As you embark on your adventure with Khazan, you'll encounter numerous dangers, from ambushes to hidden traps. Amidst these hazards, you'll find various items, including treasure chests and guarded pick-ups. One such item to keep an eye out for is the red, glowing Soulstones. These stones are scattered across levels and require keen observation and platforming skills to locate. Don't just admire them; you need to destroy each Soulstone using either melee attacks or your Javelin's ranged capabilities.
Once you reach The Crevice hub zone and access portals to different levels, you'll be able to track the number of Soulstones available in each area. This knowledge will help you strategize your exploration and maximize your gains.

Every Soulstone you destroy contributes to a total count that you can use through the NPC Daphrona. You'll first meet Daphrona in the Embars Ruins – Forgotten Temple level, where she explains the Netherworld and its leaking energy. After clearing the level, Daphrona moves to The Crevice, accessible in the Nether realm.
When you speak to Daphrona, you have the option to "Unleash Soulstones." Depending on the number of Soulstones you've collected, you can enhance Khazan in various ways. The primary options include boosting your Lacrima Gain, which aids in leveling up and stat improvements, or increasing the health recovery from using Netherworld Energy.
Additionally, there might be other valuable buffs like attack or recovery enhancements, all designed to give you an edge in facing Khazan's challenges. It's wise to revisit Daphrona regularly to see if you've accumulated enough Soulstones for another beneficial upgrade.
