Millicent
Church of the Plague (Caelid)
Rotten Winged Sword or Millicent's Prosthesis
Help or Invade
Millicent is a young woman afflicted by the Scarlet Rot who seeks answers about her origin. Her questline takes you across the entire Lands Between, from the rotting swamps of Caelid to the sacred grounds of Miquella's Haligtree. The quest culminates in a critical choice that determines which of two excellent talismans you receive.
Obtain the Unalloyed Gold Needle from Commander O'Neil at Swamp of Aeonia.
He repairs the needle. Give the repaired needle to Millicent at the Church of the Plague.
Millicent appears at the grace. Exhaust her dialogue.
Find the Valkyrie's Prosthesis on a corpse. Give it to Millicent at Erdtree-Gazing Hill.
Help Millicent defeat the Godskin Apostle boss. She is summonable for the fight.
Speak with her at the grace site.
FINAL CHOICE: Put down gold summon sign to help her (get Rotten Winged Sword Insignia) or red sign to invade her (get Millicent's Prosthesis).
If you kill the Ulcerated Tree Spirit at Haligtree before finishing the quest, Millicent dies. Gowry can be killed early — do not attack him. The choice at the end is irreversible, so pick based on your build.
Pro Tip
Help Millicent (gold sign) for Rotten Winged Sword Insignia — it is better for fast weapons like katanas, curved swords, and claws. Invade her (red sign) for Millicent's Prosthesis (+5 DEX) if you are doing a DEX build. You can only get one per playthrough.
