Go to the Final Ritual Altar in a Circular Area

On the far end of the map, you'll find a large Circular Area containing a fourth Ritual Altar. If you have not completed three Ritual Altars before reaching it, it will be covered in black clouds and inaccessible.

After you have completed the 3 other Ritual Altars, return here for the final Ritual. Note that the quest objective will not change, so you'll need to remember to return here after completing the other three.

3. Defeat The King in the Mists

King in the Mists
In the final Ritual Altar, The King in the Mists will spawn. This boss features 2 phases, so come to the fight prepared!

The King in the Mists in the first phase is shifty and able to teleport backward while also dealing with short- and long-range AOE attacks.

Once the boss is low enough health, the second phase will begin. The King in the Mists no longer teleports in the second phase, but the range and AOE of his attacks are increased.
