via the main gates and through a hidden rear entry.

How to get to the Citadel through the main entrance?
The primary route to reach the Citadel is straightforward and suitable for players who prefer not to explore every nook. To depart from Greymoor, take the western exit, heavily guarded by Moorwing, a boss you’ll either need to defeat or circumvent by accomplishing a side quest for the flea caravan. This path leads you to Haunted Bellhart initially, then to Shellwood forest. Heading westward further will bring you to Blasted Steps, the last location before the Citadel. The main gate to the Citadel is located at the end, which can be opened using the Needolin skill – a skill you’ll acquire after defeating Widow in Haunted Bellhart. Activating these gates initiates an immediate confrontation with the Last Judge, the final boss of Act One. Upon victory over him, access to the Citadel is granted, marking the start of Act Two.
How to get to the Citadel through the back door?
In a less direct manner, the secretive route leading to the Citadel is not immediately apparent and demands cautious investigation. It’s hidden behind multiple hidden passages. Upon arrival in Greymoor again, be sure to avoid leaving via the western exit this time. Look for the Halfway Home inn right in the heart of the area. Ascend the tower on the left side, where you’ll find an elevator adjacent to the inn. This will lead you up a corridor that hovers above the inn, and eventually you’ll reach the elevated location known as Sinner’s Road.
The Sinner’s Road may seem like it has no end, but if you look carefully in the top left corner of the area, there’s a damaged wall that can be broken down. This hidden path will take you to The Mist, an enclosed location not marked on your map. Unfortunately, there’s neither loot nor resting spots here. Each room has multiple exits. To get through to the other side, you’ll need the assistance of fireflies, which are found in every room. When you’re close to the fireflies, play the Needolin for a short while. Once you do, the fireflies will start moving – follow them and they’ll guide you towards the exit from The Mist. Repeat this process until you leave the entire area.
Upon exiting The Mist, you’ll come across a small structure known as Exhaust Organ. At the culmination of this building, you’ll encounter Phantom, the initial act’s alternate final boss. After successfully overcoming her, you’re free to advance, and your journey will take a unique turn towards the Citadel, initiating the second act in an unexpected fashion.
