Beginning the Quest

  • Meet Ranni: Find Ranni in the Three Sisters area, specifically in Ranni's Rise. This area becomes accessible after defeating Royal Knight Loretta at Caria Manor.
  • Pledge Allegiance: Agree to serve Ranni when you meet her. If she isn't present, clear Caria Manor and check again.

Key Steps and Locations

Finding Blaidd

  • Nokron, Eternal City: Ranni will ask you to assist Blaidd in finding Nokron. Speak to Blaidd in the Siofra River area. He's searching for an entrance but is stuck.
  • Speak to Seluvis: Return to Ranni's Rise and speak with Seluvis, who will direct you to Sorcerer Sellen.
  • Sorcerer Sellen: Find Sellen in Witchbane Ruins, located in the Weeping Peninsula. She will tell you about Starscourge Radahn.

Defeating Radahn

  • Redmane Castle: Participate in the Radahn Festival at Redmane Castle in Caelid. Defeat Starscourge Radahn. Note: Progressing too far in the main story might require you to exhaust the dialogues of the NPC Jerren at Redmane Castle.

Accessing Nokron

  • Nokron Impact Site: After defeating Radahn, a star will fall, opening a massive crater leading to Nokron, Eternal City. This is located in Limgrave, west of Fort Haight.
  • The Fingerslayer Blade: Navigate through Nokron to find the Fingerslayer Blade. This is a crucial item for Ranni.

Returning to Ranni

Giving the Fingerslayer Blade

  • Ranni's Rise: Return to Ranni and give her the Fingerslayer Blade. She will reward you with the Carian Inverted Statue.

Carian Study Hall

  • Carian Study Hall: Use the Carian Inverted Statue at the entrance of the Carian Study Hall, located east of Liurnia of the Lakes. This inverts the tower, allowing you to explore it from a different perspective.
  • Preceptor Miriam: Defeat Preceptor Miriam twice within the inverted Study Hall.
  • Divine Tower of Liurnia: At the top, find the Cursemark of Death on a corpse.

Finding the Miniature Ranni Doll

  • Ainsel River Main: Use the teleport at Renna's Rise (north of Ranni's Rise, accessible after giving Ranni the Fingerslayer Blade) to reach Ainsel River Main.
  • Miniature Ranni: Find the Miniature Ranni doll in a coffin.

Speaking with the Doll

  • Rest at a Site of Grace: Rest multiple times at the Ainsel River Main Site of Grace and select the option to talk to the Miniature Ranni. She will eventually speak.
  • Guiding Ranni: Ranni will task you with defeating Baleful Shadow.

Defeating Baleful Shadow

  • Lake of Rot: Continue through Ainsel River to the Lake of Rot. Find and defeat the Baleful Shadow in this area. This will grant you the Discarded Palace Key.

Unlocking the Raya Lucarian Grand Library

  • Raya Lucarian Grand Library: Use the Discarded Palace Key to open the chest in the Raya Lucarian Grand Library, where you fought Rennala. Inside, you'll find the Dark Moon Ring.

Final Steps

  • Cathedral of Manus Celes: Return to the Lake of Rot and traverse the Grand Cloister to reach the Cathedral of Manus Celes.
  • Ranni's Fate: Use the Dark Moon Ring on Ranni. This triggers the final cutscene and sets the stage for the Age of Stars ending.

Rewards and Outcomes

  • Dark Moon Greatsword: A powerful weapon obtained during the questline. To get it, after using the Dark Moon Ring on Ranni at the Cathedral of Manus Celes, retrieve the Dark Moon Greatsword from where Ranni was.
  • Age of Stars Ending: Unlock a unique ending to Elden Ring, influenced by Ranni's choices.
