After her death, she came to the Lands Between and started hunting the Bloody Fingers. They are servants of the Lord of Blood and the main objective of the game is to kill all of them.
Yura can be found north of the Main Academy Gate Site of Grace. She has been tracking the Bloody Finger Ravenmount Assassin and needs your assistance to defeat him. She will leave behind a katana called the Nagakiba. Her special attack, Piercing Fang, causes blood loss and cannot be blocked.

Forge of Giants boss vs Commander Niall
In Forge of Giants, Commander Niall is a tough, optional boss that you must defeat in order to unlock the Forge of Giants’ final stage. Niall uses the power of lightning and frost attacks to deal massive damage. You can also use summons to pull aggro and do a lot of damage to Niall. You will need to upgrade your Mimic Tear summon to a +10 to deal with his summons. You can also use a Dual Greatsword to deal with his summons once they have been defeated.
There are three ways to beat the Forge of Giants’ Fire Giant boss. First, you have to defeat Morgott, the giant guarding the Great Erdtree. Once you defeat him, Melina will appear. She will give you the Rold Medallion, which will allow you to reach the Mountaintops of the Giants. Once inside the Mountaintops, follow the main path to the Forge of Giants.
Fire Giant – This boss is one of the hardest ones in Elden Ring. It is also the boss that requires Commander Niall in order to get Malenia, Blade of Miquella. However, it is still worth the effort, and the rewards are well worth it. If you are not a fan of fire-based bosses, you can use a Mimic Tear +10 to kill this tough one.
