Where to find this Limgrave NPC.
Want to know how to complete the Elden Ring Kenneth Haight’s quest? You can find Kenneth early on in Limgrave, but as with many other Elden Ring quests, some of the steps require you to explore further into the game and intertwine with other NPC storylines.
Kenneth’s quest is pretty short, and you can get the majority of it done before you step out of the starting area. There are a few prerequisites to finish it though, and you’ll need to progress almost to the end of the game to see its conclusion. Here’s how to complete the Kenneth Haight quest in Elden Ring, and where to find him.
Elden Ring: Blaidd’s quest
Elden Ring: Millicent’s quest
Elden Ring: Sellen’s quest
Elden Ring: Fia’s quest
Elden Ring: Irina’s quest
Elden Ring: Varre’s quest
Elden Ring: Hyetta’s quest
Elden Ring: Thops’ quest
You first meet Kenneth to the north of the Mistwood area in Limgrave. If you head along the road to the east from the Mistwood Outskirts Site of Grace, you can hear him shouting for help from the top of a ruin. When you talk to him, he’ll ask for your help at Fort Haight and in return, he’ll give you a reward.
Fort Haight is located to the southeast of Mistwood. Clearing this area is pretty easy, even early on. There’s a Mad Pumpkin Head enemy outside, but you can run straight past it. You can also loot one half of the Dectus Medallion from a chest on one of the upper levels.
Once you’ve cleared it out, return to Kenneth’s previous location and he’ll hand over the Erdsteel Dagger as a thank you. He’ll also ask you to pledge your service to him. If you refuse, you can speak to him again to change your mind, otherwise, accept his offer to continue his questline and he’ll tell you to meet him at Fort Haight where he’ll knight you.
If head straight to Fort Haight and talk to him without progressing further into the game, he’ll tell you he can’t knight you until a new ruler has been found for Limgrave.
Talk to both of them and Nepheli will hand over an Ancient Dragon Smithing Stone. If Gatekeeper Gostoc is still alive at this point, you can now access his shop.

Sarah’s earliest gaming memories involve playing Jet Set Willy on the ZX Spectrum at a friend’s house. These days, and when not writing guides, most of her spare time goes into MMOs—though she’s quite partial to JRPGs too. She has spent much of the last decade playing the likes of Star Wars: The Old Republic, TERA, Final Fantasy 14, and World of Warcraft. Sarah has been writing about games for several years and, before joining PC Gamer, freelanced for the likes of TechRadar, GamingBible, and Rock Paper Shotgun. One of her fondest hopes is to one day play through the ending of Final Fantasy X without breaking down into a sobbing heap. She probably has more wolves in Valheim than you.
