Pensive Phantom Quest: Capture a Photo of Ghostlord atop the Statue in Zenless Zone Zero

Well, now, let me tell y’all ’bout this thing I heard, somethin’ called “Pensive Phantom.” Now, I ain’t one for fancy words or all that high-tech mumbo jumbo, but I reckon I can still tell ya ’bout it. So, you got this big ol’ city, with folks walkin’ ’round, and they tell ya to go hunt down somethin’ called a “Ghostlord.” Never heard of no Ghostlord before, but sounds mighty spooky to me. Anyway, they say ya gotta take a photo of this Ghostlord, and you gotta get it up on top of a statue. Yep, right on top, like a crow sittin’ on a fence post!

Now, this whole “Pensive Phantom” thing ain’t too clear, but from what I gather, it’s a quest. Not sure if it’s like one of them treasure hunts folks used to do back in the day, or somethin’ more mysterious. But, if you ask me, it’s just another one of those city folks’ way of makin’ you run ’round chasin’ somethin’ that don’t quite make sense. The good ol’ Ghostlord, well, it’s a tricky thing to find, that’s for sure.

Here’s how you go ’bout doin’ it:

First off, you gotta go to Ballet Twins Road. Don’t ask me where that is, just follow the road like the rest of ’em do, and ya should be close.
Next, ya gotta find a statue. Well, that’s not too hard, I reckon. Statues are everywhere. But this ain’t just any statue, no sir, it’s the one where the Ghostlord is supposed to be, all perched up high.
Once you’re standin’ there, tryin’ to catch a glimpse of this Ghostlord, ya gotta take a picture of it. Now, I don’t know how you city folks do it, but if ya ask me, I’d just use a good ol’ camera, snap that photo, and hope for the best!

They say ya can only do this at midnight too. So, y’all gotta make sure it’s late, right when the moon’s up high in the sky. Not too many folks around either, just the wind and maybe a stray cat or two. Ain’t that the best time for spooky things to show up?

Why is this important?

Well, from what I hear, gettin’ a photo of the Ghostlord is mighty important for somethin’ called the Pensive Phantom quest. I reckon this is part of somethin’ bigger, but don’t ask me what. Folks in the city are always workin’ on these mysterious quests and all, and I’m just here tryin’ to make sense of it all. Maybe it’s got to do with spirits or ghosts or somethin’.

Now, I gotta tell ya, there ain’t much information about the Ghostlord itself. Folks say it’s hard to find and harder still to get a good picture of. But once ya do, well, I reckon that’s a step closer to finishin’ the whole quest. After all, it’s not every day ya get to capture somethin’ like that, right?

What to keep in mind:

Ya gotta be at least level 40 to get involved in this. If you ain’t that level yet, well, better get busy, I guess.
Make sure you’re there when the clock strikes midnight. No other time works, that’s what I’ve been told.
Keep an eye on the surroundings, because this Ghostlord ain’t just gonna pop up for no reason. You might need to do a little waiting.

So, if y’all ever find yourselves wanderin’ through this big city, lookin’ for somethin’ mysterious and spookier than the next thunderstorm, remember the Ghostlord. Take a photo if ya can, and maybe you’ll find out what this whole Pensive Phantom thing is about. Me? I’ll stick to my chickens and my garden, but I reckon there’s some folks out there who like chasin’ ghosts and takin’ pictures of ’em. Good luck to ‘em, I say!
