Walkthrough

• You must be on BRD to activate the cutscene.
• Talk to Bki Tbujhja in Lower Jeuno (H-8) who asks for a vial of Holy Water.
• Trade Bki Tbujhja the Holy Water and she will inform you that you need to pay your respects to the Bard of yesteryear. She returns the Holy Water and directs you to pour the flask onto a sarcophagus in The Eldieme Necropolis.

• You can speak to Mataligeat in Lower Jeuno (H-8) for a little more information about this bard, and how he came to a horrible end.

• Head to Beaucedine Glacier then to Batallia Downs. Once there, enter the Eldieme Necropolis via the entrance at F-5.

• Thanks to WotG, it is now possible to get up the ledge by talking to the Lycopodium (NPC) in the past and then trading an appropriate flower to the sparkling lights to instantly move up the ledge.

• Make your way to the dead-end room filled with five sarcophagi at D-4. Clear the room and when ready, trade the vial of Holy Water to one of the sarcophagi to spawn three Skeleton Notorious Monsters: Yum Kimil, a Black Mage. And Owl Guardian, Dog Guardian, both Warriors.

• The sarcophagus you need to trade to is random.
• If you want to sleep the mob, you need a high-level with a light based sleep. Repose, Lullaby and Sheep Song will work. Yum Kimil can not be slept.
• It used to be possible to pull one at a time if spawned while sneaked. Now they all start to attack you as soon as they spawn. But if you run away and get KO'd after popping them, the rest of your party can pull one at a time.
• It isn't necessary to kill all three NMs. If you pull one NM and then wait for the other two to despawn before killing it, you only need to fight one.
• If the NMs despawn while you aren't fighting one, or if you are defeated, immediately touching the Sarcophagus will result in "Nothing Happens". Wait a few minutes and when you touch it again the NMs will respawn. Even if you return the next real life day touching the sarcophagus will respawn them without having to trade any more Holy Water.
• If you are defeated but party members kill the NMs, you will not have to redo the fight. You can claim the key item when you are raised.
• It is possible to leave the zone and return to reset aggro. After doing so, you will be able to pull whichever one of the three is closest. They are undead, so they do not link.

• Once they have been defeated, re-investigate the same sarcophagus onto which you poured the Holy Water for a cutscene and to receive the Star Ring (Key Item).
• Head back to Lower Jeuno and talk with Bki Tbujhja to complete the quest.
• For strategy information see testimonials.

Notes

• Yum Kimil has approximately 8000 HP.
• Owl Guardian has approximately 5800 HP.
• Dog Guardian has approximately 6000 HP.
• Yum Kimil can be silenced.
• Yum Kimil has a powerful innate Enfire, Barfire is recommended.
