11Overview22The Witch of Wisdom is a faction quest associated with the Witches faction in the Duchy of Hernand. The quest involves seeking out a witch known for her wisdom. The Witches are one of several factions operating in the Hernand region, and their quests tend to involve mystical or arcane elements.44Quest Giver66The Witch of Wisdom is Elowen, a mysterious figure who lives in a house in the Witchwoods area of the Hernand region. To find her, players must first visit a marked house in the Alfonso Estate and speak with Tanya inside. This encounter may require climbing through a window to gain entry. After rescuing the tied-up woman and dealing with bandits, Elowen reveals herself and marks her house on the player's map.99How to Unlock1111Visit the marked house in Alfonso Estate and speak with TanyaDeal with the bandits encountered during the first visitTravel to Elowen's house in the Witchwoods, northwest of Tanya's locationSpeak with Elowen to initiate the quest and gain access to her Abyss Gear slotting services1313Objectives1515Elowen asks Kliff to cleanse four Sanctums spread across Pywel.
