Quest Rennie в Elden Ring - perhaps the longest and most difficult of all presented in the game. It is a full-fledged adventure that takes place in atmospheric locations and includes battles with several colorful bosses. Particularly impressive are the rewards for this quest, including a new ending to the game, as well as a variation of the legendary Moonlight Sword, without which no Souls project from FromSoftware can do.
In the questline that starts at the Temple of Ella and ends in Cathedral of Manus Celes, it's pretty easy to get confused, since not every step of its implementation is obvious. This guide will help you complete the Rennie quest and get Two-Handed Darkmoon (probably the best weapon in the game).
How to start Rennie's quest in Elden Ring
A long quest line starts with the first meeting with Rennie herself, which takes place in the early stages of the game. After the protagonist talks to Melina and acquires a trusty ghost steed named Flow, you need to head to the Temple of Elle at night. There, the Extinguished One will be waiting for Rennie.
After a short dialogue, during which she introduces herself as Rennes, the witch will give the hero Spirit Calling Bell - one of the most important items in the game, which is necessary to create temporary allies from the ashes.
In the later stages of the game, when the protagonist acquires at least medium equipment, you need to go at Kariya Manorwhich is located north of Raya Lucaria Academy. This is a rather dangerous location, which is full of tenacious soldiers and sorcerers who can quickly lower the health of the Extinguished One to zero. After clearing Kariya's estate on its top, the hero will have to fight the local boss - Royal Knight Loretta.
How to get to the Rennie Tower
Having defeated her, the Extinguished One needs to leave the estate into the opened passage in order to get into Three sisters areawhere three towers are located. These lands are guarded Adula, dragon of shining stones - you can fight him or completely ignore him. Gotta go straight to rennie tower, located between the other two. It is impossible to get lost at this stage, since the path to the rest of the “sisters” will be blocked at that time.
Renna confesses that her real name is Rennie and asks if the Extinguished One is ready to serve her. It depends on the further decision whether the quest will start or not. If the main character agrees to serve the sorceress Rennie, then a series of missions will begin with this. But even in case of refusal, at any time you can return to the already familiar tower and change your mind.
Rennie will ask the Extinguished One to retrieve a certain item for her, which is located in The Eternal City of Nokrone. The next dialogue depends on whether the protagonist has defeated General Radan. If not, then Rennie will send the protagonist to meet Blyde at the Siofre River.
Passage of Rennie's quest in Elden Ring
Siofr River - one of the largest underwater locations in Elden Ring. You can get there using the lift inside the well located nearby. from the small Tree of Erd in the Misty Forest. Blyde can be found at this location - the character is waiting for the Extinguished One near Lands of the Holy Horn. However, during a conversation with him, it turns out that the NPC has no idea where the entrance to Nokron is. However, Blyde will mention another follower of Rennie, the sorcerer Seluvis, who may know the right way.
Seluvis owns the south tower in the Three Sisters area. The dialogue with the sorcerer will be short, but informative. He, in his abrupt manner, will send the Extinguished One in search of Sorceress Sellen in the Graveyard.
It can be found right under the "Ruined Settlement Basemyont" blessing site, not far from Tower Bridge in Zamogilye. If the hero visits this location for the first time, then he will have to fight with pumpkinhead madman, which guards the passage leading to Sellene. Further, the sorceress will explain that the path to the Eternal City of Nokron can only be opened after victory over General Radan.
How to get to Nokron and where to find the Fingerslayer Blade
Further, it is recommended to talk with Blyde again, who will tell the hero about the battle festival in the castle of the Red Mane. This dialogue is needed in order to bypass two difficult mini-bosses in the fortress itself and go straight to the fight with Radan himself.
In this battle, the Extinguished One can die in one hit, so it is recommended to use special tactical tricks. After defeating Radan and reaching Nokron, you can get ashes of a false tear - one of the most useful items in the game.
Detailed articles about how to defeat Radan и get to Nokron can be found on our website.
In the far area of the underground city, there is a staircase leading to a building, inside of which you can find a large chest. It contains the quest Blade of the Fingerslayer - the item that Rennie asked to get.
How to get to the Holy Tower of Lyurnia and find the Mark of Cursing
Next, you need to return to Rennie in her tower and deliver the Blade of the Finger Killer to the sorceress. She will thank the Extinguished One for his faithful service and say that the mission is completed. As a reward, Rennie will give carian upside down statue. This is another important quest item - it serves as a key, without which it is impossible to get into Sacred Tower of Liurnia. It may seem that after this scene the questline will come to an end, but it is not - there is still a lot of interesting things ahead.
Now you need to go to eastern region of Liurnia, where is Carian Reading Room.
Already inside the tower you can find a pedestal with a globe, which will play its role a little later. A little further there is a staircase leading to an elevator that will take the Extinguished One straight to the next arena. This time he will need to defeat a dangerous sorcerer - Professor Miriam.
He can easily deal with the protagonist in just a couple of hits, so you need to act carefully, firing at Miriam from a respectful distance and hiding behind the railing. Defeating the boss will add a new type of enchantment to your arsenal. Now you can return to the already familiar globe at the entrance of the tower and apply the Carian inverted statue to itreceived from Rennie. A short cut-scene will play, making it clear that the tower has turned over. You need to go up the stairs again, which this time will lead not to the elevator, but to the passage.
On this path, the Extinguished One is waiting for several ordinary opponents, as well as the suddenly resurrected Professor Miriam. He needs to be sent to the next world again, for which the game will reward the hero with a new spell. Next, you need to follow along the ledge to the very end, and then jump to the platform located under it.
After a few jumps down the wooden beams and platforms, you need to stand on the pressure plate, which opens up another passage. It leads to an upside-down door, behind which is a bridge to Sacred Tower of Liurnia. A battle with a mini-boss awaits here, in which it is recommended to participate on horseback - this way it will be much easier to defeat the enemy. The reward for this will be Divine Skin Noble Armor Set. Now you can climb to the very top of the tower, where someone's remains lie. If you inspect them, the Extinguished One will receive the same Curse Mark, which unlocks the secret ending of Elden Ring.
How to get to Noxtella and find the Ring of the Dark Moon
At this stage of the quest, you can return to Rennie's tower to discover a new place of grace. The sorceress herself will disappear from the walls of the fortress by that time. After that, you need to go to the tower of Renna, located in the north of the Three Sisters area. The entrance to it will be unlocked, and at its very top, the Extinguished One will find teleport, leading to a previously inaccessible location - dungeon of the Main Stream of the Ansel River. This area is directly below Liurnia.
Not far from the place where the main character ended up, there are two stone coffins. One of them can be found Little Rennie doll. The protagonist will note that she radiates cold. At the next place of grace, you need to talk to the doll. At first, she will not react in any way to the hero's attempts, but sooner or later she will give up. In the course of communication, it will become clear that Rennie herself is in front of the Extinguished One, who has decided to take on the guise of a doll. There are quite a lot of dialogue options in this scene - the sorceress tells her backstory and motives in great detail. After a long conversation, Rennie will ask you to kill An ominous shadow.
Ahead of the hero is a relatively straight road to Noxtella. Sooner or later, he will reach an area that has taken on an ominous blood-red hue. It is here that the dangerous Sinister Shadow (aka Blyde's phantom) awaits the Extinguished One. When the hero emerges victorious from the fight, he will receive Abandoned Palace Key, which opens a locked chest in the academy library.
It's time to go to the library, where is Queen Rennala Full Moon. Using the key obtained earlier, the hero can open a locked chest, inside of which is hidden Ring of the Dark Moon. You can’t use it yet - this is another quest item that will come in handy a little later.
How to get through Lake Rot
Now you need to return to the location where the battle with Blyde's phantom took place and go down the lift. Extinguished will be in a new region with a telling name: Rot lake. It is highly recommended not to spend more than a few seconds in the lake, otherwise there is a high probability of catching Red Rot, which is many times more dangerous than ordinary poisoning and destroys the hero's health much faster. Therefore, it is very important to monitor the corresponding scale and not let it fill up.
There are several enemy soldiers in this location, but it is completely optional to fight them. You need to get to the far side of the lake and turn left, where there are several stone coffins. In one of them, you can take a break while a cut-scene is played in which the Extinguished One is heading to a new location.
Right behind the veil is an arena with another boss - Astel, Born of the Abyss. This is an extremely dangerous and tenacious opponent, the battle with which can drag on for a long time. Astel often uses powerful attacks all over the area and periodically soars over the arena, so it is advisable to have some kind of long-range weapon in your arsenal for this battle.
Having dealt with Astel, the Extinguished One (who should already have the Ring of the Dark Moon in his inventory) will be able to go through the opened passage at the end of the cave. If the door does not open, it is recommended to make sure that all the key steps indicated in this guide have been completed. Behind the door is an elevator that leads to the new region of Liurnia - to Moonlight Altar.
Where to find Rennie and get the Darkmoon Twohander
Ahead of the hero are several ordinary dragons, as well as an old acquaintance - Adula, dragon of shining stones. He will appear in this location only if the Extinguished already defeated him near Kariya's estate. Fighting all these opponents is not necessary at all (except for the sake of useful loot).
Gotta keep the path to Cathedral of Manus Celes, inside which you can see a hole leading down. You need to carefully go down into it, jumping along small ledges, and then move along the opened passage.
At the end of the path of the Extinguished One, a rather gloomy picture awaits: the defeated Monster Two Fingers and a lifeless Rennie sitting right in front of him. You need to press the interaction button with Rennie to trigger a cut-scene in which the protagonist will put on Ring of the Dark Moon on the witch's finger. After that, her lifeless body will disappear, and she will appear before the hero in an already familiar guise. Snow Witch. Rennie will thank the Extinguished One, wish him good luck on his journey, and finally disappear into thin air.
After a few seconds, a legendary sword will appear at this point - Two-Handed Darkmoon (aka Two-Handed Moonlight), which can be equipped on the main character. To use it, you need to have 16 points of strength, 11 points of dexterity and 38 points of intelligence. This sword inflicts not only physical, but also magical damage to enemies - it is especially effective against opponents vulnerable to frost attacks.
On this long-running quest comes to an end. Now the Extinguished One has the opportunity to fight Blyde, who is waiting for him at Rennie's tower. The reward for defeating a deranged former ally will be a set of Blyde's armor, as well as Royal two-hander.
At the very end of the game, after the fight with the last boss, the Extinguished One can use Curse Sign found in the Sacred Tower of Lyurnia. He will allow you to summon Rennie and open, perhaps, the best of all possible Elden Ring endings. Any spoilers would be a real crime, but we can say that this is a very worthy conclusion to both the story of Rennie and the whole adventure of the Extinguished One.

Hello. Will burning the Erd tree affect this ending?
cool I found her in a cave without all the quests and immediately put a ring on her lol
But what if the tower is closed by a barrier? I go up, and it says that it cannot be opened yet. The rest of the towers are exactly the same. What need to do? I met her at the fire at night, received the bell and agreed with her. Haven't seen her since then.
Hello!
The passage to the tower opens only after defeating the boss Loretta, the royal knight.
Yes, I defeated her, in the estate of Kariya which? She also blocks the way to the towers. Or is she not?
There is a dragon in the area after this knight. After I finished him somewhere to half of his health, he disappeared, and the passage to Rennie opened.
In case you got to the Altus Plateau, or a certain location to a friend, I'm not sure here, the entrance will open only after killing Radan.
