How to Unlock Green Color in Disappeared Dolls Quest Genshin Impact 5.8 (2026)
Have you been painting everything with just the basic colors in Genshin Impact 5.8? I know the feeling! When I first encountered the adorable Asha creatures in the Easybreeze Holiday Resort, I was frustrated to find that some of my favorite colors were locked behind mysterious requirements. The green color, in particular, caught my eye – and if you’re here, you’re probably wondering how to unlock it too.
The good news? Unlocking the green Asha color is actually quite simple once you know where to look. You’ll need to complete the Disappeared Dolls quest by helping an NPC named Kanei find his missing Koholosaur dolls. In this comprehensive guide, I’ll walk you through every step of the quest, share the exact locations of all three dolls, and provide some pro tips that even veteran players might have missed.

What Are Asha Paint Colors?
Before we dive into the quest, let me quickly explain what Asha paint colors are for those new to the 5.8 update. Asha are special Monetoo creatures exclusive to the Easybreeze Holiday Resort that you can indwell (similar to Saurians). These cheerful beings have a passion for painting and can shoot colorful paintballs to decorate various surfaces, solve puzzles, and complete challenges throughout the resort.
While four colors (red, yellow, blue, and gray/invisicolor) are available from the start, three additional colors require completing specific quests:
- Orange: Complete the Colorfall Cliffs challenge in Sunspray Summer Resort
- Green: Complete the Disappeared Dolls quest (what we’re covering today!)
- Purple: Complete the Traces of Chroma World Quest
How to Start the Disappeared Dolls Quest in Genshin Impact?
Finding Kanei in Easybreeze Market
To begin your journey toward unlocking the green color, you’ll first need to locate Kanei in the Easybreeze Market. Here’s the step-by-step process:
- Teleport to the Main Street waypoint in Easybreeze Market
- Head northeast from the waypoint
- Look for Kanei standing near a locked Exquisite Chest by some stairs
- Talk to Kanei to trigger the quest
Important Note: This quest doesn’t have a quest marker on your map, so you’ll need to actively search for Kanei and interact with him to start the quest. He has an event icon above his head, making him easier to spot from a distance.
Quest Background
When you speak with Kanei, he’ll explain that his apprentice Zhaka has gone missing along with some important Koholosaur dolls. These dolls are essential for his work, and he needs your help to find and paint them. Interestingly, Zhaka and other Ashas were held hostage by bandits in the Colorfall Cave, but this backstory doesn’t affect the quest completion.
Complete Walkthrough: Finding All Three Koholosaur Dolls
Now comes the fun part – finding and painting the dolls! The quest area is located just ahead of where you meet Kanei. Before you start, make sure to indwell an Asha by interacting with the spiritsconce nearby.
First Koholosaur Doll Location
The first doll is the easiest to find and paint:
- Go past the stairs from Kanei’s location
- Look to your left at the first pool area
- Find the doll half-submerged in the miniature pool
- Indwell an Asha if you haven’t already
- Paint the doll with any color of your choice
This doll sits on a slightly raised platform with an Asha looking directly at it, making it hard to miss.
Second Koholosaur Doll Location
The second doll requires a bit more creativity:
- Head up the stairs from the first doll’s location
- Look to your right to find an Asha shooting colorless paint at a cannon
- Indwell the Asha that’s already there
- Paint the cannon with any color (not the water directly)
- The cannon will then paint the water, which colors the doll underneath
Pro Tip: Many players get confused here and try to paint the doll directly. Remember, you need to paint the cannon first, which will then color the water and automatically paint the doll beneath the mini waterfall!
Third Koholosaur Doll Location
The final doll requires some vertical exploration:
- From the second doll’s location, look at the building to the left
- Climb to the top of the purple-painted, cat-shaped building
- Look for a purple star grapple point to help you reach the top
- Find the doll at the very top of the building
- Paint it with any color to complete the set
Navigation Tip: If you’re having trouble finding the way up, use your Asha’s grappling ability on the purple star markers around the building.
Completing the Quest and Claiming Rewards
Once you’ve successfully painted all three Koholosaur dolls, something magical happens:
- You’ll be automatically teleported back to Kanei
- A short dialogue will play
- The Exquisite Chest next to him will unlock
- The Green Asha Color will be added to your palette
- You’ll receive the Asha’s Rainbow of Gravity achievement (if you’ve unlocked all colors)

Tips and Tricks for Asha Painting
Having spent hours exploring with Asha, here are my top tips for mastering the painting mechanics:
Movement and Exploration
- Hover indefinitely by holding jump and firing paintballs
- Walk on water without consuming Phlogiston
- Grapple to purple stars for quick traversal
- Sprint using Phlogiston for faster movement
Painting Strategies
- Use Elemental Sight to highlight paintable surfaces
- Invisicolor erases mistakes – perfect for fixing wrong colors
- Paint meter refills automatically over time
- Aim mode (hold attack button) for precise painting
Common Issues and Solutions
“I Can’t Find Kanei!”
Kanei doesn’t appear on the map with a quest marker. Use the main street teleport waypoint in Easybreeze Market and head northeast. Look for an NPC with an event icon above his head near some stairs.
“The Third Doll Won’t Get Painted!”
Remember, for the doll under the waterfall, you must paint the cannon above it, not the doll directly. The cannon will then color the water, which paints the doll.
“My Colors Won’t Switch!”
Make sure you’re using the correct button for your platform. If playing on mobile and can’t find the button, check your HUD settings to ensure it’s not hidden.
The Lore Behind Asha and Paint Colors
For those interested in the deeper story, the Asha have a fascinating background. These Monetoo appeared mysteriously when Mare Jivari disappeared 20 years ago. Their name has dual meanings: “benevolent soul” and “ashes” – a reference to those who perished in Mare Jivari.
The green color specifically represents nature and growth, fitting perfectly with the resort’s theme of renewal and celebration. Some theorize that each color represents a different aspect of the souls trapped in Mare Jivari, with green symbolizing hope and new beginnings.
