Walkthrough

1
Find Sebastian on the North Fort overlooking his home hamlet. He will explain that his Uncle Solomon, a former Auror, refuses to confront Ranrock loyalists, and Sebastian is more concerned about Anne's well-being.
2
Enter Uncle Solomon’s home with Sebastian. After a confrontation between Sebastian and Solomon, and Anne's words, the quest progresses.
3
As you approach the estate ruins in Feldcroft, Loyalist Warriors will appear. Use fire Spells like Incendio. A second wave of Loyalists, led by a Commander, will appear. Use purple Spells like Accio and Depulso against the Commander, or use explosive red barrels if available.
4
Sebastian will take you to the site where Anne was cursed. She attempted to save villagers and was cursed before Sebastian or Solomon could intervene.
5
Explore the ruined estate for clues about the magic that cursed Anne and why Ranrock Loyalists are mining in the area. Cast Revelio to highlight points of interest in blue.
6
Sebastian will lead you into the ruined building and to a cliff face, revealing that Feldcroft is the hamlet saved by The Keepers and the home of Professor Isidora Morganach.
7
Explore the ruins further to find a small passage blocked by boulders leading to a cellar. Inside, find seven letters from Isidora detailing her moral struggle with a new kind of magic that removes pain.
8
On the East side of the cellar, launch a basic attack at a paperwork and bookcase to reveal a passage. On the right, a picture frame holds a portal to the Hogwarts Undercroft.
9
In the Undercroft, you'll find evidence that Ranrock Loyalists have been there. A painting cabinet reveals an Ancient Magic sigil. The central artwork is missing, with only a piece of cloth resembling a map with Keeper runes left.
10
After determining there's no Ancient Magic surrounding Anne, look to a triptych and the possibility of a Slytherin Scriptorium for answers.
