While many of these Order members can be slain without breaking muchof a sweat, they aren’t always easy to locate. Thus, we’ve created this guide as a roadmap. It will highlight the details and locations of the Children of Danu as well as their clues.
About The Children Of Danu Quest
You’ll automatically have theChildren of Danu menu— and eventually, information as well as locations — available once thePotion of Bloodquest is initiated. This is after the halfway point of the Wrath of the Druids campaign,following the Foothold in Connacht quest.So you’ll need to be well into the campaign before attempting to complete this.
Once Potion of Blood is initiated, you’ll be able to speak withDeirdre,who you’ll need to complete the Children of Danu quest.
Alltenof these Children are part of the quest calledChildren of Danu.All Children will drop anAmber Shardafter slaying them, which Eivor will need to hand in toDeirdre in Asfinn, in the Connacht region.Upon killing the final member and turning in the shards, you’ll get theDawn of the Druidsachievement or trophy, as well as aMythical Electric Spear,theGae Bolg.
At least for the non-quest members, assassinating the Children of Danu can bedone in any order,though often you will getcluesforanotherOrder member upon killing one.
Children Of Danu As Part Of Quests
In addition to Order members that are integrated into the main quests of Wrath of the Druids, the majority of the Children of Danu can be found scattered about Irelandseparatefrom quests. This means you’ll have to personally seek them out on your own, either by collectingclues, or by finding them directly.
Butthe first four Children listed here(along with some of their clues) areintertwinedin various quests. Most cannot be met until reaching certain points during the campaign.
Cluesoffer leads to the location of the Order members, which, after getting them all (usually two or three)for each member,will bring up their location.These Clues aren’t necessary to get, as you can also find themdirectlyby reading this guide. However, for the sake of detail, we will also include the location for each clue, should you prefer to pinpoint the exact location viawaypoints.
Getting clues for waypoints can be useful, as some of these Children will be on the move and won’t rest in a single spot. As is the case with the Children of Danu members themselves,some of these clues can be found as part of quests, while some are hidden throughout the map independently.
The Wren - Niamh The Poet
Gallery images show the locations of the notes and Children in the order they are listed (left to right). Doesnotshow clue locations as part of quests or killing other Order members.
Now to meetThe Wrenherself. As with any of the Order members when all clues are found, you can now set a waypoint and track her using the Children of Danu menu. Or you can head directly to her, useOdin’s Sight,and it should pull up her location if you are close. She is roughly at thecenter of Connacht,roaming in thetown ofRathcroghan.
The Cursed - Setnae, Druid Of The Mists
When concluding Into the Fog, a cutscene will initiate and The Cursed can then be killed. Basically, as long as you follow the two main questlines mentioned, you should have no trouble locating this Order member.
The Seed - Becc Mac Nath-i, He Of The Oceans
The Seed can be found in thenorthern peninsulas of Ulster— the small one slightly to theeastin the region). He is in theDunseverick Fortresswhich rests in theport ofInch Lough Neagh.He is typically residing in themain building in this area.You may want to be stealthy here, and pick off his henchmen before taking on The Seed himself.
The Oak - Oegan Mac Cartaigh
All that remains after beating these two Order members is toprogress deep into the campaignof Wrath of the Druids. You must play through the main questA Scourging of Snakes,which is the second-to-last quest in Wrath of the Druids.
He serves as the main boss andleader of the Children,residing in theArmagh Fortress inUlster.Keep in the mind, you won’t be able to seek him out and kill him until reaching this part in the quest.

Children Of Danu - Separate From Quests
The following are the remaining Children which are located in different parts of Ireland and can beassassinated at any time after finishing the Potion of Blood quest.It’s a good idea to deal with the four Order members listed earlierfirst, as they’re intertwined with the campaign.Thenseek out these Order members, either late in the main quest, or after finishing it.
The Deer - Ruaidri, He Of The Ports
As for The Deer himself, he resides along thenorthern shoreline of Ulster Lakewithin the port ofInch Lough Neagh.Typically, he is found inside theenemy encampmentsthere. Killing this Order member will also unveil information aboutThe Seedas well asThe Spider.
The Spider - Aideen, Merchant Of Dublin
The clues are a good idea in this case, as The Spider wanders around the crowded Dublin market quite a bit. But usually, she can be found at the smallshop with the animal skins,or next to thesmall blue tent.
You could also climb to ahigh vantage pointin town and use Odin’s Sight to aid in pinpointing her location. This is also indicated by the enemy marker which shows her health bar when pointing a bow at her. She will be shown to actually beAldeen the merchant.
The Ash - Cummascach
The Ash herself is in theKesh Corann mines,which hold other enemies you’ll need to pick off or evade to reach her. Specifically, these mines are inConnacht’s Lough Gara,within a mountain range cradling thenorthwest side.
There will be abreakable wallthat doubles as the cave’s entrance. Throw atorchinto it to burn it down. Farther into the cave will be a smattering of crates. Smash them up, and head through the crack, where you’ll find The Ash and a poison-wielding fighter along her side. You can also findDruidic Breechesin this area.
The Whisper - Leasleach, Madwoman Of The Bogs
The Whisper can be a bit tough to find if you haven’t marked her location, as she roams amurky bog in the middle of Meath.However, you’re able to continue using Odin’s Sight, or wait for her to walk the main road that cuts through this area. A good place to start (if you don’t have all the clues) is to triangulate a spot at the bog betweenAnnagh Doo and Inchroe.
The Blaze - Conlae, He Of The Flames
The Blaze himself should be walking on the road fairly close to where you picked up the third clue. He is usually foundseveral dozen yards to theeastof this area. Yet some have reported that he pops up just outside the burned house when picking up the third clue. If this doesn’t occur — keep combing the road, using Odin’s Sight and track his location via the Order menu.
The Mist - Trian, He Of The Stone Circles
The Mist is found in thenorthwest corner of Ulster. Specifically, he resides on a small island namedDoon Fortat the very edge of Ireland.
