Elden Ring has many secret questlines for all the NPCs in the game. However, some of these are very obscure and hard to find and follow. This guide will help you complete Hyetta’s questline in Elden Ring by outlining the location of each Shabriri Grape.
Hyetta is a blind maiden aspiring to lead a tarnished one day. However, the only path for her is to embrace frenzy by eating grapes that eerily resemble mad human eyes. Will you help Hyetta achieve her goal or abandon her questline due to pity?
How to Start Hyetta’s Questline in Elden Ring
The first thing you need to do before you try to follow Hyetta’s Questline, is to complete Irina’s Questline. It is started at the entrance of Weeping Peninsula. You can check out how to complete Irina’s Questline here.
If you don’t start Irina’s Quest and deliver her letter to Edgar, you won’t be able to obtain the third Shabriri Grape in Elden Ring.
To progress through Hyetta’s quest in Elden Ring, you must find some Shabriri grapes from different locations and then deliver them to her.
First Shabriri Grape – Stormveil Castle
To start Hyetta’s Questline, defeat Godrick in Stromveil Castle and exit through the back door to get Shabriri Grape on your way out. With the Shabriri Grape in your possession, head to Hyetta, which can be found near the Lake-Facing Cliffs Site of Grace in the Liurnia region.
Give Shabriri Grape to Hyetta here:
Second Shabriri Grape – Purified Ruins
Next, you find Hyetta in Purified Ruins in East Liurnia. You can find another Shabriri Grape in the underground hidden room in these same ruins. Roll over some wooden planks to locate the entrance to the hidden cellar. Give this second Shabriri Grape to Hyetta as well.
Third Shabriri Grape – Revenger’s Shack
For the third encounter, you can find Hyetta northeast of the Gate Town Bridge Site of Grace. You need to give her the third Shabriri Grape.
This is found at Revenger’s Shack, where you can fight Edgar, the Revenger. Destroying him will provide you with the third grape you need. This place is directly west of Hayetta’s, which is sitting near a cliff.
As you present the grapes to Hyetta, she will ask about them. You can either say, “They’re human eyes,” or “Don’t say anything.” Select the first option, and she will be a bit troubled by the answer. Rest at the Site of Grace and interact with her again. She will reach a conclusion and decide to become a Finger Maiden.
Fingerprint Grape – Bellum Church
The last encounter you have with Hyetta is at Bellum Church. This time, Hyetta requests you to bring Fingerprint Grape for her. To get this, travel to the Church of Inhibition to fight an invading NPC who drops the grape.
The Church of Inhibition is beyond the Frenzied Flame Village. Go to the Grand Lift of Dectus Site of Grace and travel towards the ruined church through the Frenzied Flame Village. Here, you will be invaded by Festering Fingerprint Vyke. Defeat the invader to get the Fingerprint Grape.
Present the grape to Hyetta back at Bellum Church, marking the end of the first chapter of Hyetta’s Questline in Elden Ring.
Meet Hyetta at Frenzied Flame Proscription
You can again find Hyetta at the Subterranean Shunning Grounds. Find and defeat Mohg, the Omen. There is an illusory wall in this area that you can open by striking it.
Jump down the beams until you reach the bottom of the pit. This area is called Frenzied Flame Proscription. You will find Hyetta here standing against a wall. Here, speak to Hyetta and remove your clothes to be able to enter the room and get marked by the Three Fingers. Melina will abandon you for this choice you made, and in her place, Hyetta will become your Finger Maiden.
Talk to Hyetta, and she will try to embrace the Frenzied Flame. However, she will end up burning in the process, leaving you maidenless yet again. Interact with her body to obtain Frenzied Flame Seal and Frenzyflame Stones.
The quest itself has no effect on the Frenzied Flame Lord ending of the game. However, you will be locked in this ending unless you use Miquella’s Unalloyed Needle at Placedusax’s Grave to reverse this ailment forever.
