Burn Down the Contaminated Branch | “The World Tree and Red Fog” Quest Guide
You’ll get the objective to burn the Contaminated Branch shortly after you reach the World’s Tree Heart and meet Aramo as part of the quest.

- Memory of Joy – Switches between day and night time.
- Memory of Sorrow – Changes the weather between clear and rainy.
With that in mind, you want to use both orbs so that it’s daytime and it isn’t rainy. This will allow you to reach the Twilight Tree and obtain its flame. If you’re right in front of Aramo, the Twilight Tree is in front of you and to the left, as shown above.
Simply approach the flaming tree and interact with it to obtain the Twilight Flame.
Then, turn around and go back to the main islet you were on before. You should instantly notice the Contaminated Branch to your left, covered in a dark red fog. Interact with it and use the Twilight Flame to burn it all down!
That’s all there is to it! You now know how to burn down the Contaminated Branch so that you can continue Chapter 12: The World Tree and Red Fog in Throne & Liberty.
