There are several items and Fragments of note in this area.
The first item is the Labyrinth Gate Seal. This can be found on the stone ramp,
hovering over a gap to the southeast. Use Moogle Throw to grab it. Second of
the interesting items is the Silver Petal. To find this item, examine the
flower in the Lamentable Rest area. You should have picked this up for the
Anima Miseria side quest while you were exploring Bresha Ruins 005AF. Finally, the Old Device sits in a
stuffed animal in the Lamentable Rest zone and is needed for the Rhodium Ring
side quest in Bresha Ruins 100AF.
While running around the area collecting your items, you may
encounter a temporal disturbance. They look like a sort of miniature black
hole, and the herald the arrival of unique monsters. These creatures are pretty
strong, but at this level you should be able to deal with them just fine.
Now that you’ve collected the various items in the area, you
should head out in search of the four Fragments that rest in Bresha Ruins. The
first is the Platinum Ring Fragment, which is obtained in a quest that begins
near where you first spawned into the area. Speak to the NPC named Jonah on the
steps to begin this quest. Go northwest, to the corner of the Echoes of the Past
area, and use Moogle Hunt near the Chocobo. You will reveal a chest. Open it to
receive the Recording Device that Jonah was looking for. Return it and he will
trade you the Platinum Ring Fragment.
The next Fragment is the Mythril Ring Fragment. Speaking
with Thurston in the tunnel to the southeast of the Echoes of the Past area will
begin the quest. Go to the side of the map, by the Chocobo, and then head
southeast to find the Commander. Speak to him to get the Commander’s Report
item, which you should then return to Thurston. He will exchange the Mythril
Ring Fragment for the Commander’s Report.
The third Fragment is called the Iridium Ring, and it can be
found in the Lamentable Rest area. You will have to speak with an NPC named
Lex. He will appear as an outline until you use Moogle Hunt. Speak with him to
obtain the Iridium Ring side quest. Find Lex’s friend in the southwestern
tunnel in the Echoes of the Past area and speak with him to begin a Live
Trigger Event. He will ask you several questions. The answers, in order, are: “A
job as a shoe salesman would be your best fit,” “Need an ark? I Noah a guy,”
and “Salt merchants are movers and shakers.” Return to Lex with the item you
receive to get the Fragment.
The final Fragment in the area is the Control Device
Password 2 Fragment, and it can only be obtained after you’ve collected the
previous three. You also have to begin the Adamantite Ring side quest in Bresha
Ruins 100AF. Now head to the chamber with Atlas control device in the Echoes of
the Past area. Speak to the NPC called Governmen Agent. You will have to solve a small series of puzzles
to get the Control Device Password 2 Fragment and 400 experience points.
