One Teleport Is Enough To Clear "Can You Give Me Some Time With This?"

You will be asked to wait for a while after handing over the Unalloyed Gold Needle, but if you talk again after teleporting, the quest will start and you will receive the repaired Gold Needle.

3. Head To The Church Of The Plague Through Sellia, Tower Of Sorcery

Second Route

From the cliffs south of Fort Faroth, you can use the Spiritspring to head down. If you already unlocked Fort Faroth's Site of Grace, this path is faster than releasing all the seals in Sellia, Town of Sorcery.
