A detailed guide to help you get all collectibles in Chronotopia (elemental spirits & memory fragments).

This guide is meant to help you collect all the collectibles hidden in Chronotopia: Second Skin. Those collectibles being elemental spirits and memory fragments as archives are unlocked by simply following the story and sometimes making specific choices (see previous guide).
You will first be given a hint (screenshot) and what the last relevant choice was in order for you to save and find the collectible on your own. If you still struggle, you can hover on the spoiler part to reveal the answer.

Some fragments (between 1 and 3) > Back to the beginning
All fragments (4) > Your name is…
Elemental Spirits
Water
This one regularly appears throughout the B2 route so there are plenty of opportunities to grab it and plenty of possible save files.
The water spirit is engraved on the well of Griselde’s castle courtyard (bottom left part of the screen)
Fire
This one appears both in the C1 route and in the C2 route during the same specific event. The last relevant point will either be the “Socialization / Management / Embroidery” choice or the hidden object game.
The fire spirit is bouncing up and down in the fireplace of Kionna’s Clairmont bedroom (middle right part of the screen)
Air
This one appears briefly but several times throughout the D route. The last relevant choice is either “I have no idea / Time is absorbing itself” or “Appeal to authority / Appeal to benevolence”.
The air spirit is hidden in the clouds, seen in Genèse’s palace garden (top right part of the screen)
Earth
The last one appears extremely briefly and only in Médeia’s ending so the last choice at your disposal is “Become a fairy”, in other words entering her path.
The earth spirit is hidden in the roots of the World Tree (middle right part of the screen)
Reward
Collecting all elemental spirits will give you the Researcher achievement
