Elden Ring contains many puzzles and secrets that we're all trying to solve. One of the early puzzles you will find in the Weeping Peninsula, which is south of Lymgrave. The tower can be found just west of the Castle Morne Ramparts Grace Site, is the Orydis Tower. Here is how to solve it.
Seek Three Wise Beasts
Upon arriving at the tower you will find the entrance blocked and a book stand at the bottom of the tower. Interacting with the stand will ask you to 'seek three wise beasts'. After interacting with this stand, if you turn around you will see the first wise beast. The wise beasts are turtle spirits, to 'seek' the beast, you will need to attack it and it will disappear.
The Second turtle is located to the left of the tower entrance when facing it. The turtle is hidden in the bushes here.
The third turtle is invisible and located in the pool of water to the right (east) of the tower. To find the turtle, you will need to pay attention to the ripple effect in the water and attack the center of it. You will see the turtle appear if you have successfully struck it.
What is in Oridys's Rise Tower?
After destroying the third turtle the entrance to the tower will no longer be blocked and you will be able to enter and climb to the top. At the top, you will find a chest containing a Memory Stone. These stones are used to increase your spell slots by 1. You do not need to equip this item, by simply picking it up, you will now have increased spell slots.
