🧩 How to handle quests not appearing + How to use Rewind

Guide to solving the most common player issues in the game Sword of Justice

1. Check first: 5 reasons why quests don't trigger

① Weekly quota limit reached Quests Adventure have a limit of approximately Minor Fortune 15 times/week and Good Fortune 12 times/week, once reached, quests will not appear until the weekly reset
② In Rewind status While in Rewind, real-world quests will not trigger, must return to the real world first
③ Have not met the quest prerequisites Many quests require completing other quests first, and some require waiting for the next day, such as [[Strange Affair of the Obsessed]] which requires finishing [[Shadows of Yesterday]] and waiting for the following day
④ NPC appears only during certain times in the game For example, during [[Chen Time-Si Hour]] (approximately 07:00-11:00 in-game time)
⑤ Line server bug Try running around the area, use the crouch or change line servers, then try again

2. How to use the Rewind step-by-step system

Rewind is a system to replay Story to choose different options and unlock uncompleted ending scenes, you need to complete quests Jade Pendant Past Finish before unlocking this system

  1. OpenQuest log From the left menu
  2. Switch to the tab “All quests” At the bottom left corner
  3. Press Story to go back to the one you want to seeMap Story
  4. Read the map: Solid boxes = paths you have chosen Faint Book options are unchosen branches. The percentage numbers represent the proportion of all players on the server who chose that option.
  5. Tap to select a node before reaching a fork If you want to go back Select any node on the map Then restart from there, no need to start the whole chapter over
  6. Press the button "Rewind" Go to the top-right corner and replay the scene; options will appear during dialogue.
  7. Play through to the end of the scene. A pop-up box will ask: "The mission to restore the past [chapter name] is complete. Do you want to apply this restoration data to the current timeline immediately?"
  8. 🔴 Simply finishing the scene isn't enough; you must go to the save game screen to apply it. (See the steps in the red box below)
  9. Exit the status Rewind and return to the real world. Before accepting the next quest
🔴 Trap that causes “unlocking the ending scene but the quest doesn’t pop up”
The box that appears after finishing the game has buttons Cancel, Continue, Rewind in the pastPressing “Continue” doesn’t actually use the real data (Tested on Thai game servers, the ending scene reverts to the original)
The actual working method involves 5 steps: Open the page Quest > Press Save Game Top right corner > Select the row with the sign Dream rewind in progress > Press Rewind In the past Bottom > Press Confirm
When done, the ending box on the map will change toShining gold = In use (Blue = Unlocked but not used yet)
The system Rewind is "multiple save slots" not just for replaying Each round is saved as a separate slot, limited to 10 slots And you must overwrite data yourself to affect the real world. Rows ending with (original Story data) are the data the game is using now. Button Collect temporarily Store without stacking. Press 🗑 to delete, and it will be gone forever in that run
Apply Can be done simultaneously on multiple quests (One per quest) Not choosing multiple throughout the game. Rewind Does not give duplicate rewards The game itself states “Playing Story again will not earn rewards for this quest”
Confirmed to work ✓ The website owner uses Rewind to correct wrong quest choices Elephant of Peace Completed already, this system allows you to fix missed options
Press button Rewind not working? If that day you just completed that quest, you can't repeat it, use an itemFloral Branch from your inventory, then wait until the next day
The trap with the most people stuck: map StoryCan't directly change branches? It's a read-only page, you must press button Rewind to start a new scene.
🔒 Locked options with a key icon cannot be pressed, because "not prepared to enter the scene yet."
The game will only unlock advantageous options for those whoexplore and Listen in thoroughly before entering scene Story. For example, if you investigate beforehand and learn the enemy's weakness, you'll have options that make you win faster both in battle and in debate. If you don't investigate, those options will be locked.
Solution: Before entering important scenes, always explore thoroughly first. and when you encounter a key read the line under that option. The game states clearly what conditions are required.
What do you explore and find?, real example
ExplorationFan Pavilion In chapter 3, you get 3 things at once: knowing that someone plans to act against Fang Chengyi triggers quest Adventure from mother Gao Dasheng and opens the scene Li Shishi Dance
Technique that works throughout the game: OpenIntuition If you seeFootprint strange follow the trail, there are rewards at the end

3. Rewind If the quest options are not showing, check these 3 points

3.1 Is the quest divided into multiple parts?

Some quest sets are divided into beginning/end parts, andimportant choices are usually in the end part The clearest example is the quest Elephant of Peace in the set Mortal Song:

partnamed ChineseWhat's in this section
Start of the questElephant of Peace - Elephant's JourneyWatch the elephant show > go to house Zhao Xing > Choose the color of the elephant doll (It's just the color of a decorative item)
End of the questElephant of Peace - Porcelain OathMust be unlocked using a [[Dream Blossom Note]] letter There isOption during soldier invasionDetermines ending and subsequent quests

If Rewind just at the beginning, you'll only see the color selection scene, won't encounter the desired option Check this quest details fully >

3.2 Have you selected the correct node yet

If Rewind from the node you're atAfterThe branching point, the option won't appear, you must select a node before the branching point

3.3 Are there special conditions for the choices?

Some choices appear only when certain conditions are met, such as the choice Wuqing Fellow Disciple requiring a friendship level with an NPC Wuqing over 351 or Bandit Warrant needing to unlock a system Identity Case Solving first

4. Frequently Asked Questions

You are at the right coordinates but the quest doesn't appear, why?
The most common causes are: ① reaching the weekly quota for Adventure quests (Minor Fortune ~15 times, Good Fortune ~12 times); ② being in a Rewind status where open-world quests won't trigger; ③ failing to meet quest conditions; ④ NPCs only appearing at certain in-game times; ⑤ server channel bugs. Try running around in circles, using the Ironweight Drop skill, or switching server channels
Selected the wrong choice in Story, can it be fixed?
Fix it using the Rewind system, open the mission journal, select the all-missions tab, click on the desired Story to see the Story flowchart, and click the Rewind button in the top right corner to replay that scene. You must unlock this system first by completing the Beyond the Misty Clouds. A Forgotten Past quest
Why can't I click to select a branch in the flowchart Story?
Because that flowchart is view-only. The glowing boxes are the paths you have previously chosen, and the percentage numbers are the proportion of players who picked that option. You cannot change branches directly; you must press the Rewind button to replay the scene, and the choices will appear during the dialogue within the scene.
Rewind The choice I want still doesn't appear at all. What should I do?
Check 3 things: ① Does the quest have multiple parts?. The choice might be in a later part, not the first. For example, the Elephant of Peace quest is divided into Elephant's Journey (first part) and Porcelain Vow (final part), and the important choice is in the final part which requires the Dream Blossom Note letter to open. ② Select the node right before the split point before pressing Rewind. ③ Some choices have special conditions, such as NPC affinity levels or ununlocked systems
Why doesn't quest Rumors appear after finishing playing Rewind?
You must exit the Rewind state and return to the real world first, because while you are in Rewind, quests in the real world will not trigger.
Why can't I press the Rewind button?
If you just completed that quest today, you cannot press Rewind again. Use the Floral Branch item in your inventory and wait until the next day to Rewind again
