The Seer lives in her home in the north to northeast part of the Resting Grounds. If you have already met her and need to return, head to that part of the area.
How to find the Seer
Look for the Seer’s home in the northern or northeastern part of the Resting Grounds. The Dreamers Memorial is farther east; inspecting it is how the Knight receives the Dream Nail, not where the Seer lives.
How to reach the Resting Grounds
Choose whichever entrance matches the areas and access you already have:
- Take the Forgotten Crossroads tram using a Tram Pass.
- Use the hidden route above Salubra’s hut to reach the Blue Lake.
- Take the lift in the eastern City of Tears.
- Drop through the chasm near the Crystallised Mound in Crystal Peak.
First meeting and the Dream Nail
The Knight first encounters the Seer after the Dreamers trap them in the Dream Realm. She gives the Knight the Dream Nail, and the Knight wakes up inside her home. If you have not yet had this encounter, inspect the Dreamers Memorial in the Resting Grounds to receive the Dream Nail and begin the sequence.
