Rya Questline: Points of Failure

1. If you join the Volcano Manor without speaking to Rya at Liurnia of the Lakes, you will lose access to Blackguard Big Boggart and his questline for the rest of that playthrough, as he will refuse to speak with you if you haven't spoken with Rya in the swamp about retrieving a necklace from someone who stole it. This will also render you unable to purchase Boiled Prawn and Boiled Crab. (However, you can enter the Manor and touch the grace in the room where Tanith and her knight protector reside without losing access to Blackguard Big Boggart's questline as long as you do not speak to Tanith or anyone else in the Manor.)

2. If you kill Rykard before speaking to Rya in her room inside the dungeon, she will disappear from the manor and her quest will become impossible to complete.

 

Rya Questline: How to complete Rya's Quest

  1. First meet her at Liurnia of the Lakes under the pavilion next to the Birdseye Telescope north of Laskyar ruins. Exhausting her dialogue she will ask you to retrieve a necklace from someone who stole it. [Map Link]
  2. Head north west from the pavilion until you reach the Boilprawn Shack and its Site of Grace.
  3. Speak to the thief there, Blackguard Big Boggart, who will offer to sell Rya's Necklace back to you for 1000 runes. Alternatively, you can kill him and it will drop.
    • NOTE: Killing Boggart here will lock you out of being able to complete his quest later
  4. Return the necklace to her and she will reward you with a Volcano Manor Invitation.She will also tell you about the two main ways to reach Altus Plateau.
  5. When reaching Altus Plateau, you can talk to Rya, and she will teleport you inside Volcano Manor. Depending on which route you took to first reach the plateau, she can be found at one of two locations:
    • the lower part of Lux Ruins, up the stairs from the Erdtree-Gazing Hill site of grace, if you went through the Ruin-Strewn Precipice first
    • the top of Grand Lift of Dectus, to the left of the top of the stairs leaving the lift platform, if you used the lift first
    • NOTE: If she does not appear at either of these locations, try teleporting to the Grand Lift and riding it to the top again to trigger her spawn.
    • NOTE: You can reach Leyndell, Royal Capital through Fia's questline. If done so, Rya won't appear at either of these locations.
  6. After joining Volcano Manor and completing the first part of Tanith questline (i.e., assassination of Old Knight Istvan) she will move to a different room in the manor and appear in her snake form. Speaking to her during her snake form will progress the questline.
    • NOTE: If you do all contracts in the Volcano Manor, to the point where you get ported to Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy from Tanith, she will no longer have dialogue related to Rya and you will be unable to pursue her optional objectives in this questline.
  7. Complete the second part of Tanith questline: assassination of Rileigh the Idle
  8. She will be in human form in the same room where she was seen in her snake form.  she complains about hearing noises in the adjacent room: a clue to the secret passage therein. She asks you to investigate. To proceed in the questline, enter the illusory wall in the room right of hers and reach the grace in Prison Town Church. [Map Link] Return to Zorayas and tell her what you have seen to continue.
    • NOTE: You must open the doors leaving Prison Town Church to continue in the questline.
  9. (OPTIONAL) Speak to Lady Tanith and choose the "Zorayas' troubles" option.
  10. Defeat Godskin Noble in the Temple of Eiglay [Map Link] to get the Serpent's Amnion.
  11. Give the Serpent's Amnion to Zorayas and she will disappear from the manor once you rest at the grace.
  12. (OPTIONAL - But crucial, see step #13 below) Speaking to Lady Tanith will have the new option "Zorayas' absence". She will give a Tonic of Forgetfulness to give to the upset Zorayas.
    • If you have already completed all the assassination contracts, you will not be able to get the Tonic till you defeat Rykard and have talked to her again. When she leaves the manor, she will leave the Tonic on her chair.
  13. Zorayas has moved to the Legacy Dungeon's interior, in a small room adjacent to a lava pit filled with cages and skulls, just before a rope ladder. If you have fully unlocked the area, you can reach it by taking the wooden elevator next to the Temple of Eiglay, getting off at a hidden doorway just below the lift's highest point, and heading straight through the room, out a window, and jump across a lava floe. She is inside the room directly across.
    1. If the elevator is not yet active, you can reach the lava floe (or unlock the elevator) by jumping off the balcony of the top floor of Temple of Eiglay.
      • To clarify - take the lift within the Temple of Eiglay (SE of the grace) up and go out through the door to reach the balcony. Jump down to the lava pit with slugs that leads to a rocky bridge you need to jump off, and then climb up the path afterwards. Hop across the lava to find a window on the left, but be ready for the Iron Virgin waiting behind the corner. Once inside there's a door to the right which leads to a bridge with a man-serpent - go passed him, the stairs, and then down the hall a bit to find a ladder in one of the windows to your left. You will find Rya in a small alcove at the bottom of it.
    2. You can also reach this room by taking the wooden elevator to the top, going straight ahead toward the man-serpent with the lava sword, and jumping out the windows on the left.
      • To clarify - Turn NW from the Temple of Eiglay grace to find the door which leads to the lift if you have access. Right before it reaches the top there is a door leading to an open room with an enemy inside where you will find a window to jump out of. Straight across is Rya's alcove.
  14. In her new location, the player is given a choice between three actions:.
    1. If you kill her, she will transform back into a snake and drop Daedicar's Woe.
    2. If you leave her alive and return after killing Rykard, she will have new dialogue. When you reset the area, she is gone and has left Daedicar's Woe and Zorayas' Letter in her place.
    3. If you give her the Tonic of Forgetfulness, she simply goes to sleep. After Rykard is killed and the Manor's inhabitants have all left, she will return to her original location in the Manor. Exhaust her dialogue and reload the area to find Daedicar's Woe in her place.
  15. If you get to Volcano Manor and complete her snake form questline before talking to Blackguard Big Boggart, the necklace won't trigger anything, so there is no reason to kill him for it(It is requested for his questline to buy it).
  16. If you kill Rykard before speaking to Rya in her room inside the dungeon, it appears that she will disappear from the manor.

 

Dialogue in Elden Ring: Rya

At Liurnia of the Lakes

  • Hello.
    It's rather chilly here, isn't it? My mistress sent me off on an errand...
    But I was accosted by a ruffian, and now I'm in a bind. Could I ask you to lend a hand, perhaps?
    That thug made off with a precious necklace. I need someone to retrieve it.
    Only... He, too, is Tarnished. If you've any qualms confronting your own, I shall find another...

Hear the Request

  • Ohh, thank you dearly. What a blessing that we've met like this.
    The thug should be resting at an abandoned home down the way...
    Please, I must have the necklace back.

Upon attacking / rolling / jumping

  • Please, stop, Brave Tarnished.
    You will only tire by striking this barrier.
    Besides I'm no foe of yours. Please think this over.
  • I see you've reconsidered. Thank goodness.

Give Rya's Necklace

  • Oh, yes, that is my missing necklace. Thank you kindly. I am in your debt.
    Did I forget to announce myself?
    I am Rya, in the service of Lady Tanith of the Volcano Manor.
    I seek stalwart Tarnished who might join our house. You are very brave yourself. Not only a steady hand,
    but a steady heart, merciless, even to your own kind. Such strength is precisely what my mistress seeks.
    Please, take this. (Volcano Manor Invitation)
  • Brave Tarnished, seek the Altus Plateau, the realm of the Erdtree.
    Most Tarnished are Doomed to wander the outskirts of the Lands Between, peering wistfully at the towering Erdtree...
    But you are no ordinary Tarnished. And once that is proven,
    the Volcano Manor will fully extend its invitation. To fight, amongst a family of champions.
  • Ohh, and... One more thing, only for you...
    This land of Liurnia is connected to the Altus Plateau by the Grand Lift of Dectus, beyond the High Road.
    But the lift has been defunct for an age, meaning there's no simple means of passage.
    Instead, you must seek the old ruins in the cliff.
    At the base of the valley near the Grand Lift, there's an old tunnel.
    It was excavated from both ends, linking Liurnia to the Altus Plateau.
    I have faith in you, A champion, through and throught.
    I do hope that we can meet again.

At the Grand Lift of Dectus/Lux Ruins

  • I've been waiting for you. I knew you had the stuff of champions.
    I hereby invite you to the Volcano Manor. Take my hand, and have audience with my mistress.
  • (Accept) Give me your hand.
    I will pray. That you follow the same path as Lady Tanith.

At Volcano Manor

  • (If she teleported you to Volcano Manor) Hello again. Brave Tarnished.
    As a scout, I am pleased to see you again here at the Volcano Manor.
    Under Lady Tanith's guidance, may you tread the path of valour.
  • (If she didn't teleport you) Hello again. Brave Tarnished.
    It is a shame that I did not beckon you here with my own hand, but I am pleased that we meet again, here at the Volcano Manor.
    Under Lady Tanith's guidance, may you tread the path of valour.
  • (If you haven't met her before) A pleasure to meet you. Brave Tarnished.
    I am Rya, the scout. Very pleased to welcome you to the Volcano Manor.
    Under Lady Tanith's guidance, may you tread the path of valour.

After completing the first Volcano Manor quest

  • Have you ever...heard any strange sounds here at the manor?
    Something beyond the walls, like breathing, or slithering scales...
    Oh fie what am I saying? It just isn't possible. I must be tired.
  • Sometimes I hear strange sounds beyond the walls. Like breathing, or slithering scales.
    Oh, perhaps I'm just feeling tired.

After completing the second Volcano Manor quest

  • Brave Tarnished, what is your business here? I'm afraid this is not a guest room.
    What's that peculiar look upon your face?
    Goodness, am I still a serpent? Oh, how dreadful... How dreadful indeed...
    Forgive my distress. I ought to be thanking you for treating me as usual, despite this appearance.
    Brave Tarnished. This is my true form. My real name is Zorayas.
    Please forgive the deception. Do understand. The duplicity is my own doing.
    Lady Tanith speaks no falsehoods, and the Volcano Manor is just as it seems.
  • Lady Tanith is my mother. I am told I was born by the grace of a glorious king.
    That my mother cherishes this form I inhabit. I am proud of what I am.
    But people are cruel. If they saw my true form, the wouldn't speak to me.
    And so I assume a guise when seeking new recruits.
    But you are not like the rest. 
  • My serpentine form, and the name Zorayas, were secrets known only to Lady Tanith and I.
    Now I share the secrets with you, as well. Please keep them safe from anyone else.

After speaking to Tanith and reloading the area

  • Um, oh, it's you. Forgive me. My mind never ceases to churn of late. Hmm, well... I know I can trust you...
    I saw something, slithering in the pitch black of night. It entered the room next to this one, and never came out.
    If I'm not mistaken, it took the form of a serpent, just like me...
    Does the Volcano Manor hide some secret, that Lady Tanith has kept from me?
    I realise that I shouldn't impose but, if you discover anything, would you please share?

Tell her of the dark side of Volcano Manor

  • Really... Oh, so there was a secret after all... Oh my...
    Lady Tanith, my own mother, has deceived me...

    Was I not... born by the grace of a king?

Giving her the Serpent's Amnion

  • I remember this scent, distinctly. Funny, isn't it.
    I am certain of it. I was born inside this. It's a part of my birth mother.
    You have my gratitude. Thanks to you, I am no longer afraid.
    I want to know. How I was born, and met Lady Tanith.
    One day, I hope to call her mother once again, this time from the bottom of my heart.

At Volcano Manor's dungeon

  • Oh, it's you... I'm afraid... there is something I must tell you.
    I was an unwanted child. Born not of grace, but of a hideous ritual.
    Something that can never be accepted, not by men, nor serpents. Even Lady Tanith shouldn't accept me.
    I know that you have done so much for me. But I wish to ask one last kindness. Kill me, please.
    I thought that I feared nothing. But this... Free me from this accursed frame.

Accept her request

  • Agh... Thank you... My champion... Mother...

Give Tonic of Forgetfulness

  • Yes, of course. You always were very kind.
  • Ahh... How delightfully sweet... And yet...

After Rykard is defeated & tonic was given

  • Oh, it's you. Heaven knows what happened here, but Lady Tanith, and all the Tarnished champions, are gone.
    It feels rather quiet without them. But with you here, things will be just fine.
  • I await Lady Tanith. I am her daughter, born by the grace of a great king. I do not wish to burden her, or cause concern.
    Brave Tarnished. Do tread the path of valour. I'm certain that this is what Lady Tanith wishes.

After Rykard is defeated and you leave her be

  • You're not willing to kill me, are you. Hah... You've always been so kind. And uncompromising.
  • I suppose I knew in my heart of hearts. How kind, and uncompromising, you always were.

      doesn't she technically count as a demigod since the man serpents were born after the snake ate rykard meaning she's possibly stronger than godrick and would have the best legit claim to be elden lord if she wanted to with your help?

        Stupid ****ing mechanic, why the hell would the quest go away when I had literally 0 knowledge she even existed

          This is one of the few quests in elden ring with a happy ending, and it's nice, she finally accept herself and moves on to tread the path of champions. Wish more quests were like this

            She gave me a "red insignia" and not an invitation. I'm not seeing this item anywhere else. Has anyone else had the same problem? I'm playing offline.

                  Plot-twist: Man-Serpents have a hive mind and all of them can turn into 'Rya', and it's a different one posing as her in every location you meet her in. That one on the walkway you blithely murdered? That was the Rya you talked to in Liurnia.

                  • Anonymous

                    By all means Rya, that giant volcano manor with towers, walls and basically the outside of a huge mountain castle really is just consisting of a few rooms and an upper floor dining room. I swear, girls sometimes... be it reptilian or human, all the same. And thanks for the gift... she tried, I guess. I'll still cherish it.

                      Kinda overrated even between this quests that have no reward but I'm not complaining, not every quest needs to have a ancient dragon smithing stone. Though i prefer Diallos or Boc's questline. Sellen and Millicent also have amazing storyline and voice acting.

                          Note for Step 8: " To proceed in the questline, enter the illusory wall in the room right of hers and reach the grace in Prison Town Church."
                          I got the option to tell the secret without reaching the grace. Entered with the Abductor Virgin and made my way to the Temple of Eigley, didnt start the boss fight, and raised the bridge back to closed Prison Town Church door. Maybe the trigger is in the area of this grace?

                              My justification:
                              Kill Rya: I'm not going to do that. I get the impression that she is still a teenager, so her asking you to kill her could just be an overreaction given her immaturity and, given the consequence is irreversible, I'll pass.

                              Don't give her the potion: She's tormented, suffering, and it's a dangerous world out there (don't ask me how all the unarmed or lightly armed NPCs make it from place to place). As she goes on her journey she might harm herself or come to harm. I know only this choice gives you her letter, and while I would like it, that's just for my own gratification.

                              Give her the potion: She's ends back in Volcano Manor where it's safe. She found out about her past once, she can do it again, and this time, a bit older, she might be better able to process it. On the other hand even if she chooses to take after Tanith, as she doesn't know what her mother really got up to there is no guarantee that she will become like her. If you keep Tanith alive Rya might even be able to change her mind, or soften her up given how sweet she is. And if Rya does become the bane of all existence, well, I've defeated Demi-Gods before, I can defeat a serpent.

                                The fact that she's too dumb to actually give a cardinal direction and simply says "down the way" in the middle of a swamp with no roads, is proof that she deserves getting Dung Eater'd more than Boggart ever did.

                                      It would've been nice if this questline actually did anything. Like you can get the daedicar's woe regardless of what you do to Zorayas, and it's not even a useful talisman either way. I wish making Zorayas happy had like any impact on Tanith, or like gave you a different reward or something. Zorayas is one of my favorite characters and her quest is as involved as Nepheli's but you don't get anything nearly as useful as ancient dragon smithing stones. Just feels like missed potential.

                                        If you haven't gotten the Tonic of Forgetfullness but you advanced the questline enough for Rya to go to the inhard dungeon, you can still get it after you killed Rykhard. Go back to the manor, exhaust Tanith dialogue and reload, she'll leave the Tonic on her chair.

                                        You'll still find Rya back there, if she haven't left yet, and will be able to give the Tonic.

                                            There are so many dumb, long and boring quests in this game. All pointless., just to stall your journey and make the game artificially long.

                                                      Regarding questline point 5, and its trigger point; after being teleported by an Abductor in Raya Lucaria (to the Subterranian Inquisition Chamber under Volcano Manor), then defeating the Iron Maidens boss and subsequently discovering the Seethwater River site of grace, at this point Rya was still at her original location in Liurnia and her quest - including the Boilprawn Shack - was still available to start from the beginning. Though, I can't remember whether I actually _rested_ at the site of grace following the Iron Maidens, or only discovered it.

                                                      This had triggered other Altus Plateau events. The Radahn festival was now started, and Brother Corhyn announced he was leaving the Roundtable Hold. But Rya was still in initial state.

                                                      TL;DR, you won't miss Rya's content just because of defeating the Iron Maidens, if you don't try to progress much further right away.

                                                        If you're trying for the ending where Rya leaves the manor and she hasn't left yet, even after killing Rykard and Tanith's Knight and resetting the area then passing time seems to do so.

                                                            There is no mention about the way to reach Altus Plateu through the Duo Abductors fight. I gained access that way and could not find Rya at Lux ruins.

                                                                If you got to altus plateau by getting abducted she will be at lux ruins besides the erdtree grazing hills site of grace, right up the stairs

                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                    When she relocates in the legacy dungeon do NOT try to run past the virgin abductor in front of the room she moves to. I did that and before talking to her, heard the thing still following me. Went outside to fight it and as I brushed past it, it did the spinning attack and killed Rya in 1 hit.

                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                      I completed the entire questline and SPOILER -- Killed Rykard and the knight and possibly the Countess too and when I returned to the manor the tonic was sitting in her chair, Rya was also killed for the Woe XP

                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                        I guess the good ending for the questline is to leave her be and not give ger the Tonic of Forgetfullness. The following dialogue seems to be the most positive and when comparing to the other option, giving her the Tonic of Forgetfulness, she'll be waiting for the other Volcano Manor residents to return, which doesn't seem to be happen unless the questline will continue in a DLC / Patch.

                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                          I scrolled through a few comments (down to around September) and didn't see this mentioned. If you take the Tonic of Forgetfulness you will NOT have the option to kill her or leave her be. The only two options I'm getting after multiple times talking to her is "Give Tonic of Forgetfulness" and "Don't give it".

                                                                          • Anonymous

A hidden underpath 10 seconds past the first area's ONLY virgin abductor, between Godskin (Eiglay) and Rykard's boss arena. Conversely, take the lift, outside Eiglay, up to the top and hop of either side of the walkway outside (again, 10 second walk).

                                                                            • Anonymous

                                                                              The quest will continue on as usual whether to give it to her, kill her, or let her be.

                                                                              • Anonymous

                                                                                She will then appear in her snake form in the room across the hall from where she normally is.

                                                                                • Anonymous

                                                                                  For those who goes to Atlus both way ( aka take the lift and then through the tunnel, or tunnel then lift. IDK I have OCD and a fear of lost loot, I guess), check both locations where Rya will spawn. Aka Lux ruin or to the left of the top of the lift.

                                                                                  I took the tunnel, then the lift, but Rya not spawn at both. Then I teleport to the bottom of the lift, took it up again. Then she appeared at the top of the lift.

                                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                                    • Anonymous

Turns out I wasn't missing much. All that for a worthless talisman and a piece of inventory clutter? Yeah, no.

I went looking for Bernahl after he didn't invade at farum azula. the tonic of forgetfulness was on the chair Tanith always sat in, and I was able to give it to Rya

Bernahl wasn't invading at Farum Azula when I fast travelled to volcano manor the tonic of forgetfulness was on the chair Tanith sat in and I did get the prompt to choose if I wanted to give it to Zorayas or not.

After killing Rykard, when Tanith leaves the manor, the Tonic of Forgetfulness will be on the chair she previously sat in. This may require you to have done dialogue up to a certain point.

After that I took the second contract letter but accidentially found and killed Raykard before finishing that. Talked to Tanith, got the item on the chair after she left, but couldnt find Rya after that. Is she anywhere else or am I done with her?
