Elden Ring has plenty of secrets tucked away in its massive world. The merchant NPC Pidia, Carian Servant is a prime example of that.
Pidia stays on the second floor of one of the buildings in Caria Manor. But you must go through the entire legacy dungeon and head to the adjacent Three Sisters area before finally getting to meet him. Here’s a detailed rundown of how to find Pidia.
Pidia location in Elden Ring
You first need to defeat Royal Knight Loretta in Caria Manor before you get access to the Three Sisters area at the back of the estate.
Once there, head south in the Three Sisters area until you see a part of the cliff edge that will drop you off on the roof of a Caria Manor building. The drop-off point is easily identifiable thanks to a Cerulean Scarab that spawns there.
Once on the roof, descend further using the wooden planks on the side of the building. Keep descending until you see an opening on the roof with a ladder. Get down, and you’ll see Pidia on the wooden balcony floor. This is just above the Manor Lower Level site of grace. Talk with Pidia to trade some useful knick-knacks.
NPC questline spoiler: Depending on your progress in Ranni’s questline, Pidia might not be alive when you reach this area. This happens when you retrieve the Nightslayer Blade from Nokron and give it to Ranni or if you betray Ranni by giving her Amber Draught as part of Seluvis’s questline. In that case, Pidia’s Bell Bearing will be in his place, along with one of the two Spirit Ashes—Nepheli Loux Puppet or Dolores the Sleeping Arrow Puppet—depending on whether you gave Seluvis’s Potion to Nepheli.

Pidia has a bunch of useful items in his inventory, including a Larval Tear and a Weathered Map that will lead you to an important item in case you opt to progress Seluvis’s questline. Here’s everything Pidia has in store:
