Veiled Witch is one of four questlines in Chapter 9 that follow after The Calling. After reading four inscriptions on the statues, four questlines are unlocked. This is the Master Du’s Training: Veiled Witch encryption.

It reads:
“Lend your ear to the cries of suffering.
Enlightenment shall begin beyond the sea of crimson sands in the north, where severed bonds will born.”

Reveal the Secret of the Stone Tablet

For Master Du’s Training: Veiled Witch, travel north of Demeniss to Tariv near the Denn River. There is a tower near the water. Enter it and go to the top to speak with the sorcerer by interacting with a moving painting. The sorcerer is bound to the painting by Hexe Marie. To fight her, you have to seek out to restore power at the Sanctum of Martification.

Restore the Power at the Sanctum of Mortification

When you open your in-game map, you will now see a round, orange circle northeast of your location. Hexe Marie has occupied the whole area. Before going there, the sorcerer sends you southeast, south of the Denn River.

As you approach the Power device at the Sanctum of Mortification, the White Crow cleanses the corruption, and you can go to work restoring it. First of all, let’s have a look at it. The device seems to be missing the top of one of the four towers. The top of one of them is hovering on the staircase of one of the buildings. Use Axiom Force and store the piece in the Kuku Pot.

Back at the power device, open your inventory and the Kuku Pot to discard the piece you need. Then use Axiom Force to put it on top of the broken tower. Climb this tower and use Force Palm while jumping to direct the force down to repair it.

Next, you will notice that one of the power cubes is missing. At the same building, where you found the pillar piece, but on the outside is an overgrown entrance. You need to shoot a fire arrow to burn the overgrowth. Find two stone lanterns on the other side of the area. Ignite them both, and you have access to a treasure chest and now a fire source for the arrow.

Burn the thorns, noticing metal bars blocking the way to reach the power cube. Just use Axiom Force on the cube through the bars and store it in the Kuku Pot. Take the power cube back to the slot and place it inside. Lock it in with a good Force Palm to power up the Sanctum of Mortification.

Description:
“The energy spread by the Black Witch is concealing her traces. Destroy the stone tower to lift the veil.”

Destroy the Totems at Clay Urn Necropolis

You now have to head out to destroy four totems at four named locations on the map: Clay Urn Necropolis, Forgotten Tomb, Brimstone Springs, and Hollow Haven. Destroy all totems with a Charged Shot and the urns around them that look like this. Sometimes, people are trapped in the urns.

The Black Witch will appear in all of the four locations and disappear again after taking too much damage. Destroying all the main Totems in the four areas will liberate the region.

Fight and defeat the Black Witch at the Hexe Sanctuary at the top of the hill – for two rounds. She’s by the tree.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
