The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails 100% Guide

Writing a guide for The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails was a bit weird since it’s not your traditional Trails adventure.

So, I decided that instead of doing an exhaustive breakdown of each stage, which would be pretty needless, highlighting the collectibles I found difficult to obtain, the sidequests, Mishy locations, and other more specific content would make this guide compact and digestible. The majority of the collectibles you’ll find are self-explanatory, not requiring guide-written directions.

Here are some general notes to keep in mind while you play:

• Make sure to adopt Nora as soon as possible and talk to her after every stage for free collectibles.
• I made some mentions of stages that you should revisit after you get new movement abilities, but just keep this metroidvania element in mind.
• Make sure to cook most dishes at least once to unlock more lunchbox slots.
  • You can cook dishes from the main menu.
  • Ingredient locations are told to you via the main menu, assuming you’ve collected what you need to find at least once.
• Every stage, sans the few bigger ones, has three crystals, one chest, and one mission to complete, alongside a special item granted once you clear the stage after achieving everything in it.
• The main menu has an in-game achievement tracker you should take note of, as it updates in real time.
• Sidequests are usually obtained via Nayuta’s mailbox unless stated otherwise.

If there is anything egregiously erroneous or absent from this guide, please inform me so I can correct it. 

This guide has some spacing that may look off, but I mainly wanted to avoid jumbling non-matching information together.

Thanks to the guide of this game’s PSP version by Masked_Lenheim, as I used it to track the numeric values needed for Museum gifts, though I missed a few inconsequential ones.

• In case you missed it, check out our review for The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails.

Prologue

You’ll eventually get your first two (mandatory) sidequests when you gain control.

First, though, visit the graves of Nayuta’s parents by exiting north from the town and interacting with the dog there.

Afterward, on the left side of town, just before the screen transition, walk to the gap between the wall and the leftmost house to spot Mishy. He’ll be at hidden spots throughout the game, and finding him each time will eventually culminate in an achievement.

Lunchbox Support Request

Speak to Dorado near the center of the town’s intersection. Head to Eartha at Nayuta’s place and then learn about the cooking mechanic. Report back to Dorado to conclude the quest. You’ll get 50 Mira.

Swordsman Training

Speak to Master Orbus by exiting to the left of the town and do the combat tutorial.

 

A bunch of story progress, and your first stage will occur, with more story afterward.

Chapter 1

After clearing the first stage, Sunshade Trail – Spring, you can head back to Remnant Isle for sidequests via the mailbox.

Head to the south side of town that has the port and head to the far right, where you’ll spot Mishy for the second time, with him now behind a wooden post.

Bell’s Challenge

Speak to Bell in the house on the right side of the port. Walk up the stairs of the Sunset General Store to find the first note. Nayuta’s telescope at his place has the second note. Talk to Dorado in the center of town for a note. Lastly, exit town to the west and examine the boat near Master Orbus. You’ll gain the Chewy Bone as a reward.

 

You can get the Star Frag. (Floral Bounty) by speaking to Aquela to the far south of town at the docks.

Head to the new museum on the town’s south side. You can donate collectibles here at fixed intervals for Mira.

Gift of Gratitude

Speak to Sculp outside the house just south of the Sunset General Store. Then speak to Sasha in the nearby general store. Nayuta realizes a stage may hold the objective.

 

Before leaving Remnant Isle, you can buy notable items from Sasha. I recommend buying the Hair Clip for its increased collectible drop rate. Remember to buy the Dog House as soon as you’re able. When you do, go to the dog north of town and then interact with it repeatedly to gain collectibles for the museum. The chewy bone will give you additional items.

Giving Nora a gift or completing a stage will enable her to give you museum items whenever you interact with her, so be sure to always do that.

Also, don’t forget to talk to Orbus when making numeric strides in the combat notebook for new techniques.

 

The Eternal Rose needed for the Gift of Gratitude quest will be found in the Sacred Wind – Spring stage. A Jewel Tomato and 100 Mira will be given by Sculp when you report back to him.

Keep progressing until you beat the first boss, concluding Chapter 1. You need to get the first skill from Orbus to be able to fight this boss, which allows you to swing in the air.

Chapter 2

When back on Remnant Isle, head up north from the town and down the stairs to find Mishy for the third time, sitting as far back as you can walk, right near the stairs.

After you gain access to the Astrolabe, head to Remnant Isle for side stuff.

Go to the Stargzer’s Tavern & Inn, and go into the second room on the second floor to speak to Dr. Hydel to trigger the hidden Helping with Checkups quest.

Head to the south of town at the docks and go to the right house to speak to Carina. Speak to Mrs. Janis in the elder’s house on the far left house of the town. Talk to Kenni in the center house of town that has the cow near it. Go to the Sunset General Store and speak to Sasha four times (remember to talk with the quest button) to complete the quest. You’ll get the Flying Machine Model as a reward.

Supreme Fruit Wine

Speak to Ada at the Meteor Workshop, then head to the Stargazer’s Tavern & Inn and speak to Merchant Antlia to obtain the Century Peach Sapling, which we’ll grow on Terra.

Go to Altapea and play the first stage’s Spring theme, Sunshade Trail – Spring. The planting spot for the sapling is right where the third dark crystal is at the dead end. Finish the stage, then change the season to Summer, and reach the same spot you were just at in Sunshade Trail – Summer. Ensure you’re properly equipped because the enemies will be considerably stronger. Deliver the peach to Ada to receive 600 Mira.

Giving the museum 16 unique items will give you the Glasses head part for Noi.

You’ll get the Summer Art Cyclone for Noi by defeating the Storm Parrot enemies in Lakeshore Forest – Summer stage in Altapea.

Giving Orbus 12 seals from the combat notebook will award the Downward Thrust.

In the Sacred Way – Summer stage in Altapea, Noi will get the Gear Buster skill naturally. This will let you break hard objects. You can replay stages that had barriers in place that you can now pass.

 

After getting the Gear Buster skill, head back to Remnant Isle.

Searching for Island Specialties

Go back to Terra and enter the Temple–Sanctum at the end of Altapea. Talk to Gio and head back to Remnant Isle. Speak to Chief Serpens in his house at the far left of town to get Dried Squid. Speak to Columba in the Meteor Workshop to get the Isle Loco Moco. Lastly, go to where Orbus usually resides, out the western exit of the town, and examine the water just south of him [screenshot] to get Ruins Rock Salt. Report back to Gio for Noi to get the Summer Art Sol Erase.

Fruitful Soil can be found in the Lakeshore Forest – Summer stage in a chest behind a tree stump that can be broken with the Gear Buster. Give it to Sculp in the inn in Remnant Isle. This will make new vegetables purchasable from the Sunset General Store.

Sunshade Trail – Summer, Sacred Way – Spring, Sunshade Trail – Spring, and Temple of Altea are able to be fully completed at this point.

With the Gear Buster, you can do everything possible in Lakeshore Forest – Summer.

With the Gear Buster, you can destroy a breakable tree stump near the end of Lakeshore Forest – Spring that has a Star Frag. (Sea Blue) in a chest, letting you fully complete the stage.

Sacred Way – Summer has an optional block puzzle at the start that leads to a crystal. First, push the bottom block left. Stand atop it, then push the middle block right. Don’t move, and push the block next to you to the right. Drop down, and push the leftmost block to the right in the one-space gap between the line of blocks you formed and where you’re trying to place a block on top of.  You can’t get the second crystal here yet.

So, every stage in Altapea can be fully completed now sans Sacred Way – Summer.

 

Giving 24 unique items to the Museum will give you the Shimeji, Huge Potato, Rock Salt, and Crystal Rock Salt.

Talking to Orbus after achieving 18 combat marks will give One-Handed Swords I, enabling five hit combos with those weapons.

 

You can start Rieseweld now.

You can buy the Elastic Ball from Sasha’s general store as a gift for Nora.

Defeating the required Bullet Pop enemies in the Harmonious Cavern – Summer will give the Summer Art Bullet Bee to Noi. You can fully complete this stage right away.

Going to Orbus with 24 combat marks will give you the Guard ability.

You can’t fully complete Dragon River Cave – Summer yet.

You can fully complete the Temple of Reiseweld. The second chest here is a bit tricky. Far in the second half of the stage, you’ll hit a switch that lowers the water level, be sure to head right instead of continuing left to find the chest.

 

Giving 32 unique items to the museum will give you the Wooden Disc. This is a gift for Nora.

Giving Orbus 30 combat seals will give you the Mid-Air Dodge.

You can finish the Reiseweld and complete Chapter 2.

 

Chapter 3

When you can walk around, go to the terrace of the Sunset General Store to find Mishy for the fourth time, hiding near the roof.

Note that Lyra will take over the cooking.

When you have access to Terra again, you can get the Procuring Pigments quest from Remnant Isle. But we’ll do that later.

Do Harmonious Cavern – Winter in Rieseweld first. You will naturally get Gear Hold here, allowing you to hold onto the floating gears you’ve been seeing. The chest in this area has White Ore, used for adding new weapon shop items. You can also fully complete this stage right away.

Head back to Remnant Isle and head to the Meteor Workshop to give the White Ore for new equipment. There are two quests in the mailbox, too.

Giving 40 unique items to the museum will give you the Floral Herb, Jord Egg, Tear Onion, and Golden Herb.

 

Recovering Extinct Species (Text also calls It Back From the Brink, so I don’t know what the actual name is).

Go to the Temple – Sanctum of Rieseweld and speak to Songstress Erislette. Go to the Dragon River Cave – Winter stage in Riesweld and examine the spot Nayuta takes note of after you hit a switch. Defeating the Ice Werg enemy here will give Noi the Winter Art Frost Wave. You can fully complete this stage too.

Re-enter this stage in its Summer iteration, and go to where you placed the eggs in the Winter iteration, which you’ll have to swim toward. You can now get the first crystal here thanks to the Gear Hold ability and fully complete the stage, too.

 

Report back to Erislette to receive the Winter Art White Nova.

You can fully complete The Great Cave – Winter now.

Getting 36 combat seals will let Orbus teach you the Radiant Technique, Meteor Blow.

You can fully complete Sacred Way – Summer back in Altapea now, too, letting you fully complete that entire area. I also had 42 combat seals at this point, letting Orbus gift Nayuta the Warrior’s Armor.

You should now be completely done with both seasons’ stages in Altapea and Rieseweld.

You should start the Hienmel area now. The third stage will have what you need for the Procuring Pigments quest.

You can fully clear the Windswept Valley – Winter stage.

The Star Frag. (Incandescence) is found in a chest in the Dragon’s Graveyard – Winter stage. Defeating the Ghiacco enemies here will give Noi the Winter Art Icicle Spear. You can also completely finish this stage.

Going to Orbus after 48 combat seals will give you the Wind Sickle Sword Technique.

Giving 48 unique items to the museum will give you the Ribbon for Noi.

 

Procuring Pigments

Speak to Pyxia in the center of town.

Go to the third stage of Heinmel, Sky-Peircing Mountain – Winter. The three pigments you need will be found on the walls here, in the order of Red, Yellow, then Blue. The chest of this area is right next to the Blue pigment, by the way. You can’t fully complete this stage yet.

Report back to Pyxia to get the Silver Bracelet.

 

You can fully complete Temple of Heinmel (Hidden Heights – Winter isn’t a stage.)

Giving 56 unique items at the museum will give you Solar Beans, Soy Beans, Orum Clam, and Gnome Jelly.

You can beat the boss of Hienmel and view the following scenes to finish Chapter 3.

 

Chapter 4

When you first gain control, a sidequest is available.

AWOL Offspring

Speak to Baron Victor upstairs in the Stargazer’s Tavern & Inn, then Ada in the Meteor Workshop. Then talk to Captain Puppis at the far south edge of town at the docks. At the entrance of the docks, Aquela will be standing, so talk to her; you’ll need to spend 2,000 Mira. Lastly, go to the entrance of the Garden in Terra to finish the quest. You’ll receive the Star Frag. (Great Echoes) and 6,000 Mira.

 

Mishy will be located to the left of the outside of the museum’s entrance.

Go to Heinmel and enter its third stage’s Autumn variation, Sky-Piercing Mountain – Autumn. Noi will naturally get the Gear Shield, enabling you to defend against enemy attacks and terrain hazards. The third crystal here can be easily missed. Shortly before this stage’s chest, there are two small platforms you can jump atop with the Gear Shield. You can fully complete this stage, too.

 

You can go back to Sky-Piercing Mountain – Winter in Hamniel to get the second crystal now and fully clear the stage.

Going to Orbus after 54 combat seals will give you an upgraded CHAIN bonus to 60.

The Autumn Cocoon will be found in the Windswept Valley – Autumn stage’s chest. You can give this to Sasha to increase her wares. You can’t fully clear this stage yet.

In Dragon’s Graveyard – Autumn, defeating the Venom Skunk enemies will give Noi the Autumn Art Venom Mist. You can also fully complete this stage.

Going to Orbus after 60 combat seals will upgrade your Arts Charge.

After completing that previous stage, I got a new quest called Restoration of Lost Power.

 

Restoration of Lost Power

Go to the Temple – Sanctum in Heinmel and speak to Guardian King Argol. You’ll need to head to the first stage of La Worg to do his quest. Speaking of, you can now head off and start that continent.

 

In the Ancient Reefs – Autumn, the chest here contains a capacity upgrade for Noi’s Arts. Additionally, before the metal bridge, use Gear Shield to cross the lava to get the second and third crystals. The second crystal is also where Argol’s first requested fragment is. You can also fully complete this stage.

Defeating the Brigantine enemy in Resonant Falls – Autumn will give Noi the Autumn Art Maple Wind. The chest here is right at the end in the pool of lava to the south. Mira crystals hint at it. You can also fully complete this stage.

 

Going to Orbus after 66 combat seals will give you the Demon’s Mask.

 

The second fragment of Argol’s power is in Hell’s Gate – Autumn, near the end across a series of narrow platforms. It’s located atop a bone platform. The chest is right to the left of this, too. You can also fully complete this stage.

After several scenes, you’ll be able to do Temple of La Worg. In here, the second half of the stage, where you make the initial right at the first fork, you’ll find Argol’s last fragment of power atop a series of blocks. You can’t yet fully complete this stage as the second chest is out of reach.

Go to Argol at the Temple – Sanctum in Heinmel to conclude the Restoration of Lost Power quest. Noi will get the Autumn Art Grand Terror.

 

Giving Orbus 72 combat seals will give you the Knowledge of Two-Handed Blades 1.

Giving 64 unique items to the museum will give you the Witch’s Hat.

You can defeat the boss of La Worg now. Progress with the story until Chapter 4 is complete.

 

Chapter 5

Exist west of town; Mishy is hidden behind a pillar to the southeast of where Orbus is standing. He’s hard to see.

When you gain access to Terra again, enter the Helliograd – Lower Level, then leave soon after.

Go to La Worg and do Ancient Reefs – Spring, where Noi will gain Gear Drive, enabling high-speed traversal and the capability to run up walls. You can get the chest in this stage back to before the metal bridge area, on the right wall with the grooves. You’ll be able to fully clear this stage.

You can go back to the second half of the Temple of La Worg and head east using Gear Drive for the second chest, fully completing the stage.

Go back to Remnant Isle for a new sidequest.

The Spirits’ Whereabouts

Go to the Temple – Sanctum in La Worg and speak to Sage Nemeas. Then speak to Lychnis Geo in Altapea’s Temple, Erislette in Rieseweld’s Temple, and Argol in Heinmel’s Temple.

Go to Windswept Valley – Autumn in Heinmel and use Gear Drive on the wall with the grooves a little bit into the stage; it’s very noticeable. The spirit will be here, as well as the second crystal, allowing you to fully clear the stage.

Go to Harmonious Cavern – Winter in Rieseweld and head a good ways into the stage until the mandatory fight against three knight enemies. Afterward, move forward a bit and head as north as you can to find the spirit.

Go to Sacred Way – Summer in Altapea and just keep heading southeast. The spirit will be in the middle of the swamp mud, where you had to use Gear Hold for the second crystal.

Report back to Nemeas in the Temple – Sanctum of La Worg for Noi to get the Spring Art Gospel Bloom.

 

You can fully complete the Resonant Faults – Spring stage in La Worg. Defeating the Bloomenes enemies will give Noi the Spring Art Flower Dance. Warning, they’re tough.

 

Giving Orbus 78 combat seals will give you the Radiant Technique, Space Slash.

You can fully complete Hell’s Gate Spring now.

 

You can go do Helliograd – Lower when you’re ready. This one can be confusing to get everything in.

Before hitting the third cube, the first crystal is to your left. After hitting the seventh cube, backtrack a slight bit to where you fought the four required enemies (two were knights) and platform west for the second crystal.

After hitting the ninth cube, backtrack to where the previous cube was and platform east for the chest. After hitting the tenth crystal, backtrack to where required enemies previously spawned (just head down the platforms and go north as soon as you can) for a brief new path housing the third crystal.

 

Going to Orbus with 84 combat seals will give you Knowledge of One-Handed Swords 2.

 

You can do Helliograd – Middle Level next. Note that you can fall through the glowing rails if you don’t use Gear Drive, one of which leads to the first crystal. After hitting the cube that’s after the second crystal, head as far west as you can to reach a glowing rail you can use Gear Drive on to reach the chest.

 

You can give 90 combat seals to Orbus to get the Crimson Sword.

You can do Helliograd – Upper Level when you can. You’ll eventually end Chapter 5 from here.

Chapter 6

Mishy is located behind Nayuta’s house, where the sheep are.

After several story scenes and a fight, you’ll get a sidequest.

Developing a New Dish

Speak to Gruz in the Stargazer’s Tavern & Inn. You need to give him Three Fresh Red Meat, Five Bone-In Rigid Meat, and 2 Orum Clams.  The lattermost is rare; just go to the first half of the Temple of La Worg and go a bit ways into it to the sapling that spawns ingredients. Orum Clams appear from this. Give Gruz the ingredients, and you’ll get the Guide to Fine Cuisine 3, 2 Gelatinous Things, and a Gnome Jelly.

 

You can progress with Lexendria when you’re ready.

Tip: Gear Drive can be used to gain momentum from springs.

Crimson Ore is found in Under Chasms City Sector II, and you can defeat the Expatreon enemies here to get the Spring Art Tri-Blossom for Noi. You can also fully complete this stage.

Speak to Professor Volans at the Museum.

• Go to City Sector 1 in Lexendria, and go far into the stage until just after the linear spike wall traps. Head south and examine the first slate.

• In City Sector 3, go right as soon as the stage starts, and you’ll see the slate.

Report back to Volans to get 15,000 Mira.

 

In Stelarium, Cradle Sector 1^st Half, the light bridge switch on the second level near the beginning spawns a third bridge to the south that isn’t explicitly shown, and you may run past by accident. The first crystal is here. The first chest here contains a Silver Cocoon.

Exit the inn and then fast travel to the Temple – Sanctum in Altapea and talk to Gio. Enter Windswept Valley – Summer and examine the small tree in a platform in the middle of the swamp.

 

Report back to Norma to get the Aquamarine.

Giving x unique items to the Museum will give you the Glossy Eggplant. Swallow Nest, Boatman Turnip, and Mandragora.

Do the Summer stages of Heinmel.

 

Stela Cocoon is in the chest of Dragon’s Graveyard – Summer. For the chest, you’ll have to traverse a poisonous swamp with the shield on, right as you see the third crystal at the top of the screen. Defeating the Maleficus monsters of this stage will give Noi the Summer Art Thorn Circle. For the third crystal, use the Gear ability to roll up the wall nearby.

 

Going to Orbus with 168 combat seals to get Knowledge of Two-Handed Blades 3.

Bring the Stela Cocoon to Sasha.

 

In the Sky-Piercing Mountain – Summer stage, the chest is right past the exit.

Clearing every Summer stage in Heinmel will give more Astrolabe bonuses, particularly increased drop rate, exp, and movement speed, as well as infinite Gear Drive and Shield.

 

In Chapter 5, you can do the Winter stages for La Worg.

You’ll have two new sidequests.

Where is the Heir?

Head to the Stargazer’s Tavern & Inn and speak to Mrs. Mensa. Talk to Mishy at the beach where Orbus is; he’s hidden behind the pillar to the far right. Exit to the north of town to the cape and talk to Mishy at the far right of the area near the water and graves.

Examine the Astrolabe in Terra and go to Ancient Reeds – Winter in La Worg. For the second crystal here, jump onto the slight gap of the available eastern wall after turning back from the first crystal. Open the chest near the end of the stage where the Administrator was formerly imprisoned. Report back to Mrs. Mensa to receive a Pink Diamond.

 

The Origin Spirit’s Request

Speak to the Spirit at the start of the Temple – Entrance in La Worg for another monster.

 

Going to Orbus with 174 combat seals will give you the Radiant Technique, Falling Petals.

Defeat the Serpentaire in Resonant Faults Winter for Noi to get the Winter Art Blizzard. This should be Noi’s final Art.

Giving 128 unique items to the museum will give you the Headdress and the First-Class Collector achievement.

Chest in Hell’s Gate Winter in La Worg gives Star Frag. (Starlight). The puzzle to reach this has very transparent directions on the sign. This is the final new stage in the game.

 

You’ll unlock more Astrolabe bonuses for doing this, notably higher level limits.

Reporting to Orbus one final time with 180 combat seals will give you the Sword of the Cosmos.

You should also have every Star Fragment now, so examine them all in the Septluxian Scope in Nayuta’s room for an achievement.

 

Emerald, Angel Statue, and Silver Armor: Body are only from Nora.

You should be able to take care of all four Spirit Requests now. The quest descriptions tell you exactly which stages and Seasons they appear. If you’re underprepared, cook some Demon Hot Pots to gain more levels. Winning against each boss will give you Zemurian Ore. Talk to Columba in the Meteor Workshop once you have all four.

With that, you should be good to go.
