Genshin Impact – The World of Aranara quest guide

gamepur.com:

In Genshin Impact, The World of Aranara is the first quest in the Aranyaka: Part II – Dream Nursery world quest series, and it starts automatically when you complete The Lost Child, the final quest in the Aranyaka: Part I – Woodland Encounter world quest series. The quest takes place in and around Vimara Village, Sumeru, and tasks you with helping Rana and the other villagers.

First, follow the map marker to Vimara Village and speak to Amadhiah. After he gives you the Vintage Lyre, interact with the Waverider (the boat that appears nearby) and sail it along the river, following the map markers. Shortly after you pass Sumeru City, the river will narrow, and the map marker (as well as those strange traces you first saw during The Lost Child), will lead you up a path to the right. So get out of the Waverider (hold the jump button) and follow that path. When you reach Vanarana, keep following the traces until you get to a strange arch — a Phantasmal Gate, in fact — in the middle of a pond. When you get close to that, a cutscene will start.

After the cutscene, go to your inventory and open the Gadget tab. Equip the Vintage Lyre then, while standing under the Phantasmal Gate, use the Vintage Lyre (see the button prompt under your character portraits). Actually playing the lyre is a bit like a rhythm action game, only timing doesn’t matter. The confusing thing with this song is that you have to raise the key in order to play it. Do this by holding the button indicated on-screen, then press the buttons that correspond to the highlighted note. Once you’ve played the song, walk through the Phantasmal Gate
