Challenge Millicent or Assist Millicent (Miquella’s Haligtree)
Two summon signs will now appear on the land that encircles the rot pool where the Ulcerated Tree Spirit fight just occurred. One of these signs will allow players to challenge Millicent, while the other will allow them to assist her, and here are details on how those two options play out:
