Treasured Above All - Genshin Impact - Version 5.6

"Treasured Above All" in Genshin Impact Version 5.6 refers to two distinct components: an event and a Story Quest tied to the character Escoffier. Below is a detailed breakdown based on available information:
1. Treasured Above All (Event)
Overview: This is a limited-time event introduced in Version 5.6, released on May 7, 2025, and available until May 27, 2025, 17:59 (server time).
Requirements:
Adventure Rank 40 or above.
Completion of Archon Quest Chapter IV: Act V "Masquerade of the Guilty."
Players who reach Adventure Rank 28 and complete Archon Quest Chapter I: Act III "A New Star Approaches" can use the "Quick Start" function to unlock Escoffier's Story Quest, "Dulciaria Structura Chapter," which ties into this event.
Description: The event revolves around themes of culinary artistry and brilliance, with a narrative focus on Escoffier, a 5-star Cryo Polearm character. The description likens a cake to a castle and a cherry to a crown, symbolizing extraordinary deeds and the struggles of ordinary mortals in the shadow of genius.
Gameplay: While specific mechanics are not fully detailed, the event likely involves cooking or culinary challenges, given Escoffier’s background as the former head chef of Hotel Debord. It may include tasks like preparing dishes or participating in a cook-off, similar to activities described in the Story Quest.
2. Treasured Above All (Story Quest)
Overview: This is the first act of Escoffier’s Story Quest, part of the Dulciaria Structura Chapter, released in Phase 1 of Version 5.6 (May 7, 2025).
Unlock Requirements:
Complete Archon Quest Chapter IV: Act V "Masquerade of the Guilty."
Reach Adventure Rank 40.
The "Quick Start" function is available until May 27, 2025, 17:59, for players at Adventure Rank 28 who have completed Chapter I: Act III.
Story Details:
The Traveler and Paimon arrive at Hotel Debord in Fontaine, where they meet Navia. The quest centers on helping Escoffier, a renowned chef, resolve troubles at the hotel.
A key part involves a cooking assessment where Escoffier tests the Traveler, Paimon, and Navia’s culinary skills. They must prepare dishes from the Hotel Debord menu:
Paimon and Navia’s dishes score a low 6/100.
The Traveler’s dish earns an 8/10, impressing Escoffier, though she notes room for improvement.
Other characters, like Firmin and Monica, appear, with Firmin volunteering to assist but struggling due to trembling hands, and Monica stepping in to help.
The quest culminates in a double-blind cook-off, judged by Vaneigem, where the winner is determined by a slip under the dishes.
Players must balance flavors using Floral Flavoring and Fruity Flavoring cards and submit only "delicious" variants of food items (suspicious or normal variants are rejected, and Special Dishes are not allowed).
Rewards: Completing the Story Quest provides typical rewards like Primogems, Mora, and character experience materials, though exact amounts are not specified.
Player Sentiment: Community feedback highlights enjoyment of the quest, with praise for the “Food Wars”-style cook-off and Escoffier’s character (rated 7.5/10). The English voice acting, with occasional accent slips, was noted as charming.
