Kill the Anointed.

To get the clue, you need to smash the Anointed’s body. I had an issue for this part.

The Anointed’s body wasn’t anywhere to be found. If that happens to you, exit the game to the main menu and log back in.

You’ll have to deal with the enemies here again but the clue is on the floor already.

Kill the Anointed Alpha

An Anointed Alpha will spawn right beside Dean’s cell.

The fight is quite straightforward. It does have a unique skill where it becomes shielded from attacks and spawns 2 or 3 duplicates.

To destroy his shield, kill the duplicates first. Once he’s not protected, keep attacking until he dies.
