Wuthering Waves incorporates a variety of gameplay into its exploration quests. Players not only have the chance to try out various gameplay mechanics, but they can also learn more about the lore that Wuthering Waves is built upon. Usually, the main exploration quests unlock certain areas on the map for players, but there are side quests that dabble in the exploration mechanic as well.
When The Moonlight Shines In The Forest is one of these side quests. It takes Rovers on a mission to find artificial moons scattered around the region. The side quest is only available after completing the main exploration quest: When The Forest Is No Longer Dim. It is only after completing it will the side quest pop up on the map near Violet Banyan.

The Moonlight Shines In The Forest Quest Walkthrough
Head over to any of the Resonance Beacons near Violet Banyan to find Qiaomo. The navigation should pop up on the mini map when you’re closer to the tree, and you’ll find her at the base of it. She’ll ask you to find some Artificial Moons that are scattered around Thorny Passage and Violet Banyan. You can follow this guide to locate all four of them.
Where To Find Artificial Moon 1
There will be a quest marker letting players know the area in which they need to look. Head for the river that divides Thorny Passage from Violet Banyan, and toward the tip of the river, there will be a small pool. The Artificial Moon will be lying in the middle. You can just pick it up and head for the next location on the map.

The second moon will be located behind a waterfall. Teleport to the Huanglong-Dim Forest Resonance Beacon and head west on the map. Once you’re there, turn right and jump off the side where you see the waterfall. Just walk through it, and you’ll see the piece leaning on the wall.
