Finding The Carian Knight’s Sword

First, you’ll want to travel to the Northwest ofLiurnia of the Lakes. You can either make your way onto the West strip from the middle of the swamp or by riding southward fromCaria Manorif you have unlocked that Site of Grace already. It is tempting to start at the bottom of the strip to the West of Liurnia and work your way up, but you will be blocked by rocks and need to backtrack.

As you travel south, a surprisingly challengingknight on horsebackwill be in your path. The choice to fight him is yours; if you’re still at a relatively low level, you may want to ride past him. After defeating or cruising by him, keep making your way south until you come across acarriage that is being pulled by two giant trolls. To make the carriage come to a halt, kill one of the trolls (preferably from a distance since they won’t be able to hit you). Once the carriage is stopped, ride around to the back side of the carriage, and you will see achest. Open the chest, and you will obtain the Carian Knight’s Sword.
