The wall is protected by 2 dogs and a hunter enemy. After getting to the other side of the wall, enter Umbral and talk with the Iron Wayfarer overlooking the cliff.
Laughter – This can only be earned while doing a playthrough where you are not cleansing the beacons. After defeating the Crimson Rector Percival boss, talk with Damarose the Marked near the Shrine of Adyr in Fitzroy’s Gorge to learn the laughter gesture. This gesture is bugged and doesn’t always unlock.
