Guide Status: WIP

How to Start The Third Sin

To start The Third Sin, make your way to the City of the Blessed Name. Head to the room to the right of Our Lady of the Chalices (the health upgrade NPC). Double-jump up to the ledge on the right and pass through the door into the next room.

Walk over to the coffin in this room and interact with it to claim the Lamp of the Whisper of the Mist. Once you pick it up and exit the room, a cutscene will trigger.

After the cutscene concludes, make your way to the Choir of Thorns. Go to the the Prie Dieu located at the very bottom of the area by the entrance to the Icebound Mausoleum.

From that Prie Dieu, enter the room to the right. Pass all the way through it and continue moving right until you reach the lake of mist. Interact with the chariot and select “Yes” to cross over. This will take you to the Castle of the Mist, the main area where the DLC content takes place.

Go To the Usurped Halls

From the dock head to the right. You will encounter a Prie Dieu on your path. Activate it and continue heading to the right into the next room. As you enter this room you will trigger a cutscene.

Continue right after the cutscene and walk up to the fountain. A mini-boss named Darbon will appear. Defeat Darbon then continue right into the Usurped Halls.

Usurped Halls

In the Usurped Halls make your way to the third room. In this room you will find the next Prie Dieu. Use it and continue to the right until you find a ladder in the floor you can use to go down. Go down the ladder.

Make your way to Eliseo in the Usurped Halls.

In the lower room you walk to the right. You will meet Eliseo who is watching over the body of women. After Eliseo speaks to you, your map will be updated with three new objectives. These objective have to be completed before you can fight the DLC’s boss.

Purple Cloud

Purple Cloud and A Piece of Cracked Ceramic.

Walk to the right of Eliseo and enter the next room. Continue into the next room to the right. In this room you will encounter a Purple Cloud shrouding the path ahead and A Piece of Cracked Ceramic.

The Purple Cloud here will kill you if you stay inside of it for too long. There are a number of these clouds scattered around the DLC areas, which make traversal difficult. To continue we need to remove the source of this environmental trap, but before we can do that we need to get the DLC’s new weapon first.

How to Get the Embrujo

Path to reach Geometry of Knowledge.
Follow this path to open a shortcut and reach Geometry of Knowledge.

Head to the right and go through the Purple Cloud. Go up the ladder to the room above. In the room above make your way left into the next room to reach a locked gate shortcut. Open a shortcut back to the Prie Dieu.

Once the shortcut is unlocked continue heading to the right into the vertical room. Go up the room and take the first left. You will enter a new area called Geometry of Knowledge.

Make Your Way Through Geometry of Knowledge

In the first room of Geometry of Knowledge make your way up into the room above. In this next room use your weapon hit and move the ladder in the middle of the area to the left side of the room. Climb the ladder to reach the exit in the top left corner of the room.

Go to the very top of this long vertical room using the platforms and go through the top right exit into the next room. In this room you will find a Prie Dieu. Activate it then head down into the next room.

In the next room you will reach an elevator shaft, but the elevator is currently broken. In the shaft make your way up and into the room on your left. Complete the combat challenge in this room and head into the room to the left.

Place the ladder like this to cross the gap.

Drop into the Purple Cloud in this room and hit the ladder so it sits in the middle between you and the platforms on the left. Use it to reach the other side of the room. Make your way left then drop down and continue left into the next room.

Activate the ladder in this room to get a shortcut back to the earlier Prie Dieu. Continue left. Go left through this room into the next one. Hit the ladder in this room to reach the left side. Continue left into the next room.

In this room use the down attack of Ruego Al Alba to break the roots blocking the path below. Go down and use the bottom right exit. Head through this next room into the bottom right room.

Embrujo Got!

Push up at the entrance to reach a special room with a body hanging in the far left side of it. Hit the body with a weapon to knock it down. Doing this unlocks the Embrujo, which is a whip style weapon.

Important: The Embrujo is both a weapon and a traversal tool. Using it allows you to grapple to the wolf heads you see in areas and reach places you can’t without it. The game explains this mechanic to you the first time you have to use it!

Embrujo when equipped, takes the place of the Veredicto. It can be used to hit chiming bells you encounter. If you wish to switch back to the Veredicto simply access the Arsenal of Penitence.

Now that we have Embrujo it is time to clear up the Purple Clouds so we can open up more areas of the map and complete the objectives of the DLC.

Go to Stone Entrails

Go back to the large square room to the left. In this room you will learn how to use the Embrujo. Follow the prompts and make your way to the left side using it. In the bottom left open the gate. Continue left into the next room.

Follow the path through the rooms shown on the map above. We need to head back down into the Stone Entrails, specifically the room I have circled in the screenshot above.

In the highlighted room we can use the Embrujo to cross the spikes we couldn’t before. This allows us to go deeper into the Stone Entrails where the source of the Purple Clouds is located.

Make Your Way Through Stone Entrails

Follow this path through Stone Entrails.

Cross the spikes and make your way into the room on the right. Go down in this room until you see an entrance on your right. Go into this room to find a Prie Dieu and a gate. Interact with both.

Head back out into the room to your left. Make your way to the left side and head into the room on the left. Use your Embrujo on the wolf heads here to reach the top left corner.

Open the gate then drop off the ledge and use Ruego Al Alba slam to destroy the roots blocking the path below. Go down into the room below. Head through this room into the one on the left.

Walk into the middle of this room and drop down into the Purple Cloud area. Slide into the area to your right to reset the debuff. Go to the left through the Purple Cloud and use the wolf head to go up. Continue into the next room.

Destroy the Source of the Purple Clouds

In the next room you will find a Prieu Dieu. Use it and then head left. Follow the path shown on the map above. Your goal here is to reach the room I have highlighted.

Inside the circled room is the source of the Purple Cloud which is a man in a coffin. Hit the man with a weapon to destroy him and clear up the clouds in all of the areas. Upon destroying it you will see a short cutscene, signifying the curse has been lifted.

Whew, now that was a journey! With that complete we can finally get into completing the DLC’s main objectives and one is close by!

Objective 1: Stone Entrails

The first objective can be found in the Stone Entrails. To reach it head back to the Prie Dieu. From there follow the path highlighted on the map above. Along the path you need to complete a few platforming rooms and a combat room before reaching the objective room.

In the objective room interact with the statue of the two lovers. Doing this causes you to pull out the blue pin. Upon pulling it out you will trigger a cutscene.

How to Get the Elevator Working

To advance to the next two objectives we need to make our way back to Geometry of Knowledge. Travel between the Prie Dieus or fast travel to return there. From there follow the path I have drawn to reach a room along the elevator shaft.

Inside this room you will find a gear mechanism that is stuck by a statue on it. Destroy the statue by hitting it. This will get the elevator running again and the nearby gate will open. With the elevator up and running we can reach the last two objectives!

Head through the gate and enter the elevator shaft room. Use the elevator to go up one stop. Exit the elevator and head to the room on the right to reach a Prie Dieu.

Make Your Way Through The Vibrating of the Organs and Get the Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes

It may seem like you are close to the next objective, but you actually aren’t. The next section is fairly windy and not direct. You need to make your way through The Vibrating of the Organs to reach by taking a winding path.

I have mapped it out for you above. At the end of the path you will reach a Prie Dieu. To the right of it is the Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes.

Important: The Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes allows you to open the locked gates you have encountered during your journey through The Castle of Mist.

Objective 2: The Vibrating of the Organs (Top Right Corner)

Head through the gate to the to the right. Follow the map path shown above. You will need to make your way through the upper rooms of The Vibrating of the Organs to reach the top right corner objective room.

Before the objective room there is a combat room to complete. Complete it and then head right into the objective room.

In the objective room interact with the statue of the two lovers. Doing this causes you to pull out the blue pin. Upon pulling it out you will trigger a cutscene. Two down; one to go.

Objective 3: The Vibrating of the Organs (Top Left Corner)

Head to the nearest Prie Dieu/fast travel portal and use it to go back to the Prie Dieu where we got the Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes.

From the Prie Dieu head to the left. Follow the path above. This path will lead you to the final objective room in the top left corner of The Vibrating of the Organs. This section is more platforming related, so be ready for that.

In the objective room interact with the statue of the two lovers. Doing this causes you to pull out the blue pin. Upon pulling it out you will trigger a cutscene.

Return to Eliseo

With all three objectives completed you will get a new objective to return to Eliseo. Head to the nearest Prie Dieu/fast travel and go back to the Usurped Halls.

Make your way down to Eliseo. Speak to him. He will tell you the Duchess has been freed, so his work is done. After telling you this he gives you the The Broken Ring of Sealed Lips which combines with the Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes to create the Complete Ring of the Perfidy. This ring allows you to access the boss fight room.

Boss Fight: Crescenia, Duchess of the Sleeping Face

To reach the boss fight room head back to the Prie Dieu in The Vibrating of the Organs where we got the Broken Ring of the Sealed Eyes.

In the middle of this room is a door that is now open. Head through the door to start the boss fight against Crescenia, Duchess of the Sleeping Face.

The video above from our Hold To Reset YouTube channel shows me completing the boss fight. Upon completing this fight you will unlock the Atonement of Sins achievement/trophy and will receive the Crescensia’s Veil item.

This completes the The Third Sins’ main story. There is plenty of secrets to find and much more to explore. Check out our other guides for details on completing the Offerings quest, finding all Altarpieces, and unlocking skins for The Penitent One.
