How To Start Volcano Manor Questline?
When you reach Volcano Manor, the first NPC you should talk to is Lady Tanith. Lady Tanith asks you if you would like to join Volcano Manor. If you decide to join Volcano Manor, you will get an item called Drawing-Room Key so you can walk around the castle. After you progress through the Quest, you should get the Letter from Volcano Manor lying on the table in one of the rooms you entered. After receiving the letter, you can further the quest by talking to Lady Tanith again.
There will be several letters requiring you to hunt down other Tarnished along the questline.
Here are the steps to this questline:
- Defeat Old Knight Istvan
- Defeat Rileigh the Idle
- Receive Red Letter and Fight Bernahl
- Talk to Lady Lanith and teleport to Rykard's room
- Defeat Rykard, Lord of Blashphemy
Defeat Old Knight Istvan
In the Letter from Volcano Manor, you are asked to defeat the Old Knight Istvan. You can find him at the marked spot on your map near Stormhill Shack. When you reach the marked point, you will find an invasion marker for you to fight the Old Knight Istvan. After defeating him, you need to go back to Volcano Manor and talk to Lady Tanith to advance the quest.
Defeat Rileigh the Idle
After returning to Volcano Manor and talking to NPCs, you will gain access to several possibilities. For example, Knight Bernahl will start selling you ash of wars. You can get the second Letter from Volcano Manor from the same place where you got the previous letter. Once you get it, you'll have to fight Rileight the Idle. You can find Rileight the Idle in the Altus Plateau area. After defeating him, you need to go back to Volcano Manor and talk to Lady Tanith.
Red Letter
To advance the quest, you need to get the Red Letter from the location where you got the previous letters. At this point in the quest, you can interact with Bernahl and fight him. If you defeat him, you will get his armor set. After receiving the Red Letter, you must speak to Lady Tanith. She will teleport you to an area to meet the lord of the castle.
Defeat Rykard, Lord of Blashphemy
You will start fighting with a boss named God-Devouring Serpent beyond the area you are teleporting to. When you defeat it, you will have to fight the main boss, Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy. After defeating Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy, you will get Rykard's Great Rune and Remembrance of Blasphemous. After defeating him, we recommend that you return to Volcano Manor and talk to all NPCs.
