Locations and access

Stream outside Murkwater Cave

Limgrave · Encounter

Starting Site of Grace: Agheel Lake North

  1. Start at Agheel Lake's northern shore and follow the stream north beneath the road bridge. Stay in the ravine rather than looking for a path along the upper cliffs.
  2. Continue toward Murkwater Cave in the western wall. Bloody Finger Nerijus invades in the stream outside and forces you off Torrent.
  3. Keep enough space to avoid his rapid dagger attacks and blood projectiles. Yura can arrive after a short delay to help, so surviving the opening gives you time for that assistance.
  4. Defeat Nerijus to receive Reduvia directly. You do not need to enter Murkwater Cave, fight Patches or kill Yura for the reward.
  5. The invader is a one-time encounter for this journey. Resting does not turn him into a repeatable farm for a second Reduvia.

Notes

  • Follow the stream inside the ravine rather than searching on the cliffs above.
  • Keep away from the rapid dagger chain and blood projectiles while waiting for Yura.
  • You do not need to enter Murkwater Cave or fight Patches for Reduvia.
  • Continue north after the fight to speak to Yura beneath the bridge.
  • This is a scripted NPC invasion that works offline, not a random player encounter.
