Collect loot like Radiant Lifegem and Twinkling Twilight in Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin. Learn how to get a key from a petrified enemy.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After collecting loot, go up the stairs on the far left-hand side of the fog.
  2. 2
    Enter the moss-covered ruin and go up the first ramp.
  3. 3
    Carry on up the next ramp until you reach a platform.
  4. 4
    Walk to the end of that platform to loot a Radiant Lifegem.
  5. 5
    Make your way back down the previous ramp and light the bonfire near where you entered.
  6. 6
    Carry on towards the end of the platform, then drop down onto the path below when you come to a gap on your right.
  7. 7
    Time your jump to roll through the window and into the dark room.
  8. 8
    Take the path to your left, then go into the room on your right when you reach the end.
  9. 9
    Defeat the enemies inside, one of whom will attack from the rear.
  10. 10
    Grab the item to obtain a Twinkling Twilight.
  11. 11
    Go through the door at the end of this tiny room to loot a handful of Firebombs and a Soul of a Brave Warrior.
  12. 12
    Make your way back outside and head over the bridge until you get back onto the main platform.
  13. 13
    Drop down onto the same path as before but do not go through the window.
  14. 14
    Turn right and go up the hill until you reach a petrified enemy.
  15. 15
    Warning: If you still have a Fragrant Branch of Yore, reverse the petrification and kill the enemy to claim a key that will come in useful later.
  16. 16
    Head back to the bonfire platform and go to the very end of it, hugging the wall to your left as you pass beneath the chest.
Tips
  • Be mindful of enemies attacking from the rear in the dark room.
  • The key obtained from the petrified enemy is useful later in the game.
  • Ensure you have a Fragrant Branch of Yore before attempting to un-petrify the enemy.
