Guide to Reverting Strangelings

To revert a Strangeling back to their human form, players must perform a special ceremony at the Goddess Statue located in your Base Camp. This isn’t as straightforward as simply locating them; you are required to bring these transformed beings to the statue for her assistance.

Celestia, requires special flowers as tribute to assist with reverting Strangelings.

The Goddess demands a tribute of Celestia’s Gifts, which bloom throughout the vicinity of your Base Camp. The cost for each reversion ranges around 100 Celestia’s Gifts, but you may acquire skills that can help reduce these costs over time. Although these flowers are plentiful, they only regenerate once every real-world day, making efficient farming essential to maintain a steady supply!
