To begin this portion of the quest, players will need to find Primeval Sorcerer Azur on Mt. Gelmir in the Altus Plateau. Interact with him to receive the Comet Azur spell. Return and show the spell to Sellen back at the Waypoint Ruins.
After the spell is shown, select the new dialogue option I have a favor to ask. Listen to her plea for help and accept by selecting the option, Let us Journey Together. This triggers the Finding Lusat segment of the questline.
In order to trigger the next phase of Sellen's questline, players will need to meet Primeval Sorcerer Azur Once spoken to, return to Sellen to trigger the quest to look for Master Lusat.
After locating Lusat's body, return and speak to Sellen. She will reward you with a Starlight Shard for your efforts before telling you the location of her real body. Exhaust whatever dialogue is left to progress her questline.

While Sellen will tell you the last location of Lusat was in Sellia, this will not be true. Instead, to find the sorcerer, head over to the Church of Plague in Caelid. Ride to the northeast and hit the illusory wall that opens the way to the Sellia Hideaway.
Sellen will provide you with a key item called the Sellian Sealbreaker to break the seal of Lusat's resting place. With the Sellia Hideaway discovered, progress through the dungeon until you reach a lit crystal cavern.
Lusat will be at the bottom floor of this area, right after the enemy mage you have to jump over to. Drop down to the small river area and look for a large, Glinstone Seal glowing in the dark. Speak to Lusat and he will give you the spell, Stars of Ruin.
To unlock the next step of Sellen's questline, players will need to defeat Starscourge Radahn in Caelid. After defeating the general, return and speak to Sellen to help her get a new body.

After you defeat Radahn, Sellen will share that her real body is actually trapped somewhere in the Weeping Peninsula. To find it, head over to the Witchbane Ruins in the Weeping Peninsula. She will be in the basement of the ruins.
Speak to Sellen's restrained form and she will give you her Primal Glinstone. Players will have to put this into a new body to free Sellen from her prison.

Defeat Royal Knight Loretta |
Go to Seluvis' Puppet Dungeon |
Transplant the Primal Glintstone |
Sellen's new body can only be found in the Three Sisters area to the north of the Caria Manor. For players who have not yet unlocked this area, you will need to defeat Royal Knight Loretta to get there.

Sellen's new body can be found inside the puppet dungeon of the wizard named Seluvis. You will have to go through two different illusory walls to find it
The location of the first wall is pictured above, while the second illusory wall will be the large brick wall at the back of the dungeon. Hit it or roll towards it to reveal the other side.
Approach the puppet that looks like Sellen and transplant the Primal Glintstone into it. This will allow Sellen to return to the Academy of Raya Lucaria and continue her work.
Note: If the prompt to transplant the Primal Glintstone does not appear, quit to the main menu and re-enter the game to reload the area without having to fast travel away.

With Sellen free to resume her work as the Graven Witch, head over to the Grand Library of Raya Lucaria for the finale. Side with either Sellen or Jerren to complete Sellen's questline.
Note: A lot of events need to be triggered or completed to get to this point. The following section will detail each step that needs to be completed to get to this point of the quest.

The final showdown between Sellen and Jerren will be at the Grand Library of Raya Lucaria. In order to unlock this location, players will need to defeat Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon.

Once Radahn is beaten and Sellen acquires her new body, return to Redmane Castle and speak to Castellan Jerren. He should be seated on a chair in front of the castle's chapel. Exhaust his dialogue to get him to move on to the next location of the quest.

Reload Redmane Castle to make sure Jerren is gone from his position. If he is, return to the Witchbane Ruins in the Weeping Peninsula. Go to the basement and Jerren should be there, examining Sellen's supposedly dead body.
Once the above steps are complete, head back to the Grand Library of the Academy and exit through the main door. Just outside should be two summoning signs. Choose the gold sign to help out Sellen.
Defeat the now hostile Witch-Hunter Jerren and he will drop his Eccentric's Armor, Eccentric's Hood, Eccentric's Manchettes, and Eccentric's Breeches. Additionally, Sellen will reward you with her Glintstone Kris.
For players siding with Jerren, use the red summoning sign instead. Defeat Sellen to receive a Rune Arc, a Furlcalling Finger Remedy, her Bell Bearing, as well as the Witch's Glintstone Crown.
After the battle, exit through the main doors of the Grand Library. Jerren should be standing right outside. Speak to him to receive an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
For players who sided with Sellen, speak to her after the battle. She will be standing at the center of the Grand Library where Rennala once sat. Exhaust her dialogue before leaving the area.
Once the area is reloaded, Rennala will return to her usual location and Sellen will have transformed into a Graven Ball of Mages. She will drop her Witch's Glintstone Crown after the transformation.
Despite the unfortunate consequences of her forbidden research into Glinstone Sorcery, Sellen will remain interactable. Speak to her if you want to buy Sorceries or give her scrolls to unlock other spells for purchase.

"Tarnished, are we? A wonder you should turn up here. I am Sellen, a sorcerer, quite plainly." |
---|
"Ahh, a yen for glintstone sorceries? Well, your aptitude does appear... passable. But one must choose one's masters wisely. I was exiled from the Academy of Raya Lucaria, as a reviled, apostate witch. Do you still wish to learn from me?" |
---|
"The form you see before you is merely a projection. My body lies elsewhere. But the academy's shackles prevent it being moved. My body is on the Weeping Peninsula, at the southern tip of the Lands Between, imprisoned in the ruins just down from the Church of Marika, past the plain of the Wandering Mausoleum. Can you make the journey to my body? I have something that I can only trust with you." |
---|
"My apprentice, thank you for coming. These shackles take a toll on us all. There is something I need you to look after. My primal glintstone. A star has fallen, and my fortunes waver. Someone may come for my life. And so, I entrust it with you. My self." |
---|
"Jerren, bringer of my death. You have my gratitude. For freeing me from my shackles. But I am afraid your work is done. Join the school. To reflect on your mistake." |
---|
"Ahh, my apprentice. You've saved my skin once again. Do you see this? The Queen of Caria is no more. With the bodies of Masters Azur and Lusat returned, the academy can hone the primeval current. So that we, fallen children of the stars, shall beam with brilliance once again." |
---|
"My apprentice. Will you stay with us, here at the academy? Oh, I know it's not possible. You have your own calling. To be the next Elden Lord. But do think of me. Of your teacher. On the eve of your crowning. You will always be my darling pupil. Rest assured that I... No, the entire academy, will swear allegiance to the new monarch. My apprentice. Become Elden Lord." |
---|
"Hmm, perhaps I'm jumping ahead, but here is a symbol of my allegiance, and the academy's. Do you recall what once I told you? That glintstone is the amber of the cosmos, and sorcery is the study of the stars, and the life therein. When you become Elden Lord, please illuminate me. Lay bare the secrets of life which course the Elden Ring. Next time, I will be your student." |
