One such obtuse NPC is called Latenna, and can be found at the Slumbering Wolf’s Shack in Liurnia of the Lakes, resting on the ground beside the eponymous wolf. Speaking about a mysterious medallion, players may wonder how to obtain the item, but are offered no obvious solution. This guide will help players complete Latenna’s quest on their journey to reclaim the shattered shards of the Elden Ring.

Where to Find Slumbering Wolf’s Shack

In order to reach Latenna, players must first find the Slumbering Wolf’s Shack in Liurnia of the Lakes, one of the earlier areas in the game. To get here, they need to go through the Lakeside Crystal Cave, found on the cliffs just northwest of the ‘Liurnia Lake Shore’ Site of Grace, west-southwest of Laskyar Ruins, and south of the ‘Scenic Isle’ Site of Grace.

Dropping down onto the dimly lit ledges in the central pit and fighting their way through Demi-Human mobs, players will eventually face the Bloodhound Knight and reveal a passage leading out to the Shack and Latenna.

After resting at the Site of Grace here, players must venture to a nearby location to meet a character called Albus and continue Latenna’s questline.

Where to Find Albus and Begin Latenna’s Questline

Albus can be found in the Village of the Albinaurics in the swamplands to the northeast of the Shack. The village sits below a plateau only reachable through Ranni the Witch’s questline. Luckily, players do not have to complete any quests to reach the Village.

Avoiding the giant crabs, head up a ramp to the Village and find the Site of Grace in a shack by a Well and a forlorn spirit.

From this Grace, head east up another ramp leading to a Perfumer beneath a crooked tree. After dealing with him, keep heading forward until reaching a sarcophagus and a pot in an alcove - hit the pot and Albus will be released.

Exhausting his dialogue, he will ask the player to take the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Right) to Latenna which will, when combined with the left half, unlock the Grand Lift of Rold leading to a secret area.

Note that taking the Medallion will trigger a fight with Ensha at the Roundtable Hold the next time the player travels there.

Next, take the Medallion back to Latenna at the Slumbering Wolf’s Shack and she will abandon her wolf to join the player on their journey. She will give the Tarnished her Spirit Ashes, allowing them to summon her at the cost of 74 FP, and tell them they can find the other half of the Medallion at Castle Sol in the north.

Finding Haligtree Secret Medallion (Left) in Castle Sol

Latenna’s questline can be continued much later in the game when the player reaches the level 90 area ‘The Mountaintop of the Giants’ after making their way through Leyndell Royal Capital.

Latenna’s spirit will inform the player that they are nearing Castle Sol, which can be found north-northwest of the Mountaintop Minor Erdtree, north of the Ancient Snow Valley Ruins Site of Grace, and west of the ‘Freezing Lake’ Site of Grace.

After resting at the ‘Castle Sol Main Gate’ Site of Grace, follow the path through the courtyard and up the wooden stairs around to the left. Continue through the Castle until coming across the ‘Church of the Eclipse’ Site of Grace in an alcove to the left.

After resting, head back out the archway and to the left, through the church and to the left again. Keep going up through a dimly lit tower with cages hanging from the roof and head out towards the Commander Niall boss fight.

Upon defeating him and his two knights, head further up and take the elevator on the right. Ahead, after a flight of stairs, players will be able to find Haligtree Secret Medallion (Right) next to another spirit looking out to the sea.

Completing Latenna’s Questline

After claiming both halves of the Secret Medallion, head back to the Grand Lift of Rold and, instead of lifting the Rold Medallion given to the player by Melina, switch actions to lift the Secret Medallion instead. This will reveal the path to Haligtree and the Consecrated Snowfield beyond.

Once reaching the Apostate Derelict to the northwest of Ordina, Liturgical Town, Latenna can be summoned at the foot of the giant Albinauric. After doing so, speak with her to be rewarded with a Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone, which allows players to fully upgrade their rarer weapons to +10.

Elden Ring is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
