Mi’ihen Highroad

This is another very quick trip. As soon as you enter the Mi’ihen Highroad, you’ll be approached by an Al Bhed woman who will implore you to join Rin near the Travel Agency as he presents the results of his investigation.

In short, if you followed the steps in this guide, Rin’s investigation will reveal that the culprit is Rikku, and Rin will present his evidence of actions she’s taken in the preceding chapters (many of which you’ve witnessed indirectly) that led to the Machina problems.

The suspects, and those you can select, include the Chocobo Eater, Calli, Prophet, or Rin himself. And while it is possible to have Rin select anyone, depending on the actions you take, having Rin select Rikku is the easiest because it involves completing every step successfully (not failing the Chocobo Mission, etc.) and nets you a Gold Accessory IconRagnarok accessory as a reward.

Note that the Rikku outcome means you never receive Gippal’s Sphere, which belongs to a different culprit’s path; that line is one of the few the tracker shows as mutually exclusive, and 100% Story Completion is still fully reachable without it.

Who did Rin name as the culprit for the Mi’ihen Mystery?

Rin named himself, so there is no Episode Complete here and this save can no longer reach 100%. You receive Gippal’s Sphere instead.

If you’d like to learn more about the other potential outcomes, check out the Mi’ihen Highroad Mystery page in the Side Quest section:

A cutscene plays out after Rin has identified the culprit; you’ll get another “Episode Complete” screen, and then it’s back up to the Celsius. There’s one last thing to do, though. Head back down and travel to this area of the map to pick up the Key Item IconVictor Primoris.

You may have to maneuver the Chocobo around a bit while tapping the PlayStation Circle ButtonXbox B ButtonNintendo Switch A Button button. The first time you activate the mechanic, your Chocobo will jump up and grab a treasure chest on the top level, which contains five Item IconPhoenix Downs. Leave the area, re-enter, jump in the same spot, and this time your Chocobo will drop down to grab the Key Item IconVictor Primoris.

There are a bunch of other treasure chests that you can obtain along the Mi’ihen Highroad, just like in previous chapters, but these are all optional and none of the items are important. The maps and treasure locations are included below for reference.

Your next destination is the Moonflow. We’re going to skip over two locations for now: you’re missing some of the Spheres you need to open up the “Den of Woe” along Mushroom Rock Road, and Djose Temple / Bikanel Desert include a quest that’s easier if you visit the Calm Lands first. To reiterate, your next destination is Moonflow.
