After following the quest marker for a few hundred meters, players will arrive at the statue mentioned by Althea to find that it’s surrounded by 20 porcelain vases. To activate the statue, players will need to destroy all of these vases using basic spells. To find all 20, players should stand in the center of the ruins near the statue and work their way around the inner walls, then do a quick lap of the perimeter to pick off the final few vases.
Once all twenty vases have been destroyed (as per the counter in the top right-hand corner of the screen), the statue will come to life and players will be able to interact with it in order to enter one ofHogwarts Legacy’s three Battle Arenes. Doing so is entirely optional, however, so those who are in a hurry can just return to Althea at this point to turn in the quest and claim their reward.
Thankfully, there’s aFloo Flames locationon the outskirts of Irondale, so players will be able to fast travel back there in just a matter of seconds. Upon their return, Althea will express her delight at having finally learned the statue’s secrets and players will receive 180 XP and the Column - Beige wand handle as a reward for their efforts.
