Ymir’s Questline Overview

Ymir’s questline requires you to find the Finger Ruins’ places after getting the Ruins Map for each one from Ymir. After finding the Ruins area, you will have to find the Four Finger structure with a hanging bell inside it and then interact with the bell to sound it. You will have to do this three times in three different locations.

Ruins Map (1st) – Finger Ruins of Rhia located northeast of Cerulean Coast.

Ruins Map (2nd) – Finger Ruins of Dheo located east of the Hinterland in the Scaduview region.

Ruins Map (3rd) – Underneath the Cathedral of Manus Metyr.

After sounding all three bells, you will have to defeat Metyr, the Mother of Fingers boss, and then you will have to defeat Jolán and Ymir at the Cathedral to finish the quest.

Where to Find the Iris of Occultation and Getting the Sword of Night

The Iris of Occultation is found by killing an enemy at the Fort of Reprimand. The Fort of Reprimand is located south of Moorth Ruins Site of Grace. Head inside the fort and stick to the wall on the left to come across a hole. Drop down to the hole and defeat the enemy inside to get the Iris of Occultation.

After finishing the quest, you will see Jolán in the Cathedral on her last breath. As you speak with her, you will be able to make a choice of which rewards you wish to get. If you have picked up the Iris of Occultation, you will see the option for it, and selecting it will reward you with Sword of Night, a Katana weapon.
