List of Contents
Melina's Location and Appearance Conditions
Appears at any Limgrave Site of Grace after Finding 3 Graces
Melina will appear once you discover at least 3 Sites of Grace and then rest at any Site of Grace in Limgrave. While most players will encounter her at the Gatefront Site of Grace, she can appear at multiple locations in Limgrave including the Church of Elleh and even the Third Church of Marika.
Melina will give you the item Spectral Steed Whistle, which allows you to summon your mount, Torrent and she can also level up your stats in exchange for Runes.

What Happens if you Decline Melina's Offer?
She can be Summoned Again
After Melina explains to you that you are maidenless, she will offer to be your maiden. You can then choose to accept or decline her.If you choose to reject her offer, Melina will state that she understands the player's decision and informs you that she can be summoned again once you reconsider.
To summon Melina, a prompt Talk to Melina will be added to the blessing menu to call her back and accept her offer.
Everything Melina Can Do
Level Up your Stats
Melina just like the previous Shrine Maidens from past Dark Souls titles, can level up the player's stats at Sites of Grace.
Leveling your stats is a key factor in Elden Ring, as it increases your attack power, defense rating, and allows you to equip certain equipment.
Takes you to Roundtable Hold
After progressing to a certain extent in the Game, a dialogue with Melina will trigger while resting at a Site of Grace where she will offer to take the Tarnished to Roundtable Hold.
The Roundtable Hold is the equivalent of the Firelink Shrine of Dark Souls or the Nexus in Demon's Souls.
Is Melina a Finger Maiden?
Plays the Role of your Maiden
In previous FromSoftware titles, specifically in the Dark Souls series, Shrine Maiden's were NPCs that assist the player by leveling up their stats. These characters often played a huge role to the story and provided support to the player during their playthrough.
Melina is not technically a Finger Maiden, but she does play the role of your maiden with the condition that you take her to the foot of the Erdtree.
Not your Typical Shrine Maiden
Unlike the Shrine Maidens of old, Melina does not exist solely with the purpose of being a Shrine Maiden but has her own goals and intentions for helping the player.
