How To Get Collei
Many players will primarily be wondering how far they’ll have to play into the Graven Innocence event until they can receive Collei. Thankfully, players can receive her for free very shortly into the event, though the entire thing is worth playing for the extra rewards of Primogems and rare materials.
The Unappreciated Carving Quest
To begin The Unappreciated Carving quest that will allow players to get a free Collei, head to Port Ormos in the south of Sumeru. Once there, players need to make their way to Acara Crafts in thehigher levels of Port Ormos— it should be marked with a little store marker on the map when zooming in on the Port. Once players get close to the shop, a cutscene will start, so keep looking.

The craftsmen working at Acara Crafts will share the difficulties they’ve been having making a toy that children will like. The toy they’re trying to make is based on cute fictional characters from a very popular children’s book series, but many of the kids around the Port say that the toy is nothing like the characters from the novels they enjoy so much. To try and gain a better understanding of the character they’re using as a model, the two craftsmen will ask the Traveler and Paimon to travel backto the rainforesttogether to find the author, Tanger, and ask him for notes on his writing.
After this cutscene, travel toGandharva Ville near Avidya Forestto find Tanger. Another cutscene will begin, and they’ll stumble across Collei helping a lost little boy, Razi, who ended up lost near Gandharva Ville. Razi is actually the son of the famous author Tanger; once Collei learns who he’s looking for, she agrees to help the Traveler locate his father. After this cutscene, the player will receive Collei for free.
Graven Innocence Quests
The Graven Innocence event will continue after the playergains Collei for free, including The Unappreciated Carving mini-quest. To complete the rest of The Unappreciated Carving, follow Razi to find Tanger. After finding Tanger, speak to him and help him discover the Aranara’s Trail. From here, there are only a few more things for the player to do — mostlyspeaking to Tanger, Razi, and Collei.As long as the Traveler follows the quest markers they’re given, they should be fine.
There are also several mini-events in the overarching Graven Innocent event itself that players should complete for Primogems andbrand new Sumeru materials. These mini-events includeMetamorphosis of Wood, Meticulous Craftsmanship, and Roaming the Jungle.Each of these will allow the player to gain event-limited materials that they can exchange in the event shop for a ton of different things, so it’s highly recommended to take part.
Meticulous Craftsmanship
For this part of the event, the player must complete theSelling Like Hot Carvingsmini-quest that follows The Unappreciated Carving quest which players received Collei. All that is required from this is for the player toreturn to Port Ormosto check back in with the owners of the store they initially met. Once the player gives feedback to the craftsmen who had sent them to find Razi and Tanger, they will receive Primogems, and this mini-event will be complete.

Roaming the Jungle
This part of the event has several smaller mini-games, as follows:
By taking part in these assorted mini-games, the player will win themselves different event items that can be exchanged in the event shop, as well as materials that can be used to craft their own statues inMetamorphosis of Wood.
Metamorphosis of Wood
In Metamorphosis of Wood, the player can assemble their own Aranara carvings back at the store in Port Ormos. This is similar to priorGenshin Impactevents, particularly the snowman building event in Version 2.3. To get the materials needed to craft their own Aranara statues, players must first take part in Roaming the Jungle.
