Volcano Manor is a legacy dungeon high on the slopes of Mt. Gelmir. It is the home of the Recusants, a band of Tarnished who rebel against the Erdtree. Lady Tanith runs the manor and offers contracts to hunt other Tarnished. The Godskin Noble guards the temple, and Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy waits at its heart. Most runs reach the manor after the Academy of Raya Lucaria or during the climb onto the Altus Plateau.

Lore
Volcano Manor was once the seat of Praetor Rykard. He and his Recusants waged war against the Erdtree and its Golden Order. In time Rykard fed himself to a great serpent and became the Lord of Blasphemy. Most of his old followers left him after this change.
Rykard's consort, Lady Tanith, stayed behind. She keeps the manor running as the base of a new group of Recusants. Strong and ruthless Tarnished are invited to join. Those who prove themselves are offered an audience with Rykard, who means to devour them. Soldiers of the Royal Capital still camp along the slopes of Mt. Gelmir, besieging the manor.
Guide
- Reach the manor on foot across Mt. Gelmir, through Rya's teleport, or by letting an Abductor Virgin in the academy carry the character away.
- Accept Lady Tanith's invitation to receive the Drawing-Room Key.
- Complete her assassination contracts to be sent straight to Rykard.
- For the other path, find the hidden wall in the room behind the key's door and drop into the burning Prison Town.
- Lower the bridge as a shortcut, then cross the Guest Hall and the temple.
- Defeat the Godskin Noble to open the Temple of Eiglay Site of Grace.
- Pick up the Serpent-Hunter at the start of the arena and fight Rykard.
