Complete the Restless Spirits quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard by following our walkthrough. Learn how to find and wrangle wisps in the Necropolis Halls, defeat enemies, and claim your rewards.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Talk to Emmrich after recruiting him to start the quest and unlock the Necropolis Halls.
  2. 2
    Enter the Hollow Belfry, Lower. You will find four quest markers pointing to different wisps.
  3. 3
    Western Wisp: Open a door south of the receptacle gate. Find a note "An Overview of SPirits Malign" on a table. Light two braziers at the southern end of the room. A wisp will appear; use Emmrich’s “Placate Wisp” ability to draw it out, then escort it to a receptacle near the gate.
  4. 4
    Southwestern Wisp: Go to the southwestern corner of the hexagonal chamber. Enter a door to the southern end of the chamber. A barrier blocks progress west. Turn east and pull a lever. Exit the room and enter the door to the northwest (now open). Destroy four crystals: one behind crates to the northwest, one south beyond a broken fence, one in the southernmost room behind boxes to the southeast, and the barrier crystal to the west. Loot a chest along the western edge, pick up a wisp, and deposit it in a receptacle.
  5. 5
    Southeastern Wisp: Go to the southeastern corner. Enter the western room, destroy crates, and pull a lever hidden behind them. Exit and enter the now-accessible eastern room. Turn southwest, destroy boards, and grab an "Impossible Map" (+50 Caretaker Power), which spooks a wisp. Exit and head west to find a "Veil Instability." Use Lucanis to conjure a ramp to reach the wisp floating above. Escort it to the receptacle gate.
  6. 6
    Eastern Wisp: Head to the eastern edge and enter a room. Light a wall sconce near a table where a wisp appears. Light two more sconces on the southeastern wall (destroy junk for one). Repeat along the northeastern wall. Light a fifth sconce on the floor to the southwest, behind junk near the first brazier. The wisp will appear above a corpse on the table; lure it and place it in the final receptacle.
  7. 7
    Once all wisps are in receptacles, a corpse animates and opens the gate to the northwest. Head downstairs and defeat an Orbiting Envy Demon and Shades.
  8. 8
    Press on to the northwest to find a sealed door that starts the quest "Pinnacle of its Kind."
Tips
