How to go to Volcano manor?

[Charlemagne]

Last time I played Rya was at Lux Ruins. Now she wasn't there, I also took the Dectus Lift but didn't see here there either.
Maybe it is because I went on to explore other areas already resolved the capital and I'm currently in the Giant Frost lands? How do I get to VM if I can't find Rya?

Find Rya in Liurnia and get an invite to the manor from her, simple

[Charlemagne]

Or maybe because Millicent is already there?
I have the invitation.

Thanks, interesting workaround. Rya not being there is probably a bug due to some quest advancement.

She can also be at the grand lift of dectus, upper end. I'm not sure if progressing anything else makes her move away, she should be in one of the two locations.

Rya leaves if you did not talk to her at the lakes (before going further) and probably would not wait at the Altus forever too.

If she is not there you either go via the mountain into front-door of the manor, or you can go to the bottom of the academy and get eaten by the wheeled huggy thing there (the grab should "kill" you for the success).

I hate these quest mix-ups. How would you know that you have to do something right away, or do things in an exact order? Suppose you're playing the first time and are not searching wikis and stuff. Would probably miss the trip to Volcano altogether.

It's called exploring. You might miss stuff. You might not. And yeah. A lot of ppl found volcano manor organically on a blind first playthrough.

Miss Volcano - unlikely, there is a wide road leading there (the one to the front door).

Missing quests - absolutely, I missed Rya in both 1st locations for example on my 1st run.

I think generally people do 1 full blind run and then open wiki to see what was missed and how to get it on later cycles or a new run.

You know that you can just walk to Volcano Manor, right?

she goes to whichever one you initially arrived in altus via

Rya is at Lux Ruins only if you get to Altus through Ruin-Strewn Precipice rather than the Grand Lift of Dectus. You can get to the Volcano Manor in two other ways:
- getting 'abducted'
-from the Erdtree-Gazing Hill grace, go to the Seethewater River grace and follow the road around mount Gelmir until you reach the 'Bull'. Then, from there, drop down north-west and head south

That is what I do. Blind the first time and then I look somewhere to see what I missed.

But I still get quests wrong on each play thru. That's FROMs way.

OK I haven't gotten there yet but i can say going through Raya Lucaria and being eaten by the virgin is WAAAY more intreresting than just being teleported there
