Unlocking Revenant's Memories in Elden Ring Nightreign
Discover how the mystical journal in Elden Ring Nightreign unlocks haunting Revenant’s tragic past, revealing game-changing relics and immersive time-travel adventures.
When I first stepped into the Roundtable Hold as a Nightfarer in Elden Ring Nightreign, I was immediately drawn to that massive leather-bound Journal resting on the cluttered desk left of the Lost Table of Grace. Little did I know this tome would become my gateway to reliving Revenant’s haunting past! What starts as fragmented diary entries evolves into full-blown time-traveling adventures called Remembrances – interactive flashbacks revealing why this secret character is drenched in blood and sorrow. And trust me, uncovering her three-part tragedy rewards you with game-changing Relics and skins that transform how she plays.
🔍 What Exactly Is the Journal?
Right after surviving the tutorial, you'll find this mystical book waiting for you. It chronicles every Nightfarer's backstory – even characters you're not currently playing. But here's the kicker: you can't just flip through all pages instantly! The Journal reveals its deepest secrets only after you collect Memory Fragments. I initially thought these were inventory items like Relics, but nope – they automatically unlock new entries the moment you earn them.
🗝️ How Do You Unlock Memory Fragments?
Early on, I struggled to figure this out. The game doesn't spell it out, but after countless expeditions, I cracked the code: defeat Nightlords while playing as that specific Nightfarer. Want Revenant's story? You MUST battle bosses with her. Each victory has a chance to reveal fragments of her tragic history. Pro tip: Focus on Expeditions like Tricephalos or Darkdrift Knight – they’re her personal triggers!
