3. Learn About the Gospel of Teaar During Searching for the Keystone of Ecstacy

1. Find Vitalis During Family Reunion

Step Objective
1.1
After speaking with Victor and asking him about the the Vigil Note you found in Vitalis' basement, travel to Vyssa Hills and look for the Weeping Knight Statue by following the stone path northeast of where the APC is parked.
1.2 Speak with the wounded OMSIF soldier near the statue, and she will tell you that the convoy fled further northeast.

Family Reunion Walkthrough

2. Find the Watcher's Nest During Family Legacy

Step Objective
2.1
From the save point on Vitalis's grave, head southwest up the hills near the timeloop. Enter the wooden gate into the mountain pass.

Past the timeloop is a path towards a refugee camp where you can talk to Diana Kos for the Death's Door good deed.
2.2
On the first intersection, take the left path going southeast and speak to the woman sitting near the save point.
2.3
This is Tania Alver, the journalist that was in contact with Vitalis. She will tell you about the location of the Watcher's nest, past the tombstones, west of your current location.

She will give you one of the keys to open the door, the Emblem-Candle, and will ask you to find Agatha for the second one.
2.4
Go back to the intersection and take the path right. As you exit the ridges, you will find a Timeloop Guardian and a Feral Walker standing over her corpse. Defeat the enemies and take the Emblem-Book from her body.

You will also pick up her Ethnic ID Card, which you can use to solve the Mystery, The Hideout, later in the game.
2.5
Climb the scaffolding and walk to the left. There will be a path filled with tombstones. Follow the path heading west. At the first intersection, take the right path.
2.6
On the second intersection on this road, take the right path to find the doors of the Watcher's Nest.

You can meet Atticus if you follow the path to the left; he is a refugee camping near the giant stone serpent. Giving him the keys to the ON Truck will complete the Good Deed, Heart of Gold.
2.7
Open the door using the emblems. There will be a note near the center telling you to open Pentos's Coffin. It will also contain the riddle to open it. Go down into the crypt and gather the four Ceramic Flowers and the Lymbic Rod - Grief, Z.

The solution is; Name - Algea (behind the whiteboard) , Title - Tear Symbol (in the round room), Symbol of his Order - The Vigil (candle and book symbol near the save point), Date - 1513 (beside the green banner).

Go back to crypt and open the coffin. You will get the Mark of the Betrayed and the Blue Flower Scroll. There will be a cut scene with Tania accessing your APC and agreeing to meet her there.
2.9
Before leaving, speak with the man in the wheel chair, Gildas Brom, as he will give the Guardian Detector, which can help you track the location of Timeloop Guardians. He will also reward you for doing Good Deeds and closing Timeloops.

There is a computer to Gildas Brom's right that's connected to the Eternity mystery.
