How to Unlock Where His Life Lies

Complete the Prerequisites

Quest Unlock Requirements
Genshin - Where His Life Lies
Genshin Impact - Garcia Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility

To unlock Where His Life Lies, you must have first completed Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility quest in Sumeru. You can check in the Sumeru Reputation Board if you have already unlocked the quest by talking to Effendi!

Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility

Garcia and Lutong Not in the Waterway Hub?

Some players have reported that even after completing Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility, the marker for this quest doesn't appear in the supposed location.

We suggest getting the Principia Arithmetica Achievement first, which requires you to complete the Sumeru Daily Commission, Garcia's Paean: Echo of Someone, three times. Then, wait for a server reset, and Garcia should appear in Fontaine!

Alternatively, there are other players who have also reported that doing the Daily Commissions, Garcia's Paean: Subsititutes or Garcia's Paean: Key Items twice, then waiting for a server reset triggered the quest for them!

I got this commission after completing Garcia's Paean: A Gift of Compatibility, followed by 1 key item, 1 substitute, and a server reset.

I've completed the necessary quest and even have the Principia achievement, so I sincerely hope that replaying one of the daily quests will help get Garcia to return to Fontaine.
