The Tethyan Parchment Tatters are a hidden collectible found aboard the Chrysalith that was added as part of Warframe’s Iceblade of Narin update.
Unlike most resources or collectibles, the parchment is not obtained from enemies or mission rewards and instead requires players to discover a concealed room within the Chrysalith.
Finding the Tethyan Parchment Tatters is important for the hidden Neote puzzle, as the parchment contains clues that point toward the conditions needed to fulfill Narin’s prophecy.
What are the Tethyan Parchment Tatters?
The Tethyan Parchment Tatters are a collection of writings hidden inside Melica’s Secret Room, an area that was originally used to display developer credits for Angels of the Zariman.
The parchment was added with the Iceblade of Narin update and contains several cryptic clues connected to Narin, Neote, and the hidden puzzle found at Yuvan Peak.
Players only need to locate the secret room and interact with the parchment to collect it, making this one of the easier requirements once its location is known.
Where to Find the Tethyan Parchment Tatters?
The Tethyan Parchment Tatters can be found aboard the Chrysalith, which serves as the main hub for the Zariman and can be accessed after progressing through the required Zariman content.
The parchment is located inside Melica’s Secret Room near the elevator used when entering and returning from Zariman missions, but the entrance is easy to miss because it blends into the surrounding area.
There is no need to enter a Zariman mission or search through randomly generated rooms, as the parchment is located directly within the Chrysalith hub.
How to Reach Melica’s Secret Room?
Travel to the Chrysalith and head toward the large elevator that normally takes players between the hub and Zariman missions.
When leaving the elevator and facing into the Chrysalith, look toward the right side for an opening that is partially concealed behind hanging vines and vegetation.
Walk through the vines and continue through the hidden passage, which leads into Melica’s Secret Room where the developer credits and Tethyan Parchment Tatters can be found.
How to Collect the Tethyan Parchment Tatters?
Once inside Melica’s Secret Room, look around the walls for the collection of papers that makes up the Tethyan Parchment Tatters.
Approach the parchment and use the interaction prompt to collect it, permanently adding the discovery needed for the hidden Neote puzzle.
There are no enemies, combat encounters, special keys, or additional puzzles that need to be completed before the parchment can be collected.
What are the Tethyan Parchment Tatters Used For?
The Tethyan Parchment Tatters are connected to the hidden Neote puzzle at Narin’s Crest on Yuvan Peak and provide clues toward fulfilling the prophecy surrounding Narin’s sword.
Its writings hint at several unusual conditions involved in the puzzle, including requirements that players would otherwise have little reason to attempt together.
Collecting the parchment is therefore an important step for players working toward completing the prophecy and obtaining the cosmetic rewards associated with Neote.
Do You Need to Collect Multiple Parchment Tatters?
Despite the plural name, players do not need to search the Zariman for several individual Tethyan Parchment Tatters scattered across different locations.
The parchment found inside Melica’s Secret Room is the collectible associated with the Neote puzzle, so there is no need to repeatedly search the Chrysalith after obtaining it.
Once it has been collected, players can focus on preparing the remaining requirements before returning to Narin’s Crest at Yuvan Peak.
Verdict
The Tethyan Parchment Tatters are well hidden but become extremely easy to obtain once the entrance to Melica’s Secret Room is known.
Head to the Chrysalith elevator, locate the vine-covered opening nearby, and follow the concealed passage until reaching the parchment inside the secret room.
Collecting it provides clues toward Narin’s hidden prophecy and completes one of the steps needed for players attempting to solve the Neote puzzle.
