Quest preparation

Game data

Items you need to hand in or show during the quest, and the quickest known ways to get them. Items given to you by NPCs during the quest are not listed.

1×

Moonwax Candle (consumed) Make it: Binding ritual (Witchcraft 8).

1×

Spectral Ember (consumed) Make it: Binding ritual (Witchcraft 18).

1×

Spirit Ash (consumed) Make it: Binding ritual (Witchcraft 12); Drop: Grave Wight (1/5) and 2 more.

The three offerings can be handed over on separate visits, in any order.

The Keeper lends 90 seconds of Spectral Sight once, when the conversation ends.

Unlocks the Spectral Sight ritual: 90 seconds of the existing Spectral Sight at any ordinary circle (never with a Portable Ritual Kit). It never shortens a longer sight and is refused, free, while more than 60 seconds remain.

Three offerings. You can hand them over on separate visits, in any order:
- Something that has burned: Spirit Ash (crafted at Witchcraft 12 from a Witch's Candle and a Dried Herb Bundle).
- Something that burns cold: a Spectral Ember (crafted at Witchcraft 18 from 2 Spirit Ash and a Witch's Candle).
- Something that holds moonlight: a Moonwax Candle (crafted at Witchcraft 8).

None of them needs Spectral Sight to gather. Also discover an Old Circle: north-east of Emelie's cottage at (74, 40) in the North Wilderness, or in the far west of Southfield Farms at (5, 25). Walking up to one is enough.
