The image below showcases the path towards Windmill Village from the Grand Lift of Dectus. You won’t be able to reach this village before activating the lift with its Medallion.

Be warned that at top of the village there is a boss waiting for you, and it’s going to be a pretty tough fight in two phases. The boss is called Godskin Apostle and he has pretty fast moves. He also uses magic whenever you attempt to heal yourself with a Flask!

Once you enter the village, the NPCs inside the village won’t attack you. Actually, you will be surprised that they are all celebrating and dancing without reacting to your presence. However, this will soon change once one of the dogs in the village spot you. All nearby NPCs will suddenly become hostile and attack you, though you can just run away to the top to meet the boss himself!

Elden Ring is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
