The spirit of Dame Marcelle Stenric shows you the sword
While exploring the Tribulation Crypt, I encountered a ghost that beckoned me deeper into the tomb. The ghost led me to an ancient sword engraved with the following message: "Marcelle Stenric of Shornhelm[sic]


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Head to the Tribulation Crypt and follow a ghostly knight.
  2. Examine the sword.
  3. Find a Stenric descendant in Shornhelm and talk to them.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

While exploring the Tribulation Crypt, you may notice the ghost of a Breton woman. She beckons you to follow her deeper into the crypt, where you eventually find an ancient sword that she wants you to interact with:

<The ghost points at an ancient sword embedded in the table. An engraving adorns the side of the blade, close to the hilt.>
<Examine the engraving on the blade.>
<The engraving reads: "Marcelle Stenric of Shornhelm".>
<Take the sword.>

Now that you have the sword that used to belong to Dame Marcelle, you will want to travel to Shornhelm to try and find a living relative to deliver it to. Fortunately, the search proves to be a fruitful one, as the ghost of Marcelle will point you to the relative that she wants you to present her sword to, Trierre Stenric, almost as soon as you enter the city. Speak to the man, who is pleasantly surprised by the return of this long-lost heirloom into his family's possession, to finish the quest and to receive some gold for your efforts:

"Hello, friend. Do you need directions to the inn?"
I've come a long way to find a member of the Stenric family.
"Well, your journey has been successful. Stenric blood certainly flows through my veins."
I found this sword in a crypt near Sanguine Barrows.
"Marcelle Stenric? That was my great-grandmother's name! Is that really her sword?
I grew up listening to stories of Dame Marcelle's exploits. She was quite the warrior, if you believe the tales."
I think she wants you to have her sword.
"This is amazing! Our family used to be much more prominent back in my great-grandmother's day. Maybe her sword will turn our fortunes around. Maybe.
Anyway, thank you so much for bringing this to me."

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
