"There's a cave to the east of here. It houses an ancient altar inside its dark depths." —Elderly Woman in Wispermill


Ebony Grotto is a location in Octopath Traveler. In this ominous cavern, the climax of Ophilia's final chapter takes place, where she confronts Mattias to end his dark ritual and save her sister Lianna.

Description[]

Ebony Grotto is a flooded cave system split into two sections, the first section permeated with peach-colored mist. A river unites both halves, filling the caverns with echoing ripples as well as a few small waterfalls. Dark stone forms the floor, walls, and ceiling of the caves, peaking into gigantic stalagmites that line the paths like fangs.

The depths of the cavern lose their light and descend into deep, solemn darkness, broken only by flickering torches and the dripping of water. Scattered stone tiles line the floor, supplemented with fragmented ruins that lie broken against the rock. At the heart of the Ebony Grotto rests a dark altar to Galdera, built by his followers long ago.

Trivia[]

  • Although not officially marked as such, the Ebony Grotto is implied to be the long-lost location of Galdera's shrine, similar to the shrines of the twelve other gods.
  • The Zealots may drop Monster Perfume (an item that heals all enemies) upon defeat, implying that Mattias's cultists have tamed the grotto's beasts, specifically Vampire Bats and Mortal Mushrooms.
