After that, the Blood Gate will be destroyed, leading you to the cave. In that cave, you will find a Moon Seal, which you will have to place in front of the statue. Doing so will give you the “Open” Word of Power in Midnight Suns.

Reveal Word Of Power

Reveal Word of Power allows you to create bridges. It is impossible to get other Words of Powers without Reveal. As such, these Words of Power are achieved one by one. 

After achieving the Open Word of Power, head to Agatha’s Altar and use the Open Word of Power to open its door. Moving further, you will find the Elemental Altar, where you must place the four Elemental Rods to acquire the Moon Seal. All four Elemental Rods are pinpointed in the image below:-

To clear out corrupted vines, you will need the “Purify” Word of Power. However, to achieve it, you will need to progress through story quests and complete The Deep Dark Venomous Depths quest, which will give you a Venom Sample. Also, you will need to help Agatha to find Stained Soil.

To initiate this, head to Hiram Shaw’s Church in Valley of the Winds. You will find Agatha in the Church. After speaking with Agatha, you need to use Open Word of Power to open the door.

After that, you will have to lead Dr. Strange to that barrier you found. Dr. Strange will inspect the area on his own, so you will have to sleep and wait for another day.

After a day, you will have to talk to Dr. Strange again [Note: You might need to sleep more than once]. If you have completed the main storyline, The Deep Dark Venomous Depths quest, you can retrieve the Vial of Symbiote, which will be in the Forge, which will dispel the ward (remove the barrier).

Head to the Barrier again, dispel the ward, and explore the cave. After that, inspect the paper, which is the drawings, you found while entering the church.

Head back to the library, and talk to Agatha. Afterward, you will need to head to the Elemental Altar, where you will again interact with Agatha and also get the Moon Seal.

Teleport to Lilith’s Garden, and follow the red light coming from the sky. After reaching there, you will find Agatha in front of the Blood Gate. After opening the Blood Gate, you will have to face a Challenge Mission: Trial Of The Elder Gods: Set. 

Wrap Up

Every time you complete a challenge mission, the Blood Gate will break down, leading into you a cave. You will find a statue and a place where you can place the seal in that cave. However, you might fail while completing the challenge. That’s why we recommend you Max Level your character before attempting because you can attempt one challenge a day. 

You can only play with Hunter and Charlie while doing a challenge mission. So, why not have the best Hunte build? Moreover, you can run out of Credits while sparring with your opponents. Therefore, it is important to Farm Credits beforehand. 

You can even build the Best Characters to fight Venom and complete The Deep Dark Venomous Depths quest, which is necessary to get Purify Word of Power in Midnight Suns.
