Your first loop through Paris

In 1499, Rose Belmont follows Trevor into a burning Paris. The whip is both a weapon and a way to swing through the city. New movement skills make earlier ledges and sealed routes worth revisiting.

  1. Reach The Fallen at Gate to the Catacombs. Collect Fallen’s Key and Holy Cross, then leave right into Abandoned Sewers to learn Arcane Whip.
  2. Use the new anchors and the Bridge of the Millers waterwheel to reach the Burned District. Prison Tower leads toward Joan; the cemetery branch leads toward Medusa.
  3. At the tower roof, Joan supplies Warrior’s Key and Infernal Pyre. Learn Holy Light on the following stairs, then use it to clear Chaos Shards.
  4. Follow the cemetery’s Roman Baths and Hot Springs to Medusa for Prophetess’s Key. Bring all three keys back to the gate.
Check the three-key gateReturn for Cestus

Read the map, then choose your task

Areas group the guide’s named subareas. Mirrors of Life are save points, and Ferryman docks connect travel routes. Tracker is for checking what you collected. Route is for confirming what your game currently allows; its facts stay separate from checklist marks.

Open Equipment > Armoury to change weapons. Relics modify combat or exploration with passive effects. Arcana carries a spell, while associated movement abilities may require a separate conversation or tutorial after an encounter.
