Alfred’s quest
Meet Alfred at the altar outside the lower chapel in Cathedral Ward and agree to cooperate for Fire Paper. After nightfall he moves near the Forbidden Woods entrance. His later quest connects the Unopened Summons in Cainhurst to the Wheel Hunter Badge.
The badge is a specific quest reward, not something to expect from the first greeting. Giving Alfred the Unopened Summons changes what happens to Annalise, so finish the audience or Vileblood interactions you want before handing it over.
From the first meeting to Cainhurst
Speak at the lower-chapel altar and agree to cooperate. After Amelia and the altar skull turn the world to night, find Alfred on the route above the Forbidden Woods entrance.
Reach Cainhurst, defeat Logarius and wear the Crown of Illusions to reveal Annalise's chamber. Collect the Unopened Summons there. This is a different item from the Cainhurst Summons used to board the carriage.
Badge and the final meeting
Give Alfred the Unopened Summons at his Cathedral Ward location to receive the Wheel Hunter Badge. Reload the area and return to the queen's chamber for his next scene and dialogue.
After exhausting that conversation, return to Alfred's original lower-chapel altar and collect Radiance from his body. Annalise's remains can be recovered from her throne and later offered at the Altar of Despair after Ebrietas to revive her; her apparent death is not an irreversible end to every Vileblood interaction.
Questions
Where is Alfred first?
At the altar outside the lower chapel in Cathedral Ward, near the building with the lever that opens the route toward Old Yharnam.
How do I get the Wheel Hunter Badge?
Give him the Unopened Summons found in Annalise's chamber. Reach that chamber by defeating Logarius and equipping the Crown of Illusions; the carriage invitation alone is not the quest item he needs.
