Find War Counsellor Iji in elden ring, learn his quest steps, and collect Iji's Bell Bearing and Mirrorhelm after completing Ranni's and Blaidd's quests.
You will first encounter the giant known as Smithing Master Iji when heading towards Caria Manor. Pass through the Kingsrealm Ruins in western Liurnia and strike a wall in the northwest to find the Road to the Manor Site of Grace. Iji sits nearby and offers blacksmithing facilities and a shop. If you have started Blaidd's quest, speaking with Iji about him will unlock an additional Talisman for sale.
Iji's Shop Inventory:
- Somber Smithing Stone [1]: Infinite stock, costs 2000 Runes.
- Somber Smithing Stone [2]: Infinite stock, costs 3000 Runes.
- Somber Smithing Stone [3]: 3 stock, costs 4000 Runes.
- Somber Smithing Stone [4]: 3 stock, costs 6000 Runes.
- Carian Filigreed Crest: 1 stock, costs 5000 Runes.
The second time you meet Iji, he is known as War Counsellor. This occurs in Ranni's Rise after you begin Ranni the Witch's questline. You can ask him about your task, reaching Nokron, or about Blaidd. Returning to Iji at the Road to the Manor will also open up more dialogue options.
The third meeting occurs after you have progressed Ranni's quest beyond Nokron and obtained the Cursemark of Death. You will find Blaidd trapped in the Forlorn Hound Evergaol in Limgrave. After releasing him, return to Iji to ask why he imprisoned Blaidd, which will reveal information about Blaidd and the Carian Royals.
Your final meeting with Iji takes place after completing Ranni's Quest and Blaidd's Quest. Return to Iji at the Road to the Manor and press him about Blaidd. He will express that his time is up. Refresh the area using the nearby Site of Grace, and you will find Iji's body on the main road. Interacting with the anvil will allow you to collect Iji's Bell Bearing and Iji's Mirrorhelm.
