Overview[]
The Derelict Highchurch is a location in the East Luminant, it can be found above the Ancient Rotlands. It can be accessed from a broken bridge connecting to near the Songseeker Temple in the Songseeker Wilds, or from two Union Hooks on the backside. Four Songseekers will spawn at the front of the church, which must be killed as a part of Ezra's quest.
It appears normal on the surface, however, one can open a hatch beneath the lectern, leading into a library, You can interact with some bookcases, to open a secret entrance, or just use a terrain breaking mantra on the bookshelves guarding the entrance to a room with a crucified Celestial, and Samael, who is crucial to receiving the Starkindred Oath.
The Celestial's blood is also a crucial part of obtaining the Saltchemist Oath. You can also find the Shadowcast Trainer, Beatra, in the garden to the left of the church. (She doesn't give Shadowcast, Nostor will.)
