Locations and access

Balcony above Manor Lower Level

Caria Manor · Upper chapel balcony

Starting Site of Grace: Royal Moongazing Grounds

  1. Reach the western Liurnia road and follow it north through Kingsrealm Ruins. Strike the illusory wall blocking the road at the northern end, then continue past Iji at Road to the Manor.
  2. Ride toward the large manor while avoiding the magical strikes falling along the approach. Activate Main Caria Manor Gate grace at the entrance.
  3. Inside, follow the courtyard path northwest toward the building in the far corner. Fingercreepers hide among the plants and beneath the ground; do not stop on a buried hand.
  4. Enter the building with the seated spirit and climb its stairs to Manor Lower Level grace.
  5. Take the elevated walkways east and continue straight along the main route at the first junction. Spectral soldiers appear along the bridges. Reach the far building and take its lift up to Manor Upper Level.
  6. Leave the upper grace, pass the wolves in the garden and climb the main stone stairway toward the Troll Knight and sorcerers.
  7. Continue up the stairs beyond the troll and Pages to the large circular courtyard. Defeat Royal Knight Loretta, then activate Royal Moongazing Grounds grace.
  8. Leave Loretta's arena through the gate into Three Sisters. Turn left and follow the manor's outside wall south and southwest to the cliff overlooking its roofs.
  9. Drop onto the square stone roof below. From its southwestern edge, drop onto the wooden platform, then use the next wooden platform and stone ledge to reach the lower roof.
  10. Find the open roof hatch and climb down its ladder. Pidia is on the upper balcony above the Manor Lower Level grace.

Quest steps

Quest steps can include different outcomes. Read the branch, conditions and cutoffs before making a choice.

  1. Reach the balcony

    Branch: Main quest

    Defeat Royal Knight Loretta and leave into Three Sisters. Follow the outer manor wall toward the southern cliff and descend onto the roofs and wooden platforms.

  2. Open his shop

    Branch: Main quest

    Use the open roof hatch and ladder to the balcony. Speak twice to open the shop before progressing Ranni’s Fingerslayer handover if you want to meet him alive.

  3. Return after Seluvis’s end

    Branch: Main quest

    After Ranni’s blade handover or the Amber Draught betrayal, return along the same roof route. His final state leaves a Bell Bearing and a puppet reward.

  4. Check the puppet outcome

    Branch: Potion-dependent reward

    His usual final puppet is Dolores the Sleeping Arrow. If Seluvis’s Potion was given to Nepheli, the reward changes to Nepheli Loux Puppet.

Notes

  • The balcony is above Manor Lower Level, but the normal route to it starts outside the manor in Three Sisters.
  • Drop onto the next roof or wooden platform in stages. Jumping from the cliff straight to the floor below is unsafe.
  • The map he sells points toward Amber Starlight. Buying it is separate from physically picking up the amber item.
  • His limited Larval Tear and Ritual Pot do not become unlimited when the shop transfers.
  • The puppet outcome depends on whether Nepheli received Seluvis’s Potion. Giving the potion to Gideon does not turn Nepheli into the reward.
