Lost In The Sands is a world quest available in the desert area of Sumeru.
Your objective is to look for Tirzad and eventually find a way out of the hole via the ruins.
Here’s a walkthrough and guide of Lost in the Sands in Genshin Impact.
To begin the quest, talk to Katheryne at Sumeru and she’ll mention about this commission.
Go to Aaru Village
Next, head on over to Aaru Village to look for the merchant from Monstadt.
Search for the archaeology team
Head east of the village to look for footprints. The location is marked in the map.
When you reach the quest marker, you’ll see footprints. Follow the footprints to the next marker.
Keep going and you’ll reach a cave.
Go all the way until you reach a big pit. Jump down into the pit.
Talk to the three people
You will see some Sumpter Beasts here. Talk to the three people marked on the screen.
Talk to the fourth person
Next, talk to the fourth person in the distance named Jeht.
Meet the others with Jeht
After meeting Jeht, go back to the others. You would have found Tirzad and the rest.
Enter the ruins
Next, head to the area near the ruins together with Tirzad.
To enter the ruins, use an Anemo character and an Anemo attack on the pile of sand to reveal the console.
Start the console to enter.
Defeat the opponents
You will immediately meet a Primal Construct. Defeat the opponent.
Continue exploring
Head to the next door and open it with the console.
You will come across some traps. Just dodge them as you make your way past them.
Another Primal Construct will appear. Take it out.
Now, head to the Dendroculus. After getting the Dendroculus, stand on the platform and activate it. It’s an elevator.
How to solve the broken pyro statue puzzle
In the lower level, you have to solve the pyro statue puzzle. You will see 3 regular pyro statues. You can light them up with pyro first.
For the broken pyro statue that is in blue, you need to wait for the flying thing to come near.
Once it’s near the broken statue, use an electro attack to stun it. It will then fix the broken pyro statue.
You will now be able to light the pyro statue.
In case you froze the flying object, you can use Dendro to bring it back to life.
Now that the chest and console are unlocked, you can proceed ahead. Continue to follow the Seelie in.
Talk to Tirzad
Keep on exploring. You will then need to talk to Tirzad. Just keep descending down the ruins until you trigger the cutscene.
Continue investigating ruins with Jeht
As Tirzad is unconscious, continue ahead with Jeht. Activate the elevator to go up.
In the upper room, you will find a new device. Interact with it.
Report your findings to Jebrael
Return to Jebrael and Tirzad to tell them about the new device you found. Jeht calls the device BenBen.
Talk to Jeht
Next, talk to Jeht.
Continue exploring
Go back up the elevator where you found the device BenBen. This time, you can use the stone slate to open the door.
Continue ahead past the traps.
Along the way, you will find a Dendroculus above an Anubis statue.
Keep going forward until you reach a blue crystal. Take the crystal and then head to the platform which is glowing. It will point a laser towards another device and open the door.
In the next room, defeat the Primal Construct and get the chest. Here, you will find two blue crystals instead. Get them both.
Place the crystals on the two glowing platforms. On the platform that can be rotated, rotate it until it points a laser towards the opposite device.
The slate device is then unlocked. Use the stone slate to open the door.
Continue ahead and you’ll find two more Primal Constructs. Defeat them and get the chest.
Exit the area
Finally, you can follow the Seelie out of the ruins and exit the area. The quest ends here.
