How to unlock Mona’s Story Quest
As mentioned earlier, you can actually bypass the requirement to clear Mona‘s Story Quest with the Quick Start button on the event. That said, clearing Mona’s Story Quest will greatly enhance the narrative in Summertime Odyssey—particularly Mona’s arc.
To unlock Mona’s Story Quest, you must collect (and use) a Story Key. Launch Genshin Impact on your device, then open the Quests menu.
