Infinity Nikki boasts a plethora of legendary creatures, some accessible through quests, others cleverly hidden, demanding thorough exploration. The Dawn Fox, Tulletail, Bullquet, and Astral Swan are prime examples.
Acquiring the Astral Swan's feather is achievable even without the associated quest, but the quest enhances understanding of the creature. This quest is titled "Soaring Above the Starry Sky."
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 nearby. The quest first directs you to 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 it.
Following the flight, complete these steps:
Grooming the Astral Swan in Infinity Nikki
Grooming is simple: use the Bye-Bye Dust or a similar grooming Ability Outfit on the Astral Swan. This action also rewards you with an Astral Feather.
Equipping the Floral Gliding Outfit in Infinity Nikki
Next, equip the Floral Gliding Ability Outfit to enable flight. For optimal results, change to this outfit set from your wardrobe.
Flying with the Astral Swan in Infinity Nikki
Activate the Floral Gliding Outfit near the Astral Swan to initiate a cutscene. To successfully complete the flight, maintain proximity to the Swan; avoid drifting too far.
Mid-flight, a "Soar" button appears – be sure to press it. At the flight's conclusion, do not deactivate the Floral Gliding outfit until the Astral Swan has fully landed. Prematurely ending the flight prevents quest progression. A successful flight advances the quest to the next stage.
