Full walkthrough of An Ark That Used to Be a Soul - the Snezhnaya world quest that splits into three search quests for the Eye of Graeae's missing parts, plus the finale chapter. This video is quest-focused: no chests and no puzzle detours, just the story walkthrough (it's long enough in itself; separate map exploration video is planned to be recorded a little later).

The whole quest chain is sadly unvoiced :(

I had an unreasonable amount of fun with the shooter sections, and not because the gunplay is good (it is a pain on mobile). It's that at a certain point somewhere in the village I stopped playing Genshin and started playing Resident Evil on my phone. 10/10 experience, the only reason I would justify making these beautiful locations locked behind a shooter mechanics.

This is permanent content available for new players anytime.

7.1 update: two more edge of survival stages added - Fiery Feather Pursuit and Ice-Imprisoned Citadel - both unlocked during this world quest chain but not shown in the video (because the walkthrough is recorded during 7.0 version).
For those of us who cleared the quest in 7.0 both stages were automatically added to the shooting range after 7.1 update went live.
