BioWare includes various puzzles in Dragon Age: The Veilguard to give players some breathing space. Alongside these puzzles, the game also features several mini-games. One such game is The Path of Sighs Purple Torch mini-game. It takes place in the Necropolis Hall.

There are multiple purple torches hidden in that area. You have to find them all within a time limit of 1 minute and 45 seconds. Get the locations of all the purple torches in this guide and learn how to complete this mini-game in Dragon Age: The Veilguard effortlessly.

How To Start the Path of Sighs Purple Torch Mini-Game

This mini-game challenge will be available after recruiting Emmrich Volkarin and completing the Where the Dead Must Go story quest. Get to the Path of Sighs by using the fast travel beacon. Climb the surface by using the Stone Song ability on the Resonant Stone. Turn right and interact with the grave to initiate the mini-game.

A spirit conducts this game by scattering various bones throughout the area. Find 5 bones by investigating the areas marked with purple torches. Once you bring back the bones to the grave, the spirit opens a sealed door. You have only 1 minute and 45 seconds to complete this task.

Tip: The main hall contains 4 bones. But the area is heavily guarded by enemies. So, it is a wise choice to clear them before interacting with the grave to avoid disturbance during the mini-game.

Where To Find All Purple Torches

  • The spirit will direct you toward the first purple torch, located directly behind you near the statue. Investigate the bone to collect it.
  • Now enter the main hall and turn left. You will notice the second purple torch behind a pillar blocked by several wooden boxes. Destroy them and investigate the bone.
  • Climb the stairs to reach the top floor. Then, turn right and go to the platform at the corner. The third purple torch is on the platform. Investigate and collect the bone.
  • Jump down from the platform and go to the left corner of the floor. Investigate the scattered books near the fourth purple torch to find the bone.
  • Now, turn around and follow the pathway to its end, where you will see several jars near the fifth purple torch. Break them to collect the final bone.

Once all five bones are collected, head back to the grave and interact with it. The spirit returns and restores the skeleton. Follow the spirit to the sealed door on the right side of the main hall. It opens the gate, and you can now enter the room. Inside, you will find two treasure chests and Memento Mori Memento.
