Note: If you are playing a full support character, you must kill at least 1 monster by yourself to complete the quest due to a game limitation

Dungeon Entrance Warps

If you would like to enter Ashes Dungeon 1F or 2F during (or after finishing) the quest, use one of these portals:

• Entering portals to Ashes 1F and 2F are located in Mjonir 3F.
• Return portal from Ashes 2F to Mjonir 3F is located in north-west area of 2F Ashes map.

There is an NPC outside Dead Mine that will warp all characters on the Game Account to the Ashes maps once one of your characters has made enough progress in the questline.
