Kliff investigates an orphanage and a nearby church in the Demeniss region, searching for information about the Crowcaller's origins. The quest involves two puzzles: a button sequence in a crypt and a ring-rotation mechanism at the Pillar of Radiance.8899Walkthrough10101111Gather Information at the Orphanage12121313Navigate to the search area within the orphanage grounds. Look for a doorway on the north side of the courtyard and interact with it. A cutscene plays where a female NPC provides backstory about the church and the events connected to the Crowcaller.14141515Obtain the Church's Relic16161717Travel south from the orphanage to reach the church. Go around the back of the building to find the crypt entrance.

Target it with L1 / LB and interact with Square / X. This starts the second puzzle.30303131Ring Rotation Puzzle32323333The Pillar of Radiance displays a set of concentric rings that you need to rotate to form an eye symbol. Use the directional inputs to select which ring to move, and left/right to rotate each ring. This puzzle works similarly to the mechanism in the Gate to the Otherworld quest from Chapter 4. Align all rings so the eye shape is complete to finish the puzzle.34343535Tips36363737The crypt puzzle order is always Top-left, Bottom-right, Bottom-left, Top-right. There is no randomization between playthroughs.If you completed the Gate to the Otherworld puzzle in Chapter 4, the ring rotation mechanic will feel familiar. The concept is the same, just with a different target shape.Make sure to grab the Dagger of Radiance before leaving the crypt. You need it for the pillar interaction.
