The history of the Dilyuk skin

The event includes a backstory for Dilyuk’s Scarlet Night skin. We will have quests that will explain the meaning of Dilyuk’s outfit and why he does not have a vision in it. Event quests can also serve as unlocking quests for challenges.
In addition to the backstory, we can use the trial version of the Dilyuk skin in the stages!
Go to the Dawn Distillery and go to the specified location
Quest Ghosts of the Past
If you meet all the conditions, then you will have the task “Ghosts of the Past”. Paimon wants to buy a bottle or two of the cool, refreshing juice from the Dawn Distillery, so head to the distillery and talk to Adelinda at the entrance.
She will tell you that to make grape juice, you need grapes, which Dilyuk personally selects. But before proceeding with the collection, he needs to solve several problems and he left for the Falcon coast.
Paimon guesses that the “problems” are related to the Order of the Abyss and offered to help find Diluc.
