Walkthrough of the quest Plagues of Sorrowful Fate in Genshin Impact
Having restored the golden waterways, together with Scylla, perform a special melody and open the gates of the Golden Palace. Inside, you will meet Ossi, who arrived here earlier, and Boethius himself, ready to perform the ascension ritual. Fight the evil spirit to free the souls of past and present inhabitants of the lands of Remuria and Petrichor. When it's all over, say goodbye to the Water Dragon and return the snow-white cat to the village.
Release ichor to link waterways
At the Golden Palace in the Sea of Ancient, talk to Scylla and activate the instrument at the entrance to perform a symphony and weaken Boethius' powers. Play with the dragon along waterways that resemble a harp. Only after this will you be able to get into the golden palace, breaking the protection of the evil spirit.
Perform a symphony with Scylla
During press the spacebar or icon in the center of the screen when the yellow circle is in the white zone to hit the notes. If you miss, nothing will happen - you can make mistakes in a story scene.
Continue onward
When the string playing comes to an end, enter the golden palace through the main entrance. Along with this you will receive achievement "Late Successor". Head straight up the stairs and reach a spacious hall, in the center of which is located Golem Legate.
We recommend setting up a squad in advance and adding it to the team Character Geo, so that he can effectively destroy the enemy’s shield. For these purposes, they are perfect for, for example, Navia. Subsequently, the golem will become a permanent world boss, but in story mode it is much weaker.
Defeat Boethius
After the cutscene, a fight will begin - Cassiodorus will Boethius, asking the Traveler to trust his companion. Try to destroy the statue's shield as quickly as possible by dealing Geo damage, heavy blows with a two-handed sword, or causing an Overload reaction (Pyro + Electro). Destroy the resonators that will appear on the field to significantly weaken the enemy.
When you remove the yellow protection bar, the following scene will play: Cassiodor will pierce the golem's chest with its own weapon. Continue the battle until the boss's health is reduced to half.
Watch the next story scene and defeat Boethius or Cassiodorus, imprisoned in one golem. The enemy will simply stand with his head bowed, so at this stage it is easy to defeat the enemy. At the end, all the guards in the hall themselves will behead their leader.
Climb to the top floor of the golden palace
At the end of the battle, activate the mechanism to get to the top floor of the golden palace. The soul of Cassiodor left the body of the cat, and now it is an ordinary pet named Ossie.
Start playing the harp
At the top, talk to the dragon and report what happened. Scylla will ask you to perform the last “Requiem” and return the souls of the inhabitants. Approach the podium and begin your performance, also playing the notes. If you miss, the scene will slow down and return to the missed chord, but the number of attempts is not limited.
After your performance, you will receive another reward from ancient autoharmonic music box for the performance of the sixth symphony “Time of Tears”.
Return to Petrichor
Following the current, consisting of a myriad of souls, the company will leave the underwater kingdom and return to Petrichor. On land, talk to Scylla and say goodbye. Paimon will mention that it would be worth telling Est about everything and figuring out where to place his four-legged companion now. At the end of the dialogue, the task will be completed and you will receive "Ode to Harmony" achievement.
After completing the main cycle "In the name of the past and the future".

There was also a bug when qte did not appear when playing the harp; lowering the graphics settings helped.
While playing I encountered a bug. When you play the harp, a QTE with pressing spacebar does not appear above one of the columns, although the people I saw with this quest did not have such a problem. I’m warning you just in case someone else encounters this too.
We completed the quest too sadly, worse even than with the Ararans TK there were much more interactions with Mr. Ossi and he was always there, now there is no desire to even enter the location TK literally anywhere you find yourself will only be sad that the eternal companion is no longer with you.
Boethius will be in the form of a Statue of marble and brass. That is, you must first break the Geo Shield with the help of Persians who have the same element, or two-handed, or all together into one (Noelle, Itto and Navia are prime examples). Because with a shield, the resistance to all elements is 70%. Without a shield, the boss will be inactive for 10 seconds, losing 140% resistance. (Info from HomDGCat Wiki)
