Once players are at the Church of Cuckoo Site of Grace, they need to head out down the hallway and make a left out into the graveyard outside. Once here, players will need to fight multiple skeleton enemies that can cause a problem if they are not dealt with.

Players can simply run or dodge but should be warned the skeletons cause a lot of damage if they strike the player.

Cross the bridge

Once the player heads through the graveyard and down the main path, they should cross the nearby bridge. On the other side of the bridge are more skeletons the player will need to fight.

Once they are dispatched, the player should again head to the left and jump off the side of the cliff onto a ledge below. Once on the ledge, players should follow the path that leads to a cave.

Once the player makes it to the cave, Marionette Soldiers will attack them. Players can fight them or flee for a brief moment, so they despawn, and then they will be able to walk up back to the top of the cave to claim the Marionette Soldier Ashes.

Once players have the ashes in hand, they will then be able to summon the powerful archer that will help them greatly in combat.
