Resonance Theseus Echoes — All 5 Locations (Pierced Coins)
Last verified: 2026-09-10 · Game version: Launch
The Theseus Echoes are 5 pierced coin altars hidden across the ancient ruins — each one is a small stone altar with an axe resting over a chalice. Interacting with one triggers an audio flashback from Theseus' life and grants a Pierced Coin. Collecting all five unlocks the In The Name Of My Kin achievement (30G).
What Pierced Coins Do
Each Pierced Coin raises the chance that Sophia or Theseus won't consume the Focus Gauge when using it — the more coins you hold, the more often the gauge stays full.
How They Relate to Charms (Important)
These 5 Theseus Echoes also count toward the charm total — they are the "Pierced Coins" category among the 30 charms. In other words:
| Stat | Counted? |
|---|---|
| Charms (30) → Superstitious | ✅ Counted (as Pierced Coins 1–5) |
| Theseus Echoes (5) → In The Name Of My Kin | ✅ Counted separately |
So when you've collected all 30 charms, these 5 Theseus Echoes are collected too — the two achievements unlock at the same time or back to back.
The 5 Locations
| # | Chapter | Location |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ch5 Desolation It Wrought | Four-symbol trials — take the "three-line circle" door, cross the bridge, take the left-most path, climb the ladder to the top and interact with the axe statue |
| 2 | Ch6 What Lies Beneath | Daedalus shortcut — after dropping off the cliff, don't enter the right door, go straight to the door at the end, unlock it with Daedalus' Key and interact with the axe offering bowl |
| 3 | Ch7 Death It Sowed | After the big drop, slide under the door and swing two grapnel points, then jump right to the platform to the right of the big green door |
| 4 | Ch9 Night Has Come | Minoan palace — climb the stairs past the petrified crowd to the top, turn left and squeeze through the wall gap, the bowl is in the back room |
| 5 | Ch10 Parallel Paths | The far end of Daedalus' workshop — jump onto the chain-hung mirror, find the grapnel point, pull down the counterweight to open the hidden tomb, interact with the anvil-shaped bowl |
Tips
- All of them can be collected via chapter select, no risk of missing out.
- The bowl's shape (pierced coin / offering bowl) differs from ordinary chests, so you'll know it when you see it.
