Brilliant Failure Side Story Full Walkthrough and Details | Where Winds Meet

You see Er Mengzi crying over a goose. What could have happened?

Quest condition:

On a sunny weather, go to the docks and swim at You hour.

[1] Talk to Er Mengzi.
He tells you about Elder Yang, an inventor, who made a metal wing for his goose who was born with weak wings. Getting bullied for having weak wings, his little goose used the blade wing on the flock for revenge. And then his little goose dove into the river and the metal wing took it to the bottom.

When Er Mengzi confronted the inventor, he was only given an IOU.

[2] Go to the scholar who crafted the metal wing.
Along the way, you meet:
・Veteran Hero
・Tree Farmer
They both had experience with Yang's inventions…

[3] Persuade the scholar.
Time for a Gift of Gab with Elder Yang. After persuading him, he asks that you become his assistant for his experiment that he has been preparing for 10 years. Seeing how important it is, you agreed.

[4] Leave the place.
As you leave, Yang Ming, Elder Yang's disciple, calls out. He tells you the experiment for tomorrow is dangerous. He wants you to stop Elder Yang.

[5] Return at Shen hour the next day.
You can adjust the time or wait.

[6] Talk to Elder Yang.
You try to stop him, but he tells you that the musket experiment is important.

He tells you that 20 years ago, the Shi clan caused the fall of the people of Yan. 15 years ago, brave warrior protected Northern Vow against invaders. 3 years ago, the Emperor Shizong conquered 3 passes and 3 regions but stopped at the gate of the Yanyun lands. From these, he thought that he should forge a weapon that keeps the protectors from harm.

He forged iron that "allows the musket to sustain more power and fire continuously." He made a device that "reloads the musket automatically."

Trying it out, Elder Yang flew up and fell…

[7] Find Elder Yang…
When you find him, he's more concerned about taking notes of possible mistakes. He tells you that he has been called a failure many times. He tells you, "At the very least, I should write down the mistakes I've made and confirmed. That way, those who come after me might avoid them."

[8] Talk to Yang Ming.
He tells you that Elder Yang is fine. (Yay!)

Note: Talk to Yang Ming immediately because if you don't, the quest will immediately be completed, and you can't confirm that Elder Yang is alive.
