Things take a bit of a turn once you finish your business there. After you talk to him again, by the time you finally return to his daughter, you find that you're already too late, she is dead with her father mourning her corpse. The saddest part of this quest isn't this, but the fate of the grief-stricken father you find later, crazed, bloodthirsty, and in a shack filled with... rotting m
The name "The Lands Between" likely refers to the setting being between life and death as when you die, you simply return to the erdtree. The shattering of the Elden Ring represents the first death of a deity. Essentially, the purpose of Fia, The Prince of Death, and the Cursemark of Death is to allow death to happen normally. If such a thing was allowed to happen, there would likely be much fewer lingering souls and undead creatures shambling about, cursing their existe
If the player should choose to work with him , he will give you what is basically a mind control potion, telling you to feed it to the adopted daughter of his hated rival Gideon Ofnir, the very same one you are already likely acquainted with. Sound suspicious? Well, that's only the tip of the iceberg because if you manage to find his secret laboratory where he keeps his "creations", that opens up a whole new can of wo
As we all know, lore and characters are some of the most defining parts of any From Software game. Every soul you meet has more than a few skeletons in their closet, and you are sure to find a couple more of them laying about elsewhere. Elden Ring's setting, the Lands Between, has a great number of characters with stories to tell or stories that tell of the tales of a character. They'll often take you from one end of the earth to the other just to find the missing piece of someone's puzzling p
Again, both Burial Watchdog bosses employ this move. Despite the move’s unnatural movement, it’s perhaps one of the easier moves to dodge. They stand up on their hind legs and walk toward you. You can sprint away, but due to the size of the room, it’s probably better to face this one head-on. At the last moment, they will raise their sword/staff a fraction higher – this is your queue to dodge. They will quickly slam their weapon down on the ground. If you dodge this right, their recovery after the move provides you with the opportunity to get a few attacks

The hallway dumps out into a Scarlet Rot quagmire, full of skeletal slimes that drop from the ceiling, plus some pot-throwing Imps on the upper level, so it's best to make quick work of this room. Run through and collect the Aeonian Butterfly, Grave Glovewort [3] , Grave Violet, and Grave Glovewort [5] . Once you’ve collected these four items, head back to the elevator r
He'll task you with an assassination, just like the regular assassination quests. However, while those targets are more or less just tarnished minding their own business, Patches' target is a particularly helpful Tarnished that might have helped you out on a few bosses. Later on, you'll find him again, only to give you an item and a bit of a cliffhanger ending that gives you more questions than answ

Abstractly, one could call them a league of traitorous snakes who make it their goal to kill their kind. As you could expect, Patches is a member of this organization, even offering a quest of his own as you begin completing quests h
Considering just how fleshed out Ranni's quest line is compared to others, one could question whether or not it truly would count as a side quest. However, with all the content available, this turns out to be an easy contender for the best side quest in the g
The next room to the south contains a switch at the far end, but don’t be too hasty; there are two Imps in this room . The first is just to your right when you enter, ready to attack. The second one is hanging from the ceiling in the center of the room, likely just out of sight. Be re
Golden Order Incantations, in the lore of Elden Ring , are a school of magic based on scientifically analyzing the metaphysical laws that make the divine miracles of the Erdtree and Golden Order possible. As their names and associations would imply, these Incantations frequently manifest as bright, golden light taking various forms. Miquella, Elden Ring 's eternally youthful and villainous Demigod , studied Golden Order Fundamentalism as a potential way to cure his sister Malenia's Scarlet Rot affliction, while the mute and mummified Goldmask uses this scholarly school of magic to identify the flaws in the original Golden Order and craft a new Elden Ring maps Ring that brings justice to
