To complete the Iron Wayfarer’s storyline, you need to do the following:

• Meet the Iron Wayfarer in Redcopse Village Entrance of the Abandoned Redcopse, next to the Vestige of Hannelore. You will do this as part of the tutorial.
• You can next find him in the Abandoned Chapel, inside a cave at the Redcopse Windmill, near the Vestige of Marco the Axe. This is part of the tutorial on how to use Vestige Seeds.
• You later find him in Lower Calrath, on the right side of the main street, near the Vestige of Lydia the Numb Witch.
• He appears later in the Upper Calrath area, nea the market place defended by Ravagers and the Snake Sniper people. He talks about what happened to the City and whether he is a monster or not.
• You can find him again being sad near the tower ladder at the end of the Upper City with a Umbral Scouring Memory. Going up the ladder and follwing the path leads back to the Skyrest Bridge
• This NPC moves to the overlooking spot near the Vestige of Ferrers the Charred, which is the vestige at the very start of the Manse of Hallowed Brothers as you ride the elevator up.
• This NPC moves to the arena of the boss Rapturous Huntress of the Dusk and will take the Rune of Adyr.
• This NPC moves to the gates before you enter Bramis Castle and becomes a secondary boss.

The Iron Wayfarer only becomes a boss and becomes visible from the Upper Calrath City if you defeat Dervla in the Revelation Depths. Failing to defeat Derva results in The Iron Wayfarer failing to appear from the Manse onwards. If you’re doing the Umbral ending, you will also need to finish off The Iron Wayfarer in the Fief by finding his spirit in the Umbral. Killing him gives an item for the Umbral ending.
