Elden Ring: How Did Ranni Die and How to Find Her?
Even though theTwo Fingers chose Ranni as the successor to Queen Marika, she defied her Empyrean destiny as she did not want to be controlled by the Greater Will. She took a piece of the Rune of Death to fake her death and gave another piece to Rykard. She used a fragment of the rune to help the Numen assassins kill Godwyn at the same time as she died, so she could escape the influence of the Two Fingers.
Her spirit then inhabits a doll, the form in which she appears in the game. Tofind Ranni the Witch inElden Ring, players need to complete the Caria Manor dungeon located in Liurnia anddefeat Royal Knight Loretta. This will grant the Tarnished access to the Three Sisters area and a tower called Ranni’s Rise, where she can be found.
