She also asks you to talk to Lady Hell once more. (if you took the witch path above, you need to have all 5 Witch's Medal in your inventory)
2. Talk to Depressing Man, Gen to enter to Lady Hell room. When you meet Lady Hell, she won't have much to say to you. 3. Next, go the Valkyrie Temple and talk to Sandra. She's happy that you can complete the quest, and proved your courage to God. She'll give you The Sign as proof that you are God's Chosen One. You'll be able to enter Valhalla with The Sign. 4. Go back to Prontera and pass The Sign to Metz. He's pretty excited when you pass The Sign to him and he is glad you completed the quest. He'll start to study The Sign.
5. After taking The Sign, Metz asks you to bring it to Engel Howard (mjo_dun02 88 295) to fix it.
6. Bring The Sign back to Metz. After he finds out the truth of The Sign, his wish is fulfilled. He will then give you 2,000,000 base EXP.
7. Bring The Sign and Sobbing Starlight to Gen (niflheim 146 241). Gen will warp you to his Master's room. Meet Lady Hell and pass the Sobbing Starlight to her. Then sit back and watch the fireworks display! After the fancy display, Lady Hell will give you Lucifer's Lament. (Lucifer's Lament is transferable, which means you may use it on any character.) 8. Go to the Geffen Fountain and click on it to enter Geffenia. The portal will open temporarily North of the Fountain, and anyone regardless of class, level, or having done the quest may enter it.
