Genshin Impact: All 3 Complete the Oracle Pillar’s Picture Puzzles

The “Narration Footsteps” quest is part of this year’s Summer Event for Genshin Impact and it requires you to complete all 3 Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzles.

You’ll be shown a picture of some sort of rune, then you just need to use the pillars in the room to imitate the rune. It’s fairly simple on paper, but it can still manage to be tricky since the puzzle lets you make mistakes easily. But you’re reading our guide, Traveler, so you won’t make mistakes!

In this guide, we’ll tell you how to easily solve all 3 of the Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzles in Genshin Impact 4.8.

All 3 Complete the Oracle Pillar’s Picture Puzzles | Genshin Impact 4.8 Guide

Shape of Valor

This will be the first Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzle you have to complete for the “Narration Footnotes” quest in Genshin Impact 4.8. The goal is for you to use the Oracle Pillars in the room to recreate a picture using the Magic Thread between them, as we described previously. It will instantly count as solved once the picture matches.

To make things easier for you, the image above shows the order in which you should activate the Oracle Pillars. Just follow along with the numbers in our pics and you’ll easily complete these puzzles in seconds!

Also remember, you can attack the clockwork key if you need to reset the puzzle!

Of course, we’ll also take you step by step just in case. The first pillar you should activate is the one that Kirara stands in front of.

Then, bring the Magic Thread to the pillar right in front of Albizzi.

Follow up by activating the pillar across from Boborano’s position.

Lastly, finish the Shape of Valor by activating the pillar closest to Boborano. You should now have completed the first of these puzzles, allowing you to proceed straight to the next one!

Shape of Wisdom

The second Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzle is pretty much the same mechanic as the previous one, and you can see the full solution above.

Now, taking it step by step, the first pillar you should activate is the one closest to Albizzi.

Next, activate the other elevated pillar near where Albizzi is.

Go back down the stairs and activate the central pillar on the right side of the puzzle. It’ll be the opposite of the central pillar that started this puzzle, on Boborano’s side.

Lastly, bring the Magic Thread to the final pillar near the lamppost. This will complete the Shape of Wisdom and this puzzle!

Shape of Empathy

This is the final of all 3 Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzles for the “Narration Footnotes” quest in Genshin Impact. It’s pretty simple, with the one gimmick being that part of the picture is obscured in-game. Nonetheless, you can see the solution easily in the image above!

However, as usual, we’ll take you step by step through the process. First, activate the pillar that’s smack dab between where Cappet and Kirara are.

Then, bring the Magic Thread to the pillar right next to Cappet’s location.

Continue by interacting with the pillar near the lamppost and wooden crate.

Lastly, touch the pillar in the middle of the square you’ve made with the other pillars. It’ll complete the Shape of Empathy, finishing this Oracle Pillar’s Picture puzzle and the “Narration Footnotes” quest! However, Simulanka’s Constellation Metropole still has a lot of puzzles for you to solve. For example, check out our guide on the “Message from a City Resident” puzzles!
