Memory[]
The Wise Grandparent can be found on a square platform at the start of the Archives in Vault of Knowledge, in the large room before the maze. This Spirit has a standard memory with 9 memory fragments and a 15-minute overall time limit.
Deep Calling is recommended to stunt the many Dark Crabs inhabiting the hallways of the Archives, to prevent them from attacking the player during the memory.
As their memory unfolds, the Wise Grandparent can be seen ponderously exploring the maze-like Archives until they reach its end.
At the end of the memory, the Wise Grandparent stands thoughtfully with their hands clasped behind their back. The player then grabs a bell from underneath their Cape and rings it, catching the attention of the Spirit. They bring their hand to their chin and think for a short while, before they raise up their arm in epiphany, with a glowing exclamation mark blinking above their head.
