The Elden Ring Hornsent quest is one of the darker ones in the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, and that's saying a lot. If it isn't clear from all of the burnt towns and impaled bodies, Messmer's army weren't exactly kind to the Hornsent who lived here. This quest is all about helping the worm-masked Miquella companion avenge his slaughtered people.
It also intersects with the Leda quest to some extent, as well as with Ansbach's, since Hornsent gives you the maps that show you where to find more Miquella Crosses. I'll explain how the Hornsent quest works step-by-step below, plus include a little summary so you can decide up front if you want to follow it. This guide will, of course, contain spoilers for Hornsent's questline.
