This walkthrough will guide you step by step on how to obtain the church’s relic to activate the Pillar of Radiance in the main quest Secret at the Church in Crimson Desert.


How to obtain the church’s relic in Crimson Desert

As the main quest ‘Secret at the Church‘ progresses, you will eventually reach the orphanage area. Once you arrive, head toward the back of the area where you will find a small house. Go toward it to trigger a cutscene. After the cutscene, you will receive a key. This key allows access to a hidden cellar near the church.

Now make your way to the church. Refer to the location on the map below. Once inside, go behind the church and look for a small house with a crypt.

Use the key you received earlier to unlock the door, then head down into the cellar. Inside, explore the room carefully until you find a strongbox.

Interact with it to start a puzzle. Puzzle Solution:
