Synchronous Lotus is an incredibly useful resource in Nightingale and a near necessity for all realmwalkers. Players will only be able to craft Portals and Faerie Rings of their own with the aid of a Synchronous Lotus.

Player-made portals not only save you the trip from your base to the local Realm Portal but also allow you to set up a network of portals with multiple combinations of Realm Cards. Here is how to get the Synchronous Lotus to make it happen.

Where To Get Synchronous Lotus

Synchronous Lotus can only be obtained by completing a Fae Tower or a Fae Ruin. There is only one of each in any given Realm, which means, at most, you’ll only find two Synchronous Lotus in a single Realm.

Fae Towers

Fae Towers should be your first stop every time you visit a new Realm. Whenever you step through the portal to an unexplored Realm, you’ll be met with an empty map with no map markers to show the Points of Interest. The only location you’ll find marked on the map is the local Fae Tower.

Clearing the Fae Tower reveals everything notable on the map. This includes Bastilles of Intellect, Insight, and Agility, as well as Defense, Aid, and Occupation missions. To clear a Fae Tower, you’ll have to enter it from the main door, solve the puzzles or defeat the enemies inside, collect the hope echoes, and make your way to the top of the tower. At the top, you’ll find the Realmic Transmuter, where you can play Minor Realm Cards, another Hope Echo, and a chest. Inside the chest will be a single Synchronous Lotus.

Fae Ruins

After you’ve completed the Fae Tower, the map will be populated with multiple Points of Interest. Fae Ruins are typically underground and are marked on the map as ‘Fae Portal’. A quick way to identify the Fae Ruin is to look for a ‘Fae Portal’ next to an ‘Occupation’ mission. Fae Portals serve as an entrance to Fae Ruins and are typically protected by Bound enemies.

Active the Fae Portal to enter the Fae Ruins. The Ruins will be divided into rooms, and you’ll need to complete the puzzle in each room to unlock the next one. These can be anything from Bastille puzzles to Defence missions. In the last room, you’ll find the portal leading back to the main realm, as well as a chest. There will be a single Synchronous Lotus in the chest.

Nightingale has tons of mechanics that go unexplained in the game but are incredibly useful for players to know about. If you’re interested in learning more about the game, you might find our how to use augments and how to move structures guides helpful.
