Lumin Amber and badges
Lumin Amber levels up the Breezy Plains Branch, which unlocks perks such as better Prismatic Energy gains and weather control. You find it in the open world, from Lumin Collections and Lumin Markings, as quest rewards, and on glowing Blessed Aniimo, which drop one when caught. Collection Badges track each area: Bronze unlocks nurturing there, Silver unlocks weather control, and Gold speeds up Prismatic Energy.

How Sanctums work
Sanctums are puzzle dungeons with chests. Inside, you awaken a special Aniimo and Twine with it to get through, and you clear the Sanctum by repairing the Vein at the end. Clears give Sparkling Crystals and Aniipod Ultra Vouchers, and some Sanctums are built for two players.
Achievements along the way
- Echo of the Veins: activate the Branch in Breezy Plains.
- Blessed Flow: raise the Branch to Prismana Radiance.
- Wanderer's Might: raise it to Wanderer's Might.
- First Sanctum Foray: clear your first Sanctum and restore the Vein.
- Sanctum Savant: clear 10 Sanctums.
