Sanctums are large areas that you need to purify with a witch companion to complete.

To purify Sanctums, you would need to have met the witch Elowen first and accept her quest to purify the Sanctums. Purifying these Sanctums are part of the Witches Faction Quest.

Since Sanctums can only be purified by Witches from the Witches Faction, completing these challenges is essential for Quest Progression.

Always keep a lookout for hidden chests within Sanctums. While they are not direct rewards for purifying the area, you can almost always find a hidden treasure tucked away in a corner or behind a puzzle once the Sanctum is cleared.
While there are no inherent item rewards for completing Sanctum challenges, there are several in-game Achievements tied to discovering and purifying every location. Completing these is required for those aiming for 100% completion.
