As the Courtyard in Sring Once Appeared Guide – Genshin Impact
As the Courtyard in Spring Once Appeared is one of the main story quest lines that you’re able to start and complete in the Golden Apple Archipelago. It should look like this once you start it:
First of all, as it says, when you start the quest you’ll need to rest and wait until the following day. So just open the Menu and go under the Time undersection. Choose the fast-forward time to the next day from 6 o’clock in the morning. The quest will then begin.
The cutscene where Paimon wakes you up begins. The talking boat and the talking squirrel will be filling up the cutscene with most of their dialogue. They will be telling you the information concerning something weird and strange happening to the world. The rest of the gang will then come over and something really strange will start happening to the world.
Kazuha will get concerned about how it isn’t an illusion and it will begin!
The Quest Has Started
The first thing you need to do to start As the Courtyard in Spring Once Appeared is to board Mitiboru and sail to the island where the strange phenomena started happening. It is going to be located on the little island to the east of where you were, about 800 meters away.
Kazuha will find the Bonsai from his family here. A cutscene will play out where he will be talking about his past. You will get inside the dojo now and the puzzle quests of As the Courtyard in Spring Once Appeared will begin!
Operate the Device and Investigate Further
You will be inside small rooms which will have strange little devices inside. The whole point of and the key to solving these puzzles and advancing forward will be through these very small machines.
You will have to focus on a couple of things:
- The Ramparts – These are the machines that will fire out the bolts. These bolts can be colored in different variations as you can see in the picture above. You will have to load them or reload them to change colors when you find some appropriate stars.
- Stars – These are the stars that you’ll find throughout the map. You can pick them up and have them in your inventory until you load them into the Rampart. They might be tricky to find but you’ll always look for them when you need a different color.
- Rotation Devices – These are the small circular flying things that you can Rotate and Elevate. These are the keys to solving all of the puzzles inside this big dojo and these rooms. Always make sure that you point them toward the appropriate other rotation device and that the end goal of the fire will be towards the locked tablets or chests.
- Tablets – These are the keystones in a way to open a door or pass into a room. You will find them everywhere throughout this entire map. The biggest goal in advancing is them.
- Monasteries – These are the small blue-ish houses that you’ll find usually to locations where you’ll need to advance. You load them up with the Tablets and a door will open, an air passage will start, etc. Everything that you’ll need to advance further.
To see how to pass through the first puzzle room and learn about the devices that you’ll be needing to use, check out our guide Genshin Impact: Operate The Device And Investigate Further Guide.
Investigate the Area
Once you pass through the first puzzle you’ll come to the second one. This one is different because of the changing rooms that you’ll experience for the first time. You will be met with a door that will change its rooms behind it with every click that you’ll do.
For this one, you will have to go to the first one first, control all the rotating devices, and open up the chest. Then choose the second option where you’ll be fighting in a Dojo with a lot of enemies and then the third one to finish it and get through the door.
You can check out our guide where it is explained in full detail – Genshin Impact: Investigate The Area Guide.
Investigate the Surroundings And Find a Way to Open the Door
Congratulations on passing the previous one. For this one, it is much more simple. You will have 2 monasteries on each side of the door. You will have to look for the tablets to be placed inside each one of them. Once you find these tablets the door will open.
For the first tablet, you’ll simply just have to walk a little to the right of the right monastery on the picture. For the other one, you’ll have to follow the road all the way to the end. You will have to go a little lower with the levels and then keep on climbing the uphill road where there will be electric bolts being fired upon you.

Place the Offerings
This one is pretty straightforward forward too. You will have to find the 3 offerings. These offerings are those same tablets that you’ve used so far in your journey. They will be a little different this time because they will give you some lore about Kazuha’s family. They will be followed with a couple of sound messages so be sure to listen to them.
As you climb up the levels, because there will be a lot here, almost 5 floors, you will be seeing stars and tablets along the way. Pick all of them up and place them in the monasteries that are also on these levels. There is the last monastery at the top next to the door. Place the last tablet there and the door will open.

Look Around for the Items You Need
After talking with Kazuha you’ll go outside of the dojo now. Simply climb up on the hill as shown on the map and pick up the chest over there. Clear out all the enemies first and be careful because there are many of them too!

Explore the Area and Look for an Exit
In this one, you’ll have tons of doors with the Ressurection activated. This means that the puzzles with the floors being upside down will begin. They are pretty tricky to pass and you’ll have to focus mostly on the rotation devices and placing the tablets inside the monasteries. There will be a really nice cut-scene where you’ll learn about Kazuha and his dad at the end.

Enter the Dojo and Defeat the Opponents
This is as simple as it gets. Simply defeat the high-level tanky samurai and it will be over with. Be careful because he does a lot of damage if he manages to strike you.
You will have one more exploration of the area that you’ll need to go through to pass after this one too. Simply open the guide that we’ve linked before. They are mostly the same and very similar to each other.
For this one, you’ll have to focus on getting the rotation devices on the bottom floor as well as on the top floor. The goal is to hit the bolt toward the tablets and open the door by placing it into the monasteries. There will be another cool cutscene with Kazuha and his dad at the end.
Follow the Voice
Simply go to where the voice is leading you. After this, there will be a sequence where you’ll be running from the right to the left. SImply keep going left and the sub-quest will be finished.
Look Around For the Items You Need
Yet another pick up these items kind of a quest. Go to the position as shown on the map and defeat all the enemies around the entire zone. Loot the chest and you’ll finish it.
Be careful because there are many more monsters here and they are much stronger than the last time.
Continue Onward in the Shattered Space
This is the last chapter of this quest. Follow the road that will be given to you. Search all the corners and find all the tablets and stars if you want to be able to proceed further.
Follow the Electric Orb as it will show you the way and build bridges for you. Also use all the air passages that you can.
