| Quest Description | |
| Much like Sonia, Elrica had also been transformed into a fallen. Determined to make Sazantos answer for his atrocities, the Guardians of Light set out to confront their former companion. | |

Castle of the Hollow Queen unlocks automatically after defeating Fallen Elrica in the previous quest, Hill of the Dead. The quest officially starts after meeting with Alaune in Castle Edoras.
| 1 | ![]() Speak to Rondo You can find Rondo at the entrance of Castle Edoras. Before talking to him, however, make sure you've wrapped up any active Side Stories as fast travel and certain Path Actions will be disabled once you proceed and may affect their progression. |
|---|---|
| 2 | ![]() Proceed through Castle Edoras in Hell After the cutscene with Sazantos and regaining control of your character, start exploring the Castle Edoras in Hell by entering the room to the right and going through the door at the top of the stairs. |
| 3 | ![]() The dining hall contains two chests: one at the top right corner and another on the left wall that is accessible by passing through the room to your left. After getting the chests, exit through the lower left side. |
| 4 | ![]() Run to the far left side of the floor, open the chest next to the chairs, then go up the stairs for a cutscene with Sazantos. Go up the stairs to Hell: Castle Edoras - 2F after the cutscene. |
| 5 | ![]() Grab the contents of the chest near the stairs you went up from and the chest in the armor room, then make for the Remembrance Hall on the far right end of the floor. |
| 6 | ![]() Defeat the Elite Enemy on the bridge, Fallen Edoras Defender of Power. This Elite Enemy doesn't have a special gimmick other than its "roar of anguish" where it increases its own attack stats but lowers its defenses. Use this opportunity to exploit its weakness to Axes, Bows, Staves, Lightning, and Light. |
| 7 | ![]() There are two NPCs ahead who you can get items from through Path Actions, as well as a chest to the left. Interact with the glowing orb on the right for a cutscene to get Elrica's Curse - Dying Wish. |
| 8 | ![]() Go back to the previous room and dispel the dark mist blocking the stairs to your right, then go up the stairs to Hell: Castle Edoras - 3F. |
| 9 | ![]() Climb the next staircase on the left and enter the theater where you'll find two chests. Exit to the left and go up to Hell: Castle Edoras - 4F. |
| 10 | ![]() You'll get another cutscene, where Rondo splits from the group to fend off the Fallen, upon entering the room in the middle. Go down to the next room and take an immediate left to find Fallen Edoras Defender of Wealth. This Elite Enemy is weak to Swords, Daggers, Axes, Fire, and Ice. Before passing through the doorway behind it, there are two chests on the hall below and another on the training area outside. |
| 11 | ![]() Past where the Defender of Wealth was are two NPCs you can use Path Actions on, a cabin with a chest inside, and the second memory. Interact with the orb to obtain Elrica's Curse - Deepest Desire. |
| 12 | ![]() Get back inside the castle and dispel the dark mist on the right side so you can reach Hell: Castle Edoras - 5F. |
| 13 | ![]() There are several doors here that you can take time to explore for to get items, including the staircase on the bottom right corner that leads to an isolated part of Hell: Castle Edoras - 6F. Once you're ready to proceed, enter the doorway on the left of the statues in the main room. |
| 14 | ![]() Follow the path until you find the Fallen Edoras Defender of Fame. This Elite Enemy is weak to Spears, Tomes, Fans, Ice, and Wind. After defeating the Fallen Edoras, exit through the door behind it and interact with the memory by the grave to obtain Elrica's Curse - ???. You can also mug the attendant NPC nearby to get some items before you leave. |
| 15 | ![]() Confront Elrica You can now dispel the final dark mist in the castle. Go back to the main room and go through the door on the top left corner. Climb the stairs and remove the mist to gain access to Hell: Castle Edoras - 6F. |
| 16 | ![]() Save before entering the throne room and approach Elrica, who will summon the Fallen Lebrandt to fight. Fallen Lebrandt can use Unwavering to set his Shield Points to 99 and follow up with an attack that will hit the entire front row in the next turn. If you can tank this attack, Fallen Lebrandt will deal huge damage to himself. Fallen Lebrandt is weak to Spears, Bows, Staves, Fire, and Dark. |
| 17 | ![]() A boss fight against Cursed Princess Elrica will start right after defeating Fallen Lebrandt. Elrica's attacks can inflict Dread, which prevents the target from recovering BP for three turns. She can also disrupt your setup by preventing a party member from switching out. Once her HP drops down to critical level, Elrica will gain 99 Shield Points and prepare the Sword of Darkness attack. As it is impossible to shred that much SP, have your front row stack defense buffs instead so the chosen target can tank the attack. Cursed Princess Elrica is initially weak to Axes, Tomes, Ice, Wind, and Light, but can switch them to Swords, Fans, Fire, Lightning, and Light. |
