A mysterious oasis guards a puzzle that has baffled many Travelers-hidden switches, shifting symbols, and a reward that only reveals itself to those who piece the clues together. Here’s how to solve the challenge in Genshin Impact’s “Memories of the Oasis.”
If you’ve reached the end of “The Dirge of Bilqis” world quest chain, you will have reached the Eternal Oasis, a beautiful place where time is frozen. The centermost part of the oasis has three wooden thrones, each with blue sigils marked on them. If you interact with the chairs, they will reveal that you can “embed” missing blue sigils into them.
The three blue sigils are scattered around the oasis. Finding them will reward you with several Common Chests, and embedding them all into the thrones will reward you with a juicy Luxurious Chest. You’ll also get the hidden achievement, “In her Full Glory …”
Notably, if you and two other friends sit in the three thrones using the game’s co-op mode, you’ll get another achievement: “A Very Long Engagement.” (We tried to replicate this with Fischl’s bird and Amber’s Baron Bunny, but it seems like you really do need two more players and not just placeholders on the thrones.)
Finding the Memories of the Oasis in Genshin Impact
The Memories of the Oasis quest in Genshin Impact challenges players to locate hidden fragments tied to the ancient desert oasis.

Where is Orchis of Pairidaeza located in Genshin Impact
Orchis of Pairidaeza is the main area within The Orchard of Pairidaeza (also called the Eternal Oasis) in Genshin Impact. It’s an underground zone in Mt. Damavand, Desert of Hadramaveth, Great Red Sand region of Sumeru.
Access Details
Unlock full access via the “The Eternal Dream, Ever Lush” World Quest (after prerequisites like Golden Slumber and earlier Desert quests). Alternatively, glide northwest from a nearby teleport waypoint without quests.
Puzzle Context
This is the starting hub for the Memories of the Eternal Oasis flower bud puzzles (three sigils from left, right, and farther right paths), as discussed previously.
How to unlock Orchard of Pairidaeza without quests
Orchard of Pairidaeza (Eternal Oasis) in Genshin Impact can be reached without quests by gliding from a nearby teleport waypoint. Use the Mt. Damavand area waypoint in Desert of Hadramaveth, then head northwest into a cave entrance and glide down through gaps.
Step-by-Step Gliding Route
Teleport to the waypoint northwest of the Orchard (near sandstorm edge in Great Red Sand, Sumeru). Glide northwest toward the cliffside cave opening, drop through a small gap, and continue gliding downward into the underground oasis area. Tall characters help spot the path; Sayu or similar for minor clips if stuck, but basic gliding works for most players.
Limitations
This grants visual access and puzzle entry (like Memories sigils in Orchis of Pairidaeza) but skips official unlocks, lore, and some interactables tied to “The Eternal Dream, Ever Lush” questline. Full features require quests from Golden Slumber onward.
