A Monk and a Saint is a Side Quest in The Blood of Dawnwalker. This article will guide you through every objective, helping you complete the quest from start to finish without missing any important steps.
Starting Location
A Monk and a Saint side quest automatically starts upon completing the Night Terrors quest.
Go to Svartrau Cathedral
As the quest starts, you will find yourself inside a cave. Defeat the Kobold enemies, then use Focus Mode to spot the yellow-highlighted stone. Push it out of the way to clear the path and exit the cave.
Search for Saint Mihai’s symbol on cathedral grounds
As you exit the cave, you will find yourself in the northwestern part of the cathedral. Clear the guards in the area. Then use the Focus Mode to see 5 graves. You can interact with the grave to see the symbols. However, you do not yet have enough information to know which symbol belongs to Mihai. You will need to identify the correct symbol before you can open the grave.
Search the courtyard
To get the right symbol, you need to get inside the cathedral through the tower opening on the roof, since every door is locked. Head up to the rooftop once night falls, then use Shadowstep to scale the walls and reach the tower entrance. From there, use Clawride to drop down through the open tower and into the cathedral below.
Once you’re inside, the game will prompt you to investigate the ceiling, the altar, and a book. Inspect each one to move the quest forward.
Investigate the cathedral from the scaffolding
Climb the scaffolding on the left and check out the fresco at the very top. Also, inspect the nearby book to find the correct symbol on Mihai’s armor.
Enter the crypt
Return to the five graves in the courtyard north of the cathedral. The correct grave is the second grave from the right. Inspect the symbol on it, and Coen will automatically open the grave, revealing an underground entrance.
Explore the crypt
Head down into the crypt and go through the first door on your left. Inside, switch on Focus Mode to track down where the noise is coming from. The left wall will light up yellow. Inspect it, and Coen will break the wall to find Saint Mihai.
Defeat Saint Mihai
This starts a boss fight against “Mihai, Patron of the Cathedral.” Beat him, and you’ll get the Broken Sword of St. Mihai. This ends the quest.
