Latenna is an NPC in Elden Ring. Latenna can be found after finishing the Lakeside Crystal Cave dungeon located under the southern ridge of Liurnia. She willingly becomes a Spirit to join the player, becoming Latenna the Albinauric.
Let's try again. I'm Latenna. An Albinauric, the same as Old Albus.
Latenna Location in Elden Ring
Latenna can be found sitting in front of the Slumbering Wolf's Shack in Liurnia of the Lakes. This area is only accessible after completing the Lakeside Crystal Cave dungeon. [Map Link]
- This NPC does not move
- This NPC can be killed
- If defeated, it's reported the Latenna does not drop their Spirit Ashes.
Latenna Questline: How to complete Latenna's Quest
Latenna's questline revolves around a separate NPC, Albus, that can be found in the Village of the Albinaurics.
Speaking to Albus will give players the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Right) and he will ask that should the player encounter Latenna that they give her the Medallion, speaking to Latenna with the medallion in hand she will see that Albus trusts the player and therefore she has no reason to doubt them, she will then ask if the player is willing to take her to the land of Miquella’s Haligtree.
Important Note: If players do not approach her before collecting both pieces of the Haligtree Secret Medallion, she will die and only her Spirit Ashes can be found. This makes it impossible to begin and complete her quest. A handful of players confirmed that she was dead after obtaining both halves of the Haligtree Secret Medallion. You are still be able to go back immediately after defeating Commander Niall, and not taking the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Left) before you leave the castle to go talk with her first. To prevent any trouble, you may want to grab her Ashes before progressing past the Grand Lift of Rold.
Promising Latenna to take her to the Haligtree, she will join the player and willingly become a Spirit summon, Latenna the Albinauric. She will also hint at the location of the Haligtree Secret Medallion (Left).
Upon reaching the Apostate Derelict [Map Link] located in the Consecrated Snowfield players can interact with the giant Albinauric woman to summon Latenna. Doing so, Latenna will reward the player with a Somber Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone.
Dialogue in Elden Ring: Latenna
Introduction
- Foul tarnished, what do you want?
I told the all-hearing brute. That I possess no such medallion.
Or have you come to take more from me? Was my other half not enough?
After showing her the secret medallion
- Oh...do you speak true?
So old Albus entrusted his medallion to you.... Then I've no choice. But to trust that this was his dying will.
Let's try again. I'm Latenna. An Albinauric, the same as Old Albus. My apologies for my coarse words earlier. I presumed the worst, seeing that you were another Tarnished, like that all-hearing brute. I hope that you will forgive me. - Mm, the medallion is better off in your hands, anyway.
Would you consider doing me a great service? I must go back. There is something that I must do, even if I must say farewell to my wolf, Lobo.
Will you show me the way? To the land of Miquella's Haligtree.
If you accept, I would gladly apprise you. Of the whereabouts of the medallion's other half. - (Hear her request) Thank you kindly. They say the other half of the medallion is beyond the forbidden lands north of the Erdtree. In Castle Sol, on the Mountaintops of the Giants, accessible by the Grand Lift of Rold.
- Then I suppose it's time. Farewell, Lobo. My faithful wolf, my better half. I will go with the Tarnished. So that our journey will not have been in vain. Forgive me, Lobo.
[You receive Latenna the Albinauric]
Call upon me when needed. And I will fight at your side.
North East of Ancient Snow Valley Ruins site of grace as you approach the frozen river, does not always trigger (as of 1.10)
- Do you hear me? It is I, Latenna. We're almost there. Castle Sol lies just off to the north, where the other medallion is housed. It will grant passage to the land of the Haligtree.
Arriving at Consecrated Snowfield (Fixed as of 1.10, still may not always trigger)
- Do you hear me? It is I, Latenna. We have reached the land of Miquella's Haligtree, where Lobo and I began our travels. It's entirely thanks to you that I'm so close to home.
These great snow-laden lands stretch far to the north. And beyond the ancient bowers, and the liturgical town of Ordina, lies the place to which I must return.
At Apostate Derelict
- Oh young yet towering sister of ours. Let the birthing droplet in. And create life. For us. For all the Albinaurics.
- Thank you. I've finally fulfilled my purpose.
Our young yet towering sister will give us hope. Now that nothing is left unfinished, I will join you in battle to the bitter end. And when the fighting is done, then you may lay me to rest. Beside Lobo, my dear wolf.
When attacked
- (Combat) Are all you Tarnished the same? Was taking my other half not enough for you?
- (On player kill) There is no meaning in a fight, lest it serve a greater duty.
Upon defeat
- Ohh... Phillia. Take...the birthing...droplet...
Elden Ring Latenna Notes & Trivia
- When turned aggressive, she acts as a normal Albinauric Archer.
- Latenna makes mention that Lobo, the wolf beside her, was taken from her by the “all-hearing brute,” likely referring to Gideon Ofnir. Ensha, who is Gideon’s servant, later invades after obtaining the medallion’s half in the Roundtable.
- Her spirit summon makes mention that 'having lost her beloved wolf companion, she cannot move from the place where she was summoned'. This shows that she rode the wolf around, and explains why she cannot move from her location.
- The name of her wolf companion was "Lobo", which means "wolf" in Spanish.

I can confirm she dies if you pick the Left half of the medallion before the right one, i was just trying to see if she has unique dialogue if you switch the order, but no she is just dead the moment you pick it up from castle sol. I did talk to her before with neither half of the medallions if that matters

I got her to join me before entering the capital, then I burned the Erdtree before visiting the snowfield. Now I can't complete her quest (or get the snowfield tears, as there is no avatar to fight).

Just do the lakeside crystal cave dungeon after finding Albus and getting the medallion from him. Easiest way to not screw up this quest.

I found Latenna dead after completing Castle Sol before finding Albus and that was my in-game reason for committing to a Frenzied Flame playthrough and grabbing Millicent's Prosthesis too since everything is gonna burn anyways

Are her dialogues at the frozen river and at the entrance of consecrated snowfield still bugged?

Was the frozen river dialogue added/corrected in 1.10 or it stopped working properly in 1.10?

Best girl, actually helped me in tough fights, especially when she aggro the enemy, gives me enough time to drink a potion or buff up and then aggro'd the enemy back with a combo of my own, literally beat so many ****ers with the teamwork we had that I lost count.

Its been left unsaid but we all know what happens in the night between latenna and lobo.

Shes supposed to talk to you when you bring her to certain points ingame but she never does for me. However, for some reason, when I was doing a randomizer run she actually did talk and used all her voice lines, so Idk what the problem is

Important note says that she dies if you have both halves of the medallion. It's just the second half. I haven't met albus yet, let alone got his half and she's already died and turned to spirit ashes. I had no idea she was here until I got the second half of the medallion (in castle sol) and looked up where the first half was.

I was in like ng +3 and she died so fast to Morgott. I checked to see if I accidently used an unupgraded one but she was +10! Is she that weak? She also did like 200 damage every 3 arrows, which is abysmal.
Hers is the saddest story in Elden Ring. She loved that wolf so much!
found her ashes next to the damn wolf, i'm so tired of shi like this happening in this game
all that time spent fighting niall was rendered useless, thanks elden ring!

I finally found the Albinauric woman. She was hiding in a cave to the east of the Laskyar Ruins, which jut from the mist-shrouded lake of Liurnia.
She knew the location of the medallion’s counterpart, I was sure.

is her quest completely broken atm? Have her ashes in my inventory and led her to the big cute lady and nothing happened. She has no reaction. Her voice lines don't trigger as well

If you complete Latenna's Questline completely, the archers in Ordina become 100% friendly.

My question is why did Gideon seek the medallion to access the Haligtree? What would have been his purpose there? Was he looking for Miquella not realizing Mohg had already captured him. And why? What else would have made Gideon want to access the Haligtree???

I got the second half of the medallion but forgot to exhaust her dialogue before, so when I came back there was only the spirit ashes. RIP ancient somber smithing stone.

As of the latest version(1.09 I think) the dialogue does trigger and seems to work. I got both of them but while I was riding through the snow the second dialogue faded and then stopped as if I was getting too far away to hear her. So if you want to hear the voice lines make sure to either stop and listen or ride slowly. Otherwise everything seems to be in working order!

At which points in the game where she will ride a dire wolf and help you fight a boss? As far as I know, there is no Direwolf in ANY boss arena or near, SO whats the point of the ability to tame enemies?

Didn’t finish Blaidd’s quest yet before getting to Mountaintop/Consecrated Snowfield and her dialogue triggered both times. I did all of Ranni’s, just didn’t go back to Caria Manor and confront Blaidd. Might have something to do with it.
I only got the second half after killing Niall, and I found her dead already. So probably only that one counts. :/

When I met her we actually fell in love and became happily married and ditched the Lands Between, all of this is 100% true and is a secret side quest
The dialogue triggers for Mountaintops and Snowfield still seem to be broken, or at least extremely finicky and unreliable. I never get either of those lines.

Cool, no prompt in front of the giant woman in Snowfield, guess I cant get the stone. THANKS.

Summoned her for the fight with Gideon because she deserved revenge.
The broken dialogue is fixed as of the most recent update on 2/23/23. Had Latenna as a Spirit Ash and walked northeast of the Ancient Snow Valley Ruins grace, Dialogue triggered.
You dont actually talk to the giant woman. As you approach her a message will appear to summon Latenna by pressing "E".
I'm currently playing on patch 1.08, did the steps correctly (I believe) to be on good terms with her, but as I approached the places she's supposed to talk to me I have no prompt from her :/

Just rock slinged his ass, thankfully he grabbed the summon and didn't do it again for the rest of the fight. I sincerely do not know how you're supossed to fight him in melee, but thankfully i didn't didn't do my first run as pure phys or i would be completely insane

Got Latenna, and heard all of her dialogue until arriving at the Apostate Derelict, where no dialogue triggered. Latenna's ashes are now no longer in my inventory, nor can I interact with big Albinauric lady, not sure what the problem is. Likely a bug I'm guessing.

So, in all my hundreds of hours she just now spoke to me about approaching castle sol. I didn't realize it was broken. Maybe it's because I didn't rest at the grace where you meet melania, I'll try to repeating the same thing when arriving at the snowfields.
Another thing, this little piece of dialoge added so much to her character. And made me slightly more attached to her journey by just hearing her voice.

The wiki says that Latenna's dialogue is broken as of patch 1.06, but now we have reached version 1.08. it is still like that?

Weird question: suppose you do the quest normally and she becomes a spirit ash, if you were to discard her spirit ashes , does it fail the quest?

From her dialogue I thought I could go back to Lobo after becoming elden lord and reunite them or something but doesn't seem like it, would've been nice if you could but I guess it's the classic no happy endings in souls game allowed situation.
- Anonymous
Approaching Castle Sol (broken since 1.03, as of 1.06)
Arriving at Consecrated Snowfield (broken since 1.03, as of 1.06)
These two are not problems due to the game version.
If you kill one of Blaidd, Iji, or Seluvis, you lose the dialogue flag.
Do not kill Blaidd either, who becomes an enemy at the end of Ranni's quest.
These were clarified by the Japanese wiki.
Killing her at the Wolf Shack grace will drop the entire blue silver mail set. But you don't get the spirit ash which is fine because her summon is not useful to me and farming this set is a real pain anyway.

In order to activate her Mountaintops and Snowfield dialogues, you need to equip her, then make her visible on your HUD. This happened to me when I was checking my pocket inventory to see if I had her equipped. At least, from my experience.

Can anyone confirm or deny wether Lobo was named after the streamer LobosJr? He's possibly the most relevant Souls streamer and it would be wonderful if From placed a reference to him as a sort of thanks for the hype he's been keeping up for over 10 years.

The trigger for her death appears to specifically be picking up medallion (Left) from Castle Sol, killing Niall or proceeding into the end-game doesn't seem to effect her.

As of 12-23-22, I had both pieces if the secret medallion, and was able to summon Latenna. She said her thing to the giant woman, and I got the stone.

For those who don't know what to do on the final part of the quest.
when you get to the part in Apostate Derelict, there will be an item highlight in front of the towering sister.
when you get close to it, switch the action to summon latenna.
and there you go..

I'm currently locked out of doing this quest. I did indeed meet her at the cabin and thought I had done the necessary steps, but when I'm now arriving at the giant lady, there's no prompt and I can't summon her. I went back to the cabin and the dead wolf had her ashes. I grabbed them, and because I'm on NG+ had to swap the first playthrough one with the new one in the chest, and neither worked. Never got the dialogues before Castle Sol or the the Consecrated Snowfield. Seems like I missed going back to her to progress things along. Sucks that I wont get the Stone now. :/
Why is her doggo dead. Why doesn't it just respawn at the grace like we do. Poor doggerino... :(

Would be cool if at the end of her quest, you could get an improved version of her, as she rides her wolf in battle.

Find the Albinauric woman. She hides in a cave to the west of the Laskyar Ruins which jut from the mist-shrouded lake of Liurnia. She knows the location of the medallion's counterpart, I am sure.

Her quest can fail, don't know how but i went to get her medallion at slumbering wolf shack but she was not there, the spirit ashes were though, then when reaching derelict church there is no conclusion to the quest and you don't get the somber stone.

Now this is my idea of a short and sweet questline. Nothing annoying, no grinding, no RNG, you go to a handful of different places, get paid big time. That said, though the reward for how effortless this was is nice, I found myself appreciating Latenna's narrative and the dynamic to feeling like we were escorting her to these places. And at the end, when we finish, her demeanor really sells that we've just basically given this woman her dying wish, which was really cool. It gives some more 'character' to having her fight with us. She isn't some random dude we met in the middle of nowhere, she's, in a way, a member of our party. She does kinda swear fealty to us at the end, so one could argue she's our knight of sorts as well. Really cool, fun stuff without any real hassle.

I should mention, regarding the possibility of finding her either dead or alive, I was wholly unaware of her existence prior to defeating Commander Niall, but I hadn’t found the half of the secret medallion you get after (which was a mistake borne of me wanting to get the **** out of Castle Sol after everything I’d been through there). I’d found the Albinauric Village a little while after, gotten the one half of the medallion, and found Latenna alive after proceeding through the Crystal Cave. I then later got the other half at Castle Sol, so hopefully this does provide a bit more clarification.
I can confirm that defeating Captain Niall is possibly not the trigger to make Latenna's questline impossible.
Defeated Captain Niall and left without grabbing the 2nd half.
Went to the albinauric village, got the 1st half, and she was still alive.
So, Its more likely the trigger for her death is getting the 2nd half of the medallion. I updated the wiki based on that but, that doesnt mean nothing else can trigger her death, just in a clean game progressing no questlines but this one except talking to basic NPCs as required, Radahn+Godrick+Morgott, Skipped the Dectus Lift using the mountain path, this is what I found.
