Infinity Nikki features numerous legendary creatures, some quest-related, others hidden throughout the game world. Examples include the Dawn Fox, Tulletail, Bullquet, and the Astral Swan.
Acquiring the Astral Feather from the Astral Swan is possible without the associated quest, "Soaring Above the Starry Sky," but the quest provides additional context.
Soaring Above the Starry Sky Quest in Infinity Nikki
To initiate this quest, locate the Stellar Fishing Ground Peak Warp Spire and interact with Curious Pinny. The quest begins by visiting Lensie's house (easily found using the in-game map tracker). Next, you must groom the Astral Swan, equip the Floral Gliding outfit, and fly with the swan.
After the flight, the quest continues with these steps:
- Return to Pinny and Lensie.
- Find Elron in Stoneville.
Grooming the Astral Swan in Infinity Nikki
Grooming the Astral Swan is simple: use the Bye-Bye Dust or a similar grooming Ability Outfit. This will also yield the Astral Feather material.
Equipping the Floral Gliding Outfit in Infinity Nikki
Equip the Floral Gliding Ability Outfit to enable flight. It's recommended to change to this complete outfit set from your wardrobe to avoid issues.
Flying with the Astral Swan in Infinity Nikki
Activate the Floral Gliding Outfit near the Astral Swan to trigger a cutscene. To successfully complete the flight, maintain proximity to the swan and avoid drifting too far.
During the flight, press the "Soar" button when prompted. Upon the swan's return, don't deactivate the Floral Gliding outfit until the Astral Swan has fully landed. Prematurely ending the flight will prevent quest progression. A successful flight will advance the quest to its next stage.
