Blasphemous 2 Sealed Envelope: How to Lift the Curse of the Unforgiven

Blasphemous 2 Sealed Envelope: How to Lift the Curse of the Unforgiven

Blasphemous 2 is an obtuse game, but its sealed envelope quest might be the most opaque thing about it. This side quest doesn’t even notify the player of its existence and forces users to read the lore of the item to even get a hint that it holds some sort of task. Here’s how to lift the curse of the Unforgiven in Blasphemous 2 and unlock the “A Leap of Faith” trophy or achievement, as well as what to do with the sealed envelope.

How to find the sealed envelope quest answer in Blasphemous 2

Examining the sealed envelope turns it in the cursed letter, which acts as a hint that it is some sort of quest. It asks players to “seek redemption” by “performing an act of humility.” And to do this, players have to “seek out the largest looking glass” and “prostrate” themselves before the reflection.

It’s a strange objective, but go to Two Moons to figure it out. Go to the above spot on the map and kneel in front of the mirror for a few seconds. The positioning is tricky so be sure to line it up. Doing it correctly will yield another letter.

How to solve the cursed letter page two

The second cursed letter asks players to “reflect” upon their sins when in the presence of a “great pit” with “violet petals.” Those are two dead giveaways, as the violet petals are in reference to the giant slender woman in Profundo Lamento. Go to the top of that pit, which is technically in the City of the Blessed name, and wait at the side of pit for a few seconds in the same spot as in the above picture. The game will give the player another letter after a few seconds.

How to solve the cursed letter page three

The third cursed letter has players looking for a “lugubrious place in which the air seemed not to move,” which could describe almost any area in the game. It then speaks of an “old bell lying broken on the ground.” This might seem like it’s one of the blue bells in the game, but it’s actually just a bell that one of the enemies uses. Go to the Mother of Mothers to the spot on the above map and strike the empty bell a few times. A wall will open up with the next letter.

How to solve the cursed letter page four

The fourth cursed letter is about finding a “skull” that “scrutinizes all with its last living eye like a grim cyclops.” The player must then pass “under it twice more.” This is one of the ones that’s hardest to spot since it is so small. Go to the City of the Blessed Name and go to the shop, as seen in the above map. Walk back and forth across the shop’s entrance a few times (but don’t go in). The game should stop you after a few runs and you should have the final letter.

How to solve the cursed letter page five

The last cursed page is a bit grim and speaks of a “towering cliff” with a “cool sea breeze.” There is one area that’s made specifically for this letter and it is, fittingly, right above the most aquatic area of the game. Go to Profundo Lamento to the little blip on the map that’s to the left of the elevator.

Jump off the tower and the game will say the “curse of the Unforgiven has been lifted.” This will finish the quest and unlock the “A Leap of Faith” achievement or trophy. It will also yield the Seguiriya to the Memory of Your Eyes spell.
