Throne is on a quest to secure her freedom from the Blacksnakes. During Throne’s Chapter 2: Mother’s Route in Octopath Traveler II, she’ll head to Oresrush to learn more about Mother’s whereabouts. Please note that the recommended level for this main story is 7.
Oresrush
Make your way to Oresrush in the Wildlands. Once there enter the red building between the general store and the inn to trigger an event. Afterwards, head north and enter the tavern to find the Shifty Man. Steal the Horse Coin from him then make your way back to the saddlery. Speak with the Saddlery Owner behind the counter. He’ll tell you that Mother was meeting the slaver in the Foundry. The special phrase is “Drink from the cup in your left hand.”
Oresrush: Foundry
Head north to reach the Foundry. Once you enter this area, a brief cutscene will trigger. Head down the stairs to the left leading to an alley which will trigger another event. Interact with the Masked Boy and steal his mask. When the boy runs off, head north and interact with the Lookout in front of the foundry. Throne will automatically give the secret phrase and you’ll enter the foundry to witness an event with the Slaver. He’ll tell you where Mother went if you best him. When you’re ready to begin, speak with the Slaver and select “yes” to sit at death’s table. During the game, you’ll have to choose between the left or right cup. Chose the right! He’ll tell you that mother hides in Wellgrove.
