendary knight; Mr. Millkeeper and other Windmill Keepers posed as knights to protect the people. This revelation causes Carlow to flee in disbelief.
Find Carlow
Return to Egla Town during the day and find Carlow in one of the town plazas. He'll be confronted by knights who ridicule him. However, Carlow challenges one to a duel, abandoning the romanticized fantasy and embracing the true meaning of protection.
The quest concludes after Carlow's challenge. You'll receive Union XP, Astrites, and resources as rewards, completing The Last Knight quest within the Tales of the Isles event.
