TL;DR — 5 Steps

  1. Teleport to Wertheimer TowerFollow the Anomagram tracking line. The commission marker leads you to a small house on a porch north of Northridge Town in the Miguel District.
  2. Step through the colourful vortexThe porch hosts a vibrant whirling portal. Entering pulls you into the colourless realm where the puzzle begins.
  3. Restore the 5 colours IN ORDERFire hydrant → surfboard → pool floatie → scoreboard → podium. Out-of-order interactions are not accepted.
  4. Kill the Inspiration TerminatorsAfter each colour is restored, fly swarms (the Inspiration Terminator enemy) spawn to interrupt. Clear them before triggering the next colour.
  5. Use the black portal to exitOnce all five are coloured and the last wave is cleared, a black exit portal opens. Stepping through finalises the commission and drops Mind Royale.

The 5-Colour Sequence (Strict Order)

Each prop must be restored in the exact order below. After every interaction, Inspiration Terminator flies spawn to interrupt — kill them and proceed to the next target.

  1. Fire hydrantFirst colour. Easy starting point — the hydrant sits in plain sight at the entry to the colourless realm.
  2. SurfboardRestored second. Don't skip the hydrant trying to find it first; the prompt won't trigger out of order.
  3. Pool floatieThird colour. Insect spawns intensify around this prop — clear them quickly to keep moving.
  4. ScoreboardFourth. The Inspiration Terminator swarms try to perch on the prop to block the interaction — kill them first, then trigger.
  5. PodiumFinal colour. Once restored, the realm transitions and the black exit portal opens at the centre.

After podium: a black portal opens at the centre of the realm. Step through to finalise the commission and add Mind Royale to your inventory.

Pro Tips & Common Pitfalls

  • Order matters. The Inspiration Terminators land on the next prop in the sequence and try to perch on it. They will keep flying back even if you kill them — the game's hint is that they always cluster near the correct next target.
  • If you don't see the prompt on a prop, you're trying the wrong one. Check whether the previous prop in the sequence is properly restored — sometimes the colour animation lags and the trigger is half-applied.
  • Bio anomalies are weak to AoE. Bring a sub-DPS with circle or sweep attacks (Hathor, Sakiri) to clear the fly swarms in one cast instead of single-target burst.
  • This commission and Reclaim Inspiration both drop Mind Royale. If you only need one copy, pick whichever district you're already in. If you're farming refinement, alternate them — both have their own per-run loot tables.
