Elden Ring: How to Complete Hyetta's Quest
Completing Hyetta's story not only adds depth to the lore but also rewards you with significant Elden Ring Items and insights into the world's chaotic forces. Along the way, you'll spend plenty of Elden Ring Runes overcoming powerful enemies and exploring dangerous areas.
Below is a full breakdown of Hyetta's journey and how you can complete her quest.
Who Is Hyetta
Hyetta is a blind NPC you can meet after finishing Irina's questline in the Weeping Peninsula. She appears in multiple locations across Liurnia of the Lakes, always requesting Shabriri Grapes, which she believes connect her to the "distant light." As you assist her, the true nature of her quest, and the disturbing truth about the grapes, begins to unravel.
Step 1: Meet Hyetta at Lake-Facing Cliffs
After speaking with Irina and delivering her letter (or witnessing her fate), rest at the Lake-Facing Cliffs Site of Grace in Liurnia. Hyetta will appear here, standing near the cliffs.
She introduces herself and requests a Shabriri Grape. If you have one in your inventory, you can give it to her. In return, she gives you the "As You Wish" gesture. While the reward is minor, this interaction initiates her questline.
Where to Get Shabriri Grapes:
You can find Shabriri Grapes in various places throughout Liurnia. One is located in the Purified Ruins, and another is dropped by Edgar the Revenger (from Irina's questline), tying the two narratives together. These are key Elden Ring Items essential to Hyetta's progression.
Step 2: Find Hyetta at the Purified Ruins
Next, you'll find Hyetta west of the Purified Ruins, standing near the water's edge and again asking for a Shabriri Grape. This time, she offers no reward, only expressing her deepening connection to the strange light she follows.
Note: If Hyetta doesn't appear here, make sure you've visited Irina's dead body near the Weeping Peninsula, as this can trigger her progression.
Step 3: North of Gate Town Bridge
Hyetta's next location is just north of the Gate Town Bridge, still in Liurnia. She will request a third Shabriri Grape. However, this time, she becomes suspicious and asks what the grapes truly are.
When prompted, choose to tell her the truth, that the grapes are human eyes, corrupted by the Frenzied Flame. Hyetta reacts with horror, but continues her pursuit, unable to resist the pull of the "light."
You must exhaust her dialogue here. If you don't, she won't move to the next phase of the quest.
Step 4: Bellum Church
Hyetta's penultimate location is the Bellum Church, still in Liurnia. This time, she asks for a Fingerprint Grape, a rarer and even more grotesque version of the Shabriri Grape. It is dropped by Festering Fingerprint Vyke, who invades you near the Church of Inhibition, a difficult area plagued by madness and powerful foes.
Defeating Vyke rewards you with the Fingerprint Grape, a unique and disturbing Elden Ring Item essential to completing Hyetta's quest. Deliver the grape to her, and she will quietly thank you and disappear.
Step 5: Frenzied Flame Proscription
The final chapter of Hyetta's quest takes place beneath the Royal Capital of Leyndell, in the Frenzied Flame Proscription. To reach it, you must descend the hidden pathways beneath the Subterranean Shunning Grounds and open the sealed door behind Mohg's arena. This requires removing your armor to be embraced by the Three Fingers.
After receiving the Frenzied Flame, return to Hyetta in the Proscription chamber. She will act as a stand-in Finger Maiden, accepting your new path and preparing you to become the Lord of Chaos. Upon completing her dialogue, she bursts into flame and leaves behind two valuable Elden Ring Items:
Frenzied Flame Seal – A sacred seal that boosts Frenzied Flame Incantations.
Frenzyflame Stones (x5) – Consumables that unleash madness-based area-of-effect attacks.
Warning
Important: Accepting the Frenzied Flame will lock you out of all other endings, including the Age of Fracture and Age of Stars, unless you later use Miquella's Needle at Dragonlord Placidusax's arena in Crumbling Farum Azula. This item permanently removes the Flame's influence but requires careful preparation and timing.
Final Thoughts
Hyetta's quest in Elden Ring is a quiet, methodical descent into cosmic horror. What begins as an innocent journey of faith turns into a tale of obsession, loss of identity, and ultimate sacrifice. Helping Hyetta is not just a path to the Frenzied Flame ending, it's a moral crossroad, forcing you to consider the cost of following destiny, no matter where it leads.
Along the way, you'll need to battle powerful foes, gather obscure Elden Ring Items, and spend thousands of Elden Ring Runes strengthening your build to survive the madness. But for those drawn to the more twisted lore of the Lands Between, this questline offers one of the most memorable stories in the game.
