As you begin your journey with Khazan, you'll need to be vigilant. While enemies in ambush are a significant threat, the environment holds other secrets, including treasure chests, hard-to-reach pick-ups, and the red, glowing Soulstones. These stones are scattered throughout the levels and require keen observation and some platforming skills to locate. Don't just admire them; you must destroy each Soulstone using either melee attacks or your Javelin.

Once you reach The Crevice, the hub zone, and access the portals to navigate through different levels, you'll be able to track the number of Soulstones available in each area.

Every Soulstone you destroy contributes to a total count that can be used through the NPC Daphrona. You'll first meet Daphrona in the Embars Ruins – Forgotten Temple level. She'll explain the situation with the Netherworld and the leaking energy. After clearing the level, she'll move to The Crevice, accessible in the Nether realm.

When you speak to Daphrona, you'll have the option to "Unleash Soulstones." Depending on your accumulated Soulstones, you can enhance Khazan in various ways. The primary choices are to boost your Lacrima Gain, aiding in leveling up and stat improvements, or to increase the health recovery from using Netherworld Energy.

Additionally, you might unlock other valuable buffs, such as attack or recovery enhancements, which can give you a significant advantage in facing the challenges of Khazan's journey. It's wise to check back with Daphrona after destroying a few Soulstones to see if you've gathered enough for another beneficial upgrade.
