Mimir’s Well: How to Get the Hidden Achievement in Genshin Impact 7.2
A hidden Wonders of the World achievement from version 7.2, and a trading chain in the old fairy-tale shape: one pearl, six people across Novokitezhgrad, a better item at every stop. Eternolf filmed the whole chain in four minutes with no voice-over; this page writes it up stop by stop, with the item names read off the screen.

How to get the Mimir’s Well achievement in Genshin Impact
To get Mimir’s Well, take the Precious Pearl from Obrenov at the Royal Railway Transport Bureau, then trade your way through Novokitezhgrad: pearl to Ortwin, box to Maryyushka, gem to Sapieha, wine to Bezprim, ore to Asvathama. Then go back to Obrenov. It is a hidden achievement in the Wonders of the World category, added with version 7.2 on 4 November 2026, and its in-game line is “Take whatever you desire, so long as you can pay the price...”.
The name points at the Norse myth, where Odin gave an eye for a drink from Mimir’s well. Here the price is smaller: every person on the way wants the item you carry and pays for it with something better.
0:31 · The start: Obrenov hands over the Precious Pearl, “a pearl said to have formed from a Water Imp’s tears”, and the quest The Kind Soul Who Brings Bread begins.
Only that first leg is a tracked quest, The Kind Soul Who Brings Bread, with the objective “Talk to the fishy merchant”. It completes at Ortwin. From there on nothing is marked on the map, and the quest log only shows your main quest. That is the hidden part.

Each Mimir’s Well trade, step by step
Teleport to the Royal Railway Transport Bureau waypoint, south of Downtown Novokitezhgrad, and look for Obrenov by the luggage cart next to a pillar on the platform. Talk to him for the pearl.
0:36 · The waypoint for the first and the last stop: the Royal Railway Transport Bureau, at the southern tip of the city.
Ortwin stands on the canal steps in Downtown, beside a fisherman and across from Prusten’s stall. Give him the pearl: the quest completes, and you get an Ordinary Jewelry Box and 20,000 Mora.
1:00 · Quest completed at Ortwin: the pearl becomes an Ordinary Jewelry Box.
Maryyushka’s Antykvariat is a short walk away. Parnov, the owner, greets you, but it is his clerk Maryyushka, a little creature in a cap, who takes the box. The game narrates it: “Maryyushka reaches out with its little stubby arms and takes the box from you. After inspecting it for a while, it seems to arrive at a verdict. Then it rummages through the box behind it, pulls out a gleaming gemstone, and offers it to you...”
1:16 · The Hand Over screen at the Antykvariat. Owner Parnov on the right, clerk Maryyushka in the middle.
Sapieha runs The Cellar Forge. Eternolf teleports to the Statue of The Seven in Downtown and climbs the wide staircase behind it. Talk to her and pick “Maybe this is what you’ve been looking for...” to give her the gem; she pays with The Cellar Forge’s Heirloom Vintage.
2:05 · The dialogue option to choose at Sapieha. “[Open Shop]” is her normal shop.
Bezprim wants exactly that bottle. He says so himself: “I only know of a few bottles over at The Cellar Forge. Too bad the lady who runs the place is too stingy.” Give him the vintage for the One-in-a-Hundred Ore, “a high-grade ore with a faint sheen, almost entirely free of impurities”.
2:43 · Bezprim, on his terrace of blue flowers, explaining why he needs the vintage.
Asvathama, a scholar, waits at a stall full of crystals and matryoshka dolls. Give him the ore. He pays 5 Primogems and two purple character EXP books (the Hero’s Wit icon).
3:23 · The last trade: Asvathama pays in primogems.
Then teleport back to the Royal Railway Transport Bureau and talk to Obrenov again. You tell him how his free box turned into “exquisite jewelry, a prized vintage wine, and a rare mineral”, and Mimir’s Well unlocks as the talk ends.
4:00 · Back at Obrenov: “Achievement Completed: Mimir’s Well”.
What Mimir’s Well gives you
The chain pays 20,000 Mora at Ortwin, 5 Primogems and two purple EXP books at Asvathama, and the achievement adds 5 more Primogems when you claim it. The four trade items in between are quest items; you hand each one on.
Mimir’s Well is one of 32 new Wonders of the World achievements in version 7.2. Tick it off in our Wonders of the World achievement tracker, and if you are hunting the others in Novokitezhgrad, The Pied Piper takes five minutes in the same district.
Talk to Obrenov at the Royal Railway Transport Bureau for a Precious Pearl, then trade it on: to Ortwin for an Ordinary Jewelry Box, to Maryyushka at Maryyushka’s Antykvariat for a gem, to Sapieha at The Cellar Forge for a vintage wine, to Bezprim for an ore, and to Asvathama for primogems. Then talk to Obrenov again.

Where is Obrenov in Novokitezhgrad?
On the platform of the Royal Railway Transport Bureau, the station at the southern tip of Novokitezhgrad, next to a luggage cart. Its teleport waypoint is right beside him.

What does Mimir’s Well give?
5 Primogems for the achievement. The chain itself pays 20,000 Mora, 5 Primogems and two purple EXP books along the way.

Why is there no quest marker after Ortwin?
Only the first leg, The Kind Soul Who Brings Bread, is a tracked quest. The trades after it are hidden, which is what makes Mimir’s Well a hidden achievement.
