How to Encounter the Bell Bearing Hunter
To face the Bell Bearing Hunter, purchase at least one Ash of War from Knight Bernahl. Then, rest at the nearby Site of Grace until nightfall. Check inside the shack; if Knight Bernahl is present, interact with the Site of Grace again (without resting) and then check the shack. Once he is gone, the Bell Bearing Hunter will appear inside.
The Bell Bearing Hunter is a slow-moving boss with occasional dash attacks. It can conjure its sword for ranged attacks. Spirit Ashes cannot be used in this fight. The boss is weak to lightning and piercing damage. After its three-attack sword combo, you can counter with your own ranged attack.
Defeating the Bell Bearing Hunter rewards the Bone Peddler’s Bell Bearing, which allows the Twin Maiden Husks to sell Thin Animal Bones and Hefty Beast Bones.
How to Find the Strength-knot Crystal Tear
Head northwest from the Warmaster's Shack up a hill where a Troll wielding a sword patrols. Defeat the Troll, then loot an offering bowl behind it to find the Strength-knot Crystal Tear.
How to Find and Defeat Recusant Henricus
From the Warmaster's Shack, head north along a road until you reach a circular keep at a cliff's edge. Outside this keep, you will be invaded by Recusant Henricus. Defeat him to obtain the Hammer Talisman and a Furlcalling Finger Remedy.
How to Find the Ash of War: Golden Vow and the Lance
Southeast of the circular keep, beyond the elevated highway, are ruined square buildings. Atop one of these ruins, near an undead camp, you can find a corpse with the Lance. Southeast of these ruins, on the cliffs overlooking the Deathtouched Catacombs, a mounted Godrick Knight patrols and drops the Ash of War: Golden Vow upon defeat.
