How to Complete the Under a Red Moon Quest
” When the moon bleeds and the fiends are reborn / The monks will invite you as they have sworn. But first you must stand on the pedestal bare / With nothing between you and the night air.”
Solve Kass’s Riddle
For this riddle, you will simply need to wait until there is a Blood Moon, then stand on the platform underneath the giant mushroom Kass is standing on. To tell if it will be a Blood Moon, travel to the Dueling Peaks Stable in west Necluda and speak with Hino. When there is a Blood Moon, he’ll tell you that something is going to happen tonight.
Once the riddle has been solved, the Mijah Rokee Shrine will rise from the ground. Inside, you’ll find a modest test of strength. Inside, you’ll find a Frostblade in the chest just before the Spirit Orb.
