Elden Ring: How To Enter Oridys’s Rise

Oridys's Rise in Elden Ring

Elden Ring has certainly lived up to the anticipation. It’s breaking records and praise is pouring in. And much of that praise is being directed at the game’s incredible setting – the Lands Between. The Lands Between is packed full of interesting and awe-inspiring locations that are dying to be explored. One of these is Oridys’s Rise, which is located on the south coast of the map. You will probably have come across it on your way to Castle Morne. Oridys’s Rise is surrounded by a pack of wolves and entry is blocked by a blue fog door. Thankfully, a cryptic clue hints at how to gain entry to the tower. So, this our quick guide covering how to enter Oridys’s Rise in Elden Ring.

How To Enter Oridys’s Rise in Elden Ring

The pack of wolves outside Oridys’s Rise are relatively easy to dispatch. But they aren’t the real obstacle to getting inside the lofty tower. The main problem is the blue fog door. The glowing book on the imp statue at the foot of the stairs leading to the door offers a useful clue. “Seek three wise beasts”, it reads. But which beasts does it refer to? And how do they play into getting through the fog door?

This is how to enter Oridys’s Rise in Elden Ring. You need to find three tortoises. From the glowing book, turn around and you will see the first one – attack it to make it disappear. The second tortoise is located behind the glowing book in a bush on the left side of the stairs. Finally, walk around to the south side of the tower to a small pond. The third Tortoise is invisible but is located right in the centre. Once you’ve found and attacked all three tortoises, return to the stairs. The blue door will be gone and you can head inside Oridys’s Rise.

Once inside Oridys’s Rise, climb the ladder before running up the stairs on the outside of the tower to a room at the top. This is where you will find a valuable Memory Stone.
