I accidently attacked Hornsent Grandam

celestial dew at the church of vows

EDIT: I had hit her by acccident, but ran away. She was slumped over, but not dead.. Others do say it works if you actually killed her. If you just rolled near her with a briar piece equipped like I did, then you can run away and it will leave her alive.

I'm not sure if this is because it's from the DLC, or this specific NPC, but it doesn't work for them. Anything DLC-specific that might work?

It's probably bugged, then. You'll have to wait for them to patch in celestial dew working for DLC npc's, or do NG+.

Edit: Nvm Archdeacon has it.

it works.
i accidentally attacked Ansbach in the shadowkeep storeroom because he was just standing there menacingly reading a book (really it was because i was absentmindedly cleaning up all the annoying goblins and shadows and didn't expect a friend there) and he turned hostile.
teleported to church of vows > absolution > friend again.

i think Grandam is unique in her behavior even if you attack her.
she won't remain hostile forever, she will say something about her not being your enemy and you get another chance to put on the divine beast hat and talk to her.
try resting at grace and go back there again.

if you killed her, well, you know the drill.. ng+ in that case because you can't revive npcs.

Not really an important NPC. You just don't get any tasty Scorpion Stew, a useless incantation, and 3 Furnace Visages. Probably why absolution doesn't work. Ansbach is an important ally with a long quest line. If he turns hostile it really hurts you later.
